Giant bones! I find a collection of very large bones encased in rock

- I headed out for a really long hike into a new area to see if I could find any fossils on a secluded beach. There were gale force winds on the way out but the weather report said it would die down later in the which is what I was betting on!
On the way, I came across some amazing fossils including one of my biggest bone clusters yet!
I also announce the winner of the fossil crab replica competition where you had to guess the weight of the replica crab.

14:05 yeah, if there's one thing i've subconsciously noticed, it's how clean these places are. Unreal.
It's New Zealand , they actually CARE about their land. The USA doesn't care ,it's all about greed and money.
You picked up a giant bone around 47 seconds. You'd be surprised how many we mistake for 'just rocks'. And that's not rock that bone is sticking out of. It's flesh. And some of that other stuff you're onto but you'd probably pee yourself if you knew what it really was. Great finds.
@SeaPin lol and I bet you didn't know those supposed million years old dinosaur bones are often found with flesh attached and the archaeologists love to scrape that off to get their reticulated skeleton for props. How on earth does flesh last that long? It doesn't. Man really lived with and alongside dinosaurs. And there is so much truth hidden today, yes giants really did exist and still do.
IZonda please do tell us more !!
Mamlambo finds a huge rock, a whale bone cluster. "Weighs a ton" he says and then size it up - will it fit in the backpack?
Hahahah I need a bigger backpack!!
@@MamlamboFossils ...and a helicopter to airlift the "backpack" off the beach...
@@MamlamboFossils what kind of backpack is good for that kind of weight?
@@alalmalal I just use an ordinary hiking backpack I found 2nd hand.
Must be a bit disappointing to find fossils that large that they can't be carried. Other finds looked quite nice though. Beautiful area to spend time. 🦀🐳
Oh great day. You made me laugh in a good way. At the beginning I thought ‘he needs a chopper to transport the big ones…’ so near the end you said you needed a private helicopter…wow I grinned from ear to ear 😁😆 Thank you for the trek!
That boulder with the ribs is heart-wrenching. Cute little chiton there. Hope you find more of that whale, maybe someone with a heli wants to come help you out too. Congrats to the winners! Another great video, cheers!
If a museum didn't want the big rib fossil cluster or any of your big finds. It would look like a University with courses in geology and paleontology, and natural history would want them to teach with. Students could prep them and display them in classrooms, some of the large rocks could be hiding much more than a glance can pick up on. Plus the students could move them 🤣
Watching your videos is such a great encouragement to keep my eyes open when wandering along. You never know what you'll find!
you can always count on a crab fossil. Massive ribs, great video
Here in San Diego north of the caves
I found this layer of iridescent abalone shell weathering out of the cliffs looked awesome. It was like opal but it would just crumble in your hands.
What a lovely spot,sights and sounds. I know the smell, love the sea and all it's wonder. Lucky you. Thanks for sharing your adventures 🐚🐋🦈🦭
Wow, amazing find! Hopefully more pieces turn up like they did with the whale skull
I hope so!
5:15 left boulder... i wonder what that circular (coffee bean half) formation is... kinda looks like it formed, then around it, radiating, the rest of the stone "grew".
U mean the alien eye ball lookin rock? Ryt?
Fantastic beach and magic place ! Almost every stone is a prehistoric fossil . You'are a lucky men :-)
Magic place

The stones ARE the fossils.
@@Grim0954 also Mudfossil University.
I feel so bad. I wish you could have taken that cluster of whale ribs. What an amazing find!
You didn't pack those ribs out?? LOL You need a pack for the front of you as well :)
Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
Thanks! Yeah, it would be a big carry!! 😃
@@MamlamboFossils You're welcome! A little but to much lol
Great video!! loved seeing you having fun and having a good time on the rockhounding.
Hopefully more pieces for the winners.
Another great find, so jealous
Thanks mate!!! Now to just get it home!
Thanks for everyone that entered the competition and well done to the two winners!

