Eight cast and crew members of the Australian television show The Chaser successfully breached the security surrounding the APEC sumit meeting in Sydney, Australia.

Using a cavalcade of three cars and two motorcycles branded with the Canadian Flag, the crew passed through two security check points before being stopped outside the InterContinental Hotel where United States President George W Bush was staying.

Eleven people have been charged over the incident, the eight cast and crew members and the three drivers. Comedian and cast member Chas Licciardello was dressed up as Osama bin Laden during the event.

All 11 have been bailed to appear in court on October 4, 2007.
