One good thing about Adventures with Purpose is once they are involved with a case, its not forgotten, whether they find someone or not. If they go search and find nothing, they will leave But if they get new information on the case, they will return. They are a very determined group of people. Ive been following Jared since he started and thats the way he's always been, just like all the other people that work with AWP. They recently solved another case in Lakeland, Fl. They had searched everywhere they thought the person would be, based on info they had, without results and were about to move on to the next case. The Sheriff's Dept gave them a piece of info that they did not have. They followed it up and solved the case. It was a great joint effort on behalf of the Sheriff's Dept. and AWP to get results.
Jan's case was wild. To be found in a new pond, just 18in of water from the surface. Seems she had driven down the dirt road and driven into the pond. She had pre-dementia and couldn't see at night & didn't have her glasses. Poor lady. So glad her family was able to find out what kinda happened to her and have her now. That was the last location AWP planned on searching too. The diver who went in was literally standing on the car. Had anyone went swimming in that pond I'm sure she would had been found sooner.
@@arbitraryname7273 I'm sure bc the car was green like the water. Those ppl never used the pond apparently, I guess with it being Florida the neighborhood kids never went swimming in there. Plus her going into the pond before the homes were built too. That was a sad case. Her husband of 30yrs divorcing her then getting someone else pregnant & then losing her wallet. My heart breaks for her. She must of been so upset.
@@VHM2018 I think it was more than 18". I think it was from the top of the car to the surface of the water was 18". The kid was actually standing on the roof of the vehicle. But it was definitely crazy. If I were a kid I would be playing in there and potentially found it.
So happy that ABC has done a segment on AWP. The more people who learn about them, the more support they can receive, which translates to more families whom can be helped.
Adventures with Purpose, Diving with Nug, Chaos Divers, and Diving for History work together to help solve these cold cases. Those RUclipsrs are angels online who have helped solve over 20 cases combined. AWP works with the other 3 to help cover more ground, and they willing share their skills with others interested in doing the same thing.
“I filed so many missing persons reports, and each time they ask for a picture… I don’t have no pictures left.” This broke my heart. I am devastated this happened but I am glad that her mother and daughter know. I cannot imagine the pain of not knowing. Grief is hard enough as it is. I know they must be struggling hard even though they found them. I can’t even imagine.
I think it's got to feel great knowing that she didn't abandon them. She wasn't kidnapped and held in some basement dungeon. She didn't run off with some creepy new boyfriend. It was just a tragic accident. That has to bring some kind of peace to them
In just about two years (as of early April, 2022) AWP has found 21 missing people, and the bigger group (including Chaos Divers, Adventures With Nug, etc) are up to 29 people brought home to their families. That's also 21 whole families that can now stop spending every day wondering, worrying, and searching. They can grieve and put their energy back into their own lives. A truly beautiful purpose.
I'm a 250 lbs black man and when I see this and videos like this my eyes are wet and runny what these families are going through is very hard and what these men are doing is so godly I pray that all the families have peace and there love ones are found or come back if there alive God be with you all
I never get tired of pointing out that that the woman was a teen mom who drank while pregnant. look at her daughter, definitely fetal alcohol syndrome. As far as I'm concerned, she should have continued to rot under the water.
These guys found my husband's coworkers wife after she went missing for almost 2 or 3 years, and it was amazing to see how quickly they found her and how much relief it brought to the family. These guys are amazing in ways I can't even explain.
This has truly been the best segment I’ve ever seen someone do😭 That girl absolutely tore me apart and so mature given the situation. The answers she’s given herself💔
I felt sorry for the grandmother, Debbie, as she had so much guilt, because she kept the 4 yo girl, but told her daughter she couldn't keep the 2 yo, and so Samantha drove off with Courtney planning to take her to a friend's house.
A number of decades-old missing persons cases have been solved in recent years simply by searching nearby bodies of water. People have spent decades wondering what happened to their loved ones, only to find out (assuming they were still alive when the news broke) that they were right under their noses the whole time.
