My first plane trip when I was fifteen they asked me to remove any liquids/shampoos/lotions from my bag and when I opened my bag I saw my lotion had spilled all over my stuff and I said "Crap! It exploded!" Soon after I regretted my word choice as I got fearful stares from other people... The security guard knew what I meant though.
My dad once said a joke along the lines of 'put the bomb in that bag then' as a joke because one bag didnt have to go through scanning, and he got questioned for a long time. Also the same situation occurred when i was passing through security and i said 'dang shouldve put the bomb in that one' (didnt know my dad said something like this before) and the security guard searched all the bags, questioned me and my parents and eventually accepted it as a joke. Scary stuff
I love that Link says "It seems like something I would do" because I had already seen this episode quite a while ago and now I rewatch this episode. When I saw the title I couldn't remember whose story it was, but I also immediately thought it was Link lol. It really does seem like something he would do.
I would have been laughing if after the security guard said "SIR, WOULD YOU LIKE TO RETRACT THE STATEMENT?" Rhett would say "1. It was a question not a statement. 2. I ASKED YOU A QUESTION, SERGEANT!" xD
My dad get the "random check" every time he goes through security because he is so tall and suspicious looking. my mum had boots with little heaters in them on once and was almost arrested because security thought the wires were bombs in her boots.
When I was 17 I went on a youth trip to Texas. We were at the airport going through the security check, (this was post 9/11 by the way) and my pastor was having his carry-on searched. They opened the bag, and no joke, pulled out a hand full of bullets. Turns out his wife had packed his hunting bag by mistake and didn't take everything out. It was terrifying. I thought we were going to all be strip searched...thankfully we weren't!!
I like that guard's response. What a great way of saying "As a human I am massively compelled to use my own discretion at this moment but my supervisors strongly discourage this. Thus I am very irritated to have to do so."
airport security: *turns to rhett * would you like to retract your statement? Rhett: yes airport security: ah okay get on the plane. *turns to rhett’s girlfriend * would you like to retract your relationship ?
Back in the Day my Dad went through airport security and set off the metal detector. Security guard asked "do you have anything in your pockets?" My dad says "yeah, my Iron." (Used to call revolvers Irons in the old cowboy movies) The security guard got all uneasy as my dad reached into his jacket and pulled out a clothes iron. The guard laughed and then called out "Hey Fred, this guy's got an iron" Surprisingly a successful airport security joke.
I was at the Empire State Building a few years ago at like 1am (did you know that they close after 2am) anyway I went through the metal detector and it went off and the guy looked at me and said "are you concealing any weapons?" And I responded " no, braces and they are pretty dangerous" he laughed let me through and said " don't jump"
He should have been like "Nope". And then make his hand look like a gun and say "there ya go, a hand gun, bang bang". And then laugh, and then walk through.
The US TSA, seems to be the most overreactive airport security I've ever had to deal with. Britain and Australia are much more relaxed. They scale back things. America just keeps adding new rules, and never getting rid of dumb ones.
From what I’ve heard it’s because they want to make it as stressful as possible to make sure people don’t want to sneak anything in in the first place.
chibimidget Well this is terrible news, thank you for informing me before I went on and attempted to drive upon the water believing that surface tension would keep me afloat for at least a few days.
i recently i found your show, been watching every episode since, and every episode backwoards that seems interesting. really enjoying the show, keep at it! :)
When I was fourteen I went to Italy with one of my best friends, and as we went through the airport she said "hide your bombs" to me - and they stopped us and searched us and our bags and as it was a school trip we held everyone up😂
on one of casey neistats vlogs, he was talking to this guy before he got on the plane and he needed a visa to get on the plane, so when he got on the plane and was walking down the aisle, he saw the guy and the guy asked him: "Hey, did you get your visa?" and casey replied with: "Yeah, did you get your guns on the plane?" and then kept walking. XD
One time I managed to forget I had my switchblade comb in my pocket when I went to the airport. Thankfully, it was also Pre-911, so the security guard just opened it, saw it was a comb and laughed. It wasn't even confiscated.
At Philly International the TSA agent asked me to step out of line because the x-ray showed something suspicious in my carry on. He unzipped the side compartment and pulled out my flashlight. He asked me, "What is this?" I said, "A flashlight." He said, "OK.", and put it back. Didn't check it or anything. I had to bite back my natural sarcasm, because I wanted to say, "What if I was the flashlight bomber and you just gave it right back to me?!" I didn't say it.
I miss getting to walk people to the gate and seeing them onto the plane and especially getting to watch the plane take off. Planes taking off are awesome. This huge piece of metal seemingly defying gravity. Science is awesome.
One time, I was at the airport going through security and I called out to my friend across the room who was also going through security and I yelled "Did they find your gun?" and he gave me this concerned look as the security checked my bags a second time. So worth it.
