I am extremely uncomfortable with this video... illegal wildlife smuggling is a serious issue especially in countries like Australia where biosecurity is critical and protected native species are stolen. There are over 130 Australian reptile species that are listed in the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Flora and Fauna (Cites).
Not a single "snakes on a plane" joke. I'm impressed at the restraint. Also, William diving headlong into the bush is one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

Security guy after the scan: "Alright, you're a strange guy". Security guy after seeing the end of this video:"Alright, that was clearly a huge understatement"
As a Florida native for those curious the snake in the video is known as a black racer. They eat venomous snakes and are notoriously filled with rage xD. I’ve hatched a clutch of wild eggs before and was curious if they could be tamed, as it turns out black racer snakes are near impossible to tame xD
@@Nox_Lunatera yeah their extremely fast xD, if u wanna catch one u either need to catch up to it as it’s fleeing and not miss your grab. Or approach it slowly in an attempt not to scare it off
I feel like this video was another rushed job. It seems like every one of these people are not just messing around and when they remember to make a video they come up with something stupid and call it work. While the video was meh, it was not the best.
If they truly wanted a real snake, they could have got it from a pet store. Someone clearly talked them out of taking a real snake for good. They wouldn't have wanted their name on a no-fly list.
@@WeAreInYourWall There is something innately hilarious about some random guy on the internet calling the police on another guy after he said "there is something innately hilarious about some random guy on the internet calling me racist" in response to that guy calling the police saying "That's racist." as a response to the "offender" saying "There is something innately hilarious about like 7 famous coding youtubers playing with a snake"
If you had TSA Pre, in some airports they just have you go through a metal detector instead of the full body scan thing and you could definitely get the snake hat through that.
When I went to the Galapagos I heard a story about how a woman tried to sneak 6 puppies through customs in a fake belly. You can't have dogs there because of all the protected wildlife but people like dogs so they of course try and smuggle them in. She was a local so the customs guys recognized that she left for a week and came back 9 months pregnant.
This went from a guy with a cool fake snake in hit hat to a mastermind who had like three red herrings and a made an entire website just in case. This is why we love you Allen.
Assuming it was non venomous (not a snake expert, wouldn't know how likely/unlikely this would be in Florida) the biggest problem would actually be the risk of him getting injured by the hedge lol. Non venomous snakes do bite sometimes but it's not a particularly big deal Having said that, if it's even remotely possible for it to be venomous (basically if there's venomous snakes in Florida, you really wouldn't want to risk mistaking a particularly weird looking venomous snake for a non venomous one so you would have to assume it is venomous) you would still very much want to avoid any contact with it and seek emergency medical care if it did bite you.
When I was a kid I was in Boy Scouts and would go on camping trips once a month or so. One summer I went to visit my grandparents in California which included me flying across the county. On my flight back home tsa found my AXE in my backpack that I forgot to take out after a recent camping trip. This was post 9/11 and I was able to pass through tsa three separate times with a god damn axe in my backpack before they found it 🤣
In all seriousness, DO NOT attempt to capture wildlife as a pet. In the vast majority of cases, it won't be happy in captivity, and you most likely will have a hard time giving it proper care. And since in most cases, it's illegal, you can't really take it to the vet if it needs medical attention. If you think you've found an injured animal, call a local animal rescue or other specialist
here in Florida theres a ton of invasive species and people usually go around hunting them. Tegus, chameleons, ball pythons you name it. If you are willing to make a sanctuary while also "Eliminating" them from the area, do it, since the other option is to kill on sight.
The reveal that he had more snakes in his bag was like the third act in the heist movie where after it looks like they failed it turns out it was a part of their plan all along.
8:27 "packed a bag with a third snake skeleton on the side" foreshadowed the whole other snake by saying there were three instead of the 2 we knew about
@@whatdoyoucallanalligatorin9174 which part of saying "hey, the money spent on this could just replace the thing destroyed, and then some" not say that it ignores the human element?
Watching you all be terrified of a harmless rat snake was pretty hilarious. I know not everyone is comfortable around them, but really, the biggest danger you were in was getting stinky!
Yeah I like how he had a 10 stage Rube Goldberg machine and a team of 5 people to get the snake into the hat/bag when they could have easily picked it up, put it in the bag, and the snake would have been relieved he doesnt have these weirdos chasing it around anymore.
