the safest conditions to keep old explosives is submerged in cold water, just like the wreck is!!!

it would be far more dangerous to try to clear the site

after all this time the explosives would be highly unstable and likely to explode if disturbed, if that happend inside the wreck and a chain reaction happend and set off all the explosives you could say goodbye to most of the windows and glass in london

or have i got the wrong wreck??
