Since 911 the airlines have cracked down on what can go through check in but still people try their best to bring strange and unusual things with them. I would think that after eight years people would get the message and leave the unacceptable items at home while traveling but,

New York city alone has had some really weird things people thought they could get away with bringing with them and here are just a few.

43 different types of explosives were reported, are these people playing with a full deck or are they truly nuts?  I hope they were all arrested and held in prison for some time to think about this one.  Just the thought of bringing an explosive on board means these people have no brains at all.

1600 knives of all shapes and sizes were confiscated. You can’t bring a bottle of cologne that is more than 3 ounces with you so why on earth would anyone try to bring a knife?

 A 10 point deer antler would make a nice weapon don’t you think? Instead of stabbing just one at a time you could get ten with just one thrust. Idiots!

Why would you need a fire extinguisher on an airplane? Do people think if the plane catches fire they would be able to put it out?

Tree branches was another one of those crazy, weird things to bring along for the plane ride. Don’t they know it is against the law to carry plants from one state to another, and where would they rest this thing in the over head compartment?

Nun-chucks for the Ninja type who just couldn’t leave home without them. Who knows maybe this person was on a Ninja convention and needed to show off his skills, which is fine but at check in?

 A grill to cook all those weenies and burgers while in flight. Maybe this one is due to lack of airlines not serving more than a microscopic container of peanuts. I know I get hungry while in flight, but this guy should have left the grill at home and ordered a sandwich to go.

Baby alligators is one I would have never thought of. My lord trying to bring along a kitten or a dog is a chore in itself with vet certificates and certain containers, so did that gator have all its shots?

Now this one is not only nuts but disgusting, unwashed adult toys. If you got time to use them why not take a few seconds and wash them off? I would be so embarrassed to even consider bringing along a BOB (battery operated boyfriend) for the road never mind a dirty one, Yuk!

A chain saw filled with fuel, I can’t stop my laughter when I think about this one. I can picture in my mind some guy standing at the x ray machine and removing his coat and shoes and then reaching for another basket forhis fully fueled chain saw. Can you see the poor person reading that as it makes it way down the conveyor belt?

And last but not least, yes a kitchen sink.

I am not sure what any of these folks got into their heads when leaving their house for there flights to who knows where, but they may have brought some explosives and ya the kitchen sink, but they defiantly left their brains at home!
