What I love most is that not only does he get in, but it’s done in such an artful way to make a fool of the security. Like he didn’t HAVE to put 12345678. Didn’t HAVE to go to a public place to print the pass and draw attention to himself by talking to a camera. Didn’t HAVE to put “international baddie”. But he did and they still didn’t catch on.
I think so one cares. Security expos are for vendors to sell in wholesale to companies/government bodies. The goal isn’t to secure the building the goal is to sell products.
@@kalebnelson4569 so you think that someone who won’t pay for a ticket to get is going to buy wholesale security equipment? Do you think that’s good marketing to be selling security equipment if you can’t even keep the event secure? Also he could have had weapons. They would have cared then
To be fair, Max is testing the security, and if he was a nobody then no one would recognize him, the fans are just doing their duty to not break the test.
@@shybandit521 Yeah, either they're there as professionals and can't wait to rub the video in the face of the convention organisers who promised tight security... or they're fellow pen stealers, and don't want to blow their own cover on the international pen smuggling ring.

I'm hesitant to classify this as black hat, because this sort of thing does amplify security awareness among a group of people who's exposure likely consists of VPN ads on youtube.
@@kenanderson3954if we want to get technical he’s a green hat (social engineering, nothing technical done) but out of the three I could see him as a gray hat, especially since it’s just curiosity
I think that the international security expo shouldn’t sell tickets. You MUST break in. All the infrastructure is there for a normal convention, but you just cannot access the tickets by buying them. You have to hack, cheat, copy, steal, whatever to get past security (who are trained as if it’s a normal expo) You can tell how good security is by how many people show up
Naw. If you get caught, you have to buy a ticket. The further in you get, the more discount on the ticket price! Then people can still get in and vendors still want to be there
The guy who clearly knew who you were but played along as soon as you told him your fake name is a legend that shall forever live on in my heart Edit: For context as to the cacophony that is the replies, my name is Ethan Shaw and that was my account name before I changed it just now.
lol the funniest thing is that some people inside the convention were like "hey Max?" and he answered "no Nick" and they replied "ehh okay Nick?" that was freaking hilarious haha
Tbh at this point if you run a security convention and you don’t already have a photo of Max on the wall with the caption “DO NOT LET IN”, you deserve it
Some conventions have a flip book of faces, cause Max Fosh is the least of your worries. Prior trespassers, troublemakers or such are more of an issue to worry about xD
nono, what they should do is let him in knowingly, and have a ton of people asking him friendly questions inside. Bound to make Nick E. nervous. pull the uno reverse.
I think what makes this most funny is how max ran into some of his fans at the convention and it was just a mutual thing where they just instantly understood what was going on and don't blow his cover
4:55 I do event security as a side job to pay my degree (concerts, festivals, etc) and we specifically got told to never post any form of accreditation on social media because of how easy it is to copy it and photoshop it. It's crazy that people attending a security convention don't know this lol
The fact that the QR code on his pass was actually a link to his website was just the perfect extra touch. I can imagine a security guard scanning it and just going, "What?" as Max just makes a break for it
Next challenge. Go to defcon, find a time when one of the presentation areas are not in use, set up fake signs for a speech on how easy it is to just walk past security and get into places you shouldn't.
Even though it's meant to be just entertaining it actually does good job highlighting what kind of factors make a good con man. This is very educational and I'm sure many people from that convention can learn a lot from harmless videos like this. Great job Max, really impressive.
This video was very misleading. I was there and paid nothing to get in. The $1000 badge shown was for education sessions over the course of 3 days, not the general show floor access which is all he did. No one in the 5 years I've attended has ever scanned a QR code on my badge to get in so that was a flat out lie. Not trying to be a Debbie downer, but I just hate when people manufacture nonsense and sell it off to others.
