I wonder why some people can't take a break from their preoccupation with being political , religious or just hateful and jaded and watch something a little bit interesting or educational without bringing all your baggage to the comment section. Believe what you believe , live and let live , mind your own business and shut the hell up !
Fred Gritts ah wow! Ain’t that the truth. Nothing worse than having some nutter trying to convert you either religiously or politically. Atheism is REAL, religion and politics are just cruel! Believe what you want just fuck off out of my face! And then there was...........
mark daniels - Those hyper partisan knee jerk reactionaries are the biggest problem with this country. Trumptards and Libtards alike. They judge people based on how they vote. They truly believe that you're a bad person if you don't agree with their politics. They automatically look for a 'D' or an 'R' to know who to agree with rather than think for themselves. They create unnecessary divisions and imaginary problems in society. They all have more solutions than there are problems. And they create more trouble than there was before.
Don't doubt that the Russians don't troll posts just like this to foment existing division. It's entirely possible. And remember, they will play both sides of the argument.
... No. In 1982 I watched them pull a woolly mammoth out of Ravenna. Turns out they travel in herds. And there are mastodons and wooly mammoths all over the state. This is not a rare find in Michigan. It is, however, a million dollars of skeleton. The one they found half a mile from my house is standing in the Grand Rapids public museum right now.
Ravenna? Lol I didn't know anyone else has ever heard of it. I am from CA but uncle lived there for many years. My Gram has a 100 farm next crick over in Nunica. I was thinking about grabbing a shovel and heading out! However lets just say I did and found a skeleton, my family would frown on me wanting money. They are farmers and only expect money from working a hard day. Farmers are the most awesome people. Kind and honest. Be honest. You know damn well if that farmer was given 1M, his life wouldn't change much at all besides getting caught up on bills. That is the only type of person I can say that about, a farmer.
It's amazing what kind of unknown history from different ages you can find nowadays; I live by a state park that was once a bunch of open plains long ago.
Shawn Bottom As stated below farmers are decent people but after donating it I’m sure those he gave it to will benefit financially off of his generosity. With one of the highest suicide rates in our country coming from farmers who struggle to make ends meet I would have preferred he see a windfall from this. It surely would have paid for some desperately needed equipment or towards his kids college education. Greed? Come on now, he’s a farmer that money wouldn’t be wasted on flashy car or other crap. What he’d invest it in would be an investment for us all.
Martin Longbow Millions off his taxes??? You’ve got to make it to be able to take it off. Think... he is a farmer remember? He’ll be lucky to stay ahead of his creditors.
My husbands family lived in Michigan, his grandfather was a farm, lots of land, even Maple Trees & a sugar shack. Quite a long time ago his grandfather found part of a dinosaur can't remember which kind. I'm not sure the exact order of what went down, but the part he found eventually ended up at THE SMITHSONIAN. I'll give more details as soon as I can ask him.
We are neighbors to this farm. It was not a drainage pipe and it wasn’t the farmers. It was a gas line being run across the county from a pumping station to another pumping station. However it was a pretty cool find less than a mile away. You can see it being restored in the museum in Ann Arbor. Shame was the gas company gave them 11 hours to dig it up so they could move on.
So, ancient humans killed this mammoth and dumped him in a lake with rocks tied to him? Seems the Mafia's use of cement shoes has a much longer tradition than we thought.
Exciting find for FISHER AND HIS TEAM????? It was the FARMERS find, NOT Fishers. And the University should have given the farmer some type of remuneration for the loan of the bones, more if they wanted to purchase them.
The farmer donated it to the University. They're on display at the natural history museum there. Along with a video showing the find and highlights of the one day dig. The reason why it was only 1 day was the farmer needed to get his irrigation system, and he only had a few days to get that in. There's a plaque there and it is called the Bristol Mammoth. Yes, I've been there and seen it. The stills in this vid are all from the University's video.
Eric, I would strongly agree with you, except that the farmer chose to give it to the museum, a noble and commendable act, on his part. That is not an uncommon response for a person interested in sharing knowledge with the world. I am sure he could have gotten some sort of remuneration, had he wanted to. Assuming he is not a starving farmer, I believe he did the correct and laudable thing.
