How did some scanner not think this weird bundle of electronics was a bomb? Or at least cause some one to inspect it closely.
Because outside of the US people are not paranoid.
Sadly England seems to be.

#12Wow. I'd love for someone to do this with luggage on a flight.

#13Cool video and idea on the mailing system. Looks to be in a country that is not the U.S., maybe European??? Anyway, a U.S. version would be pretty cool to see as well.
The authors contact page [1] mentions a Dutch mobile phone number, but the stamp [2] clearly shows Post Danmark was used in transport. [1] http://rubenvandervleuten.com/contact.html [2] http://rubenvandervleuten.com/AtoB1.jpg
The address on [2] also shows Copenhagen (København).
People move around Europe a lot these days.

#14Everything looks so clean and organized. If this was done in the US, especially via UPS, it would look a lot different.

It is Denmark, very likely Copenhagen.
I am Danish and recognise things such as Danske Bank, in the beginning of the video, Post Danmark and so forth :)

#16I wonder how long time the package spent time in transit, and how much time it simply spent idle.

#18In January a similar thing was done in the UK, with the package being sent to Julian Assange in the Ecuadorian Embassy.

There are countries in the world where this would rightly trigger a bomb scare. It's nothing to do with paranoia - in some places mail bombs are a reality.

The bomb detectors (if it passed through any) were more likely trying to detect actual chemical signatures of explosives rather than just a bunch of wires that might be a detonator. So something like this would pass fine, as it should.
