China is so nerdy. Instead of stuffing their mules with pellets full of heroin like regular criminals, Chinese smugglers are apparently just slapping dozens of iPhones onto themselves, then trying (and failing) to get through airport security. Like this idiot with 30+ iPhone 4S handsets on his person.

The take? The 4S sells for $125 more on the mainland than it does in Hong Kong, so if you make it across, you’ve got a nice little payday. Yes, there are far worse ways to mule an iPhone somewhere it shouldn’t be, but, 30 iPhones is still 29 more iPhones than you expect to see on a human being. [YouTube, LiveLeak]
