1. The Original British Production of 'Traffic'
Had a subplot where a woman was blackmailed into being a mule, and doing something like this. Really awful stuff. Drug dealers are not nice people.

6. Wait a second - I don't get something
What part of your GI tract is up under your ribs?

How could a stomach pass something that large into the intestines? What are those little bags that stomach acids wouldn't eat into them?

How did anyone ever think the would recover all those?

Must have been REALLY uncomfortable...

7. And, when did an MRI become capable of a full-color "Total Recall" Hollywood scan that...
can show just a nicely shaded 3D skeleton, baggies of blow, and nothing else?

11. The obvious lesson to take from this incident is that the drug war must be stepped up...
So that this sort of thing never happens in the future..
