Digging for Lightning Strike Summerville Megalodon Teeth
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 кві 2016
- I consider myself fortunate anytime I find a location able to produce megalodon teeth. But every every once in a while, I find a spot that produces the lightning strike teeth and I go crazy. I hunt as much as I possibly can because I know it won't last long. A couple of days maybe, at best. There is no waiting in this hobby - to get the teeth, I have to go when they can be found. If I wait, they could be re-buried and the chance to find them lost forever. I took every opportunity to collect this location and everyone who I ran into there was just as focused as me. I saw a bunch of other nice teeth from here and they were all unique - colorful, patterned, beautifully preserved. True Summerville gems! Now its back to the research and exploration. Gotta find a new spot to go digging for shark teeth.
Beautiful teeth, I love watching you find them. Thank you so much for filming you finding them. Good luck Mary-Ellen UK

That first tooth dude was just gorgeous!!!
Awesome finds!!!
When I recently visited the low country of the Somerville area EVERYONE I asked permission of allowed me access. That doesn't mean I found teeth but people are generally nice IF you ask. If you dont ask they are not quite as pleasant.
+John H That has generally been my experience too
nice man luv ur vids keep em up
WOW 😲😳😳😲 Thunder Tooth....😍😍😍 Can I have One...✌️🤣
That was a great explaination write up! It is the same indeed for the artifacts I secure! Just 72 hours ago I busted to get through a prelim Archaic site and found a couple stellar points (on video)... and today the very same site was turned into rows for agriculture! There would have been no promise of any return from these artifacts... and this is a common thing. I hope you are well Bud! My son Andrew (15) LOVED the meg you traded me... and I loved gifting it to him. It was so perfect to see the orange meg come out at :30! Again a meg at 1:30... fantastic job guys! What you have been able to accomplish in teeth has been exceptional.
beatiful! God I'm jealous! you are a shark tooth god
Hey blackriverfossils do u know any place in New Hampshire for fossils like shark teeth
Cool teeth!
Beautiful teeth!
Why is this so satisfying
Where are you finding these teeth I have been looking and not finding any!
Can you describe the general vicinity? Small creeks off Dorchester Creek? Sawmill?
within a few miles of there
where and how do u do this?
-Tyler
Do you have to pay to dig in Summerville?
where do u fossil hunt like in constructions sites like where
Is that in Washington?
Where do you find these
May you please make a video of all of your teeth and fossils?
Hi blackriverfossils! I'm in NY and was wondering if you know any good digging sites for a newbee like myself?
I appreciate it.
Hi Happy, sorry I don't know any public locations in New York for fossil hunting. I do know your state fossil is the eurypterid, also known as the sea scorpion, so maybe that's something you could search for. a place called Lang's Quarry produces and sells them, but there might be other locations where you can find them. Happy hunting!
+blackriverfossils where do you find these
+CrazypupMaster Queen. at the struck of a thunder or lightning
how much megalodon teeth do you have
Great Video! I travel below the fall line sometimes to hunt for teeth and my question is how to you gain access to all these different locations? Do you know the owner or just chance it?
+Kalebh Withers thanks! Public spots I just go but I ask permission from the owner or whoever is in charge at the private spots.
I have thunder teeth, embedded inside my body, it protects you. Ihave 3 kinds, sometimes when Im hitt with sharp objectd it doesnt bleed me because of this
ngipin nang pating yan bobo
Chunky teeth in the gray sand! NICE cut. I need a new site.
I live on top of the Cretaceous-Aged Tuscaloosa Group in Lee County, AL, and it looks promising but not much to it, reportedly. Theres a museum in Montgomery with a case of shark teeth found in Lee County, but for the most part, all the good stuff is near the MS border or down in FloriBama. Still keeping an eye out though, wish theyd just surface like they do in SC
we have actually hunted there, believe it or not. we were looking for dinosaurs but did not find any. Found plenty of the cretaceous oysters though, so they have to be there somewhere.
Are you in a Quarry? Where are you
Sawmill Branch Canal system?
Asking the same. Did you ever find out?
Are lightning strike teeth named for their color or did a bolt of lightning struck the tooth? I'm not sure.
they are called that because of the color patterns in the teeth that look like lightning strikes. They usually come from tree roots leaching minerals from the fossil.
blackriverfossils Oh, I thought lightning struck the tooth in a storm, really great find.
wish i could dig meg teeth out of the mud like that :( i live in ohio
nice i know what lightning strike is but what are lightning strike teeth?!?
