Interview with a Bomb Disposal Expert
A.N. Other (name redacted to protected his identity) tells listeners his life as a 26 year old bomb disposal officer in Iraq and Afghanistan.
We hear about training methods and the types of bombs he has had to defuse ranging from from old Civil War Cannon Balls to Cluster Bombs under war conditions
We hear about defusing nuclear devices, to the hazards of dealing with dirty bombs containing radioactive or biological material.
A.N. Other tells listeners, exactly what it feels like to dress up in The Bomb Suit to put himself and his men in harms way.
This is a rare insight into what it is like to repeatedly stand in the doorway between life and death
