I really think some people should just be harveted for their organs because when they think, it just ends up causing trouble. :p

But but, surely it was a dud. I mean not that he ever bothered to CHECK.

Shame he didn't blow himself up, then he'd be a funny darwin award. Though one has to question the intelligence of a 12 year old who thought playing with a giant bullet would be fun.

A 40 mm shell...

You know when you hear something so incredibly stupid, that you just go completely blank, trying to make sense of it...

Yah..its like that.

Why artillery shells?

Why dont they just give these kids a bag of angry badgers, and a couple of sharp sticks..

That way..its a game, and a sucking chest wound.

Though if the bomb exploded when he had it, there would be no organs left to harvest. I guess he'll give his 1 yr old newphew a knife for xams?

Don't you even remember being twelve?!? Playing with a giant bullet is loads of fun! Which is why you don't give em to twelve year olds. :p

Apparently I was a bit more sensible at 12. Though I firmly believe kids are getting dumber every generation.

Clearly, shells that people can carry are a danger to society. This (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/0/0b/80_cm_Gustav_shell_compared_to_T-34.jpg/488px-80_cm_Gustav_shell_compared_to_T-34.jpg), on the other hand...
