| The funny thing is, it's not the ones you would expect. When you picture hardcore border control officers lording their power over frightened travellers, it's usually in authoritarian countries like Russia or China, or somewhere notoriously dangerous like Colombia or Egypt.
Death stares. Surly attitudes. Intense questioning. Guns on hips, locked and loaded.
But that's not really the case. The Russians aren't so bad. The Chinese border guards can be pretty friendly. Colombia and Egypt? No worries.
If you want to find truly badass border control staff, you need to look closer to home. The people who will frighten you most aren't far away – in fact they're probably just down the road at your nearest airport.
