Doing that barehanded and without protective gears takes some serious guts.

Wouldn’t it be smarter to just set it off with a 20 foot pole with a big rock attached to the end?

“and then you hit it with a hammer” would not be on my short list of guesses for one the steps for deactivating a mine

Is this a tank mine or something? That has a much higher power but is harder to set off?

Looks like a pmn-2, main charge is actually mostly rdx, with some tnt. The Soviets made a few batches with more tnt, due to the expense of rdx.
Detonator is an md-9, which uses tetryl to set off the rdx. These specifically are difficult to clean up, as theyre not easily set off by standard landmine mitigation methods.
Pmn-3s arent common in Cambodia, but are very very dangerous, as they look similar, but include an anti handling/demining device.
Anyways kids, dont play with explosives. So much can go wrong at any moment. Respect the dangerous toys. (And dont plant landmines, its bad for the environment)

Soviet PMN-2 antipersonnel mine. Uses an RDX/TNT based explosive that’s quite similar to Comp B, and it uses a fuckload of it, way more than is typical of other antipersonnel mines. For example, an M14 mine uses about 1 oz of explosive, which is enough to maim the leg that steps on it but is rarely fatal. These have up to 9 oz, which will blow the whole damn leg off and more likely than not kill the poor bastard that leg used to be attached to.
So sad. Dude said it had been there for 50 years and was in perfect working order. Mines definitely should be a no no weapon like chlorine gas

Hey, FIFA.
How about a 🏅 for this guy?

I stepped on a land mine in Afghanistan when I was 19. It was an Italian-made anti personnel mine that was placed by the Soviets at least 25 years before I got there.
It was a miserably hot day and we had been walking this dried riverbed in dead silence for hours. I was leading the patrol, but my mine detector didn’t catch it, I just heard a very different noise under my feet that sounded like hard plastic. I looked down to see a VS-50 mine just behind me. I assume the only reason it didn’t go off was that there was a decent crack in the body of the mine.
The EOD tech told me thank the deity of my choosing and to buy a lottery ticket. I’ve never been the same since.

You’ll never be as kool as deactivating land mines in buisness casual.

I guess learning how to casually shuck a landmine like it’s an oyster is just something one needs to learn when you’ve got balls that big because otherwise you’d be tripping them with your sack.
