Detecting Explosives @ SFO


Saw the picture above and reminded me when I was in San Francisco Airport (SFO) in April 2001. I was going through the metal detectors and some idiot stopped the other side of the metal detector to mess about putting their coat and bag on. So I walked around the metal detector to get by him. I didn't think anything of it until afterwards.

There was no one there taking any notice so for some reason I decided to go around. You would think it would be blocked in so you couldn't go around. I didn't do it intentionally, just didn't think. No one stopped me, I just picked my bag up, which had been through the conveyor belt metal detector and walked on. 6 months later was 9/11. Just shows you how crap the security was I could of had anything strapped around me!!

If you look at the picture above you can see how you could still walk around the explosive detector if no one is taking any notice. Just hope they are more observant now?
