Aussie Flights Grounded by Dildo

It’s good to see that we here in the U.S. aren’t the only ones a might skittish lately.

The incident occurred at Mackay Airport in North Queensland when an unidentified male passenger threw the vibrator into a garbage can before boarding a flight to Brisbane, the Australian Broadcasting Corp., reported.

When the buzzing was heard, the entire terminal was evacuated and bomb experts were about to be summoned when the passenger came forward and explained what it was, said Acting Inspector Roger Lowe.

Haha - I bet he was thinking… “Don’t want to draw attention to myself, so…”

Somebody’s a Drew Carey fan.

Nine time out of ten, it’s an electric razor. But, every once in a while …

So security’s suspicion was aroused, the whole plane got off?

Pretty effective vibrator, I’d say.

And of course, it’s “a” dildo, not “your” dildo.

Turns on airport security”

Every single time I have thrown a dildo away, I turned it OFF first. I just don’t get these people.

Presumably he chucked it in the bin because he knew the regulations against putting other people’s stuff in your luggage.

Must’ve been one happy garbage can…
:smiley:

I’m sure I’ve seen this happen in a film…

I think it was Derek Smalls in Spinal Tap who set off the metal detector with the object located where his “package” should have been. Not quite the same, but similar humour I guess!
