Holy crap. The video below shows an Iranian soccer player bending down to pick up and clear an object thrown on the field by a spectator. The player nonchalantly tosses the object out of play and justs seconds later it explodes in a fire heap of shrapnel. That object? A GRENADE. The game was reportedly called off and police have started investigating the case, but that player is extremely lucky he didn’t pick it up a second later…he would have completely lost his hand. PS- Maybe Hollywood movies and Call Of Duty have given me the wrong idea, but (luckily) that appeared to be a pretty weak grenade in terms of blast radius. [Sportsgrid]
