You called Betty- Dottie!! Memories!
I think he misses Dottie
@@Luclys yeah I think you’re right!

@@dongillette1777
I do miss it even though I don't have anything to do with it 😁
Thanks for rescuing the vintage fabric. People pay good money for that.
Ditto. I was geeking out over that fabric.
Funny thing is back in the early 80's I worked at a fabric store as a stocker and sweep the floor. I was probably 15 . I remember seeing fabric like that.
Yes thank you, I was watching that and was wondering what is he going to do to with that. I remember seeing all of that in the 80's also.
Yeah I was going ape over it myself. 😅
Quilting fabric?
That Recaro is like a 1000 dollar seat I literally just freaked out
You are correct, I did the same . Mike Gave up the right to make over a grand.well if you don't know you don't know.
I am so happy you took all the fabric. If you don’t want it, donate it. Even if it’s old it’s still useable. I sew so it makes me happy to see you take it. ❤❤❤
At minute 19:10, the seat is worth hundreds of dollars, it is a Recaro Rally 3 sports seat from RECARO Automotive GmbH is a German company based in Kirchheim unter Teck near Stuttgart, which is one of the world's leading manufacturers of car seats.
The old seats were often used in Opel GT, Manta, VW Golf GTI.
Was looking for someone to say something on that seat!!!
Thank you for disposing of the flags in the propper manner buddy proud of you.
Watch your cranium!!
At 18:46 you said get that in the back of old Dottie not old Betty😮
That's what I thought I heard, 😂 lol
The last one was a treasure trove! Great job with the flags Mike too, very respectful, a tip of the hat from me squire.
Well worth tromping around in!
@@j.lietka9406I couldn't agree more. There was so much history just thrown away. It's sad in my eye's but life goes on. 🙏✌U
Love that you saved the flags & fabric!!!
Hi Mike 😧 I am SO glad you didn't land your foot on that rake in the first dumpster!
oh my God Mike that Recaro seat was worth hundreds if not thousands
Thank you for taking of our flag, it looked old maybe a 48 star. 🙏🏼🇺🇸
Yes they are puff balls and very delicious.
The puff balls we had growing on our farm property didn’t have a stem.
They were round to the ground. They were also delicious sliced and fried in butter with onions.
You can eat those?!
We used to pick them and mom would cook for us.
@@julielumsden5184 they were / are safe to eat? Thank you 🌹❤️
Man O Man! Mike you don’t know how lucky you are. Oh to live in a world where mosquitoes don’t try to eat me, sounds just like heaven 😇😇😇
I know skeeters love my blood and then I get welts from them!
Thanks for saving Grandma's fabric stash. Somebody will be all over that! The flags too.
Sometimes, what you do makes me Sad 😔.
In these garbage piles, I can see the end of a life
or when someone’s evicted….
I know that you do too. 🥺🥺🥺🥺
BTW: That was Huge Old Road Case. Really valuable.
The foam often disintegrates after 10 years.
You can get replacement foam from the OEM.
That’s like going through my grandmas basement. I found a bread bag that advertised bread for 24 cents.
Let’s go get some scrappidy scrap.
Nice collection of scraps.
It’s so sad to see all that stuff in the dumpster. You know all that was years and years of parents, saving items that they thought were worth saving, they die, and then the kids come and toss everything out. My husband and I talk about that how that’s gonna happen to us when our kids come through our house and just throw away everything. We’re hoping to be smart and get rid of things as the years progress but life happens and we don’t do it like we should. Thanks for saving a few things you saved Mike.
Love your videos, Mike. Your always finding stuff in the dumpsters. That vintage cloth is something you have never found. Look like some one was cleaning out Grandma's house 🏠🏠🏠❤❤❤❤❤❤
THEM SHOOMS WERE PERFECTLY READY AND EDIBLE
What kind
👍😎🇺🇸 Still Got My MacBook From A Dumpster Working It Didn't Require Fixing, Keep Scraping MIKE 👍😎🇺🇸
Dude! I'm sitting in my clean basement and I can totally smell what kinda day you're having... Recent rain, mushrooms r coming up, skeeter n juice... What a trip!
