      aw yeah, like button SMASHED. What do you think about that dark/reddish spot on the second one that was cut? I thought it was pretty intriguing! The first one was a stunner, but I figured you knew that ;)

    I know it was only seconds Taylor but the suspense was electric. Wow so different, beautiful chambers and crystals in one and a light show in the other, brilliant.

    OMG! How much fun was that! I love ammonites and seeing the insides are awesome! That druzy one was the epic look that we all expect from a cut ammonite, but the other one, was actually super cool under black light, and even more interesting because it was so different! Great video! Thanks for sharing!

  • @kvg4790
    @kvg4790 2 года назад +10

    For the druzy one, did you cut right along the siphuncle? I was hoping that it would be intact. You may be able to see it on the one that’s been fully filled in.
    The siphuncle is a tube that runs through each of the chambers and allows the ammonite/nautiloid to control the amount of water filling the chambers, which are ballast tanks like those on a submarine.