Yes it is nice to have closure on missing loved ones.. However there is a dark side to Jarred.... He is very forceful and repetitive on searching private property ponds!!! A lot of folks that say no are not on you tube for you to watch.. They don't need to be paid because YOU TUBE pays them from subs and viewers like you and I. I was watching them from the start it was just Jarred, Nug came later.. They looked for hidden things we don't see and cars even rare ones.. I seen his DARK SIDE to people that don't want to be involved on their property and he has little to no respect for the answer NO!! To those of private property!!
@@timothym33 I would disagree. He is there trying to help. There has been 1 time he wasn't allowed on. I don't think you have your story straight and the wording is way off. There is no dark side to Jared. He's putting himself out to help and doesn't understand why humans are so cold to helping. Unless they are hiding something.
@@timothym33 on which instance(s) have you seen them "forcefully" trespass on private property, against the property owners wishes? Every video I've watched so far that involves private land, they're usually very careful to film themselves stating they're going to ask the property owner for access, and will even film the conversation with the property owner if they're agreeable to being on camera. I can recall on one instance they were denied, since the property owner didn't want to be publicly associated with the case, and had a false sense that law enforcement (who had already searched their pond) was the beat all to end all on water searches. And BTW, what's wrong with them being compensated by RUclips? Do you think fuel, food, insurance, scuba gear, camera gear, recovery gear, vehicle maintenance, expenses from their home lives, ETC, ETC, ETC are all free to them?
They are doing what police, fire, and EMT cannot do. I really love the service they provide, and for free because of the money they are able to make with their videos. This is a such a unique public service.
Sadly, sometimes it's not because they CAN'T do it. It's because they don't have the funding to do it. I sincerely wish that more states would put some funding in to dive teams that can be utilized to do searches like they do.
Police, fire, EMT have hundreds of cases every year they don't have the money people, and newest gaget to search for every missing person in 2021 521,705 people went missing almost 22000 murder cases. these guys have the time and money for it they don't work on multiple cases

The messed up thing about this is the cops that show up to these usually get pissed at the divers for doing their jobs for them. They find people in a matter of days when the police have taken years and found nothing. You guys are vital asset to everyone keep doing what you're doing.
that only happen once 2 years ago with the Nicholas Allen case and it was a detective with a massive chip on his shoulder that should not have that job as he aint fit for it, since then all the cops we seen have accepted them sheared case info with them to try and solve the cases
And even Jared said that without the high tech equipment, and sometimes even with it, it is possible to miss a car. Many counties cannot cost justify a diving team with good skills And up to date equipment especially if there has been no need. BUT I bet if 5 or 6 counties formed a group to share resources., Something could be done to find state and federal grants. It's a thought.
@@patriciastrassner4883 But it's easyer blame the police for the people the forgot that they have not have the newest equipment to that or time or people in 2021 there was only in the usa 521,705 missing person almost 22000 murder cases there is no way in hell they can do what this guys who have the newest equipment bunch of time and only one case at the time
Adventures With A Purpose Is AWESOME. We’ve been following them for a few years & they are the most wonderful, generous & heart loving men around. Giving Freely of their time & hard work efforts. Everyone should be donating to help this team bring closure to lost loved ones. They are as real as it gets.
I live they’re getting more and more recognition. I remember watching their videos a few years back and to see them here on the news helping spread the word and help these people is just awesome ! Great people who get a lotta crap from law usually when they find something the cops didn’t but hey , they’re healing families!
These guys are AMAZING!!! What a wonderful and selfless way to positively impact the lives of those left behind. GOD’s continued and most abundant blessings to these men, and healing to the families that they have and will assist.
This family and so many other families are blessed to get the chance to know where their loved ones are thanks to AWP and other search and rescue teams. Even though it's hard when they are found, it is like the daughter said, at least she knows where her Mom and little sister are. It is so great that we have people out there like AWP and other dive groups that are helping these people find their loved ones!!! This case is in my state and I'm proud there are groups like this who will come to Arkansas to help these families out!!
