Coal Miners dug this up over a Century ago not realizing its Historical Significance!

[@steveclark4291]

Thank you Brandon and everybody for the adventure and seeing some great finds !

[@Chaedron1]

It's always fun seeing ya'll fossil hunt with Wild Kyle, definitely keep these coming.

[@stevehowe1792]

I liked the exploring addition to the hunting relics, etc.

[@williambeichler4971]

Great video this morning. I do like fossil hunting! Thanks for sharing with us and take care

[@mirkatu3249]

Love watching your collabs and Kyle and Natalie are a fun couple to adventure with. :-)

[@leighswogger-pq9ml]

It was fun to see those fossils. Thanks for sharing!

[@cynthiaswearingen1037]

I do enjoy seeing y'all find the fossils! The fern fossils are gorgeous!❤

[@josephgiannetto7156]

I like the variety!

[@susancousins8766]

Way too cool thanks for posting this video. Have a fantastic weekend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💜

[@chrissettles4127]

Great video

[@rogercrawley6966]

Fossil hunting is pretty cool. I did some years ago in an abandoned strip mine. Found some neat fossils, but never really saved any of them. Wished I had. Thanks for sharing.

[@larrybland8106]

I love the fossil hunting also and all your other digs. Great job.

[@abbc2105]

That was cool! I’d like to see more fossils!

[@justjoy4239]

Hey Brandon! Love the collaboration with Kyle! Just saw you on his site!

[@gregsabo6371]

I love all of your adventures!

[@janelchambers6791]

Great finds and enjoyed the old mines. Kyle did well extracting that one piece that was as long as his arm. Keep them coming

[@timgrant8729]

I like the fossil hunting video. I like all of your videos! The metal detecting also. I especially like the history being told about every adventure you guys go on! I love it all! Keep it up and think about us here in Western NC. Thanks for all you do!

[@adventurearchaeology]

Hey Tim, you have definitely been in our thoughts and prayers!

[@kathleenemerick3814]

Loved the fossil finds and the fact that Wild Kyle and the ladies were there too. Kyle is good people!!! Brandon, you keep making them and we'll keep watching them, Dad Gum!!!

[@susanfranks-craun811]

I really enjoyed the fossil hunting. A nice change of pace!

[@alienallen2983]

Love all your family add friends adventures Brandon THANK YOU 👍🙏>>>💚

[@TaneKarnes]

I used to dig thru a shale formation on our farm as a kid in PA. I'd find small stuff. Was fun. Do you guys ever go rockhounding? I'd love to go to N Carolina one day to hunt some nice stones of the ruby, emerald, tourmaline, etc. persuasion. 😃

[@katherinehoffman9865]

I love your exploring in rocks, water and dirt. Go for it

[@Carolbearce]

I love seeing the fossils you find. I have a few really nice rocks with fossils in my garden. Very cool to find.

[@donaldmillsap6413]

I enjoy all the videos yall do. Yes the exploration and fossil videos are a good change of pace. 👍

[@badmom2goody29]

Would love to see more!

[@MarvinHuff-cp2gg]

Awesome finds love fossils thanks for sharing

[@samuelsiedschlag4486]

Very cool video. Enjoy the weekend everyone.

[@mandybrown7758]

Yes Wild Kyle has a great channel also, i started watching you brandon about 2 1/2yrs ago which got me started with many treasure adventures and i love it 😊

[@Clarytee217]

Watching this while I’m enjoying my Saturday morning breakfast.🥞 😊 ☀️

[@mattsmithcantonga9652]

Great Video. I like the change of pace. 3 to 2 is a good mix. 3 bottle videos and then a metal detection followed by an adventure video. Just my opinion. They are all great and keep up the good work!! Matt and the boys

[@ckatl45]

Enjoyed this very much. Please do more of theses. Thank you.

[@jerrybailey6584]

You brought back memories from my childhood. I grew up in Midfield (west of Birmingham) wading in Valley creek finding all kinds of fossils. I loved the video!

[@Anita-de7xi]

That was very cool. Thanks, more please. 😁👍

[@HalsPals]

Cool.

