Absolute amazing !!! The chance that you find the otter half..just wow congrats 🎉

Thanks so much for watching everyone! Here is my patreon channel for extra content: www.patreon.com/mamlambo

WOW !!! Absolutely INCREDIBLE ! Not only with finding the first half, but OMG finding the other half and yes, with a zillion other rocks on that vast beach! Congratulations is an understatement !

I find it oddly satisfying to be so happy for a complete stranger. 🙂

ALBY! HELL YES! I remember you giving me a sneak peek one day when I was having a horrible week. Project Alby has a special place in my heart because of it. Such an amazing concretion, excellent job finding him

When I was a kid (here in the US) my Grand Father was a farmer and when he'd till up his fields each year, I'd spend a couple of days kicking around the dirt looking for arrowheads. I spent hours of my life out there but I only found maybe 4-5 and some fragments which amounted to finding about one artifact a year. Anyway, I recall on one specific day, I found a piece of a broken arrowhead and if it had been complete, it would have been the largest one I'd ever found by large margin. It was an exciting find, even though it was incomplete. Well on that same day, maybe 30 minutes later, while kicking around the field about 75ft/30m away from where I found the first piece, I found another piece of a big arrowhead, which alone was really exciting and had never happened before! When I got home that evening I was examining my two finds and to my surprise... they fit together and were of the same arrowhead! I tell this story because it felt like a small miracle. After looking around for years I never found much however, on just one day, I found two pieces to the largest artifact I'd ever found. Small miracles like that can happen when we're looking for stuff like this, so if you're ever searching for the other half of a fossil, don't give up hope. It can happen!

I’ve been wanting to get into fossil hunting. I keep getting recommended videos of people finding a rock and then immediately shattering it destroying any possible fossils inside. I thought to myself, there has to be a better way. So glad to have found your channel.

So excited to see this posted to the channel! I can’t wait to see it get written and documented. If it’s a new species itd be really cool to have a paleoartists draw it

That was a very awesome find for sure. Anything rare and possibly a new species of animal is a priceless treasure for sure.

That has to be the best of fossil find circumstances to find a continuance of a previous find. Awesome for sure.

Dang ! I wasn"t there and I got thrilled with you. Brings to mind all the hours and days I'd spent hunting fossil evidence, in Toronto Ontario Canada, and then toodling my finds to the curator's office at The Royal Ontario Museum for identification. Such fun.

Is it wrong to NOT be surprised that you found the other half? I can only imagine the hours that you put in. Congrats- keep the content coming- I love the channel. Thank you.

So cool to find the other half after such a long time! Congrats on the amazing find!🥳

You found half of a needle in a haystack not once, but twice. Incredible

Congratulations on such an amazing find. The chances of this must have been astronomical, a testament to your passion. What a treat, thank you for sharing.

i´m just amazed that these rocks don´t seem to move as much as I thought over what must be decades. Congrats on this really important find!

Oh boy - nothing better than seeing someone so genuinely happy! Great work :-)

Hit the lottery finding the other half! Congratulations!

You're crazy to walk the same beach over and over... but so lucky ! I feel your joy, refreshing ! I'm so happy for you !

What a great find, not only the first half but the excitement of finding the second half 9 months later. I thought that it would be a good candidate for the xray thing you do or button scan, as you could then 3d print all the bones and put it together. I'm 62 and find it fascinating what your doing with the fossils Regards Richard 🇬🇧

That's amazing that you found the other half!

Not only an amazing find but hitting the lottery while being stuck by lightning on a clear day...finding the second half! Congrats and hope they can either identify or name it after you ! 🎉✨️🍻🍻🍻

You are my favorite rock star. Your videos are pure joy to watch. Your exitement is so contagious.

Woah!!! I cannot believe you found it! Incredible! Congrats!

Crazy, watching it I could immediately see it was the negative of the original concretion split due to the bone orientation. VERY well done!

That is sooo awesome!!! Congratulations on finding the other half of your bird! Amazing.

That gave me chills, how incredible to see those ancient remains, and so much there, i do hope it will be named after you, you do so much dedicated, ethical and talented work. Great to see your channel grow exponentially, started following you at about 8k subs, well deserved success, you are established now and deserve millions. 💥👏👏👏👏👏👏

Top level stuff. Patience and consistent work. Well done.

So freaking cool. Congrats, dude!

Super amazing to have found the other half. How awesome! Congrats and thanks for sharing, your joy is delightful to see.