Most police do have dive teams, but, there has to be proof or a definite direction pointing to underwater before they are mobilised. Otherwise it’s a waste of resources. Law enforcement just like the rest of emergency services are not well funded. AWP offers their services for free because they are operating off of “guessing”.
@@vandemanferretstasmania.ni9576 and not to mention that most local police, sheriff's offices and search/dive teams don't have the latest state-of-the-art sonar equipment that AWP has.
Most places the police have access to a dive team, but they can't call them in without concrete evidence or tips for economic reasons. there is also the fact that the police have to deal with a lot of limitations and red tape a group like AWP does not have to deal with
The police are restricted by a lot of things; budget, training, personnel, and jurisdiction. If a person from County A goes missing and they may be in County B, who is going to search? County A can’t. County B doesn’t want to expend resources just based on a hunch from another area. AWP doesn’t have those limitations. Also, personally I want law enforcement first of all to protect me and others, and get criminals off of the streets. Let experts on finding people in vehicles in water, like AWP, do this work and be supported voluntarily. When it gets to the point where it is going to be a recovery and not a rescue and no evidence of a crime, it of necessity is going be lower priority to law enforcement. This is where others, like AWP, fishermen with sonar, etc can accomplish more because of the massive amount of time that can be dedicated to it at no cost to the family or community. The recent recovery by AWP in the retention pond illustrates this. At least three boats in the water, AWP, Nug, Adam Brown, Depths of History for 2 full days. With law enforcement and support personnel, that would amount to months of manpower to achieve a 15% success rate or over a year of manpower for one recovery. How many crimes could be prevented or solved with that? I am so glad that these groups are able to do this and bring at least one answer to a grieving family and I am willing and have supported this effort.
Those guys are unintentional heroes and such beautiful souls! I am subscribed to their channel they do such important work. More people need to be like them.
Omg! This story is very crucial for anyone who jumps to conclusions without considering the worst case scenario. At the beginning I was almost blaming the mom...
Y’all should watch their videos and see just how poorly they are often treated by law enforcement! Some of the cops act like they are coming to “steal a prize” from them. ALL LAW ENFORCEMENT should take notes and realize how necessary it is to have a dive team, dive equipment, and a small boat with sonar. So many more people would be recovered! AWP should be hired by the government and should train law enforcement officials on how to properly search and recover a missing person and vehicle from the water. 20 people, some cases cold for YEARS, all in just a few years. AMAZING WORK AWP CREW!!!!
The only one that gave them an issue with that one for Nickolas Allen. All the other law enforcement seems to be happy for the help. The sheriff in this case was so happy that they were available to help.
You have no idea how much this would cost. Our local fire and ambulance is volunteer and fight to get updated equipment that's not specialized like this. Then there is the training. Ongoing training that takes time and money. These guys do important work and not every law enforcement agency is like that. But remember there are laws and regulations and privacy issues. AWP has learned a lot through each search. Each situation is different. Even the guys have said they don't like to get involved if there is criminal activity. There's more happening than you know.
AWP, Chaos Divers, The Nug, Depths of history are all Angels helping these families get answers.Jared goes outside the box to get answers. Truly amazing teams.
I love you guys! Doug, Sam, Josh, Jakob... I know I'm leaving out people, but I enjoy seeing your hearts and the empathy you have for the families. Thank you for hanging in there through the recent "unrest," that I know has been distressing. Keep the faith! Never give up! Never surrender!
I can’t imagine throughout the whole world not even just the US that there’s people who have Gone through similar pain and grief and loss. I wish the world wasnt this way. Death is something I still have a hard time grasping
Adventures with purpose is an amazing team! It’s my favorite RUclips channel. I’m glad they are getting the recognization they deserve! I don’t have much hope in the police when it comes to this stuff anymore, I have more hope with these guys than I do the police
The guys of AWP derserve the attention! They are amazing in what they do and they do not even demand payment! THAT is AMAZING and HUMBLE since the equipments they use are not cheap! Keep up the great work boys!!
There's another team coming soon. They are putting everything together now. It will be the first of it's kind as I'm female and heading the team. I already have 2 cases lined up. Now to work on getting the equipment and dive training for my kids father.
