More Secret Agent Gadgets





Scienceray has a nice list of "8 Essential Gadgets for a Secret Agent." Some are a little yawn-inspiring. However, a couple are downright FANTASTIC.

For instance, the lock-picking gun shown above is the sort of thing I dream about. (When I'm not having nightmares about giant stingrays.) Unfortunately, the link on the site doesn't appear to work! Will I never be able to get my hands on one of those marvelous gadgets--which I would use not for crime, but for the benefit of all humankind?

    Hehe..Awesome! If you layed your hands on one of those you'd sure feel mighty! (But I wouldn't use it for bad purposes, except force a publisher too publish all of my stories ;)) ( Hmm.. Did i spell Publish right? I'm from sweden so, my english might not be that great...)

    You could dress up in a tight, primary-colored suit and call yourself Lock Gal! Anyone who was locked out of their house would shine the Lock Signal into the sky (and hope it was dark out.) Though you might inadvertantly let a robber in by accident... O_o

    (PS I have an URGENT post on my blog! I need your help!)

    You're right; most of them are really dull.
    But he just messed up the link: if you want to see it, here it is.

    Ms. Bookworm: Your spelling is better than mine!

    Invisible Turtle: A wonderful use of shopdropping!

    Jin Ai: Thanks! I thought the miniature GPS device was rather awesome as well.

    Anonymous: You're a fan of parkour? I'm so impressed. Monsieur Belle is one of my personal heroes. There was a post on this blog about him a little while ago . . .

    They're probably not listed listed for those who won't use them for the better of (most) humankind (like me...oh the possiblities...). By the way I just joined a group called The Irregulars on girlsense.com.

    those gadgets are fantastic! with all of those all you would need was some rope, climbing shoes, er, grapling hook, good runaway clothes, and a backup plan incase anything went awry. brilliant! LLK & LLWS (long live kiki & long live the world of spying!)
