Seriously, if you haven’t got the guts for heroin smuggling, you really shouldn’t take a job as a drug mule.
Particularly not if there’s turbulence.
A PASSENGER on an Australian-bound plane vomited up a bag of white powder suspected to be heroin, forcing the plane to turn back to Vietnam.
The Vietnam Airlines plane had been flying for an hour after leaving Ho Chi Minh City on Saturday when an Australian man of Vietnamese descent took ill, airline officials told the state-run Tuoi Tre newspaper.
The aircraft turned around and made an emergency landing at Tan Son Nhat Airport, where the man coughed up two more bags of white powder. He was detained by police and taken to hospital.
Another newspaper, Lao Dong, reported that doctors found another 30 bags in the man’s stomach.
It identified him as 35-year-old Nguyen Kant.

Eew. What amazes me is that if one of those bags bursts they’re quite quite dead anyway.
Yes. Some people don’t put a very high price on their own lives. And with what I know of drug dealers, they probably bill the family for the heroin.
Good GAWD! What an insane risk to take.
And yet hundreds do it. Daily. HUNDREDS. I wouldn’t be surprised if some of those in flight fatalities are accidental ODs of mules.
as an australian heading back to vietnam in 3 weeks i will be very very careful who i sit beside
Keep the barf bag handy: you just might earn yourself some hush money!
