+Stoka Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I've just discovered this on YouTube and have to say it's the worst container I have ever seen. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMu3mHYE2gI Quote Link to comment
knowschad Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Plastic hand grenades are generally not explosive. But I get your drift. Quote Link to comment
AZcachemeister Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Not really the worst container I have seen, but pretty low on the food-chain... Quote Link to comment
+cx1 Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Meh, its not a nano and the log is dry. I'm thinking there is a guideline issue with caches that look like explosives though. I could be mistaken however. If I found a cache like that I would sign the log and keep on trucking. Quote Link to comment
+Frank Broughton Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Yes, those plastic mold marks on the bottom are really scarey! Quote Link to comment
diggingest_dogg616 Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 If I could tell it was obviously plastic then whatever. It kind of brings me back to when I was little and there was this store where my grandparents lived that had a display of fake grenades. It had some little sign and you could pull the pin out of one and if it didn't explode then you lived and if the store blew up then well, yeah. I can't really remember the point of it, but the grenades always scared me because to my dumb little mind they looked pretty real. Hopefully I'm smarter now.... Quote Link to comment

+BlueDeuce Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 There have been a couple times people want to know if a fake hand-grenade would make a good travel bug. Those were pretty realistic and no they would not be acceptable. Even to the point of getting it locked down. That cache, while would probably fall under bad idea/think again is more likely a poor container for not being water tight. Hey but it's cool. No, no it's not. It's a lame piece of trash that looks cool. Quote Link to comment
Mr.Yuck Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Naw, far from worst ever. An obvious toy, and although I'm no munitions expert, the U.S. miliary hasn't made "pineapple" grenades since WWII. I'd be much more worried about an endless parade of people rooting around bushes in a residential neighborhood, acting like nutjobs. Quote Link to comment
+briansnat Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Not even close. Your local reviewer I'm sure can tell you stories about cache s/he rejected that were far worse. The only reason this cache got through is because the reviewer probably wasn't aware of the specifics of the hide. Quote Link to comment
Mr.Yuck Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) OK, I looked at this guys Youtube channel. For the life of me, I can't understand the desire to post video's of other people's geocaches to Youtube, either this guy, or the famous Sven incident in the UK. By the way, here's another one of his vids that will really rile people up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUymHmRwrkY&context=C3f91ea1ADOEgsToPDskKaKV9jaz6r_OSuwBM6aQxJ EDIT: I gave up on embedding, but the link should work.

+sholomar Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 if it keeps the log dry it's a step about a lot of micro sized containers. Doesn't look much fun trying to get the contents out of that small opening however. Quote Link to comment

+Doctroid Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 OMG!!! That guy touched that thing like... I dunno... ten times? and he is still alive? Why wouldn't he be? Think about it. If it were lethal to touch, fiddle with, lean on, or even stand on that equipment, would it be out in the open with no chain link fence, strong lock, and big warning signs? In litigative 21st century America? Now, breaking off the locks, opening the doors, unscrewing the panels, and sticking your hand inside... sure, that's a bad idea. But you're not going to get hurt just by walking up and putting your paws on it. Quote Link to comment

+Trracer Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) The worst cache I've seen (Thank God only on youtube) a little plastic box with real dog [poop] on top and inside the box. A little joke from the owner, not my taste and thankfully very quick archivied. Edited January 13, 2012 by Keystone Potty language removed by moderator. Quote Link to comment
+Planet Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Blah. I never watch geocaching online. I prefer to do my caching in real life. The electric boxes are probably illegal, that's the kind of cache I don't even slow the car down for, and I didn't bother to look at the first video, because I can already tell it's a lousy container.

+dagibbz Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I'll watch the videos online to see the creativity and the places I doubt I'd get to. If anything out of boredom. As for that being the worst. Nah it looks like a toy. Quote Link to comment

+slukster Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 While I agree that it might look fake and nobody should mistaken it for the real thing, bomb squads across america are blowing up containers that have no resemblance to an explosive so I agree that it is a terrible container in an urban setting. Out in the middle of nowhere in the woods? Fun container. Quote Link to comment

+ki4byz Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 You have to think where some peoples thoughts are if they accidentally find a cache that looks like a hand grenade. Big Brother wants people scared… Think about “Zero Tolerance” in schools a 6 year old can be suspended from school for bringing a little green plastic army man holding a gun to play with. Those are in most caches around my area. Quote Link to comment

Those were pretty realistic and no they would not be acceptable. Nevertheless, I came across one recently. It was in a cache in a park in a large town here in the UK, and I found it a few weeks after the infamous Wetherby incident (where Army Bomb Squad destroyed a geocache believing it to be a bomb.) Imagine how this must have looked from a distance: "I wonder what that chap is doing over there?" "Oh look....he's putting a hand-grenade in a plastic box and hiding it in the bushes". Sometimes I think we are our own worst enemies. lefthanded99 Edited January 24, 2012 by lefthanded99 Quote Link to comment

It was a empty cardboard box of rifle rounds that was taped to a telephone pole with eletrical tape. Quote Link to comment
