Talk about nerves of steel! A Police bomb squad was called to remove an 80 year-old bomb from a Florida beach.

Fort Pierce Police received a call from someone walking on the beach who noticed something suspicious. What the caller saw was a vintage WWII detonator drop bomb. It appears that the 80 year-old bomb washed up on the Florida beach.

The St. Lucie County Sheriff's Bomb Squad was called and did what they train for.

Talk about being cool as a cucumber! Check out the video:

The Bomb Squad disposed of the bomb in an undisclosed location and the beach was reopened.
