Big whoop.
There’s another off the coast near Savannah.
The weapons are DESIGNED NOT TO DETONATE unless a very specific set of instruments are engaged and the bombs do not and WILL NOT detonate on simple impact.
PERIOD.
Everybody relax.

The United States abandoned a nuclear weapon beneath the ice in northern Greenland following a crash in 1968...All together now...

I saw the (Discovery channel, perhaps Nat’l Geo?) documentary on those guys who pulled that Lightning out of the ice. OMG, ton of work, incredible.
Maybe...I am confusing that with a similar effort (adn similar documentary) to rescue a B-29 from the ice, obviously a considerably larger effort. The poor guys who worked on that for years ultimately got it out, rebuilt it, fired it up, and IIRC a loose toolbox shifted during an early taxi run, ruptured a fuel line, and the whole thing went up in flames. It was utterly heartbreaking.

Ask this guy where it is. He's probably shooting bottle rockets at it.