@@jaredroberts8199 most of us know that most of max's video's work on technicalities, of course he didnt actually break in, but it's entertainment because it feels like he did
yeah but let's be honest, busy looking guy on phone is as wel known as high vis and clipboard on the list of ALWAYS check them because it's the most wel known trick in the book
Tbh the whole walk in with the confidence that you’re supposed to be somewhere while simultaneously being “on the phone” & you can get into most places I’ve found out over time. & the few times it doesn’t work you just pull the “oh sorry am I in the wrong spot? Must’ve got distracted while on the phone” & swiftly WALK AWAY 💀
That’s also how you can get better seats on a plane. Board towards the end and just take whatever seat you want in the general section you booked (economy, buisness, etc) and if nobody tries to sit down in that seat, you get to keep it. If someone does, you can just say oh, this is 34A? Sorry, I thought it was 34D and then you just go to your actual seat. Since nobody actually checks your in the right seat as long as there’s no issues with someone else trying to sit in that seat, it’s not hard to sit in a different one
@@staycgirlsitsgoingdown2 I tried that and some new flight attendant kicked me out of my seat on a nearly empty flight. It must be an unspoken thing the veteran attendants turn a blind eye to.
@@sharpieman2035 on a nearly empty flight, where people are sitting is a lot more important for the balance of the aircraft. It's way more obvious when someone is sitting where they're not supposed to be because they know how the seating distribution should look for the aircraft to be balanced, so you stick out like a sore thumb.
And then you can pull the bonus gambit of "Congratulations! I was here to test your security and you passed! I also need to test the security further in though, if that's alright with you"
I know this is a joke but real pentesters always carry a "Scope of Work" document signed by someone higher up in the company explaining what they are and are not allowed to get into, and it functions as a get-out-of-jail-free card.

I love that I’ve literally been to a My Little Pony convention and a LARP that both had more security then two international security conventions. Good way to get free stuff and even food at this one for near pennies maybe I’ll become an international bad girl!
Confidence and politeness can get you pretty much anywhere. If you're confident, people won't suspect you, and if you're polite, people won't *want* to suspect you.
I like how I'm expecting Max to go: "I found a back entrance in the kitchen, and quickly hurried through to the event before anyone noticed." When in reality it's: "I just walked through the main security checkpoint and didn't stop" 😂
the most important key to getting into places you don't belong is to look and act like you belong there and have 0 doubt that you'll be let alone to enter.
The fact that you travelled all the way to Las Vegas without even knowing that you were gonna get in just shows how much you're dedicated to making awesome videos! You have my respect Max, you absolute legend
Just stopping by to say your content is amazing. I came across this video yesterday and have binged so many more since then. You’re like Mr. Beast but genuine and your ideas are simply the best. Cannot wait to see what other silly ideas you pull off next.
I was just surprised when I found out you weren’t the guy that got a hold of a bunch of top level documents in the recent intelligence leak. Probably would’ve been easier than getting into this convention honestly.
You mean, the only CZcamsr who goes from breaking into a security convention to spoiling movie on bald man's head to breaking into a security convention again
Why did you comment this on the one video which isn't a new idea, he's literally done this before. This is the only video you could have commented it on which would actually prove the opposite to what you are trying to say....
@@ster2600 CZcams comment sections have a plague of people who post generic, complimentary comments as soon as a video goes up, before they've even watched it. They hope that by being first, they'll get a lot of likes, and maybe even that sweet, sweet heart if they manage to be one of the top comments.
These events aren't meant to be secure. They're public. What Max did was like breaking into a car expo. You don't have to be an automotive executive to attend, you just have to purchase a ticket.
@@BisexualPlagueDoctor Why? What are they protecting exactly? Do you believe that a bunch of demo security systems (which may be non-functional, or cannot be used outside of the convention) and information pamphlets requires a high level of security? Why would you expect it to be more secure than a car convention w/ millions of dollars worth of vehicles on display? Expecting "good" security at a public convention doesn't make any sense any way you look at it, kiddo lol.
