Darwin Award!
How do you say, “That’ll buff right out!” in Russian?
Darwin.
A true “Hold mah beer, Florida Man” moment.
Something tells me this guy is going to have a permanent case of artillery ear.
In Russia, you drive the rocket to the target.
Straighten out the metal, a little hammer taping and touch that baby up with a bondo and she is as good as new
Perhaps we should leave rockets laying about in Chicago
I hate it when that happens.
He could have bartered that rocket for 5 bushels of Beets and 7 bushels of Cabbages.
I’d love to see the insurance filing on this one.
“it is unwise to take items from the battlefield”
A bit of understatement there.
For every action there is a reaction.
former idiot, now enlightened.
Years ago my SIL had a friend who went camping on the National Guard Range near Salt Lake City. They found an M79 round in the ground and decided to put in the camp fire to see what would happen. After a few minutes there was an explosion. The propellant charge had gone off. They came out of hiding and when they got to the fire the grenade itself cooked off. No one was killed but they got shrapnel and had to life flight one guy. What a bunch of morons. Two of them had actually been in the Army.
M79 rounds and drinking don’t mix.
There are also still bombs in the Pacific Northwest that Japan sent over on balloons during WW2. One person got killed by one many years ago. Not all have been found. Old munitions can be very touchy. Don’t f*** with em.
There is a pic for a Law & Order episode....

Thankfully no one was killed in this case, but rest assured, many soon will be. The tens of thousands of man-portable weapons currently being dumped into Ukrainian are heading to black-markets around the world, including here in the US.
I just checked my owner’s manual. Would you believe there isn’t a single word in there about transporting live anti-tank weapons? It’s obviously the car manufacturer’s fault.
I can fix this, my father has an awesome set of tools! Jeff Spicoli
