A false bottom is an internal partition in a container, typically at the bottom of a drawer, suitcase or similar item, enabling the concealment of objects from a cursory examination of the item's contents. Much like a "panic room" (as featured in the Film Of The Same Name ), the presence of a false bottom can be simply deduced if the internal dimensions of a container do not seem to match its external dimensions after taking into account the thicknesses of consituent materials and structures used to build the object in question. The concept of a false bottom drawing attention during airport security checks has been parodied in various comedy productions, with the literal inclusion of prosthetic buttocks in luggage. |