I went back for a 7 hour hike/ rock climb, and have extraordinary pictures to share, regards Jake
@@UserRandJ Everybody wants to see these pictures. Do you have a Facebook account you can share them on?
@@MamlamboFossils you need to check out Mud fossils on you tube.
@@MamlamboFossils well it's strange I can't share these pics of buried giant trees. I'll find ways where the people contacting me are not just wanting to go collect beautiful petrified timber.
I have 48 acres in Colorado but I cant find any fossils only Aspen and
Pole pines but loads of wildflowers.
That was a good walk Mate. Those ribs in the rock were a cool find good video. Weve got dinosaure bones in the rock at our local beach they found a lot of dino's here years ago. Im glad i found this channel im subscribing👍🇭🇲👍
I'm fascinated by the videos you make. To see a "rock" transform into a beautiful fossil which I would consider ART! Rock on man😉😉 Enjoying your videos all the way from Baton Rouge, Louisiana USA
Great video, PLEASE go back and get that bone cluster! That is such a great find. You dont need a helicopter, just a friend with a boat, and an improvised barrel barge.
Wow! That was definitely a tad too big to even attempt with your little wagon. 😆 That was an awesome day.
Very fascinating ! Thanks for the video . I think what blows my mind is all those rocks and boulders on the beach look to have the same identical matrix as the whale skeletons. It begs the question , how many stones do we see that are just busted up people or animals petrified and then water rolled and wind blown ? Just makes me wonder.
Now you are thinking along mudfossill thoughts. It really makes you wonder. Check out mudfossil university.
wish i had these kind of fossils close to me, there are some ordovician sediments that I have sporadic access to, but nothing I could do frequently. good finds!
What a beautiful beach & sunset. Love the adventures as well as the finds. Too bad that bone cluster of ribs was so big. I mean I know you're a he-man 💪, but...😂 Congratulations to the winners! 🎉 Really enjoyed the video. 👍❤️
In bear country people carry hiking sticks with bells on them, so that they don't startle a grizzly. They tend to take being startled badly too. Especially if it's a momma with babies.
Oooo, such a big rock and so far away on foot. Almost impossible to get back home!
We loved seeing you having a good time on the hunt. Keep having fun, stay safe and be healthy. Congratulations to the winners. 😷⚒
It’s so beautiful there. I am in awe of your knowledge of fossils encased in rock, and yet you are still able to identify the creature only with a little bit of bone exposed. Love your videos!
Great vid as always , thank you for posting.
Your "anemone / sea snail at 10:00 is actually a chiton which is a marine mollusk of varying size in the class Polyplacophora.
Thanks for the info!
It’s a bizarre thing to see that beach so far away from North America. It reminds me of the beaches in New Brunswick Canada. I spent many hours with my head bent over looking for items that I had no idea what was what! I’ve seen similar stones and I now wonder if they were shark or whale bones!
😊 I'm all with you on this one! I've been fascinated by the Gaspesie region, the Cap Chat SteAnne des monts, for the many stones I found by the beach and very old stone tools. In the mountain too, my friend lives there, so I got to see places and collected so many different kind of stones on the beach that I'm still discovering after 2 years 😄 And with Google earth I saw that some patterns are going to New Brunswick, many seemed like very big creatures...
Considering that only 5% of the region has been checked and it's position, many things are still to be found about earth's beautiful way to tell us stories, ours 😊
Is there anyway of retrieving that enormous slab of bones?
We will have to "get to the chopper!"
@@MamlamboFossils lol
@@MamlamboFossils wow, would be great to watch 😂😅
thank you for once again taking all of us along for the journey! awesome scenery
When exoskeletons are affordable you will have to get one of the companies to sponsor you and you could get the big fossils out no problem 😂
We'll go fund him: Fossil Bone Man
I lived right on the beach for years and I only discover your channel after I move hundreds of miles from the coast. I missed out on some great adventures.
You'll have to do a roadtrip 😀
Dude have you ever heard of Mudfossils??
Basically petrified or somehow mineralised organics.
