Playing with explosive shells is not swift. If the shell was fired and for some reason didn't go off, the fuze could be sitting there with the safety blocks out or the wire broken, just waiting for someone to drop it. Some folks rigged remotely controlled drills to drill out the fuze; IIRC, one guy underestimated how "remote" it needed to be.