Rock on!
Why don't those dumpsters have drain holes ?
You’re the man! No one does it like you Mike, no one! Stay safe 🤟
Mikey has had w-a-a y too much caffeine today. You go, fella.
Try it in 1.5x speed like I do to get more scraps in less time🤪😂 He’s hilarious at that speed.
“mating juice” 🤣
Yup those were very delicious puff balls. And an autoclave. Also the mosquito larvae is hatching in the still water. That dryer had some coinage in it by the sounds of it. ♥️♥️♥️🇬🇧🇨🇦
always an adventure with Mike
I recognize the pipe shelving. It’s a chef stand, with the wood a cutting board top. I bought mine a Sears
Mike I love your video it makes me happy all times you are very happy man when u are on your round picking up scrap.
an anchor, that deep. let that sink in Mike
And! I know you love those kind of dumpsters too. 👍🥰
Hey Mike those car seats are from a late 70s early 80s Camaro Z28 and they are worth money to people who restore old cameros! Just letting you know! 👍
does Ricardo's did not come in a Z28 I own an 81 Z28 Recaros are Japanese right hand drive 240 Jackson's Honda CRXall kinds of carsbut not a Z28
Did I see right? Recaro?
Recaro seats did come in the 3rd gen camaro/trans am pace cars for only 2 years.
That water standing in the dumpsters that is how mosquitoes breed. Great video as always. You amaze me how you jump in and out of those dumpsters.
I sew a lot of crafts and old fabric patterns are always in demand I consider my self very lucky when I find some.
"Don't like my juice" that would have been a great title 😏 💜ya Mike!
That would be a awesome shirt
The vintage fabric is a dream come true to me ❤
Yes they are puff balls and very delicious
Those are not puffballs. Puffballs do not have bases or stems. Never eat a wild mushroom until you 100% sure it is edible. Some are poisonous. And some are fatal.
@@lindaswanson9328Pýchavky jsou na 95 % neškodné. Některé nejsou dobré, po některých budeš mít žaludeční potíže ale jedovaté nejsou. Je ale hrozné ničit houby tak jak to dělal Mike 😕
@vitslunecko8445 I often see these mushrooms growing on what we call fairy rings. Some of the rings are enormous. 6-8' across. It's too pretty to destroy.
@@lindaswanson9328all mushrooms are edible, at least once.😏🤮😵☠️
@@dr.a006 you got me there.
Go Mike!!! 🌞👍
Glad to get a new video! Getting so much rain, your going to need waders!
I'd look a bit more carefully in the last dumpster old people that save things are bound to have stashed the cash in some odd place...like paperwork under drawers framed photos. They're also the kind who would put a 20 in a hiding spot in the wallet for emergencies. Love dumpsters like that a true treasure hunt. That was reminiscent of your old dives, love it and thanks for saving the fabrics and above all the flag!
Those orange fade recaros were worth a fortune
Mike The Scavenger always has a vlog full of energy.
Thanks for taking us along.
Some wet diving! That's ok Mike, we're with you. Those TV tables are resaleable.
@ 10:51 "You can put a baby in there, and you can incubate it...." Hahahahahhahahahhahahahha! You are too much Man. That cracked me up, I had to stop the video......
And uhh, obviously, I hope, don't put your baby in an autoclave.....
We are the lucky ones!! Skeeters hate me too!!
It has to do with our blood type
Nice vintage fabric. Great finds
I think that if I ever live in the USA, I would have to have another house just to store the junk found in the Dumpsters... lol
So glad to see you got the fabric and flags. Money in that fabric! Thank you for another almost 30 minutes of fun.😊😊
Thank you for showing respect to our American flag brother! I'm so happy you rescued them and showing them the respect they deserve and thank you for knowing the rules of them by not putting them on the floor as well. My grandpa was a WW2 Marine and he would have commended you for that! One of the best youtubers out there! Much love bro. Keep on truckin! And happy Memorial Day weekend! Thank you again for what you did!
