Item found in bin outside pub
Bomb disposal team
No caption needed....
So this morning the town centre was evacuated and the bomb squad was called. Turns out some Muppet put his costume in the bin last night

Unfortunately it's better safe than sorry so every bomb threat is taken seriously.

In all seriousness, it's good practise to be alert and react instead of being meh

Funny joke. Do that shit in the US and you'll spent the next 30 years in Federal prison.

I love the British insult "Muppet." And yes, this twatwaffle is a total Muppet.

I feel like this provably was just a drunk guy stumbling home and tossed his costume in a bin rather than a deliberate bomb scare
Kkenn
That bomb disposal vehicle look like shit.

1. C4 is black (it's not C4 if it doesn't have lamp black in) 2. Terrorists probably aren't using RDX. Hard to make, easy to detect.

I sure there's prints and such on that

There's a photo of the guy right there posted on social media, not sure what prints would add to finding the guy...

Guess his prank bombed.

“Some muppet” Didn’t even need to read the article to know you’re in the UK
kittehmeowhead
I was forced to stay indoors at work because someone found a grenade outside. Turns out it was a lighter. The bomb squad sill detonated
kittehmeowhead
It though, and I’m in a downtown area. The reverb was enough to make me yell on the phone (I had no idea they were doing the detonation).
kittehmeowhead
They also found a white substance in a box a few blocks away. It was a messed up day to say the least!
Hypoxicith
Those two look like they have soft bodys. Prison will treat them well me thinks.

why would he leave his phone attached to the costume?
GoliathSkittles
Probably an old phone that he didn't need or it didn't work just to add to the costume.
AnathemaNoreh
Crappy phomes for pay as you go plans are fairly cheap in England

I have no doubt alcohol was part of the decision making process, I’m just not sure how much.
ToasterDent
Wild guess not knowing story: was Halloween party costume, thrown in trash along way home.
pareidoliaperson
I can only agree only if you mean the "making process" a.k.a drinking pregnant mom of these two hippo-anusses.
pareidoliaperson
Everyone drinks alcohol, imagine alcohol did this to everyone. That'd be absurd.
Morrigi
Too much, obviously.
Captainplanetmotherfucker
And people wonder as to why I don't drink.
tagmomg
I think it's safe to say that the amount of booze required to make this seem like a good idea is in itself a stupid amount to drink at once.

Wa there an event or some reason to go out in costume last night?
AnathemaNoreh
In England pubs have fancy dress nights for no reason at all, or groups do it just themselves for a pub crawl

Not that I'm aware of! It's just a strange place full of strange people

slightly better than places where they dont clean their dog poop. or even if they do, you still ahve to dodge the left over streaks
SDOMO
Almost anywhere is better than Paris.
dontyoudarelookatme
Ok why all the hate on them could have been a simple thingbhe did whole drunk maybe the costume got anoying so he threw it in the trash 1/2
dontyoudarelookatme
Ive done similar things with chuncks of home made crap costumes walking home drunk from a party he might not have thought twice about it
Elnauriel
How about we stop using "I was drunk" as an excuse for bad decisions.
Tminus1622d
It's a bit in poor taste, the costume, but yeah, after a few beers, I can see him throw it out without thinking about it. No harm intended.
Tminus1622d
It's stupid and all that, but who hasnt made dumb decisions while sober, or drunk?
dontyoudarelookatme
And ti top it off thwres always one if those guys at a costum party as hitler or some shit
Sassmachine
Maybe I'm just too American to get it, but isn't dressing up as a terrorist with a bomb vest just a bad idea to begin with?
GoonSquadGo
Happens here more often than you'd think actually
Sassmachine
Gotcha. For some reason I thought it would be a bigger deal over there, seeing as you guys seem to actually deal with more terror attacks.
Tminus1622d
There is barely such a thing as terrorist attacks. It's just scaremongering. It's a very minor risk in most countries. You're better off
RivetCityImOnABoat
Guessing you don't live in a part of the world where bombs in trash cans have maimed hundreds as a routine practice of extremist groups...

Tminus1622d
Name one place that has that. Hundreds? From trash can bombs? Routinely? I challenge you to name a place, with a credible source.

The UK, over the decades of The Troubles with the IRA. And sorry: bombs were left in trash bins, telephone booths, and other public places.
Tminus1622d
Dont you expand it to telephone booths and other stuff. We're talking about trash bins. That article links to one incident with a trashcan

Wtf what's wrong with these assholes downvoting you for simply asking a question?

I know right, it's not like my country have The Sun so I'm genuinely asking

I gave you some up votes. Gotcha buddy
aftoru
Mah dudez!
thisnameistaken
The downvoters probably are assuming that they where defending the s*n not asking what it was

This explains everything
rayseanhaydyn
it's a pretty trashy newspaper, the stories aren't exactly considered good journalism.

I see, the sun doesn't published in my country

as someone from the Netherlands, why?

Dude, everything that is considered yellow press in britain is as trustworthy as some drunken hobo lying for a Dollar. Sun, daily Mail...
KtH91
What is yellow press?
CISMaleScumLord
Biased and trashy writing from barely literate monkeys. So far that doesn't seem particularly different to any other tabloid. So you should
CISMaleScumLord
research how they reported Hillsborough which set a new, and I think yet to be beaten, low in journalism.
valen00
This looks way more credible than almost any "bomb" in the media or bomb scare, like remember those LED signs people freaked over?
wolfpreist
you mean the mooninite invasion?

Because leds on a thin board with some batteries makes a bomb. The more visible the bomb, the more explosive force.

I was so crushed that I didn't find one since one was in my neighborhood in an area that I hung out in.

Not sure if you've actually seen a picture of that kid's clock but it does look a lot like a bomb, he was clearly looking for attention

How is your bottom? Did you have to spend the flight standing or did they use enough lube?

"That might be a bomb. Let me go stick my face in it and make sure it definitely contains explosives." Get your head out of your ass.
valen00
https://www.asi-mag.com/modern-ied-design-trends/ note the common part, they all have something that can go boom in them
AStegosaurus
Those pictures look similar enough to the clock that a layperson who doesn't want to dig around in a suspected bomb could be worried.
valen00
see the thing is (and this is the point I was really making) there's nothing there that can explode, wires does not a bomb make, you need/
valen00
stuff that can actually go boom. That takes up volume, chuck a water bottle in there full of "mystery" and sure you can have concern
valen00
here, we have a trigger (the phone) wires to where you put detonators, and stuff to detonate, all the things you need for a bomb.

sprinckletitties
But he was told repeatedly to put it away and he admitted that he new exactly what he was doing.
xaviex
Problem was, he didn't make it, that's a standard model clock with the shell taken off and the insides put into a briefcase 1/2
xaviex
If it we're an Arduino or a raspi something it would make sense, but when it's literally just a disassembled clock put into a briefcase 2/3
