Swedish Woman Tries To Check Herself in With Luggage

An unnamed 78-year-old, Swedish woman thought she was just following instructions on how to check in for her flight, when she climbed onto an unmanned luggage belt with her suitcase. She lay down on the belt and rode it into the baggage handling bay where she was rescued by workers. "Unfortunately, she did not understand when she was given check-in instructions. She took the belt together with her bag. Luckily it wasn't a long ride - only a couple of metres," said Ari Kallonen of baggage handling firm Nordic Aero. She suffered injury only to her pride and made her flight to Germany. I wonder if she tagged herself.

Oh, really...

Actually it's a sign of things to come in the future of air travel security.

had this been in the U.S.

[screamphilling]

homeland security would have filed a huge investigation and she would've been detained for a few hours

everyone would've freaked out
