Been detained several times at various customs entry points each time for several hours. While it wasn't always fun, it was never that big of a deal to me at least.
Similar treatment, including the full Monty of bend over and spread wide. Frankly, just made the best of it knowing I had nothing to hide, literally and figuratively.
In one instance, it took ~2 hrs with two large customs agents. Did what was asked and clowned around with then during the process, telling them they must get paid the big bucks. Going as far as saying aye wouldn't leave until they would come in for a group hug, and told them my doctor hadn't even seen that much of me. So now that we were so close we were like family. Got my hug while laughing at them, they were not thrilled. As few day later randomly ran into one of them off duty and called him out in front of everyone. Who all laughed at him. Guess one could say aye got the last laugh.
Profiled for having a visible tattoo. Changed my strategy and started wearing button downs and it never happened again in that particular extremely conservative and wealthy country that is well known for their strict customs policy.
Where exactly did that happen? That is not in their job description.Even the police who are there to catch smugglers don’t do that. If it involves bodily cavities they take them to a hospital, they don’t do it at the airport
