FBI agents in Anchorage unearth 50 pounds of dynamite inside a derelict school bus off Richardson Highway—exactly the answer to 'How is dynamite disposed?' and 'Is old dynamite dangerous?' The cache, at least 20 years old, required a bomb robot and a chemical dousing. Special Agent Rebecca Day quips, 'Not the field trip we planned.'

After chemical soaking, the FBI hauls the busload of vintage explosives for a controlled burn, shutting down the highway for seven hours—an answer to 'How do bomb squads handle antique dynamite?' and 'What happens if you find explosives on your property?' Picture a bomb robot on sentry duty, waiting for a school bell that never rings.

Investigators found the dynamite so aged it required burning rather than detonation, leaving Alaska’s forest with the world’s least educational bus fire drill.
