A diver was looking for sea cucumbers. He may have found a long-lost nuclear bomb instead.

“I thought those things were deadly poisonous?”
That’s what the sea cucumbers tell you, but they have a bias.

Sea Cucumbers are the only animal without a brain.
They are found in Berkley, Boston, Oakland, Seattle, San Francisco.....

Yes, I was trying to go back through my B-36 books to look up the potential accident information, but my Kindle ereader is not at work.

He should have banged on the bomb to make sure it was inert.

The man diving off the coast of British Columbia, Canada, may have stumbled upon a nuclear weapon that the United States lost decades ago.
Now, the Royal Canadian Navy is scoping out the strange object to see if it is indeed a Mark IV bomb that was jettisoned by an American pilot in 1950 just before his plane crashed.
The man, Sean Smyrichinsky, was using an underwater scooter to hunt for sea cucumbers near Pitt Island, when he came upon a weird bagel-shaped object. After straying from his boat, he came upon a bizarre object that looked a bit like a half-cut bagel the size of a king-sized bed, he told CBC.
The US and Canada kept the knowledge quiet to try to make sure our opponents didn’t go fishing. Countries like Russia had just gotten the bomb and were still looking for knowledge to expand their project technology.

I wonder if the sea cucumber was abnormally large due to the radiation? Why do I ask? I remember the constant thread about the Japanese sea monster movies in the 60’s was “nuke ‘til they grow.”

Sea Cucumbers are safe to eat, if fresh. They don't taste like cucumbers. Not really a fan.
Mark 4 Nuclear bombs are deadly poisonous. Their uranium and plutonium composite cores can poison you from heavy metal poisoning. But you will probably die or radiation poisoning first. But why would you eat it?

I don’t know anything about sea cucumbers. I doubt that what they found was a nuclear bomb.
