good morning we are loading up right now and i already see
the first shark tooth i find these in my laundry i find these in my
boots and we're gonna find them today in the shark tooth capital of the world
We're going to give it our best
we are in venice florida today getting ready to jump into the gulf of mexico with black gold
fossil charters it's a hot one but we are here looking for megalodon shark teeth and other unique
marine fossils the gulf also used to extend about 20 miles off of the coastline in the pleistocene
12 000 years ago so if we get lucky we might find some unique mammal fossils like mammoth and
mastodon as well but it is very hot so we're gonna get ready get underwater and in just a few minutes
we should be able to show you all some amazing fossils that you can find in venice florida
got some good stuff for sure for it it's in here i got my first piece of black gold look at that nice
posterior megalodon tooth it's probably about three and a half inches we'll measure it but
this would have been to a big shark it would have had five inch interior teeth it would have been
a 40 foot shark also it doesn't matter where i go it seems like i try to pull up ice age fossils
so i've got a couple broken mammoth teeth that would have been really nice with their shamers
it's interesting out here during the pleistocene this is mainly a grassland so mammoth material is
actually pretty common out here versus browsers like glyptodon or mastodon i got another chunk of
a big adult mammoth tooth that is awesome really good first dive i gotta get out of here so captain
mike can come up dude good first dive really good first dive hey get over here again right
with material as well oh you did get some mammoth that's really cool
oh it's really dirty but oh goodness that's a whole tooth dude you holding out on us
a little bit you're holding out on us he found a whole mammoth tooth look at that
oh come on wait a minute is that some black gold that's a black one it's like tan gold
i'm over here showing off my broken mammoth teeth and he's over here holding back with a
real mammoth tooth that is completely whole this is the chewing surface the masticating surface
here but it's covered in coral and in other growth some sea growth so we'll clean that up
and i'll show a picture of that after you get to clean up because that is nice that's a sweet tooth
that is always a really good feeling when you're finding fossils on the first dive but we've got
all the gear swapped we've got more ground to cover today we're gonna get back underwater
and keep finding some unique fossils hey good luck looking forward to what you guys find let's go
uh uh duh delicious
oh my god that's nice
let me see if you recognize that is that a that's a canine is it really yeah
that's a predator canine you do not find predator remains that often we've been fighting mammoth and
tons of horse today but that dude that is amazing i found that it was just laying in
the sand yeah and i held it the whole time i was afraid of breaking it so bad what did he just say
i said all i found was a measly wolf tooth wait a minute - i didn't have my first - uh wait he said
he said all he found is a measly wolf tooth so you found a wolf tooth you found a dire wolf tooth
woah woah woah i gotta grab something to show you one second stay right there
do you want to see another one you found one too no wait you did not i thought it
was a dolphin tooth wait a minute wait a minute i'm flipping forward here
ready yeah and its in his bag like regular
those are probably associated what's going on right now okay those are 100% associated same size
i don't care who says no of course i couldn't be the one to find a wolf tooth my boy had to
find one too that's awesome yeah but how cool is that that is amazing that is wow so unheard of that
somehow made it even cooler see when he showed me i didn't really know what it was i've never seen
one but those have to be they're the same yeah they've got to be they are the same we are now
wolf brothers you're a wolf together forever oh my god how weird is that if you die i'm taking your
tooth well we'll have to sign a sheet of paper here they're even worn the same on the inside yeah they've got
the same wear exact same that's unheard of that is once in a lifetime kind of moment that's amazing
you go your whole life and not have something like this happen again and if you guys haven't met
michael before he's one of my dive buddies and he's got a youtube channel called i hunt dead
things so make sure to check him out as well but this is amazing if you're enjoying today's video
and you haven't subscribed to the channel please do so it helps us out a lot and that way you can
keep track of all our adventures like this as we continue to find fossils and hidden treasures
throughout the united states today has been amazing so far do we have one more dive left we do
oh my gosh we might find some more stuff all right last part of the day let's go good luck
see ya buddy see ya
it's always a good feeling to end the day on a find like a megalodon tooth
two of them there we go oh that's nice yeah got a little bit of a root ding let's see that might
be a borehole oh it's a bore hole it's acceptable to me now but that's a pretty decent meg really
awesome day if you guys ever want to get put on these megalodon shark teeth check out black
gold fossil charters because captain michael knows what he's doing black gold we got a really good
diversity of animals today i love finding these big triangles but the direwolf material that we
found is super rare and the fact that staab from i hunt dead things and i both got matching canines
