If those reels of copper looking wire are REAL no wonder why companies go bust! Would like to know the truth Mike sheesh if it's copper coated crap it's still scrap but if it's real deal that's just crazy.
Mike, Score, on that wire. Trying to read up on the welding wire. So far all I can find is it is Fluxed interior with a wire or copper coating. If I figure any thing else i will send it.
I’m a 70 year old widow. Love to watch your videos and look forward to a new one. If not I watch the older ones. Have seen all of them. You brighten my day.
this inspired me to dig for treasure in the dumpster out back, but since i'm the only one that uses it, all i found was a bunch of my own crap. jackpot!!
It's been real! Mike you've been nothing short of an amazing inspiration thru this struggle. Last week, they've told me I have 2 months. I've been healthy all my 60yrs. Even kicked w Stage 4 Cancer. In my face told, "You're beyond curable." I haven't given up! All Prayers gratefully accepted! Amen
3 year's ago I was given only a 22percent chance of beating my cancer. I went on a high protein diet and I ate broccoli at least twice a week, that and a lot of prayers and I am cancer free today. Don't give up that is the only thing that can help you get better, Drs aren't always right. I will be praying for you.
You should switch to eating grass fed beef, grass fed butter and pasture chicken and eggs, immediately. Regular iodine drops daily, and a dewormer. You have years, no 2 weeks.
All those halogen and incandescent light bulbs were worth grabbing. There's still plenty of people that prefer them, now that they can't be sold in stores anymore, you can get a few dollars per box easily.
Those are all incandescent bulbs. I work at the Home Depot in the electrical department. We can’t sell most incandescent bulbs anymore. Everything is LED now. People ask for incandescent bulbs every day. That dumpster full of bulbs is a gold mine.
Not only is he saving the planet by keeping tons of recyclables out of the landfill but he does it without all the foul language alot of TH-cam channels have keep on digging mike👍👍👍👍
So happy when I see you have a new video on I always stop whatever I am doing to watch. You bring me so much joy and have been a great help in my recovery from 36+ years of meth use, now instead of getting high I just want to see a great score you make. Life is so good for me now, I can't believe I wasted so many years.
Ah, the simple pleasure of dumpster hoppin'. I'm a recovering junkman myself. I've actually helped other junkman types quit draggin' stuff home and even part with stuff. Starting small is the strategy. First, sort out hardware and pitch anything rusty and all flathead screws. Now, it'll be easier to pitch something bigger, like the magazine collection.
Come on - all those Bulbs in the Dumpster - ah - very waste full indeed ! Hey You got some Heavy Boxes with Stuff - another Follow-Up ? Man that was a very Exciting Dumpster Diving - look at all those Goodies - Betty is Bursting Full ! Thanks Mike and many Cheers from Australia !
The one found is an older model not supported by the manufacturer. Not sure why anyone is buying 'life support equipment' they can't certify as working right.
@@anotheruser676 there are places all over the world that don't care about a manufacturer certificate and would be thrilled to have that "outdated" equipment.
Mike, you are the king of amazing!!! Your willingness to find and go after scrap, yeah, let's call like it is - amazing! Thanks for keeping we "scavengers" entertained.😊👏
It's more difficult than you think. About a decade back bought a storage unit loaded with every kind of welding wire known to man. Spent about 5 years trying to sell it off and I would sell a spool here and there but eventually had to scrap 80% of it.
So happy a new video 😊 I live watching the older ones too. Being my age sometimes you forget you've watched them and they all seem new all over again. Happy happy joy joy
, dude, I have always respected dumpster treasure seekers. I've seen, and heard of people finding high priced ,to highly useful or scrapable 🤙🍻🏴☠️ Keep divin bro,.
I have been watching Mike for years too. He got me through a tough health crisis. Love watching. Never miss a video and always thumbs up before I get too far into the video.
Your videos are the perfect combination of chaos, randomness, treasure hunting, and weirdness to keep someone like myself with adhd calm and interested enough to continually watch your videos all the way through. I get second hand excitement when you come across the good scores
22:00 TSI Potacount fit tester for testing how well a respirator fit on your face . The n95 is popular for hospitals and ambulances. I've used it for hundreds of hours. Slightly older model.
I performed over 2500 fit tests using this, from N95 to SCBA full face makss, on first responders and lab techs, so when they forced everyone to wear hospital "masks" as protection against a certain v!rüs a few years back, I knew it was all BS
Remember when you first started doing this? You used to be so quiet and stealthy...now you crash and yell...love it! Thank you for recycling all that stuff!
