Would you rather stub your toe on a house sized Lego or share this video?

[@triple_A_rockhound]

😂

[@SpudEngineering]

Stub my toe

[@mountianmike5588]

Congrats chris on the savory chunky 🐒 gold!!!! My guess was 5.5 grams. Next time dont forget the sweat pants and hand dredge! 🎉

[@markfryer9880]

​@mountianmike5588 He had the hand dredge, we call them yabby pumps, with him. Surprised that he didn't use it?

[@markfryer9880]

I really don't want to stub my toe on a house sized block of Lego. That would hurt too much! I don't really have anyone else that I can share this video with. 😢 Give Miss Fern lots of pats and cuddles from her 'Uncle Mark'. 😊 Mark from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺

[@SkateSoup]

99 buckets from Bruce's were done, 99 buckets were done. He dug in the ground, and swirled the last round, the challenge of 100 buckets is done! Congrats man, hard work pays off with great rewards, and we've enjoyed the hell out of the ride. Can't wait to see the big weigh up!

[@BenWoning]

Makes me happy to hear the happiness in your voice when you have days like this Chris. Nearly brings a tear to the eye to see your efforts and struggles pay off.

[@Triggerchown]

Hard work persistence perseverance, sweat blood, and tears. Well done, mate. Pure gold

[@garryhill4494]

Congratulations, Chris, finally finishing your 100 bucket 🪣 challenge . 😊

[@meganmeherbanigilbert9762]

What a fabulous finish for the 100 bucket challenge. Well done

[@susanturcotte3176]

Unbelievable! 🧐😮 Chris, not only did you find fantastic gold, but it was wonderful hearing you laugh heartely while doing it! An extremely successful day doesn't come along like that very often, either. As you have shown so many times, your area doesn't have coarse, thick, gold. I was so happy for you my friend! 🤩 By the way, I'm so glad that you weighed out well over my guess of 4 grams! 😳😎 I also appreciate you showing how to use a Bataya pan again. Many people do not know how to use it or how well it catches gold. There was proof in the pudding, once again. Thanks for sharing this adventure with us and I hope your pans and buckets are loaded for the next round! Blessings from Alabama ❤️

[@omgcharcoal5629]

you're literally my favorite content creator on youtube. never stop making videos for the gold-bugged masses :D

[@VoGusProspecting]

Thanks, will do!

[@joannagrimmer]

This one's a hard one to beat, Chris. Congratulations on the Bucket Ton. What an awesome finale...😊

[@gmm5550]

Seen ladys use those traditional wooden pans in rural Lao Vietnam and Cambodia . The men digs and carries buckets to the woman that pans out and they are like wizards with those pans its like a dance and pretty hypnotic to watch.

[@Ironsja11]

Great job man! My favorite thing is sitting on a folding chair in the creek feeding a sluice box.

[@ssnerd583]

Bloody hell, Chris!!! I'm so happy for you in so many ways about all this!! I hope you can go back and get ounces out of that spot as you deserve it for all your hard work!

[@Advil1024]

GOLDS!! Found my first shotgun pellet and a couple tiny flakes this weekend. I have learned so much from watching your channel. I can't wait to see the cleanup and final weight from the 100 bucket challenge!

[@LisaHayes-yj4tp]

That's worth celebrating! Congrats on completing the 100 bucket challenge and finding Bonanza City V2. How frickin' awesome!

[@VoGusProspecting]

Thanks a bunch! Certainly was a hard challenge

[@secretstreamsandfeverdreams]

I so badly want to be in the bush on the creek... Been more than two years now. I work week on/ week off FIFO, am a single dad on my week off work to two wonderful young kids, I just haven't had even one hour by myself when I'm not at work to be able to get to the creek. My soul hurts, I so badly need to hear the creek sing

[@davidhandyman7571]

Impressive! Thanks for taking us along Chris.

[@tommelvin6016]

Well done mate. Be proud!

[@user-hp2um3jb3i]

It's good to see you finding so much good gold, and to see you really enjoying yourself.

[@jacobkotter8693]

I love that you are constantly breaking your records. You are constantly learning and improving and finding more ways to master a craft that has no skill ceiling.

[@scottowens1535]

Hey you... A Owen's here. Never had the stars align. Enjoy learning. Ohh forgot to salute Bruce!!!

[@MadMarlin1964]

Pickery Bits… seems like that should be on some kind of merch. Gratz on a great day.

[@MrJayrodge]

Wow! Congratulations man! Now get up, put both arms up and chant "yes, yes, I'm the man!" This was a great series!