He should still get credit for finding it. Given that he is a farmer, not a scientist or researcher, the credit is really just bragging rights, not something that will advance his career in agriculture. He might not have known exactly what it was, but he understood enough to seek the right people, and he should get credit for making it a gift to the museum, a genuine gift of knowledge. I get your point but I still think he deserves credit and respect for his generosity
Contrary to popular belief, not everything is about fame and fortune. However, i reserve the right to change my opinion in the unlikely event that i ever win the lottery..
When they use words like "found something, hit something hard, was it a piece of wood, was it a stone"....and repeating them over and over, it gets boring.
That's how these morons keep you watching. I get tired of it. Trying to muster up excitement doesn't work. You only find out WHAT was found in the last frame. At that point I couldn't give a fuck.
It's seams that's the way it's done these days. All talk. Takes forever to get to the point. I know my grandfather and father would never be able to handle this form of reporting. If you had something to tell them. Or had a question. You better get strait to the point. No B.S. But that was in the age of printed info.
In Michigan and Ontario, in some parts of the year, it can be half that temperature one week and the next week that hot, or vice versa, hot one week and the next week cold. When they FIRST dug the drainage ditch and encountered that thing, it was 79 F, after they communicated with the University et al, and after they finally organized plans, and after they hired workers and got the right equipment for pulling it out carefully, several days or several weeks later, then the weather changed to chilly and they wore their jackets.
@Charlie Montana It is ALREADY ON DISPLAY, half-wit! Just because this person made a video of this (from other people's postings) and uploaded the video in 2018 doesn't mean it is a CURRENT event! The bones were found in 2015 and there are other ways to read about it than watching this pathetic excuse for an informative video!
Tonight I’m sitting alone just digging up bones. Here lies Jumbo best friend a cave man ever had R.I.P. They by chance discovered the ever elusive elephant grave yard. Once thought forever lost to modern man as to its whereabouts. A monument could be erected there to keep it from being lost once more, a victim of the passage of time. Pharaoh had the same thoughts as to his own tomb. But it ended up alerting later date tomb robbers as to his final resting place and his substantial stores of gold. Call before you dig.
So here's the story from my first post; I was my husbands great grandfather, (the farm was in the family for several generations until just recently). His great~grandfather was just a lad.when he found a huge, what looked like a leg bone, when he was helping his dad work the land. His g'g'father took it & showed his teacher who took it over to Hillsdale College. From there it was sent to The SMITHSONIAN in DC. Turned out to be a Mastadon. When they were done digging there they had a complete one. After they put it back together, had a plate made about who found it & where the family took a trip to see it. This was in Michigan near what they called Four Churches, near Hillsdale, MI.
@@Terry-tu6dl their mistake. I've been hearing about this subject since he found it. It's in the same area of rural Michigan... kinda south of ann arbor. Where my friend happened to go to school, Once upon a time. Bruce's farm is right down the road... Bruce being my friend's father... the dude was at bruce's wake down at the local pub...
Raymond Garlick holy shit!! I think I remember hearing about that when I was a kid, I'm from Saline the next city over they found that near a furniture store that was kind of new at the time if i remember correctly? point is I remember hearing that it was found in Clinton also not in Chelsea like the narrator said
In the documentary America, The Story of us, they mentioned mammoths may have been around till the time the first Europeans came to America. Not sure if that's true but it would be interesting.
When I was young, neighbouring farmers always helped each other out with equipment and labour for the different jobs that each of them could not manage. Eg Farmer B would mow Farmer A's hay and Farmer A would help shear Farmer C's sheep... and Farmer C would mend Farmer B's walls and fences... then all would descend on each farm in turn to bring the hay bales to the barn. The meals put on the table were enormous. All this was done for no payments.... keeping costs down and enabling marginal farms to survive. Farmers' social standing (prestige) was set by how many favours they were owed by others (ie by how many favours they had done for other farmers). Every farmer had a rough mental tally of all this 'reciprocity' as sociologists call it. Now it is all contracted to subcontractors for money, but the old system still operates in France where it is called 'Community Farming'. Pigs and Hens were killed on the farm which meant less distress and suffering and no travel to the slaughter house. The pigs were just led into the threshing shed and culled there. There was no squealing because they were looking forward to a handful of pig nuts, which they were given before the stun gun... and no pain. Some things we did better fifty years ago.
