Blacklighters Gamble In Moving Opalzilla Finally Pays Off | Outback Opal Hunters

[@johnmckinley8447]

I have looked over this area and have the utmost respect for anyone enjoying this lifestyle. A rare breed indeed

[@melhawk8045]

The belt business is a reason to keep a spare on site, and a couple of battery op handheld black lights for while you wait for stuff to get fixed. Just start picking and tossing by hand while you wait, keep the impatience down!

[@Miamcoline]

These guys are cool. Really great spirits. Sucks to see hard workers struggle with little prospects of getting out of the hole in the immediate.

[@susanmiller6023]

A job I couldn't do though I bow down to you. When someone buys a ring with an opal in it for hundreds or thousands of £, €, $ or Au$ they don't think about the back breaking work, the stress, danger or anxiety of the people getting te rock out of the ground, cutting it, polishing it and setting it.

[@younggunsopalhunters]

Heck yeah nice work boys 🤠⛏

[@ieatcaribou7852]

Opal miners are champs, that’s some backbreaking work.

[@megansmith1382]

The flies are absolutely horrendous 😔 I couldn't work like that. However, I am happy they can and I get to watch. Its rather strange however, how do flies even exist out there like that??? in the dry heat? Idk its all good haha

[@Dawsons89]

Hopefully you all are using a short range spectrum black light, and a full range further down. Bad ass though!

[@christophermc2733]

Wow an entire 40 min show in 10 mins. Best this way

[@danielbrown8943]

Need to add some form of washer before being sorted can spray jets be added to the tumbler device?

[@betsygiddins6553]

Unfortunately, there is very little water in the area, so none can be spared to wash rock.

[@David-yh5po]

Love the show and wish I could get a chance to try it.

[@austin_b33l14]

Then just do it one day don’t wish anyone can do anything

[@joekalmar1085]

nothing stopping you lol, its dam hard work i can tell you

[@peterlennon5302]

It's not the work or the heat but the fly's that stops me

[@chrisbatey477]

Only half a million for a mining licence and a few thousand for a claim, anyone can do it

[@tate7254]

I would love to aswell but the costs of equipment and where I live there are no places that would even have a chance if black opel

[@NoRealPotential]

Thats arcing because of the battery. Bloke you just put a spanner across the back of the alternator

[@Cody435]

Ikr

[@marqueeviveiros8412]

they should use solar panels as a backup

[@jericholacey7206]

When they torch it with uv light, it'll look like vibranium from black panther.

[@leofisher3857]

I feel like opal mining would be so fun

[@TheChrist4ylor]

Problem pretty stressful too

[@ronmartin3755]

I can see the blasted flies are everywhere! Why doesn't Australia try and do something about that? They could spray everyday some kind of fly killing chemical! Eventually it would make the fly population smaller!

[@susanmiller6023]

Wouldn't fly nets stop them from getting to your mouth, nose and eyes?

[@GabeHelms7048]

Jesus christ , are those flies all over ya ?

[@garycraig9361]

Is there none who can have an effect on the flies "Downunder"?

[@judsondacostabezerrabezerr3362]

Beleza de trabalho 👍

[@johnestupido1418]

So he drove 80 km round trip and found the belt, purchased it all in an hour? I must be doing something wrong, because I can not get to my local Lowes, 6 km away (one way) and then back with a purchase in under 90 minutes.

[@jacobmarkoff7013]

I think they bought it in the town which was closer than the house where the spare was at

[@fauxmetaljacket3268]

When is KZbin hyping to make a comment section for the blasted commercials???!!!!!!

[@brycetheniceguy]

They livestream on Facebook

[@michaelamoz6053]

Can you get me a slab of this opal of 10 feet and 2 foot wide for a KINGS table and if biger to put in the bed chamber of the queens bed room and lamp stands

[@KaySan666]

not an ounce of foresight or due dilligence. keep that shit thats crucial, and movable, in your truck or by the front of your door in a box that you always take with you when you leave for work. At least if you do not want to keep the spares at the claim.

[@MrLohan1000]

Why is there so many flies?🤷🏽‍♂️

[@betsygiddins6553]

Because it’s Australia, and black flies are a part of life there.

[@MrLohan1000]

@@betsygiddins6553 that still doesn’t tell me why there’s so many flies there lol.

[@peterhatch1583]

Disconnect the battery or you be doing 80 klm more

[@falahangkawidjaya431]

hi

[@jeffreyramsey5350]

Opalzilla? Really? I mean Goldzilla works, but Opalzilla? Just doesn't set with me.

[@apocshadow1217]

Good thing your opinion doesn't pay the bills then.

[@williamdawson3353]

B roll broken belt B roll wet muddy stuff. 10 seconds found something WOW what lousy editing

[@adunputraa]

Found a tiny less 8mm stone for a minute digging, ask $1000 for a piece of rough. What a dream life for lazy and brainless people
