Your exactly right aldo! Those are raised floor tiles and all that metal scrap he was gathering are the under supports for it.

That is what I was going to guess it was. I worked at a tv station and the master control area had a raised floor so they could run wiring easily if they had to move the equipment around and the tile sections were about that size. They had giant suction cups grips to lift the tiles with.

Wach you work hard

You had me so wanting to get back in dumpster diving and youngest granddaughter (she is 10 years old)saw you videos and said Papa can we go dumpster diving too. So we went out and that is when I found out that I cannot do this anymore. I have FSHD Muscular Dystrophy and cannot get up in the dumpsters or get back out. She said at least we tried Papa.

Nothing better than a daughter who loves treasure hunting with her dad. My daughter and I have been doing it for years, when ever we get a chance, she is 23 now and has Lupus which makes it harder to do. May I suggest Thrift Stores and curbside scavenging, you might be amazed what you can find once you start looking. Even aluminum can picking can net a few extra bucks on a good day. Hit the parks early A.M on Saturday and Sunday mornings for hundreds of cans. Prayers for you and your family.

Great suggestions, Paul. I am 77 years old. Two years ago I had two strokes, a day apart. I buy gas, and incidentals with the money I may scrapping out of a few choice dumpsters that I never climb into. Don't sell yourself short. There are ways to do this without being young and spry.

The first open top was full of a raised flooring system.

Reminds me of the floor tiles used that type of flooring systems used in a data center. Kinda makes sense with the fiber optic wires around there as well.

Hey Mike! Those panels look like the removable flooring used in an IT room

It is actually a suspended floor system for a computer / server room. The wires for the whole building (computers) are run under the floor. The steel parts are the frame and the big flat, heavy, pieces are the floor panels.

I love how you ask questions like you're gonna get a response. Want to let you know, I talk back. Lmao

He's definitely getting back into the swing of things his videos are getting longer. Thank you mike

It’s weird that it bugs the “ish” out of me when it’s right there and you can’t get it. Maybe you can do subscriber ride alongs. If I was with you we would’ve got ALL of it! Great video!

Awesome finds! So Worth the sweat come pay day! Thanks for taking us along and giving us some terrific camera angles tonight!

Mike's extreme workouts... loose weight, stay fit, great cardio, and a cash crop to boot! Love your vids Mike, very entertaining and personable. Would love to meet you in person, but live to far away.

Mike...those pannels are held together with bolts..a socket of channel locks would of enabled you to take them apart. Those pannels are used to make a elevated floor in electrical rooms...the cables leading to the cabinets lay on the floor..and they put those panels over them..all those straight pieces of metal are the legs the panels are attached to.

Yes, the raised floors are so cables can be run under them and into the bottom of computers or electrical equipment.

You are gonna sleep good tonight- MIKE!- WHAT A WORK OUT!

I watch ALOT of scrapping videos but this was THE BEST EVER! MISCLE BURN TOO

No Gym can beat a work out like this 💪. Unfortunately I live in South Africa, and wish I could swing by and give you a hand. Another wonderful work out video Mike 👍.

i got a scrappers high ,digging, nobody can say you won't work for your money , be safe stay happy! There will always be scrap!

MTS love the channel! Continued success. That there is raised/computer flooring to run cables in the void. I've pinched many a finger getting comfortable and letting my guard down with it. Cursed at it as many times as well. Occasionally they're not filled with concrete, though joyful, very rare to find as they weigh 35-40 lbs concrete filled. Keep scavenging and be strong Mike!

That's a whole ton of that galvanised metal there this place is a little gold mine Mike 👍👍

I was screamin at the monitor( your putting the crap on top of the aluminium diamondplate) 😆😆😆

Who needs the gym when you're diving like that? I was exhausted watching you!

BEST DIVE EVER!!

I would love that egg crate tile stuff for my drive way area that always washes away when it rains.

This is how much the few really feel about the environment. The many are recycling. God Bless and be safe.

Love finding these gems I somehow missed over the years.

Good morning ☀️

My 2 cents advice. Keep some water with you for all that work in the heat. Enjoy your videos take care.

Extreme Dumpster Diving: The latest sport at the X Games

Mike, you are a hard worker, no doubt! Just a suggestion though...if you toss pieces BEHIND you instead of pitching them forward, you would only have to touch them ONCE and not bury your scrap. Armchair quarterback here, take it for what it's worth. Love your sense of humor, it makes great videos. 🌝

Good Thursday afternoon to you sir in the USA from Wellington Somerset in the UK

Your tenacity is inspiring!! 👍🏻👊🏻

Dude, if that ain't a mother load or what?! A Desert Punk moment," Money, money, money!"...... 💵 💵 💵!

I have had a grand time being with you on your quest for copper. You are the best dumpster diver that I watch. It's amazing how I feel that I am with you getting my scrap on lol. Thank you very much for your mana'o. Aloha Mike Be safe.

Huge effort Mike !! Awesome haul !! Can't wait to see the scrap run 👍

Awesome video Mike. Lots of scrap and lots of work. Congrats on your find. Too bad you couldn’t take all of it. Blessings to you and your wife.

