Reminds me of a great old piece of newsfilm from California or Washington State -- forget which.
A whale washed up on shore, and some highway department genious who didn't want to have to figure out how to move it decided that the easiest thing would be to blow it up with dynamite and move the smaller pieces.
They got a bit too much explosive and showered people, cars, etc. for hundreds of yards with giant hunks of whale.
It's really funny to see in retrospect.
Gives a whole new meaning to the old whalers cry, "Thar She Blows!"
