One of the legacies of the London Blitz is that London is still littered with unexploded Nazi bombs. They’re usually uncovered in the most unlikely places and when one is found, it has to be destroyed by bomb disposal crews.

Recently one was found in a Hackney Park and there’s a video going around of it exploding.

Watch as war-time bomb discovered by resident near Clissold Park in Hackney, north London, is detonated in a shower of debris.

  1. It looks like an adventure, doesn’t it? A kind of computer game. No Nazi invader stepped the land of the UK. Then imagine just for a minute bombs that explode every day. Modern bombs. Not from Nazi. From the USA and the UK. Will you think it’s only a picture?
