Wow, that picture brings back memories! That particular incident happened at Area 9 near what is now closed Hahn AB, Germany back in the early 90’s. Talk about embarrassment for the munitions driver.
’shopped.
This one was also in our safety training video, and there was no bomb.
Even without the bomb, driving a forklift off the loading dock is still fail.
So just caz it was in your video that means its fake?
how bout the fact that they showed you it so you wouldn’t make the same mistake, ever think of that?
I used to move ‘em around. Unless the bomb is armed, a physical blow CANNOT set them off. However, it is still not a good idea to drop the damn things…
This reminds me of a training manual fail from the british royal navy which basicly read “warhead must be stored in an upside down position to avoid accidental detonation. the label TOP has therefore been placed on the bottom of the warhead”.
thats not a bomb moron. if you were any type of ordnance you’d know it was a fucking mine, used to find subs using a magnetic field sensing large metal objects in the water….
I’ve been waiting for this one! Its finally here! Yay!

Actual it occurred in Kadena AB Japan in about 2001. I drove by shortly after it happened. Sorry Threeqtrirish.
P.S. It was a Navy driver.
i recall when this happened, russia was no more!

I’m surprize the bomb didn’t go off.
that would suck
actually how much crazier of a story would it have been if it did go off XD
I remember this one. From what I heard, someone moved the bomb there afterward as a joke.

Now BLASTING CAPS will ruin your day
Not to mention Squibs, eh MB?
Where were you Ordnance? we used to love putting cigarettes out on the rockets and making the non-ordnance folk run away in fear.
Ah, good times.

That sounds like a paradox!
Would this be the ‘F-Bomb’?
Haha YES I was waiting for this comment. It is a Fail-bomb. haha

WE DIDN’T KNOW SORRY WE DON’T SPEND ALL DAY IN A BASMENT READ BOOKS ABOUT MINES
You sound like a fun guy. Or maybe a forty five year old man-child who lives in his ex-wife’s parent’s basement. Hard to tell.
Oh, that makes me feel MUCH better . . . .
Almost forgot . . . IDIOT!
DX< NUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
god bless our armed forces. they need it.
See! I don’t know what everyone’s been so worried about . . . nukes are perfectly safe – as long as no human being comes into contact with one. Yikes!
