This is from the nineteen sixties, 55 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 1: filled with escape tools, not stools, This rectal toolkit. Come on, 56 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 1: anyone got a hammer? Could be stashed stashed? Could it 57 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 1: be stashed inside the body where it could not be 58 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 1: found during a search. This gadget was issued to the 59 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 1: CIA operatives during the height of the Cold War. So 60 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 1: it's got it's a pill shaped container.

Imagine that job. Designed a unique escape tool 70 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: because they wanted to conceal a radio. He made a 71 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: scrotum concealment device. Have a look at this. It's a 72 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: fake scrotum and this latex gadget was hid an escape 73 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: radio in a location that would go undertected even during 74 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: strip searches. So you put that over your actual actual 75 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: scrotum and then the molded from real anatomy. Imagine that job. 76 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: It was intended for pilots, but never used beyond its 77 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: prototype stage. The device is now displayed at the Spy Museum. 78 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: What's the size of a scrotum? But look, the radio 79 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: looks like the size of a packet of cigarettes. It 80 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: must look like I've got enormous sack. 81 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 2: Laws in here, and whatever happens tickets. 82 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 1: I like this bit. It was reportedly rejected after the 83 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: CIA director blushed during its demonstration. And now some rockshead 84 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: not in my mind. If what is go to the bathroom, 85 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 1: I want to pass a tool. Fascinating history is If 86 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,039 Speaker 1: they taught history like that in school, it's so much better.
