meMiner broke his hand and still continued to dig. That's what being passionate about your passtime means. Daisy is not a cat but a magic dog. She licked meMiners hand and now it's healed.
Praying for fast recovery on your hand. I just realized this video is from the fall. Go a little easier on yourself this year. We need you in good health to film those great northern adventures you provide for us out here. Take care.
Bummer on the hand. I'm Glade to see it's healing, hopefully it won't slow you down this spring detecting. It's great to see you Daisy on the hunt for treasures. Thank you for the video!!!
@@meMiner Awesome the weather in tennessee has just broke this week. It's going to be in the mid 60's. My buddy and I are going arrow head hunting and detecting. Hopefully the weather will break for you soon.
It is sometimes fairly easy to get hurt in some of the places we go hunting our rocks. I am glad you showed Daisy, I was afraid something was wrong with her. Glad you healed without surgery. Havagudun Bud.
Excellent video, awesome crystals, really bad owl impression 😂 This man should be snapped up by national geographic for his own series, Thanks for making and sharing, hope your finger heals quickly my friend
So sorry about the hand, that swelling looked real bad too (funny how broken bones will do that to you). Hoping to see you and Daisy on some future adventures.
Sweet adventure I remember you breaking your hand you never did say how it happened yup amazing how how we keep going lol great to see daisy again glad your healed up how is the heart doing now and your wife and daughter soon it will be warm enough for more adventures take care my friend
That was too funny Daisy there at the end declaring she is not a cat! That was a brilliant “Zoom Call” with that Lawyer! 😱😂😂 Great video....too bad it was a bust! But a least your hand got “busted”!😔😅😘 Be very careful next trip out! GL and HH on your next adventure!🙏🏼🍀♥️👋🏼💔
I left my last comment before it got to the spot in the video about breaking your hand. I hope you are recovering well. I pulverized the 5th metatarsal in my right hand back in January 2005. I had to go through two reconstructive surgeries over a six month period, so it required many titanium pins to piece as much as possible back together. I went through a year of physical therapy and got just over 90% mobility restored. I wish you a full recovery. Working on anything with only one hand is so crippling, especially when it's your dominant hand.
When I came out of the cast, I could hardly move my fingers. It improved over time and I was given some physio exercises to help. I have almost full range of motion now but it still hurts somewhat and is weaker. A few days rockhounding should fix my complaints. ;-)
@@meMiner Yeah. It will take a while to stop hurting when using your hand. The hot wax dip was the part of PT I most enjoyed. My second surgery was to remove all the hardware out of my hand and to scrape away the bone scarring that formed over the tendon, which entrapped it, preventing me from being able to move my pinky. Anyhow, don't worry about replying again on my comment. Save your hand movement for something better.
Looks like it's been a tough year for you. Let's hope your bad luck has passed and this year holds nothing but physical and spiritual riches. You seem pretty good at taking things in stride, so you're already on your way ;)
So that's how it happened! At least it was in pursuit of crystals! Glad you healed up well. I remember your videos of apatite crystals just falling out of the dirt. Maybe you can show us your crystal collection sometime? Thanks for a look back, take care.
MeMiner will always be in our hearts.. We all love you sir... Give priority to Health sir.. You have guided all of us in many ways. Your search for gems kindled interest in us.. Atleast I gained lot of knowledge about types of rocks which you showed us.. Thank 🙏🙏🙏yousir
Here's my advice on breaking a bone. "Don't do it again!" Like I know anything about. Ain't never broke a bone. Well, none of my own anyway. Glad you healed up and they didn't have to cut anything off. Keep smiling.
The toughness is strong with this one, Obi-wan. And, although a gentleman. I’m still trying to figure out the cheerleaders. They were definitely gem quality.
Your lucky Mr.MeMiner my Doctor broke mine seven different times resetting them redrilling pins and rods each and every time I paid for platinum ones when they finally healed he removed the pins rods out of the bone here's he wanted them back I told him Nope!! I PAID FOR THEM THEY ARE MINE TO KEEP!!! HEY HIS bill was paid in full 😉 Thanks Mr.MeMiner glad you got better!!!; )
Glad you are recovering fine* cheeers me.miner* i remember when you had a heart problem*the hand is not that bad compared:) nice adventures* great landscapes and nice crystals*
These subterranean videos are always the best! Not the broken hand part (ouch! 😫) but basically anytime you’re digging in some dark, tight little cave under a tree. I could totally see why not even a swollen broken hand could motivate you to leave! Interesting how most of those crystals were uninteresting to you - I would have been happy to see any of them! 😍
I prefer rare or well formed crystals. That might sound a bit spoiled, but I would be overwhelmed if I brought everything I found home and I don't mind leaving rocks behind for someone else. ;-)
@@meMiner I totally get that. As I learn more about rocks and fossils, I develop a better eye for finding good specimens and no longer take home the crap I used to think was interesting. This is also essential to avoid living the life of a hoarder. 👍
The tough guys continue their mission even with broken hand💪. Don't forget to take care of yourself now sir🥴 Very interesting crystals and minerals in this exciting episode of meMiner👍👍👍🤠 Btw, I Got Mail!!. Thank you, thank you and thank you. You are a legend Greig🙏🙏🙏 Greetings from Kenneth Prospecting Norway
I’m happy your hand healed up well! I would value your opinion on what I’m finding in my local spot, seems mostly different forms of selenite, but have some black rhombohedral crystals I’m not sure about. They are softer, about a 3 hardness-most mica based. There’s pics at the end of my video. I’m just starting rockhounding!
Seems I remember you breaking your hand.. had no idea you were superman and kept digging...bet the wife had some sweet words for you. lol. Good to watch a meMiner video again!.. Take care and stay safe!
Great video, cheerleaders? 🤔😎Hope your hand is recovering, I broke my right wrist a few months ago “ouch🤬” so after surgery and some added hardware it still hurts but it is possible to rockhound one handed! Not easy but possible😁.
I've broken about 7 bones the past 5 years, never went to the hospital once, always had to set the bones back myself (as best I could) and continue on without any casting or wrapping. 😬 I know your pain well, hope it goes away soon.
In the past, I have broken toes and ribs and didn't visit the hospital because they don't do anything for it. However in this case, I needed their help and equipment or it wouldn't have healed right.
Hiya Greg, sorry about your hand, awesome video though, every time I heard that rattle snake 🐍sound, I would jump and I would feel the hair stand up on my neck, it was 4° no way a snake would bite at that temperature, but yall don't have rattle snakes. It scared me anyway. 🤣 That's not a good way to stop rockhounding by the way, I hope you have a speedy recovery, so stay safer and I hope you have a great blessed day, and give Daisy a good pet on the head. Cya! 😸🐟out!
I had to crack my peanuts with my left hand for a while. Least of the concerns. I found out there are lots of things I only do (did) with my right hand and it was downright awkward to use the other hand. Also, made deer hunting an adventure.
Caver461 & Jeff already cleaned out all the Titanite years ago & that mud...you sure that wasn't Daisy's droppings. Hope your hand heals fast, spring is around the corner.
meMiner, this must be what you call a graphic video? I think the added USC graphics were a nice extra touch! Btw, were you a hockey player in a former life? Don't let a broken body part stop the work at hand (pun intended)! :-)
Oh No......! How in the world did you end up breaking your hand....? OUCH...! Love the dancing Cheer Leaders....! =) Glad its all better now...! Daisy's eyes lit up like something from spook show.....!
I had originally intended on yelling "rock" where the word in the song is "tusk". In the end, I didn't know how to do it without getting a copyright stroke. So I went with the USC marching band and cheerleaders instead.
I was watching on mute to try and identify the crystals with as few clues as possible, man did that cheerleader segment take me by surprise. What was going on there?
A floor jack would fit in the hole and you can open it up with minimal effort you would just have to carry it all the way from your truck though Hopefully you have some ibuprofen or something stronger for the ride home Daisy could do some digging for you
Fave parts... cheers leaders of course 😂, Clint Eastwood whistle music and finally, you holding the flashlight with a broken hand. All for a bunch a hornblend, few apps, couple of Tites n sum meat snacks! 😆. I’m sorry for laughing, at least someone carried yer shovel back fer ya. 😝. PS, ya big fat fibber magee, you’re not quitting crystal hunting yet, see ya next year! 😝

