Dumpster Diving "A Plug That Says Hope"
Ойын-сауық
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!

Mike, did ya leave the rain fly to that tent behind? I see you standing on something that looks like the cover to a tent. For what it’s worth… I could be wrong! Just saying! ☮️

It’s ok you take some time off and now you are going to put out some awesome videos
Who remembers the days when Mike used to take stuff home and break it down for us, then show us all the different metals separated out before taking it to the scrap yard? 😊

He is a media content creator and MTS brand merchandiser now, the scraps are just his vehicle/medium. He does not bother filling the truck up anymore because he is literally just going to throw the scrap right back into a dumpster.

6:50 save that ghillie suit. It's a great prepper thing you have. Great cammo
That thing you thought was part of a trailer, was a tow bar for a VW beetle. My brother used those a lot when he used to work on nothing but bugs.

Thank you Mike for sharing with us! Hope all is well!! We look forward to seeing each of your videos. You work hard for the money. A great example for the younger generation. Some things are better than being in a factory or office all day. Be well and Happy!!
Mike family's first and Happy your ok. Thanks for the videos you produce and your friend follow.
Wow, got a mention in a scavenger video, Mike, is the best folks.
Mike, I think we got more value out of this one than you did, so thanks SO much for sharing with us!
Good job blurring that out 😁 p.s. I love your singing, it makes me happy.
I love watching you scrap Mike you make it so exciting ❤❤❤❤❤
Hi Mike! Great to see ya sharing and saying hi to us! Stay cool in the heat! My heat index is triple digits😢😮
Love your videos Mike like always, peace bro ❤
I used to remove the brass valves from propane tanks, empty of course, valves from propane BBQs. Saved them in a bucket and cashed it in at the end of the month. Was paid good for it. Spent hours taking bbq valves apart
Finally a Dumpster Fighting Back - ah ! Found Yourself's a B-Plug - wow ! Mike - our Jack in a Box ! Many Cheers from Australia!!!!
Thanks Mike!
@ 7:45 Flippers... One of my friends, many years ago, many.... You'd be in a bar with him.... When he was WAY too wasted, he'd starting singing "They called him Flipper! Flipper!" and we all knew it was time to go, and drag him outta there, he was singing the Flipper song......
I understand family is and always will be important
Yes that looked like a successful day of scavenging.
God bless you and your family Mike ♥
Howdy 🤠! Family is your full time job, this is your part time job. Blessings and Peace ✝️❤️
You're just having a blast. That's cool. Animal
That hairy monstrosity is a guille suit for snipers and hunting,they are not cheap.

I really enjoyed your singing😊
It’s always a treasure hunt!!
Mike's pounding the pavement lookin' for heavy metals
Love your vids anytime you are able to provide. Handle family stuff i can wait.
Yay another Mike video ! You might want to think about picking up that camo gear (a good clean) might net you some $$ and that looked like netting used in camouflage .
Nice singing mike ❤😂 awesome video
Best thing on KZread
Thanks mike for another great video😊
Watching you from England. I think your great. Sense of humour ten out ten good luck to you both
Always fun watching Mike. Peace!
The last couple of vids remind me of my favorite hollywood actor. Slim Pickens.
Man I wish I could enter and exit dumpsters that easy.
Welcome back Mike , nice scrap run , thanks for sharing 😃🇨🇦
Glad you’re back! Hope all is well!❤😊❤
Sometimes it's something Right, Mike. Never go empty it's a blessing.
Hi again Mike, you should take all the Camouflage clothing you find as well wash it and sell it. There’s a big market for it and you’re missing out on money..
😂mucho dinero señoritas!!
❤nothing wrong with some much needed family time 🎉
Lite duty haul, but always worth seeing you in action.
HAPPY SUMMER ❤
Love the dumpsters!!!❤
Family always comes first, love your videos
Happy Summer Mike
Mike you are awesome
That grass thing in the dumpster with the big bobber cooler was a gillie suit
Piekne fanty😊
Glad to see you back .
Yay Mike❤
Hello Mike, Oklahoma here💕🌹🍀🙏
That "trailer thing" is a tow hitch for a VW Beetle. It attaches to the front suspension beam and the bug will follow along. About $150 or more these days. Looks like it even had the bolts included. Very handy for anyone that owns a VW Bug. Also saw a ghilli suit in one of the first dumpsters.
That piece that looks like a tow bar could be used to tow. VW beetles. Looks a lot like the one I use for our 1964 bug.
Thanks for another great video bud
Good morning ❤
Hey Mikeeey!! Whats up..
Hi Mike from San Diego, California.😂 Thinking of moving back to Texas❤❤❤❤❤❤.
17:00 save that shelving. Good resale value. Much better than scrap
Heck yeah Mike thanks for the video
Great video nice haul there Mike thanks for sharing
Bună Seara Mike,Te urmăresc,,Din România.Te iubesc
Good finds with the motors. Great video.
Mike leaves all the good stuff behind
Bro! The Flippers!!And the Camoo!!! $$$$$$$$
Sing it, Mike!!!
Love❤
Awesomeness ❤❤❤
That metal thing at 16:25 is a tow bar for a Volkswagen Beetle
VW TOW HITCH Mike!
Mike (6:51) it called a gilly suit for snipers, I have one.
Why didn't you take the soccer ball, Mike? You have a dog, and dogs like to chase soccer balls, too 😊
Mike, my oldest daughter and I took down a Direct TV poll the other day and I thought about you.
Go back and get that "hairy monstrosity" you tossed aside. It's a Ghiille suit! Looks like an alright one too! Man! I want it lol
That's not for a trailer, it's a tow bar for a VW. Thanks for taking us along.
14:40 I did get a pair of the same chairs for free...i just finished painting them... they did have a little bit of rust... it's £40 one at the DIY shop brand new... here in UK
I think that was a camo suit for hunting. The hairy monstrosity with the bobber cooler dumpster. Great finds for resale😊
Excellent video thank you for sharing this six stars brother
WILSON!! oh noes.. you let wilson go!! 😂