@@cannotfigureoutaname I've worked at these, and similar events as a vendor. Go to one, even if it's only as a member of the public. You'll quickly realize that it's you that didn't get it :b. And you need more going on in your life if you browsed through thousands of comments just to seek validation, or if you read my comment, felt dumb, and decided to go on the offensive haha.
I think the guard filming couldn't hear what Max was saying. He was speaking into his lapel microphone and you can see he increases his speaking volume when thanking the guard
That’s a good point they probably can’t hear jack shit he stands pretty far away. I also noticed the shot cuts away to b roll of him breaking in for the entirety of his line where he says that he broke in. I mean would he really say that to a security guard because that could absolutely send him to the literal Las Vegas jail if it went wrong
@@apollo6326 because 1. they have to rent the place. I'm sure the Venetian Hotel isn't cheap, 2. they ironically have to pay for security, which also isn't cheap. 3. I bet 99% of people there are all paid for by their company, so when companies pay for things, they jack up the price to whatever they think they can get away with. I would like to know how much profit they made of this though.
you're so good at sneaking in those adverts! I stick around thinking about how you got me, while the advertisement plays and sinks into my subconscious... 😕
Can I just say... I went to a theatre conference with stricter security for pass pick up. We asked about alternate entrances, and the guards said they would not disclose the answer without seeing our passes lol
Lol, my company had the Latte booth and totally missed you! Very entertaining and not to downplay Max's accomplishment.. but for those interested in attending, exhibits only is $50 or free if you contact a vendor for a registration link.
If I had a nickel for every time Max Fosh broke into a security convention, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice
@@eamonburns9597im fairly confident that hes gotten into at least one more but was forced to leave too early for a video. Honestly hopefully max ISNT batting 1000 when it comes to breaking into security conventions
@@plutonicattic7995 I think if he had failed to get into one before either of the videos, he would have stopped there. This is the kind of thing where you *probably* don't want to get caught multiple times.
There is a branch of cybersecurity that deals with physical pentesting. they litteraly break into companys as a job (but its legal because they get hired to do so by the companys themselves)
Well, the ISC is a trade show, not some high level security conference. Almost everything is about selling products, so they're happy to have you. Almost anyone can get a free pass from any of the exhibitor websites.
As someone who has gone and worked at these events it's super easy to walk in!!!! I know many people who pick up a random discarded badge and go to events. Just know to everyone they are not secured and the badge scanners don't get paid enough to make sure everyone is legit.
While I was in college, we had a smaller cybersecurity convention in a nearby city. My IT professor told everyone going to leave their phones at home because the second you walk in, your phone would likely be hacked. He said that he did a test a few years ago and brought in a bunch of phones, including ones that were shut down. They were all hacked.
In french "nique" (same pronunciation as "nick) means "f*ck" So for a french guy like me you just entered a US security convention with the name "f*ck everything"
Man these videos always make me think of the of pre internet/information era stories of people sneaking their way into everywhere and i love that you (moderately responsibly) keep that alive. Makes me giddy and want to go on an adventure like that every time
i genuinely hope that if ever any trouble is to come from this then these people will take a step back and realise that maybe... this is their issue !!!! brilliant video
This is actually really interesting, there's been all these video blowing up about the hak5 stuff and flipper zero but social engineering is a huge vulnerability 90% of people are vulnerable to. You see someone doing what everybody else is doing why would you stop them

Strange, it appears that my device is showing the word “Penaldo” as Messi. Maybe this is a mistake on your part? Could you resend this message
This man is the embodiment of can't be arrested if you have good intentions
This shows the importance of confidence when trying to get through security: just pretend like you're on the phone and they just let you through lmao
stride with confidence and purpose
I tried to do that. turns out, pretending to be on the phone at police check point while you're driving is not very good idea.
@@magik2953 🤣🤣🤣
Confidence and politeness can get you pretty much anywhere. If you're confident, people won't suspect you, and if you're polite, people won't *want* to suspect you.
That was the ballsiest commercial transition I've seen in a while.
And ending.
