Included in the stash were 500 pounds of hand grenades, mortars and aircraft bombs that had been submerged in the waters of Lake Como.
A local fisherman discovered the explosives and immediately called the Italian Navy, who are now gathering them for detonation in a cave.
Don't worry -- George is nowhere near the danger. He's hard at work in Hawaii filming The Descendants.
Clooney's response? "This is not the first bomb I've experienced," he said via his rep.
