Security is getting stricter and stricter in airports all around the world.

Since the beginning of the 2000s, incredibly thorough body searches have become more and more of a common occurrence to ensure the security and safety of airports. Each passenger is subjected to this search, with at least some degree of reluctance, but sometimes, these searches can turn out to be incredibly embarrassing.
One man was made to take off his jeans in the middle of the crowd of people around him, another woman had to remove her top and some security guard even have to touch passengers’ more intimate areas during their searches. Situations like these happen quite frequently, so we’ve put together a collection of photos for your viewing pleasure.
One thing is for sure, just like everyone who flies from time to time, you probably also have your own stories about being frisked at the airport.
Check out the photos of some of the more embarrassing situations in our slideshow below.
