A Hong Kong man attempted to cross the Chinese border with 94 iPhones strapped all over his body -- and the customs check went just as you might expect.
The phones were strapped to his torso, legs and groin, according to a Chinese news report. The pictures show that he was stocked with iPhone 6 models.

But the man's iPhone suit was no match for the customs officials, who noticed his bizarre posture and weird walk (and then there's the issue of the metal detector at Futian Port).
The phones are available for purchase at Apple Stores in China; the devices launched in the country in mid-October. Of course, iPhone smugglers are known to exist in China. Initially, the going rate for an iPhone 6 there was thousands of dollars under the table.
While the man could have presumably made a hefty profit, it's unclear where the iPhones were purchased from. Customs officials estimated to CNN that the total value of the phones surpassed $49,000.
The iPhone man, who's had problems at the border in the past, was held for questioning, but his current status is not clear.
