Pulled This Beautiful Ancient Piece Out Of The Mud While Shelling On an Island will surprise you

[@sherrie545]

I enjoy finding both seashells and old fossils. Where there is water there are both to be found. Thanks for taking us along on another adventure!

[@inletboy]

Thanks for watching! Cant wait till September to go to some cool new spots. Thanks again

[@thishandleisntavailableplease]

Very cool fossil

[@inletboy]

It was...never know what you're going to find on the beach.

Good beach morning! How did you get out of the mud? Don't you keep sinking? The whale skull was interesting to see...never know what you will find!

[@inletboy]

It was easy to get out of the mud for me and tried not to get my camera dirty and also not to loose my water shoes. I try to keep myself in good shape and that helps too. Thanks

Did your mud bath revitalize your skin? 😂 I wonder how old that skull is. Would be really interesting to know. You are a wealth of knowledge! I learn a lot from you. Thanks for the great day!

​​@user-kf7sp2qy4b most Whale bones in SC are found from the Miocene age. This is likely an extinct kind of Baleen whale. It could be anywhere from 5-23 million years old.

Looks like oil but I dont see how it would get there maybe you should take some of it and have someone look at yet

[@inletboy]

That's a good idea. Will see if is still there next time I go there.

[@freedomwanderer91]

That pluff mud is gross and stinky.....lol. Glad you survived.

[@inletboy]

Yep.. plug mud. It comes off in the wash. I am used to it. I always promise myself that I won't get dirty but dirty cloth happens all the time. :)

[@userrobinmp]

why does that mud look like black mucky oil? is sand suppose to be that black? You got some on your white shorts so I guess you will know if its oil if you use oxy clean and bleach and it doesnt come out. Also how can you be finding so much amber there? amber comes from sap of trees....odd must be super old. Wow, neat finding whale vertebra and skull