Hey Mike that welding wire on the spools are $59-79 a spool. As for the medical carts While I was in rehabilitation one of the carts were plastic. Makes it easier for the nurses and aids to move the carts. As for the new lights you found in a sealed box over in UK they were switching over to led 17 years ago. I was in Midland UK. I even took home a newspaper from back then for the advertising.
A lot of people see trash, I see treasure lol 🤑 💰 he's about to scrap all that metal for 💸 , and he's also recycling ♻️ thank you Sir for keeping this planet green
This is what I like about videos like these.... Everything is recyclable, there's nothing wrong with second hand items, and everything can be repaired.
I saw the video where you found that “glass ball light”. (Actually I’ve watched it three times lol lol) Then you put it together and WOW !! It was AWESOME !!!! Those spools of copper are a great find. Love you Mike. ♥️♥️♥️♥️🇬🇧🇨🇦
Looks like Miss Betty needs to grow higher wings! Catalytic converters--ask your local semi-truck dealer/mechanic. Be safe and prepared for that cold weather.😊
I sure wish I could make these kinds of finds especially those chandeliers! Even if I wouldn't use then entirely the cut crystal orbs and sentions are totally useful for me. Nice night of dumpster diving! stay safe!
I get jealous watching this because I like to do this kind of stuff I've always liked to dumpster dive but I don't own a pickup truck right now or I'd be doing it it's a cool way to make money especially scrap and metal and you're Your Own Boss
HOT DAAAND, Cousin Mikey, with all them light bulbs, you can start your own hard ware store! Nice finding on them kitty cat wires, build that scrappers gold up, yo!
Mike you seem to disapoint me , it's always something new with you. I watch all your videos and hearing you say some of the darnest things. I'm always waiting for the next video cause the excitement is so real. Keep on scrapping and making those videos and I'll always be watching. Even when you are on down time I just go back to one of your older videos. Love watching you do your thing and say the strange stuff. Love to ya Mike ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤. Keep me excited for the next time. Every day is better than the last one. Keep your head up and keep on scrapping
Love the channel and watching you do your thing I'm not able too cause had a stroke so helps me since I cannot I miss scrapping n miss my routes I had be safe bro!!!
The dpf's may contain precious metals such as but not limited to gold platinum and palladium. Call the scrap yard and axe if they buy catalytic converters. They will most like buy, but you would have to find the serial number. So they can tell if it's an OEM or aftermarket. OEM ones will bring you more cash. Because they contain more PMs.
I’ve been following you since you were riding the skateboard around the dumpsters. In all that time I’ve only found one thing wrong with your videos. They end too soon!🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for the great entertainment. Hope your pup is doing well.
Have A Good Weekend, Y'all! Watch some football and eat junk food!
If those reels of copper looking wire are REAL no wonder why companies go bust! Would like to know the truth Mike sheesh if it's copper coated crap it's still scrap but if it's real deal that's just crazy.
Well Holy scrapidy scrap scrap Mike! Would love a follow up on those monster catalytic converters
Mike, Score, on that wire. Trying to read up on the welding wire. So far all I can find is it is Fluxed interior with a wire or copper coating. If I figure any thing else i will send it.
We are eating pizza and wings
Those cats, I think they are off a diesel truck and part of the def system. I don't know if they have the same goodies.
I’m a 70 year old widow. Love to watch your videos and look forward to a new one. If not I watch the older ones. Have seen all of them. You brighten my day.
🎉 I feel that enjoy
Hello Ms Teresa ❤️ just a short note to cheer you up! 🌹☕👍
I'm also 70 years old and I didn't miss any of his posts.
im 420 years old, i love mike teh essssssssssssss
Do you still hit the dumpsters?
I'm a 64 year female and been watching Mike for years never miss a video and yes I hit the the thumbs up before the video cause Mike never disappoint
Moi 70 et je le suis depuis mon infarctus de myocarde il ya 8ans
Ikr.....I am 67 and a woman!
this inspired me to dig for treasure in the dumpster out back, but since i'm the only one that uses it, all i found was a bunch of my own crap.
jackpot!!
You made me chuckle big time lol
LoL good one 😂
Mike rescues dogs. That means he's a SUPER HERO!!
It's been real! Mike you've been nothing short of an amazing inspiration thru this struggle. Last week, they've told me I have 2 months.
