Finding the Captain
Join me on a 12 year journey to find a long lost muffler man deep in South Georgia. Fueled by an old picture and the mystery surrounding it, I set out to find the long lost giant. Meet the other people along that journey, each playing a crucial part of one of the greatest giant finds of all time!

Awesome story. Great video.
That is one lucky Muffler Man!
So glad you found the captain. I got chills when you came around that corner in the woods and caught first sight of him. It was like something out of a post-apocalyptic movie. Thanks for all your efforts to save him. I'm excited about being able to see this guy at the museum some day!
Amazing as always. What a story. What a rescue. What a herculean effort by many people. Will be so sweet to see this guy back up and standing. Amazing.
What a great story! So glad you were able to find him after all this time. Long live the Captain!
Amazing story, glad he was rescued
Such a great video! So thankful for your work in saving & preserving this cool story! So glad you finally found the sailor!!! 💙

An incredible story. This is so cool.
What a great video!
Great video. I am in Tampa and I keep meaning to go see the Dade City MM. All the other area MM have been taken down/sold (US 41, Fletcher, Zephyrhills and Dale Mabry)
this is so amazing! thank you for saving Americana one giant at a time. Sounds crazy but stuff like this gives me hope. Our country is in trouble.

We hope to restore the hat and put it on another head for indoor display
This is a super amazing story!! Thank you for preserving history!!!
I live seven miles from Atlanta and can't wait to see him!
Such an amazing story! Your determination is to be admired. Thank you for rescuing Captain Muffler Man! I have been to the American Giants Museum in Atlanta, Illinois.💜
In the future, you need something like a wide enough rickshaw to cart a giant on wheels through the woods. Dragging them out is no fun; on wheels is better.😀

Great video! I never knew my grandfather since he passed before I was born, but learning about him now as an adult I can appreciate the history and information more.

@@caveman31750 My pleasure, glad to help tell the story and huge thanks to your aunt for contacting me and telling her fathers story and sharing his pictures.
Amazing story and video! A small quibble: we call this Middle Georgia, not South Georgia. (Douglas is South Georgia though.)

Thanks! I'm still learning.
What are the odds a small family owned transmission shop would ever be able to find and own one of these fantastic giants? God bless you
Amazing story! Would have loved to have been there on that path when you walked up on him.

I agree, every time a city calls me and wants to buy a giant I roll my eyes. Essentially that means, do a ton of work for them only to have 12 people sit around a table and disagree with each other and take 8 months till they finally pull the plug. I'm done working with cities.