People who love Natural Stone. Firstly, get well soon. Thank you for your effort. Hi from Turkey. 🇹🇷
Thank you so much!
You are a great guy. I love your love of rock hounding.
"I think I broke my hand, see how it's swollen." *Continues digging*
Rock on!
Wow, broken hand but you kept digging. You are a true living legend....Rock on
Always loved the intro music that sets the stage of excitement to watch and learn...
It is sometimes fairly easy to get hurt in some of the places we go hunting our rocks. I am glad you showed Daisy, I was afraid something was wrong with her. Glad you healed without surgery. Havagudun Bud.
Daisy is doing really well. Her limp has gone away and she is off the meds for it. We are both looking forward to new adventures.
Excellent video, awesome crystals, really bad owl impression 😂
This man should be snapped up by national geographic for his own series,
Thanks for making and sharing, hope your finger heals quickly my friend
You could see the owl didn't care for it either. ;-)
Sorry about your pain, by the way thanks for those Trojan cheerleaders, representing my So Cal,nothing but love bro.
They are the best. Big fan
the tittle got me scared
A deep-felt thank you, for the hypnotic quality to this video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Damn man that is dedication. Get well soon man, it wont take too long.
So sorry about the hand, that swelling looked real bad too (funny how broken bones will do that to you). Hoping to see you and Daisy on some future adventures.
We always said it "who cooks for you, who cooks for you all?"
Quick recovery your videos are always great
American owls, you-all. ;-)
Oh bummer , healing prayers for fast recovery, beautiful spot 💙😊
Hello meMiner, That is quite a variety of beautiful crystals. Hope the hand heals quickly. Thanks for sharing.
That basically summed up 2020 in a nutshell. I hope you mend quickly!
Sweet adventure I remember you breaking your hand you never did say how it happened yup amazing how how we keep going lol great to see daisy again glad your healed up how is the heart doing now and your wife and daughter soon it will be warm enough for more adventures take care my friend

