"A family picnicking on a beach there in 1991 came across an old bomb. Thinking it was a dud, they used it to prop up a grill to cook fish. It detonated in the heat, killing a boy and injuring other family members."

Well that just their own damn stupidity.

My local prom was evacuated a few months ago after some anti submarine mines off the coast broke free from their rusty chains and floated to the surface. It was quite cool watching the Royal navy salvage them. then detonate them at a safe distance.
