This brings up the fact terrorists do not need to get past the security check point they only need to jump the fence and plant a bomb in the wheel well of an aircraft...
Not a pleasant thought and one that could have expensive ramifications on airport security.

The TSA and everthing it has done since 9/11 is nothing but costly security theater.
You have this half brain than the LAX gunman that killed 1 and hurt 7 others back in 2013. Can you imagine competent terrorists could do?

If this teenager makes it through this 'incident' without any lasting physical effects, then NASA should hire this kid like real quick.
Then, they would have an ideal test subject for testing new methods of CryoStasis, for long duration spaceflight!
I just don't understand how, if he was in 'hibernation', he didn't fall out of the Wheel Well when it opened up!
Of course, he DID say he wasn't feeling wheel well... HA HARRR ARRR!!
This bee is skeptical. 62 degrees below the freezing point of water for extended periods should have some observable effect on the body!
While his story reportedly checked out, extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof, methinks.
Seems their was a movie with someone hiding in a well, perhaps one of those Bruce Willis flicks. Monkey see monkey do. As for the TSA, affirmative action employees, useless.
Odds are not good for this sort of event, but some are survivable-
"Incidences of people sneaking onto planes aren't as uncommon as you might think. Since 1996, there have been 105 stowaways on 94 flights worldwide, according to the Federal Aviation Administration in an e-mail to USA TODAY Network.
More than 76% of those attempts resulted in deaths, the FAA says."

There was another one of these where the guy was found dead in the wheel well just recently.

This is such a strange story. Young man gets into a family argument. Decides he must get away. Walks several miles in the middle of the night to SJC
. Jumps the barb wire fence at 1am in a location that just happens to have the minimum of CCTV coverage. Walk over to a parked 757 and climb into the wheel well for a little snooze. Spend about 7 hours in the wheel well before take off. Over 100 DB, hot wheels into the well at take off did not burn me, 500 knots, 38000 ft., 0 degrees F, 5.5 hours later land in Maui, awaken and climb out refreshed and ready to party. Sorry, I can't believe this actually happened. This is about as keen a mystery as the Bush Gore election.
If 76% of these stowaway incidents resulted in death, that means 24% were surviveable. Not great odds, but better than I would have thought.
Well its a 100% change of being groped by some half brain so I may take the wheel well. Than again I could UPS my self in crate. http://www.foxnews.com/story/2003/09...r-cargo-crate/
