He fairly gets about eh? Well done Mikey boy B-)
Awesome! I love English Bulldogs too. The one in the photo is my bully "Bucky". It's really cool that you two are helping to keep Griffin's memory alive. :-)
Yea
38:30 You cut your leg pretty good there. I've been wondering why do you wear shorts for this type of work?
I found the answer to the destroyed clothes and other items that stores throw out. They can claim a deduction for the merchandise thru I R S but all items must be destroyed. The deduction they get is more than a charitable donation deduction. Such a shame, so many people could really use these things.
Common sense would have it the other way around!
Mike is a social networking realist his comments are both informative and hilarious and the speed that he focuses on with the task at hand in each dumpster is fascinating and entertaining love the player not the negative reviews sayers
Mike, la "Pasta Frola" es un postre en mi país Argentina!!! Me sorprendió mucho ver las cajas ahí!!! Te veo siempre!!! Un abrazo desde Buenos Aires, Argentina!!!
Omg!! You make me and my daughter laugh so much.. the huge cabinet in the small dumpster was hilarious.. the couldn't find a smaller dumpster...🤔🤣😂😃😂.
You're so much fun.. thanks... for the scrappity scrap.....
Pasta frola (Greek: Πάστα Φλώρα),[1] is a type of sweet tart common to Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay, Egypt and Greece.[2][3] It is a covered, jam-filled shortcrust pastry dish principally made from flour, sugar and egg.[4] Common fillings include quince cheese, dulce de batata (sweet potato jam), dulce de leche, guava, or strawberry jam.[1] The covering of the tart is a thin-striped lattice which displays the filling beneath in square sections. Pastafrola is most usually oven-baked in a circular shape. Most of the Greek versions of this dish are filled with sweet jam: it was considered a morning dessert.
The name of the dish comes from the Italian word for shortcrust pastry, and is similar to the Crostata native to that country. The spread of the dish within Argentina and Uruguay is connected to extensive Italian immigration to the region.[5] Other similar European dishes include the Austrian Linzer torte and Swiss tarts with a spiced-fruit filling.[6]
The dish is served as an afternoon dessert (merienda) or with mate (a South American drink), but may be eaten at any time of the day.[6]
Ingredients
The ingredients for the dish are:[7][8]
Flour
Egg
Sugar
Butter or margerine
Jam filling (most common are quince, sweet potato jam, dulce de leche, guava, or strawberry)
Lemon zest
Vanilla extract
It said "Con Membrillo", I looked it up with Google Translator, it's quince. hmm.. I've never had quince. Wonder if I'm allergic?
Mike: What we got here y'all? little scrapitty scrap,,,,
Scrap: no I'm not scrap I'm paper.
Mike: your coming with me y'all
Scrap: he knows I'm not paper,,,
Mike: works for me. Owwwwww....
Love giving back to people, me and my gf found a craftsman edger like the commercial grade and donated to a baseball team!
It drives me crazy how far behind you guys are with recycling. Cardboard is a commodity here in Canada. Every drink container is 10 cents in your jeans (where i live it but that can also vary from one region to the next). Companies make $$$ from cardboard. I love dumster diving but the cops would be on you so fast its just not worth it. Im amazed how you can drive around in peace. Im sure you've had your share of problems too.
I've just binged watched through all your dumpster diving videos. Love them all
You are like an ADH child ! I love watching you on dumpsters !!
He will bleed out when he servers a artery, having ADH and not wear pants or long sleeves leaping were only animals go into.
@@canadianmade9047 t is not funny to make fun of people with special needs
@@larrykinder5353 everything should be open to humor as long as no malice is intended, and clearly there was no malice in his comment! We need to get our sense of humor back and get over ourselves!
Dude you make my day go by so much easy !!! For what your doing here..... your a big inspiration to me with all your happiness and joy :)
I've been watching a lot of scavenger videos lately, and I'm baffled that its legal to throw fluorescent tubes in the ordinary trash in the US?! In my neck of the woods, they're considered Hazardous Waste, and must be handed in to a recycling station that can handle that kind of stuff.
@mister kluge Yeah I reckon there's different laws from state to state.
Here where I live (Northern Europe) it could cost you a huge fee if you throw hazardous waste in the ordinary trash dumpsters, because when the garbage companies goes the landfill or waste management stations, the content of their trucks are checked, and if the guys at the landfill/waste management stations finds hazardous waste in the truck,
they are rejected and forced to go home and sort the waste before they can get rid of it. It costs them a lot of money., and you - the owner of the dumpster - gets a huge fine/invoice, and they do not collect your trash again before you pay the bill!
