[00:46.71]He was astonished at what he found.
[00:50.50]A man was lying in the box on top of a pile of woollen goods.
[00:57.15]He was so surprised at being discovered
[01:00.38]that he did not even try to run away.
[01:04.56]After he was arrested,
[01:07.01]the man admitted hiding in the box before the plane left London.
