Oh Shawn, the gratefulness that gentleman expressed was well worth it. When you 1st found the ring and he came out to you he was speechless. What a rewarding job you are able to do. This is my fav vlog so far of yours...toxic water and all.💙

[@DetectFlorida]

Thank you!!!! :)

[@nicshaleeno]

Don't feel bad about taking the money your worth it, you just saved that man thousands another great job!

[@DetectFlorida]

Thank you!

[@timhunt9435]

Shawn, your channel is becoming one of my favorites. You use your detector to brighten the days of people who've lost hope. As a fellow detectorist, I commend you for your kindness and unwillingness to take advantage of the situation, like so many others who are driven by greed and selfishness would seek to do. Well done, sir.

[@DetectFlorida]

Thanks so much, Tim!! It brings me a lot of joy to be able to help them out when they're feeling so down about losing something important to them

[@marcialuskmaxwell6167]

I love how you say “we” did it again, when you’re doing all the work, Shawn!

[@didisalyers4460]

Just amazing that you found that so fast. And I can’t believe so many folks are in the water.

[@DetectFlorida]

I don't know if they are unaware, or just don't care. Either way, I couldn't wait to get out and take a proper shower!!!

[@DuneFreak66]

The lady on the beach is correct! You are making magic!! Well done, Shawn!

[@DetectFlorida]

Thank you!!!

[@donnaevans9625]

Hello from Uk. New subscriber here. Only found your channel yesterday and I have been catching up on your fantastic videos. What you do is wonderful and brings a tear or two to my eyes.

[@marloncausey392]

He is great 👍 I think he should have a million followers

[@DetectFlorida]

Thank you so much!!!

[@MrJking065]

The ring is priceless to the man. And he made you take money as he should have. You saved a priceless family heirloom that will be in the family for many generations.

[@paulahawes8694]

Short but so sweet. Thank you for what you do for these people.

[@davetevens5080]

Well done Shawn. You certainly know how to make people happy 😊😊😊😊😊

[@rozcrowden6629]

Shawn you are the absolute bloody best, mate. After all these years I still get excited when I get a notification for your videos. Glad you were out of the poop water quickly 😂😂 and I hope you weren’t affected too much by the floods 🇦🇺

[@DetectFlorida]

Thank you so much, Roz!!! Thankfully, the flooding didn't affect me or my family too much. Some neighborhoods nearby were totally underwater. It was very sad to see!

[@jofleury2982]

You are a great man!!!! There needs to be more people like you!!

[@DetectFlorida]

Thank you!

[@pamelacook7334]

Shawn, you’re a true HERO!! You could tell how grateful the gentleman was! Gave me goose bumps!God bless you and your huge heart!

[@DetectFlorida]

Thank you so much, Pamela!!!! 😊

[@TheLug_]

I’m so glad he forced you to take a few bucks. I love that you don’t charge. But when someone wants to give you a little it covers gas and lunch. Never asking is amazing but when they force it take it grab a burger and put some gas in the truck!!

[@DetectFlorida]

Haha, I totally understand that some want to show their appreciation in that way. Its never required, but always appreciated!

[@surfstarcc1]

That's a cool looking ring, another win for the good guys! 👍

[@davesoucier5531]

Another outstanding recovery, poop water and all! 🤣

Gotta add, that little child float at the end is adorable.

It was a miracle! hahaha

[@lisawhite9791]

Awesome find! Your channel is one of my favourites! The world needs more honest and kind people like you Shawn! Bravo! Watching from Canada!

[@candytlew77]

Shawn, you are an amazing person. Not only do you try so hard to help return things to the owner, but you do it with no expectation of reward. (Other than the wonderful feeling of a job well done.). You have been a Godsend to so many people. I LOVE your channel and your videos. God bless you!!!

[@janegardiner8816]

[@TrashNTreasureDetecting]

Great job Shawn 👏 ❤ I just did a ring recovery , was posted all over facebook. I got lucky I was there first. Woke up at 4 am but I wasn't gonna chance it not getting back to the family. Was an 1800s ring passed down for generations.

[@DetectFlorida]

Great job!!!!

[@jacintagetson8498]

I love your videos and what you do. I can't wait for Sunday morning to come so I can watch your newest video. I wish you could post daily 😊

[@DetectFlorida]

Thank you!!! Once this water clears up, I hope to be putting content out more frequently :)

[@RingsAndThings.]

Excellent work. Gridding in the water can be very challenging!

[@graygray3140]

Shawn every time I watch your channel I stand in awe of your commitment in returning lost valuables to disparaged loved ones. Your firm stance when it comes to accepting cash is rare and not seen often in todays selfish world. I always wondered if your religious at all or just really are in it to see people smile.

[@DetectFlorida]

Thank you so much. I’m not very religious to be completely honest with you. I just try to live my life in a positive way, and help others whenever I can :)

[@mariontheantiquarian7849]

Great job… I love the recoveries. I was worried about you & how you & your dad/family fared with Debby… glad to see you out & about afterwards.