You threw the cabinet in the truck and said (in the back of old dottie).
A very 'juicy' collection.
From one Mike to another !
Love all your videos !
Please, keep doing what you do !
Looking forward to seeing more !
THANK YOU, MIKE. ENJOYED THE VIDEO.😎👊🙏PEACE AND GOD BLESS
I wonder how many people watching that say omg I threw that in there !!!
Mike, you should make a pair of 80s parachute pants with the fabric you found. 22:04
Hello .Mr mike always lookforward to your scavenger adventures
Big Mike, i like to use old boots for planting flowers in them those would've been cool
That boat decking is EXPENSIVE stuff!
My favorite dumster diver, allways a good video, lots off fun, good information over metals, a love for dogs ( and wife😊 ) Mike you're are the best👍
That Bride car seat is collectible Mike. $300 worth.
Olá Mike,sou de São Paulo Brasil, admiro muito o seu trabalho, aqui em meu país não temos coisas muito coletáveis más mesmo assim eu quando pego alguma coisa procuro restaurar e coloco a venda, obrigado pelo seus vídeos, abraços no coração de todos aí 🙋🤝🙌🙌🥂🥂🥂🥂

Awesome scrap run Mike, thanks for sharing 😃🇨🇦
🧦 - Dobby approves of your planet-saving efforts - 🧦 Some see trash, you see potential treasures!
About those mosquitos, with all the information out there about reducing standing water so mosquitos can't breed maybe the dumpster companies could drill holes when they make them.
I’ve thought about that before too. Such a no-brainer!
1:17 Squirrel!
WHAT...A...HAUL!!! 👍🎦👍🎦👍🎦👍🎦👍🎦👍
Puffball mushrooms. GREAT eating.
You called Betty ....OLD DOTTIE ! We all miss old dottie ! lol
Mike those scanners and scales have some of 5he best optics in them
Love the fabric. Bless 👍🙏🏻
That Recaro seat you passed on was worth about 1000 and if you found both 2500.
All that dumpster juice, it be flooding
Great stuff. I'm interested in the thing that converted old movie cassettes to computer.
MTS... You are by far the best scrapping individual I watch... Real deal yo... Good stuff fer sure!!!... God Bless you...
Good saves
Glad to.see you made it through all that bad weather.
Those giant puff ball fungus are great food if they are fresh and still white through the center.
You threw that 2 drawer cabinet in Dotty, while driving Betty. Lol
@Mike the Scavenger, the AC screens are for Tesla back seats
Dottie ? LOL Old habits are hard to break .
the fabric can be sut and make into patch work quilra with different designs. good finds. this is why this is one of my fav shows lol gj gj mike
Oh my gosh, mike. That last dumpster was awesome. I would love to go thur it all day. There could be great stuff still in it. I've had dreams like that. You are the greatest, tganks mike😊😊😊
Cool finds, Mike! 💜🩵💜🩵💜🩵💜
You called Betty White --- Dotty your old truck. I miss that old pickup. Be Safe Brother.
Tell your wife to try Bath and Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar body spray. It's the only thing that works for me. I discovered it only 3 years ago after 63 years of bites that made huge red itchy welts that lasted two weeks. The clerks at the store knew about too.😊
HEY... I'm a fan, too !
That big thing with shelves was an autoclave
It sterilizes
A ton of stainless steel
Yo-Yo Mike. FYI, those pieces of glass from the store scanner. They are a wonderful use for a sand blasting viewer. I use to replace my glass every few months.(hard to see with all the scratches) but that glass holds up much better. Might be worth a few bucks. Stay scrappy!
That car seat is money
Hey Mike,
Thanks for the videos y ou take time to produce.
All of this week til Monday going to rain. I could be first or last for my commute. You ate appreciated
How wad Mothers da6 in your family. Be safe and have fun.
You slipped and called your truck Dotty......
Mike hit cord food! Going into Dottie! Errr..Betty white.
Always love watching treasure hunting!
