I agree! This is an impossible task even if everybody was perfectly honest and never lied or purposely tried to conceal items! These Border Agents know they are only slowing down the inevitable fate of infestations being tranported around the world. With millions of people streaming through airport gates gates every hour it it's just a matter of time...! If these SMUGGLER'S are found trying to purposely hide food in their luggage, they should be sent back immediately... No Mercy!
When you travel, you may be able to buy souvenirs cheaper than in the country you live in, and if you're an international couple, there are foods you can't get in Australia. Everyone is free as long as they follow the rules.
Aussie here. I lived in China for ten years and developed a taste for authentic Chinese food. In Australia you can buy almost any Chinese / Asian ingredient you need, easily and inexpensively.

You can’t be serious. You do realized that the consumption of drugs has drastically increased since that show aired, right? They didn’t even put a dent in it. It’s like taking a few buckets of water out of a flooded house and patting yourself on the back.
Because so much stuff does get through! When I worked at Logan airport in Boston TSA would miss 89 percent of contraband items during random tests. And that could be anything from guns, ammo, knives, grenades, drugs. Kind of scarry flying on an airplane with that knowledge.
If the "customer" indicated FRUIT & Crackers/cookies, the officer would just say- never is fruit allowed, take it to be destroyed & he'd be on his way. But his rant was over the top. He deserved a fine.
He was probably having a bad day, not that serious dude. He declared his food. He said he has brought the fruit 5 times already and never had issues. Misunderstandings happen.
She is just doing her job. If he does not like it, it's just too bad. The supervisor was very linient and patient with an angry traveler.. I would not be so kind to the traveler.
Why do so many Australian customs/immigration agents not wear gloves while rummaging through people’s suitcases of dirty clothes or performing a frisk search? So gross and disgusting 🤮
Most of the western countries employ fake sense of security, which makes you feel safer but not actually safe. However, I have seen them wearing gloves in other videos.
@@centurione6489 I have been a medical professional for almost 4 decades and am very familiar with wearing gloves all the time. People take gloves off after a task is done and put on new gloves if what they are doing requires it. I have never seen a surgeon colleague not wear gloves when they operate on a patient and I have never witnessed a surgeon wearing the same pair of gloves the whole day while operating on different patients. You take them on and off as needed to not contaminate someone or something. Rummaging through dirty laundry or doing a frisk search without gloves is disgusting.
It's crazy how it's a red flag to travel with no actual plans for customs. I travel a lot to many countries and I never have an actual plan. I'm a go with the flow kind of tourist. Maybe I should start making an itinerary from now on lol😅
Gee, many years ago, the 1970s 😱lol, I would have been in trouble. A work friend and I decided to fly, straight after work from Melbourne to Sydney for the night just for fun. We booked tickets a few days before. Flew up, walked around Sydney, stayed at the Hilton, seperate rooms. Caught plane home, I drove us straight back to Melbourne in time for work lol. That’d be suspicious today.
Stone fruit guy is so persistent in proclaiming his sense of outrage that he's going to argue and shout his way into a fine, or worse. The quarantine officers should have so kindly fulfilled his clear request for as such...
I wonder if that Cubic Zirconia was a dry run to test a new method to smuggle REAL diamonds through? After all, Marylin Monroe never sang "Cubic Zirconia Are a Girl's Best Friend"!
I have traveled to mainland China, and that’s how people talk AT each other, even when there are no conflicts. But, when there are problems, their motto is, “he who shouts the loudest wins the argument.”
The argumentative traveller was playing up for the camera. If he had simply shut up and listened to the customs officer he would have been cleared and on his way within minutes. 🤷
Don’t they scan, check and look to see if someone looks over padded? Der @ me, Aussie here, I’m tired and was going to ask you - oh Do get this on American TV? Lol - we are on TH-cam - I need a nana nap lol. 😂
"...anything that goes in your mouth..."?!?! So toothpaste, toothbrush, (...don't wanna talk explicit bedroom matters here, but you get where I'm going),... is food, in Australia, right?
19:00 "why would someone go to all this trouble" Trouble of what? Opening a magazine and taping the bag to the inside? I'd pack it the same way, so there's some buffer on teh outsides in case they get scratched when thrown around.
I know from this show, what to bring and what not to bring, i think every country should have a show like this. Did you know Australia has food. I don't understand all the food people pack. I understand you like certain foods, if people are that picky then they shouldn't go. People go on vacations to try new foods and customs, it's an experience. I have never been, but I'd love to go to this beautiful country, one day. So i have learned check what you can or can't bring so you are not finding yourself in trouble with a fine. By the way your fines are in my opinion too low in some cases.
The chinese guy is not entirely wrong since he have declared food. He was confused since he was allowed to bring the mushroom earlier trip. Feel his frustration. But he should just let it go. You cannot win against the custom officers.
I've seen many videos of this channel, most of them are from Chinese, Vietnamese, Malaya, origin, these people play the game without having common sense, Getting into a English country w/o knowing English knowledge, that too travelling alone; and accompanying conterband goods. They think they are so wise enough that they can pass thru the customs by their innocence and talking in their mother tounge.
In the past, I went to Europe, Thailand a few times. I travelled almost every year. Over there , I just walked around t here and there , not to see a particular place because I wanted to feel different atmostfere
how they get thru body scanning machines omg then do a body search they find out seem the body scanning not working properly sometimes anyone can make a mistake on food products from a long flight thats normal the asian come here to work simple as that send him back
Since the man lied about the food, they should take ALL the food, no matter if they are approved. Also, raise the fine!!
Buddy this episode aired 20 years ago

