No injuries? That explosion looks significant.

By “accounted for”, is it meant they were found in the countryside?

Cut the bluish-green wire.
But whatever you do, don’t cut the greenish-blue wire.

“A World War II bomb exploded in the English town of Great Yarmouth on Friday as workers attempted to diffuse it, according to police.”

Sounds like the exercise was successful.

“…workers attempted to diffuse it”

That’s why it blew! They send in the Brownian Motion Physicists. If only they had sent in the Unexploded Ordnance Specialists, this wouldn’t have happened.

“Defuse“, not “diffuse”.

“Army specialists had been cutting the bomb using a technique that creates a slow burn of the explosives”

Back to the drawing board.

Diffuse? Maybe that was their problem.

Reminds me of an old movie Ten Seconds to Hell (1959) about defusing bombs.

Well we don’t have to ask “what could go wrong “ with THAT one…

I didn’t find the reason why Great Yarmouth would be bombed in the first place but, judging from the old pictures there was significant bombing there.

I went there once on a warm day to go swimming with my wife and baby daughter. I touched my toe into the North Sea and gaaaaaaaawd it was cold! I don’t think I would’ve enjoyed a single minute of it, so we just sunbathed, maybe got a cup of tea and some chips.

What’s with the blue smoke? Sure this wasn’t just some over-the-top “gender reveal” stunt?

Diffuse? Defuse? Never mind, they're rolling.