@@sylviajohnston6622 it will be around fall that we can get started. One of the 2 first cases we have planned is in CT and the other is out of Isabella/Clare Counties in Michigan.
Congrats to Jared and his team for another successful search. You've provided the family with the ability to establish a final resting place for their loved one.
I ABSOLUTELY love Adventures with purpose. they are amazing guys and what they're doing is invaluable. I'm so thankful for the wonderful people that they are and they've helped give closure to. thank you for recognizing them. 🙏
Just amazing to watch, how they recover peoples loved ones being able to just come home I actually had chills watching especially when they were lifting that body from that river you can feel that spirit of the person , this show offers more than just hope its a feeling you get for the family's " I Love this show"
Gosh I remember watching him when he dived in his local waters and was cleaning up trash (can's / junk) out of the rivers/lakes he went into then evolving when they'd find cars.. Remember back then PD would be upset with them for taking these cars outta the water then it went to "searching" for missing and the now it's where they are finding many missing ppl helping families "know" where their loved ones were... I'm glad More and more Police Departments accept and appreciate the help... The great thing is these guys don't have the same rules PD does so they are able to do more searching.. Thank AWP for what you are doing to help these families.. and thanks to all PD's who accept their help..
Exactly! AWP is only limited to if it's a private lake/pond and if they get permission. Now that they've had so many success stories and document everything, more private property owners are willing to let them search. It's the ones that don't that always make me wonder if there is something they are hiding. Police on the other hand, they have to have the equipment and the time and training to do it. It always amazes me at their reactions to Jared showing them how he finds the vehicles. They have that look of "Wow! If only we had people that knew how to do this!"
I remember watching one of their videos from a few years back where they found a 16 year old boy who committed suicide, who was a fan of their channel and the kids mom said "He knew if anyone was gonna find him it'd be AWP" and the police from that area were extremely hostile and got a lot of backlash for how they treated the AWP crew and the family, who had told the police to check the river and they never did and lied about having done it.
How many times have these guys been on the news? Pretty much every time they find a missing person/s? Either way the work these guys do is astounding giving the closure that these families need.
I've watched Adventures with Purpose from the very beginning when it was just Jarod and Sam (Samtheadventureman). There really is no price that anyone could put on the peace of mind that Jarod and all his helpers give to these families. It isn't just Jarod (although the $$$ all goes to him). To give these parents, children, friends and all family members who have been searching for years & years for their loved ones the answers of what happened. Well , it truly is priceless. God bless them.
Sorry , but that's a clueless comment , Before Sam , AWP found , one body , 6 guns , and there are 145 videos . So do you mean , Sam didn't say anything about the money he got ?
Love these guys they are so respectful of the families and do this for free they want nothing more then to help bring peace to these families so they can move forward and grieve knowing what happened to their loved one. AWP thank you for what your doing you are truly angels on earth. 🙏🏻👍🏻♥️
I've been subscribed to these amazing guys for awhile and I absolutely love them they are so amazing ... keep up the great work you do and thank you for ALL you do 👏
Congratulation guys for a solving everything that you need to solve and you're doing it by spirit and by heart for those ones that have never been found
This crew is a true hero. They did the job the police and firefighters should have done. It's amazing to bring news to a family where they thought they would never get an answer to this mystery that haunts them. I'm sure the victim's family must be very happy that this crew has found the bodies of their loved ones
Unless I missed it, there is one thing that wasn't mentioned here. Her mother was 8 months pregnant at the time of the accident. So she lost her mother and two younger siblings that day.
They need to be on TV. They could get things out even more. Come on ABC. It would be great to watch. It would help more and more. God bless all of them for what they do and God bless the family they help.
One good thing about Adventures with Purpose is once they are involved with a case, its not forgotten, whether they find someone or not.

These guys are AMAZING!!! What a wonderful and selfless way to positively impact the lives of those left behind. GOD’s continued and most abundant blessings to these men, and healing to the families that they have and will assist.
I've been following these guys for years. Glad to see they're finding even more success with this media coverage.
This is a wonderful way to spread their work.