[@DetectFlorida]

Thank you! Thankfully, the flooding didn't affect us much. We were very fortunate!!

Bravo Sir! Bravo!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 We so enjoy your integrity, and also your sweet ability to make others NOT feel like a ding-dong for having worn a pricey piece of jewelry to the beach! Good on ya!! ❤

[@princessmom717]

Shawn, you are amazing at what you do! As much as I love watching your channel I hope I never have to contact you for a lost piece of jewelry. I can't believe they let people swim knowing how toxic it is.

[@self-preservationsociety7057]

Another great recovery, I know you’re not in it for the money but I do like to see you get some ‘ expenses covered ‘ Kudos to the ring guy

[@kkamas1]

Good job Shawn!! Making magic all over the place. Congrats on another spectacular ring find and some very very happy people :)

[@CarolFelts-g9b]

Just started watching your channel and I have subscribed, I love it! It’s so wonderful that you find these peoples items and return them for no charge. I lost my engagement ring 48 years ago at the edge of the lake, we went back to look for it and a guy found it and was very glad we came back. I discribed it perfectly and he said is this it and yes it was. I was so happy. I’m glad you make all these people feel better.

[@wildliferules5986]

Hey Shawn are you sure that isn't poop water they pump up to shower off with? The guy was so grateful for the return of the ring. You are the man.

Great recovery Shawn! Its great when they can meet you and put you in the right place. Well done!

[@DetectFlorida]

Another job well done. Awesome job with not getting any Freakin Pull Tabs!! LOL Keep the videos coming.

[@mommycontent]

A couple weeks ago my family and I went to a beach we always go to it’s a nice snorkeling beach in the intercoastal but gets the nice ocean water coming in. There was a message on the chalkboard saying no swimming high bacteria levels and there were still people swimming. I don’t think they paid attention. We left and went to a nearby ocean beach because with a 2 year old I never want to take him into water if it’s not safe!! Those people are crazzzzy must not know. GREAT JOB!!

[@jameshabovick8949]

You are the man, congrats on all your finds, Fireman Jim

[@jimthewhale]

I was at work when I saw the post but I ended up hitting the beach at sunset after you. No ring ofc but you missed four pairs of sunglasses! The beach had been hit super hard after Debby. Happy hunting 😎 and awesome that you got to return it!

[@shawnmariemann]

I would have brough ten gallons of fresh water for an immediate rinse. Ew. Great job!

[@bigmaclooiee2]

Your channel/videos are always a great way to decompress after a stressful day in healthcare. I know you don't typically accept tips/payment but I hope you start to as this video should show you the magic you provide to people. Like my grandpa always told me, if you're exceptional at something, never do it for free. Best of luck with the channel and your business. You've sparked a huge interest in detecting for many many people.

[@DetectFlorida]

Thank you so much! I enjoy it so much, that I couldn't possibly ask for anything. I have so many amazing stories that I get to tell, and that's payment enough for me :)

[@DiggingTimesPast]

Nice find! As always, way to go Shawn.

[@cassandrapua5970]

Love watching your videos❤

[@DetectFlorida]

Thank you!

[@gsp911]

I have started metal detecting and when I bought the equipment I thought I was going to find gold and get rich. After watching your videos, my biggest wish is to find a ring that I can return to the owner. That has to be the biggest reward.

[@DetectFlorida]

It really is!!!

[@JenniferEdwards-hf9pd]

I love watching your KZbin channel. It is so exciting to see people reunited with their lost jewelry. Just seeing the look on their face when you tell them that you found the item is priceless! You are such a precious man with a heart of gold. I'm a fan for life! Happy hunting!😊

It looks like your wish for a successful and short hunt was granted. Congrats on finding the gentleman's ring. Always fun to see the owners reaction when you hand them their ring. Even better to see the big smile on your face when the hunt comes to a successful conclusion. Your are truly a Good Samaritan.

[@DetectFlorida]

Thank you!!!

[@nancyeaton731]

I just read yesterday about the wastewater released into the Gulf. A lot of brackish water also is finally reaching the Gulf. It's definitely not a good time to go swimming. I'm sure we will start seeing warnings posted soon. Good job Shawn, from a viewer in the Venice area.

It so strange to see you on my home town beaches. I love what you do man. Stay safe! I grew up across the street from Palma Sola Bay (1977) and in 2003 a concrete sewer line was ruptured and patched up quickly as a storm approached and it was never repaired properly so they have been posting ECOLi hazards since. I grew up commercial fishing and I can’t believe how this happened. Thank you for mentioning this problem so maybe it will draw attention

[@DetectFlorida]

I hope so!! The treatment plant was built in the 1950's. The population here was only 35,000 people. Its now grown to 448,000 and we have the same infrastructure! Mind blowing!!!

Anyway, I have a shirt merchandise idea for you. “Freakin pull tab” 😂 maybe it’s already out there 🤷🏼‍♂️
