Bonus: Other Life-Saving Boxes

A first aid kit with a jar of coffeee inside (2002).

Quick!! I need the defib pronto...ah priorities, first aid coffee, just a moment please while we brew... (Cambridge, U.K., 2002).

A box at Stockholm Arlanda Airport ARN to deposit any tear gas or pepper spray that you are bringing into the country (2012).

Fair enough, but this box is placed before the luggage carousel at Stockholm Arlanda Airport ARN. If you were not able to bring the tear gas or pepper spray in your hand luggage, then after claiming your bag(s), you need to trek back to this box to deposit any tear gas or pepper spray from your checked bags. In any case, I was transiting to a domestic flight and, unfortunately, I could not find an equivalent box at Luleå Airport LLA (2012).



A bin in the street stating Get a life, Bin that Knife (2014).

Welcome to the safe part of town (London, U.K., 2014).