I watch this episode on awp RUclips and I told my girl watch with me and see what great people they are in helping loved ones
These guys should be sponsored by Discovery or Nat Geo. They deserve the funding to expand.
These folks are awesome...they do such good work.
Prayers 🙏 for all the family and friends take care everyone
This family and so many other families are blessed to get the chance to know where their loved ones are thanks to AWP and other search and rescue teams. Even though it's hard when they are found, it is like the daughter said, at least she knows where her Mom and little sister are. It is so great that we have people out there like AWP and other dive groups that are helping these people find their loved ones!!! This case is in my state and I'm proud there are groups like this who will come to Arkansas to help these families out!!
What the story doesn't mention is that Samantha Hopper was also 8 months pregnant when she went missing, so they lost THREE family members that day.
They're an amazing group of people with hearts of gold!!
Wow! Great heroes, thank you for doing what u do. God bless both of you.
I respect and salute ADVENTURES WITH PURPOSE for all they do and have done for family's out there. Amazing RUclips channel. AMAZING! 🤙
It's a shame that police don't have dive teams to do this same thing.
Most police do have dive teams, but, there has to be proof or a definite direction pointing to underwater before they are mobilised. Otherwise it’s a waste of resources. Law enforcement just like the rest of emergency services are not well funded. AWP offers their services for free because they are operating off of “guessing”.
@@vandemanferretstasmania.ni9576 and not to mention that most local police, sheriff's offices and search/dive teams don't have the latest state-of-the-art sonar equipment that AWP has.
Most places the police have access to a dive team, but they can't call them in without concrete evidence or tips for economic reasons. there is also the fact that the police have to deal with a lot of limitations and red tape a group like AWP does not have to deal with
The police are restricted by a lot of things; budget, training, personnel, and jurisdiction.
If a person from County A goes missing and they may be in County B, who is going to search? County A can’t. County B doesn’t want to expend resources just based on a hunch from another area. AWP doesn’t have those limitations.
Also, personally I want law enforcement first of all to protect me and others, and get criminals off of the streets. Let experts on finding people in vehicles in water, like AWP, do this work and be supported voluntarily.
When it gets to the point where it is going to be a recovery and not a rescue and no evidence of a crime, it of necessity is going be lower priority to law enforcement. This is where others, like AWP, fishermen with sonar, etc can accomplish more because of the massive amount of time that can be dedicated to it at no cost to the family or community. The recent recovery by AWP in the retention pond illustrates this. At least three boats in the water, AWP, Nug, Adam Brown, Depths of History for 2 full days. With law enforcement and support personnel, that would amount to months of manpower to achieve a 15% success rate or over a year of manpower for one recovery. How many crimes could be prevented or solved with that?
I am so glad that these groups are able to do this and bring at least one answer to a grieving family and I am willing and have supported this effort.
Well done! Kudos! Warm greetings from Kazakhstan to all good people regardless of where you are from!
Thank you so much. Warm greetings to you, also!
Wow, I wish I could give these two guys a big hug! They have blessed so many families. They are such an inspiration. God bless them.
This story is very well done. Kudos to the reporter & much appreciation to AWP for helping such families get closure.
Those guys are unintentional heroes and such beautiful souls! I am subscribed to their channel they do such important work. More people need to be like them.
There was a third victim in this case. Samantha Hopper was 8 months pregnant. It would be nice if the media would acknowledge her unborn baby.
Good people.
Omg! This story is very crucial for anyone who jumps to conclusions without considering the worst case scenario. At the beginning I was almost blaming the mom...
Y’all should watch their videos and see just how poorly they are often treated by law enforcement! Some of the cops act like they are coming to “steal a prize” from them. ALL LAW ENFORCEMENT should take notes and realize how necessary it is to have a dive team, dive equipment, and a small boat with sonar. So many more people would be recovered! AWP should be hired by the government and should train law enforcement officials on how to properly search and recover a missing person and vehicle from the water. 20 people, some cases cold for YEARS, all in just a few years. AMAZING WORK AWP CREW!!!!