Then you gotta watch the one where he is suing his sister
Unironically, the biggest risk to any security system is people.
You'd be surprised how far a right-ish set of clothing and an ipad get you.
Max truly is the epitome of Chaotic Neutral
As a cybersecurity red teamer myself, this warms my heart. Well done bro.
maybe surfshark hooked him up with a get out of jail free entry ticket (they weren’t exhibiting from what i can see though)
What’s that mean? Is read team the “bad guys” who test security?
Sounds like fun
@@HansHammertime Yeah kinda. :) Red team is the "adversary" trying to break security while blue team is the defenders trying to secure stuff.
@@HansHammertime More like good guys acting as bad guys to test security
🐅team.
I'm glad to see max expressing his true britishness by taking all the free stuff.
The British museum is filled by his ancestors that clearly did the same.
he was there to knick everything in the end
Everything is free if you just refuse to pay for it!
@@n_mckeanikr the British museum is epic
Okay, seeing that short shopping sequence at 6:17 I definitely want a video of Max commenting shirt overprints for at least 20 minutes 😂
Max isn't a international baddie, he is the international baddie
I like how I'm expecting Max to go: "I found a back entrance in the kitchen, and quickly hurried through to the event before anyone noticed."
When in reality it's: "I just walked through the main security checkpoint and didn't stop" 😂
the most important key to getting into places you don't belong is to look and act like you belong there and have 0 doubt that you'll be let alone to enter.
The fact that you travelled all the way to Las Vegas without even knowing that you were gonna get in just shows how much you're dedicated to making awesome videos! You have my respect Max, you absolute legend
The alternative video of him getting arrested for trespassing would also be good content. Win-win. 😄
well, i think he would've gone in either way, if he couldn't sneak in he would've bought a pass. He did that for the UK one too.
Great excuse to use a Vegas trip as a business expense 😉😂
Just stopping by to say your content is amazing. I came across this video yesterday and have binged so many more since then. You’re like Mr. Beast but genuine and your ideas are simply the best. Cannot wait to see what other silly ideas you pull off next.
I was just surprised when I found out you weren’t the guy that got a hold of a bunch of top level documents in the recent intelligence leak. Probably would’ve been easier than getting into this convention honestly.
That guy who recognized him MUST know Max broke into the ISC before. How did he just walk away when Max said his name was Nick? 😆
My bet is he was playing along in order to not mess anything up for the video. Wouldn't be surprised if he understood the "Nick" reference as well.
Simple. Man decided it was funnier to just watch it play out, and he was right
I think he might have also been a fan
The only CZcamsr who goes from spoiling movie on bald man's head to breaking to security convention, Max is neighbor's kid in adult form
I see you everywhere
@@flippypenuin2605 Yeah, this guy is wasting his free time by trying to be like Justin Y.
@@ItsKevin183 you can't waste your freetime if you do something that you wanna do.
@Don't Read My Profile Picture i did and now what
You mean, the only CZcamsr who goes from breaking into a security convention to spoiling movie on bald man's head to breaking into a security convention again
Next episode: Today i robbed a bank for a kitty Kat bracelet
Dude that compositing on the last shot almost got me. Great video!! Would love to see you try Defcon like someone mentioned
Convinced this fella won’t ever run out of ideas 😂 Great video as always Max!
he''s gonna sneak into a super max prison or fort knox eventually
Why did you comment this on the one video which isn't a new idea, he's literally done this before. This is the only video you could have commented it on which would actually prove the opposite to what you are trying to say....
@@ster2600 he was flirting i think
I mean this is the same idea twice
@@ster2600 CZcams comment sections have a plague of people who post generic, complimentary comments as soon as a video goes up, before they've even watched it. They hope that by being first, they'll get a lot of likes, and maybe even that sweet, sweet heart if they manage to be one of the top comments.
i love how the attendees that recognized him knew exactly what he was up to
These events aren't meant to be secure. They're public. What Max did was like breaking into a car expo. You don't have to be an automotive executive to attend, you just have to purchase a ticket.