If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all. LOL
Interesting dig. I’m so sorry you were injured. Get well soon.
How the heck did you break your hand? God Bless you and may he put his healing hands on you to help with your healing. Speedy recovery
Thanks much. It still hurts and is weak, but I will be ready for spring.
@@meMiner take care of yourself my friend
💪😁👍 awesome thanks for sharing the awesome adventure 👍👍 now hope to see that hand healing up spring is around the corner ⛏️⛏️⛏️⛏️💪😎👍
Soon come spring. It will be nice to get out there again
So that's how it happened! At least it was in pursuit of crystals! Glad you healed up well. I remember your videos of apatite crystals just falling out of the dirt. Maybe you can show us your crystal collection sometime? Thanks for a look back, take care.
That earlier apatite adventure was sweet. I've never seen another like it.
I hope your hand recovers and you continue to collect crystals! I love your videos!
I hope to be collecting next weekend if the snow holds off. ;-)
Hey been wondering about you!! Happy to see your hand is much better. Nice Daisy’s speaks 😀
"Give the dog your food".
That hand injury looked like a zero on the fun scale! Glad you're mended. All the best, Lanny
It was no fun but healed up well
MeMiner will always be in our hearts.. We all love you sir... Give priority to Health sir.. You have guided all of us in many ways. Your search for gems kindled interest in us.. Atleast I gained lot of knowledge about types of rocks which you showed us.. Thank 🙏🙏🙏yousir

Here's my advice on breaking a bone. "Don't do it again!"
Like I know anything about. Ain't never broke a bone. Well, none of my own anyway.
Glad you healed up and they didn't have to cut anything off.
Keep smiling.
Well said! The thing about accidents is they happen so fast.
Hi ! Mister meMiner good to see you ! From Canada , Québec, Great videos as always .
Merci bien
The toughness is strong with this one, Obi-wan. And, although a gentleman. I’m still trying to figure out the cheerleaders. They were definitely gem quality.
Break your hand and keep on digging. A true mineral collector.
Your lucky Mr.MeMiner my Doctor broke mine seven different times resetting them redrilling pins and rods each and every time I paid for platinum ones when they finally healed he removed the pins rods out of the bone here's he wanted them back I told him Nope!! I PAID FOR THEM THEY ARE MINE TO KEEP!!! HEY HIS bill was paid in full 😉 Thanks Mr.MeMiner glad you got better!!!; )
I broke a tooth one time that was filled with gold. I asked for it back too. ;-)
Glad you are recovering fine* cheeers me.miner* i remember when you had a heart problem*the hand is not that bad compared:) nice adventures* great landscapes and nice crystals*
Very true!
We all get hurt from time to time, the most important thing is that you are well now. Greetings
true that
So that's where you went! Damn that looks like it was sore! Daisy looked beat lol. Thanks for sharing.
Daisy always sleeps for a few days after a good trip. Poor girl.

