And you thought your neighborhood was weird. Turns out even the airport has its occasional oddities.
A lady was caught at the airport trying to sneak in her luggage containing – you guessed it – the skeleton of her brother! Sealed in a plastic bag, she explained she was trying to fulfill the wishes of her brother to be buried in Italy (who died 11 yrs ago in Brazil).Seeing nothing wrong to stop them from boarding the plane (they had the required papers to transport it), she was allowed to take flight with her brother’s bones in her bag.
This is better read from the original source than said.

Samuel L. Jackson he is not. In Cairo in 2007, a man was detained for trying to smuggle 700 lives snakes on the plane. Hidden in cloth sacks inside his carry-on bag were a variety of snakes including poisonous cobras. He was charged for violating export laws as well as endangering the lives of his co-passengers.
4. Arf Arf! You’re fired!
Believing that 2 dogs in a Thai Airport were sexually harassing female passengers and frequently urinating on luggage, Mok and Lai, were given their papers and from bomb-sniffing dogs, they have been assigned to work on a farm herding chickens and pigs. The dog handlers were claiming this kind of behavior is due to their nature – as these dogs are stray and not the foreign breed.
5. Bo-bo-bo-bomb. Bomb.
Could it be because mom was standing beside him?
Seeing a suspicious looking object in his bag, Mardin Azad Amin was asked to explain what was inside his bag - and he dropped the B-word. As was the procedure, he was asked by the airport supervisor to repeat his answer, and turns out, Amin was just covering up for what was really inside his bag - a component for his penis pump! He admitted to lying about it because mother was just nearby. Now gentlemen, what would you choose? Admit to a penis pump and get a short reprimand from your mother (okay so maybe worst things could have happened, like the whole airport laughing at you), or getting convicted and serving 3 years in prison for disorderly conduct?
All in a day’s work at the airport.