Hey Allen, if you really want a pet snake, there are better ways to go about it. Wild caught snakes are usually harder to keep than ones bred in captivity. Of course, this varies a lot based on factors like for instance species, but still. Snakes are cool pets. Just don't get any venomous ones. Those are for experts.
At first I was like "ah, the video is no longer interesting now the actual snake ran away" but then as you got to the airport I can see why that was the far better outcome.
The amount of insane crossovers happening between some of these channels (especially in Florida apparently) is insane. Had to go back to make sure I saw IDAT at 3:26. Always cool to see that sort of stuff and it makes it more fun and interesting.
I love how the tsa suspect something is wrong and rather than taking you somewhere else they get you to explain pretty much just blocking the route out of the scanner. Like if he has got something dangerous then it's not just your job to stop him from getting on the plane but also to stop him from doing anything in the airport.
the tsa isn't actually allowed to detain you, so they can't really physically stop someone. it's the police officer's jobs that are stationed at the airport to do that stuff.
Everything about the TSA is about making every appearance of security while providing no actual security. The stupid, vain idea being that if it looks hard to get stuff past them you won’t try. 10 billion dollars a year to steal pocket knives from people when all they needed to do was lock the doors to the cockpit, which they did basically immediately after 9/11
@@Mostlyharmless1985 Exactly. People don't even know what security even means they think it means blocking access to things for bad individuals or stopping people from getting shot but it's so much more than that but all they actually want to do as you rightly said is appear to be taking security precautions so that the public feel safe.
To give them the benefit of the doubt, I’d imagine their reaction would’ve been a lot different if it were something explicitly dangerous. A snake isn’t really worth making a scene over imo, they handled it fine in this scenario.
Ok despite how hilarious it is I'm legitimately happy that he didn't try bringing an actual snake on a plane, for a wide variety of reasons. That said... "You're a strange guy, have a nice day" What a nice TSA officer lol. "Good lord are we just looking at a pile of snakes now?" has to be one of the better quotes from this channel.
@@tigertoxins584he knew he was gonna get caught so i think using the fake one was already planned from the start, because y'know it wouldn't be pretty to be caught by airport security trying to sneak a real living snake in the plane
"If you think about it, your tax dollars are paying for free CT scans for luggage at the airport - but not for sick people at the hospital." Damn. That cuts straight to the core of the BS of American life. We'll spend billions of tax dollars to give government contracts to private businesses, but not to help our own citizens.
I mean universal healthcare would also involve government contracts because that’s just how our government operates. Still a much better use of money than the fucking TSA tho
@Brennometer plenty of other capitalist countries have universal healthcare. Painting it as an anti-capitalist struggle only harms its political feasibility, especially in the US.
@@Eagle3302PL You wouldn't ever need stitches from a Black Racer. It would have to be a much larger Boa or Python before you would need to worry about that.
Michael, Nigel, Kevin, William, and Allen.... All the people that I enjoy watching on UA-cam a lot (among others of course), and somehow you almost always have them together on your videos. That's either great planning or next level friendship.
I never thought that an Allen Pan video would have more in common with jackass and oceans 11 but I think this is my favorite video you've ever made. I'm lying on the floor writing this message because your friend jumping in the bush after the snake left my chest heaving. Watching you at TSA was nail biting and the reveal at the end was amazing. Thank you so much for the best video ever
I'm amazed he could even go through wearing a hat. In the airport's I've been, you have to take off hats and jackets, they won't even let you attempt to walk through unless you do.
thats true, I don't know why they didn't tell him to remove the had beforehand. They either need to tell him to remove the hat and put it in the xray or remove the hat and let the TSA officer check it before he scans. Only way someone will be allowed to keep their headwear on is if its religion purposes, but thats going to be extra screening.
I just want to point out that at 5:34 the auto-captions interpret what you're saying as "log nuts monster." This is 100x better than whatever other monster you may have hypothetically been talking about.
I am very happy that you didn't end up getting to take a real snake on a plane. It could be invasive, or able to breed with a local snake or something and cause major environmental problems.
Also had it been confiscated it probably would have been killed and Alan would have potentially been in a bunch of trouble. I suspect he never intended to take the snake
@@skeetsmcgrew3282 I figured as much as well. I also wanted to leave the comment just in case that wasn't what happened and he tried something similar in the future.
