Dumpster Diving "While We're Talkin' About Prepositions"

Howdy, y'all! My name is Mike and I absolutely love scavenging for free stuff, random treasures, lost valuables and other interesting artifacts. I mainly rock the dumpster diving scene but can be found digging through trash curbside as well as scavenging the river bottoms for lost treasures in the summer months. Join me on my epic voyages!

In a nutshell, I ‘m an avid dumpster diver, scrapper, picker, treasure hunter and underwater connoisseur. I prowl the city streets in search of dumpster loot, curbside treasures & scrap metal as well as scour the river bottoms for lost valuables during the summer months when I can scrounge up enough money for gas. Be sure to stay subscribed to stay up to date with my latest expeditions, y'all!

That is most definitely starry night, lol. Cool find.

[@rickwilliams9350]

Go for it Mikey-love your action - makes me wish I could do this. At 79 makes me envious of your youthful abilities - you please appreciate your capabilities and talents - such as your wood working skills. Rick 😊❤

[@swampgator2012]

That’s starry night. The one you mentioned is called the scream 🙂

[@johnmakin4337]

Cool thing about dumpster diving. Not counting the scrap is you can have anything you find!!

[@jerrytaylor2532]

You are the number one on KZbin I will watch till the end of my life . I love how you say your not going to jump in and you do (I know you’re jumping in you not fooling me I know you’re jumping in that’s what I love about you)

[@gene_takovic57]

The landfills thank you, Mike! Peace be with you.

[@thinklikeadog007]

The real gems are the Christmas Gifts!!! 🤣🤣🤣

[@mimiprays8288]

The scream is by Munch. That was starry night by Van Gough...Nice bunch of finds.

[@j.lietka9406]

Mike, you take wwwaayy more stuff than I would! Think the black box (electronic dumpster w apple macbook boxes) is a document scanner. When I see or find broken glass, I slow down my moving stuff around. I dont scrap, I just look in random dumpsters, curbside junk piles, for electronics. Good scrappin' just the same! Thought for just 1 minute you really found some macbooks! 🤓

[@cawierin411]

That was Starry Night. The Scream has the man screaming and it is by a different artist not Van Gogh

[@cawierin411]

Edvard Munch did The Scream

[@whiteelephantvideos1343]

Gustav Klimt

[@cawierin411]

No. Edvard Munch is The Scream. Google it. Klimt does other styles of work like The Bathers.

[@cherrytreeblossom8475]

Munch did several versions of The Scream.

[@jmzthree]

There is a print of the screaming man with the starry night background, but there is also one with the joker

[@oliverwabe55]

Hey mike.. Alryt y"ll...luv it when you say it.... 😂😂😂

Coolio finds , Mike!! Peace....💜

[@johnstutz4458]

Those shelves are great to put on a basement floor, or any cement floor to keep stuff dry.

[@michaelkaudze1883]

Take a shot every time Mike says "STUFF".

That is starry night, the scream is the one you are thinking of. Lol

[@elainephleps4705]

I use to joke my son at Xmas. A toaster box full of clothes. He was disappointed he really wanted a toaster. One yr baby wipes He just became a dad. I put in a bunch of welding supply s. He said they really could of used the wipes. That was the next box!!! Lol Angel from Norfolk VA

[@maryyates2986]

Sneak peek of the mike! Christmas shopping done!

[@xtremeclean9049]

That was Starry Night... not the original of course. The screaming guy is a Edvard Munch painting called The Scream.

[@79tazman]

Are you sure? I think it was the original ;)

Mike u found a lot of scrap metal. Have a great day

[@marlinknable3543]

On those printers that you find you can turn in the ink cartridges and toner cartridges to Staples and they give you credit that you can spend at Staples!

[@faroneaux]

Many pallet yards ONLY buy "standard" size pallets.

[@elmernunezofficial]

nice pick bro, from phillipines

[@1armida]

Great haul!

[@snagger5299]

You need to take a picture of you and your wife and put it in those frames that you found and then put it in the boxes for the laptop Merry Christmas

[@janetthurston852]

I thought the same thing!

[@beanpie7191]

Funny seeing you find framed pictures of the 2017 Astros in a trash can, since they were using trash cans to cheat in 2017 lmao

[@jaymike4060]

Mike, I wish I could go behind you and take what you leave behind . That would be awesome!!!!

[@adrienbastarache8096]

Mike you should get a stick with a magnet on the end to pick up sheet of metal.

[@marksanders4740]

Mike, we need to talk. I work for a company that allows me to work in different neighborhoods and I see scrap all the time. I would be happy to pick it up for you. Washers, dryers, refrigerators, and such.

Hey Mike my yard takes those Predators as long as they came with your regular metal they will accept them if it's mixed in

[@GEAUXFRUGAL]

Those refrigerant tanks make pretty cool stoves.

[@mrkipling2201]

Edvard Munch did the painting of the scream. I’ve sold Mac book boxes and iPhone boxes, empty ones, on eBay. I sold an iPhone X box, empty, for £15 on eBay.

[@larryupfront4013]

Nice. Keep up the good work.

[@MrYuk-xp4bl]

I wish you would take those bundles of boxes to the post office so they can be used, so much waste.

[@volkhen0]

They wouldn’t be able to sell it anyway as it would not be on stock. Maybe someone who ships a lot of stuff (like me) could use it.

[@MrYuk-xp4bl]

@@volkhen0 The USPS boxes are free at the post office and can also be ordered online, delivered to your door.

[@volkhen0]

@@MrYuk-xp4bl I see, I didn’t know that. I’m not from US. But I guess you could use them to send goods by UPS or FedEx etc. I sell a lot of stuff on our Polish version of eBay and boxes are always handy.

[@metaldragonbraveheart]

The mc book pro boxes sell well in ebay,

He can always make a love glove

[@Finallyretired2022]

Have to say there’s quite a difference between how you scrap now and how you scrapped 3 yrs ago. I watched you throw 2 short filing cabinets to the side and leave them. And your attitude has changed for the better. Not to mentioned you’ve cleaned up your vocabulary too ! Lol

[@MommaOG]

I'd be so mad to get a Christmas gift from you🤬😂😂😂

[@PaulaLenz-wh5km]

Mike my son delivered paper to the Empire State Building in NYC One day when the truck was empty he asked if they had pallets the guy showed him a room full of pallets my son loaded up the truck and came home with over 800 dollars they paid 15.00 per pallet so there is good money in doing it

[@greekgods3399]

love it

[@marinemom5630]

I do same thing at Christmas get like phone boxes, boot boxes, and so on. I will put like socks, shirts maybe even a toy. Something to match the same weight as what would of been in the boxes

[@dianespragg2451]

Well Mike, didn't you do well, great video 🤑👏

Some ppl wld buy those empty apple boxes mike.coz sometimes when ppl wanna sell away their iMac,iPhone most shops wld ask in full such as box,cable,SIM card pin(thingy)the full set I mean.ppl wld pay a good $$ for a clean box. 🤙🏻

Macbook Pros for Xmas what a surprise for your family . . . better start running before they open them!

[@w8what575]

U know, I found a drone box for one of those mini drones which i didn’t think was in there but grabbed it anyway just because...got home and looking through everything I found and opened that box up and the thing was in there! It was so light tho it felt empty...so....just saying..check that kind of stuff cuz they’re so light and a lot of times people won’t take out the extra propeller parts they come with...I’ve had a few people ask me to look for the replacement parts or broken ones so they could fix theirs

[@danielsteward5090]

That is 'starry night's ,you are talking about the scream. Different painting. If I'm not mistaken.
