It's actually quite the opposite. If a con is accused of a crime he don't become aggresive, he become silent. And when anyone would accuse innocent person of smth crazy he would usually go quite aggresive, because he knows he is right.
I travel overseas for work. My bags get searched often, somtines it’s random pulled out of line. Complying makes the process move along, being an adult makes it relatively pleasant.
She complied but after 3 hours was understandably upset as nothing productive seemed to be going on. And like officers anywhere they raised the inconvenience level out of spite.
What you do is when they start doing the cavity search act like you're enjoying it. I assume at some point something is inserted into places most people don't want things inserted, just close your eyes and say "mmmm yes"
She has a reason to be upset. She was held for over 2hrs. They got no positive hit and still sent her for an internal search to be spiteful, because she was getting loud with them.
Just flew back from Vegas to Florida. We had all the coins from the casino ticket redemption machine in our carry on luggage in a quadruple packed plastic grocery bag. It was a LOT. Our bag got booted off the conveyor for a secondary search by TSA. The officer opened up the bag and asked us "What's this?" before he picked up the bag.

"Well, at least you won something" Priceless, and we all had a really good laugh. Respect these officers and everything will be OK. They are there to protect.

She could have a medical condition and not know it. Low B12 causes irritability. I'm familiar with it from my experience with pernicious anemia. The irritability is extreme and irrational.
a) Suspicion and evidence are different things. b) Having a bad attitude is not a crime. I don't like her attitude one bit, but she should have been free to go.
Tired people USUALLY react aggresively when delayed from resting, especially from being cramped up in the modern Flying Sardine Cans they call commercial passenger planes for HOURS on end(and no, they dont like you getting up to strech your legs as the AISLEWAYS are way to skinny) 3 hours for baggage inspection is WAY to much.

Getting upset doesn’t really help with anything. However being held at the airport for 3 hours and then having to get an internal body search sounds like a nightmare if you’re just traveling and not doing anything illegal.
@@sushimamba4281 So? I think we can agree that she was really upset and not a very agreeable passenger, but how would you feel? I wouldn’t be thrilled either: To be held for hours after spending a day traveling, being accused of committing a crime, when you’re exhausted and just want to go home. The internal search is going to add a lot more time, regardless of it “just being a scan”.

