Exploding Breasts?
 
Anyone seen any evidence of the claimed LHR queues or the "particular attention" being applied to women, or is this another Daily Fail scare story?

Exploding Beasts?
 
Typo in thread title makes this story even more surreal

Cradders Aug 16, 2013 7:57 am

Totally. Although if I witnessed either exploding onboard, it would be unexpected, to say the least

Do animals get nude-o-scoped?

No, I have had only water, nothing else... But am I the only one who rest the title as "exploding breasts". :p

Ok OP really meant breast... What if someone forgets them on the tray???

Where do I claim my new laptop?

I think I've just drowned mine in coffee after reading this thread!:D

Genius. "Hmm.. how to explain the long lines this time?"

Someone's getting promoted for a bright marketing idea!

Given the threat this poses to national security, I will spend extra time examining Mrs M's breasts tonight. Purely for safety reason, obviously...

True or not, we just had an email from our travel people at work about this, warning of possible security delays at LHR and additional checks for people intending to travel to the US.

It's good of you to make such a sacrifice.

Let's hope nobody tries to give Diana Ross a thorough check over

What a load of bull poo.

I'm no chemist....Hang on, wait, yes I am..

The amount of chemical explosive that would have to be in the implant would have to be considerable.

Firstly, you'd have to be able to build an implant with the chemical in (not easy in itself for loads of reasons), getting hold of the chemicals is not that easy in itself, then this would have to be implanted into someone (good luck finding a woman and someone with enough skill to put it in and not cause massive infection and death). lets also assume the chemical would not leach out of the implant during the recovery stage before the flight.

This person would then have to get the "other" chemical which would be injected through security (there are tests for this I assume, hence why we have to go through scanners??).

Also, the best way to bring down a plane would be to detonate the explosive directly upon the fuselage. ie, push her boobs against the skin of the plane during the explosion. Having a chemical explosion occur inside you body is, I would imagine fairly painful. I would expect the person would be in absolute agony for at least a few seconds before it reached "critical mass" and most likely, the chemicals would leak during this period through the body. The body is also a good "conductor" of explosive force.

Anyway, all rubbish as I'm sure you'd all agree and never going to happen.

It's the daily mail. What do you expect.

I like one of the comments:
"scaremongering doesn't help anyone."

What else do you expect from this rag?

One needle, two breasts.

How much recovery time, or careful surgeoning, do you actually need, if you dont care about living more than 12 hours?


Anyway, all rubbish as I'm sure you'd all agree and never going to happen.
Of course. There simply aren't enough people in the world that are willing to blow themselves up, otherwise we'd see suicide bombers on the tube every week.

There aren't even enough people willing to go on a shooting spree, otherwise American malls would be desolate places.
