WWII bomb being chucked to the side at end, had me cracking up!!

[@siliconvalleyengineer5875]

50-100 prisoners should volunteer and that canal would get cleaned up properly

[@lisaquigley-moon9583]

I agree. They might develop more respect for their city

[@HM2SGT]

@@LDNpredatorfishing slavery is illegal last I checked

[@richardmessenger9474]

People who are sentenced to community service could very well be tasked with cleaning up this...👍👍

[@mattyallen3396]

Fat chance

[@HM2SGT]

Makes you wonder what interesting things are lost out of sight where they've sunk in the mud

[@o.k.9142]

It can literally take eternity to clean that mess up... Such a muddy snapshot of contemporary history

[@mattyallen3396]

Excavator and trucks would be the way to go

[@debbygarbato1156]

If you're not dredging it, how do you get rid of the muck and silt that flows in and accumulates and will eventually make the canal not passable?

My Arabic teacher used to say religious texts that are too damaged would normally be thrown into a river or the sea.

[@SteelGnat]

Remember i was helping clear a canal in Germany we accidently found a few un exploded bombs from Bomber planes that did not detonate since finding unexploded bombs was not new everyone just went and left and put flag rods around the area to makesure noone would accidently walk near it

[@lisaquigley-moon9583]

Thanks for the explanation on dredging. I was watching several of these & wondered why. I saw one in Manchester
On TH-cam (I’m in central US Oklahoma) & that gentleman did say they were dredging that locke

[@prawnstar9213]

Thousands of volunteers would come if they called to come clean it

[@lorrainereeves4466]

He said to dredge a canal would be environmentally invasive. So under what circumstances does the canal trust dredge, because this canal looks ripe and ready, regardless. Another way to bypass maintenance costs. Local authorities use the same excuse to avoid tree pruning, ie birds nests.

[@janehigh5279]

Wow, time-capsule indeed

[@lorrainereeves4466]

Can’t quite agree with the river trust man. Remove rubbish yes, but the silt is also a problem. Get a mechanical grabber in there. It will have to be done at some time.

[@Re5ist_ance]

As someone who's managed multiple projects .. this whole "manual" item by item cleanup would drive me nuts! It's a very inefficient way to clean up the canal. You need some machinery to start scoping stuff in mass and getting them into waiting dump trucks. But maybe I'm missing the point. I wonder if a year later they got it clean.

[@fotoautomatmusic]

they said in the video that its the best way of preserving the ecosystem of the canal area, dredging it could cause essential habitat loss and environmental destruction. These are heritage canals, important historical landmarks as well.

[@sarahfields288]

Do you get to keep what you find? Looks like fun

[@harry110952]

Hi there do they ever get some of the mud sludge etc out of there ??

[@Hunter-jm5ul]

7:17 so sad

[@olliebodman9771]

Some of those bottles could be worth a bit
And what could be on some of those discs 😮

[@simon-oy6um]

Wot no old lambrettas 😊

[@robertwillis4061]

10 - 1 they find a gun. And plenty of knifes or even a WW2 unexploded bomb.

[@user-ez6kb1ty3i]

Would it no make more sense to save the fish and the ducks transport them then bring in digggers and clean the thing

[@N00b344]

All of a sudden it's a German bomb. 😂

Any dead bodies?

Looks absolutely disgusting and not worth saving. Backfill the whole thing.
