Smuggle Watch: Cheap and Sweaty Clothing For Sale

While other entrepreneurs/smugglers might try attaching crocodiles to their bodies on long flights, a Kenyan guy this week took a somehow more normal attitude to smuggling. On a flight leaving from Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport, the main hub of China Southern Airlines, he was stopped at the security counter because he was wearing such a thick suit on a hot day.

When he opened his jacket, security officers didn't find crocs or even chameloens, they just found lots of clothes. The guy had decided that the clothing he wanted to resell in Kenya would be too pricey in excess baggage, so he'd decided to wear it: more than 100 pieces of men's and women's clothing. We definitely don't want the layer closest to the armpits.

Friends

Just like Joey on friends when he put all his clothes on, I'm sure that was realted to flying and having to many clothes. I've seen loads of Joey t shirts on eBay, t shirt printing is so cheap to sort out that nowadays anyone can source it and start selling clothing.