[@OzkAltBldgCo-bv8tt]

When your buckets are stuck together like that if you can grab one of the metal handles and turn it to the left and take the other handle and turn it to the right you can sometimes get them spinning enough that they'll separate.

[@xmj6830]

Finally! Gold!!!🤩

[@juju-xx5xn]

Wow!! That is awesome gold there Chris!! Congratulations!

[@perrylander]

I have followed u for years. I still miss Grissley. I will be sure to like you every time from now, me like u'r way of doingit! You an Dan Hurdy. And Buck!

[@2HighNoon]

That was fun, thanks Chris. 🏆✌️

[@gabivalla6279]

New Holland Honeyeater, supervisor. Beautiful, course gold, Chris. Glee shared for finding this resource, and nearer home. "By the river of Fabulon, where you camp-chair sat down, there ye wailed, when you remembered flour gold, yeah yeah, yeah." Boney Erm... (Boney M got their name from the Australian TV series, "Boney", popular in West Germany, and the late, great Frank Farian, who voiced the Grammy Award winning and handed back Milli Vanilli. Or as TISM had it, "Don't want no fifties rockabilly, I want Milli Vanilli!" Lillee, Caught Dilley, Bowled Milli Vanilli.

[@stanleywiggins5047]

A tip to make it easier to separate your buckets, drill a half inch hole just below the big lip of the bucket, that will allow the air to get in so they separate easier 😊

[@stephenweihrauch5252]

Utube is flocked. I get notifications from channels I saw 1 video of. I wait for these videos and some of my favorite channels like Gadze. Get the notifications a day or two later. What gives? I chanced upon this video.

[@markfryer9880]

Ah the mysterious world of KZbin, where common sense and logic play no part in the goings on! 😮 You will just have to ride the course and take your chances my friend. 😊 Mark from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺

[@katreyu2967]

Same I was unsubscribed 😂😅

[@guillermodelnoche]

Gently spin the bucket back and forth… very gentle and it will break the vacuum. Awesome gold Chris!

[@PowRKord]

Chris: If you drill a hole a bit below the lip every 120 degrees and put a grommet in each of the three, when you stack the buckets they can't vacuum lock together. And congrats on completing the 100 bucket challenge, ^5!

[@audigga4396]

Well done Chris, all that hard work payed off nicely!!

[@danhodgins4015]

Amazing stuff Chris! Glad to see you back on the creek at least some of the time.

[@leonacrowley164]

Awesome job Chris you deserve a great spot. Looks like a good spot.

[@troybaack1]

It's been so much fun watching the journey. Keep it up Chris

[@mouldytbags]

Unreal. I feel your joy from the comfort of my sofa.nice 1

[@kimmitchell5635]

Wow Chris 😮 I need to come to your creeks 😂 Congratulations Give Fern a pat for me

[@patrickmay4489]

I really enjoyed the challenge. Thanks Chris

[@Hawkeye2001]

One of my favorite videos. Amazing what you've found so close to a highway. I love your enthusiasm.

[@hungryprospectors9260]

Amazing. Great day Chris! Fun, entertaining challenge with a glorious finish. Cheers to you, nice work! 😉💪✌️ Really looking forward to the 100 bucket gold grand total.

[@debbiebradley4893]

Love watching you work, I find it gratifying, and love the video's

[@stevenstrempke8883]

Can’t wait for the finale!

[@stephenpublicover8818]

Hey Chris, Wow Mate, you found the mother load!! All kinds of GOLD!! Hello from Nova Scotia, Canada, Great video!

[@grahamhoughton8783]

Fantastic effort! Surely you smashed paulys weigh-in for the 100 bucket challenge.

[@mikealexander4518]

Outstanding day. You skills and tips are the best.

[@Scott-g1g]

Hello my name is Scott and I have just started panning and detecting, so what’s the first thing you do research and watch you tube. Your show came up first so I started watching. You have a great show and your knowledge on all aspects of the field is not only impressive but also inspiring. All the other ones I have watch are not as interesting nor informative. Well done. I appreciate your help effort and insight in this field. But your inspiration is amazing. Thank you

[@nevillegriffiths8681]

Awesome day out mate - congrats on all your effort with the 100 bucket challenge.

[@wyldman82901]

your channel has become my go to, i always look for new videos on your channel before any other content , i enjoy seeing all the different gear and methods you use to find the shiny goodness , and seeing real excitement and your passion for the hobby makes it even better , keep the amazing videos coming and give fern a scratch

[@LanaLaughsRealLoud]

Chris, you're channel is educating and very entertaining at the same time. I love it c❤😊

[@user-zy6jc6ge8w]

Great video lots of bigger bits than all your others. Truly enjoy them . I watch them everyday when I get back from the gold claim over here in USA . NORTHERN CALIFORNIA

[@jw-adventure6002]

Hi Chris, I came across a few videos of people using manual hand pumps modified with 1 way valves, like the Gold-N-Sand hand pump. but instead of running them to a bucket like the gold-n-sand does, they run the rigid hose to a high banker or river sluice. It would be interesting, as long as its legal in Australia, to see how much material you could run with one of these manual hand dredge, connected to a highbanker/sluice.

