I 100% agree with the last three posts

i wouldn't blame security for taking the charger and looking at it. if it looks funny, by all means. but i suppose they should have realized it wasnt a bomb once looking at it.

People say it's ridiculous now but if it had been a bomb and gone off people would be criticising the security. Plus, simple bombs are generally made out of plastic and batteries. Cliche Habbo term: better safe than sorry.

Maybe so but they need some sort of explosive or flammable material and there clearly isn't one there.

Sorry but people who make a big issue over getting things taken from them bug me.

I'd rather lose my crappy home made ipod charger because I was too cheap and stingy to buy one in the first place, and put other peoples minds at ease and help upkeep the security of the airport and other passengers.

:S it's not crappy, from what i interpreted it seemed like it was better than a normal one.

& yeah i think it's fair enough they looked at it because it looked a bit dodgy but they did go a little OTT.

i think its good that airlines are taking extra precautions.

Rofl, it looks harmless. Its just a piece of plastic and few pieces of metal. Ahh well, better safe than sorry.
