We don't care.
Self-depreciation is a big part of British """""culture""""". We laugh at ourselves all of the time, especially in real life. It's healthy.

I assume its because they were "stolen"

apparently scouring old warzones to find lost and forgotten items is illegal or something

A lot of IEDs are made from unexpended artillery shells. War memorabilia or not they are extremely dangerous.

Top are live artillery IEDs from Iraq, bottom are live artillery "memorabilia" from the UK

You can remove the explosive material you know...

>>51098305
holy shit, thats one hell of a collection. I imagine its worth a pretty penny.

real shame about destroying it all
>>
>>51098810
A professional can, probably not a garage hobbyists; at least you wouldn't want him trying.
I'm sure lots of Brits have demilitarized artillery in their collections, this guy isn't the brightest though

>>51098904
Didn't normal people put them together in factories tho? Still i dont get why they had to blow all that shit up. Just remove the fucking gunpowder.

Many years ago when they weren't rusted half to shit and unstable.

>gunpowder

Shows how much you know about this desu.
>>
>>51099006
There is no safe way to remove each shell, transport it, and demilitarize it. Temember that shells become less stable and much more volatile over time. Charges and primers can contain dynamite which breaks down over time, especially older dynamite that used things like sawdust as the absorbent, and become old nitroglycerin, which can be exploded just by being moved.

It's not worth it for the police, or military, or a war memorabilia conservation society, to risk either lives or expensive equipment, to try and collect, transport, and demilitarize a collection that honestly isn't all that special. I mean it's a very impressive personal collection that took a lot of time and money but there's nothing in that garage that is especially rare or that can't be purchased from most milsurp places or ebay.

And yes, factories worked with very specialized equipment, had trained professionals doing sensitive work, weren't operating in a contemporary residential neighborhood, and were using much more stable newer materials.

>>51096198
Well it's interesting that they did that considering the historical value of some of those items.

It's not as valuable as you think. General issue WWII era stuff is a dime a dozen. Guns, dm munition shells, kits, helmets, medals/ribbons, manuals, casings, uniforms and components, etc, are fairly common and not usually very expensive.
The most expensive thing in OP's picture is probably that Nazi flag under the TV on the left, provided that it is real and from the 3rd Reich.

I would imagine considering they literally made tens of millions of them.