I've been collecting stones and rocks now for around 5 years and I've found some really interesting specimens. Human fingers with nails and bone showing, hearts which are now solid stone.
Blew my head straight off.
Called pareidolia dude. That mudfossil guy really thinks that mountains are petrified dragons eating fish and that egyptian statues are petrified giants??????
I'd love to see that!
@@TheStarviking ua-cam.com/video/5X4bQOnpETA/v-deo.html
@@kayleighllyn8253 that is legit a dragon. It was literally put on an ancient map
@@kayleighllyn8253 you know giants were in museums in the early 1900s right? They took them all out. They were constantly in news papers also. Not everyone needs to be right about everything, but I promise you this... Roger is far more intelligent than you.
Congrats to the winners!
Wearing a tin bell seems to work for bears in North America. Why not for seals in New Zealand? 😃
Great idea!! Im in nz, haver never been out of nz. Was down south once and nearly stood on a resting leopard seal, those boys are big! I got the fright of my life!
You guys have some awesome fossils over there! You said it's quite warm 27° I'd freeze to death lol. Florida fossil guy here. Great video.
I’m sure he meant it as 27°c. I done the conversion online and it says that that would be roughly 80.6°f for us. ☺️ I’d never consider 27°f as warm, that’s definitely way to cold for my liking 😂
Awesome! Thanks so much!
Well done to the winners, Nice video as well 👍
Just discovered your channel. Am a fossil liver myself. Love your content and subbed.
Yay thanks Kayleigh!
Your channel appeared today to me randomly. I am already addicted.
Excellent, thanks for sharing 🕊 the large rock with all the `worms` looks like a giant, petrified heart, the worms being veins 🤍
I'd be so frustrated not being able to collect that rib cluster! What will happen to them? such a shame if they're left to erode away
What a cool beach. Love it!
Another great video! I always get excited when you find another crab!! There seems to be a good number of species and the preps you do are truly fantastic!
Wow Mamlambo what a find those Whale 🐳 ribs were ,pity you couldn’t get them back to prep.💪💪
We are at a Perfect time in History, as mud covering so many sites for so long is finally being washed away , revealing Giants, Cities, endless Mystery Creatures lost to what most only believed as Mythology yet now being shown as Thruth... Amazing Discoveries all around us...
BIG congrats to the winners of the crab!!!!!!
You need a camel to carry the larger pieces. I've gone "fossiling" with my brother in Indiana looking for coral, etc from the inland sea. Most fun ever!
Camel?? 🤣 Good suggestion, but i honestly doubt if there has ever been a camel in NZ, ever, lol.
I saw a huge tooth! Watch again love the finds of the past.
Thank you for the education & hello from across the ditch
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
I'm in North Carolina USA and I never see anything older than Native American points, besides rocks. I'll keep watching your videos, maybe I'm just overlooking fossils but I'm not sure they're in clear sight here
There are very few fossils in the East because of the acidic soil. You can find shark teeth down on the coast but that's about it, other than Cambrian and Ordovician fossils in limestone.
Those ribs are awesome! I wonder how many people have walked past that and not thought twice about it? That would be a hell of a prep job! Thanks for sharing it!
You should bring a wide tired wagon with you. Something that won't get stuck in the sand too easily.
A nice channel, and nicely done.
I LOVE these videos !
Have to go back with a boat for those ribs. Something with a crane and a winch. Still frozen here in northern Ct can’t wait to get out
Very cool! Thank you.
My pleasure!
Another great video. I was wondering how far you have to drive to get to those fossil areas? I would have to drive at least 3 to 4 hours one way to get to a good fossil spot here in South Carolina U.S.A. ..I think I will just watch your videos .
I like it
I can understand fossilized bones in concretions or sedimentary rock, but those rocks appear to be very hard formed by volcanic means. Because they are all large and smooth, shows that despite a long time in wave action, they haven't broken apart.
BTW, love the passion. Thanks for this..
