How Allen Sneaks Knives Past TSA - Safety Third 103

[@dapz]

Ive gotten inspected by the TSA for bringing a harmonica on multiple occasions because they think it’s a knife. The first time it happened I almost missed my flight

[@RyanMercer]

I have an update about Apple Sauce: it's gross, have some Open Sauce instead.

[@ac.creations]

But the open apple sauce is also gross

[@lakovkreativity]

What's Upsauce?

[@TheVillainsProjects]

It's literally just apple, though?

[@RyanMercer]

[@bwoods311]

You haven’t lived until you’ve had apple sauce through a straw.

[@Ferinex_666]

Will's idea for a device that stops time in a fatal emergency and asks if you want to pay $5k to live is basically just the American healthcare system lol

[@colinofay7237]

It really isn't, when it's so easy to get health care as well as hospitals are required to help, it isn't remotely similar

[@seldoon_nemar]

30:00 that dude who got sucked in survived. His helmet got torn off his head and ingested, and the FOD caused the pilot to shutdown. No one saw him go in, only climb out. What's way worse is watching people walk into the rotor of a helicopter. People just walk directly into the tail rotor, or a drooping main rotor and just turn into a mist on the top half while their legs take a second to realize

[@shaneTA]

I'd definitely buy another Busty Walrus plush. Gotta have the whole gang

Kevin was almost there with the shirt that falls apart when you make a payment, but instead of physically swiping a credit card it needs to be controlled by the OnlyFans livestream paid chat. I'm retired from the industry for years now but I know a lot of ladies that could work this into their shows. You wouldn't even really need to make the clothing itself just make remotely triggered clasps and an OBS plugin.

@1:30:00 ish screw specific items, what you have there is a whole label. CFMWBD™ (clothes for.... you know the rest) This way you get to remind everyone what it's about, but in a classy way. (and by classy, I mean, slightly less obvious than holding a big sign.)

1:31:08 they already exist. It’s like hello fresh or boku box bit for clothes. Say you have a dinner to go to, you pick out a couple outfits online, they get shipped to you, you wear them once, and then you send them back. And you get to pick x amount of clothes each month or something…

Boy Scout Jamboree in DC 1993, had some 30,000 boy scouts touring the sites in DC. With metal badge pins, metal belt buckles, metal grommets on their boots, and the vast majority with pocket knives. Very clearly recall going to the Capitol building, long line of scouts, every one setting off the metal detector, and the guard just waving them thru. "Yeah, yeah, I know, keep moving, keep moving."

[@nicholash.7656]

I hope you guys can have more time to visit the exhibits!

42:00 was this filmed before the Baltimore bridge collapse? Cause if so... Wild timing

[@CanyonF]

bridges are like one of the 10 things engineers talk about lol, not really surprising

[@ac.creations]

Just a lil 1.2 million pound love tap. Can't believe they didn't engineer that into the tolerances! /s

[@Dan12345]

41:38 knife steels, I can confirm are not within 5% of each other. Cutting on ceramic will obviously dull a knife, so cut on a cutting board or use a table knife. The best part about choosing the right steel is I don’t have to care about staples, I can cut right through them; I’ve batoned through copper cables before.

[@paulbrooks4395]

You know, it's surprising how many movies and TV shows are about taking out politicians. Nothing, however, will stop the TSA from searching my checked bag every time I take coffee beans. If JSX is in your area, fly that instead, there's no TSA bullshittery and flying is a joy (free alcoholic drinks!).

[@livingdead754]

I was over an hour into watching this before I realised William is wearing a Bluey T shirt! As an Australian I'm biased but it has to be one of the best shows for kids that adults can also watch 😊 some of the subjects they tackle are really hard hitting and give everyone important lessons. And if nothing else, some fun ideas for kids and adults to play.

[@Ferinex_666]

I do utility disconnects for work, so I would totally buy a thin, barely noticeable bulletproof shirt if it was affordable.