That key fob is not for a Dodge Viper but for a Viper alarm system. Probably pretty valuable and a resellable item on eBay. And that keyboard probably has good resale value on eBay also. That hand cart is for moving refrigerators and heavy furniture. Pretty expensive too! Don't scrap it either keep it or sell it. Love the long videos!
Mike do not drive your wife crazy🙃
You know I love the dumpster diving videos.
Is your leg ok? Is your tetanus up-to-date?
Thanks for taking us along for the dive.
Have a great day.
Mike pull the flower off keep the cuttings put them in water till you see roots grow, then into pot of dirt and, see them grow.
UncleDave
they look like roses though, and while that might work with some cuttings like impatiens etc, wouldn't they be better with a little hormone rooting powder and put into a little sandy potting mix to root? although if they have dried out they will not take too well.
@@dragonmaddie My wife and I for the last 50 years have grown roses from cuttings, another thing I should have said is don't put any leaves in the water pull them off first.
@@uncledave630 well as i can only go 35 years experience with rose cuttings specifically, 20 of which as a professional gardener, and have never known anyone to put rose cuttings in water to root, due to that woody stem, i guess i shall bow to your greater knowledge, but still recommend a little rooting powder and a nice free draining soil.
@@dragonmaddie My wife and I found out it is a good thing to cut rose bush flowers off for the house but just for the bush we cut stems after the rose is falling apart off the bush. They never have wood on them just green stems and put them in water without the flower and no leaves in the water. Your rose bush will grow more flowers next time. And the cuttings will have little white roots then place in small pots or in ground.
UncleDave
@@uncledave630 ah i see so you avoid taking woody cuttings and use just the short green stems. for most rose cuttings i was taught to take are between 7 and 12 inches so avoiding taking woody cuttings is an impossibility. i guess i can see some logic in using just the fresh green growth. it is just not a method i have ever heard of nor one i have seen used commercially. most roses used for cut flowers are of a longer stemmed variety which usually means that stem is quite woody if you are going for a traditional length of cutting. some cultivars will not thrive outside of a greenhouse . depending on where you are of course. lol of course roses will grow more flowers, they thrive on being cut back hard. my first head gardener taught me, make them think you are killing them and they will flower better for you next year.
Love these longer video's. Great job of taking us on your adventures Mike.
56:19 I think the strap on the dolly is to hold large items on like appliances and such. Nice finds!
Anyone else notice how good his aim is
Some videos 😆
Hey Mike. You make my day!!! Your videos are awesome and funny all at the same time. Thank you!! Kerp up the great videos!
That 3 tiered shelf sells for $50. At Michael’s
no $79.00 bought one.
Mike I remember when you would scrape up or grab up a bunch of that new loose hardware. And snivets.
Hey Mike the Scavenger... I handle/lift/move around alot of heavy Window ACs/Portable ACs 😥 almost everyday at work.. when I do lift/carry them.. I can hear yah voice say . "YOU GOTTA BE STRONG" 💪😧 ... 😂 Thanks man! Watching you here in Hawaii 🤙
I'm ok...thanks for asking. For a minute I thought we were having a concussion. But just failed to watch your head....
they look like strange alfajores which is is a common treat in argentina by all. kinda like a big cookie usually filled with dulce de leche(condensed milk caramel) these ones are filled with quince which like a type of hard pear sweetened and used in different pastries. what a darn shame to waste when so many mouths could have been delighted. a delicacy in argentina, but i guess nobody there in texas gave them the time of day. a get rich quick scheme turned upside down and drown :( ❤️U mike
First to like,,,and watch,,go mike,,scrappity scrap scrap. You be careful out there,,,watch out for those bees,, raccoons, and cats meow. 2:58 I fell ouch....lol
Mike be doing his thing and the HUMAN guy do LIKE the scrap he find CODE 7412mc
Outro vídeo bom de mais adoramos teus vídeos aqui em casa um forte abraço de todos nois daqui fique com Deus
South American countries don't use a ton of sugar like we do here so yeah it will taste kinda flat to us.
Brand new office chair (that's scrape right there) lmfao
345 I was waiting for you to stomp on that cockroach 😂😂 looks like spaghettis for dinner tonight🤢🤢
50:36 Is it this one: www.viper.com/car/remotes/product/7756v/viper-premium-lcd-2-way-remote ?
Greetings Mike. You are definitely killing those treasures, yippee. That's right Dottie is hungry Lol. Take your time & be safe. Let's get @ it, we're in the truck. Nice cart for the wifey. Always be safe, healthy &blessed Mike.
55:51 those look like midi connectors so you could connect that to computer
Next time you find a big ole subwoofer camped out in one of those dumpsters, strip the magnet out of it and make your self a magnet stick for suckin up the scrap bits n what not. BE STRONG
Love watching you for an hour....thanks for the entertainment ....and Griffin.