I grew up around fossil and arrow head hunting. I want to point out to people, that a case full of arrow heads isn't really impressive. A photo album of them where you found and left them is just as good. Maybe you should just keep the really cool one's but still document it.
We have the tech now. Good phone's with good photo's in the field. The only tools i've taken home were crude scrapers and that's because i actually still use them as scrapers.
As a archaeologists documenting is always good to see, it helps presve the information
Utterly intriguing. Start a Museum. Cut a couple in half and have a good look. Put them on display. Everyone should see this. Good luck.
DAAANGGG GREAT FIND
How would you like your ribs, sir?
Rare, medium, well done, or fossilised over 50 million years?
If you ever decide to put the money into going for those ribs, I would certainly donate!
I'm going to Corpus Christi in Texas in march and my partner promised we're going to look for fossils... Hope I have your kind of luck!
I’m not sure what was more entertaining your video or reading all the comments
Would it be easier to hunt for the fossils at night(or early evening) with a UV Light ?
Great video enjoyed well done
Thanks so much mate!
Not all bones found on the beach are from present day whales or from ancient fish… some giant bones are also human bones that predates the era of the great flood.
Nice finds.
Nice finds ,, a good day 👏👏👏
Nice . Man u have to go back for that whale with a few friends to help. Looks like it would be a epic piece
Thank you My brother these is very interesting thank you very much
Dude you seriously need a drop front ramp boat, so you can beach it and get your large finds. 😁
So how do you plan to recover a fossil that size? Can you get a boat up to it at high tide?
Your education prevents you from seeing what your looking at.
Thank you
May I ask how the bones get into a rock? Is that something that happens underwater with mud and debris and heat and compression. How do whale bones get into a place that gets hot and compressed? How do rocks get made? I have been watching a guy on you tube that shows rocks that clearly look like old trees. Have I not been told something?
I made a video of it: ua-cam.com/video/MazOeBDnfHc/v-deo.html
@@MamlamboFossils thank you very much for your efforts
@@MamlamboFossils so if the fatty acids react with calcium in the water and begging to calcify the crab. How do rocks get made without a pre cursor of fatty acids. How many types of rocks are there? I am sorry I guess I need to do my own research. Thank you for making me so curious 🤨
Is there any way you can take a small boat to these locations so you don’t have to walk so far or carry all that so far?
Nice thanks for a great video two thumbs
There were 2 grey rocks at the same spot as your first fossil. Just down & 2 the left with white markings. I just knew that was what you were reaching for.
I yelled into the phone ...pick up that piece of red Jasper!!
You really need to start a FoundMe to buy a Mech Suit and can get these rocks to home
YOU NEED THIS ONE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Greetings from divide CO
Nice video
Thanks so much!
I wonder if a quad bike and trailer would aid in the hunting and recovery? Should save on physical wear and tear. Also increase return rates. Love the beach expeditions.✌😃
Not going to try to put that 1.5 m fossil rib bone rock in your backpack and hike back 2 hours up a cliff to your car? Disappointing! Hahahaha...great find though!
....mmmm...yes....great job brother.......
Could the large whale bone containing boulder be floated out? It’s very difficult too let go of such a specimen…
That would have been some ribs and bbq sauce back in the day
If you wanted too, could you chip away the stone and reveal the fossil?
We have beaches like that. All I seem to see, are shells and ammonites 👍
Yip you could. I do that in some of the other videos
Some beautiful country.
Thanks Kevin! It really is!
i half expected you to roll that cluster all the way back lol. did you gps tag it?
Yeah, and I've sent the coordinates to the museum in case they want to organize a helicopter 😀
Rocks are fossilized bones that rings a new reality lol
Calcification, petrification. says a lot about the ancient megalith buildings that where once submerged under water, obviously not carved from rock.
LOL no. And "where" and "were" are different words with different meanings.
@@slappy8941 lol, woo hoo, a spelling mistake, it’s hardly comparable to what you claim is not true when it obviously is.
Wise up.
That guy needs a cameraman
Buy my plane ticket & ill do it for free
