In 1943, a US bomber over Germany was hit by explosive ordnance directly in the fuel tanks 11 times, but none exploded. After the shells were cut open, all were found to have no explosives in them, and one contained a note in Czech saying "This is all we can do for you now".

Doggerland, 9,000 years ago, connected Britain to continental Europe through a mix of marshes, swamps, wooded valleys, and hills. It was likely inhabited by humans during the Mesolithic period and served as a hunting ground.
However, ice melted, sea levels rose, and Doggerland became submerged, cutting off the British peninsula from Europe around 7,000 BC. Today, Doggerland is a productive fishing bank, with fishermen dredging up hand-made bone artifacts, textile fragments, paddles, canoes, fish traps, a 13,000-year-old human remains, and a woolly mammoth skull