I've been healthy all my 60yrs. Even kicked w Stage 4 Cancer. In my face told, "You're beyond curable." I haven't given up! All Prayers gratefully accepted! Amen

You should switch to eating grass fed beef, grass fed butter and pasture chicken and eggs, immediately. Regular iodine drops daily, and a dewormer. You have years, no 2 weeks.
Nothing else except avocados raw and organic lettuce with some kind of fruit. Avoid vegetables or any kind of high oxalate foods.
@@lemonyskunkketts7781 Just so you know. I've been doing all the above, even before diagnosis 01/2024. Recently got RSO, it's helped.
Does anyone else hit the thumbs up before watching a most epic video!!
I do.,so that I don't forget
Always! Anything my favorites put out is going to be good!
Always 👍
Yes!
🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️
I love watching Mike! Clean commentary and funny. Seems like he'd be a cool guy to chill with.
All those halogen and incandescent light bulbs were worth grabbing. There's still plenty of people that prefer them, now that they can't be sold in stores anymore, you can get a few dollars per box easily.
That exhaust you found is a DPF(diesel particulate filter)system from a pickup truck.
And worthless. The smaller piece might be a few bucks.
@@jennifermiller082906 You just have to look up the number. The DPF off my sons VW was worth $600.
@@jennifermiller082906can’t be worthless.
The DPF for my Freightliner was $8k (2015 prices too)
Those are all incandescent bulbs. I work at the Home Depot in the electrical department. We can’t sell most incandescent bulbs anymore. Everything is LED now. People ask for incandescent bulbs every day. That dumpster full of bulbs is a gold mine.
Yup. I woulda snagged the outdoor halogens from mike for sure
You are one of my favorite things to watch...you are like spider monkey the way you jump around ...you are so entertaining
I nominate Mike for Secretary of Recycling
There definitely is a need for this kind of position. The amount of cardboard alone is disheartening let alone metal.
Not only is he saving the planet by keeping tons of recyclables out of the landfill but he does it without all the foul language alot of TH-cam channels have keep on digging mike👍👍👍👍
I totally appreciate that too!!!!!
if you watch some of the very first ones he catches himself swearing a bit. very quickly changed that :)
Are you a Mormon or a child? If language upsets you that greatly, you live a sheltered life and there are bigger problems in the world to deal with.
So happy when I see you have a new video on I always stop whatever I am doing to watch. You bring me so much joy and have been a great help in my recovery from 36+ years of meth use, now instead of getting high I just want to see a great score you make. Life is so good for me now, I can't believe I wasted so many years.
You know it’s a going to be a great day when we get a video ok now lets buckle up and let’s go for a journey with Mike the scavenger ❤️🇨🇦

I've got a buddy who needs some hardcore intervention. He almost can't pass a dumpster without having to at least take a peek.
Come on - all those Bulbs in the Dumpster - ah - very waste full indeed ! Hey You got some Heavy Boxes with Stuff - another Follow-Up ? Man that was a very Exciting Dumpster Diving - look at all those Goodies - Betty is Bursting Full ! Thanks Mike and many Cheers from Australia !
Back at you, Mike have a good weekend. Love the follow ups.
Secretary of Recycling. You get my VOTE🗳
YES, PLEASE....we would love a FOLLOW UP!! Enjoy your time off with your lovely wife and those great hound-friends !! Peace to All...😊
..
So fun to listen to his excitement and all the cool things he finds. Especially love his singing. He knows the oldies too. 😊
Those Porta count plus things in the police boxes sell for $500-$1700 on ebay, each! Worth going back to grab them!

Always hit the thumbs up y'all. Mike deserves them all
Mike, you are the king of amazing!!! Your willingness to find and go after scrap, yeah, let's call like it is - amazing! Thanks for keeping we "scavengers" entertained.😊👏
Another great night! I love hanging with y'all. Thanks for taking us along.
Mike those spools are welding wire and they're worth a lot of money find somebody that that weld you can probably sell them for a pretty good bit
It's more difficult than you think. About a decade back bought a storage unit loaded with every kind of welding wire known to man. Spent about 5 years trying to sell it off and I would sell a spool here and there but eventually had to scrap 80% of it.

One of my friends did just that
Love watching you find cool stuff, wish I had dumpsters like that in Ireland, also have a random comment to keep the algorithm happy
This is what I like about videos like these.... Everything is recyclable, there's nothing wrong with second hand items, and everything can be repaired.
