+blackriverfossils i want to find some shark tooth but korea have no shark tooth so please can you send me some big megs and some whale tooth please send me
I love seeing the inprint in the sand after you dig up a big megalodon tooth. Its very satisfying. Thanks for the great videos. Im a new subscriber, i ran across your channel somehow it came up in my feed and ive been watching your videos back to back now. Keep them coming, i like everyone ive watched. Goodluck on finding that big 6 inch megalodon!
Dragon 555 I've been to that creek - its a good spot. One of my friends found a 5 inch megalodon tooth there! I thought he was going to have a heart attack too.
@@blackriverfossils I hope you and friends are safe from this storm. Maybe once it is past new material will be available for searching. So you look during colder weather?
@@para1324 thanks. we will go out and look but there wasn't as much rain as we thought it was going to be. we will hunt land sites all year around when they are available, we just don't dive in the winter.
I wonder where you are searching for these fossils. Iam from sweden and I would like to spend my holiday hunting for megs. Any ideas at sweet places with almost guaranteed funds?
johan gustafsson I am also from sweden and i would Love that to, but do you now Some other places i sweden where it is posible to go to? I mean, the only plays that I can travel to is "ivö klack", can you Please help!?
K -- what a great show of the time you had out there! Stellar! I needed to stop at 9:00 but I will circle back tomorrow! I am still floored... as I have heard some say of me with artifacts and points... in the fantastic volume you have been able to locate. Would you say it has been a really self-taught understanding as to how you locate them?? Have you thought that those many Meg teeth might be sometimes off the same shark? Thanks again! Keep moving forward! Ben
Indian Trace could go either way. our formations have been washed around by the ocean so its possible that the teeth tumbled some distance before coming to rest where we found them. it is also possible that the reformulation was not chaotic and the teeth are associated. either way they have found good homes now!
Superb video, really enjoyed seeing how the Meg tooth I bought here in the UK is excavated in the US and the conditions they are found in, can you recommend any websites for identifying fossil sharks teeth ?
This is a good place! I can stay here for one whole day! Now whenever I see the shark teeth, my eyes will shine! Of course it would be better if there were trilobite fossils! I like to collect these things! These are better than the best Longquan swords!
Neat, thanks! :D How do you know that? Professional, or hobbyist? :) In the Ozarks (Buffalo River area) there are tons of arrowheads pop up after a good rain.
I actually have a weird arrowhead that looks like it's old but I don't know what style it is. Can you help? It looks like it's a diamond shape that's wide and thick with what looks like the bottom part of a triangle connected at the bottom.
Offtrailed Dino I've tried a spade in the past but i couldn't get it into the formation. the rocks are compacted so the only way we've found to effectively do it is a screwdriver to dig in between the gravel.
@@blackriverfossils Have you tried a gardening rake? I cringe every time I see you dig into the fossil with the screwdriver.

