Thanks for the warning, Raven. People don't always realize the dangers in and around their own homes. When I moved into my house a few years ago, I noticed a metal stake sticking up about 2 feet out of the ground near my pool. I tried pulling it out, digging it out, etc...... I couldn't budge it. I was worried because it was right next to the cement apron around the pool and I have young neices and nephews and at the time my son was an infant. I was worried that the kids or some of my drunk friends could slip and end up skewering themselves on the stake. I ended up digging a few feet down and cutting it off with a sawzall, then put a metal plate over it and filled in the dirt. I later found out that it was a huge drill bit for drilling through rocks that had been used when they put in the pool. It got stuck and they couldn't get it out. I can't believe the previous owner of the house had left it there for years and risked someone getting hurt.
