    Hi!!!
    I work as one of these explosive guy 😉 here in Germany. Please report such finds when you find them. Children can find them too when you dig them out.

    • @IronMikeMetaldetecting
      @IronMikeMetaldetecting  8 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Hi Dunhill!
      Cool job! Yes I do report them. Didn´t in the past and really regret that. I know some people in Germany who help me out with reporting explosives to the right authorities. You should start a channel on what you get reported, very curious about the stuff you guys get rid off.

    • @Dunhillscalemodelling
      @Dunhillscalemodelling 8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Iron Mike Metaldetecting Sheers mate. Yes it could be an intersting vid about IEDs but I will not do one. Sorry. If they see how I handle these finds, they think they can do it on the same way and a lot of these stuff is very dangerous.

    • @IronMikeMetaldetecting
      @IronMikeMetaldetecting  8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Dunhill 2005
      I understand. But I didn't meant how you handle them or move it, I was just curious about what sort of stuff you guys find or get reported. And you're right, it is very dangerous stuff. I don't like to find or to touch it but I simply have to to report it.. :-S

    • @Dunhillscalemodelling
      @Dunhillscalemodelling 8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Iron Mike Metaldetecting When I search or handle ammonition, I am free of all metallic and electric things. Because it will disturb my detector. It works different to yours. so I have no camera when I work. But if you have more precise questions about ammo, maybe I can help you with a vid 😉 but no founds

    • @IronMikeMetaldetecting

    enjoyed this thanks Mike, my Grandfather was a paratrooper in the Arnhem campaign, he was killed in Oosterbeek in Holland, I bet that's a good place to hunt as still today you can see the remains of dig outs in the woodland.

  • @joeroberts9502
    @joeroberts9502 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    The protruding nose on the rockets establishes the "stand-off" distance of the round, when that tube collapses, the hollow charge fires. Doing it that way puts the hollow charge right against the armour when it goes off.

    04:25 .. Not recommended - Berlin Tegel replaced their Garrett Metal Detectors for full body scanners some years ago haha !!! Why has this video only got 467 likes ? ... AMAZING find, never seen this before ... Mike - you have "ba!!s" Thanks so much.

    I really like this kind of video. Sorry you found the potential explosive probably an inconvenience. And I really love how you left the tree root completely intact. I would love to see you get a GoPro nothing super fancy and a head or chest mount and you'd be able to do a live dig!
    Or maybe a tripod for your camera but I know that would be more equipment you'd have to carry.

  • @zettle2345
    @zettle2345 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    you were right... Panzerschreck. the spring is really just wire to wrap around the firing contact. It's an oversized US Bazooka. great weapons, the German versions had way better penetration than the US.

    • @IronMikeMetaldetecting

    I am so jealous. :) Would LOVE to scour the German countryside for WW2 stuff. BTW Mike, have you ever considered coming to America and metal detect at Gettysburg Battlefield? Its a fascinating place besides being HAUNTED AS HELL. ;) Grew up 45 minutes from it. Place is creepy at night. Its hard to describe but, you always feel like you're being watched.

    • @jeffreydavis2578
      @jeffreydavis2578 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Raven Kahne I'm pretty sure you aren't allowed to metal detect there

    • @ravenkahne8484
      @ravenkahne8484 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Jeffrey Davis You can but you have to have special permission from the Park Service. And all findings must be turned over to the Gettysburg Historical Society.

      Iron Mike Metaldetecting Nah, I'm fine, I guess I just can't ever seem to remember which relics of this type go inert, which develop a hair trigger, and which ones seem to gain 50/50 odds of having gone either way. But one thing that for whatever reason does seem to have a near guaranteed hair trigger is my jump reaction.

    @revealingthepast 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    you got two nice pieces but as you said, what can you do with them? nothing indeed :( I always feel frustrated when I find those explosives but once right under a panzerfaust came a bayonet scabbard and well over the panzerfaust I found already two helmets and two rifles. it always worths to double check even if might be dangerous. I like your videos hope to see more, who know maybe see you in some forest around berlin ;)

    just a suggestion, because you said that you dont like filming and digging. Why don't you get a GoPro? just mount it to your head, so you have your hands free and can dig and film at the same time. Nice videos by the way!
