Dumpster Diving "Jesus Christ Superstar!"
Рет қаралды 1,127,113
3 жыл бұрынHowdy, 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!

In a nutshell, I ‘m an avid dumpster diver, scrapper, picker, treasure hunter and underwater connoisseur. I prowl the city streets in search of dumpster loot, curbside treasures & scrap metal as well as scour the river bottoms for lost valuables during the summer months when I can scrounge up enough money for gas. Be sure to stay subscribed to stay up to date with my latest expeditions, y'all!

Watching you mike, brings back memories of when we use to dive the dumpsters in the trailer parks for aluminum. We’d use the cash for gas just to get out of the park.

The wires in the Superstar dumpster may have been for audio visuals from a theatre group Mike. Thanks for another awesome video. I admire your commitment and hard work. I'm also envious of your hot weather. It's been raining and bitter here on the flip side of the planet (New Zealand) for weeks now. I could do with some summer sun :)

Keep up the awesome vids!

You left behind some of the crane webbing you were calling "tow straps", those things are $10-15 a piece used when you can find them for the 1", new they're $25-$50 and the 2"-3" you got are worth much much more. The wider and longer they are the more they're worth. Bigger companies like utility companies and state agencies, military etc. have to throw them away if they get so much as a nick in them or show any wear. Smaller construction companies who aren't under the same scrutiny use the used ones all day every day and are always on the hunt for them. They have to have the orange sewed in label though which those had.