This was a fun one for me! I'm right at the beginning of my journey into product design, and manufacture! Have presold ~$10k revenue worthy of units within a few weeks, super exciting to see! I may just be able to quit my desk jocky engineer job soon! My product is a little intricate thing made of stainless steel, synthetic rubies, and stabilised (resin impregnated) wood. My biggest learnings so far is, doing the CAD modelling is NOT the same as designing something that can actually efficiently be manufactured. Like Will mentioned, DFM type thinking. That and producing actual workable engineering drawings that can be used for manufacture. That and actually learning how to talk directly to the factories building the product. Many people get caught dealing with middle men companies that just add extra cost and they talk to the manufacturer. It's definitely best to buy talk to the manufacturer directly. To talk directly to the factories, you need to know the lingo otherwise they just don't won't talk to you. You want to deal with the biggest factories, and they want to on deal with the biggest clients. You need to talk like a big client and know the lingo otherwise they won't deal with you. Learning all this, first hand has been such a huge valuable learning experience that I genuinely feel has been more valuable than my entire engineering degree. It feels like a super power being able to think up a product, do some cad and drawings and get it manufactured within months.... Just unreal!

[@daemenoth]

59:55 Allen you just invented gunchucks! You must market these!

[@Tkelly5]

A lot of creators in the "funny tech" space, whether it's conscious or not, have realized that a minimum viable product makes for a way more entertaining video than the incredibly tedious process of getting the last bit of function.

I worked for an airline in Europe. Once post covid travel started picking up Amsterdam airport didn't think to get more staff. So the security line was 4h-6h and the airline would still blame you when you missed the flight

Ayo, that pillow! Living in the hood, I hear a couple gunshots a night. I'm always worried a stray bullet will hit me somehow, no joke. But the price will keep me from getting it, I'm sure. Also, the EDC thing isn't just 'preppers' or 'insane'. It's not just like knives and stuff. It's anything and everything you never leave your house without, not including clothing. Your phone, wallet, keys, sunglasses, change and bills just in case, bluetooth earbuds, etc. Not just stuff like knife, rope, matches, etc. 'just in case shit goes down' or whatever.

[@Ferinex_666]

But what if I have an idea that's bad and won't be ready in time? Is there an anti-exhibitor position I can apply for?

[@onedeadsaint]

1:12:18 i've wanted to have a life size skull mug of myself for about 10 years now. my idea was exactly the same: get a CT scan and convert it to be printable and then i can have it made from anything. in fact just last week i brought it up to my doctor, but he didn't go for it. i'll have to make something up, i guess. lmao all that to say, i don't want your skull for a mug, i want mine!🤣

[@tacticallyinferior5332]

honest to god if yall sold quality maker tools I would buy them. just putting a name on something that YOU personally like using would be enough just because it tells me and the audience "hey this is a quality soldering iron r set or whatever that I enjoy using". look at voidstar labs gridfinity stuff or the custom keyboards hes making, I would buy that type of stuff if it just came in packs i could ship to my house

It seems like you need to exploit Nigel for your merchandise. Project Idea: Nigel Body Pillows Make it a limited merchandise item made to order. The image will be Nigel fully dressed and in his lab coat. Then make it so 1 in every 15 orders someone will win a special "saucy" image body pillow (Nigel fully clothed without the lab coat, that's the joke, but they won't know). His harem will make you rich. As an added bonus, people can pay extra for the bulletproof panel to put in the pillow.

You know what... In Europe (at least in Germany) you don't need to take your shoes off at TSA and also you don't need to take your laptop out of you hand luggage... You can even keep things in your pockets and your watch on your wrist, the airport has the latest scanners, like e. g. in Frankfurt... And if you have a European passport, you can enter the country so quickly... no lines of waiting, just come in... maybe hold your passport onto a scanner, that's it 😅

The most gratuitous abuse I've experienced at airport security was one of those plasma lighters. They'll give you a zap, a small burn if you hold it. A battery smaller than an average mp3 player. And you can't take a standard lighter. The security dude had a look at it, and was visibly "oh, cool" and just yoinked it. "nope, can't have that". Straight up stole it, bet it went straight into his pocket. On the flip side, my dad once had the time to go back and put something they wanted to take from him in his checked luggage. The dude asked, do you want want any of these? Scored 6 pocket knives. Soo...
