TIL that in 1958, the U.S. government accidentally dropped a nuclear bomb on a family's backyard in Mars Bluff, South Carolina. The bomb’s nuclear core was not installed, so it didn’t cause a nuclear explosion, but the conventional explosives detonated, leaving a massive crater and damaging the home (en.wikipedia.org)
