What Fossils Await in the Depths of this Florida River?! SCUBA Diving for Prehistoric Bones & Teeth!

[@ankers3681]

I’ve loved watching digging science, wild Kyle and paleo Chris and can’t believe they finally made it all in a video together.

[@DiggingScience]

This is my new FAVORITE KZbin Video.

[@Canned_beef]

Fossils are just rocks that used to have feelings.

[@WILDKYLE]

I don't know if this is hilarious or really sad to think about 😂

[@rockreader4298]

Love that, Garrett!

[@paleozofthelance5447]

There were so many fossil hunters there. I don't think I have ever seen that many Paleos in one place. Wild Kyle, the day I come to Florida to fossil himt, I want everyone in this episode that. You guy make me feel complete. Like I am not alone in this great big world. Keep posting videos and hunting MAN!

SO many happy scuba Kyle sounds

[@paleozofthelance5447]

[@WILDKYLE]

Thank you friend! Hahahaa it didn't work in my favor this time, but hopefully next time 😂

[@karynbrown7519]

[@RocksForBrains]

That little crayfish was like, ‘NO, my fossil, miiiiiine!’ 🤣

[@krawdadandrusty]

I really liked seeing you find the fossils (such a clear river) and how you identified them for us! That was very well done!

[@WILDKYLE]

Thank you! I am glad you enjoyed the video ☺️

[@hollybess2811]

What a fun time!! I love how much fun you all have!! Yay!! Gotta see more!!😁❤

[@lynnscott8286]

Bri has a very perceptive eye for things

[@rockreader4298]

Kyle, I'm not gonna lie. The fossils were Awesome, too many Cool ones to mention, but my favorite part of the vid, was the smart, fun and good looking guys doing the fossil huntin' and Bree, the only pretty, smart gal there. Oh and she just so happened to get the most fossils, one of which was my favorite .... that very nice alligator osteoderm. : )

[@alantack1735]

Loved the music! Made me think I was watching an epic 90's VHS of Bill Dance fishing. Lol

[@cynthiaswearingen1037]

So many different fossils! You guys have so much fun finding history, I love it!💖

[@mksemposki]

Awesome video!!! Loved seeing all the great fossils!!! No fangs yet but I’m sure you’ll find them yet!!! Great to see everyone!!!! 😊

[@WILDKYLE]

Yesssss we need some fangs!

[@lindaleehulsey3167]

HAPPY FOSSIL HUNTERS BEAUTIFUL GATHERING RIVER DAY.... 👍 FINDS 💋😘

[@christinewalley6829]

Another awesome video. The fossils were cool, but I have to say the owls were super cool. Thanks for sharing it. 🦉

[@WILDKYLE]

I LOVED seeing those owls. I agree it was just as cool as seeing the fossils!

[@TiffYG2133]

8:19 That game is called Knucklebones, also known as snobs, alleygobs, astragalus, tali, dibs, fivestones, jacks, jackstone or Frogs in the Well also from watching all these videos Bree has been in it's safe to say she's a batter fossil hunter than you guys, sorry not sorry! Girl Power!! lol

The moment at about 5:08 that you just burp lollll

[@KAZSANable]

Goodie all off ya. Good sound good vibes

[@kamoonrathewolfgod9189]

I would not know what to look for if I tried this. Everything looks black and it all looks just the same. Equally impressed that you can identify each piece. Always love watching your videos.

[@WILDKYLE]

It definitely takes a LOT of practice! We've been doing this for years so eventually it becomes second nature. ☺️

[@paleozofthelance5447]

Already sunscibed to Digging Science. Derek, you need a channel man.

[@TheFossilFiend]

Great vid! I really need to get my diving gear and gold dredge that way to find some great river fossils

[@H2oHazard]

How do you find these places id love to do this kind of diving but don't know where to start

[@jmparsons7331]

