Bomb scare

Yes, it was the real thing but not what you'd expect. We've, however, not experienced it but heard about it on the news. It was not close to where we live. Apparently an American WWII airplane bomb was found at a construction site about 7 meters underground. Since it was unstable, they had to deactivate it on-site so the entire block was evacuated as a precaution. To make things more interesting, this was the 4th WWII bomb found at the same construction site. I sure would hate to be a construction worker there.

One would think that WWII was such a long time ago and long forgotten ago but every few years new findings are still made.
