- Howdy, y'all! My name is Mike and I absolutely love scavenging for free stuff, random treasures, lost valuables and other interesting artifacts. I mainly rock the dumpster diving scene but can be found digging through trash curbside as well as scavenging the river bottoms for lost treasures in the summer months. Join me on my epic voyages!

In a nutshell, I ‘m an avid dumpster diver, scrapper, picker, treasure hunter and underwater connoisseur. I prowl the city streets in search of dumpster loot, curbside treasures & scrap metal as well as scour the river bottoms for lost valuables during the summer months when I can scrounge up enough money for gas.

You’ve started something in me Mike.
I went shopping with my family the other day.
I was more excited when I saw they had dumpsters out the back than going into the shop!!
Love what you do and things you find.
David Phillips 🤣🤣 I do that
I'm sorry Mike when you stepped in the paint and shouted "on no" And the guy came up on you I couldn't stop laughing. The guy dropped his rubbish and thought I'm off.... Comedy gold.
"Alright, alright, alright" 2:50 AM in Germany and night funtime with MTS from USA ya 😍😍😍 Thx for a new upload Mike and greets from Berlin to everybody 😉👍
I’m in Berlin also lol. Stieglitz area
Hi Mike. The medical stuff you found were bags of solution for dialysis. The plastic connectors connect the bags to the machine and also connects to the patient. 👍🙂
I am literally laughing so hard, I may have hurt myself...
My favorite channel EVER!!!
Fun Machine looks like a great master controller for the rocket ship. You might even be able to time travel.
The 80’s were my party years! Wish I could rewind and party just a little less!
I think your positive attitude and great narrative makes you a star
That guy was hearing you yelling at the dumpster and smelling that fresh paint... Someone is very high on fumes! 😜😆
Have never been so excited to see you in a bin again..lol Stay safe Yall
AP is Artist Prof 1st print before the start a printing a limited edition(something like 1/100)
The mere idea that someone would actually throw away not just one, but several pianos, is almost impossible for me to wrap my head around. Pianos are up there with harps and violins for being special instruments. It broke my heart to see them tossed in a dumpster like garbage. How terribly tragic. Thank you for rescuing the sewing machine. Hope it went to a good home.
Wow! Couple of baby grands! They crazy throwing away those!
Peritoneal dialysis solution and connectors. Instead of doing dialysis by running blood through a machine, you infuse the dialysate into the abdominal cavity, let it dwell for awhile and then drain it out. The impurities drain out too.
We love you and Mrs Mike❣ Stay safe and God bless.
When you're a kid it's like, ewww a kick stand. When you're an adult it's like, oh thank god there's a kick stand.
I started laughing out loud thinking about that guy walking up on you...and you're talking to us in the dumpster...and the paint!! LOL
Kari Sanborn he probably was wondering where the person was at that Mike was talking to. 😄
That was so funny when that guy walked up on you. Bummer about your shoes. Great stuff, thanks mike😊...
What we got here y'all a little bit of scrap would be a good ringtone haha
Hey Mike the scavenger always will love your content
I sometimes get so annoyed when you are riding around on you bike because you have to handle everything twice plus sometimes you get tunnel vision and just grab the scrap and leave saleable items behind when you could make more at the garage sales sorry brother I just had to get that out it is fun watching you I'm in a nursing home at a young age due to health and you keep me entertained thanks for that
I guess you need to carry a backup pair of shoes and socks.
That wooden piano with the carvings is really nice!
Janky and wonky are new words I will add to my daily vocabulary .. I’m very excited to try them both as early as tomorrow!!👍🏻
Welcome back my friend
I haven't had a good solid laugh from your videos in quite a while. When I first started watching you, you were a riot. Kept me in stitches. Now, you're more business like. I guess that's okay. Still watch you though. I'm a seventy-eight year old, and I'm not used to being a clutz. It's very frustrating. Always dropping things, knocking stuff over. So, when I see a young man, like yourself have a clutz episode, it kind of makes me smile. Love your videos. I watch these videos every night. Helps me relax so I can go to sleep easier. But, I only watch your's as far as scrapping videos. Sorry for rambling so. May God bless you and keep you safe out there in the asphalt jungle.
