Digging a Pile of Megalodon Teeth
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 бер 2023
- We never know what we are going to find when we go digging for megalodon teeth. Sometimes we come home with nothing. Sometimes we only find broken stuff. But on rare occasions, we have a day like today when we are finding big shark teeth left and right and they are all in decent shape. The layer where we find megs is not consistent because everything was shuffled around and deposited by flowing water. Just a few feet can make all the difference between a nothing day and a bag filler. We were on a hot layer band today and it was stuffed with goodies. The megalodon teeth were almost in a pile! I'll let the video do the talking today because it was a GREAT day digging.
5:08 had to be the funniest moment for me out of all your videos haha. 10/10 voice acting
I do love the megs and Angies!!!❤
what a way to finish the vid. Love the sharp angle on the root of the beast. Especially like the great white as well. Also makes me miss the old days at PCS pulling out teeth that *didnt* get beaten by the currents.
thanks man! this layer smelled just like PCS. its hard not to think of that place!
Wow, beautiful megs, sweet finds!!
thank you!
I’m glad someone is finding those things. Can’t lie I’d love to find one myself
thanks for watching!
@@blackriverfossils shark teeth are very easy to find but do not break a shark tooth
Omg what a dream site!!
5.58 inches long megalodon tooth dang dude awesome find this one is the 5th biggest megalodon tooth ever in this collection in the UA-cam videos
its a pie plate man!
@@blackriverfossils oh
@@jtsmith5903 not a literal pie plate - its so big you could put a piece of pie on it
@@blackriverfossils oh cool
Been a subscriber for a while...love it! I have a single large (6") meg tooth a buddy of mine collected diving off S Carolina...
thanks for watching and for the sub! those divers find great stuff but they go in really touch spots they deserve it
I can understand why people in ancient times believed these to be from dragons.
me too. i wonder what the Native Americans thought they were? I know they used them but I have no idea if there was any associated lore.
@@domainmojo2162 Dragons don't exist so you can't really have an expectation of how their teeth would look.
I see they don't teach logic in school anymore. I think maybe modern humans are dumber.
Also never expected a meg from that site would have the quality pf that 5"5/8 one. Always getting it done thanks for sharing
we were just as shocked to see a tooth like that come from there. almost everything else was devastated. thanks for watching!
Lucky you!!
Thank you.
Smoker cusps oh my! 😍💥
I am so happy for both of you, to find those awesome teeth!
thank you!
Wow! what a Ripper that big Meg is. nice
sure is! Thanks 👍
Great whites are my favs! What an amazing day, congrats!!
we love gws too! thanks for watching and for your comment!
Unbelievable teeth. Definitely looks like a Scuba day. WTG.
thanks man!
That was awesome to watch ❤️
thanks for watching!
Absolutely huge finish! Around how long would you say you were out there? And gracious, how do you pick your sites!
this was probably 8 hours of digging over a couple of days at a spot. we explore and hunt where we can. its hard sometimes to find a spot.
For real how any mountain sport or had to be by the ocean Mounts ? I
What state are you in? Where would one look for teeth?
I'm in South Carolina near Charleston, but shark teeth can be found all over the place, even in states you would never think of like Kansas. Megalodon teeth, the big ones, are found along the coastal plain of the eastern US from Maryland south through Florida.
wow exciting video many thanks
thanks for watching!
absolutely amazing! where is this spot your digging? hopefully going to pass thru SC ive been itching to fossil and shark teeth hunt!
this spot was near Charleston. Good luck on your visit & thanks for watching!
Do you ever organize tours? If not, you should consider it!
@@FSUgrad no i don't do tours because I'm just an amateur collector. Thanks for the compliment!
You caught the dying moments. I would feel honored to find this amazing find.
absolutely! Thanks for watching and for your comment!
Looking Good!
thanks!
@@blackriverfossils Morning, I have a question and would love to correspond. When I go on the Black river fossils site and go into Contact us, to whom should I direct my message? Thanks.
@@ChesapeakeBayBrian399 choose dw from the list, but I think it is not working. i'm rebuilding that site now to fix all the stuff that is broken. you can email me at ditchweezil at blackriverfossils dot org
Where was this at, or at least what type of area.. random creak near beach, construction near beach, etc???
it was near charleston sc, about 20 miles from the beach
Man! 👍👏🥇🏆
Cool finds! Subbed
thanks for the sub!
What a find. For those who believe in dragons. I would LOVE to believe they were real❤
dinosaurs are close and they were real!
What is the LOCATION/S of where to find teeth?!?!? I'm visiting S.C. soon and would love to spend a day searching but idk where to look.