Mice can U test all devices, U went to dumpster shop
As long as is organic it is good for mulch
That's the easiest way to get rid of Blue Balls...
11:37 I'd love to be there and see the face of the driver when he comes to pick up. Probably will just have the customer called to remove it.
54:40 When you connect something to DC power supply you should always check the polarity before connecting it.
The dance off with the cockroach was pure gold!
Aqui pon el dumpster, means
Put the dumpster here..
And yes they reverse the month and day.. so.. they're probably from 2018.. And I'm getting that didn't sell.. what a shame..
Oh and save the microwave dishes.. And rings..they sell..on eBay or yard sale...
Our own Griffin, a GSP, passed away in March.
Hey Mike you silly" always making me laugh lovin it..... keep it Rockin
Lol have my grandsons wanting to watch every one of your videos they love it and want to see how to take apart things you scrap. I have been taking my mobile home apart 🙃 this old woman does alot. Just can't sit still and it's good the next generation learns. Thank you for sharing.
Hey Tina, I’m also an old lady…I love watching Mike! If only I were as agile as he is! Anyway, it’s nice to see I’m not the only old lady around here…Take Care
Randy hay if your by your self having problems getting a refrigerator or anything up and in the truck use your ratchet straps to help you pull it up lean it up bring straps down around bottom back up other side ratcheting. It up
Simon from the UK here, I bet the homeless would love to eat them tarts. It makes me mad seeing food thrown out when there are people and children starving.
Easy money to all the scrap awesome.
Google tells me those are sweet cookies with quince jam. Someone must be clearing out a warehouse, though, that was a LOT of them.
They were expired since 2018
great dive please be careful out there we all think you are special MIKE IS # 1
Make cat sound 🐈 hahahah
You trying to get that phial out of the dumpster reminded me of Sam Wheat in Ghost trying to push the coin up the door.🤣
Mike: “...it’s just missing a screw!”
Mike the Scavenger: “...and I know just the dumpster to find it in!”
And FYI, there are people out there that make cannons designed just for launching bowling balls, just saying.
That backpack with the key in was probably stolen, stripped of pawnable items then tossed in the dumpster.
wonders how long it's gonna be before you're living in the storage unit when you start driving the wife nuts with that keyboard? lol
Mike: What ya Gona do where ya Gona Run. Cockroach: ohh Go away bro please dumpster dive
Hello, Mike!!! I want to suggest you use a neodymium magnet to collect small hardware and all sorts of details .... Regards, Alexander.
Could've sworn I saw a tiny little flicker of light when you first turned on the vacuum sealer.
That Dolly looks like a MAGLINER It's an $300.00 Dolly or Hand truck all day New. That fold down nose is for stacking boxes 2 deep or just hauling larger items. The yellow strap is for tying down your load to secure it. You can get $150 -$200 easy selling it to Any Mover, UPS driver, Pepsi, Coke, Beer, or Any other delivery worker. That was the best find. I hope you didn't just scrap it bro. If you still have keep it dude it is super light weight the first time you need to move a bunch of stuff you will be glad you did.
Me and my 8 year old son love the videos. He loves your catch line "scrappety scrap". Wondering when your gonna get you a shirt line that says that haha.
It says don't go in the dumpster in Portuguese on the ground
I go through withdraws when you don't post... post more man You guys are awesome.
The sealer may only operate when the arm is pressed down.
isn't it about time that the world starts paying to recycle plastic, Mike says "Oh my, scrappy scrap plastic! You're coming with me!" Think of how much plastic would come out of those dumpsters, then think about getting paid for cardboard, wood and drywall. Where I am we get .10 for aluminum cans and drink bottles and milk cartons.
Hi Mike, I don’t dumpster dive but I curb side collect with my pushbike. Last week I made $116 AUstralian dollars from one house alone. I don’t do scrap though. If there was an Olympic sport for dumpster you would get gold.
Mike cut it out your paycheck from UA-cam is probably at least $7,000 a month so with that man you can do some damage with a new truck make the payment every month just put down a little bit get you a dotty 2.0

Instead of nonchalantly saying scrapity-scrap, I would have said CRAPITY - CRAP!!!, if I had just found part of a motorcycle engine.
Thank you Mike! Great Scrap Run again! You will wife driving Crazy definitely...
To bad you didn’t have a big magnet to put in there and fish all that small metal up. Awfully big unit to cram into a dumpster there! Lol! See some scrap, pick it up, it will bring you lotsa luck! (and some money)
Donate to food pantries and homeless shelters. (The little pies)
I just want to smash the tub lights. They are soooo annoying. And the plastic is horrible. I just noticed you have ink. Awesome. I would take griffin to some fun places.
