How can they unscrew the fuse from a WW2 bomb that was rotting under the ground or in water for 80 years, when you may have to use brutal force, heat, etc to remove bolts from a 10-year-old car (and the bolt will snap anyway)?

Question

I would expect that you wouldn’t be able to loosen anything on an old, rusty bomb, especially that it is so unstable and can go off anytime.

Answer 1

If you were european you wold know.

Every now and then some excavations for whatever reason brings back some sort of bomb from WW2.

The process is:

– Evacuate 5 blocks
– detonate the bomb
– search for nearby threats
– everything goes back to normal.