"Would you like to see my handgun?" "Sir, would you like to retract your statement?" "Not really a statement but..." "You have the right to remain silent and refuse to answer questions. Anything you say may be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to consult an attorney before speaking to the police and to have an attorney present during questioning now or in the future. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed for you before any questioning if you wish. If you decide to answer questions now without an attorney present, you will still have the right to stop answering at any time until you talk to an attorney. Knowing and understanding your rights as I have explained them to you, are you willing to answer my questions without an attorney present?"
Yeah, the things that used to be acceptable at airports is crazy to think about. I remember being able to walk people through the terminal. That just seems so crazy today.
On an inland flight in China I got frisked by a chinese female security guard. I'm 1.94M tall, she had to stand on a raised platform thingy to do it properly xD
I did this before getting on a cruise, they had a sign that said no bombs with a picture of a grenade and like Rhett it just slipped out of my mouth and I said " Well it's a good thing i forgot my grenades". Luckily none of the security heard me and I didn't embarrass myself XD Love these videos
If you've ever been in a car for 18 hours straight with three other people in a normal sized car you'd think traveling but plane for a fourth of the time is sweet bliss lol
A couple years ago I didn't know that they did random selection security checks and they had selected me and I swear I had never been so scared in my life. I nearly crapped myself.
Last year, I got stopped, questioned and luggage checked because I share the name of a criminal they were trying to find! I was in Florida, I'm from the UK, just a casual family holiday to Disney and I was the one to get searched ha! Scary at the time.
I always come up with great jokes like that at the airport but then i chicken out and don't say them out loud, but i giggle weirdly and find myself very funny, inside my head i'm hilarious!
I'm about the same age as Rhett and I'm surprised he would've done this even pre-911. It was a very different world then, and imaginable that it would be funny, but I grew up with stories about how you never joke about weapons at security because it's a crime and will get you in a lot of trouble. I guess maybe he didn't fly very much as a kid, but it was kinda common knowledge even in the 90s that you could go to jail for making a joke about weapons at airport security.
I was once asked, at a DUI checkpoint, if I had drugs or illegal weapons in my vehicle. I said, "No, but I have 10 Mexicans in my trunk." The cop didn't think it was funny. XD It's not a crime to tell a joke. You can get into trouble for making a false report. There's a difference.
***** Ahh reminds me of a time at the Canadian-US border when I was asked if I had any illegal drugs in my car. "Not any more!" was somehow not hilarious to the DHS officer.
This winter, I was going to fly to wisconsin (from virginia) to see my mom. I had already missed my first flight due to TSA lines, so my second flight was a bit later. I walked through the metal detector and they said I had things on my wrists and ankles, so they had to pat me down. Since I had multiple spots on the detector screen, they also had to swab my hands. Due to the fact that I missed my earlier flight, I had to go to work with my dad and I decorated his office to pass the time. I got highlighter on my hands, the swab thing detected "explosives", I had to be taken to a separate room to be fully patted down, and since they found nothing, I was allowed to go to the plane. I almost missed my flight. Again. I was a 14 year old unaccompanied minor at the time. I HATE the tsa.
I was arrested and taken to the local police station because I had a scale that measures fish weight and the security Baird lady did not believe me and continually told that "it looks like some kind of wackin stick
Did you guys hear about the guy in POrtland who voluntarily got naked while going through the security check point? Just standing in line buck ass nekkid... Big bear of a guy, too! He was arrested for indecent exposure but was not convicted due to his actions being a from of protest and falling under free speech. I salute this man.
my uncle was subjected to a random experimental test to see if there were traces of explosives on ones hand, and its just a short, simple thing, but (hes a really funny, not afraid to go there with jokes) and when he walked over to the TSA agent, bent over in from of him and said "im ready" in a (sorry about this terminology but theres no good way to put it) in a gay-ish voice. it was quite funny.
"The question stands! NOT retracted!"
You wanna see my handgun or not?
+The doctor I watch Doctor Who over and over and over and over again besides what is your real name
YAAASSSSSSS i have a tardis pillow thst lights up and makes noise
"You wanna see my handgun or not?"
"You wanna see my handgun or not!" The question stands!" I lost it
"Would you like to see my handgun?" *holds hand out in the shape of a gun* "PEW, PEW!"
+Corndog Crusader I was imagining that!
Would you like parmesan with that?
H&M!
lol.
*slow clap of approval*
"nope" I started crying of laughter but it wasn't true
3:54 the way Link says "mmh... maybe" is hilarious
Lol
+Louellay :3
amazing.
Haha thank you for this comment, I missed it watching through XD
99.9% sure if you did that now you would be dead within the same sentence.

