They sure don't make 'em like Mel and Ethel anymore. That's true love right there. Ethel's a true ride-or-die woman and she'd probably follow Mel to the ends of the Earth. Both of them are equal parts adventurous and audacious. Imagine the stories their grandkids heard. Incredible. 🙅🙅👏👏👏👏
This is a phenomenal documentary! Production quality every bit as good if filmed by an experienced camera savvy outdoorsman today(ie Survivorman). Wow, cave paintings and gold nuggets, I am blown away!
No, that's just how it was. People didn't consider it dangerous, they considered it an adventure. That was state of the art equipment. Back when people actually lived their lives :(
Headless Valley (Mel and Ethel Ross, 1958). What an amazing couple to have the ability to venture out like that. No Fear. They don't make em like that anymore.
Great lost treasure story!How many have looked for Mels lost gold stream ?One could find it by the clues in this video.A helicopter would help.I believe one man found a prehistoric spear in one of those caves but lost it when climbing down and it dropped in the river never to be found again.
Well look at the traction its gained. Its hella disheartening as a creator when you put so much time and effort into something like this. For nothing to show for it. Look at my channels views. And you'll see sumn hilarious. My most popular video, is a completely different video than what i was really into at the time. And it only took me 15 minutes to make that popular video. While the others took much much longer. Yet. It has more views than my whole channel combined...
Okay am I the only one that it kills seeing that whole sock full of what was obviously gold get lost in that fall in that river crossing test?!? Smh...

Let's find it
It was Mel who climbed the cliff and found the petrified spear. He dropped it on his way down.
Any Gold in there ?
Very interesting
Is there modern footage of this site?

Where did they find the gold? Hmmmm
