It’s not always a good thing to set a new record. Take the case of a Nigerian woman who customs officials at Dulles International Airport say was busted with a belly full of heroin pellets.

STORY: What In The?!? “Amazing Race” Producer Died From Cocaine In His Stomach?

Authorities say 52-year-old Bola Adebisi set an unfortunate record when she tried to smuggle almost five pounds of heroin into the country.

After ingesting 180 thumb-sized pellets filled with $150,000 worth of heroin, Bola was charged with drug smuggling in federal court.

Officers became suspicious on Saturday when she said she was coming to the U.S. to visit her brother, but couldn’t describe him and after a routine pat-down found her stomach to be abnormally rigid. An X-ray revealed the pellets and she was taken to the hospital.

Last year at the same Dulles airport another Nigerian was discovered with more than four pounds of pellets.
