I’ve heard of similar stories of Fishing Boats towing up old bombs:
A World War Two-era bomb exploded in the German town of Euskirchen near Bonn on Friday, killing a construction worker after his mechanical digger dislodged it and injuring eight other workers.
You can’t really make any regulation jokes as there is simply NO way to prevent this. All I can note is that this is NOT a “Gun Death”.
