  In Germany, if you dig and hit something metallic, you *stop digging*. Chances are you've found an unexploded WW2 bomb. Proceed very carefully.

  Historical structures are to be protected in europe. They built the supermarket around the glacier because they are not allowed to remove it

  A famous river of red wine rushed through the streets of São Lourenço do Bairro, Portugal, on September 10, 2023, after two large storage tanks burst at the Destilaria Levira distillery. The sudden spill released roughly 2.2 million liters (581,000 gallons) of wine, creating a fast-moving red torrent down the town&apos;s steep roads.

  Imagine if the air stewardess who survived a 33,000ft fall had been over america? The hospital bill would make her wish she hadn&apos;t survived.

  The Roman ruins in the italian supermarket i can explain, the main issue is that ancient Romw obviously was around 3000 years ago and during the centuries wave of people build around it. Nowadays there are lot of situation where you can&apos;t really demolish the building that stand around the ancient ruins for a number of reason, the only solution is to modernize and protect the ruins and keep the building in a way they can coexist. Is more common than we think in big cities in italy where civilations basically build over each others for centuries

  I&apos;m from West Flanders in Belgium. Around here, practically every farmer has a collection of deactivated grenades, artillery shells and other wartime relics they&apos;ve found while ploughing their fields. <br>The bomb disposal service still gets called out multiple times a day in the region - more than 100 years after WWI and over 80 years after WWII. That&apos;s how much unexploded ordnance is still buried here.
