Dumpster Diving "It's Pretty Serious"

[@riftalope]

That "go cart" is- or rather was a Quantum powered wheelchair base and the back of a seat. 4 casters and central 2 wheels were removed along with the seat.

[@DayzDev007]

Just a crazy guy in a dumpster talking to himself, love it!

[@masterbryan7106]

My friend Brad. He save all his copper from dumpster diving. After 20 years of collecting. When #1 copper price rose to $4.50Ibs. he decided to sell to scrap yard. 40ft container full of copper. It ended up being. Just over 8500Ibs. He used the money to buy a new truck. Fully paid. I wish I had the commitment to save copper for that long. As of rite now 02/10/23. copper prices were I live is, $2.95Ibs.

[@karbear26]

That’s awesome!

[@debbielance3892]

Wow your friend had great will power. Happy for him.

[@samanthasimental3788]

That's amazing!

[@colleenrileymontoro8062]

That's awesome! Took some time to accumulate but in the end well worth it!

[@elizabethrose1766]

Amazing

[@rtzedaker8213]

I'm out of commission for a while. Had lung cancer surgery a couple weeks ago. At least I can enjoy watching you

[@dianejohnson9904]

There is something so satisfying when you find all that scrap metal that was going to end up in the landfill, making some money from it, and it being recycled to be reused.

[@beaverc2884]

Finding all those tasty morsels of scraps right away, now that's the way to start off an evening of scraping.

[@dankilbury1388]

I always wonder what people think when they come out and throw more stuff out and notice everything from yesterday is gone. Go Mike!!

[@nehemiahpouncey3607]

Even GameStop be trashing good Stuff too.

[@nehemiahpouncey3607]

Half to admit there is good loot in Them dumpsters tho. Maybe someone's collection of Playboy's Are in there.😂 Hustler and penthouse. Finders keepers.

[@Raindrop199]

​@@nehemiahpouncey3607 LOL exactly!! I do wanna check out and see what my local games top throws at after discovering Mike

[@davefave4351]

You deserve a Congressional medal for your dedication to the cause! Alright! Alright! Alright! 👊👊👊

That grill is a keeper. Clean it up and use it!! Great find Mike.

[@MikeTheScavenger]

[@dorothyc2801]

That stuff in that first dumpster was fighting back!

[@bonniejrobinson2819]

"See balls" is So very funny! 😁

[@MrJbowers29]

That ringer bucket would get some money, their expensive and that one looked in good shape

[@joeblow26]

This is one of those everyone's happy story! Mike's happy because he gets all the scrap and the place is happy because now their dumpster is somewhat empty and they can put more in without paying to dump it out!

[@jerrysmith6810]

That Thermos Fire and Ice cooler grill combo is sweet! definitely a keeper or good for a couple hundred bucks or so in clean working condition! Would love to have one of those again.

[@briansweeney2291]

Nice Mike scrappy scrappy scrap 👍😎

Mr. Meeseeks never disappoints to both educate and entertain.

Another fabulous run for you, young Mike. Congratulations.!!!

[@cindyrodriguez7982]

[@mikeblume8715]

My Favorite..Your the Greatest...look forward to every new one.. Christmas 🎄 every day...love that fire and ice portable BBQ

[@keithgriner330]

Awesome video, Mike you have a good weekend, see you on the next MTS show. 😎👊🏻

[@franciskucinski5635]

You're an Inspiration to us all you are straight forward perseverance and accomplish the task at hand.Clean every dumpster head to toe!

[@michaelhart7841]

I used to have one of those coolers . The grill takes a propane tank one of the small ones and it works like a champ . Great find ....

[@michellem2507]

Always sad to see your videos ends. Always looking for new or old ones…

[@robertlamb7513]

Mike the fishing poles with the tips broke off you can replace the tip. And the other reasons you punch and kick the bumpers is easy to figure out you do that to see if there is a animal in them and to see how full it is by the sound it makes

[@cherylhuot4436]

Wow! What a start! That was an amazing haul!! When I first started watching, I assumed you “assaulted” dumpsters to scare any critters that were inside! I learned pretty quick it was just YOU

[@8stringmonkey]

Figured it was to scare off any trash pandas.

[@lynfreeman2383]

Me, too. I would certainly be trying to scare away the bugs!

