Bad Ideas In Mine Clearing #523
Bren carrier? Check.
Naval mine on a rope? Check.

Sometimes WW2 naval mines turn up even today (to go to the most relevant bit of fascinating but long page, search for "buoyant").

Don't be silly. That's the polish atomic bomb program. The same way you use a small fish as bait....
