Very cool to see a pretty long gif of 1966 Batman relevant and in use in this story I read today about an elementary school boy who brought in a vintage, potentially live ordinance to show and tell in England.

The continued pop-cult relevance of the show/movie never ceases to amazes, especially "in the wild" like this.

It's funny, growing up in the UK this kind of story was semi frequent. It seemed there was always someone finding WW2 ordinances whenever someone would break ground on a construction or demolition project. Heck, they even found mustard gas in some brick sheds that were being dismantled a few miles from my childhood home.