Her attitude only makes it worse..I was checked thoroughly at Heathrow by French customs for suspicious items..I had to laugh because I had Christmas fruit tarts with icing sugar spilled and money boxes from Windsor castle looked like bombs. The day Saddam Hussain was caught..I totally understood the reaction..
@@shirleyjenkins11 this is true. I have been pulled at Heathrow for special screening as well, from the waiting area at the gate, alongside with a few other people. They took our passports away, which was the scariest thing to me. And led us into a secluded waiting room, where we were left for quite some time. Once they returned, they separated us, we had to unpack our whole hand luggage, got swiped for drugs or explosives I guess and got questioned petty firmly. We also got patted down again. It was extremely uncomfortable because the TSA or security doing this were extremely rude and were treating us like we did something wrong. Everybody was very cooperative, but that didn’t change the behavior of the people in charge. This all took a very long time and we almost missed our flights. By the time they returned our passports and escorted us onto the plane, everybody on board was already seated and gave us the stink eye, because we had delayed the plane. I suffer from strong anxiety anyway, but traveling always takes me to my limits. My husband and I live in the US and my family lives in Europe, so I have to travel in order to see them. This really worsened my issues with traveling, because I know that even though I do nothing wrong and cooperate fully, there is always a chance to get into scary situations like this. Thankfully it’s not always like this.
@@BoingMediaGroup she started shouting at them from the very start, making their work THAT MUCH HARDER. Being compliant means speaking as well as listening, not only speaking. She was barely listening and mostly ranting and raving. I'm just impressed neither of the officers started having a yelling match with her.
Well, you're not bi-polar. (I fundamentally agree with you. I am also bi-polar and there are triggers that happen and we lose our minds. Not fun to be thus).
The officers concealed their anger very well, but it did affect their judgement. Their suspicion based investigation produced zero evidence, and still detained the woman. This is not right.
Was it really 3 hours though? Karens have a special time bending ability where a 5-minute wait becomes half an hour so easily. Also, her 300 Argentinian pesos which her suit case cost were 150 Australian dollars according to her, where a currency converter tells me that 300 Argentinian pesos are actually about 0,50 Australian dollars. That suit case was a bargain, even if it was kind of falling apart on the inside.
I usually find very nice bags near the recycling bin and even though i am always tempted to bring it home i always tell myself "Forget it. God knows what the heck that still can have inside "
There is a saying do not take or touch something that is not yours. Even the bag is given to us, it should be examined and the motive of such gift should be think of.
Many years ago, mom was the observer of the x-ray screen at an airport. In a suitcase she saw some electronics surrounded my some coiled material. The guy said he'd open it. He was immediately surrounded by security. Turns out he was an exotic dancer. The suitcase contained his boa snake and a heater.
The irate woman may have been annoying, but any behavioral analyst would know that her actions were the behaviors of an innocent person. When you know you are innocent and not carrying any drugs, you do expect that to be concluded within 3 hours. Sending her for a body scan, when their suspicion was her suitcase, really was just punitive regarding her behavior. It is very difficult to be a senior citizen traveling all day. She was just tired. Most of her aggravation could have been averted if someone offered her a chair.
I didn't see the lady during the first or second hour of her detainment but I've gotta say, after two or three hours of trying to prove I hadn't done anything, I'd be pretty salty too. They went through her things and found nothing. They went through the suitcase and all they found was that she had been seriously overcharged for her bag. They did an invasive body search; still nothing. And y'all are saying that SHE was the problem? She should have spoken to an attorney.
I always overdress going into the USA: float through though age helps as well. meanwhile, they're detaining and inspecting everyone before and after me!!!
I saw this women in another UA-cam trying to get from Canada into the United States. She was as rude then as she was now. The custom officers refused admission and sent her back to Canada.
I can totally see how a cheap suitcase might be repaired and sold as new in somewhere like Argentina. Little do they know the problem this would cause.

@darrellandsondraholden9457 After rippng through the lining of the case, they'd have also had a sniffer dog round it... they searched the contents of the case... they then searched the cavity of the lady... Which bit did they possibly miss to search? Where else is it possible to hide drugs? She could have swolled some.. however, this doesn't solve the weight of the case? The bars (cage) of the case could have been filled. However, they noramlly drill the poles if a dog alerts. So, with all that being said.. where are the 'hidden' drugs?
@@susannebrunberg4174 You can't blame Australians. It is unimaginable what happened to their brains after they spent their entire lives upside down. That is why they talk funny and sound like they suffer from permanent nasal congestion. The brain damage probably explains why Australians are so gullible if they think a five-minute story of a couple of new arrivals should be treated as a serious event when dragged out to twenty minutes of repeating the same few sentences.
Everyone else has a job to do. And all u do is think of yourself maybe you oughta stay home if interaction with people troubles you so much. Airport can be boring but u could find a bench and.

