    One thing I learned watching airport security documentaries is that you can take large amounts of cash with you, but the important thing is you have to declare the amount you're carrying if it's $10,000 or more. It's as simple as that.

    • @Jake12220
      @Jake12220 6 лет назад +8

      Kinda... First up if you take more than $10k into another country then u might get taxed or fined a percentage of the amount if you do declare it and u might lose it all if you don't. Second if you carry a lot of cash you may be required to justify why you have it and if they aren't happy with the answer they may confiscate it. Lastly be careful in certain parts of America as cops can confiscate large amounts of cash and claim it is being used for drugs or other illegal activities and then you have to prove it's not. The stupid thing is that they charge the money with the offence not you so you don't get any legal protections including innocent until proven guilty (its possibly the most corrupt law in America)

    Airport security has gone waaaaaay too far. I travel all the time and found the TSA to be simply security theatre. It gives the travelling public the illusion that they are doing something, and henceforth giving them a false sense of security. It has created a whole industry (security) where a few insiders have profited immensely. I naively believed after 911 that things would go nuts for a short period of time, then logic, reason and sanity would take over and things would go back to normal.
    Flying has become about as painful as root canal, and it’s only gotten worse since then.

    In 2001, I flew from Jamaica to Heathrow with my older sister. I was dressed up, she looked like a ragamuffin. She also has a penchant for smoking dem Jamaican special herbs! Anyhoo, we got to Gatwick customs, and all the staff were eyeing her up, I knew she had smoked some whilst there and was hoping she has no traces on her. I had stomach cramps from wearing tight trousers on the flight and not eating BA’s poor attempts at food. Anyways, we get to declarations and the guys pulls my sister over, I say something, he asks if we are travelling together, I say yes, he says you too! I say my stomach hurts I wanna go home (I was walking doubled over my trolley), he looks at me, and we pass through no harm!
    I surprisingly was allowed to carry a large vase with flowers through Schipol. They laid it on the conveyor belt water came out, I stood it up, told them I’d forgotten to empty the water and they let me take it through, probs was a litre of water in it. This was in 2007, but still around the time of 100ml and clear bags!
    In 2009, I worked as a contractor at Heathrow and had a scalpel in my work case, as I did artwork on the side, it made it through the scan. I kept schtum!
    An aside:
    People make sure you claim YOUR bag! 2011, got off a flight from Portugal to Gatwick it was 11pm or so, picked up ‘my’ bag walked to the point of no return, realised ‘my’ bag was not MY bag. The guy who saw me bring it though would not let me go back in. I had to find someone it took ages, and this was a ‘dirty bag’. They did not want to take it back, I was at the point of nearly dumping it in the bushes, so I could go back and claim my bag. They scanned it, hummed and ahhhed, and even asked me what the things inside were (I was getting the impression they did not understand the term “I picked up The wrong bag”). After an hour, they took the bag off me, I was wondering if my own bag was still in baggage claim. I was finally allowed back in and my bag was the sole occupant in the place, sitting in the middle of the floor. We luckily caught the last train home! Phew!
    BTW, I travelled through Schipol this year and had a stressed week leading up to my flight, I didn’t really give a shit anymore, and amazingly met the friendliest security staff ever! They were polite, friendly and had a sense of humour.

We aren’t walking stiffs or emotionless robots. We are human beings. I joke with passengers all day long.

    In my opinion airport security has not gone too far, they're mostly just searching for the wrong things. I have experienced it to be really inconsistent considering different locations/countries. For example, in Paris (CDG) they took away all of my halva spread (israeli sweet that wasn't even liquid) even though I bought it in the duty free shop and it was a connecting flight. I was actually eating it but they considered it as dangerous. Meanwhile in Istanbul (SAW), we forgot to take out a whole refilled 1,5L plastic bottle out of our carry-on, which we didn't realize. But even worse: Security Staff did not either. So yeah, you get my point haha.

    I once had a Magic Eight Ball I was bringing home with me when I was 12. They took it out and asked me some questions. I didn't know what they were asking me at the time, but now I just think that moment was kinda funny.

    I travel a lot for work. I have several prescriptions that I take on a daily basis. I always keep them in a daily pill container, without the prescription bottle or any evidence of prescription. I never get pulled aside, and I never have them confiscated. I guess I'm just lucky. Either that, or the number of pills I'm bringing isn't enough to trigger them.

    Had a lightsaber I got as a souvenir in my carry on one time. The TSA questioned me what the "blunt object" was that I had in my luggage. By the look in that agent's eyes and his tone of voice, I knew he thought I had a vibrator in there.

    I always wondered why the TSA always pulls me aside. I have a fear of flying to the point that I’m usually crying before I’m even on the plane. (Not screaming but still.) I always just took it as another reason to hate flying, but now I at least know why they do that. Won’t stop it from being annoying though...

    I never ride a plane before. But I do ride a ferry. It was the worst security ever. When I was around 9, I brought a knife toy the butterfly knife but the knife wasnt sharp at all and it is made out of plastic. My parents was suspended by the security guards and know I lost my butterfly knife toy.. But atleast we still be able to ride the ferry!

    Ha, the TSA is a joke. I flew with my uncle who is in the FBI and without showing his credentials he walked through with his service pistol, and no one caught it. He spoke with supervisor about the breach. Not to mention the TSA failed over 90% of their safety checks in 2016.

    This is exactly why you don't make videos about things you don't know... TSA does not care about coffee.. they don't care about large amounts of cash... kids are not suspicious.
    It is not TSAs job to find drugs.. this is why people think TSA is so incompetent.. "oh I got my bag of weed by them" no, they seen it.. they just don't care because it's not their job. That is Customs job.
    The whole cash thing is.. it is illegal to carry 10k in cash out of the country. So if you're at an international airport or a connecting flight to one... it's a red flag. They also don't care about your Rx pills. Now when it comes to harder drugs like coke.. although they don't care for them.. if they see it, they have to report it.
    TSA does different things than Customs which anyone from out of the country will ask when checking in a firearm... why do I have to get it checked by Customs and TSA.... it's because both agency's do and look for different things... otherwise, there would only be one agency there.

      lankyeric Great job explaning it. You should have made the video. I can't believe they got this so wrong. It is more like they took it as a joke. I also watched the other airport security video. It looks like The Infographics show mixes up the difference between customs and the TSA.

    I've been pulled aside sometimes for thorough searching and, honestly, while it's uncomfortable, they do this to create a safe and secure flying experience for us, the passengers. I'd rather be searched twice than risk having a terrorist on board or other criminal activity.

    *Security Before 9/11.*
    *Before 9/11 you were allowed to do almost anything you wanted to on the airline.*
    *So much has changed involving air travel since the September 11th attacks although, it’s still cramped, sounds the same and planes have become more crowded, the time leading up to boarding has changed significantly.*
    *The biggest change people agree on is security at the airport, you did not have to take off your shoes, belt or even throw away your drink.*
    *Passengers said they remember seeing the cockpit door open during flight before the attacks, It wasn’t uncommon for children to be called to the cockpit to get a glimpse of the controls.*
    *A decade ago there was not an undercover armed officer in the plane, you only had to show ID when you were checking in.*
    *Only two questions were asked: Did you pack your own bags have your bags, been seen outside your control, you could bring sharp objects on the plane such as, pen knives, box cutters, and sharp scissors.*
    *All you had to do was arrive minutes, before the flight and you wouldn't have to rush to get on family or friends, could accompany you to the gate and say farewell.*
    *Some planes had weak cockpit doors that broke easily, they also didn't scan all of the luggage.*
