I never thought I would watch a 30 minute video of dumpster diving

The first time I came across your clips I have been hooked, even on off day I love watching your excavations of dumpsters with humor and great commentary.

The amount of new stuff people chuck is astounding.

Sometimes it's a matter of people being cheap.. My work has had a construction company and a moving company decide our dumpsters were free to use and save them money getting their own and would fill up our recycling dumpster with trash. Pissed us off to high hell because then we couldn't even use it for it's purpose. (I've even had to drag a room's worth of piss and shit on carpeting out of it before)

Never have I ever seen someone get so excited over stuff in the dumpster 😆 This is what makes your videos so interesting and entertaining 😅

Every time’s a good time with you, Mike!

I love the classical music in the background! Vivaldi is a favorite! Who would have ever imagined that combo!

The new rails look so FINE! I enjoy when you find some odd scrap and you take a moment to see what it is. I've learned a lot from your curiosity. :)

You are a great man. Watch you all the time. Nice job on the sides for your bed of the. Learning a lot from you. My wife loves the way you tell everybody the parts you pick up.

it's like opening Christmas gifts all the time. full of surprises and mystery. i just love it despite some risks of injury and poisoning and getting dirty.

Funny guy, I like your content and especially your excitement. Imagine walking by when he's found something nice and hearing from the dumpster: HELL YEAH, WOHOOOO!! 😂😂

Mike your a great inspiration to all Americans and through out the World. We watched you through the years get rags to riches and loved every minute !! Your the Best ! ~ Mike the American Hero !!

Mike, I come for your commentary and stay for the scavenging. Dottie’s boards looking good!

Love Dotties new dress. Had a great time diving with you tonight. 👏👏❤️💙

I love your commentary, Mike. You embellish the job description with a sense of humor.

When Mike finds some good shit its like Christmas all over again! "Ooooh, look at that, yeah!!" I'm lovin it 😍 Thanks Mike you make dumpster diving look exciting every time!! ❤💯Di

Hey there Mike, How's it going? Always looking forward to watching you dumpster diving. 🙂🙂🙃🙃😊

Ha! When you found the smoke alarm and it started beeping, My cat Pepsi, who was on my desk got scared.(she hates anything that beeps over and over) She ran to the safety of her hidey hole under the sink! She does this with my microwave and with my air fryer! I'm amazed that she can't discern the sound live or on video! Great video as always, Mike!

Mike, you rock. You absolutely don't need any critique from me but I teared up a little when you left that silver back mirror behind. I'm not physically able to hit it like you do anymore. I work the scavenging from a different angle these days. Back in the day we called it "living off the fat of the land". Keep killin' it, yo

Super Mike !! Saving the world, one pound of metal at a time ! Keep up the great work and vids Mike.

As kids we would dumpster dive and such great treasures how fun! Great job.

Love it when you hit a big score, you work hard enough for it, all those little bits add up and are like your pot boiler, always there in the background. Thing is if brass is bought by weight, what does it matter that its all small or just one large bit. Take care out there, i just enjoy looking over your shoulder on your nightly ventures.

True Fan here, Mike, through thick & thin, good & bad. You're the best! Watch your head wztch your head! God bless you & your family.

great energy, great personality, a love of life and very talented.

The upbeat positivity you display in your videos is helping me through a tough 6 months or so. Thanks Mike. Much appreciated!! 👍👍

I love watching your videos…even when it is a slow night. You always make me laugh. Keep up the good work Mike.

The shining reference when you were beating a hole through the drywall was hilarious.

My wife says, 'you could have a youtube channel too' and all i can say is that my potty mouth would seriously limit my subs.

Those T-Storms went right past us last night! All we got in north Austin was a lot of wind! Glad you got done and headed home! You be safe out there in the Urban Jungle Mike!!

Just love listening to you as you look for treasures. Funny funny funny 👏🏻👏🏻👍👍

I love your show ❤ you pick up after yourself every time 🤩💞

pulling busted hotel paintings out of the trash: "What is that, a Monet?" I love this man XD

It's 4:28 a.m. and I should be going to bed...but how can I when a new MTS shows up on my subscriptions! Good morning from Tasmania *chuckles*

Imagine looking out of your window and seeing/hearing this guy yelling about the oak in your dumpster with a soothing classical BGM. Dude is living his best life.

I am so addicted to your dumpster diving..... Very excited each time you upload new videos

I'm always on the hunt for free boxes and packing materials (cardboard sections, bubble wrap, etc.) because I live nowhere near a box store or other store with such items, so it hurts to see you throw it all aside so casually!

Those aluminum sticks you found with the Christmas trees those are grids from inside of windows.

I've been watching you for years but have never commented until now! I think your hilarious especially the way you talk and get really excited over the scrappy scraps! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I'm a fan for as long as I live! I love your "show" i look for you every day!

Wouldn't you like to do a test and collect all the coke cans/energy cans for a week and see how four aluminum you can get together? I also collect all the cans and a lot comes together.

Hello Mike. I just found your channel and I must say you are a very agile young fella. 😄People don't know or don't care what they throw away. It's found money and you are doing the environment a great service. I'll be watching from Canada 🇨🇦 God bless.

The music!!!! I feel sophisticated just watching this ❤️😂