Google at the creeks and rivers in Bartow FL area, pretty much find something in any of them. Peace River fl, is famous for the fossil shark teeth. .at the state park ,you can rent canoes and sifting screens(maybe start here if possible, get an idea on what you'll need to go at it on your own) .watch Kelly Young yt vid fossil hunt on Peace River. Rules to know...1).get a fossil permit $5. to collect bone, don't need it for shells and shark teeth. Google FL fossil permit. 2). It's safe to scuba but not "free dive" or snorkle in some warmer rivers, "brain amoebas", have become an issue. Colder creeks and rivers don't seem to be as much of an issue....not reason to be scared, it's a very rare occurrence, just educate yourself a bit....same, on rare alligator attacks but do happen etc etc. 3) never go alone,BUT if not possible, then only do very, very shallow creeks, like 12 inches deep or less!. This should get you started. Oh I don't know where you are in Florida, but central FL in Ocala and Lakeland areas, and then River,creeks in Acadia areas. Also Sepulga River in Alabama, also know for fossils, its right on Florida state line. Most of the Rivers, lakes have places to rent kayak or canoes , just make sure they have a shuttle service to get you back to your vehicle, if not that's another reason you need 2 people. Oh,make sure you know when Alligator mating season starts, they pretty much leave people alone until then, so avoid rivers/lakes then....could possibly do shallow creeks at that time, still be cautious. Fyi, alot of old dirt roads in Florida, have alot of fossils, the state uses the limestone mines as fill dirt on these roads .And the limestone and phosphorus mines are full of fossils. If you can't get to a waterway, check out the white dirt roads.. And as always in Florida, keep eyes out for snakes.. Happy hunting 🦴🛶⛏🐊

[@billyjohnson6379]

Nice video there is a lot of fossils there,do you ever find arrowheads diving in rivers creeks etc.

[@SandMarcusJ]

Is that a fossilized cheerio that Paleo Chris found at 8:20

[@AgentG54]

I was just wondering if you were going to be hunting with digging science

[@randomconsumer4494]

YOU'RE a nookelskoot. GOTTEM!

[@ScottishGoldHunter]

Just came across your channel. Nice vid man.👌🏻 That’s me subbed👍🏻⛏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Thanks so much for subbing! I appreciate it ☺️

[@LindaSmith-vq1br]

I don’t know how cold that water was but I would brave it to find cool stuff like that! Great video!

[@WILDKYLE]

It's chilly water but feels great because it was so hot outside!

I feel dumber watching this...and I mean that as a compliment!! The way y’all know immediately what you are looking and rattle off names is beyond impressive! Awesome vid and New subscriber here.

[@RagnarRocks]

I wonder if those armadillo armor plates would polish in the rock tumbler? It's crazy how we have the same owls up here in Washington state, they take all the bunnies!

[@WILDKYLE]

Hmmmm they might! Not sure what they would look like since the colors aren't really that pretty hahaha

[@zippetydodahday]

Question time:🙋🏼‍♀️ #1- How do you keep any predators away from you, i e, snakes and gators ect while you’re exploring? #2- How do you keep from getting ill from possibly contaminated water, i e, amoebas, cholera, and other illnesses? Post note- this was a really PHun video.

[@bonesstones6584]

I can't believe how clear that water is! And your mastadon frag looks like bewbs! We're moving to Florida dude, I hope I get the chance to meet you and show you my collection.

[@davebardo8122]

great hunt.....what river is that

[@normawinton6832]

Nice fossils everyone! That mastodon molar was huge! Watch out for rabid beavers! Aquachigger was attacked by one and has to get a series of 3 shots. He got a pre rabies inoculation pryer to this attack which lessons the amount of shots you have to have. Stay safe

[@carriehanifen3434]

I already subscribed to him , he finds really cool stuff

[@skoitch]

Hi Bree!

[@jeffdon4]

Hey Kyle, could you try filming snorkel duck diving for rocks like in my videos from above water view?

[@TreasureHuntingNana]

8:14 they are knuckle bones ( I am sure you know this) It's already a game lol

[@RichDenmark]

@wildkyle Loved this video!! Couple of questions, how much total underwater time are you getting on a single tank? And what’s an estimated average Depth for this dive?

[@WILDKYLE]

Hey man! I didn't even have a full tank this day so it's hard to say. I didn't keep track of the time either haha. Diving mostly 5-12 feet!

[@RichDenmark]

@@WILDKYLE I was just curious. I noticed when you do your excited exclamations that you exhale, which can expend more gas. When I'm singing or yelling underwater I tend to close my throat and make noises without exhaling as much gas to save. Then will exhale slowly after. Might be worth trying to see if you conserve and get more minutes in for finding pretties! Would love to go on a river dive when I get back to Florida this summer.

[@joshs3916]
