Sometimes when you find something cool, you just want to show it off to your mates and damn the consequences.
When Northern Territory crab fisherman Damien Lumsden came across a "pretty exciting" World War II bomb in the wreckage of a plane east of Darwin, he didn't just leave it there. No, because he's a sharing kind of guy, he instead put it in the back of his ute to give everyone in the local town a look, ABC News reported.
"[We] put it in the back of the ute for a couple of days," he told the outlet. "We drove around town ... doing a bit of show and tell."
Oddly enough, locals took notice of the bit of ordnance -- that turned out to be unexploded -- and called the authorities.
On Tuesday, the Australian Army and RAAF bomb squad exploded the bomb, as you can see in this video nicely captured by the ABC.
The bomb is likely a remanent of fighting around the Northern Territory during the war, when Australia came under attack by the Japanese.
For his part, Lumsden would much rather have kept the bomb, thank you very much.
"It would have been good to keep on the mantle piece," he said.
