And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Looks like a typical grenade....with the standard 5 second fuse mechanism. He was holding the 'spoon' closed till he dropped it....he should have had 5 seconds for it to sink further...he might have gotten 2 seconds. Makes one wonder if the fuse mechanism was faulty.
back in 1982, saw japanese fisherfolk using half pound blocks of comp B in ziploc baggies to stun sharks they would then fin for market. sad to see. sharks were often shredded much bad. crown of thorn starfish could get quite bad on the reefs of northern okinawa. found out why. the shellfisherfolk would bring them up, chop them into chunks and pitch them back into the sea. Little known fact of crown of thorn starfish, they grow a whole body from a separated tentacle. idiots.
Is there a longer version?
ReplyDeleteWake the fishes, it's feeding time.
ReplyDeleteFishing with grenades? Hope the sharks got clean up duty

My all-time favorite ws the guy who tied 6 weather ballons to a lawn chair. Levelled off over 10,000'. Amazingly, he got down safely.
ReplyDeleteanother was a guy trying to get his girlfriend to marry him, descended by BB gunning the balloons.
Deletelooks like they struck a mine.
ReplyDeleteWonder if they both lost a hand.....

ReplyDeleteThe spoon had been released before the video starts.
DeleteUZRG fuses are notorious for unreliable delay. That looked like a Russian grenade
