“Hey, the magnet is still working,”. “BOOM”.
Such an underrated comment
Lol
@@Jew1999 Yes
😂😂😂
That's an antitank explosive.
Always a joy to see expert archeologists at work preserving finds.
Good luck getting archeologists to do this kind of pit digging, slogging, backbreaking work on the Russian steppes, just to find the remnants of an industrial war.
Yes, exactly my thoughts after seeing this careful work.
Well Josh, I don't know. What do you think "archaeologists" have been doing for the past hundred years in the desserts of Arabia, the mountains of Africa and South-America? I don't think they took the 4x4 with the metal-detectors. And what these guys are doing is stupid and disrespectful to history. First, those Hafthohlladüngen looked pretty intact and although they look rusty on the outside, if the fuses are still intact and the inside charge isn't eaten, I wouldn't handle em like that. Second, why not dig a little bit further and take those crates out gently. They would have been intact. A little patience goes far. Every collector knows that. This is just plundering.
It was intended to be sarcastic. ;) Every find could also reveal remains of MIA soldiers, from both sides. Really a shame, that like this, these guys might be lost forever. :/
😆😆 Meticulous attention to detail !
Notice how the wooden ammo box he ripped apart with that hatchet, while rotten, was very high quality and dovetailed. A dovetailed hardwood ammo crate. Nice!
Yeah pity he broke it to bits
yeah true, i think they don't really care since they probably find alot of this stuff
I am astounded the wood still exists having been in the ground for at least 75 years!
These guys are a bunch of clowns really. They treat this stuff really badly.
@@jpole411 I just saw a video where a guy pulled a bolt action WW2 rifle from under a stump or something in a swamp. The stock was like new. It was hard to believe.
If this were "Time Team" they would be treating these Archaeological Finds with great delicacy, but these guys just go at them with a hatchet ! So much for History !!
you have a great talent at destorying finds.
As a kid growing up in Australia finding stuff like in old military dumps and ww2 sites was a continuing dream. Peak Hill being the one that set me off.
I'm also Australian and only heard stories from my dad when he worked overseas he had things about Biak and other things he was big into learin about the wars in the pacific. He worked overseas during. The 80-2000s I believe.
I'm glad you didn't say "set it off" lol. But hey you're right, I'm an Aussie, and as a primary school boy, most stuff I saw was in kids dad's sheds, or at the army surplus stands at the Royal Show.
What a great find. I really wish that the entire video would be transcribed into English so that we could understand everything you’re saying. I really hope some of the better things that you find your restoring them to save for future generations to see. Thank you for showing us what you find it’s really magnificent. I have a German 8 mm Mauser that was passed down to me for my grandfather who fought in World War II that he brought back. I treasure it and I would absolutely love to get my hands on his much ammo that you found and recondition it just for its sentimental value
Man, its funny you say that, looking at that ammunition I was thinking it would be fun to clean up the better examples and try shooting it just for the fun of shooting historical ammunition.
That's some dangerous digging. 80 years later and they still need to do EOD. Crazy.
They’re not preserving. They dig it up then throw it into the river. Bullets and all. Quite disrespectful.
Although it’s amazing to find these relics it’s a sad reminder of such a horrible war on your soil.
Buen video, una pregunta que le hacen a todas esas balas descubiertas..? Las limpian, le quitan el oxido?
Awesome finding. Thank you for Texas
Support your comment Jeff‼️Best greetings from ⛩🇯🇵Tokyo🇬🇧🇵🇱
Woooow...excelentes hallazgos, buen video y peligroso ok.
The five round clips are most likely for the Mauser, and the belted stuff for MG42/43
Thank goodness you dug that out of the ground after 80years of preservation so you could just rip it apart and destroy
Enjoyed the video well done on the finds
Awesome first guys. Looking forward for the next video.
Are the bullets still able to be fired if cleaned up? Or is the gun powder not good anymore?
super kanal pratim vas redovno samo Tako nastavire velki pozdrav iz Srbije
You find amazing things! Good work lads!
They are looking for the lost treasures! Would be too
How awesome. Seems like this belongs in a museum somewhere!
The bullets can be emptied nd cleaned up. Wouldn't like to mess with the mines/tank ammo though.
How do they find places to dig ? Are they random ? Do they have information from internet or maps ?
Oh look the primer on the tank shell is in great shape. Let me just tampon it a bit aggressively.
lol
those mines are a shaped charge. when they explode they invert that cone and turn into a super hot molten jet of metal that punches a hole in the armor. this is why they need the standoff distance provided by the magnetic legs
Jaw dropping finds!
I enjoyed your content very much!
