Definitely wins the Clickbait Title of the Day Award. Come on BBC, you can do better.

Why is that click bait?? The story is exactly what the headline says. A bomb from ww2 that no one knew was there, exploded just after a plane had taken off.

It is obviously written to invoke some sort of panic or dread.

"Hidden" [WWII era] bomb detonates underneath airport runway just after plane takes off.

One invokes fear, the other invokes interest, both are accurate.
