      paradisegunshot Assuming either way so foolhardily is useless, as this clip is surely intended as educational entertainment. Whether or not it is 100% genuine is of little consequence. The takeaway here is that he got lucky and traded a good find for cash under the circumstances and setting evident.

    • @Sparkygravity
      @Sparkygravity Před 9 lety +13

      So it's obviously been cut. But maybe you all missed the speculation made by the narrator that it may have been lost in transit. Is it a Natgeo conspiracy? No. I'm from the Northwest and if I had to guess.. the loggers got sloppy with their staging. Mick found it on a river bank, wedged between a log root, or forked branch. Cedars like rivers, loggers go there to find cedars. What I think happened is that the loggers staged their cuts on a flat, the river rose and carried off some of the smaller cuts. If Mick wants real money he should continue walking down the river looking for more cast offs.
      I realize this is the age of skepticism and photoshop, but I think all you guys shouting fake really do need to reflect on the possibilities of serendipity... it's a thing.

      @dickidydoodah Před 6 lety +1

      Western Red Cedar is very soft. With natural movement from expansion and contraction the shakes get worn plus, Snow is very abrasive and wears down the wood from sliding off the roof. They do decay but it can be 100 years if conditions are right.

    I like Mick Dodge. I like his generous friend. He's living in s world that made living in the wilderness, for all practical purposes, illegial. When I watch these shows--I think about homelessness, and The Federalist Society. What is the Federalist Society? Answer: Basically a bunch of people who think we have way too many laws. I know guys in prison for fishing without a license. (Yes--it's wrong, but the law shouldn't be black/white. (A pole in a creek started his life of fines.). Another had $12,000 in Loitering fines. He is disabled, but not enough to get a check. He sits behind a coffee shop, and they finally put him in jail. This is not the America I saluted to.

      @jacksonrapp3818 Před 5 lety +1

      diyconstruction no one is in prison for that unless they didn’t pay the fine, and the money that you pay for the license goes to make sure there are fish for him to catch, stop complaining and pay the small amount of money
