I don't know exactly why but I nearly fell out of my chair laughing the first time I read this

He was spotted by a deliveryman who noticed a pair of eyes staring at him through the wooden slats in the crate and then called police.

Probably not much.  Seems stupid, but then again there are lots of stupid people in the world.    ***looks in mirror***

"perhaps with the help of a friend"
No? Really?
I thought he used his telekinetic powers to get to the airport, and pay for the shipping from inside the box.

I think it might be possible actually if you attach something to the inside of the crate lid to grip on to. :D