This is because TSA employees only care about cashing their checks and if they have to work harder than they should they do not care. Plus they get harassed quite a bit due to racial profiling, touching and just being creeps. The same thing happens at sporting events where you are not allowed to bring outside drinks in and security just does not care and allows you to bring it in anyways.
@@kameljoe21 You actually work harder for the same pay? Why would anyone put more effort into their work than what is minimally needed? Also just an fyi starting pay for TSA officers are just a smudge above $15/hr. You don't work at TSA for the money.
I love itt when smart people do stupid shit. That being said, me and my best friend did this exact same thing, except instead of airport security, it was her mother, whom we had to make an entire enclosure and hide frozen baby mice. She still has her snake though, Allen can't relate.
The TSA is useless other than making it feel safe while in reality they miss most items they’re supposed to stop other than your shampoo that’s one oz too big.
@@stressedvulture worse it might get in their eyes, you ever see someone get shampoo in their eyes, be thankful you haven't. Everybody thinks the restriction is strange and an illusory safety through inconvenience but in reality their saving you from the "suds of anarchy".
A an avid hat wearer, every time i've traveled tsa has asked me to take off my hat before getting scanned so im honestly really surprised they scanned you with the hat on.
The best part is that the North American Racer (the snake you caught) is non venomous and scared of people so any of you could have just picked it up at any point and been almost 100% safe
The TSA took an empty shell casing i used as a key chain. It was from the 21 gun salute at my grandfathers funeral. What the heck could i do with an empty shell casing? The keys are more dangerous.
also, they're all like shit scared of this tiny cute little snake. like, no shit it escaped, you were all freaking out. just get a pet snake and pick it up. I mean, that's if its safe or humane to stuff a real snake into a tiny fabric bag. which, I don't think it really is, but whatever.

@@MasterYoshitaka I mean that's not much of a distinction if the tsa want to stop you they'll call and officer and he'll stop you.
Everything about the TSA is about making every appearance of security while providing no actual security. The stupid, vain idea being that if it looks hard to get stuff past them you won’t try. 10 billion dollars a year to steal pocket knives from people when all they needed to do was lock the doors to the cockpit, which they did basically immediately after 9/11
@@Mostlyharmless1985 Exactly. People don't even know what security even means they think it means blocking access to things for bad individuals or stopping people from getting shot but it's so much more than that but all they actually want to do as you rightly said is appear to be taking security precautions so that the public feel safe.
To give them the benefit of the doubt, I’d imagine their reaction would’ve been a lot different if it were something explicitly dangerous. A snake isn’t really worth making a scene over imo, they handled it fine in this scenario.
Ok despite how hilarious it is I'm legitimately happy that he didn't try bringing an actual snake on a plane, for a wide variety of reasons. That said...
"You're a strange guy, have a nice day" What a nice TSA officer lol.
"Good lord are we just looking at a pile of snakes now?" has to be one of the better quotes from this channel.
He probably didn't plan to bring the snake in the first place.
i feel like this is actually gonna get you on the no fly list lmao
GOOD 🗿
As a biologist, this kills me. As a normal human, I love everything this video is.
some jekyll and hyde vibes over here
legit felt bad for the snake, not sure if he caught it solely to play off the fake ones or if he was serious
@@tigertoxins584he knew he was gonna get caught so i think using the fake one was already planned from the start, because y'know it wouldn't be pretty to be caught by airport security trying to sneak a real living snake in the plane
4:30 Oh, wrong Michael...
Im the first person to reply to THE Michael Superbacker . OMG the best day of my life

Hello
"If you think about it, your tax dollars are paying for free CT scans for luggage at the airport - but not for sick people at the hospital."
Damn. That cuts straight to the core of the BS of American life. We'll spend billions of tax dollars to give government contracts to private businesses, but not to help our own citizens.
I mean universal healthcare would also involve government contracts because that’s just how our government operates. Still a much better use of money than the fucking TSA tho
Yep, that's about right.
still a lot worse in other places.
@@Annuld True. Worst than every other developed country though.
