My head was in my hand after seeing this man grab a bouncing betty/s-mine by the fuse and casually toss it around on the floor. Makes it better when he's like "Incredible condition"

The russians seem to have ran out of fucks somewhere around 1917. And they never asked for a refill. They have no fucks to give.

Many of those personnel mines are still working. Are you not afraid of walking around in the forest accidentally triggering one? I'm an Army engineer and would have handled those mines with a little more care.

Not just the risk of handling decaying ordinance some mines had anti-tampering/secondary triggers.

@dictator9849 7 ай бұрын

Exactly what I was thinking. The guy has some idea of the danger based on his comment about drowning them later. Last thing I would be doing is digging these up with no protection, a knife, and shovel.

Also, some of those mines my be booby trapped. And from the looks of a few, are still possibly active, they're in very good condition. The wax sealing is still apparent. I guess he "knows" what he's doing, but sure seems to be he's maybe being a little bit cavalier about these munitions.

@bigbasil1908 7 ай бұрын

If it were me I'd stand a distance back and try to throw a rock at the detonator to find out if it can explode or not. Years back I found a mills b0mb hand grenade that had the metal strip/spoon missing but the split pin was still in it. I unscrewed the filling plate and there was no cordite in it but there is always the problem of the detonator which could still blow the grenade apart if it's still active. When I found the thing about a foot under the surface, it was like a large rusty egg that smelled a fair bit of sulphur and I knew straight away what I had found. I carefully scraped the thing back to metal and yep it was a mills grenade. Cast iron seems to last a long time under the ground with very little corrosion overall. Whether I still have the thing or not is a mystery that only I will know the truth of lol.

I once went on the thames south embankment near the tate modern, i was just running my detector over the beach and it went off buzzing away, well i dug down and found a few empty shell cases, but i come across a shett of toughened glass that had a shape to it and a crack with what seemed like a hole , when someone on the beach with me turns round and said, i bet thats come from a German aircraft during the blitz over southern England, well thst played on my mind so in the end i took it to the imperial War museum in London, after a few weeks of waiting for them to run a test on this sheet of shaped glass, and when they got back to me, hey presto, its a glass screen from a German messersmitt fighter that had highly likely been an escort for the bombers during the blitz on London

@TheAmazingAdventuresOfMiles 8 ай бұрын

I would imagine so. Many of the dets would have corroded beyond operation now, but not all of them. Depends on the dets chemical composition and how well sealed it remains. The main charge is possibly TNT (not 100% sure) which is actually pretty inert, unless you detonate it.

@bigbasil1908 7 ай бұрын

Yeah I didn't actually thing about that; the risk of stepping on one of those mines lol. But I guess most if not all of them would have a few inches or more of earth built up over them with the many decades of dead leaves and twigs falling onto the ground.
