URGENT POSSIBLE EXPLODING CANNON BALLS

[hmmm]

sorry about that, i was in a hurry, when i get home i will post the pictures of the rest of them.
a friend found a exploding cannon ball some years ago, its now in the museum, then another guy found the one in the first picture, he swares its a shot put. now i found out why, its because the old shcool had a box of them and the kids still use them as shot puts. you can see why i put urgent, they where seen tossing them around on the beach yesterday. as kid i rpobobly threw them, 40 years ago, apparently they where in the school from the beginning, 1920's, where they came from know one seems to know.

Are you drunk? Seriously! Why do you WANT these shot put/hammers to be bombs? Is it so you can play the hero for alerting the school to it's impending detonation? They are combo shotput/hammers...as already identified.

I thought I found a crate of cannonballs that were about to explode while metal detecting yesterday.

But it turned out that it was just a pull tab.

MXT AND HEMOCROMOTISIS, YOU DO THE MATH.

Okay, lets get real. I posted the pictures I found on Ebay. For the less than intelligent , they were NOT altered, I have no reason to alter them and if you believe they've been altered you need to think again! Second, I posted the links direct to the Ebay auctions. I have no idea why you need to "Google" anything. It appears to me that you want the shot puts to be dangerous to justify some inner need. For any doubters, go to Ebay and search "shot put 12" or "shot put 4". The 12 lb shot put auction ends in 19 hours, but the 4KG auction is out there for the next 13 days. DO NOT accuse me of altering pictures again!

 

[hmmm]

I NEVER SAID YOU ALTERED IT, BUT IT IS ALTERED. http://www.anacondasports.com/webap...495&langId=-1&sportId=173409&productId=139546
LOOK AT THE SHOT PUT HERE AND COMPARE IT TO THE ONE ON E BAY.

 

[Fast_Dave]

And if I wanted to, I could post links to a dozen other pictures that don't show the plug either. My point being, these pictures show the plug, it's exactly like the pictures you posted and the items pictured are shot puts! Oh, and here's the quote where you said the picture was altered-
"bull --deleted--,

Sure sounds to me like you said I altered the pic!

 

[hmmm]

I DID NOT SAY YOU ALTERED IT, look at the picture and tell me it has not been smuged where the red arrow points to.. i tried to phone the company that made it to see if the modle you posted has a screw cap. they are closed but i will try tommorow.

Note to self: Just walk away
Don't post when you're angry

find me more shot puts with screw caps from the 1930's and i will take you seriously. i have asked elders about the balls, they to threw them as kids.

 

[hmmm]

i should say , last summer the cops came by wanting the cannon ball, i told them i would try get the one i posted in a old thread, and said the other is in a museum.

the guy said its just a shot put and would not give it up, i called the cops yesterday and they are coming down, i started this post in the hopes of finding out if they are real, what we need is a expert on both shot puts and shrapnel cannonballs to help out.
this is the one they wanted.
i spent some time conferming your shot put that is identical to my cannon ball is authentic, i found the right ones [Champion Sports Style #IS12]
but no screw cap . dont get offended but what more can i say.

Thanks. I missed this one. This definitely belongs in "The Best of Hmmmm..."

Frankly... nothing else - please.

Exploding shot-put is not an option I have seen explored yet on this thread.

It would be a very insidious trick indeed for a person to build an exploding shot-put, and then hide it in a crate in the basement of a school to create havoc at some undetermined point in the distant future.

Is the school where you found these located near any known "power centers" or "energy vortices"?

ARE YOU LOCATED ANYWHERE NEAR SEDONA

Actually, this shot put is located near the World's Largest Ball of Twine. Even though Tens of Thousands of dollars have been spent to make the twine safe from terrorist attack, there is still more work to be done, since no one at the office of Homeland Security ever considered the dangers of kids with shotputs.

Well, then the photos must be altered by unscrupulous vendors that want to sell us silly old shot puts instead of the Bombs we've paid good money for.
