Georgia: Amateur Divers Find Long-Lost Nuclear Warhead World News Daily Report

A couple of tourists from Canada made a surprising discovery while scuba diving in Wassaw Sound, a small bay located on the shores of Georgia. Jason Sutter and Christina Murray were admiring the marine life of the area when they stumbled upon a Mark 15 thermonuclear bomb that had been lost by the United States Air Force more than 50 years ago.

So, one lost nuke found 10 to go?

Kinda off topic but, without Google would any of you guys know what I was talking about if I said "The Football" and "Biscuit"?

How the hell was this not on major news outlets, this is a legendary story? The article was published 6 days ago.

What's funny is that were probably lots of local divers that have been looking for this for years and some random Canadian couple finds it when they weren't even looking, supposedly.

I fell for it, lol. Apparently so did ABC and CNN at some point.

The pages have since been removed though.