Glad you received it. Mail took a while, eh? Hope you enjoy.
I’m happy your hand healed up well! I would value your opinion on what I’m finding in my local spot, seems mostly different forms of selenite, but have some black rhombohedral crystals I’m not sure about.
They are softer, about a 3 hardness-most mica based. There’s pics at the end of my video. I’m just starting rockhounding!
Selenite in armour stone? If so, I bet the rock smells like diesel when you hammer it and then the black might be bitumen (hydrocarbon).
@@meMiner Thanks for the reply, I’ll do some more research with that info! 👍🏼
Abattoir hand ? Man that sucks ! Hope your healing goes well!!!🤗
ouch! looks painful😑 also there were a couple distractions in this video! but really liked the crystals👍
Great video, greatly appreciated.🙏❤✌
Glad you enjoyed it
Ouch, glad you are on the mend. More holes to dig! Take care.
Thanks 👍
Oh shit!! Miner I thought you broke your hand again!! But it was the original injury you sustained previously. Thank God my man 💪!!!
Yeah, don't want to do that again. Once is enough.
Praying for your health that your hand will heal quickly.
Seems I remember you breaking your hand.. had no idea you were superman and kept digging...bet the wife had some sweet words for you. lol. Good to watch a meMiner video again!.. Take care and stay safe!
You got that right!
You can always walk you never know what your eyes might find :) Hope for your return soon sir. Stay Safe !

hope you get better soon, because spring's around the corner and it's RH season
I am ready and eager to go. I have a trip planned in a couple of weeks, unless we get more snow
Is that radioactive mud. Remember you mentioning there were some radioactive rocks out there. Ouch to the injury. Glad you healed okay.
Take care. That had to hurt. You should be ready to go by spring.
Looking forward to spring. Today is a nice day. Won't be long now.
You're awesome. 💙💪
I love the crystals. i often go crystal hunting myself. what would be some good advice for rockhunting in the nature
Go to the rocks.
Go where they have been found before.
Bring a dog.
@@jamesscott1932 I am STILL laughing! 😂
Looked like a pretty good break😬 Never heard of tantinite but it looks cool!
How did you manage to do that? Rock fall situation...🤔 Hope you're out again soon.😎✌️
It was a stupid accident, likely not caught on camera. ;-)
Rest up young man, Before long, the thrill of the hunt will come calling again 👍
It called me yesterday. Hopefully, I got some good video to share. Beautiful calcite crystals in dolostone.
Hiya Greg, sorry about your hand, awesome video though, every time I heard that rattle snake 🐍sound, I would jump and I would feel the hair stand up on my neck, it was 4° no way a snake would bite at that temperature, but yall don't have rattle snakes. It scared me anyway. 🤣

We have Mississauga rattle snakes, but not as many as when I was younger.
could someone please tell me what;s going on. all the "crystals' ate dirty. my sounds off. no hint of location.
Location was at the start of the video
I bet there have been so many apatite jokes made by rockhounds over the years. I'd attempt my own but you probably can't stomach another one.
Apatite, stomach .. hahaha
Bummer, hope your hand is healing up alright. How’d you break it?
No camera was running at the time, so I will keep my dumb actions a secret. hehe
Be careful brother. Glad you put that clip in at the end, n that your hand has gotten better ❤️💎❤️🙏
get well soon x
I like the So Cal touch,
Keep the videos coming!
Some days peanuts, some days hulls. Breaking bones is never a good thing. I'm glad that you mended. Continue to be safe and stay healthy 😷⚒⛑

You could still see my head above the hole, so that one wasn't Jeff's. LOL
Did a big ole rock fall on your paw? How did it get busted? Inquiring miners want to know 😁👍🏻👉🏻🖖🏻👀

Koo loo koo Koo
And what was the wife's reaction? 😯
Take care and safe journeys sir.
Wife was surprisingly understanding. LOL
Oh no! Heal up!❤
meMiner, this must be what you call a graphic video? I think the added USC graphics were a nice extra touch! Btw, were you a hockey player in a former life? Don't let a broken body part stop the work at hand (pun intended)! :-)
I only played shinny and pick up games. My parents didn't have the money or time to send me to team hockey.
Crikey! I dunno..You in the wars again! Glad your on the mend.👍

With a middle name like that, you most definitely should. ;-)
Wow you broke your hand and just continued mining😦 what a legend
A floor jack would fit in the hole and you can open it up with minimal effort you would just have to carry it all the way from your truck though
Hopefully you have some ibuprofen or something stronger for the ride home
Daisy could do some digging for you
I haven't yet tried a jack, but I bet in the right spot that it would work great

Just like you don't feel the cold...Finding rocks helps. ;-)
You have been in the wars lately . Need to be very careful from now on but still enjoy your hobby .
And all this good stuff while listening to Lindsay Buckingham
owies, shudders and flinches at, the thought, of having the bones pushed back in
I told him to "do what he had to do." By the time he was done pressing them, there were tears running down my face. It was quite painful.
oh no pls dont
