As someone who is disabled and cannot go on fossil hunting adventures, I really appreciate your taping of these hunts. Brightens my day!

You can go on fossil hunting but you need help.

As a carer who pushes wheelchairs all day and also cannot go on fossil hunting adventures i too enjoy this channel.

I think that showing pictures of the actual creatures, pointing to the parts being restored and telling some of those animals histories, adds a really nice dimension to your vlogs!! Rik

[@YorkshireFossils]

Thanks Rik, we’ll have to try and do more of that!

Please continue adding prep videos if you can. That was great! You don’t see those kind of videos with such excellent producing like you did so would love to see you do more! Thank you! ❤

We certainly will aim to keep producing more videos like that, plenty more in store!

I absolutely love these videos. I am a rock hound myself so I totally understand the love for this! I also love learning about ancient history so this is fascinating to me!

[@chrisnelson6686]

I love your prep videos too. A tip I learned when working on odontolite (blue dinosaur bone) for jewelry long ago is that the super glue I used would fail after a year or two. I started using 2 part clear epoxy, it was clear and much stronger. Any way thanks for the great videos!

I struggle to get my head around the amount of time thats past since they were living breathing creatures. Love this content 👏 👌

I'm so pleased I've seen your film as I found what I thought was a vertbray bone but I can now see that it is one of the didgets like the ones you show being glued back into position, I found it in the Lyme Regis area in the South West of the UK, keep up the good work, regards John

Kudos to you both for your dedication in finding and the preservation of these ancient treasures. Really enjoy your videos. Looking forward to many more of your discoveries.

Amazing work and beautiful fossils.. Thank you for sharing and good luck to you bouth Love watching this video 💕👍💕

[@sharkamov]

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 ͡°)

Hello, I recently discovered your channel and love what you do! The fossil hunts are great as well as the openings, spot the fossil, and the preparation clips. When you inserted the dinosaur graphics into some of the videos was great too! We really enjoy the scenery clips and your presentation. Your videos are interesting and also very calming to watch. Thanks so much for what you do and greetings from the USA.

Thanks so much, more fossils to come! We’ll keep trying to vary the videos up and possibly some more dinosaur graphics in future videos! 🐙🦎

[@plhebel1]

Outstanding, Your very blessed you be near a place where so many sea creature fossils are found. I love finding, shaping and polishing stones myself but the fossils I have found thus far are tiny except for a type of cuddle fish I found once. The fossil fish is increasable what a find. I'll keep watching.

[@tedgordon5381]

Thanks for your videos. I really enjoy them, particularly the “can you spot the fossils” scenes.

[@ElysetheEevee]

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.

there is something so satisfying with the word nodule i don't know is its just the Geologist in me or what lol. One of the best memories i have was when my stepdad took me to Lyme Regious one Saturday morning we didn't get back til Monday evening ended up buying a tent an everything late Saturday afternoon and in his wise words 'well we've got a tent an all the kit we may as well get the use out of it now' He was known for just doing things on a whim so we just rolled with it found some cool stuff but ive lost them all in the 25yrs since unfortunately

[@george5590]

2 sets of nice ammonite bookends from those those round cobbles ( bookends for those who still read books~).That fossil of fish scales is a superb specimen. 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.

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.
