Interesting story on a munitions ship that sank off the English coast during WW2.

Of course, there surely isn't a thing to worry about. But then...

SS Mont Blanc

SS GrandCamp (The Texas city disaster)

And then there is a wiki list (How reliable is it?) of largest artificial non-nuclear explosion to calm nerves and put people at ease: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larges...ear_explosions

I sincerely hope this doesn't and never will happen to anyone living within close proximity to the SS Richard Montgomery!

I for one would not tap on the munitions with a hammer when scuba diving.