[@carolynsimone8647]

Anything you guys put on your channel...we'll watch ..!!! Enjoy all your videos...🥰🥰

[@juliestokes9078]

Very interesting.🤔 Yes, please do more things like this.😁

[@herbertlee8034]

Cool history and fossils👍

[@adventurearchaeology]

So good seeing yall this weekend!

[@jamessekulich2344]

Awesome time you all. I personally love everything that you all do, coming at you from Michigan, where our state rock is the Petoskey stone a fossil. I know that I don't represent everyone, but I enjoy everything that you enjoy, so keep up the excellent content and I'll keep watching and commenting. Thx

[@DirectorAmelia]

8:38 Bottle! 😄✨ Fossil hunting is so fun, but it also makes me happy that you're all still keeping an eye out for bottles too I'd be down to watch more fossil excursions, I'm just here for the adventure lol

[@adventurearchaeology]

You sound like our kind of people! Haha We enjoy doing it all!

[@ravioli9728]

That looks like it was fun. You always have something cool going on.

[@masonmercmetaldetecting]

So cool! Amazing history!

[@Roadglide08]

Interesting and informative!

[@Digger-rn9yh]

Awesome video

[@TammyMitchell5]

I’m in Mississippi. When you were showing the ground damage, I said “hogs” the same time you did. They are horrible here, too.

[@DebbieClark-w2h]

Love the fossils! We don't have anything like that here in Missouri!

[@bige1108]

I like everything you guys put out your videos always inspire me

[@historylooker7]

I do enjoy the fossils !! 😎👍 I enjoy all of your content !!! Just do what ya feel is right , I guess 😎✌️🍀⛏️⛏️

[@violaheflin2034]

Nice informative video. Thanks for sharing😊 Any thing you all do is great

[@abbieschultz7449]

Absolutely yes to more fossil videos! You and Kyle are my two fav adventurers, awesome collab video!

[@adventurearchaeology]

Thanks so much!

[@artillerest43rdva7]

hello Mr Glass yes that was interesting to see the fossils, there is an escarpment which is a part of a fault line near where I live! they have a ton of fossil's in the granite rocks. react different then the shale , harder to split. but still a fun time searching

[@adventurearchaeology]

Absolutely! It’s all fun for us!

[@PamelaZurawik]

I love fossil discovery. It is a nice "layer " of Alabama history. While I do not know just how to preserve the stone it would make great decor on an patio or out door shower as trim or a whole wall. A display of your own natural history.

[@davidtammyames1242]

We love all the adventures!

[@fairabbigailgrace]

I don't comment much on any videos, but I wanted to let you know that I love whatever you all put on your channel.

[@davidspinney2023]

Hi Brandon any day you find interesting things makes a good video

[@jimthetrucker]

Horse tail still exists although much smaller and is a hollow tube. It got smashed flat but it was round at one time. Miners look for it as it grows in mineral soil where gold can be found in placer deposits.

[@peggyhester5068]

I enjoy anything that ya'll come up with 😊

[@shawnnorrell1686]

I enjoy watching you look for rocks, bottles , fossils and arrowheads or metal detecting 👍😎👍

[@JulieMelberg]

I liked the fossil hunt!

[@billykelly5798]

This was a awesome change

[@markvick3984]

That looks like fun. I hope you can find one sometime where the fossilized plant has turned to coal inside. Those are really cool looking and would be something worth preserving in resin.

[@BBQNBLUES]

Brandon; Have you ever teamed up with a local University Archaeology dig? 'Old Dogs, New Tricks' :)

[@mikepetrucha2774]

I've already seen Kyle's video from this adventure, so it is really cool to see it from your perspective. My vote is for more of these types of videos. The 12 minutes of the video flew by for me, so obviously it kept me engaged, Miranda sure seems to enjoy fossil hunting too. To be able to find 300 million year old fern and other plant fossils is so awesome!

[@djpuffthethird]

Coal Measures ❤

[@sf9145]

I liked it. Cool fossil ferns!

[@LouisaLee63]

I enjoyed the video!

[@adventurearchaeology]

Yay! Thank you!

[@stuartcunnington6283]

More fossils please brother 👍✌️

[@janicegelbhaar7352]

That's so cool , love your videos, they never disappoint,thanks

[@benitagrattan193]

I was born in West Virginia...went back a few years ago to find out that my cousin showed me plant fossils that we dug out of the mountain...it's from the same time, y'alls are from

[@sharonduvick1606]

Fossils are a nice change, but mostly just longer videos. At least 20 minutes.

