This guy’s no Harry Houdini!
A 21-year-old man’s disappearing act nearly got him into Switzerland, but border patrol officers figured out his trick before he made it across.
Guards were performing a routine check Monday at Chiasso, Switzerland — a small town just beyond the Italian border — when they noticed an oddly shaped suitcase that was unusually heavy, according to The Local.
Video uploaded to YouTube, which has nearly 10,000 views, shows that when they opened up the black bag, the contorted man wriggled his head out and tried to unzip himself.
One of the officers helped him finish unzipping it — and then sent him and his pal, who was traveling legally through the country, back to Italy.
