Here is another video from one of our fossil hunts, make sure to stick around to the end of the video to see the special fossil at the end! This is an insight into the past, what life was like 180 Million Years Ago even before many of the most famous land-dwelling Dinosaurs ever existed.

I'm disable too ,and love fossils hunting. Sit on a beach , or open air pebbles ,stones agregate ,border of roads ,walls,in a quarry ...if you're not blind like me for couple of month because of a type 2 diabet caused by tablets sentenced in the usa to billions ,but still provided in France ,or blind like other misfortuned fellows fellows , in an aera of your arms ,you'll find ,crystals,enigma of many textures or colours ,different on same stone.. microfossils in small holes ... If yhe aera is crystaline stones ,don't hope to find fossils ,all is melting from the fire of earth ...but whats colours sometimes ... Many places of sedimentary place are sterile ... Sometimes on 1or 2 km high ,because was no shore there ,few sea animals ,on the Earth ,or a place after massiv extinction ...but where it'happens, lot of bones,teeth ,shells ...snd maybe for some species was it like elefant's cimetary . in the local association of naturalist i belongs to ...twice ,the members refused to give me a place in their car (covoituring)...worst...they answer my request " have your own car!) I - i have no licence " pass you're licence !"...i have no budget for it....segregation of poverty ,fragile,orphans ,victims....who help ?... when wars or civil crimes all arround to make other masses of trauma ,extorsion ... They can't have directly dlaves to proove their power....they need ti get the power ...but with lâchety ! on poor fragile,innocents,minusvalid,traumatised victims folk

Our location is the West Coast of NZ. Fossil of various shapes and sizes have been found all around our harbor over the years as well as both the North and South of our areas. The largest pinguin standing just over 4' tall was found in our harbor. Shells like yours and many many Belemnites are also found here. No Ammonites have been found as yet as far as I know, though I did find an enormous imprint of one many years ago on our East Coast. Your type of mudstone looks the same as we have here except ours's is crumblier being an open West Coast.

You're lucky to live in such a good place. In our Middle Volga region, the ancient sea was located about 160-80 million years ago, but there is not even close to such a density of finds. I went through the abandoned limestone quarry, but found only about 20 clam shells from the Late Cretaceous period. Moreover, there were no ammonites or belemnites among them. Perhaps they are enclosed in the thickness of the rock.

I'd say that the beautifully recovered side part of _the fish must surely be a find of a lifetime!!! - _So_ pristine after all those millions of years all things considered! . . . (For me,_ it's got a kind of 'Christmassy-eve'-feel to it every time ''the hammer falls'', and we wait to see what'll be exposed inside!!! 😃) Your videos has improved considerably over time, and there's a definite element of 'professionalism' shining through along the way, what with the waterfalls and panoramic sweeps! . . . (PS: When watching this episode, I just had a 'revelationary' idea; ''What if we got all the [crazy] world leaders gathered together, dressed them up for the occasion, and gave them each a hammer and a chisel and urged them all to go with you fossil hunting in these Yorkshire beaches (naturally, with coffee & snack-breaks at 'appropriate' intervals)! . . . What wouldn't something like *_that_* do for world peace!!! . . . . 😉👍) _Anywhohow,_ thanks a bunch for sharing you guys, and respect going out to you both from nippy and rainy 🇳🇴🙏( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°)

I'm noticing that you move the fossils quite a bit when showing them. In person, it wouldn't be hard to study them quickly, but through video on our side, it's difficult to focus quickly enough before you move again to clearly see the details of the smaller specimens. I enjoyed this! I love fossil stuff but you always find videos of people fossil hunting, but not really many doing prep work or the other aspects of fossil collection. This was nice. I had wanted to go into paleontology, anthropology, or general biology, but ended up going down a different path. I still love watching videos on all these things. Thanks for posting! I'll sub.

My eyes may be playing tricks on me but amongst the cobbles I am possibly seeing some nicely hand worked lithics/ Stone Age tools, a hand axe & a couple oval shaped choppers, I've seen archeological publications showing some great flint achuelean hand axes found midway up the east coast shoreline, a place called red beach or red bluff? I enjoy fossils and early human handiworks. cheers from the Pacific west coast.

Thanks for showing us, seems that those fossils were buried somewhat suddenly, as if the fish was lying on the sea floor then it would have been eaten or rotting, but they appear to be suddenly "entombed" in the mlimestone