[@chriscarley9951]

Absolutely beautiful. You're a lucky man

[@MorningStarmama13]

❤your channel! Just found you. Could watch all day. 😊

[@caseyhill2816]

Well and truely a top effort Chris!!

[@EastBayFlipper]

I'm glad to see you having too much fun in the creek 😂👍

[@Miciaih]

THE RETURN OF THE BETEA! I am so excited to see her return! much love :)

[@janellevoigt5481]

I always enjoy your videos Chris. You have taught me alot and though I don't live real close to a gold producing area, I am going to learn how to pan! Thanks!!

[@TheCoffeeBushKid]

Well done Chris. Awesome spot you got onto there. Good luck with the clean up 😁👍

[@fredrichardson9761]

After watching your channel for a long time, this was amazing to see. An unheard of amount of gold from a single day of panning. And I'm really not used to seeing anything bigger than those tiny specs of flour gold on this channel! Great video and an awesome day!

[@VoGusProspecting]

Hope you've seen the last 5 videos, it's all course and chunky.

[@fredrichardson9761]

@@VoGusProspecting I will have to go back and check them out - thanks!!!

[@dragonhill3130]

Damn boy that's some nice chucks Can't wait for the final weigh on the 100 bucket challenge

[@christianmittasch8972]

It's the perfect spot. Good work.

[@nevadadan5937]

Congrats Chris!

[@paulknight1879]

Another AMAZING video!! 🙌👏🫡

[@garynagle5654]

I really enjoyed watching this video, thanks for doing what you do best mate

[@josephhaworth461]

I salute you Bruce and Chris I'm guessing y'all are going to get about 1.02 ounces of gold at the final weigh in for the 100 bucket challenge

[@JaySchmitty]

Ahhh this was a fun video! Love your channel ! You and my other favorite KZbin gold prospector should collaborate, Klesh! Also going to check out your paydirt right now! Much love from Denver, co !

[@desertriderukverun1002]

Good things happen to good people, glad to see you had a great day Chris. Too bad you can’t bring a 4’ dredge to Hoover up that creek

[@mocaman99]

Nice one Chris! Cheers for the vid :)

[@craigsiddle5871]

Thats an awesome day panning. Well done mate

[@nathanvanlieshout7834]

I know ive said it a few times, but this 100 bucket challenge has been amazing Chris! Thats for all the hard work! Cant wait for the big weigh in!

[@KenzosGoldProspecting]

Congratulations on your find Chris. Well done. A tip to stop your buckets sticking together. I drill a dozen large holes in each bucket. They never stick.

[@joecolosi1795]

Love your content Mr. Chris

[@mattseivert309]

Keep it up your content is always enjoyable

[@Stampoable]

I never thought the otago goldfeilds of nz circa 1860- were so rich, as to my mind there were worked out so quickly and consistanly. I was suprised to find one lucky digger got 4.5 onces in one pan, think of that day, Love your stuff Chris! :)

[@user-friendlyhuman]

CEO of Bruce & Sons. is a legend ❤

[@MrTimNed]

Congrats. Let's see the total next.

[@Uriel_222]

Wow! Awesome day bud ! Can’t wait to see the total on the challenge. Hoping your pans continue to be heavy 😊. Oh and yes I had to look for the video , as KZbin had unsubscribed me without asking , but I’m back 😂

[@wimmeraparanormal6581]

De-suction buckets by dunking them in water and tug at opposing spots on the rim. Takes only 3-4 tugs to separate. Been doing it that way for over 40 years. Never fails.....

[@tommynoel9929]

Thanks Chris! Freakin awesome!

[@Phils-kv1ok]

Another great video mate thanks Chris

[@jeffhays1968]

No force in nature is stronger than what holds a stack of buckets together

Nice spot Chris, best you go celebrate with a Whiskey😂👍👌 Cheers for another great episode.👍

[@VoGusProspecting]

Thanks mate! Whisky is on you

[@kentuckyprepper8488]

Love what you’re doing If I lived someplace that had gold like this I wouldn’t ever leave the creek but that why I don’t lol

[@NovoGold]

Nice outcome Chris, seriously a huge effort overall mate. Get yourself a couple of Dares or a Whisssskey on me. Cheers
