American tourists at a non-US airport. Sir, it's a digital scanner. Please don't push your luggage into the security gate. Also please remove your neck pillow while being scanned. Please stop pushing the gate Sir. Sir, please remove your backpack, and your baseball cap, and your sunglasses. 🙄

Ach I'm just being grumpy, although the technology did seem to baffle him. Young guy but clearly from the school of, if it moves kick it until it doesn't, if it doesn't move kick it until it does.

The fact that they continue to give airtime to right wing nut jobs like Farage says it all.
