A Canadian company has come up with the concept that everyone on an airplane should wear an anit-hijacking bracelet! The bracelet is, in effect, a taser. The concept is that if someone tries to hijack the plane, crew can zap the would-be hijacker into unconsciousness.

Ignoring the fact that the control unit could go berserk and start shocking people, or the hijackers could figure out a way to control the controller or remove their bracelets, or a flight attendant could go nuts and start shocking people.

Yeah. That's one airline I wouldn't want to fly on. Apparently the company is also a hype-machine and are claiming that TSA is reviewing this thing, TSA says they've never heard of it.

This would be so cool to drive around! And you can buy them cheap, but then you'd have to get a custom paint job.
