20160428:Expensive and uncomfortable 既昂贵又受罪
When a plane from London arrived at Sydney airport, workers began to unload a
number of wooden boxes which contained clothing. No one could account for the fact that
one of the boxes was extremely heavy. It suddenly occurred to one of the workers to open
up the box. He was astonished at what he found. A man was lying in the box on top of a pile
of woolen goods. He was so surprised at being discovered that he did not even try to run
away.After he was arrested, the man admitted hiding in the box before the plane left
London. He had had a long and uncomfortable trip, for he had been confined to the wooden
box forover eighteen hours. The man was ordered to pay $3,500 for the cost of the trip.
The normal price of a ticket is $2,000!