The lady said she'd been waiting for 2 to 3 hours. Yes, she should be passed. I would be too. If there's something, show it, if there's nothing, why keep digging and digging hoping to find something that's not there. People who point fingers at her, should listen carefully. Up to 3 hours waiting is a disgrace!
In most countries she'd have been pulled off to behind a curtain and had the indignity of having her cavities inspected by a gloved finger. She just experienced an electronic scan.
@@rossmacintosh5652 Oh for sure. Yeah could have been worst but I'd almost prefer the cavity search to waiting at a hospital for 12 hours. Especially after just getting off a plane.
@@RobertWest-i8p More likely just a psychotic who should only be allowed to travel whilst suitably restrained and under care. Either that or she was running interference to draw officers away from checking for the real smuggler.
Yep. It's False Imprisonment, IMO. It takes the same amount of time to process a Drug Dealer who has been charged and these people are mainly innocent - including that Woman. Disgusting and incompetent.
Excuse me, but I'm a bit confused. The woman who was detained for several hours and appeared to be quite frustrated was actually innocent? Her emotional reaction may have given the impression of guilt and contributed to the extended detainment, but I'm curious as to why it took so long to determine that there was no issue.
She probably did need her cigarettes. Likely tired from travel, could be hungry. And yes frustrated because she apparently was held up when she knew she had no drugs.
Michael, you didn't do enough to calm down the out of control woman. You walked away and left a regular staffer to deal with the harassment. That is not a good manager. He should have stayed there until the situation was solved. Letting this smoker go have a supervised smoke would have gone a long way to have de-escalated the problem.
My kids visited Australia and brought back a didgeridoo and a boomerang to South Africa. When they went back to live in Australia they couldn’t take their souvenirs back into Australia. Understandably the items could have been invaded by ‘beasties’ while they were in south Africa. I’m happy they now decorate my home
Not sure of your information there. Usually wooden items (not growth viable) can be imported but after declaring them you will be given the option (at your expense) of having them radiated/treated to make sure no live organisms are hitching a ride.
Quite amusing that two countries that would claim to be beacons of freedom, are renowned for having the most 'difficult' customs officers, US and Australia. I always wondered why the Aussies are so scared of importing alien stuff, the place is full of aliens.
I have a new appreciation for how these officers are treated by the public (over and above the important job they do!)! When did it become acceptable to treat others like this? Effing and blinding and having little tantrums?? Just COOPERATE and let them do their jobs!!!
I have a life's rule, when I go to a restaurant I never argue or shout at the waiters or cooks for obvious reasons, and I never argue or insult customs officers when entertaining or leaving a country at the customs check. When their shift is over, they go home and another shift starts, and you're still arguing, but with the new shift officers.
I've seen a very rude passenger arguing and making a scene at the immigration counter at an Asian airport. He was told to step aside while the counter served the visitor behind him. He was standing aside and making a ruckus and ignored by the immigration staff. After about 20 minutes he was begging and apologising saying he's going to miss his flight. It wasn't a case of language difference, it was about respecting authority when in a foreign country.
Lets show up with a suspicious bag and then kick off the conversation with "I'm not a drug dealer", that's the best way to get through customs quickly.
As an American, it's crazy to see a woman yelling at the cops and the cops not shutting her down by pointing that she is obstructing their investigation which could result in additional charges.
The customs people showed no sympathy or respect for her understandable agitation, and were all a bit complacent - it is not they who are already exhausted after a long flight home. I would hate to be detained for nothing in my own country!
The woman calls the guy rude, both agents calm, cool, and collected..very professional, woman on other hand..complete nightmare..The young lady with beads, very cordial, showed great respect, her encounter, very professional all around. Glad it worked out for her.
"Grumpy Clarinda Gives Michael Major Attitude. Michael Has His Mates Give Her The Thorough Body Cavity Search Treatment." Another amusing episode from the Australian Civil Service humor series...
Do you think it helped not to? This was after 3 hours of being held for nothing. Everybody has a breaking point. Her frustration was completely understandable. Most people hating on her here in the comments, have acted worse for less, but in situations that they themselves feel are justified, because it happened to them.
Hold up these customs officers for 3 hours and just all things and hope something sticks up. This was sick behaviour from public servants. We are becoming like US. Kudos.
14:40 "She's been detained" Good. For her additude alone, she needs a bit of a life lesson on kindness and how far it can get you...Even if she never learns it...I am glad she was told she was being detained.
Customs playing a power game with this Lady just because they can. I know being upset does not help but please 3 hours for checking a bag just because they can?
@@Nick-gu2xb I’m not a smoker, but it all clicked when she said at 18:31 that she just wanted to get out of there and have a cigarette. Ah, bingo! Then her increasingly unhinged behaviour began to make a whole lot more sense. I sure wouldn’t want to be anywhere near her if she ever decided to stop smoking, though.😱
The older lady has a valid point. THREE HOURS searching her bags and then detain her after finding nothing for getting upset. I would be upset as well!!
Maybe if she had her bags a little bit more organized, and her attitude adjusted. They're just doing their job and the way she's acting it looks like she definitely was hiding something
Couple of thoughts regarding the disruptive woman. First, raging like that never helps your cause. Second, we are only seeing a small portion of the overall interaction. She claimed to have been detained for 3 hours. Perhaps some of her reaction was justified? Lastly, did you catch her saying that she just wanted to go and have a cigarette? After a long flight from Argentina to Australia…and then several hours in customs…her agitation was elevated from nicotine deprivation. So much more to her story than was represented in this video.
Yes, that lady clearly was having a withdrawal reaction and needed a smoke. If they'd let her do that, she would've calmed down. The whole situation was absolutely ridiculous, and I can't believe they detained her and examined her for absolutely nothing.
@@larsnystrom6698 We did not see the first hour. She might, just might, have been calm and waiting for the officers to so their job. And waiting. And waiting.
@@cissiepierce664 ok I will detain you for 3 hours when you’re tired, hungry and thirsty, nothing justifies a hostile reaction right? Wannabe good guy on the internet.
So the woman with the suspect luggage. No drugs, she was physically examined at a hospital no drugs so what is her recourse? Hours of hold up probably missed connecting flight?
Detaining someone for hours when nothing is found, and making the person have to go to hospital for a search? I wonder if this person sued? Or is this just a drama with actors?
Commendable effort from the lady trying to explain to her that she has to go to the hospital for the search. Promote this girl. You have to have a heart of steel dealing with passengers like this. Oh my! It that's me I'd surely lose it.
The lady rose my blood pressure just watching her as a child having a tantrum. She drew so much attention to herself. If only she was compliant and worked cordially in a calm matter, the time spent there would of been quick and less invasive. I understand 3 hours is a long time, but I would never accept a brand new band taped up like that. I don't think it was brand new, as she couldn't find the receipt. Yelling and cursing the officer is unacceptable, why didn't she get fined, is beyond me!!!
The reality is that this screening is for the general traveling public. There is another part of an airport where travelers are not subject to this type of scrutiny.
After having been intimidated by a particularly nasty individual, my son who is in security told me that they target older women - especially white haired women - to scare others on a flight who may be carrying something illegal. He claims that they watch the reactions of other passengers. I’ve not flown since, nor will I ever risk that humiliation again.
She was on a transpacific flight so that is a 14 hours flight and probably she took a connector to get to Buenos Aires which could be another 5-6 hours. So she might have been nicotine-less for 20 hours. However, she should have gotten some nicotine gum.
They cavity searched that lady and found nothing on her body or her belongings, and you people commented 0n her manners? They humiliated this lady and ruined her trip, and damaged her mind. What the f do you expect her to do? Say, thank you in a way that you approve?
I feel sorry for her, 3 hours for nothing, and me as a regular traveler find some, not all but some of customs and border control staff are really on a big power trip. I wish she could get compensation for this false detention.
@@Yooper2024A 12 hour hospital stay for a cavity search does not appear in most people’s travel plan. Then you have to add the four hours at customs before that (three of which were before the start of the video), plus the two hours after the return from the hospital.
@Doc5thMech Then don't be belligerent, rude, and act like you are guilty. It really is that simple. It is really amazing how you are treated when you're polite and respectful.
That internal examination was retaliatory. I don't know what the laws are in Australia, but if in the US I would have sued them for the unwarranted, invasive and retaliatory search which was clearly unjustified when the search of the bag revealed nothing. This is why I don't fly anymore.