Back in 1962 there was a similar find across the road at 4071 Duffield Road Lennon, Michigan. This was about a 1/25 mile to the south of Bristol Road. The remains were taken to Flint. The dude was digging a pond when they found it. Eaglegards 🦅 ya heathens...
Dee Marie Dubois Because it is worth a lot of money. He should talked to a tax attorney about his many options. It was kind of him to donate it, but he should have looked at his options
I am sure the University wrote him a nice letter thanking him for his donation and valuing it at ???$. The IRS will then call that a charitable donation and adjust his taxes accordingly
Who has the most to gain by supporting climate denial? Never thought about big money petroleum or auto makers? , Its the status quo that wants to convince feeble minded people nothing is wrong, People should listen to the real news not fox news or con men trolls. The conserbs are hateful angry people who like to follow their clan, right or wrong, And the wealthy people are laughing all the way to the bank with their taxs cuts that we didnt need. Future generations will pay for the greedyness and selfishness of today's electorate. God help us
The NWO thing was brought up by some psychos in the 90s. Also is going green is a huge thing. With thou dress or thousands of pages proving its real. So Charles your sounding like the ignorant one.
WoW, it must be so exciting to find that 1 little piece of treasure! When I was young, I went treasure hunting, in my back yard. we 😍 lived on an acre of land, &I found many "Indian spear 🎣 heads, or arrow head's. I 1 time, found A 🌟 necklace filled with rubies &emeralds, it from 1800'shundreds! I was never told the value, but, I 'd sure 😂 like to have all those, Indian, arrow heads! I THANKS for sharing your 💭 stories! Took me back to A, far away place! . "Li'L dreamer ~
There are many bones that have been found in Michigan. In Dearborn remains of dinasours have been found and preserved very good do to lack of oxygen in the mud as well as in a lake in Florida. A fully preserved human was found that looked as if it had just passed. In fact it was close to 5000 years old. Nothing was missing the skin still had it's color and elasticity along with hair. All do to lack of oxygen.
The time frame is wrong becuz nobody knows the REAL time frame of anything for sure. "They" also want us to believe Columbus discovered America. Yet the Indians were here, there is evidence of people living in the Grand Canyon, there are findings like Viking swords and other objects thru out America, AND pyramids recently discovered near the Atlantic coast (I believe it was South Carolina?) All and all, the more that is discovered... the more the timeline is getting questioned.
Except that donations like that serve to inspire young minds to get into the sciences and give back to the larger community. When I was a kid, my father took me to the natural history museum in Ann Arbor, and I spent hours staring at the mastadon and allosaurus they had their. From that beginning I developed a keen interest in the natural world. Now, I am a molecular biologist for a vaccine company that helps fight diseases all over the world. All because someone gave those old bones to a museum rather then sell them to a collector.
MC - Ummmm, that's where the scientists are. And the money that ensure that these things are properly preserved and studied. So, please explain exactly what you have against higher level education.
The problem with this video, in my perspective, is the attitude of absolute authority and diligence that academia has over "everyone else"! How many times has academia, authority, government, education....LIED to you in the past? The smugness of them! Just sayin'
Up to 15000 years old? That's a lie in itself. Its already proven that carbon dating is flawed. Anything to disprove creation, and promote evolution, is always mans agenda.
James, carbon dating has been proven to be very accurate. Its your church that has cherry picked a few examples of incorrect dating and has applied it to all dating and methods. You have to ask yourself why they would do that? Are they hiding something?
@@mojavered. First off, I don't have a "Church." like everything else, man has added to and taken away from, and I don't buy the false doctrine they teach. Secondly, carbon dating can be manipulated to say whatever you want it to. There are too many variables that have changed of the centuries. Air quality and atmospheric pressures for starters. I'm not going to debate you, on the word of Yah. You believe what you chose, and I will do as I chose.
I dont believe anything. Its either fact or not fact! No belief involved. Atmospheric pressure and carbon in the atmosphere? Read a book why dont you and learn something before you spout out nonsense about thing the you clearly dont understand. The peer review model doesnt work well with dogmatic views and agendas.
I'll have a bet that those rocks were the instrument of death, when they were carried by water and ice into the poor beast during the great flood about 9600 BC. I'd say it was then covered by mud, which hardened, preserving it somewhat. Probably plenty more around too, which would explain his reluctance to "find" more.
well I guess this farmer is well off with no kids or grandchildren to send to college...I would hope his own family comes first...it could have been auctioned off to the college or museum willing to pay the most...maybe he is wealthy

