I have quietly followed Mikes career over the years,I have seen him constantly improve upon logistics,knowledge base,recovery time and technique. I feel like I can confidently say at this time that Mike has evolved into the perfect dumpster predator.
I watch these videos on my phone and often when he starts digging around I find myself twisting my phone around to help and the auto -rotate triggers and I have to get it back to where I want it to be...
I had to defend Mike yesterday! Some guy said, "He always sounds angry!" NOT our MIKE!!! I told him that his early videos he was a tad bit cranky at times but I think that was just growing pains, growing a channel is hard. I told the guy to watch his vids from about a year into the channel and he will see a marked change. Luv Da Mike!
I once lived behind a strip mall. The workers were always putting good items in the dumpster and picking it out later after work. I learned to get there first😂. Got some cool freebies!
Roy Haynes, America's Cheapest Man, said he worked as a Security Guard at a mall and was amazed at the new items they tossed in the dumpsters. He took things out and sold them at a Flea Market. He lives in Vermont, where there is 5 or 10 Cents deposit on all bottles, so he'd go to dumpsters behind Bars and recycle their bottles. He's very good at repairing items, like Mike, so he'd take a Washing Machine and get parts and fix it and sell it.
There's channels here on u-tube that specialize in that type of diving, not much of interest for me but while riding my bicycle I have checked out the dumpster behind a dollar store and there's stuff there, again not much that was of interest for me, I did get a couple of candles with religious writing that I knew a friend would appreciate and gave to him and a couple of bags of pork rinds for me.
@@Jibbie49There's a guy in my area that's made a successful business dealing in used appliances, started out with one truck, now has at least three that I know of, will pick up and pay for your appliances or you can take them to his store and test them and he'll make an offer, with washers and dryers now costing over a thousand dollars he has a bunch of buyers for his hundred dollar and up products.
@@indianaslim4971 Roy Haynes won the National Enquirer's "America's Cheapest Man" Contest and was on Joan River's talk show, which set him up for other talk shows. As his wife Lisa said "When the economy tanks, the news comes to Roy for advice." Roy worked a hot factory job from 18 to 28 and locked in his retirement and then worked 2 years as a Grave Digger and said "I noticed no one brought luggage", so he decided to live another lifestyle. He's passed 70 now and lives well. Lisa said "For a guy who doesn't work, Roy is always busy."
My computer guy would be tikled pink with those computer finds working or not, even the empty towers have value. Great score Mike, and 100 pounds of moters in one dumpster, WOW! 🎉
I have a confession to make. I tried to NOT watch Mikes channel. I really did! But I am always cheered by his attitude and when I watched this summers diving scavenge I was hooked. (See what I did there? Uh? Huh? Hooked! LOL
Hi Mike nice find with those steel shaft with pillar blocks for that shaft. I like those monitors you found. Have a safe and Happy Fkrth of July to you and yours.
Another great scavenge Mike, doesn't say much for the quality of Dell monitors if they end up in the dumpster. Keep doin what you do Mike and don't let the juice get ya....
@@lukelegg9915dell had great computers in the early 00s quality build that were so reliable you could trust your life with. Then Dell became cheap, moved all of its operations overseas, used inferior materials anything to cut corners.
I would so buy all of that 3D filiment from you. Pay for shipping and even a tip for my favorite Scavenger. One of my Bonus Sons is trying a side hustle with his 3D printer.
Mike in the second open top in the metal you threw out there was what is called a block and tackle. It is a straight piece of metal, all rusty looking, with like a clothes hanger hook on it. About 8" on each side of the middle hook are hooks to hang a large animal up on while it is being gutted and skinned. I don't know the worth in Texas, but in Montana that is an antique and worth about $25.00 to hunters.
Happy 4th of July weekend!! Hope the monitors work or your computer guy can do something with them! “Hose in the dumpster hose in the dumpster!” I miss when you used to sing your little song!
I'm surprised you don't take the empty steel freon bottles. I recycle mine. perfect metal scrap! and look at all that cardboard that doesn't get recycled. holy cow!!
In the home/house stuff dumpster before the last one, you missed some possible cat wire below your right foot all the way to the edge of the dumpster. Saw it when you stepped up on the dumpster. I was like, "Dude, you just missed some wire...". That's pretty cool though. Hopefully, some good news w/ them monitors. 😁😁😁🤙🤙🤙💙💙💙💜💜💜
Hope everyone has a great holiday weekend! Be safe out there Scavengers!. Stay hydrated. Peace!
Be safe Mike
More river adventures soon ?
😎
Thanks, Mike