;D hehe interesting story
That is awesome
Stumbled upon this video after 8 years! Crazy how far they've come!

WillDuckett if it was post 9/11 then obviously thats why.
@mastouril or the person with the bomb is using reverse psychology, but your argument is also probable
Ahaha your family is great.

My dad get the "random check" every time he goes through security because he is so tall and suspicious looking. my mum had boots with little heaters in them on once and was almost arrested because security thought the wires were bombs in her boots.
Oh, god, it's been a while since I've laughed so hard during GMM, or any video for that matter.. :D
4:21
LMAO me too ... I kept laughing silently cause family is watching tv ...
Nope
this is still my favorite GMMore
When I was 17 I went on a youth trip to Texas. We were at the airport going through the security check, (this was post 9/11 by the way) and my pastor was having his carry-on searched. They opened the bag, and no joke, pulled out a hand full of bullets. Turns out his wife had packed his hunting bag by mistake and didn't take everything out. It was terrifying. I thought we were going to all be strip searched...thankfully we weren't!!
i was kept for an extended period of time at an airport untill the security was sure my protein shake wasnt drugs. they even tasted it
When i was like 6 lol the security guy told me to step aside because my capri sun activated the metal detector XD
XD
Theirradiation Excuse me let me just take my 40 cal out of my juice box
aww, it's kind of cute to think about.
Lol yeah XD
Ticncae lol
I like that guard's response. What a great way of saying "As a human I am massively compelled to use my own discretion at this moment but my supervisors strongly discourage this. Thus I am very irritated to have to do so."
airport security: *turns to rhett * would you like to retract your statement?
Rhett: yes
airport security: ah okay get on the plane. *turns to rhett’s girlfriend * would you like to retract your relationship ?
That awkward moment when on an airplane you exclaim "these peanuts are the bomb!"
Back in the Day my Dad went through airport security and set off the metal detector. Security guard asked "do you have anything in your pockets?" My dad says "yeah, my Iron." (Used to call revolvers Irons in the old cowboy movies) The security guard got all uneasy as my dad reached into his jacket and pulled out a clothes iron. The guard laughed and then called out "Hey Fred, this guy's got an iron" Surprisingly a successful airport security joke.
They guys are awesome! I am happy to have found them…really….not kidding!
THESE guys….i type too darn fast!
Greetings from Athens/Greece.
You guys are awesome, keep it up!
I think this is one of the funniest GMMs I've seen.
"Statement not retracted."
I remember when the funny guys used to say "Hi! Jack!!" really loudly at the airport.
HAHAHAHA I cannot change the font to make the letters large enough to show how loudly I laughed. Total belly laugh. Thank you guys everyday!
Link, Stun Rhett with the cane.
They've already stunned each other with the same cane.
Go search their main channel for that video "STUN GUN BATTLE"
I was at the Empire State Building a few years ago at like 1am (did you know that they close after 2am) anyway I went through the metal detector and it went off and the guy looked at me and said "are you concealing any weapons?" And I responded " no, braces and they are pretty dangerous" he laughed let me through and said " don't jump"
Don't jump?
Rose Watson I haz braces. THEY SUCK!
***** Yeah I know that is was probably just a joke.
Emilie Poulsen suicide is a great joke. i agree with you dude
Tehbigsexy What you said is disturbing. And NOT funny!
LOL..Link is so freakin' funny in this episode.
This beats trying to break into a stranger's car for Rhett's most embarrassing moment, hands down.
Haha the guy in the back! "Maybe you need a stun." XD
I had a cavity search at the Dentist office!
*****
Less funny
Kinda funny?
My Dentist is "Dr. DeKay" (no joke, but funny)
Link always does these things, he's more risky. I like it about him, much more stories to tell your grand kids when ur old
He should have been like "Nope". And then make his hand look like a gun and say "there ya go, a hand gun, bang bang". And then laugh, and then walk through.
When I'm at the airport, I like to plug my ears and back away slowly when they start checking my luggage. :)
i dont get it.
Goobz Gaming It's a bomb joke.
You are amazing.. Enough said. 😂
no you don't
*Not* advised. lol
The US TSA, seems to be the most overreactive airport security I've ever had to deal with. Britain and Australia are much more relaxed. They scale back things. America just keeps adding new rules, and never getting rid of dumb ones.
I wonder why 🤔🤔
From what I’ve heard it’s because they want to make it as stressful as possible to make sure people don’t want to sneak anything in in the first place.
This may be my favorite Rhett and Link video.
Travel by car from the US to Europe.
Cant. You need either ferry or plane.
Zetagame What? Cars don't function very well in the ocean?
Fellow
unless you're James Bond and have a car that can turn into a submarine.
chibimidget Well this is terrible news, thank you for informing me before I went on and attempted to drive upon the water believing that surface tension would keep me afloat for at least a few days.
Fellow
Easy mistake, bro. We've all been there.
This is one of my favorite episodes oh my god Rhett
I make my bad choices in life vicariously through Rhett. And then listen to him say "I don't advise or condone any of this!"
Cavity search? Nah, I brush...
I always love seeing the Camp Takota bracelet on the microphone!
Man, this cracked me up. I'm very glad you shared this story. :)
Liking Link's jacket
looking like Peter Rumancek
Haha. No...*whips out hand in shape of gun* lolol
Wheel suggestion :Rhett ask Link where baby's come from
for some reason the funniest GMM ive seen to date
i recently i found your show, been watching every episode since, and every episode backwoards that seems interesting.