You know what is good for this? The first digging not the finishing aroind things) are a drum break took (stretches the springs) and a little forked weed puller helper thing. (bent a little at the end of a slender spade handle kind of.
+Alexander Huijsmans thank you! I did not take material from this site to search for micros but I have from others. The formation at this site was reformulated many times so its not the best to search for tiny teeth. We have an oligocene deposit here called the Chandler Bridge that has never been disturbed since it was the ocean bottom and that is the one I search.
I see you go to land sites in summerville and I was wondering if you have to pay to get in or how you get in? I am taking a trip down to summerville soon and i really want to find a huge tooth, so I wasn't sure where to go that is why I have so many questions. thank you
Oh my goodness...this is just absolutely incredible!!! I've never seen anything like it! I'm amazed at how many giant teeth you found! Gorgeous coloring on the artifact...beautiful point!!!
When was this hunt? I was just there and I wish I stumbled across a place like these. I wasted more time hunting for s viable location rather than hunting for teeth! This is absolutely incredible!
I was out there searching like crazy! I was trying to find the correct layer to look through but never ran into some nice teeth only some small ones and pieces :(
I live right off of Ladson road and have know idea where your spot is! I love hunting for sharks teeth but never have luck like this. Any spot suggestions??
+MarkedbyMistakes i jump down in almost every hole in the ground I see. Most of them are worthless but once in a while, I find a spot like this. there is always a danger when you get down into a hole that the edge can collapse though so you have to be careful.
+Cujucuyo i'll check that out - i've tried all kinds of things over the years to limit damage to the teeth but they are so fragile and the formation is so hard it is next to impossible.
blackriverfossils Try it, it really is great for digging without damaging your finds, I use one for metal detecting: www.jimmysierra.com/tools_treasurescoopC.html - You could also get a Ball Tipped Coin Probe instead of a screwdriver, the ball tip won't do damage if you accidentally scrape your find, specially with teeth enamel.
+Cujucuyo It looks like plastic. I see why that would be ideal for detecting but we are digging in a compacted gravel formation that is commonly as hard as asphalt. Sometimes we can't even get unto it with a sledge hammer and pry bar.
+Mr.PlushWinner I've been collecting my whole life so I've seen a lot of teeth. I just know what they are through reading, talking to others, and experience.
It's amazing to watch you guys work your trade. I guess you have to have that trained eye to spot that one edge barely peeking out. I subbed today. You guys are awesome.
I was born and raised in Summerville. My siblings and I use to find all sorts of sharks teeth, tons of Megalodon teeth. The Ashley River ran through our property. It's been a long time since I've been fossil hunting. I'd love to do it again sometime. Do you know any good places to go in the upstate? I live in Landrum now (Exit 1 on I26). Cheers!- Wulf
+LycanthropicArt you grew up in a great place! Unfortunately I don't know any places in the upstate to collect, though there are surely fossils to be found there. Happy hunting!
Dude , good luck getting somebody to give you that info . I’ve been asking for years about info like that and Indian artifacts and the best I get is look for water 🤦🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Personally for digging them out I'd use a spoon instead of a screwdriver just because it'd be easier it get dirt of it but also it reduces the risk of damage if you get underneath it
blackriverfossils huh interesting what about using something like there's this thing that's a blackhead remover but it's got a tiny hook shape so I guess maybe using one of those or something similar to that would work or not I mean you guys do this a lot
CORRECTS YOU great question! There are two ways I know of. If it was a break a long time ago, the color will be consistent across the entire tooth whereas a recent break will be a different color because the interior of the fossil will show. Also, a recent break will be rough, sharp on the edges, and sometimes jagged or sharp because it won't have had any time to wear naturally.
Phat fossils, learn from Black river fossils. See these guys go out to find the gems in the rough. You just buy it and put it on display. Have you ever been out exploring? It's not child's play. I know. Greetings from South-Africa Black River Fossils.
yes the ocean level used to be much higher than it is now. giant sharks lived where I live now. they lost their teeth and i am finding them on the prehistoric ocean bottom.
Holy shit.... thats insane... I actually live on the AirForce base here in Charleston... Had no clue people are finding fucking giant shark teeth around here.....
One would think that when you dig these babies out of the muck that you'd use a plastic or wooden prod, and not a metal screw driver to avoid scratching things up. BTW, what are these teeth worth on the open market? Is there $$$ to be made in this field?
At a good site I'll go as often as I can and dig until I have blisters, usually hours at a time. Good sites are only accessible for a short window of time, usually only a couple days at most.
Is it just me or when dirt rips off like how they are digging is SOOOO SATISFYING!
Ikr!
dude that screwdriver should never touch the tooth!!
@Zaiden Mario bot
@Rogelio Lewis oh andddd, bot.
I like theses videos because i can pause and see if I can find it before you pull it out. Keep up the great vids!

Oh my goodness where are you guys at, like where at in summerville
Love the video, that is a great digging spot you have there.
I love your videoes
have you tried a 1/2" wood chisel, seem like you need something wider , enjoyed your videos.
that would probably be tough enough but it needs a tip to be able to dig in between the rocks. a bull point chisel would do the job.
I suggest you guys to use a spade to dig the tooth out!
It's my little advise, because I saw you guys were having a difficulty to awl the tooth out.

Is there any beaches in California where theres shark teeth or any fossil?
UltraCakePlays i don't know, sorry. the only place I have ever collected in CA was Bakersfield
Thank you very very much!
Killer finds!
your teeth are so cool
Personally for digging them out I'd use a spoon instead of a screwdriver just because it'd be easier it get dirt of it but also it reduces the risk of damage if you get underneath it
a spoon would work in some spots, but in most areas the formation is hard so a spoon would bend if you tried to dig with it.
blackriverfossils huh interesting what about using something like there's this thing that's a blackhead remover but it's got a tiny hook shape so I guess maybe using one of those or something similar to that would work or not I mean you guys do this a lot
Why are you guys only finding teeths?
Is this in Dorchester Creek or Sawmill Branch?
neither. but it was down the road from there.
was that and arrow head ?
Y'all need a Missouri wiggle pick to dig those out
How do you tell the difference between a tooth that was damaged before fossilization, and after?
CORRECTS YOU great question! There are two ways I know of. If it was a break a long time ago, the color will be consistent across the entire tooth whereas a recent break will be a different color because the interior of the fossil will show. Also, a recent break will be rough, sharp on the edges, and sometimes jagged or sharp because it won't have had any time to wear naturally.
