The inner workings of airport baggage procedures are one of the great mysteries of our time.
Especially because they so often end with a bag somewhere besides in their rightful owner’s possession.
But Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport decided to pull back the curtain and shed a little transparency on things earlier this month by producing an interactive 360-degree video documenting one brave suitcase’s journey from check-in to what we assume is its final destination.
First question: Why hasn’t an amusement park made one of these for people yet?
Second question: What the hell is this terrifying mecha-robot arm thing at the end? That’s the final boss, right?
Third question: No wonder you lose my bags.
Yeah, we’re aware that wasn’t actually a question.
