Smuggler caught carrying 306 CPUs
 

Huge "on-person-smuggling" feat

Chinese customs have apprehended a man attempting what must be the biggest on-the-person CPU smuggling feat.

The bloke was stopped at Qingmao Port as he sought to cross from Macau to mainland China with 306 CPUs fashioned into a girdle around his waist.

According to China's People's Daily, the smuggler gave himself away as he "was walking in an abnormal posture" which is not really surprising. The 306 CPUs weighed 50g and would be 15kg around the tummy. Then there is the paper and tape packaging materials to hold all the computer gear in place.

Another report on this smuggling attempt, posted by Hong Kong's On News, says that the male passenger didn't just wear the CPU 'girdle' around his waist. Some of the 306 CPU payload was taped to his legs.

In the images, you can see the slim passenger wearing a black loose-fitting sports shirt. The topmost image shows the shirt rolled up from the waist.