Also basically saying you would act the same if made to wait 3 hours is not a big flex either.
Getting upset doesn’t really help with anything.
However being held at the airport for 3 hours and then having to get an internal body search sounds like a nightmare if you’re just traveling and not doing anything illegal.
It's a scanning procedure, not a physical cavity search.
@@sushimamba4281
So?
I think we can agree that she was really upset and not a very agreeable passenger, but how would you feel?
I wouldn’t be thrilled either:
To be held for hours after spending a day traveling, being accused of committing a crime, when you’re exhausted and just want to go home.
The internal search is going to add a lot more time, regardless of it “just being a scan”.
@@sushimamba4281 Get off your knees, mate. Her health was potentially damaged and her day wasted. She was arrested then physically abused. I'm a retired Detective who has organsed these scans. There was no reason for it. You're probably another Woman hater.
Her attitude only makes it worse..I was checked thoroughly at Heathrow by French customs for suspicious items..I had to laugh because I had Christmas fruit tarts with icing sugar spilled and money boxes from Windsor castle looked like bombs. The day Saddam Hussain was caught..I totally understood the reaction..
@@shirleyjenkins11 this is true.
I have been pulled at Heathrow for special screening as well, from the waiting area at the gate, alongside with a few other people.
They took our passports away, which was the scariest thing to me.
And led us into a secluded waiting room, where we were left for quite some time.
Once they returned, they separated us, we had to unpack our whole hand luggage, got swiped for drugs or explosives I guess and got questioned petty firmly.
We also got patted down again.
It was extremely uncomfortable because the TSA or security doing this were extremely rude and were treating us like we did something wrong.
Everybody was very cooperative, but that didn’t change the behavior of the people in charge.
This all took a very long time and we almost missed our flights.
By the time they returned our passports and escorted us onto the plane, everybody on board was already seated and gave us the stink eye, because we had delayed the plane.
I suffer from strong anxiety anyway, but traveling always takes me to my limits.
My husband and I live in the US and my family lives in Europe, so I have to travel in order to see them.
This really worsened my issues with traveling, because I know that even though I do nothing wrong and cooperate fully, there is always a chance to get into scary situations like this.
Thankfully it’s not always like this.
That first lady just put herself through so much unnecessary stress...crazy😝
Wasn't her, she was complinet, the staff kept on upping the ante.