The only one that gave them an issue with that one for Nickolas Allen. All the other law enforcement seems to be happy for the help. The sheriff in this case was so happy that they were available to help.
You have no idea how much this would cost. Our local fire and ambulance is volunteer and fight to get updated equipment that's not specialized like this. Then there is the training. Ongoing training that takes time and money. These guys do important work and not every law enforcement agency is like that. But remember there are laws and regulations and privacy issues. AWP has learned a lot through each search. Each situation is different. Even the guys have said they don't like to get involved if there is criminal activity. There's more happening than you know.
AWP, Chaos Divers, The Nug, Depths of history are all Angels helping these families get answers.Jared goes outside the box to get answers. Truly amazing teams.
They’re NOT called “Adventurers with Purpose” they’re called “ADVENTURES with Purpose”
I love you guys! Doug, Sam, Josh, Jakob... I know I'm leaving out people, but I enjoy seeing your hearts and the empathy you have for the families. Thank you for hanging in there through the recent "unrest," that I know has been distressing. Keep the faith! Never give up! Never surrender!
To know that your mother did not leave because she didn't want you, to know that you were loved has to mean everything!
I can’t imagine throughout the whole world not even just the US that there’s people who have Gone through similar pain and grief and loss. I wish the world wasnt this way. Death is something I still have a hard time grasping
Please give that lady her pictures back
Jared, Doug and the whole group are so humble, I love them. Thanks for getting their team out there! ❤
Adventures with purpose is an amazing team! It’s my favorite RUclips channel. I’m glad they are getting the recognization they deserve! I don’t have much hope in the police when it comes to this stuff anymore, I have more hope with these guys than I do the police
The guys of AWP derserve the attention! They are amazing in what they do and they do not even demand payment! THAT is AMAZING and HUMBLE since the equipments they use are not cheap! Keep up the great work boys!!
So happy for Jared! He's helped soo many families out there! So glad to be a subscriber to the adventures with purpose. 💜
Thank you for this excellent report on this amazing movement which is growing to include other dive teams so they can cover more territory.
There's another team coming soon. They are putting everything together now. It will be the first of it's kind as I'm female and heading the team. I already have 2 cases lined up. Now to work on getting the equipment and dive training for my kids father.
@@carriebaker5161 That's great! Looking forward to seeing another team in action.
@@sylviajohnston6622 it will be around fall that we can get started. One of the 2 first cases we have planned is in CT and the other is out of Isabella/Clare Counties in Michigan.
They should give the pictures back from the file
What she means is that she doesn't have updated or newer photos. All her photos are 23 years old and she can't provide much more.
These guys do such an amazing job finding people that cops can’t , love the closures they provide for these families.
Congrats to Jared and his team for another successful search. You've provided the family with the ability to establish a final resting place for their loved one.
I think this is a highest moment for awp because Abc news is putting effort to report this movement.
Thanks for highlighting good deeds of people in the community
I cry every time they make a "discovery" for the knowing now and a renewed loss. But they finally can take them home. AWP YOU ARE THE BEST.
I ABSOLUTELY love Adventures with purpose. they are amazing guys and what they're doing is invaluable. I'm so thankful for the wonderful people that they are and they've helped give closure to. thank you for recognizing them. 🙏
Crying in empathy. Poor girl. Ive lost family by violence. Pain of breaking heart. Keep on being that loving mother...
This isnt about finding someone and things go back to normal. Its about closer.
Just amazing to watch, how they recover peoples loved ones being able to just come home I actually had chills watching especially when they were lifting that body from that river you can feel that spirit of the person , this show offers more than just hope its a feeling you get for the family's " I Love this show"
Gosh I remember watching him when he dived in his local waters and was cleaning up trash (can's / junk) out of the rivers/lakes he went into then evolving when they'd find cars.. Remember back then PD would be upset with them for taking these cars outta the water then it went to "searching" for missing and the now it's where they are finding many missing ppl helping families "know" where their loved ones were... I'm glad More and more Police Departments accept and appreciate the help... The great thing is these guys don't have the same rules PD does so they are able to do more searching.. Thank AWP for what you are doing to help these families.. and thanks to all PD's who accept their help..
