Medical staff had to halt the procedure, fearing a possible explosion. The hospital, unfamiliar with such protocols, immediately alerted the authorities, and around 1:40 a.m., police arrived and activated the bomb squad. The team established a security perimeter to neutralize the device so surgery could continue, though no one knew at that stage if the entire operation could blow up at any moment.

My pleasure, pal! Thunder is also a good one. Those are my top two I would say. There are so many now. I think I've tried the vast majority of them though. I had a bit of a trial period. 😅
