Big Brother house hit by security breach as drone flies in
According to The Sun, BB house was ‘locked down’ after the security breach where a YouTuber flew a drone over the house. He claimed that he hacked Big Brother’s radio systems and listened in on the conversation between crew that left bosses panicked and stunned.
Worried crew confronted the man who attempted the security breach and attempted to ‘usher him away and prevent a breach but the man refused to leave.’ However, the intruder refused to leave and continued filming as he shouted:
I will defend myself.

The YouTuber told the BB crew that he was on a public highway and his stunt was a ‘fair game.’ Meanwhile, a BB spokesperson said:
We have robust and rigorous security measures in place across our site for the safety of the Big Brother house, production team and Housemates.
Safety and welfare is always a priority.
The YouTuber who did the stunt was DJ Audits as he shared the full version of what went on his YouTube channel.
Many fans took to comments to share that he did nothing wrong as he was filming on a public road. They said:
Why do these clowns think they own the public roads ?..
Really interesting video and you stood up for your rights brilliantly. All the security except the guy next to the gas thingy were attempting to intimidate you whilst you were on public land! Really unprofessional. One or two were borderline threatening you. They should lose their badges.
As a fan of Big Brother, and someone who had a great day out at auditions years ago, thank you so much for giving an aerial view of the latest house!!!! Such a shame to see the bad response from the security and staff, but wow, to see it from the air shows that it is much smaller than it appeared on launch night and the shows afterwards!! Excellent, keep up the good work DJ!
