WWII German M42 Helmet - found on Western Front Battlefield

[@diqitaldreams]

Wow, this is really cool! I wish I could find cool stuff like that where I live. Either way, hello from Miami, Florida, USA!

[@WWIIMetalDetecting]

Deep lying objects usually indicate a very small signal. The trick is to recognize these small signals and yet to go digging. And how bigger the search-coil, the deeper it detects.

[@jeffwilkes7993]

I admire the fact that you search for the relics of war ! Mabey the finds will help people understand the past ! Great job

[@D7oom225]

I wished, I was with you guys! I love exploring!

[@AANate007]

that was pretty cool. I found it odd that the leather straps looked unharmed. Lucky find! Original ones sell for close to $400!

[@stuart1970]

bedankt for the reply,keep searching and good luck..

[@redraz09]

you got a great hobby there..and a good video, well done

[@dunkirchen1940]

Lucky the thing was sitting up-right. Otherwise the liner probably would have completely rotted. Great find! I got a nice one just like it.

[@thennowforeverforest]

Nice find mate :) , Greetings from England

[@jamesdewer]

Looks like lots of backbreaking work.

[@ToneysWorld]

Nice finds guys, amazing

[@officialBJW71]

Prachtige vondst..mooie opmerking " die had ik nog niet " :-)

[@joepapp01]

Awesome guys!!! Great job!

[@redsofanfield]

it's not so hard to believe i think, the helmet was buried right side up, it could create an airbubble when buried that slowed the decay of the helmet liner.

[@БогданБумер-ф6щ]

Who looking in 2018!?)

[@SgtMcCullin]

Nice found.

[@MisterLEM0NS]

'Hey dude theres still a kraut in here' *camera zooms out to see perfectly clean german soldier in uniform under the helmet*

[@chokey121]

Dude dat is awesome! lokatie?

[@k98100]

@Kindsbach99 Grave robbers are people who take the cool stuff away by a fallen soldier and leave the bones behind. These people are no grave robbers!! They like to find ww2 stuff just like me. and do you see any bones on this video??:P RIP all fallen soldiers!!!

[@stuart1970]

great find guys, was it a strong signal on your metaaldetector when you found the helmet? hope you find more good finds....

[@Burco1]

Have you gentleman found any additional helmets? Great find!

[@iamurdad77]

i have managed to get hold of an MD8 mine detector do you think this will be good? i am going to poland in april,i have a fairly basic detector over there already, and all i have been finding from the war is mostly russian Tokarev cases and live rounds, hoping the MD8 will get me better results

[@uscgkid109]

@NYmosVids true but the sad thing is, most of that stuff wasn't left by a soldier that was alive more than likely the soldier had been killed and they left some of his stuff their. thats why people find stg44's and mp40's kar 98k's and thinks like that

[@metaaldetectoren]

hey leuk filmpje. maar zoeken jullie? ergens in gld? greetzz

[@BedsnHerts]

Looks like it still had a helmet cover on it!! Or is it just the edge of the metal rusting away?

[@piecrust21]

wow. I'm surprised the leather was still intact.

[@CulturaBrasilNumismatica]

O Trabalho de arqueologos é um trabalho ardo masi maravilhoso

[@martinfretwell]

history is made for the discoverer not to be taken by the state you find you keep

[@stperkin]

Thanks glennetnixx!

[@YeOldenHenk]

Goede vondst!

[@inkyguy]

I just hope you don't bump into any unexploded ordinance!

[@TheCottonTop]

look ho good of shape it still is.

[@uscgkid109]

jesus christ that is some loose dirt. the dirt where i live is brown clay so its solid as hell

[@xXGreyWolf]

could you post a video of it all cleaned up?

[@kingtiger01]

@glennetnixz then give soil additions and farming which occured later. There easily burried in places like that. wouldnt doubt there is plenty of Rifles and sidearms, other memorabilia and things buried in forgotten trenches. by people in a hurry to forget the war.

[@dntlss]

how the hell does a helmet get this deep? i know the allies buried large caches of them but this is a single one and that dude is almost completely inside that hole!

[@0tairanis0]

als ik vragen mag: wat voor een metaal detector heb je? en als ik nog een vraag zou mogen stellen: hoeveel heb je daar voor betaald. greetz willemsNL ;)

[@Arelak]

Amazing condition.

[@goddammitreggieray]

wow its still in real good condition might be worth some money

[@adz24888]

@periesicsd do they get in trouble for digging relics up?

[@cgibbons30]

i agree with MyTymeBand08 sorry but that hole if far too dry the earth or soil would have been alot wetter unless there in a desert and plus that helmet did not have any soil inside it. so i agree it was a setup.

[@alexvisser5913]

Still waiting for my first helmet

[@tjorvenxD0o01ste]

die grond is er heel erg droog perfekt om te zoeken met metaaldedector

[@nlmindcontroller]

mooie vondst jonges

[@OnlineIsland]

@dntlss In 63 years, everything can happen, the wind can blow sand over it, and other stuff like that.

[@dantheman5551]

This is something I really wan't do to, I would love to go metal detecting in somewhere Like Normandy Beach, France. Do you need permission or a special license to do this?

