00:00Whoa!

00:20Oh!
00:21Oh my.
00:21Oh, that's going to be three inches!
00:23Oh my.
00:24Oh my god.
00:26It's beautiful.
00:30We finally made it to Palm Meadow Fossil Excursions here in Somerville, South Carolina, and they
00:38have tons of different fossil layers for us to dig through.
00:41We got an awesome crew of a bunch of treasure hunting and fossil hunting influencers, and
00:47we all get to dig for shark teeth here together.
00:49So you get to sit back and relax while we do the backbreaking digging here.
00:53Let me introduce you to the crew.
00:54A lot of people here find some really amazing history.
00:57And then over here, we have Cody, who you guys see in all the videos, anyways, he's
01:03with me.
01:04Shark Co., right?
01:05We're not dating.
01:06Yeah, Shark Co.
01:07Well, we work together.
01:08And we have Treasure Nick and Endless Search.
01:12How's it going?
01:13We were digging last night.
01:15Found some good stuff, y'all.
01:16Old teeth.
01:17That's right.
01:18And we need to find more today.
01:20Oh yeah, do it.
01:21It's gonna be a good one.
01:22It's gonna be a hard-ass weekend.
01:23What?
01:24What did you say?
01:25Are you joking me?
01:27Did y'all have fun last night?
01:28Yeah, we sure did, man.
01:30Josh is why we're here right now.
01:31We wouldn't be here without him.
01:33Oh, look at them boys.
01:36That is one angryness.
01:39Right up here with Tyler from Coral Geodes.
01:42What's up?
01:43Camp's getting started.
01:44It is daylight.
01:45In this tire track, there is a great white shark tooth.
02:01That is crazy.
02:02And it's white still.
02:05That's wild.
02:10That's really crazy.
02:11You can find shark teeth literally anywhere here.
02:14Oh, it is the great white pocket.
02:17All right, we're in the great white pocket here.
02:23There's been great white shark teeth found in here.
02:26Really colorful ones.
02:27Yeah, y'all take a sifter.
02:58Down in the lair here, I think.
03:19It's like this blue stuff right down there, I'm pretty sure.
03:23So, as I get down there, I'm going to sift it out and see what we can get.
03:28That looks good, Cody.
03:29I'm going to get the square and then I'm going to work my way through.
03:56He said it's just a thin layer above the clay.
03:59Is that what he said?
04:00He said where it meets the clay.
04:01Okay.
04:02Josh is showing us how it's done.
04:03Well, what I would do.
04:04See, I just hit something big.
04:05And so, what I would do is dig out what I call a pilot hole, which is the beginning
04:15of your hole.
04:16Dig this out, sift everything that's in the bottom, and then you have a hole established
04:20to dig off of.
04:21Yeah.
04:22And then that's when I would dry dig the rest.
04:24But what I would go ahead and do is prep your hole bigger.
04:27Okay.
04:28Because the deeper you have to go, the bigger the top of your hole you want.
04:31Yeah.
04:32Prep another foot around it, another foot and a half down, and then sift whatever's
04:37in the bottom here.
04:38How deep is that layer?
04:39Pretty deep.
04:40It's probably about a foot and a half, two feet.
04:41A foot and a half.
04:42It depends.
04:43It might dip that way.
04:44So, what does it look like right here?
04:45Okay.
04:46Is that like super deep?
04:47Yeah.
04:48And as long as you're getting those phosphate rocks, you're in the sauce.
05:01I just hit the sauce over there.
05:02Yeah.
05:03So, probably.
05:04You said there's tons of shark teeth in there?
05:06Look at this little pocket I just got in.
05:09Look at all those little teeth.
05:10Look at that hand me.
05:11It's pretty nice.
05:12That's an oligocene hand me.
05:13It's got a good color on it.
05:14It's beautiful.
05:15There might be another one in here.
05:16It's kind of just a patience game, making sure you're on that clay band, and you're
05:27taking swipes.
05:28You're not hearing gravel?
05:29I put it in the skipper.
05:30Yeah.
05:31If not, I just keep running.
05:32And then, what do we do for the sand?
05:37It's just like over there.
05:38I'm in a bowl.
05:39Let's just take this hole, for instance.
05:40What I'm going to do with this hole is, I know I can find the clay at the bottom of
05:48the hole, and then I'm going to work the hole, and I know I'm getting down to the clay.
05:59I can see the clay come up in my sifter, and if I don't see that clay in the sifter, I
06:04know that I'm not getting all of the fossils, because all the fossils are laying on top
06:10of that clay.
06:11And that's where you get your gravel.
06:12And there's a bull shark right there.
06:13I just lost one of my gravel.
06:14There's a bull shark right there.
06:15It's a little guy.
06:16Another?
06:17Yep.
06:18It's busted, but that's still pretty cool right there.
06:19Nice.
06:20Good color.
06:33Look at that big, great white.
06:43Yeah, man.
06:44All right, there's a great-
06:45I got a third sift, man.
06:47Third sift.
06:48You got a great white?
06:49All right, I'm coming in here we go
06:58I think it's a lower nice
07:11All right, I'm gonna leave it at this all right, I'm gonna take this and I'm leaving the sifter here
07:19Yeah, that's a lower
07:40Shaking man
07:49Are you doing you're not putting it through a sifter? No
07:55Yeah, I waste more energy yeah
08:00How are you guys doing
08:03Anything
08:11Nice I haven't been getting any so might be dolphin you got a bone. Yeah
08:16I'll hit it with my shovel is big
08:20Okay, that is a bone, yeah
08:24Right down there in the lair
08:26Sweet let's find out what was eating it for real might be something to sit there. I haven't checked yet
08:34Big fins, so this probably sits on the
08:37Looking down the snout right towards the tip of the nose. This is the right side of the school right by the orbital
08:44What
08:46Did you say that is
08:49No, the just in general whale school, that's a whale school
09:03Josh you can see it from here, huh? You can see that there's a triangle in that sifter
09:13Hold on
09:19The thing is fire, it's that shadow
09:27How old probably about a million Wow between half a million in a million that is so cool
09:36What was that in five shifts, yeah, this is three this is actually all hands no shovel

10:11The bubble bath
10:17Yeah, if there's gravel that travels into that harder red
10:21Yeah, if it's thick like that, do you feel how that was thick? Yeah that I would dig
10:28You'll find your really great quality mediums in there
10:33All right here at Palmetto fossil excursions, I just dug out a great white shark tooth look at this
10:42Thank you
10:46Now this is where it's been sitting for millions of years