[@teresavalencia7825]

Omg, I laughed out loud when you were trying to figure out what that light thing was!! 😂 . Thank you for the entertainment! 🥰🥰🥰

[@philott8054]

That cooler is the best. Never seen anything like that before. I'd be fixing it up to keep for myself. You can find the craziest stuff. Happy scraping

[@Mark_nobody3]

Electric cooler are not cheap but a little fix up on a broken one will do wonders

[@thadsmith2889]

The light fixture/ speaker thing that you were contemplating it’s use had me dying! Great video as always Mike.

[@markneighbors4752]

It's amazing that you find so much when you go out to scrap

[@bridgethaig8923]

Mike what a lovely happy birthday video, loved all your happy comments easy peasy lon squeezie, your in prompt to cod piece, dumpster roses and all your lovely finds. And I'lll be happy to take your rain, just send it across the gulf.

[@bengone3349]

Those were some great grates you hauled. Another fun ride with you. Thanks

That Ridgid cutter is for cleaning up small miters and is actually a pretty cool tool. Nice find.

[@walmartian348]

[@chrisdroblyn]

Mike! That grill gotta be the BEST find of the night! Dude, we need a follow up video to see if it works! GREAT for that tailgate!

[@chevy51]

Love the videos Mike keep them coming buddy..

[@patzwahl8341]

I love it when you get excited about a dumpster full of good stuff !!

[@MrPhil1969]

I have seen such a thing. The ol' Thermos Fire and Ice. I do love that thing. It's an all in one picnic. It looks like you got all the accessories with it too. The white container is a grease catch that goes on one end and the black things in the cooler are shelves that slide into each side. And the regulator goes on the 1# propane tanks.

[@christophertaylor2464]

I like that thermos cooler it looks like a all in one tail gate party thing very cool find. GOD HAS TRULY BLESSED HIM ON THIS ONE. GOD IS GOOD GOD IS GREAT GOD BLESS YOU AND ALL WHO READ THIS AMEN.

It’s honestly crazy how you built not only a healthy hobby but a eco conscious one as well! Thanks for sharing the fun with us! Love your work man ✌️

[@joeblow26]

I'm not so sure you can call jumping into dumpsters healthy but it is a hobby nevertheless and it seems like you enjoys it

[@henryettacollins9095]

If I saw him I would call a police. I don't want anyone rooting through my garbage.

[@ltsallwood]

@@henryettacollins9095 Once you throw it out it's not your garbage lmao

Lucky to be in such a scavenge-rich area, that barbeque was a hoot, seems like someone would have thought of that sooner, first one I've seen, thumbs up ,for your channel!

[@barrypritchard2306]

Hi Mike the poles with the blue handles you need to keep same for your hook and it got broken and see if you can clean the BBQ and cooler to see if it works

[@stuartpulvermacher6861]

I think your work ethic is amazing Im 80 yrs old and get tired just watchung you I used to work hard myself and just retired 6 months ago I didnt want to but my body said I had to you are an inspiration my friend God bless the world we live in needs more like you

[@denishennessy1318]

That red go-cart thing is called a numpty spreader. Automatic chicken feeder! Quite popular here in the UK.

[@joshp6061]

Someone else said it’s a wheelchair base lol

[@annettebeavers7866]

Looks like a lot,so you can have a followup tomorrow.😘♥️😂👍👍

It's crazy how people / businesses leave their hard drives in computers and then simply abandonee them. Great video Mike!

[@jhonsiders6077]

The stuff I have found on hard drives all kinds of important stuff.

[@chrislewis2262]

I take a gander to see what's on them and then I wipe them clean and use them in my own systems for more storage space.

[@judypurcell6571]

I love the sound of trains keep up the good work dumpster-diving yay

[@weathertrainsrandomniss1083]

I thought you assaulted the dumpster like knocking to let the raccoons know you are coming in. Keep up the great videos. Cheers from Wisconsin

[@tghepburn1390]

Me too! I thought there'd be rats or roaches down there that Mike was testing for. So disappointed there isn't some secret Texas code or something.

That first one with all the drink machines was crazy!

[@clarkmeyer7871]

Mike, Your channel is so fun to watch! The items you find astound me…the stuff people toss and glad you recycle them. Question? Could you let us know what you do with the “puters”? How do you break them down to recycle? Thanks and keep up the good work and excellent commentary.
