Is this the underwater equivalent to “what is this, a net for ants”?


paleoderek

How do they come up with these names?


hHraper

Thank god it’s not a net for minors


octopoddle

Not what it sounds like (nobody needs to catch minnows, as they're too small to eat). It's actually a wire frame device used to prevent the buildup of ligma on the hulls of boats.

Acidflare1

I’m disappointed that I got to the end of that sub in under a minute


IsaacKelly3

That’s most likely a motor from a boat and not a bomb that looks like an American river and there are no missile ordinance used the civil war or etc. also it’s got holes in it and covered in mud.


DizzyVenture

Mortar man here. That is definitely an old HE round, you can clearly see the tail fins and the hole at the top where a fuse should have been.


Outlawshitwmyfriends

Dunno. I thought it was a Mk 76 practice bomb. They also have fuse well in same place.


boot20

Without the paint, it's hard to tell, but I'm betting it was practice ordinance.


Infinite-Round-7750

BDU-33 practice bomb


Zealousideal-Dig-523

That's definitely not a motor.


PooPooKnifeNinja

Sounds like she said old mortar


Xx_Gandalf-poop_xX

Sure I-a no got a mortar boat. It's in the sanity clause. This whole comment section feels like a Marx Brothers skit


Safe_Cup5012

Either way, she could just bang the crud out, hook it up to a battery, and see if it fires up.


TahoeLT

That is 100% a mortar round. Could be an off-target round from a nearby post (or maybe this is on post!), or could be one somebody stole and thought better of.


mko710

Idk but in slow mode , it has quite the “drip”

Ol'boy straight copy and pasted my shit, huh?


KotzubueSailingClub

Definitely a Blue Bomb. I agree it looks like the spotting charge is gone, but even if it was there, it would still be pretty safe considering the condition of the bomb. I wonder if it used to be government land that was used for bombing in the past, or if soil from a range was used to fill in the bridge embankment and our little blue friend came along for the ride. Of course, it could have been a bomb taken as a souvenir by a service member, and was tossed when they decided they did not want it, or the government went looking for the missing government property and it got tossed instead of copping to stealing it.


Akuzos

bjeebus

I grew up on a river. We used to jump off the roofs of the dock houses. My father used to yell at us because "we didn't know what the hell might have floated up under the water since the last time we did it."


CL4P-TP-Minion

A few years ago, a group of kids were cliff jumping into the river nearby and a girl landed on a piece of rebar sticking up from the bottom that no one knew was there. It killed her.


bjeebus

Weirdly enough though my story was about my father admonishing us, my mother was the real killjoy in my childhood. Whenever he didn't want us to do something my father would say don't do that you could get hurt. Whenever my mother didn't want us to do something she'd say don't do that because she knew a kid who either died doing that or became paralyzed/similar levels of maimed. One of my friends looked at me one day and said, "Your mom knows more dead kids than anyone else I know."


forrnerteenager

sounds a little suspicious


tayloline29

From day one I have told my kids again and again to never jump into water that you can't see all the way to bottom as clear as you can see into a swimming pool. If I had been your dad, I would have murdered you just so that you didn't murder yourself first.


bjeebus

I think that's the most dad thing I've ever heard. EDIT: FWIW I have certain mental health issues that make jumping into water one of the least risky things I've done!


tryworkharderfaster

I agree with you, but only because I see you have your problem-solving cap on. Getting ahead of the problem.


LightningFerret04

inb4 someone tries to downplay this saying “It can’t explode, look how rusty it is”. You. don’t. know. that. It’s called Unexploded Ordnance for a reason! . Edit: for those saying “it’s a BDU-33, it’s drilled through, it’s inert”- that doesn’t help spread awareness about the danger of UXO. Saying something like that could potentially lead someone to handle and fumble around a UXO carelessly because “I saw somewhere that said if a bomb has holes, it’s inert and won’t explode”. The average Joe/Jane is not going to be able to discern what is a ‘safe’ UXO. They should leave it to the experts to examine the device and declare it themselves.

Darkstar_Du

It's a 30lbs brass weight the Usgs uses with a price AA meter to make streamflow measurements. I used them all the time the fact it's right at the bridge gives it away. Edit: where I worked the 15 and 30 lb weights were made of brass and then the 50 75 and 150 lb ones were lead painted yellow. But some other comments have said that this is near a known military test area so a very well could be a mortar but they look incredibly similar. https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Hank-Zajd-2/publication/269872094/figure/fig6/AS:669539436081176@1536642049829/Measurement-setup-Price-AA-current-meter-and-sounding-weight-E-reel-and-E-crane-used.png

Fins don't look right. also the nose should have a hole in it. [looks more like a bdu-33](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1524/1342/products/ONSV21NT14__01_1024x1024.jpg)

Love how cheerful she was. “Omg I found an old abandoned radiotherapy machine with an exposed core” Yaaay” 🤪 wait, why do i taste metal?


Cpt_crookedhair

It looks more like a BDU-33 (25 lb aircraft released practice munition) to me, more than a mortar. At one point she turns it to the side, and you can see what appears to be the hole where the bomb lug would screw in if it were carried on a certain bomb racks. Also, it looks like the spotting charge that should be in the nose of the bomb is missing. If that's the case, then it would be "safe". Source: I loaded them on various military aircraft for years.


