Amazing.... all these years later and someone finds it

I have this mental audio of a duck running as fast as it can screaming 'ack..ack..ack..ack..ack'

Got a fright as I watched that. :O Big bang outside. Kids setting off a firework. Halloween is not far away.
It's still very common to find bombs in Germany. Three bomb disposal experts were killed in June there. Imagine people still being killed by WW2 after all these years. Apparently the bombs are getting more unstable as the years go on. There are people alive now who will be killed by WW2. A scary thought.

That's crazy. They still find and dispose of Civil War era ordinance once in a while. Scary to think about that.

Boom :O

Makes you wonder how our AHII Tigers survive a 1000lb if that was only a 500lb that was muzzled some what.

I used to love Liveleak but my old pc caught something from it and died at too young an age.

They find undetonated bombs down there almost weekly still. You guys hauled in so many that all of them will never be found. There surely are still several apartment complexes sitting on top of undetonated ww2 bombs. They're usually found when doing excavations for repairs.

Interesting subject!
Here's a few pics of a SC500 (That German 500kg general purpose bomb found also from AH) going off in Liperi, Finland two years ago. The bombs (2x250kg + 2x500kg) were in shallow lake at a charshed site of a Finnish Airforce Ju-88. It crashed there during the summer of '44 after ending up in a prop wake of a another Ju-88 as the formation was climbing to the target.

seldom somebody is killed by one. I wonder how they found that WWII bomb?
