Fool Proof Smuggling Idea?

Hey All,
I was just thinking that little indigestible plastic capsules could be a near-perfect smuggling device. These may already exist, but if not, here's what I was hoping for:
They would basically be exactly like the plastic capsules that vitamins and supplements come in, except they would be non-digestible, nontoxic, and would not open up inside of you or allow anything to reach the contents. Perhaps they would screw together to insure a good seal.
Anyone run into these before? They would be ideal for smuggling small amounts of substance or seed, etc.
Thanks.

The biggest problem is simple user error.
Sooner than later you'll hear about someone using these plastic pills to smuggle a kg of coke over the border.
They'll either get poising of some kind, sick from the plastic or they'll get blocked up in the colon.
And no one like a blocked anus

My question exactly. I'm interested because I fly frequently and would like to find a simple way to transport small, personal amounts of substance with me at all times.
If I could load it into a capsules and screw it together then swallow, I'd be safe for some time.
Retrieving the items wouldn't be so pretty though, but oh well.
Also, as long as you only used a few capsules, there would be no prob with blockage. I've had a doctor send a non-digestible plastic capsules through me before. It contained a camera and was for a colon inspection. So, they do exist.

Any chance you could show a pic?
One with it open, the other with it screwed together?
A five shroom rating is in it for you...

It would be very easy for me to make any size little metal containers.
Its not like you could swallow it though, and take shit through an airport, as wouldn't an xray or maybe even the metal detector pick up on that?
Maybe if one was planning on swallowing the container it would be better made from plastic like nylon or delrin.
Hmmmm.

Exactly.
See this:
http://www.uihealthcare.com/news/pacemaker/2004/summer/camerainapill.html
The casing for this camera is plastic, nontoxic, non digestive, and just flows with the tide of digestion.
I would simply need a version in which you could screw the two halves together.

If one actually planned to smuggle anything substantial, it would have to be a bit bigger.
Wonder how big, is too big?
Would just have to figure exactly which form of plastic wont break down.
On that thought we have a neighbor who manufactures endoscopy things. This stuff is made from some form of delrin. Dont know if that would viable option or not, since during endoscopy work the plastic is only exposed to digestive juices a short amount of time.
Hmm. well i guess it would have to be resistant then?

Thanks a lot man!
No all I need you to do is swallow it and walk through a metal detector...see what happens. 
That's a nifty little trinket. Does it seem watertight when it's screwed together?
All I need is a plastic version of your toy.

I'd go for it. Seriously 
I could make it back fairly quickly. I was more interested in transporting small, personal amounts of substance, along with seeds.

FYI, thats a Nitroglycerin pill container.
My dad has one on his keychain too. The idea is that someone with certain types of heart disease needs to carry a kind of medicine with them at all times. Nitroglycerin will apparently stop a heart-attack in its tracks, but needs to be taken almost immediately. For this reason, many people carry the pills around on a keychain. But Nitroglycerin is very sensitive to air/moisture, so that container should indeed be watertight.
Peace.
