As a frequent flyer, I have had so many bad and ridiculously unnecessary experiences with airport security since 9/11, I could write a war-and-peace-sized book about it. But since I’m too lazy, let me link you to an actual pilot’s recount:
Aside from his recount, my experience has shown me this much:
If I were a terrorist, the type we tend to be afraid of in the US - I would hide my explosives in my wife’s tampon. Because as a muslim radical, I obviously think women are just cattle to be slaughtered or whatever the hell else I feel like doing with them. So I’m sure some day soon, TSA will justify fingering passengers (woohoo, all sexual spastics apply now!). At some airports, we have to get nearly naked already.
It’s only a matter of time before I will have to decide: do I want to fly to the US to see my family but have to be fingered, groped, shown naked on a screen? Or do I want to continue living life without sexual trauma. Hm.
Oh and another thing - I scraped the ice off my car’s windshield with my credit card, worked a treat. It has a nice, sharp edge. So you know what, I’ll bet I could slit your throat with my credit card. What, are you going to take my credit card from me now, too? I’ve opened quite a few parcels and CD-foils with my key, are you going to take my keys from me? There are so many things I could use to kill you…. if I wanted to. Airport security is completely pointless.
Stop the insanity. The war against terror is long lost. The terrorists obviously won.

You’d better lose that pre-9/11 mentality”

This pickup line might actually work in the future…
Remove bra in event of biological attack
The Emergency Bra is a real bra that doubles as a respiratory face mask — for two. It’s designed to be removed quickly and filter airborne particles from fires to biological attacks.

THE BEAT OF NEW YORK from tim hahne on Vimeo.
Thomas Noesner, our DoP, was in New York for a shoot of the new Mercedes R-Class. Right after the job, he took his camera and strolled through the busting streets of „The City“. While screening the pictures of a drummer in the tube station, I had the idea of creating a „remix“ of the recorded drum sequence to use it as a soundtrack for the film. That´s when our sounddesigner Toussaint came into play… We composed a track around the drum beat of this guy. Watch and listen to the beat of New York!
