There's been a lot of talk about nuclear weapons in the context of Donald Trump's rise to power. We know all about launching them—after all, the U.S. kind of cornered the market on that one—but what about how they're stored? How about where they're stored?

But here's the really intriguing part: you might live close to nuclear weapons we know about, but you might also live close to weapons we've lost through the years. Yes, the United States has lost weapons of mass destruction, and we still can't find 11 of them. The military lost two in North Carolina, and found one hanging in a tree. They never found the other one, though, so they just bought the land around it to stop anyone digging in the wrong place. They also lost one off the coast of Savannah, Georgia. They have no idea where that one is, but if it were to detonate it could wipe out the city's nearly 150,000 residents.

Now consider that Russia has lost at least 40 of these things. Isn't this fun?