Stoked let's get it Mike.

Those dumpsters were bottomless. The more your extracted, the more came out of the woodwork. I kept yelling, "Cut the wire, Buddy! Cut the wire. Move the truck to the other side, Buddy!" You figured it out eventually. Nice haul, btw! The two dumpsters were sitting there, waiting for you to show up. Next time, try to minimize the throws, so your shoulder blades don't get overworked. Stack some scrap then toss them together into the truck. Dottie was wondering what was going on that day.

Can't wait to see the scrap run. Nice haul. 😊

That raised flooring in the open top would make nice patio in the backyard.

Every time I see Whataburger cups and bags it makes me sad. I miss my favorite burger chain. Might have to make a road trip from Detroit to get some.

Yay yay yay

Yesss sir Mike what a haul my guy, lots of scrap today so happy for you ty for a great video😎🤟

I find myself trying to help you pull stuff! You sure are determined. That’s what makes you Mike the Scavenger 💪🏻 Wires!

So much scrap that you have to step over scrap to get to scrap..Amazing find..

I have faith in you, Mike. You can do it!!!

Jane Fonda would have proud of this work out video! Digging hard Mike like my pappy said some days are apples and some days are lemons, then he would laugh and say ya gotta make lemonade 😂.

Ive said it before and ill say it again, nobody smashes on the scrappity scrap scrap scrap like brother Mike does, once again mind blown.!!

Hey Mike, love the videos. This one was some hard work. Maybe a cordless drill would have helped separate those big panels so you could have moved them. Hope the stuff is still there when you go back! Keep it up, will be looking forward to see how much you make out of that.

It,s always great watching Dumpster Daddy

Woohoo, bonus bin that one. 👍👍

You should display those giant pieces as art display. I really like the colors

Wow! Big score from one dumpster!!

What a fantastic dive Mike good on you 👏👏👏👏

You fight that trash. Loves u Mike

Sweat never hurt anybody ! There is still a lot more, there. You quit to often, but good job!! If very is a lot in the other one, but I know, you will talk your self out of it! I still enjoy watching you.

Why do I enjoy watching these videos so much? Am I a scrapper/ scavenger underneath it all?

Mikey, I think its the stuff the face buildings with. The metal pieces you were taking are the pins for securing the facing to the building. The dimples are just a sort of aesthetic pattern. We have them on tower blocks in London. and yes they do catch fire! so probably why you found it, it has been removed on safety grounds! Thanks for the joy!

When your spaceship is complete, go scrapping on the Moon and Mars, there is a bunch of abandonned probes and robots to retrieve up there !

Mike is super awesome to your video and very very nice work.I love your video

Exhausted just watching that Mike:) you got a good haul there!

Heck, those floor panels could be used as an outdoor groundcover.

Sometimes you move your head around so fast it makes me feel like a drunken sailor it ain't every day you can watch a good Mike video and catch a buzz at the same time and not drink nothing you moving your head around real fast does me good LOL thanks for the laugh mike have a great day

Awesome job Mike. Man, I was worried at times when throwing those heavy tiles near your leg/foot. Stay safe and cannot wait to see how much you made on this 👍🏻

Awesome scrap run. Awesome Job, Love your channel ❤️

i know some container companies actually separate the materials from mixed containers.

Dude! I spent 3 days FILLING my Rav4 from this business having closed down, small open top out front, had permission to be there, right? Delivery guy drives to a nearby address in the same complex, across the parking lot, I wave, he waves, good times. He delivers the package, comes back out and walks up to the dumpster, asks me how long I've been at it since I live in Georgia and it's a humid and hot 85° average afternoon (and it was around 2:30 at this point) I told him, and he hands me a protein bar, says I need it more than he does! That guy was a saint, as I thought I had grabbed my Gatorade, but it didn't make it to the car. Mike, I really wish I could teleport you some Gatorade and a protein bar, or myself to aid in your mission. I get that same way once I decide I want something. Keep on keeping on!!

Great haul, love you back. Be safe ☺

That feeling you were having trouble naming, when you've done more than you thought you could have - it's afterglow, lol. Great video.

Awesome haul Mike. You got some good scrap weight. I can’t wait to see how much it pays!!!

I keep waiting for you to pull out Excalibur ! You worked hard for this load. When you didn’t get excited about all that wiring I knew you were just about done. Probably going to have to take tomorrow off. Great job !!

Hay Mike that was a heck of a run there, hope it's all still there when you go back! I get a kick out of you talking while you dig, your funny as hell! keep it up mam thanks for the memories! lol, see you next time. Soon I hope

That was a great haul for a couple of dumpsters . I'd go back for sure - might be more and it might be easier

That Is The Scrap BiN! There’s Only Metal In It ! Come On Mikey!

The fight is real!!!!! Good job!!!

I am glad you got all of the metal that you could, but that should have been a metal recycling dumpster. We have all got to learn recycle and reuse everything we can . This earth will not last at the rate we are all dumping metal plastic and paper. Much less what we are using up to make new things like trees. No trees and we won't be able to breathe. Thanks for all you do.