Omg I remember when that happened they have those tusk in a museum I had went to when I was in second or first grade
If more people would take this guy's lead and NOT be greedy, the world would be a better place.
Those tusks are awesome and attached to the skull, hope they give farmer credit in the museum exhibit.
WOW! I grew up on a farm in Dexter Mi and went too high school in Chelsea Mi. I never found anything this COOL!!!!
I'M loving it,l always wanted to be a person who does this for a living, that was awesome.☺

Millions off his taxes???
You’ve got to make it to be able to take it off.

Wasn't his choice, he has no choice. They weren't going to let him hang it in his barn if he wanted. They took it.

Wooly mammoths are just like modern-day elephants and they eat rocks just for the body to be able to help break down food
I was thinking that too. Even my pet budgie would sometimes eat some of the clean silica sand granules after a meal of millet seeds.
What a great find.
So, ancient humans killed this mammoth and dumped him in a lake with rocks tied to him? Seems the Mafia's use of cement shoes has a much longer tradition than we thought.

Michael W Well.... Tony Soprano DID look a bit like a caveman.....
Yes, humans have been murdering and torturing animals since they first appeared on earth.
Great find
There's some nice paleo points somewhere around there. Probably deep under the mud but could be exposed on one of those hills
I said the same thing if he would just dig for miles no telling what he would have found
What an awesome thing to happen on my birthday!!
Exciting find for FISHER AND HIS TEAM????? It was the FARMERS find, NOT Fishers. And the University should have given the farmer some type of remuneration for the loan of the bones, more if they wanted to purchase them.

Just how far down were they going to lay that pipe!
Usually below the frost line.

Definitive answer, all the way to the bottom !
Can I tell you????
I'd like to know how the he'll they knew to dig that deep? Something don't add up here
One could only imagine what lies beneath the ground that we will never know.
I dug a whole that big when I lost a pound still never found the bastard!!
Fuck that! I wudda sold that shit to the museum with the highest bidder!
The photos don't indicate it was 79 degrees. Too many long sleeves and jackets.
Libertarian 4 Ever: Why would they put that 79* statement in there when it’s obviously cold out??? Liars!
In Michigan and Ontario, in some parts of the year, it can be half that temperature one week and the next week that hot, or vice versa, hot one week and the next week cold. When they FIRST dug the drainage ditch and encountered that thing, it was 79 F, after they communicated with the University et al, and after they finally organized plans, and after they hired workers and got the right equipment for pulling it out carefully, several days or several weeks later, then the weather changed to chilly and they wore their jackets.
absolutely correct. the weather can go from 75 to 55 in a whistle.
You wouldn't catch me wearing a jacket at u9 degrees!
West Nile virus is rampant in Michigan
Very very nice
I would allow the university some data gathering time and then ended their experience. ..That sucker would have then been mounted in the barn lol
That would be impressive! A plaster cast would be better, the weight of the tusks would prevent mounting.
Farmers are down to earth people, no pun intended. If that had been found in Hollywood, it would have cost them.