Don't forget his video editing skills.😊
I definitely agree he’s come so far!
Love this!
I for one would like to see an old school run using a skateboard or bike, just for nostalgia...
Now go back to being quiet
Guten Abend aus germanii. 👍👌💪💵💰
Mega score on those monitors
I had a SANIO T.V. when I was a Kid in the 70's!
Mike says "watch yo head, watch yo head" and I duck every time. 😂

You have come a long way Mike. Hey have a great 4th of July. ( Let Freedom Ring!) 🇱🇷🔔🇱🇷💕
Those bearings on those shafts are worth some money if you can get them pressed off$$$
Mike, could you do a video that shows us how you strip the wires, sort the metals, and prepare all of your hauls for scrapping?
He's done that many times 🙄

Those monitors can be repaired. Just a bad circuit board and it can be replaced if they have a blinking light when is turned on.
I would gladly take that 3D printing filament. But it’s only few thousands of kilometers.
Every piece of scrap not going to the landfill ❤❤❤❤❤👍👍👍🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Happy 4th to you and your wife and family…🎉🎉🎉❤
Heavy metal and hot humidity heat is no joke. Its been brutal the last few weeks. Happy Hunting.
Hey Mike!! LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!! those car seats looked to be in good shape. donatable. just sayin. KEEP UPTHE GREAT WORK!
12:34 You’ve missed a monitor down there!
I have a confession to make. I tried to NOT watch Mikes channel. I really did! But I am always cheered by his attitude and when I watched this summers diving scavenge I was hooked. (See what I did there? Uh? Huh? Hooked! LOL
I don't get it 😕
Great find's Mike, good luck with screen's you found. David, Utah.🤠🤠🤠✌✌✌.
Beware the prickly scrap!! Happy 4th everyone! Love your videos!
Hi Mike nice find with those steel shaft with pillar blocks for that shaft. I like those monitors you found. Have a safe and Happy Fkrth of July to you and yours.
He's a funny dude 😅
Another great scavenge Mike, doesn't say much for the quality of Dell monitors if they end up in the dumpster. Keep doin what you do Mike and don't let the juice get ya....
Old dell monitors used to be the best, the new ones they have are absolutely junk
@@lukelegg9915dell had great computers in the early 00s quality build that were so reliable you could trust your life with. Then Dell became cheap, moved all of its operations overseas, used inferior materials anything to cut corners.
We love tagging along!...alright alright! 🥰😉
I would so buy all of that 3D filiment from you. Pay for shipping and even a tip for my favorite Scavenger. One of my Bonus Sons is trying a side hustle with his 3D printer.
Yeah, was thinking the same thing. That was a nice pile of PLA.
Awesome haul there Mike thanks for sharing
Looks like you got the "SHAFT".
Hahahahaha
Thanks for another entertaining video Mike!

Happy 4th of July weekend!! Hope the monitors work or your computer guy can do something with them! “Hose in the dumpster hose in the dumpster!” I miss when you used to sing your little song!

Happy 4th Mike remember when you are out keep hydrated, I'm from NY n while it's been somewhat hot the air quality has been shite beyond compare.
So sorry you have to put up with that 😢
Mike, I'm amazed at what an athlete you are with climbing in and out of those dumpsters, and loading whatever is necessary on that truck.
Dumpster ninja
a good saturday is a very lucky day today ❤
Mike trying to stat warm in NZ winter of 2023
I hope you do a follow up episode to see if those monitors are any good
Mike Kulpa used to work for Microsoft!
3D printing filament sells for $ .72 an ounce...maybe there is a market out there somewhere.
Great dumpster episode Mike 👍🏻 have a safe 4th of July and Happy Independence Day brother
Very nice monitors hope that they work. Mike it's our pleasure to be able to watch you.
Hope you are taking precautions for the heat. Hard to imagine the hot dumpsters and hopping in and out in hot metal
Hello Mike,
Another nice scrap collection.
This was an awesome score of scrap today 😀
Definitely looking forward to the update on those monitors. Happy 4th everyone. Stay safe.
These finds are great
I know a Guy in Arizona that could fix all of those Dells! And then he can sell them FAST!
I'm surprised you don't take the empty steel freon bottles. I recycle mine. perfect metal scrap! and look at all that cardboard that doesn't get recycled. holy cow!!
