A traveler at the Sydney Airport in Australia caused a security scare that resulted in the evacuation of an entire terminal because he was too busy looking at his iPad to notice he'd walked into the terminal without passing through the appropriate security screening.

The man had reportedly been too enamored with his iPad screen (Candy Crush? Twitter? porn?) to realize what he'd done. He'd entered the terminal through a passage marked "EXIT" because man, iPads are captivating, have you seen the new operating system, ooh a new Facebook notification. His image was then picked up on security cameras, which caused staff to go on the alert.

The terminal that the man entered was evacuated, causing an hour delay and forcing other passengers to be rescreened before boarding their flights.