@Brennometer plenty of other capitalist countries have universal healthcare. Painting it as an anti-capitalist struggle only harms its political feasibility, especially in the US.
the fact that these guys are so terrified of just grabbing the little guy and putting him in the hat is freaking hilarious
I know right!? Just a harmless little Black Racer. These dips**ts act like it's a Black Mamba! Uneducated people are amusing.
I get it, what if it bites you, then you may have to get stitches, it's a hassle.
@@Eagle3302PL You wouldn't ever need stitches from a Black Racer. It would have to be a much larger Boa or Python before you would need to worry about that.
The TSA is the USA's best funded theatre production company.
the part when will jumped into the hedges for that damn snake had me dying
Kudos to the alteration shop for actually going through with making a snake containment hat-
That snake has a crazy story to tell other snakes now
That snake is now Randy Quaid in Independence Day. Allen better be on the lookout for snakes in fighter jets for the foreseeable future..
The snake will try to show all its friends the UA-cam video but will unfortunately be hindered by the inability operate a phone.
@@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721 I would say it could use the talk to text feature to use it but all it would pick up is "Hiiissss"
Michael, Nigel, Kevin, William, and Allen.... All the people that I enjoy watching on UA-cam a lot (among others of course), and somehow you almost always have them together on your videos. That's either great planning or next level friendship.
All we needed was mark rober to have them all
And I Did a Thing. All my favourites, haha.
I never thought that an Allen Pan video would have more in common with jackass and oceans 11 but I think this is my favorite video you've ever made. I'm lying on the floor writing this message because your friend jumping in the bush after the snake left my chest heaving. Watching you at TSA was nail biting and the reveal at the end was amazing. Thank you so much for the best video ever
I'm amazed he could even go through wearing a hat. In the airport's I've been, you have to take off hats and jackets, they won't even let you attempt to walk through unless you do.
They've seen this video!
thats true, I don't know why they didn't tell him to remove the had beforehand. They either need to tell him to remove the hat and put it in the xray or remove the hat and let the TSA officer check it before he scans. Only way someone will be allowed to keep their headwear on is if its religion purposes, but thats going to be extra screening.
"and that's when I had a stroke.......of genius"
That absolutely killed me 🤣
His videos feel like mythbusters but without the budget or experts to help him... I love it. Just don't get yourself arrested or killed, Allen.
William's dive into the bush had me choking with laughter.
I just want to point out that at 5:34 the auto-captions interpret what you're saying as "log nuts monster." This is 100x better than whatever other monster you may have hypothetically been talking about.
the loch ness monster
Seeing so many of my favorite UA-camr's together, let alone good friends with each other, brings me so much joy.
you should check out safety third if you havent
was alexia in there? i feel like i saw him
FINALLY I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR A TUTORIAL ON HOW TO DO THIS FOR AGES. THANK YOU!
I love how they're doing all this freaking out infront of real life Australians
"We are going to find out if 10 billion dollars is really enough money to keep me from getting a snake onto an airplane!" Best quote 👌
I am very happy that you didn't end up getting to take a real snake on a plane. It could be invasive, or able to breed with a local snake or something and cause major environmental problems.
It looks like a North American Racer, which is endemic to the continent, *but still* I agree with you on premise
Also had it been confiscated it probably would have been killed and Alan would have potentially been in a bunch of trouble. I suspect he never intended to take the snake
@@skeetsmcgrew3282 never were spoken words more true than the above comment by Skeets McGrew
@@cd14623 Excellent point. I figured someone would likely know.
@@skeetsmcgrew3282 I figured as much as well. I also wanted to leave the comment just in case that wasn't what happened and he tried something similar in the future.
DHS has done tests on the TSA and finds they consistently miss over 75% of test explosive devices.
This is because TSA employees only care about cashing their checks and if they have to work harder than they should they do not care. Plus they get harassed quite a bit due to racial profiling, touching and just being creeps. The same thing happens at sporting events where you are not allowed to bring outside drinks in and security just does not care and allows you to bring it in anyways.
@@kameljoe21 Oh no, the people that violate the constitution as their jobs get harassed? Oh no!
People are still talking about articles that came out 5-7 years ago?
@@kameljoe21 You actually work harder for the same pay? Why would anyone put more effort into their work than what is minimally needed? Also just an fyi starting pay for TSA officers are just a smudge above $15/hr. You don't work at TSA for the money.