Yeah, she was pretty foul-tempered alright.
She has every right to be upset. Just because you are a lacky doesn't mean she has to be.
@@rickruler2783 A right to be upset is fair. However getting upset with any law enforcement is rarely helpful.
The officers concealed their anger very well, but it did affect their judgement. Their suspicion based investigation produced zero evidence, and still detained the woman. This is not right.

I doubt she waited 3 hours.
Was it really 3 hours though? Karens have a special time bending ability where a 5-minute wait becomes half an hour so easily. Also, her 300 Argentinian pesos which her suit case cost were 150 Australian dollars according to her, where a currency converter tells me that 300 Argentinian pesos are actually about 0,50 Australian dollars. That suit case was a bargain, even if it was kind of falling apart on the inside.

Good point.
Many years ago, mom was the observer of the x-ray screen at an airport. In a suitcase she saw some electronics surrounded my some coiled material. The guy said he'd open it. He was immediately surrounded by security. Turns out he was an exotic dancer. The suitcase contained his boa snake and a heater.
Wow
That sounds pretty cruel
@@squidleyskidley Cruel in what way?
haha
She was a professional and showed paperwork that she was "Boaed Certified".
These Aussie officers are the nicest in the world! No way do they deserve how this woman speaks to them.
Just because they knew they were being recorded. They are spiteful little people
Because they are white passengers
The irate woman may have been annoying, but any behavioral analyst would know that her actions were the behaviors of an innocent person. When you know you are innocent and not carrying any drugs, you do expect that to be concluded within 3 hours. Sending her for a body scan, when their suspicion was her suitcase, really was just punitive regarding her behavior. It is very difficult to be a senior citizen traveling all day. She was just tired. Most of her aggravation could have been averted if someone offered her a chair.
And a cigarette, after her 20 hour flight
I didn't see the lady during the first or second hour of her detainment but I've gotta say, after two or three hours of trying to prove I hadn't done anything, I'd be pretty salty too. They went through her things and found nothing. They went through the suitcase and all they found was that she had been seriously overcharged for her bag. They did an invasive body search; still nothing. And y'all are saying that SHE was the problem? She should have spoken to an attorney.
I always overdress going into the USA: float through though age helps as well. meanwhile, they're detaining and inspecting everyone before and after me!!!
Unfortunately the officers intentionally picked on Kerry that day.......
Agreed
I saw this women in another UA-cam trying to get from Canada into the United States. She was as rude then as she was now. The custom officers refused admission and sent her back to Canada.
Oh good lord, why did WE let her in?! I know, first hand, that we have some pretty grumpy border agents in Toronto. Too bad she didn't meet them.