Summerville, SC once was a primordial ocean. GoogleMachine the location, not too far from Charleston .
This answer maybe too late for your question this time, but maybe not too late for next visit.
bonjour de la France, magnifique , félicitations
Merci d’avoir regardé!
Do you know if there are places to find these in Alabama?
You can definitely find fossil shark teeth in Alabama but I'm not certain whether there are megalodon teeth.
Where do you sale ?
I’m from North Carolina do you know of any good places to find shark teeth there
you can find them in a creek called Greensmill Run in Greenville. You can also find them in the spoil piles in front of the Aurora Fossil Museum brought in from the PCS Phosphate mine in Aurora. There are beaches also, but I'm not sure exactly which ones. Many of the rivers in the east also have fossils but you'll need to scuba dive there. I'm sure there are countless other places also, NC is rich with fossil history. Best of luck to you!
Thank you
wow,i'm jealous 👌😁
it was a superb hunt i wish they all turned out that great!
A W E S O M E 👏 👏
LORD, keep blessing this man with finds. Amen 🙏
Where the heck are you finding these at? I MUST know lol
its near charleston south carolina.
Goodgob😮
And we paying so much money and this guy just digging them easy
its not always this easy - this is a really good spot.
what place did you go to find the shark teeth?
it is near Charleston, South Carolina
@@blackriverfossils what place specifically
@@gorillagaming1105 I do t think he’s giving up his spots
What states in the US have the most Meg teeth?
MD, VA, NC, SC, GA, and FL are all well-stocked with Megalodon teeth.
So how do you tell the difference between a great white tooth and a megalodon tooth
megalodon teeth are usually much larger, so there is some size overlap but the the most noticeable feature that differentiates them for me is the much larger bourlette enamel between the root and blade on the display side of megalodon teeth. also called a chevron, its thick and V shaped on megs and barely there on great whites.
@@blackriverfossils thanks for explaining i always wondered what was the difference between them also wheres the best place to look for them cause im curious about that as well cause my nephew loves sharks & i thought it’d be cool one day to try to find a big one for him
What an awesome hunt👏👏!! The GW was incredible and the large mako is close to the elusive 3". Thank you for sharing I do appreciate it.
thanks i am really happy with this hunt!
For how much do u sell one and how to purchase?
i am just an amateur collector so i don't sell my finds. thanks for watching my video!
@@blackriverfossils i search and collect baltic amber. An exchange maybe?
@@tomaszkwiecien8591 i have a collection of baltic amber from trading with another collector many years ago, but thank you for the offer anyway!
good 😃2
I wanted to find these since I was a kid...50 plus years now.
i've been addicted to hunting them for a lifetime, I definitely understand the appeal. good luck to you when you decide to give it a go.
@@blackriverfossilsThanks! A buddy and I are probably gonna give it a go in May.
@@jeffschultz732 that's awesome i hope y'all make some great discoveries!
need to head down there and dig wit ya
i'm wishing you luck when you get your shot at SC
Where is this
near Charleston South Carolina
Dang bro I wanna hit that spot. You killed me this weekend
remember i am behind on my posts still so this was still a while back. i might never catch up!
Hell I was finding them in there the other day
not the same spot but similar layer
Meg teeth look like teeth to me. But, if someone of stature back in ancient times told me they were from dragons, id pribably believe them. That is why you should look into things we are not quite sure of...😊
back in ancient times they used to call fossil shark teeth "tongue stones". They didn't know what they were but they resembled tongues made of rock. it wasn't until the 1600s that someone noticed how similar shark teeth were to those, but they didn't know anything about fossilization. Its very interesting how knowledge is gained over time!
@@blackriverfossils I have also heard that as well...
Be careful not to break them 😅
I'm always as careful as I can be in a hobby where it is commonplace to swing mattocks and throw hundreds of pounds of dirt with a shovel in pursuit of the prize.
Hi good morning good luck...
good morning and thank you!
Anyone else thinking that mud at the start looks delicious?
Do you happen to take people out to dig?
i'm just an amateur collector so I don't guide tours. thanks for watching!
Do you sell teeth??
no i am just a collector
@@blackriverfossilsyou could sell the bad ones we want the bad ones lol
Your favourite animal ?
its hard to pick a favorite animal because there have been so many awesome ones over time, but I will say I search for shark fossils the most so they have to be near the top of the list
this guy stole everything from someone
CAN YOU PLS GIVE ME A MEG TOOTH I LIKED AND SUBED AND IM A FQN I LOVE MEG TOOTHS