Mike please check out Canadian Treasure Hunter for a video titled over 100pounds of brass. The guy hit the mother lode but did a very poor job. You would have filled Dottie till her tires would have popped. I would have enjoyed you harvesting the booty.
Covid Game. Find that Title "I May Not Make It Out Alive" 41:57 Alright, Alright, Alright...yup.
like your channel but you tupe pops up an ad every 60 seconds sick of hitting skip ads realy driving people I know away from your channel sorry I'm worn out from the ads
Found two super sealers. An 18 inch retails for $345.00 and a 24 inch is $643.00. Looks like you are missing the heat gun for shrinking and a roll holder for the plastic. Also the part you have does not vac pump. It only cuts and seals the edge with heat.
I bought that same Milwaukee dolly and it is a crappy design. The pin system gave out and dropped a cabinet I was moving. I had to weld it my own plate and pin system to make it work. It's a POS.
Everyone ..drink when he says.."Ya'll"...wasted in 3 minutes....I don't think there's enough letters in the alphabet to diagnose him XD
Im happy to admit Mike, I am a UA-cam Scavenger now ... great content and great scavenges!! =0)
Yes old flowers and cuttings make good mulch. When I cut all my flowers and plants back I put them all in the pile. Or take raw potatoes and put the stem of a rose 🌹 in it to start a new plants 🪴 🤔 something to think about for your wife 🤔
It's funny they scrapped out of water heater and left the brass on it. Viper was for an aftermarket alarm and possibly remote start that was probably put on some Dodge vehicle not a Dodge Viper. Red light was coming on when you closed it on that super sealer it was very dim..
Dude you are hilarious but for real...are you all there? Together i mean? Lol. Love that cart. Old Navy and other big corps. Will have to answer for throwing out clothes people can use esp. Cutting them up..same with grocery stores.Forgot what country it is but they just passed a law not allowing them to throw it in the dumpster but has to donate it..maybe America will follow suit..one can hope.
1st time I sawed your mug since I been watching your videos. Loves from BC, Canada on Vancouver Island
I know you are a Dumpster Raider; Hit'n'Scrap. But you are so fast, you miss stuff right in front of you, but hey, as long as it is worth it and fun.
I worry every time you jump down in a dumpster that you will step on something and get hurt. Then what will we do for videos? Please be careful!!!
😊😊😊😊😊
You're funny...new subscriber 😂😂
I had a friend who was a gunsmith, he used the bowling balls for his homemade black powder mortar, was in Idaho. Could shoot them 300 yards.
I'd check the bowling bags' pockets and golf bag pockets much closer...I have found gold & sterling rings in them before....
Hi !!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍Mike !!!
A little dizzy lol
more balls! in the same dumpster though? guess someone hide them but the wife found them that or as i said they were testing to see if they get like a warning or your in cctv no dfumping or putting your trash into our dumpster either way good money, 11:35 XD that needs to be sent to scrap pallet man just with the words "huh i think i've seen that somewere before" as that is really like him but piece of scrap small tiny truck lol, nice score a keyboard might be there's no power unit or the battery bay as rusted/rotted out with acid from battery's being left in them,
You want a big laugh I don't know what you'll think about this but true story my dad refused to pay for flowers and he was a biker and used to ride a 64 Harley through the cemetery swiping up bundles of flowers till he found one to take to his date he always told us they're not going to enjoy them and then one day my mom caught wind of it and she's all really in he just kind of smiled😛
I had that same back pack lol. But mine went missing. With documents. Coincidence?? Yeah. Lol.
Old flowers will make good compost, just pile them at edge of your garden let them break down. Then you can mix them in with your soil.
Hey Mikey, the Aires De Lujan packages r cookie filled wit Apples Pears & other Fruits. I had to look it up on google , those u can give to the homeless or pass em over to ur yardsales as well ....
Curtains look like they go to cold room entry -- think walk in freezer. Used to work for a company had a side business with sausage and finished sausage got stored in a room with those kinds of curtains plus locker door.
Mike you always finding more balls...👍👍👍👍👍😳😳😳😳🥴🥴🥴🥴
Yo mike this jc from Harlem I got one question in one of your video you said that it was something about Harlem are you from Harlem and what part
That means in Spanish (put the dumpster here) hello from puerto Rico hi I am from Puerto Rico and I enjoy your channel very much
Jeez Mike, you scare me with the risks you take! If you fell…man, you have your wife waiting for you at home!
Go back over to where you found the bags during the week and hit the alarm button see if something goes off when you know you got to my car. And then you could be a nice guy and give it back to the owner second. Sincerely me