Exactly! AWP is only limited to if it's a private lake/pond and if they get permission. Now that they've had so many success stories and document everything, more private property owners are willing to let them search. It's the ones that don't that always make me wonder if there is something they are hiding. Police on the other hand, they have to have the equipment and the time and training to do it. It always amazes me at their reactions to Jared showing them how he finds the vehicles. They have that look of "Wow! If only we had people that knew how to do this!"
I remember watching one of their videos from a few years back where they found a 16 year old boy who committed suicide, who was a fan of their channel and the kids mom said "He knew if anyone was gonna find him it'd be AWP" and the police from that area were extremely hostile and got a lot of backlash for how they treated the AWP crew and the family, who had told the police to check the river and they never did and lied about having done it.
How many times have these guys been on the news? Pretty much every time they find a missing person/s? Either way the work these guys do is astounding giving the closure that these families need.
I’ve watched several of the RUclips channels recovering and solving cold cases via diving. Great to see they are getting the attention they deserve.
I've watched Adventures with Purpose from the very beginning when it was just Jarod and Sam (Samtheadventureman). There really is no price that anyone could put on the peace of mind that Jarod and all his helpers give to these families. It isn't just Jarod (although the $$$ all goes to him). To give these parents, children, friends and all family members who have been searching for years & years for their loved ones the answers of what happened. Well , it truly is priceless. God bless them.
Sorry , but that's a clueless comment , Before Sam , AWP found , one body , 6 guns , and there are 145 videos . So do you mean , Sam didn't say anything about the money he got ?
Love these guys they are so respectful of the families and do this for free they want nothing more then to help bring peace to these families so they can move forward and grieve knowing what happened to their loved one. AWP thank you for what your doing you are truly angels on earth. 🙏🏻👍🏻♥️
Really makes you wonder just how many missing people have been in waterways just out of sight for years
What they do is heart warming.
Thank you abc, AWP deserves this recognition!
I've been subscribed to these amazing guys for awhile and I absolutely love them they are so amazing ... keep up the great work you do and thank you for ALL you do 👏
These guys are heroes!
Was fabulous to see San Sam the Adventure Man featured on here although not by name. They were a great team.
this is a nice youtube channel to watch and two men with gold heart helping for free familly find they love one missing
I think 20 missing person cases solved by a crew of civilians with help public donors in less than 3 years is impressive.
It's 21 now , but if you add the other divers that are in the movement , it's 29 .
Love Adventures With Purpose!
Adventures With Purpose. Just three words. Not, "Adventures with 'A' Purpose.
These folks are amazing people!
Congratulation guys for a solving everything that you need to solve and you're doing it by spirit and by heart for those ones that have never been found
This crew is a true hero.
They did the job the police and firefighters should have done.
It's amazing to bring news to a family where they thought they would never get an answer to this mystery that haunts them.
I'm sure the victim's family must be very happy that this crew has found the bodies of their loved ones
WOW! I actually shed tears.
What these guys are doing is amazing, environmental cleanups and solving cold cases in the process!
Look how many times the missing are found in the water. What a sad story. Mothers don't tend to leave their children.
Unless I missed it, there is one thing that wasn't mentioned here. Her mother was 8 months pregnant at the time of the accident. So she lost her mother and two younger siblings that day.
true
She would’ve never left you honey!!!
These guys are the real deal. They've helped thousands of families. Godbless them🙏
Easy there fella ...LOL not thousands. They've dove 110 locations and they've solved almost 30 cases... glad they excite you though🙂
Thousands? No. But yeah, they're the real deal, and I consider them heroes.
@@mattpike7268 how do u know it's not thousands? U don't you're just running them 🍆 suckers
Thank you for your help! God bless you and your families
Such a tragedy! But glad they were found. Poor ladies. It literally brought tears to my eyes.
They need to be on TV. They could get things out even more. Come on ABC. It would be great to watch. It would help more and more. God bless all of them for what they do and God bless the family they help.
