Authorities have said the bomb will be blown up by naval divers. The discovery promoted one of the largest evacuations in the UK since the war while a military convoy got ready to carry the Nazi-era explosive from a residential area to the shoreline.

Hopeless journalist.
Terrifying

Fab start to the video with the brave souls having some military giggles and banter in such a risky time, bless their hearts! Proud of you guys! ❤ Shame about the chavvy second part! Oh the joys of simple Plymothians😂
Risking dozens of pounds sterling in possible damages
Goering strikes again!
Why were the Army lads not wearing berets?
All the houses must be evacuated around the dangerous zone

That happens all the time here in Germany
I always thought bombs were round, this behometh is i beleive a torpedo and not a bomb at all.
Then what about sea life must be damaged by this exercise
And why does it have to be at sea? Affecting marine life and possible consequences in the ocean? Why didn't they use the same areas where the military use explosives? Why don't they make a hole in some distant desert where life is not affected? They make decisions without consulting the experts!! 😢
Once the the float goes over 5 mph it'll arm the bomb. If it goes under 5 it'll go….BOOM!
This proves beyond doubt that Putin and Russia are not the enemy – it's ze Germans !
Can we send it back
Kind of funny, that a german WW2 bomb is transported away by a german-developed (MAN) british army truck. Goes to show how much has changed since then…
