Isn’t it funny how on TV shows such as Prison Break, 24 and Chuck even the most advanced Home Security Systems are taken out of action — if you believed every thing you see on the television you’d probably decide not to bother even having one!

You have eye recognition Home Security? Big whoop, according to Chuck a few episodes ago someone can just knock you out, photograph your eye, imprint it onto a contact lens and use that to gain entry.

Paid lots of money for the Best Home Security Surveillance System? Well that’s no good, according to Prison Break if you cause a distraction all cameras and security guys will focus on that, allowing you free run of the place.

My favourite was also in Prison Break, where they broke into a safe by simply drilling a hole into the lock.

I guess you have to forgive them, as they need to be able to do this for the plot to advance — there wouldn’t be much of a story if they couldn’t get somewhere they needed to be because they couldn’t break the security system. But it is amusing.

Thankfully actual effective home security systems do exist here in the real world like the ones from www.beachcitiesprotectiveservices.com