Love the jacket, Link!!! You guys are awesome, just the way you are, without all the cooperate bs.

You guys are soo awkward that i love it!!!! :)

I've watched 3 episodes today and Link has been wearing the same shirt in all of them 😂
one of the funniest good mythical mores hahaha link had me rolling!!!
This is one of the funniest gmm more I've Eva seen!!

It's Friday and were starting with Good Mythical More first today morning from rainy 3am California :)
That makes 2 of us.
Rhett: You need to like slap me or something..
Link: *moves hand*
Rhett: DON'T!!
my mom went through security. they asked her "anything to admit?" she said "yeah, bombs knives, guns..." the security did not find it funny.
Yeah, the things that used to be acceptable at airports is crazy to think about. I remember being able to walk people through the terminal. That just seems so crazy today.
Lol "The question stands - not retracted."
"Would you like see my handgun?" Is a question, not a statement.
Link: Is this a subject change?
Rhett: Nope.
Link: Okay.
Rhett: It's just over.
Link: Okay.
You guys are amazing. Can't wait to listen to this week's podcast. ;)

That's a good one
This is one of the funniest Good Mythical More episodes I have seen.
I'm about the same age as Rhett and I'm surprised he would've done this even pre-911.

It's not a crime to tell a joke. You can get into trouble for making a false report. There's a difference.
***** Ahh reminds me of a time at the Canadian-US border when I was asked if I had any illegal drugs in my car. "Not any more!" was somehow not hilarious to the DHS officer.
***** That is hilarious Goddess.
This winter, I was going to fly to wisconsin (from virginia) to see my mom.
I had already missed my first flight due to TSA lines, so my second flight was a bit later. I walked through the metal detector and they said I had things on my wrists and ankles, so they had to pat me down. Since I had multiple spots on the detector screen, they also had to swab my hands. Due to the fact that I missed my earlier flight, I had to go to work with my dad and I decorated his office to pass the time. I got highlighter on my hands, the swab thing detected "explosives", I had to be taken to a separate room to be fully patted down, and since they found nothing, I was allowed to go to the plane. I almost missed my flight. Again. I was a 14 year old unaccompanied minor at the time. I HATE the tsa.
The question STILL stands
"Do you need to stun him?" ROTFL
1:05 LMAOOOOOO
I was arrested and taken to the local police station because I had a scale that measures fish weight and the security Baird lady did not believe me and continually told that "it looks like some kind of wackin stick
All the dislikes on this video are from the TSA agents.
NOT TRUE
........well, probably. I have no way to know, i'm not a tsa agent myself, just an airport security gal, but i did like the video.
Did you guys hear about the guy in POrtland who voluntarily got naked while going through the security check point? Just standing in line buck ass nekkid... Big bear of a guy, too! He was arrested for indecent exposure but was not convicted due to his actions being a from of protest and falling under free speech. I salute this man.
my uncle was subjected to a random experimental test to see if there were traces of explosives on ones hand, and its just a short, simple thing, but (hes a really funny, not afraid to go there with jokes) and when he walked over to the TSA agent, bent over in from of him and said "im ready" in a (sorry about this terminology but theres no good way to put it) in a gay-ish voice. it was quite funny.
Have you forgotten is a Daryl Worley song . . . That's AMAZING!!!
Maybe you should get rid of the stun-gun, because during "Lights Out" I was seriously thinking that Link was going to stun Rhett!