"I was in Florida and found a snake just lying on the ground." Yeah that happens a lot
I love itt when smart people do stupid shit. That being said, me and my best friend did this exact same thing, except instead of airport security, it was her mother, whom we had to make an entire enclosure and hide frozen baby mice. She still has her snake though, Allen can't relate.
The TSA is useless other than making it feel safe while in reality they miss most items they’re supposed to stop other than your shampoo that’s one oz too big.
You ever see what someone could do with an ounce of shampoo? You're welcome for the fact you haven't.
Yuuup, all you need is some shampoo, a little bit of milk, and some hydrocortisone cream and BOOOM!
@@acewmd. They might just wash their hair!! Can't let that happen now can we?!
@@stressedvulture worse it might get in their eyes, you ever see someone get shampoo in their eyes, be thankful you haven't. Everybody thinks the restriction is strange and an illusory safety through inconvenience but in reality their saving you from the "suds of anarchy".
@@acewmd. Fun fact, you can just pack a second or third bottle of shampoo... That for some reason is still allowed. It's all theatre.
3:33 what an amazing interaction, only true friends can talk like this and everyone knows that
The reason your potential pet wouldn't go in the hat was because snakes go in boots, not hats
~75% of TSA's budget is probably to train new staff due to their ridiculous turn-over rate.
Allen Pan, answering the questions we never knew we had
6:00 snake: "what the fuck is wrong with these people"
The little pat with "Alright, you're a strange guy" had me wheezing from laughter
I love the idea of science and engineering geniuses failing to put a snake in a hat
Allens son: "Dad how do you get on the no fly list?"
Allen: "it all started with a snake..."
FTFY: *How DID you get on the no fly list*
Everyone tries to be careful to get the snake.
William: 5:46 I'm gonna do what is called a pro gamer move!
A an avid hat wearer, every time i've traveled tsa has asked me to take off my hat before getting scanned so im honestly really surprised they scanned you with the hat on.
The best part is that the North American Racer (the snake you caught) is non venomous and scared of people so any of you could have just picked it up at any point and been almost 100% safe
Nerd (I'm sorry)
you could say the same about most spiders, but that doesn't stop me from running away from them
honestly very happy that the real snake escaped was getting very stressed abt wild caught reptile drama
How he did this we will never know. Snakes.
The security seemed actually nice. When I went I got yelled at
That’s an interesting title, can’t where to see where this goes
Seems like it's going to the airport but that's just me making assumptions
@@pngmast3r793 damnit you beat me to it you lil turd nugget you
GG THO
0:45 I thought he was gonna say "For 10 billion dollars, you can completely irradicate Poland."
I love the 3 power strips and then the mostly unused really long extension cord to plug in the x-ray machine.
The TSA took an empty shell casing i used as a key chain. It was from the 21 gun salute at my grandfathers funeral. What the heck could i do with an empty shell casing? The keys are more dangerous.
Your treatment of this poor snake is incredibly fucked up
great gimmick, but you didn't need to abduct a wild snake.
Just comin from a fellow snake lover
Not to mention how careless they were being with it. Was half expecting one of them to jump on it and kill it.
@@ekoz seriously, William could have killed it when he jumped in the bush
also, they're all like shit scared of this tiny cute little snake. like, no shit it escaped, you were all freaking out.
just get a pet snake and pick it up. I mean, that's if its safe or humane to stuff a real snake into a tiny fabric bag. which, I don't think it really is, but whatever.
You guys should get a UA-cam channel together, or do some safety third specials or something. You guys really bring out the best out of eachother
If anyone was wondering the snake that loves his owner so much that he ran away was a southern black racer.
This was an absolute *Rollercoaster* from start to finish. Well done!
10:48 security dude staring at Allan packing his bag with snakes 😂
"My pet snake is going to LOVE being stuffed into this hat" had me dying
I love how nigel (nilered) is documenting the whole process for the patreon members of safety third lol
10:06 The face of a man reconsidering his choice of friends.
Fantastic video man, I’m sure all your friends are happy knowing you got a bunch on fake snakes and the skills to make them move on their own.
I'm glad the poor snake managed to escape
That snake is so small that it couldn’t hurt you. I’ve never seen so many smart people so irrationally scared.
I've thought the TSA was a joke before the jokes started. I look forward to watching this...