+BlueToothless it is a tooth with color patterns that resemble lightning strikes
So jealous. Spent three day trips on the Peace River and only got three megs, the biggest being 3 inches, and a bunch of horse teeth, whale vert, and one whale tooth but nothing like this. I need to go to the Carolinas.
i like collecting shark tooth but korea has no shark tooth fossil so can you give me one please
W8 im confused.. is it a shark teeth or a thunder tooth?
it is a shark tooth. i said "lightning" because of the color patters on the teeth.
hey where the hell are u i need to know
I have been look for megs for ever and then you just find them kinda jealous lol
How can u tell what type of shark tooth it is, I swear that's awsome
i can tell what type each tooth is because different species sharks have distinctly shaped teeth, for the most part. i've been doing this my whole life and I've seen a lot of shark teeth.
Is there anywhere to find fossil teeth near outer banks, NC ?
+PhillEchEzsteak i'm sorry i don't know any places to collect near there.
emerald isle or atlantic beach. I have a new fossil hunting channel and will be uploading videos in about a week or so! Thanks Black river fossils for all the videos!
Hello, I am a noob with fossils and I want to find them cuz it seems wery fun. So can you guys tell me something abaut fossils (best locations...)
venice beach in florida is known as the shark tooth capital of the world.
lusius kammel, i went to peace river and never got a tooth over 1.5 inches. u r lucky.
Some of them are actually great whites:)
The shark gods smiled upon you this day.
man you all are lucky i live in Navarre Florida. i can only find like 1 or 2 bull shark teeth. i wish you could send me a megladon tooth just so i could have one.
what is a lightning strike tooth?
+Jeremiah Cullen it is a tooth with color patterns that resemble lightning strikes.
can i get a megladon tooth
Can normal people come by and get these
not any more. this spot is no longer open, sorry.
So close to 6,000!
Do you sell these?
+AdinPlays no i'm sorry I don't sell the teeth I find.
+blackriverfossils thanks :)
I wish i could go fossil hunting:(
Your videos are amazing and I love what things you find, but would it be possible to send me a megalodon tooth
what is an agerstine tooth
an angustidens tooth is a member of the giant white shark family that lived during the Oligocene. It is the evolutionary equivalent of the grandfather of the megalodon shark.
+blackriverfossils ok thanks next time you go can I come I live at 9 scotlandbank terrace Blackburn bb2 4ne
+blackriverfossils what is Oligocene please reply ( also I'm asking I don't know if I'm supposed to know but I don't know so yeah )
no worries man! the period of time between 34 million to 23 million years ago is known as the oligocene.
Would you guide a shark tooth hunt I love 1.5 hours from you in Myrtle. I've found two tiny ones in 37 yrs
+John Hi John Thanks for the message. I'm just a guy with a camera who really loves fossil hunting so I don't do tours but I do know someone in the lowcountry who does it. His name is Ashby and he operates the site chsfossiladventures.com. I think he could probably help you. Best of luck!
Thanks enjoy the vids
+blackriverfossils in NJ we never find megs but i sure do want one but there is a site an hour or so away from me
+blackriverfossils u should do giveaways
This mean the rest of the fossil should be near of the teeth?
+Arthur Rodrigues the geologic formation where I found these teeth has been reformulated, meaning the ocean has eroded the fossils from their original sediments and then redeposited them, so any other associated remains have been dis-articulated long ago.
+blackriverfossils Thanks for the answer.
But I find strange when paleontologists discovers fossils in regions without water that seems haven't passed enough changes to this happen (Like Lucy and our ancestors in Africa deserts for example) assuming that definitely they must had also a mother, partner, son and the bones of others from the same specie should be founded in the same region when we find one, because they lived near, but strangely this seems impossible, as if was necessary to be buried quickly after death and when bones are exposed to sunlight for thousands of years, they could be corroded in air and the evidence was completely lost. Do you already read something about this?
+Arthur Rodrigues it is necessary to be buried quickly for a fossil to form. scavengers scatter bones and the elements destroy them before they can fossilize. Very few remains actually are preserved as fossils.
Why cant you pull the teeth out its 0:06
+Leilani Williams because when some of the teeth like that one first came out of the dirt at this spot they are very soft. if I pulled the dirt off before the tooth was dry, I risked breaking the tooth.
Oh ok
Why are you so annoyed when you find a megladon tooth that is a little bit chipped, if I found something like that I would be jumping around and laughing for 3hours straight.
hey I know you know thks but the huge megaladon teath you find are acttullay females fun fact female sharks are bigger than male shark most of the time
The big teeth are great whites. A megalodon tooth is the size of ahead of an 8 year old kid
No they are not the size of an eight year olds head... They are as big as and 8 year olds HAND
can you give it to me please
I caught that fish and ate him for lunch. LOL
😆
Live
stop saying meg
That sound hurts my ears
And it's very annoying
When I recently visited the low country of the Somerville area EVERYONE I asked permission of allowed me access. That doesn't mean I found teeth but people are generally nice IF you ask. If you dont ask they are not quite as pleasant.