After 3 hours, poor Kerry was completely innocent -
P1ssed off but INNOCENT
OR THEY JUST DIDN'T FIND IT

Where else is it possible to hide drugs?
She could have swolled some.. however, this doesn't solve the weight of the case?

You can't blame Australians. It is unimaginable what happened to their brains after they spent their entire lives upside down.
That is why they talk funny and sound like they suffer from permanent nasal congestion.
The brain damage probably explains why Australians are so gullible if they think a five-minute story of a couple of new arrivals should be treated as a serious event when dragged out to twenty minutes of repeating the same few sentences.
That first lady was really confused about the currency. If she paid 300 Argentinian pesos for it, She paid less than one Australian dollar.😂
That's why the bag was repaired internally. Factory second.
I really appreciate Customs Officer Rita : )) such a decent human being!
Absolutely!!
If she was innocent then her anger and frustration is understandable.
She was innocent
It's not about her being frustrated and angry; it's about her acting out in anger.
Hmm some people might posit that being met. By hostility. As an indicator of of their hunch being correct
Everyone else has a job to do. And all u do is think of yourself maybe you oughta stay home if interaction with people troubles you so much.

The lady said she'd been waiting for 2 to 3 hours. Yes, she should be passed. I would be too.
If there's something, show it, if there's nothing, why keep digging and digging hoping to find something that's not there. People who point fingers at her, should listen carefully. Up to 3 hours waiting is a disgrace!

Excuse me, but I'm a bit confused. The woman who was detained for several hours and appeared to be quite frustrated was actually innocent? Her emotional reaction may have given the impression of guilt and contributed to the extended detainment, but I'm curious as to why it took so long to determine that there was no issue.

When did it become acceptable to treat others like this? Effing and blinding and having little tantrums?? Just COOPERATE and let them do their jobs!!!
I have a life's rule, when I go to a restaurant I never argue or shout at the waiters or cooks for obvious reasons, and I never argue or insult customs officers when entertaining or leaving a country at the customs check. When their shift is over, they go home and another shift starts, and you're still arguing, but with the new shift officers.
I've seen a very rude passenger arguing and making a scene at the immigration counter at an Asian airport. He was told to step aside while the counter served the visitor behind him. He was standing aside and making a ruckus and ignored by the immigration staff. After about 20 minutes he was begging and apologising saying he's going to miss his flight. It wasn't a case of language difference, it was about respecting authority when in a foreign country.
She has no idea how guilty these histrionics make her look.

Lastly, did you catch her saying that she just wanted to go and have a cigarette? After a long flight from Argentina to Australia…and then several hours in customs…her agitation was elevated from nicotine deprivation.
So much more to her story than was represented in this video.
The reason for her still being there might, just might, be her behavior.
Yes, that lady clearly was having a withdrawal reaction and needed a smoke. If they'd let her do that, she would've calmed down. The whole situation was absolutely ridiculous, and I can't believe they detained her and examined her for absolutely nothing.

She was on a transpacific flight so that is a 14 hours flight and probably she took a connector to get to Buenos Aires which could be another 5-6 hours. So she might have been nicotine-less for 20 hours.

That internal examination was retaliatory. I don't know what the laws are in Australia, but if in the US I would have sued them for the unwarranted, invasive and retaliatory search which was clearly unjustified when the search of the bag revealed nothing. This is why I don't fly anymore.
