We Found Poison... and a SKULL While Exploring an Early 1900's Treasure Trove! Georgia Bottle Hunt

In this video I teamed up with my Dad for a fun adventure searching for antique treasures from the turn of the century! We went looking for an old bottle dump in a Georgia town founded in the late 1800's and ended up finding some interesting treasures!

That tiny blue Milk o'Mag bottle was really cool, and so was the amber poison bottle! So glad you've found a new honey hole for bottles. Hope you find lots more bottles there, and thanks for taking us along again. :)

[@mandyseay8062]

The plant lover in me wants you to bring them all home for propagation bottles. Also the last medicine bottle is from my hometown, St. Louis!

[@lori8553]

Thanks for crawling around in the bamboo swamp to bring us with y’all on your adventure. 😎 stuff bottle Bro.

[@valiantwarrior4517]

Love that amber poison bottle. Man…now I really want some grape soda. Hiya, Mr Sir Wild Kyle’s Dad!

[@TygerBleuToo]

As someone who works in branding I’m always impressed by just how old many brands are. Occasionally, even the shape of the containers hasn’t changed much.

[@lori8553]

I too am in advertising. Signs to be more to the point. I started in the trade back before the cutters and digital. Everything I worked on was painted by hand and some silk screening. I love the older stuff just because of the skill. Back then layout and design was KING. I’m not knocking the technology however anyone can get into reproducing simple graphics and signs. But without putting the effort into a eye pleasing design there are a lot of how should I say not the best work I’ve ever seen. So I had to comment to you because I know you know what I am talking about. I don’t know what it is you do but I appreciate what input you shared. 🧑🏻‍🎨

[@barbymccain2436]

You need to show us your bottles after they’re all cleaned up 😁Maybe go over your collection? 🥰

[@kathieruiz5157]

You could take a big bucket with you for the broken glass and make it into smaller pieces and tumble them into smooth pieces to be used as jewelry or mosaic art! Or even in a cool jar for decoration!

[@WILDKYLE]

Gonna have to get a tumbler and try that one day!

[@donnaparker3748]

Great finds!!!! The deer skull and antlers will be nice once cleaned and bleached!!!

[@seashoremudlark3916]

Luv it when the goods are on / near the surface...looks like you had fun. Happy hunting

[@heathermcarthur5231]

Kyle every bottle you find it makes me so jealous! Be careful out there. 🍶🍶

[@deleneblattler6360]

From watching mudlarking in England videos I see that some of those people make things out of the bottles with broken tops. They use a bottle cutter to take the broken tops off and use the bottom part of the bottles for pen/pencil holders. I've also seen some of them cut off just the bottoms of the bottles and use them to make bottle windows or inset them in wood to make a sun catcher. I know you are doing craft projects with the blue/white porcelain pieces you find. Maybe you should invest in a bottle cutter. I bet you could make some beautiful things.

[@tarrasams7423]

Greetings from New York I want to wish you and you're family a Happy Healthy and Blessed 🙌 New Year 🙏🎉🥳🎊🎉🥳🎊🎉🥳🎊🍾🥂

[@katiedid713926]

I enjoyed this video. You seemed so relaxed. Love your excitement when you find something

[@mirkatu3249]

You found some great bottles! And you look happy and healthy! :-)

[@jennywalborn7769]

The poison bottles are my fav! I scored 2 from a goodwill store lol taped together for $1.99! Love the deer skull, great find. I collect antler sheds too, cant wait for searching time!

[@kerinholmstrom250]

I wonder if Bree will try and talk you out of that deer skull? Great hunt! 😁🇨🇦♥️🇨🇦

[@WILDKYLE]

Dad kept it :)

[@ineedanewname9595944]

Always bring a bag!! Duh!!💜💜💜

[@janetpullen5210]

Many cool bottles. Lots of fun finding the old ones

[@jjmiller1974]

A lot of nice finds. I found a Dr. Miles bottle a few months ago and it's my favorite med, so far.

[@kimcrawford5247]

I just love this stuff! I do wish I could still do it . Walked a lot of rock walls and old dumps back in the day…even now when I walk outside my instinct is to look down and search…enjoy this Kyle and even better with your dad! 😎

[@sandmaker]

A deer head, a trip with dad, a great poison bottle and the ancestor of duck man and the shoe of one of his victims. Now who could ask for more... well a bunch of embossed bottked. I like the long twist the best. Happy new year and happy hunting. 😷⚒

[@jamesskorupa8694]

I have an idea for places like your last video. A pitchfork for throwing straw. It has thin prongs so you can probe five holes at a time. Or good for turning earth for shallow digging.

[@coachkevinwilson1958]

The swamp children and swamp children poo! Ah man, you always crack me up in your vids. Cool finds!

[@sharimullinax3206]

Really cool hunt! Lots of fun seeing this in the states.

[@juliettebec9027]

It would be nice to see how some of the bottles you found look after you clean them out

[@RodgerW6]

Kyle! What great videos! I hope you are selling some of them!

