    I would have voted to hide behind the bucket and throw rocks at it.

    I wonder whose bright idea that was to use the excavator bucket? Probably the same person who also had a spare camera and bucket, and no clue how damaging a land mine can be!

    So... I find my self wondering how long was the excavators arm? How far back was the operator? How did they happen to find that without setting it off in the first place?

    Uh boss, you won't believe it but we hit a land mine with the excavator. We're gonna need a new bucket.

    I know what you did you idiot, it is already posted online. You owe me for a new bucket. BTW, you and your film crew are FIRED!