Again, great and interesting finds. Greetings from the Netherlands 😎
Isn't there any danger of finding live land mines? I always had interest on metal detecting but never went to such unknown areas...
I think they all can't Explode because they're probably already so rusted together that they can't go anymore
Yes, but Russians are not beeches
Rusted or not I would think they are still dangerous and maybe unstable. I could be wrong.
@@derberliner1723 WW1 munitions explode each year, killing farmers etc so WW2 munitions are still potentially dangerous.
Old mines are just as dangerous as new mines. We still are removing ww2 mines on beaches here in Norway
What happens to all the small arms ammo ? I suppose thats safe unless its like thrown into a fire.
Many of those cartridges are in such well conditioned they may still fire neat
Some will.
“I wanted to take the whole box out..but it broke...” but you destroyed the box it contained in without any regard....what a travesty
I agree, It could have been a complete box if these guys knew what they were doing...
man i was shocked to see such a big piece of a tank
Two men in the air, one going up and the other coming down. The one falling down asks the other guy "You know anything about parachutes?" .The other one asks "You know anything about digging up ammo and artillery shells?"
Dont throw the ammo into the river comrade! the lead will poison the water!
I'd be downright terrified to dig up so much old ordinance like that, all it takes is a single unstable charge and one wrong hit of the shovel
UNBELIEVABLE FINDS WOW
Best to you, you guys!! From America....
Will never stop enjoying these videos. Very amazing work and skill to be so good at this.
I wonder if you washed and cleaned all that ammo if it go through a machine gun, even for it's age it looks good
Fair bit of 8mm Mauser you found there.
That would be great fun. 🤘
After you dig this what happens to all the stuff you dug up?
Sehr interessant. Wäre die gefundene Munition noch funktionsfähig? Viele Grüße aus Bayern. Marco
Ich würde es nicht ausprobieren, aber ein Mann sagte, sie wird aufs Revier gebracht und von dort hoffentlich entsorgt.
Если начать разберать то вполне возможно...
Good work - thanks! Хорошая работа - спасибо!
Great job
Painful to watch them destroy some of the things they found, like the ammo boxes
There's thousands of them like new out there,
He threw out all those stripper clips too? I hope not.
Demilled and restored those Artillery rounds are worth a good buck. I bet even the power is still useable as it is made of nitro cellulose... plastic flakes of nitro glycerine... very stable. Even waterproof it does not get wet.
If recovered and dried the flakes can be 'ignited' simply with a mag glass in the sun - amazing smell ! 😉
And those anti-tank "Hafthohlladung" grenades are worth 300 to 600 dollars each, in that condition.
Do you or can you sell things like helmets?
What do you do with the ordinances you find ...are thay still live .....???????😮
I would like to know what happens to the identity discs? Are they returned to Germany so their identities can be verified for their loved ones?? It’s also a shame that there’s so much senseless destruction - and it does seem dangerous. I loved Time Team but they were bona fide archeologists. They worked with a huge level of knowledge and had a deep respect for the fallen.
which country they are found
wie findest du all diese Sachen
That's cool.💯
Those are magnetic shaped charges IE a hand held panzer Faust
Good job!!!
Would some of those rounds be safe to fire or are they unsafe to do so?
absolutely unsafe.
Hello I've recently started watching your videos and I just wonder all the ammo and explosives you are finding, what are you doing with them after? Giving it to police to destroy it or they are going into museum? Are they paying you for this amazing finds? I'm from Bulgaria and for 1400years of war history soon I'm going to the South Frontline to look for Bulgarian, French, British, German, equipment and I can't wait to see what I can find, or probably blow up myself one day hahahahahahah
Don't suppose the ammo is for sale? Lol. Great find.
All I can say is wow. I’d love to have this stuff.
13:15...yes, those ARE dangerous-(!)
Fantastic find! But, where are the weapons?
What do they do with all the ammo and stuff they find?
Sent to some local museum perhaps
I think they sell it and make money to museums etc.
Whereabouts are they digging? I don’t need a grid reference, but by the same token, I know it’s the Eurasian landmass.
Super Like
even though this ammo seems useless I know some would still fire. I would pull the bullet with a puller clean the brass and sell it to reloaders.
Balls of steel!!
Amazing
I wonder how many millions of dollars were spent on ammo and other ordinance that were never used.
yes and man/slave hours wasted in a fruitless defence of the Reich.
How come you keep finding more more stuff but the hole doesn't get any bigger?
Did u keep the or referbish them to shoot
@ 6:30 when he finds the helmet its like he tipped someones brains out.
What were they thinking leaving behind all that ammo? Madness.
