It happens to all of us that we find a cheaper alternative to anything. Because of this, we save some money and sometimes our creativity is also used to the fullest. However, such a habit can sometimes prove to be costly. Recently, the story of one such woman came into the headlines, whose Jugaadu hammer was actually an instrument of death.
The woman had been using a hammer for the past 20 years. The hammer was almost worn out due to hammering nails, cracking walnuts and other household uses. When she found out the truth about it, she was completely stunned. According to the website Oddity Central, this incident is from China. The 90-year-old woman living here spent two decades of her life in such ignorance that when she realized her mistake, she was not able to say anything.
What she thought was a hammer, was actually a ‘bomb’!
The woman’s surname is Qin and according to local reports, she lives in Xiangyang in China’s Hubei province. She found an iron object with a wooden handle in her field. She thought it was a makeshift hammer and brought it home. She used to break every hard object with the hammer. Recently, when some people went to demolish her old house, they found this hammer. It did not take them long to understand that it was a hand grenade and for the last 20 years, the woman was putting her life in danger every time she used it.
Grandma used to grind spices with a ‘bomb’!
The elderly woman said that she used it to grind spices, break dry fruits and hammer nails. As soon as the police came to know about the hand grenade, they reached there and sent it for investigation. Investigation revealed that it was indeed a Chinese type 67 hand grenade, with which the grandmother had been grinding spices for 20 years. The police has also clarified that it has been destroyed so that no further damage is caused. Talking about the grandmother, she was lucky that she remained alive even after playing the game of death for so many days.