Yeah Man!! That's absolutely spectacular. Great, great find. You were grinning ear to ear.

Your laser focus paid off! Congratulations! Those are really amazing.

What are the odds. That's amazing! Can't wait to hear the details.

I am stoked to be here for the premiere 😊

Awesome finds and awesome story! Hope they name it after you! Cheers!

I was fossil hunting with my (pregnant at the time) wife on Penarth beach in Wales. I just found half a nodule with a beautiful complete (large) ammonite in it. I picked it up and started to walk towards my wife who was perhaps 20 yards away - when she stooped down and picked up a similar size rock. Yep it was the other half :)

Fascinating! I hope it's a new species! This makes me consider moving to NZ

Wow. That’s amazing. And, just aesthetically, those are beautiful bones. Thank you for sharing!

That's so awesome! What an amazing find! The fact you found the other half months after the first, truly amazing

* So many long bones. It is really amazing that so many bones were preserved. ~ Congratulations!! ~ It's like winning the lottery ticket Twice!

Congrats my friend! 🎉

Whoa !! That is AMAZING ! the shirt/thick/hollow bone looks so much like the first one.... the museum must be shaking there head at your good luck (and fossil hunting skills) ssp name should be mamlambo

You can't imagine how happy I am for you. Another step forward for science. Well done!!!!

Wow! That really is absolutely amazing. Congrats and that just blew my mind! Wow!

That is absolutely amazing! You must have spent hundreds of hours combing that beach to find the other half. Good on you!

Meant to be! That and dogged determination. Never give up!! You've been rewarded for your consistent searching. Hope you get your name included in the official records.

What are the odds?! Top stuff once again, Mr. Mamlambo!

I get very excited when I find animal bones on the ground (that are probably from the butcher) I can’t imagine how happy you felt after you uncovered this amazing find

Woow, you are living my childhoods dream. Its awesome to see that!

Incredible! Amazing that you found the other half!

Dude that is way way cool ....thats fantastic, I'm stoked for you

Wow! Such an amazing find!

Amazing. I like that look of joy when you find a fossil!

Persistence pays off, just got to keep looking. I'm excited just watching, congratulations

Wow fantastic detecting and persistence. Well done

Wow! Congratulations! 🎉🎉🎉

Congrats 🎉🎉🎉, you and your fossils are amazing and so unbelievable

Astounding! Congratulations!

Congratulations, it does not even cover it. I'm sure your friends in the fossil community are overjoyed for you, and with this find. Be blessed. My friend.

Outstanding video awesome that you were able to get all the pieces to this bird to bad the skull is not complete thank you for sharing this with us six stars brother

Awesome man congrats

Far fantastic. Congrats I’m so excited for you

Amazing find in deed ,congrats

Such an amazing find!

Congrats on your evolution! It was so frustrating to watch you leave large bone clusters for crabs. I love both, but bones can tell such a larger picture of past life on earth.

That was awesome!

Fantastic!

Outstanding! Just amazing you found that. 👍😎🇦🇺

Yet another stunning discovery, and this time a double whammy over several months...

Lucky nice find brother

Nice find!

Congratulations! 🎉

That's amazing... congratulations 🎉🎉

That's so cool!!

Congratulations!! from Tennessee.

So happy for you! Can't believe you managed to find the other half! So was the skull inside?

Wow, what are the odds! Well done bro.

Cannot wait for the new species addition under Birbus mamlambonis

Very very cool!!

Congratulations!

Awesome!!

Just freaking amazing

Now you need to get a 3d scan of it so you can make a 3d print!

That’s freaking awesome 💪

Wow too cool! 🎉

Unreal!! "Avis Morne" has a nice ring to it 🙂

wow! i hope they name it after you!

Incredible find, it was meant to be!

That is so cool

What are the odds, great work.

This is so freaking cool. Not to get hopes up, but in the meantime, SURELY you'll be thinking about what to name it... just in case... :)

Amazing luck!

That seems pretty miraculous! If it’s a new species, will they name it after you? 😄

Increíble!!!!

Absolutely unbelievable

CONGRATULATIONS

Congratulations mate! What an amazing find! Will you be able to contribute to the name, if it is a new species?

Needle in a bazillion haystacks!😮

I told you before ..... its a saber toothed duck, its the missing link between the woolly penguin and tigers

Hopefully they let you name the new species.
