Howdy, y'all! My name is Mike and I absolutely love scavenging for free stuff, random treasures, lost valuables and other interesting artifacts. I mainly rock the dumpster diving scene but can be found digging through trash curbside as well as scavenging the river bottoms for lost treasures in the summer months. Join me on my epic voyages!

At least Mike’s singi….er..yeah, singing (if you can call it that), ensures you won’t fall asleep while watching late at night😂. What amazing finds. How can people bring themselves to chuck that stuff away rather than cash it themselves. Love the death cries of the scrap being torn apart. What an imagination. Great video! 👍

@j.lietka9406 11 ай бұрын

Mike, what might be a good video is when you go to the scrap yard to turn your scrap in for $$, is to help those doing the same thing, to identify what metals are what, a good way to separate them, and if any are not worth taking. Thank you 🤓

When I see you pick though and get little pieces that just weigh a couple ounces it makes my heart glad. Most scrap guys won't mess with little pieces because there just isn't any money in it. When I see you get the little tiny pieces I know you're not doing it just for the money, you actually care about the environment and want to keep the stuff out of the landfill and recycled.
