I live about ten miles south of Limburg. Sometime on Sunday evening.....a number of folks on one end of Limburg heard this explosion-like sound and felt the ground shake. It wasn't till daylight came around.....that folks came to realize some crater now existed in a local farmer's field.
Cause? WW II bomb. The size is figured to be around 20 feet deep, and other than a disruption in soil and the crater.....no one was injured, and nothing damaged.
Just one that fell in the war, and never went off until now? Yes.
Most of the time, it's via digging, and something is discovered. Occasionally, it'll be this type of situation where it simply detoniates.
