  • Hello my Pestilential Privy-lovers (crypt keeper voice), and welcome to the latest BottleNed HALLOWEEN SPECIAL ! It’s a dark and stormy night out there; but it’s even darker where we’re digging, and that’s because we’re inside an abandoned building busting through the concrete floor into an 1870s privy that’s been sealed like a tomb since your grandma was licking lollipops ! That’s right - you read this correctly; in this very special episode, join our dusty, determined crew as we somehow locate a 19th century outhouse hole inside a still-standing structure. Screw urban exploration ! We do more than explore - we break the floor !!
    BottleNed has made this his full-time job. My objective is to share the excitement, dangers, & historical information gained from my digging adventures for everyone to enjoy & learn from. But I need some serious help paying basic bills along the way. Please click this link & consider becoming a Patron. Even $5/month helps !! Thank You !!

    Bottle Ned,
    Sweet video!!! I cant believe hiw many beautiful shards that were dug up. They would've been amazing if whole especially the blue ammonia, western whiskey, the small cup with gold leaf writing on it plus i can't forget the cathederal pickle. At least the majority of inks were whole. The amber was my favorite color cone ink. Was P3 going through the tailings from the privy? I'm glad she's digging with you ya'll compliment each other. I really liked the Pawnee Indian too-re. How hard would it be too purchase one. I like collecting bottles that has to do with Native Americans. Are you still receiving the patreon payment? My bank card expired and i hoping it is still going through. Hope all is well with you, take care.
    HAPPY HALLOWEEN

      Hi Deb ! Native American themed bottle collecting is a huge subcategory of collecting ! I’d send you the one we dug but it’s already been snatched up. There are more available online though and I can keep my eyes out for another one. I sent you an email telling you I had some cathedral sauces for you but didn’t get a response - not sure what’s going on with that. And you dropped off my Patreon list as well so maybe the card isn’t going through anymore. At any rate I hope you’re doing well and thanks for the support and kind words! Maybe check the spam folder or junk folder of your email ha ha somehow mine might’ve made it in there .

    @51:00 You don't pronounce English counties (county not country) that end with shire like "shy-er" (even though you do pronounce the word Shire that way, like where Frodo lives IN LOTR) instead it's said like "shir". Stafford-shir, or Cambridge-shir, or Buckingham-shir etc. You don't use the E on the end. It's a mistake Americans often make.

    Hey Ned and Paige - GREAT installment and interesting things you dug that were almost whole. Great inserts of ads and other informational pics as well. A real heartbreaker that hole... Anyway - I have an idea for a short video for you to do for us folks who don't know a ton about glass and how to determine the age of glass based on the bottle top. I hear you using a bunch of vocabulary like "punnelled" and "blob top" and "straw marks" and a bunch other regarding the lip of the top. I got the idea when you did such a beautiful job describing the history of ink bottles. Come on professor B.Ott - learn us!

      Organic material decomposes pretty well and safely in the ground after a decade or two. I’ve not heard of any privy digger getting sick from digging through old ex-night soil except for in cases of what they call “valley fever” out here which is a fungal spore living in the ground and that can be gotten through inhaling even surface dust in certain places

We have no idea what they put in those "medicine" & poison bottles. They even put lead & mercury in makeup & face-cream back then. So imagine what's in thing that were meant to be toxic.

    Sorry Ned, thought you were a bit insensitive in this one. I don’t assume to know, but I would think that broken glass takes up a whole lot less space than whole glass, and these sights are what they are dumps and I imagine space in a privy was limited.

    • @BottleNed
      @BottleNed  11 місяців тому +1

      I’m not sure what you mean exactly but yes you’re right about broken stuff taking up less space. This particular hole exhibited characteristics that I’ve seen before. Number one: the intact good Bottles were not present; only the worthless unrecyclable botts were whole, suggesting that this pit wasn’t a smash-fest, but rather, there was a person on site highgrading the trash they could re-use or make some $$ off of. Since a few Chinese artifacts were present, it’s reasonable to assume there was a Chinese person employed on site. Since the Chinese were Notorious scavengers in the 1800s, I would guess the Chinese person was the one high-grading the good bottles, not the wealthy family who lived here. They were well off as it is and didn’t need to recycle for pennies
