World War Two bomb explodes on airport runway
This is the moment a WWII bomb explodes next to a runway forcing flight cancellations at an airport in Japan.
CCTV captured the blast as a plane prepared for take-off- at Miyazaki Bougainvillea Airport on Wednesday (2 October).
Officials said a bomb disposal team from the Japan Ground Self-Defence Force later investigated the explosion.
Experts found an American bomb had been buried beneath the land surface, probably dating to a wartime air raid.

More likely an intelligence service timed an explosive to go off as the next (or prior) plane was set to depart/return. I wonder who was on the next flight out and the flight prior. Public Officials used the WW2 bomb as a convenient cover story to quickly ease public concerns away.
its like a bomb dropped out of a time rift during the war or somthing, feels unnatural.