Lmao at you to night!🤣🤣🤣
I'm sorry but I laughed out loud when you step into the paint. You took it in stride and made a good video.
Been there chap i feel your (sock) pain LOL mikes got wood for days, i loled and loled ;)
Laughed so hard I cried.
Mike you really did put your foot in it. MIND YOUR FOOT! MIND YOUR FOOT!
The keys on old pianos are made out of ivory. If you find any that are old enough, the ivory is probably worth quite a bit.
No one at a music store is leaving ivory keys on a piano they are tossing out. As a matter of fact as they get them in the shop they take them off immediately as they are just to rare and you can buy the bone ones as replacements
Call mike. Keep up the good work. Take care and stay safe. 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️😎😎😎
Thanks for the adventure Mike 👍😎
I just love watching you scrap. You really make me laugh. Keep on keeping on. ✌🏻
A nice long post-Mike, thanks for sharing and have a good safe day!!
@25:51 Kraft... mayonnaise in that big jar. yuuuuuuuuccccckkkkkk!
You treat the new bike a lot better!! 😂😂🚲🚲 and the way you said “ is that a dirty mag?? “ cracked me up!!
You crack me up watching this at 3:45am in the uk you always make my day xx
That was funny as heck when you got the paint all over you in that dumpster
😅😅😅😅😅😅
Well cant miss you with that white paint!!!! LOL
He’s back and that’s great!! Now I can be entertained again!!
16:10 the box looked like a housing for a “flux capacitor,” may need one for the rocket. If the DeWalt boxes draw folks in at your garage sale that’s good. Giving them a free case as a bonus is value added when they do buy something from you. 30:00 looks like it’s time for those Redwings...
I used to repo in Houston back in the 90 s and a key map was my Bible
You got me on the stepping in the paint, could stop laughing..
C. Ruane is the artist on that picture u found.. just looked it up 🤘🏻
372,000 and going up almost daily! You'll hit 500,000 for sure. The paint🤣
Hey Mike it’s always fun to see you and Ivan don’t you knees hurt jumping in and out of the dumpsters
That paint tho😂😂 man I bet you freaked that guy out, you were both freaked out😂😂😂
Make ranger bands out of the inner tube , or you can make a kick ass solar oven out of a pair of large window panes with the inner tube inflated. Make a reflecting panel called a collector. You can cool a large pizza that way.
I don't know if you look at your old videos but that paint was funny 😂😂😂
love the sewing machine, worth having it looked at. Those old machines are work-horse and once restored will be a work-horse again.
Yes, those old metal machines are gold.
Good job.
Man, I died laughing when u stepped in the paint. Been a few days since I've had a good laugh.. thanks man.
Sorry that your shoes are much white. Your gloves are also white. Another great dumpster diving day, your bike is a great ride. I know that you miss the slip and slide action. But this bike will be safe. Thumbs up and thanks for sharing this episode of dumpster diving video.
The paint deal, made me laugh. :)
All those pianos make me cry!!!! That is so sad. Those could be donated, instead of throwing them in the trash.😢😢😢
Laughed so hard ! So funny!
I spilt a pot of paint over my foot at work years ago and had to walk home with a painted shoe
I like the sewing machine cabinet
Love your Dumpster Diving videos!!! 👍👍👍👍
" what that is?" Awwwwwwww!!!
I wish I could hop in and out of the dumpster like you can!
Yes, the 80s, man....
I remember most of the era, probably a good sign.. 👍
Joe from Germany
Watch the paint, watch the paint. Out there workin' it Mikey. Good job.
Rub a dub dub mikes got the tub
Fn awesome paint paint all over love it .
Not strange at all to find musical instruments together with a "Singer". I'll be here all week. Make sure to tip your waiter and waitress...
