The boffins got their powder mix wrong. It didn't go off !(I know, I know ;-) )
That's because it's two and a half tons of bunker busting, deep penetrating joy. See http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/munitions/blu-122.htmI believe the above picture comes from a postcard George W. sent to Imadinnerjacket....