That one guy trying to protect his reputation and image may want to try not acting like a impatient toddler when he doesnt get his way
The argumentative Chinese man, didn't have a bad day.
The custom officers soft approach gave him the courage to argue till the end.
I can't imagine carrying groceries through customs. Guys, Australia has food there.
Ikr it amazes me esp wt the reputation places like China has in regards to quality of the food oftentimes

Agree no more 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼the supervisor is too timid 🙄
That first dude is getting on my nerves. I would of fined him $5,000 just for doing that.
Those swords are BEAUTIFUL.

Have you ever worn those gloves for extended periods of time? The skin becomes shredded.

Don’t argue with them. They can’t argue if you don’t respond. Simply say this is what we will do. Back off and let us do our job. Period.

Poor Cheng…he looks desperate. :/ I couldn’t do this job. My emotions would be too caught up.
You can't even get away with carrying anything INSIDE YOUR BODY, I don't know why people still risk it.....
Seriously? Because 90% of it DOES get in. They want you to think it’s much much less and to dissuade anyone else by airing these shows.
Grown man throwing a tantrum for his own doing. 😅
The youmg man doesn't need an interpreter - he answers in Chinese but understands the questions without help.
They cut the part where the interpreter repeats it back
I LOVE IT WHEN PEOPLE WITH HEAVY ACCENTS ARGUE, NO ONE CAN UNDERSTAND ANYTHING
This guy not declaring is nonsense!
I wish the USA was this strict.
Don’t they scan, check and look to see if someone looks over padded? Der @ me, Aussie here, I’m tired and was going to ask you - oh
Do get this on American TV? Lol - we are on TH-cam - I need a nana nap lol. 😂
"Quarantine officers define food as anything that goes in your mouth..." Hmmm, really?
Lol
I can't help but think that the package with the cubic zirconium was a test run - like they said.
The senior office lady is absolutely gorgeous! And so profesional.
Please Australia would you tell Asia we have plenty of food for them in Australia. They won’t starve.
Absolutely unfortunately they are not getting the message or may be they have money to launder well that's the impression they give
He is Chinese
We have so much food? Why are food increasing in prices?
Love your attitude about this bag and not caring about what people will say. kislux You are right keep your head up and no your priorities.
some one needs anger management therapy
I like how cool the quarantine officer is with the irritating guy
The crystals scene really intrigued me! Very fascinating!
The quarantine guy needs to keep his hands back. He’s not helping defuse the situation. Also you’ve got two guys not listening to each other.
Do some people not understand what an xray machine does?? Unbelievable they think they are going to get away with it

Wow never thought I'd see No Neck Ed's brother.
Those are definitely ornamental swords. I've got much deadlier box cutters.
And it would be IMPOSSIBLE to grind those metal edges in to anything resembling a lethal weapon. Thank heavens.
Unbelievable the amount of food at the airport
The *yews*got away with swords. xD
I like these stories but I wish they would just finish one story at a time and quit jumping around
One of your lady officer looks weird with headscarf.
Look like a very old and worn tea towel😅
14:00 maybe language barrier or just entitled. Omg. 😲
Entitled or maybe neurodivergent
14:16 guy con the custom from not having to pay fine.
Britain would not have allowed those swords in!
Customs in Australia are the best. They are very polite. I salute them 🎉🎉🎉🎉

He could be lying.
first time I ever saw an Asian Karen! LOL
that drug trafficker was just a decoy, somebody in the ring tipped the customs off, there was somebody else who actually smuggled the drugs
My,too.Watching everery night
Who checks in their backpack, that's ridiculous.
You might want to find out who the past several immigration officers allowed the stone fruits in and put that on their records. Consistency is key.
Holly .... $40k without tax is higher than one year of me working
Thanks to officers
I can tell by the hairstyle in this episode that this is from the late 90s to early 2000s
1:15
The man is a ‘liar’.
He lied ‘last time’ too.
Sheesh
@ Good job , Border Security , From America
The passenger is right Food is food customs must specify what food isn't allowed
Poor guy, spent all that money for a job, and now no job.
"Dangerous weapons".....
I ❤ This Show!
He’s damaging his personality himself….he needs to shut up ffs 🤦🏼♀️
Someone needs to open a Chinese market in Australia.
I hate how indignant some of these passengers are. You brought in a banned item. Fines should be required. Sorry not Sorry.
If the Zircons were not sent at the document rate they would not be worth sending.
Tell them going to the his country of them ! Thanks
Too much drama with customs officials. That's why Australia is 90% EMPTY ..Barron lands galore..Why?😢
Troubler speaks too much >_
None has time to read that quarantine pamphlet
Yes they do, plenty of hours to read on aeroplane flights to Australia!! And, also info is on line as well as travel agents in country of origin.
How entitled they become after obtaining an Australian passport!
why do people have so much problem understanding what food mean
Why are you posting videos filmed in 2005?
Good lord, how old are these videos????? The computer on the desk is running Windows XP 😢