Sell the Singer Sewing Machine in its COMPLETE FORM 💲🎶💲🎶💲🎶💲
Hi Mike👋🏻! I like how you are repurposing your finds. Looks like your riding a found beach cruiser in a pair of found cut off khakis!
Mike hey dude take extra shoes in case you
get into paint again you are so FUNNY!!🙀😂🤣🤣
I laugh so hard at you 🤣Thanks
Mike! Thats my bike! I lost it on the highway in Houston! You dont even have to go dumpster diving in Houston! There s always pallets, grills, LADDERS, and sometimes boats on the highways in Houston!!😀
Inside most of those pianos have a solid brass plate around 100+ lbs. $$$
That washtub is a $30 bill in my area...use them for planters, so holes in the bottoms don't matter. The bike is a good "garden bike"...easy $25 - $35 just for garden decor here. The slatwall fixtures should get a decent buck, too. RIP for those poor pianos..there was an 1890s one in there, the carved one, too, they make great bars....oh, and RIP for those shoes...
Hi Mike 👋🏻! OMG I died laughing over the spilled paint! You really stepped in it this time. You freaked that guy out dumping his trash! That was truly a funny video and one of the first times I have seen where someone comes up on you! So funny! And then to see you walking around in your socks! ROFL 👟🧦
نفسى اشتغل معاك
That was so funny when you fell in the paint. I couldn’t stop laughing. 🤣🤣🤣
Hope your staying safe glad your back
Sorry but I laughed so much when you stepped through the bucket. 🤣 RIP new balance. That dude must still be wondering what was happening in the dumpster 🤣
Yes, RedWing makes work boots that are rubber and paint will wash off of and the soles are "nail proof." I think Mike needs to improve his footwear. I'm just back looking at his old videos, since he is so much fun. I'm amazed at how much knowledge he has and also how well he makes his videos.
Just got my shirts OW! And thanks so much for working so hard to entertain us we love you too
Hello Mike your the best show on tv and pc keep DIVING...........stay safe
Hay mike glad to see you back doing what u do 👍👍👍
I found info on your art work bro. The name is C Ruane, and I will pm you a link to at least one of their other pieces
*was thinking "I'll send you a tv power cord in the mail" leave it alone.. then you stepped in it! "Hilarious!" 👍🙂🙂🙂
The clamps look like the ones that hold toms for drums and such.
👍👍💜 Thank you Mike again!😷
I hope there will be many people like you. You are a very wonderful group. I hope to learn English so that I can call you all. I love you.
Always looking forward to your videos 🤘🏼🤗
Super Deluxe Beach Cruiser...has a rear deflector, BMX handle bars and to top it off, pin striping on the fenders. What a Sweet ride! 🤩👍
Yep we've all had our episodes with paint in the dumpster. And it's always the white paint that's the worst. That sure brought back memories for a time or two for me.
Way to go mike. Keep up the good work.
Enjoyable as always. 🙂
Bravo ...
Unlucky Mike 😂🤣🤣🤣
I was waiting for you to carry the piano home on your bike. ;-)
I got to hand it to u. You’re quite comical! I LMAO watching this video & it was much needed. Thank u!
Take the dewalt cases and give them away at your garage sale with any purchase then you can feel good that you saved them from the landfill and gave them a new life.
10:21 mid-1960s Singer in its original stand. I learned on one just like it with an identical sewing table. Still have the table with an even older machine in it! Works too! Those old Singers are TOUGH. That Baldwin in the dumpster was crazy money new. Now... it's recycling. That "art" is always signed by John Q NoName artist for use in an office. Some are pretty and some you have to wonder.
I must apologize in advance, when you stepped in the bucket of paint I laughed so hard, I was crying, and the topper the dude walked up at the same time, sorry Mike but I am still laughing. 👍
I’ll take the cruiser!!!
Love watching you mike
Nice tub!😉
Pissing my pants that was funny bad timing on dude coming around the corner when you fell in the bucket of paint