Maybe running for their lifes?
All this ammo can be cleaned and used. 80 years on.
What do they do with all these ammos... Do the salvage the brass and the lead ? I mean, they come by thousands of hundreds, so they have no collectible value.
I believe that original MG ammo is worth $100 a round here in the states. Soldiers shipped the guns home, but very little ammo made it back.
Nonsense. You can buy 8mm Mauser (7,92mm) everywhere nowadays. And old casings might be expensive but waaaay less than $100. I believe zib militaria from Germany used to sell them for around $4 - ready for export to the US as they had their powder charge removed.
@@BenDover-pr9gy 7,92....I guess you're in Europe? Anyway, we Americans prefer powder in our rounds. lol
@@bobhenry6159 putting powder into the original casing is easy. All old boomers reload their brass. $5 for the original brass&bullet, a few cents for the powder and primer, and you have yourself a cartridge indistinguishable from what Hans would have used on the eastern front. It's even better than using originals as the primers will have degraded by now to such an extend that it takes a second or two to ignite the powder. It's extremely irritating if you know what I'm talking about. Plus with 100% OG rounds you never know how it was stored which greatly impacts the pressure. There's nothing quite like the joys of having your vintage gun explode an inch from your face due to massive overpressure.
@@BenDover-pr9gy All that is fine, but lets not compare German Apples to American Oranges.
@@bobhenry6159 what are you talking about? I don't mean this in a bad way I really did not get what "apples and oranges"-comparisons have to do with 8mm Mauser. Btw, I've looked online for a few seconds and found 2 sites that sell OG ww2 Mauser ammo at $1-1,20 per round. Can't post links as yt auto deletes them but first one is "J&G sales" and second one is called "mg34" - both are live rounds, both located in continental US and both ship with FedEx.
12:17...those are "stripper clips" for rifles.
Very interesting
Not much in the way of trying to preserve any of the wooden crates which I would think were in great condition considering how long they've been in the ground. They almost looked like they were looters trying to find anything they could sell right away. Just Sayin'.
That is exactly what they are. They sell the stuff they find (except of course the ammo and guns) on Ebay.
Pretty sure they ARE looters.
👌
Where there’s muck there’s brass!
I'll bet most of that 7.92 belted ammo would still fire through an MG34
I love their finds but hate the way they treat all of the artifacts.
No wonder much is destroyed when excavation begins especially like this madman with an axe! Could at least dry and preserve all from those boxes
Ativem a legenda em português do Brasil. Conheço umas 20 pessoas que acompanham vocês. A legenda em português facilitaria muito! 🇧🇷😎👊
tem mais um aqui
Why do you destroy the box? You know that there is ammunition. Are you looking for something of more valuble hidden in there?
Why are theses such dangerous finds? They can just blow up?
There's got to be some chemical you can wash that amo and get it back to near new again
What can you do with the ammunition?
make a layout. drill and pour the powder out of the cartridge.
Que Deus Abençoe Grandemente Sempre Sempre a Gloriosa Rússia 🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Why would you throw them in a river ? 😮
Wet ammo is unstable.
But no boxes full of weapons..
гильзы от 45 можно сдать в цветмет.
Guys this is great but what happens to all this stuff.
7,9-миллиметровые боеприпасы для M48 и пулемета. фантастическая каждая часть. мне непонятно как он столько лет оставался погребенным и кто его после войны закопал
После боевых действий сапёры и закопали....у нас это до сих пор по полям разбросанно...
Меня всегда интересовала вторая война. У меня не было столько страшных войн, как у тебя. У меня был двухсекционный швабский шлем. Но в нашей войне, когда на нас напали хорваты, они были Они похитили все, когда подожгли
Да война это дерьмо...просто при желании у нас ещё можно найти интересные артефакты 2 мировой войны.. в Сталинграде...
@@ottoyurich6041 Ну так там серьёзное месиво было.притом всё проржавело за столько лет.
@@user-ly1ez9jh7z не совсем так.... всё зависит от грунта...
Only hope the don’t edit out the UXO explosion, these people are crazy any explosives and detonators only get more sensitive with age and are totally unpredictable.
Great video!! Great finds!! The mines and other ammo you find aren’t they unstable and dangerous with the potential of explosion?
Some of them are. It takes guts to participate in a project like this.
@@azwris ever seen anyone get blown to bits because the shovel hit something it shouldn't of???
Big difference between stowed or fired ordonance, but more years does indeed not mean more stability..
@@geemeff it has happened yes lol
Yes!
Do you guys ever get blown to bits.....
Why dig them up if you plan to throw them away?