[@cynthiaswearingen1037]

You know I'm loving these bottle vids, Kyle! Awesome poison and tons of embossed bottles! Like a lot of older dumps, that one may be actually a surface dump. Love the European mount antlers, ready to hang up! Great vid, Kyle!💖

[@Sirshackleton]

Rake it gently. But you will end up digging too. As far as screw tops I heard Brandon say on the video he posted today that a screw top doesn’t necessarily mean the bottle isn’t old, I was surprised to hear that. It’s really cool that you had your dad with you!❤️

[@gracemccoy1970]

You're hurting my eyeballs being out of focus all the time. But I do love seeing old bottles! Happy New Year Kyle

[@leonragsdale7439]

Good bottles there!! You should keep going back kyle, heck yeah!✌😁

[@MatthewBaran]

Yer a bottle king Kyle!

[@kimconley4679]

Great finds.

[@storytimewithunclebill1998]

That deer skull was pretty cool and a big one. Bunch of really nice bottles. Awesome you can bring them to us. Never seen them before. Was fun to watch. Great video

[@WILDKYLE]

Thanks for watching Bill! Glad you enjoyed it. The deer skull was a very unexpected find!

[@silverlady1118]

Fantastic deer skull, some interesting bottles too Enjoyable video as always ☺ 👍

[@WILDKYLE]

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@lolajo2850]

Would have loved to see the bottles after they were all clean. Thanks for another great adventure. 💚

[@thedmvhistorian8964]

Dude that’s awesome! Great poison bottle. I’m still looking for one, but your bottling vids are what got me inspired to start bottle collecting in addition to fossils! Hope your having a happy new year.

[@WILDKYLE]

Oh man I'm happy to hear that my videos have helped inspire you! Happy New Year to you as well :)

[@rebeccagoldberg8333]

Bottle hunting with your dad had to be cool! Wish you’d show the cleaned up bottles!

[@patscnr]

Good job on finding your long lost grandfather Duckman. Lol!

[@susanhenke8441]

I would go back sell some old poison bottles, awsome.

[@cheaplaughkennedy2318]

Awesome finds 👍👌

[@sleighridefishing9027]

Sounds like some crazy finds!!! I can't wait to watch!!!

Definitely was a fun time!

Loved the poison and deer skull enjoyed watching

[@divingwithmicheleinvirgini7957]

Love the deer head and all the cool bottles. I also have to deal with all those thorny vines here in VA They are a pain in the ass.

[@catherinewilliams3850]

Love your videos, Ihjave always been facinated by unusually shaped and coloured bottles ever since I was a kid. Maybe one day I'll get a chance to go bottle digging.

[@DavidJones-smiley]

Wild man love your videos . Calm and laid back!

[@TheDrummergirl33]

Haha I was gonna say where are the swamp children? Lol miss you bud

[@karenmurphy7066]

Hi Kyle, Kyle's Dad and 8 point deer skull antlers! Nice to see you and your Dad on adventure and good to see your embossed bottles too! Thanks for the tag along video; I enjoyed it!

Congratulations on the amazing video you uploaded and shared it with us!! Have a nice time!!

Glad you enjoyed it my friend! Thank you!

Man Alive. I would love to find some Awesome bottles like that Thank You.

If you ever do some merch... a Duckman shirt and a Beware The Swamp Children shirt would be great

[@WILDKYLE]

Yes! Both great ideas :)

[@justjulee9135]

This was a great video! I love when you go bottle hunting/digging! You are preserving history one bottle at a time!

[@avahines9578]

Cool vid! That was such a great deer skull, very neat!!

[@suzysmith6002]

I am from the kansas city missouri area and i was so excited for the kcmo find! I looked it up and lucky tiger was a hair growth tonic!

[@bonesstones6584]

Great finds dude, I love that embossed flask! A couple thoughts regarding searching that site, I've noticed that the point furthest back from a dump site typically holds the oldest material (bottles, etc). Also, look around for any depressions or low spots in the ground, these could indicate a hole which was dug to contain trash and was subsequently filled in. I found a low area while hunting on the Maryland eastern shore. The depression had lots of old rusty cans and broken bottles strewn about so I dug a test hole in the middle. After removing lots'o crap I hit paydirt, so to speak. Good luck!

[@beckieg8479]

Another banger vid Kyle, i would rake the surface see what's there and all mixed up, and then maybe see what is in the little hills 😉👍❤️

[@gracewashburn8276]

Oh my goodness an ancestor of the duck man oh Kyle is he just a scary as the duck man scarier

[@derekquintal]

Hey man, I have a dump up North, I used to find a ton of bottles from the 1850s to about 1914. The poison bottle has ridges on the corners in case you were illiterate or blind you knew it was poisonous. The one poison bottle that you do want to find is a cobalt blue in the shape of a human skull, that one is worth quite alot, you would be occupied for a whole decade around my area. I'm just getting a little to old to be out there digging anymore. I dug there for about 12 years.