[@Driewer]

Could I get some Info on this? I am Completely new to this. Is this Illegal in your country? What do you do when you find Human Remains? Is this common? I would love to own a German Helmet in my collection. I hope you guys are Respectful when you do this. I have a strong military family, I'v had family fight and die. My Great uncle was a Tank Retriever and fought in the battle of the bulge during the war.

[@Explogercom]

Hello What detector grabbed it soo deep?

[@PERPARSON]

damn at 3.34 you can se a magnet of motorcycle and fan who cooled down the engine i doubt that was luftwaffe

[@vinegaroon1]

Cool, dudes! (But how did it get buried so deep in the first place?)

[@CREATIVEKILLERZ]

mooie helm man zeker in polen of zo he?

[@CREATIVEKILLERZ]

vet cool man ik zoek nu ook al heel lang met de md maar ik zoek wel naar helmen maar ik vind ze niet maar die helm is echt vet

[@seriouscc]

Nice!!!

[@kitchsc]

what did you do to the helment after the recording

[@ndkblackhawk]

Vraagje, waar is dit, Rond Arnhem of Eindhoven ofzo? Wat is het verschil tussen een M42, heb je nog andere duitse helmen misschien?

[@FpsRix]

awesome..after the winter im gonna buy metal detector and gonna search some stuff to :P

[@dojomatt98]

@NYmosVids Yeah but I live in Rochester NY! I so want a German helmet, but they are like $300-$500 buck!

[@terenowiec69]

Welche marke metal detector haben sie?

[@krixig]

Wow. Id be speechless if I pulled some German gear out of the ground like that. I'd be pretty nervous about old landmines though haha

[@pajdo1992]

how much does a metal detector cost? a good one?

[@SuperRIDDE5]

How did you guys find it? Just randomly?

[@CulturaBrasilNumismatica]

É um risco escavar assim em lugares de guerra

[@WouterNed]

waar hebbie hem gevonden, duitsland ofzo??

[@thijsairskater]

waar heb je dat spul gevonden?

[@alberto_imbrosciano]

great!!!

[@omgdan23]

wow that can be kind of worth alot of money

[@periesicsd]

when they get caught, no more detector, they take away your car, get surch warrant, and a high fine!! lol

[@jdwnielsen]

what detector do you use?

[@walthanas]

He actually said exactly that. If you spend some time around them, you'll hear Dutch people use more English expressions like "shit" and WTF.

[@hill62ypres]

jaja... toen waren jullie nog verbaasd als je een helm uit de grond trok... Als ik kijk naar julie recente video's is dat heel anders :)

[@Deadsurfr]

What battle fields? What's the location?

[@americanpatriot542]

some people dont realize conscripted german people who didnt want to fight died for their country and dont have respect for it

[@SteelCrash]

@9400dan yea didnt say anything about working.And yes place where i live was hideout for partisans so yea i woud fund something if i weren't so lazy

[@terenowiec69]

Ich bin aus Polen,ich habe Minelab sovereign GT, grusse aus Chelm.

[@whopper1209]

Die had ik nog niet! XD

[@Jaredman68]

where we those guys at it looks like it could of been a fox hole that used to be there

[@Burco1]

where was this helmet found?

[@stperkin]

Actually on average a few people die (mostly farmers or kids) every year from WWI unexploded ordinances in France and the Low Countries.

[@PanzerKSK]

dont you have to watch out for mines?

[@Karasca]

if it was an old landmine i think it wouldnt work anymore.

[@TheUSMarine5]

how did they know to look there........metal detector?

[@CaptainFysh]

Nice find, but think, what if someone died In that?

[@hanspadmos1868]

dat dat binnenwerk nog zo goed is na 70 jaar onder de grond

[@ridge983]

[@h4mmers3x]

[@Xaiango]

[@BothtaweeKelly]

Something tells me you guys boaght it in the store or internet, burried it and then made a video ofyou finding it. What are the odds of you happening to be recording at that moment? I can't say. But If you are telling the trueth here...NICE FIND!

[@aka99]

Hello, please let me give you a small hint, if you find dogtags, please contact Berlin! As far i am informed, you can own everything what, even the dogtags, but just inform Berlin, every time you find bones with dogtags! Thank you very much.

[@ClownDitte]

dit is zo vet!:D

[@carlosalrofre]

♫ pap papapa pap pap pa ♫ amazing discovery

[@David_HH]

[@robertogomez9517]

over een paar dagen krijg ik mijn garet 250 binnen en het eerste wat ik doe is naar de rijn gaan!

[@KingJoker1324]

yes it can. it was only germans in WWI in WWII it was germans and japan

[@logelamutp]

what you said kraut?

[@unblestmuffin]

wow that guy was a drinker the three bottles around his gear i wonder how he died

[@cuncuni1095]

Hello there

[@periesicsd]

@adz24888 Yes, big troubles! They can get a search warrant, they will check their banking accounts, the car that they use to get to that place and to take the stuff they find home, that will also be taken away, and you don't get it back. Never. The fines are very high. Also, digging around like that is seen as vandalism to nature, even when it are just some weeds and small plants. Their metal detector will also get taken away, don't get that back either. And more things! No, it's no joke!

[@pythag123]

...who's property is this on.....
