A PAIR of magnet fishermen who pulled an unexploded grenade out of a canal were left stunned after sparking a major incident.
A bomb squad raced to the Union Canal in Linlithgow, West Lothian, after Bob Imrie and his pal raised the alarm at 3.50pm on Sunday.
The 23-year-old, from Edinburgh, was filming as they tossed the huge magnet into the canal, capturing the moment the grenade was pulled up live on their TikTok channel.
Speaking to the Record, Bob said: “The minute I saw it, I was panicking – my heart was racing. I was absolutely sh**ing myself, to be honest.