[@katherinenoggle6407]

Love fossils!!!

[@juliefowler4660]

I loved watching the fossil hunt.

[@dananderson128]

I liked it because it isn’t as long as Kyle’s videos which can be somewhat repetitive.

[@dougpittman5714]

Did you find any petrified wood?

[@zenseed75]

I'm down for whatever. Fossils, bottles, lost treasures, etc.

[@lenoraedmondson5590]

That looks really squatchy to us. 🤣

[@yvettewatson5822]

WoW......Fantastik specimens❣️

[@janedickson-gw4pb]

So ch a cool video!!

[@Ephesians617]

Cool video! Hey what is the name of your other channel? It's been a while since it's come across my feed.

[@jjslibrary]

I used to believe in a very young earth before I studied geology in depth and saw firsthand the incredible quantity and variety of the formations. One small piece of evidence that I love is that we have ice cores with annual snowfall layers where the recent layers can be directly correlated with recorded historical events, and they go back over 100,000 years. We can get dates for major volcanic eruptions from ash and measure the ancient atmosphere from bubbles in the ice.

[@Flea_ip]

You asked me to let you know, so I am :) Personally I don't have much interest in fossils. I'm far more interested in man-made finds, like old bottles or civil war artifacts or antiques. The river walking, bottle-picking, and metal detecting videos are what I originally subbed for, and I respect that people like fossils and that's their jam, but it's just not really mine, so if you continued to do them (which you're totally free to do; it's your channel!), then I'll just skip them most likely, and instead keep watching the bottle digs and the metal detector ones. Just my two cents you asked for :)

[@adventurearchaeology]

We appreciate the honest feedback!

[@shellmeyoursiii9380]

Most of the ferns are Neuropteris and the age is Carboniferous of course (Coal Age).

[@alanatolstad4824]

I'll take any kind of history! Go for it!

[@hobbyfarmer62]

Fun part is they can be a few thousands of years to millions of years old and I think the colors are at least partially from the minerals in the rock.

[@soonverysoon1465]

Amazing how they were cover so quickly to make these fossils.

[@RogerEbert-vy5pv]

This one was fine.

[@brandonlollis1506]

Don’t like rocks love old bottles

[@jonscobey677]

Don’t you have an eBay store?

[@janicesnell650]

I like seeing all your finds. Your side trips, not so much. A little here & there is ok...

[@Whocares.........]

What no trilobites? 😅

[@MrTrecutter1]

Gold mining

[@midnightman352]

very kool

[@BoldLion]

It was cool

[@jbrobertson6052]

It is an Anacin Tablet bottle

[@chrisoliver1327]

Tried to like your video wouldn't take the like,strange. Cool video.

[@jimmylarge1148]

I don’t even like when wild Kyle is after fossils 😂 I prefer both of u stick to collectibles.

[@garymaylon2025]

What part of Alabama are you looking for these fossils.

[@rainemarsh8409]

I might be in the minority, but I firmly believe in a flood of Biblical proportions. As in the world-wide flood of Noah's time.

[@carrieann1640]

I like all your videos, but this one took me back to my childhood when my father would take me fossil hunting in Western New York. Generally all we found were trilobites and brachiopods. As much as I wanted one, I never found a trilobite. When I was older I did wonder why he never handed me even a small one. When I was still older and putting things to order after he died, I found his collection. He had painted the features on their faces, if a trilobite may be said to have a face. I forgave him.

[@adventurearchaeology]

That’s an awesome memory and glad you found his collection!

[@carrieann1640]

@@adventurearchaeology Thank you.

[@michaelkurtz1967]

Where you have a lot of hogs that have not been hunted you should carry for your protection.

[@AL-vo2uh]

Coal is made from decaying plant material, so yes, I do believe these are like 300 million years old more or less, but I am no expert. 🤫Alabama used to be a wetland (millions of years ago & that is also when they got a lot of really awesome plant and amphibian fossils.) I liked this video, thank you for sharing your adventures. In my book, fossils (and tbh really cool rock formations) fit under the category of "treasures" for me.
