Watch the clip and see if you can answer the questions.

Where is it?
What happens to some of the bombs?

    -The special about Garvie Island is that It is the unique place in which you can throw bombs in all Europe.
    -It is in the north west in Firth of Forth.
    -Some of the bombs faall on the sea and some of them fell to explote.
    -The last one I didn´t know because they have a really good pronunciation that I don´t understand well.
    But I think that the answer is "Because under water the bombs don´t explote."