@@K-Fedthe point is that it is a SECURITY CONVENTION
You would expect good security
@@BisexualPlagueDoctor Why? What are they protecting exactly? Do you believe that a bunch of demo security systems (which may be non-functional, or cannot be used outside of the convention) and information pamphlets requires a high level of security? Why would you expect it to be more secure than a car convention w/ millions of dollars worth of vehicles on display? Expecting "good" security at a public convention doesn't make any sense any way you look at it, kiddo lol.
@@K-FedFinally, I finally found you! I had to scroll the entire comment section to find the guy who didn't get it!
@@cannotfigureoutaname I've worked at these, and similar events as a vendor. Go to one, even if it's only as a member of the public. You'll quickly realize that it's you that didn't get it :b.
And you need more going on in your life if you browsed through thousands of comments just to seek validation, or if you read my comment, felt dumb, and decided to go on the offensive haha.
You are recreating one of my favourite DEFCON lectures, and I am so happy. Tech can't beat confidence. What a joke.
Max is my favorite man who breaks into secured building
In all honesty, Max just gives me stuff out of the ordinary to watch, and typically laugh at
LMAO, I loved that he said straight out that he broke in and fakes his badge, TO A SECURITY GUARD!!!! and he just said have fun.
I think the guard filming couldn't hear what Max was saying. He was speaking into his lapel microphone and you can see he increases his speaking volume when thanking the guard
@@Affews100Nice catch
@@Affews100 good point 👍
In the previous video he did the same thing, the guard just didn't hear him because he was only speaking loud enough for the lapel mic to pick him up.
That’s a good point they probably can’t hear jack shit he stands pretty far away. I also noticed the shot cuts away to b roll of him breaking in for the entirety of his line where he says that he broke in. I mean would he really say that to a security guard because that could absolutely send him to the literal Las Vegas jail if it went wrong
I love how the "look and act like them" tactic still works so remarkably well if you pull it off confidently enough.
Much respect brother

This is the best rendition of “reflective vest, hard hat, and clipboard” I’ve seen in a while, and I’m here for it!
I continue to be surprised that a literal security expo is less secure than the anime convention I went to over the weekend
Because neither this convention nor the previous one he infiltrated are actually private. They are both open to anyone and are cost free to attend.
Their is nothing to protect, other than not paying the fee and getting a free coffee
@@tmdiz4579 how come it said it cost £800?
@@apollo6326 because
1. they have to rent the place. I'm sure the Venetian Hotel isn't cheap,
2. they ironically have to pay for security, which also isn't cheap.
3. I bet 99% of people there are all paid for by their company, so when companies pay for things, they jack up the price to whatever they think they can get away with.
I would like to know how much profit they made of this though.
@@tmdiz4579 "cost free to attend"? It literally listed the prices for tickets on the website...
This guy is literally who I think of when people say “Fake it until you can make it”
you're so good at sneaking in those adverts! I stick around thinking about how you got me, while the advertisement plays and sinks into my subconscious... 😕
Can I just say... I went to a theatre conference with stricter security for pass pick up. We asked about alternate entrances, and the guards said they would not disclose the answer without seeing our passes lol
stricter concerts... they have metal detector at Backstreet Boys concert
Crazed fans are more dangerous than actual criminals.
I am now convinced that there is nothing that Max can not do😂
He can't eat monkey poop
"Yep, no, but i thought absolutely" 😂 awesome phone call very creative
Lol, my company had the Latte booth and totally missed you! Very entertaining and not to downplay Max's accomplishment.. but for those interested in attending, exhibits only is $50 or free if you contact a vendor for a registration link.
Max?
No sorry, Nick
Do I know you?
No, but I’ve seen you
😂😂😂
He’s truly is an international Baddie!
If I had a nickel for every time Max Fosh broke into a security convention, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice
Who knows? Maybe it's up to three by now.