[@robbybobby6483]

Your Dad is amazing. I knew you would find stuff when I saw he was there. I dubbed him the Bottle Bloodhound! Buck head is always a good score. That Moultrie coke is rated S+ in Bill Porters Coke bottle check list. That is one of the nu-grapes that had the embossed grapes, they were ordered to remove. Good stuff you two! I first rake the leaf debris off. Probe where you can see things on the surface.if things are just under the surface i push the probe at a sharp angle just under surface of the grounds to locate near surface things.

[@threeriversknifeworks4283]

Keep up the good work

[@patifagan6774]

Good job.

[@lynnstanton7018]

Lucky tiger was a hair growth tonic

[@cptnkaos5994]

Amazing finds, as all ways Kyle

[@vivid23d53]

Hello Kyle did you ever show a video of your bottle collection? If so could you send the link. They are all so interesting and Beautiful thanks vivian

[@gwynnfarrell1856]

Yay! Another great bottle adventure! Looks like you got the technique for that particular area figured out. Maybe a machete should be included in your tool kit? Those were some nasty looking vines. (A while back I was watching a Brazilian rockhound who used a machete to get through the vegetation AND dig rocks! 😆) Thanks for a fun time and I hope that wasn't poison ivy!

[@WILDKYLE]

No rash so I think I'm safe with the poison ivy haha!

[@dustinfindsrocks]

Those poison bottles are freaking cool 👍🏼

[@thegeorgiacreekwalker491]

My buddy and I found a decent 8 point dead head looking for arrowhead’s over the summer and I boiled it, bleached it and mounted it on a arrowhead plaque I have, it turned out pretty good I think for my first attempt, found a beaver skull and a goat skull out in the woods as well, unfortunately the goat skull no longer had it’s horns, not sure what it was doing out in the woods, people suggested satanic rituals lol, idk but I like collecting skulls and displaying them with my arrowheads, I enjoy and appreciate you scavenge for a variety of artifacts, I live in North Georgia and recently watched your fossil collecting video from up here, I’d like to know that location, Thanks For Sharing, Happy New Year, GL&HH 👊🏹

[@thegeorgiacreekwalker491]

I didn’t make that comment to get you to reveal the location btw Kyle, I got a good idea of where y’all were but if you’re ever in north Georgia again I wouldn’t mind tagging along lol and I can probably put you on a arrowhead while you’re here, GL&HH 👊🏹

[@oldwoodentrunkadventures]

Man you hit the honey hole. Tons of cool bottles in that spot. I’d be going back there every day for a while. Definitely a dump probably right where you wanted to dig. Probably floods and moves stuff all over.

[@maryoneill5070]

You’ve been busy. That’s great I love all your finds. As usual. I see a video I missed so I’m going to watch not. ✌🏻❤️🙂🙏

[@debihalsey2247]

Cool finds! Great video!

[@ghostravenXX]

Good scouting trip . I would use a small four pronged rake ( the kind Brandon uses to pull bottles from the deep holes) to scratch the surface and a potato fork for probing and prying out the deeper ones . Thx for sharing

[@markattardo]

Cool stuff!

[@graemero5532]

Cheers Kyle, great video

loved the vid🔥❤

[@WILDKYLE]

Thank you!

[@cherriblossom1319]

Fun finds!! But how are there so many bottles in that area? Why didn't they recycle them instead of dumping? Was it the way of the 1900s lol and intentionally leaving it for centuries for Kyle!!

[@Canned_beef]

Great finds like always. Why do you not take bottles from the 40s plus? They might be common now. But what about 20 years from now?

[@WILDKYLE]

I only have so much room for now 😂😂

My vote is dig through the mount first, then check out other areas.

When u run room too cary bottles use pockets and hat too cary there's always a way lol maybe

[@dustinfindsrocks]

I’m always so late to videos but I’ll leave a rambling comment 😂 You really have me wanting to check around Potosi and see if I can find some old stuff. I drive past a driveway near there with a sign that says “I collect old bottles. Will pay $” 🤔 I might have to stop and talk to that guy sometime. Also I’m sure my friend Adam who lives there and is a history FANATIC would have some ideas. I dunno… I still need to get up north for geodes first. Some amazing treasure out there! Love your videos dude 👍🏼

I know where you could find a lot of those bottles but it's in some one's backyard

[@robertsalmi6472]

Why not keep all the old salad dressing bottles and reuse with the original recipes of the salad dressing! You find enough of the bottles to fill a supermarket shell! Just one of my get rich quick schemes!

[@Objective-Observer]

To my knowledge, the US does not have any 'mudlarking' or bottle digging restrictions... other than, digging on private property. The British Bottle diggers go at a dump with shovels and gusto... and it drives me nuts. For soft soils, I would use a rake; for deep solid dirt, you'll need a shovel...but your rod seems the better tool to me.

[@DavidJones-smiley]

Think you need a bigger bag or box!

[@lisamatthews2986]

My motto is. If you don't know if you're allowed to dig... It's better to beg for forgiveness than to ask for permission.