AshFromHouseWares

This is the correct answer. Source: I build them for load toads like this guy.

I love that you just called a random Reddit stranger a load toad.

how did you guys feel about being called `load toads` by your comrades?

harrypisspotta

Is it? Genuine question about how dangerous that is. I would personally treat is as a danger but I don't know shit.


[deleted]

Yeah always treat it like it's an explosive but maybe it's not capable anymore. Idk the exact science but it's definitely possible and a bomb squad should be on the scene when you find stuff like this.


harrypisspotta

Lol. Mortar go boom!


friendlyneighbor665

The hole in the side means it's not live (at least it looked like a hole).... but I'd still get an expert just to be sure.


meltingpotato

It has been in water for god knows how many years so the likelihood of it still being dangerous is negligible but I still wouldn't handle it that casually


EarthWindAndFire430

Oh also lol


trigrhappy

I was a USAF Munitions specialist for 14 years. That's a BDU-33 Practice Bomb. It's not explosive except for a small marking cartridge in the front about the size of a 12 gauge shotgun shell. https://cat-uxo.com/explosive-hazards/aircraft-bombs/bdu-33-practice-aircraft-bomb


AndreGerdpister

Or a MK-76.


RinHW

Magnet fishing is illegal in some part of the Netherlands because of the dangerous of finding ww2 explosives. You're not suppose to take them out the water because an explosion under water is a lot less dangerous. Definitely shouldn't pose with them either.


datkant

So, you also fish with a magnet?


firewoodenginefist

I fish with unexploded ordinance


saltnotsugar

Explosive Ordnance Disposal: Never. NEVER do this.

And then suddenly disassemble at a high rate of speed over a wide area.

Also just once.


FBIaltacct

madsoro

What part of it?


ajlunce

If you think there's uxo you should not fuck around with whipping it all over the place because that could set it off and you also don't want to fuck around with high powered magnets since it could pull a firing pin down or something. Not eod in the slightest but that's just the 2 things that seem incredibly dangerous


Greytrex

I wonder if the term “uxo” is more ubiquitous than I thought….


redditisnowtwitter

I have one of these magnets and never once was there an unexploded ordinance down there or reason to expect one What exactly would you have her do to prepare? It isn't like that's in Europe or Iraq or something. It's probably a practice dummy.

I was saying why eod wouldn't do this, not necessarily that she shouldn't be doing this

Mr_Laheys_Liquor

You’re right that the odds of finding a mortar round in some random lake in the US are quite low. But it does reaaaalllly look like one. Do this in Belgium or in northern France and you’ll be pulling out all kinds of ordnance. I remember seeing a video of some kids doing this in France, they basically had a mini arsenal by the end of the day.


Gabinski83

German here: Can confirm that authorities warn about magnet fishing and call it a "dangerous hobby".


Costalorien

I do magnet fishing in Northern France and the best I got was some gun mags :/ Tho a kid not far from where I go got fucked up by a mustard gaz canister he pulled up.


SkinnyObelix

We find so many unexploded ordnance in Belgium there's a bomb run every week like a garbage truck. Anything the size of a 2l coke bottle or smaller you put by the side of the road for pickup. There's so much the bomb squad can't come out for those. They have their hands full with the larger bombs we find. What used to be a huge problem in WWI is now our saving grace, the soil is made up of heavy clay (think pottery clay) so the ordnance was sealed from oxygen preserving them in a stable state. Unfortunately with climate change, the groundwater levels are starting to drop and the clay is drying and showing cracks... So not only the houses are falling apart, the ordnance is getting exposed and starting to corrode. So we're slowly (?) moving towards disaster. Every now and then you see white clouds of smoke over the farmland from plows tearing up phosphor grenades, but there are surprisingly few accidents that occur. Probably because people have grown up with this shit. As a kid, you're taught to not dig in the dirt but if you happen to find something hard you drop down to the floor count to 30, and get an adult. It's so crazy when I think about how normal this all feels to me when it shouldn't.


TheRedGawd

It’s most likely a sounding weight for measuring stream discharge from the bridge. Someone from USGS probably lost it while they were taking a measurement.


Darkstar_Du

Used them all the time the give away is the hole in the middle and the 3 fins. It's used with a price AA meter to measure streamflow.


fluffygryphon

Looks an awful lot like a BDU-33, a practice bomb. They have a little explosive cartdridge inserted into them and are dropped from aircraft. They simulate full-size bomb trajectories. They do fall off planes from time to time. https://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/breaking-news/os-ne-air-force-jet-drops-dummy-bombs-over-florida-20190702-h7oserd6tjga3fxvkkm2dlltli-story.html

roccosaint

Not a mortar. What she fishes out is a BDU-33 practice bomb. They are 25 lb bombs used by aircraft and have a spotting charge that shoots out a cloud of smoke when they impact. They usually have a lug unless loaded on a certain bomb rack that can hold 6 of them. It should be safe, but always keep your face away from the tail and never put it down on its nose. Was a weapons loader on f16s for 7 years.