@@eamonburns9597im fairly confident that hes gotten into at least one more but was forced to leave too early for a video.
Honestly hopefully max ISNT batting 1000 when it comes to breaking into security conventions
@@plutonicattic7995 I think if he had failed to get into one before either of the videos, he would have stopped there. This is the kind of thing where you *probably* don't want to get caught multiple times.
@@eamonburns9597 i mean like hes got into one and got escorted out or couldnt post a video because cameras werent allowed
another security expo... man, Max surely love these expos
that sponsorship transition was a work of art.
The fact that this video ended abruptly is a bit terrifying. You good Max?
Probably read up on the CZcams algorithm that quick-ending videos give less chance for people to abandon and so helps your completion rates.
@Nathan McKean He took off his shirt revealing a prisoner outfit, and then it ends. It certainly leaves a lot to question.
Well his Surfshark ad does say he's now in jail ...
I really hope there is a presentation at the US version on 'How Max Fosh broke into the UK Expo and how to prevent it' 😂
There is a branch of cybersecurity that deals with physical pentesting. they litteraly break into companys as a job (but its legal because they get hired to do so by the companys themselves)
Well, the ISC is a trade show, not some high level security conference. Almost everything is about selling products, so they're happy to have you. Almost anyone can get a free pass from any of the exhibitor websites.
As someone who was there this video annoyed me. Anyone could have done what he did.
@@jaredroberts8199still funny
Your sponsored segments are always at unexpected moments and I love it.
At the next security expo they shouldnt even bother to keep max out. They should just invite him to do a talk.
As someone who has gone and worked at these events it's super easy to walk in!!!! I know many people who pick up a random discarded badge and go to events. Just know to everyone they are not secured and the badge scanners don't get paid enough to make sure everyone is legit.
“ 10 points to Gryffindor!” dude, just summoned the whole fandom
Such an abrupt end!
What we didn't see was security tackling him down some stairs 🤣
I like how he's literally sneaking into a security convention but is sponsored by a VPN lol
HE CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS!!!
That add slip was so good i watched the whole thing
9:46 I now aspire to have a secure laugh
While I was in college, we had a smaller cybersecurity convention in a nearby city. My IT professor told everyone going to leave their phones at home because the second you walk in, your phone would likely be hacked. He said that he did a test a few years ago and brought in a bunch of phones, including ones that were shut down. They were all hacked.
Yeah we all know the Jedi can hack phones that are turned off
Those with more money bring a 'burner phone' to a conference.
@@mkontent If the battery isn't disconnected it's never truly "off"
You sure that wasnt a lie to maybe prevent people from taking videos or photos..?
Bluntest lie ever. That's not how hacking works
In french "nique" (same pronunciation as "nick) means "f*ck"
So for a french guy like me you just entered a US security convention with the name "f*ck everything"
reminds me of when the original name for bing was bang meaning the slogan was "just bang it"
Buddy! You're as crazy as hilarious!!! Loved your video!
Max asking security if there is surfshark is mad 😂
Man these videos always make me think of the of pre internet/information era stories of people sneaking their way into everywhere and i love that you (moderately responsibly) keep that alive. Makes me giddy and want to go on an adventure like that every time
That was smooth walking right past the security scanner while on the phone, well done.
0:53 as a US citizen, hearing you say our country name like that makes me hella proud! ❤

Last time you were actually more of a national baddie, but this time you truly deserve the "international" title
You're interesting to watch and I learn so much English of you. Keep being this funny and full of imagination :)) Greetings from Slovenia.
I hope the breaking out of prison video will be this awesome as well!
3:21 this is why Max should be the next James Bond
i genuinely hope that if ever any trouble is to come from this then these people will take a step back and realise that maybe... this is their issue !!!! brilliant video
This is actually really interesting, there's been all these video blowing up about the hak5 stuff and flipper zero but social engineering is a huge vulnerability 90% of people are vulnerable to. You see someone doing what everybody else is doing why would you stop them
try do more of these see what conventions you can get into
