Have you ever wondered how many "Candid Camera" pranks end in tears or violence? One Swedish hidden camera show's stunt almost led to an arrest, when airport officials were less than amused by an attempt to check in a suitcase with a dwarf inside.

Instead of laughing, the employees at Bromma airport called the police when the little person burst out of the luggage at the check-in counter. When informed that the nerve-wracking reveal was being filmed for a TV program, the airport decided not to press charges, but added that they were "shocked and humiliated" by the trick.

Spokesman Dan Panas said that the show was meant to be "provocative and entertaining," and to make entertainment out of "extreme situations."

After trying the old "bomb in the suitcase" bit the last time we flew, we're not surprised to hear that airport security didn't find this funny.



How do we decide where we're going to travel? It all depends on where the naked protesters from around the world will be.
