Corbett insists that he made the above video to show why the scanners are ineffective, not to help terrorists. He has raised some eyebrows, and, unsurprisingly, has also attracted criticism. "It's not a valid test," one airport spokesman told The Guardian. "To say this [...] undermines airport security technology is totally wrong."