Good article... I agree it was in a pond. A very big Pond it's called the flood

All is too inclusive a word in this instance unless you are making a joke.
Right. No farmers no food.
When I was young, neighbouring farmers always helped each other out with equipment and labour for the different jobs that each of them could not manage. Eg Farmer B would mow Farmer A's hay and Farmer A would help shear Farmer C's sheep... and Farmer C would mend Farmer B's walls and fences... then all would descend on each farm in turn to bring the hay bales to the barn.

Now it is all contracted to subcontractors for money, but the old system still operates in France where it is called 'Community Farming'.

Looks like he has his Halloween costume for this year.

Chance1957 Why?
Dee Marie Dubois Because it is worth a lot of money. He should talked to a tax attorney about his many options. It was kind of him to donate it, but he should have looked at his options
Rented it to em !
I am sure the University wrote him a nice letter thanking him for his donation and valuing it at ???$. The IRS will then call that a charitable donation and adjust his taxes accordingly
Sweet. That would be pretty cool to find something such as this. I’m from michigan to. Why didn’t I dig in my back yard.??
A farmer giving something away ? He must be one of those rich farmers.
I love it. Wire ties
Have a good day everyone god bless you!
Ty. Anabelle, Bless you too. We need more ppl who just want to be kind to each Other . You never know what the other person is going through .
Fuck off!
Anabelle Talstein God's blessings upon you as well.
A cool find now, Facts! Be well now, Facts!
How did man cause the ice sheets to melt off the continents . Global warming is a NWO ploy to cut cars and other things we use .
They want to use it as an excuse to tax the air we breath.
Idiot.
Ramen Grow up fool !
Who has the most to gain by supporting climate denial?
Never thought about big money petroleum or auto makers? , Its the status quo that wants to convince feeble minded people nothing is wrong, People should listen to the real news not fox news or con men trolls. The conserbs are hateful angry people who like to follow their clan, right or wrong, And the wealthy people are laughing all the way to the bank with their taxs cuts that we didnt need. Future generations will pay for the greedyness and selfishness of today's electorate.
God help us
The NWO thing was brought up by some psychos in the 90s. Also is going green is a huge thing. With thou dress or thousands of pages proving its real. So Charles your sounding like the ignorant one.
U go on and on and on
Whoa, did you really just place a "looser click here" image at the end of your video? That is not cool. Is this channel really that petty?
Loser - not looser. I believe it's a joke to try to get more likes.
WoW, it must be so exciting to find that 1 little piece of treasure! When I was young, I went treasure hunting, in my back yard. we 😍 lived on an acre of land, &I found many "Indian spear 🎣 heads, or arrow head's. I 1 time, found A 🌟 necklace filled with rubies &emeralds, it from 1800'shundreds! I was never told the value, but, I 'd sure 😂 like to have all those, Indian, arrow heads! I THANKS for sharing your 💭 stories! Took me back to A, far away place! . "Li'L dreamer ~
A WOLLY MAMMOTH SKULL?!?!?! OH MY GODDDDDDDDDDD?!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!
Extremely awesome find btw.
I thought this would be about Jimmy Hoffa
Lol
@Steven Wilson Too many speed bumps to dig up.
Jimmy Hoffa was incinerated to ensure never to be found.
He is a very deep concrete footing somewhere. Or he was made hamburger and some people had him for lunch
Kevin Moore
He's under the 20 yard line at the meadowlands.
What are they trying to tie the drain pipes to,...... the bottom of the ocean !?
Let them borrow the bones, maybe. Donate them, never.
Would have been interesting to have had a rough idea of the size if this mammoth . They looked pretty big bones to me .
The state should reimburse him for time lost. Farming is all about timing.

There are many bones that have been found in Michigan. In Dearborn remains of dinasours have been found and preserved very good do to lack of oxygen in the mud as well as in a lake in Florida. A fully preserved human was found that looked as if it had just passed. In fact it was close to 5000 years old. Nothing was missing the skin still had it's color and elasticity along with hair. All do to lack of oxygen.
The time frame is all wrong. Just sayin'.
The time frame is wrong becuz nobody knows the REAL time frame of anything for sure. "They" also want us to believe Columbus discovered America. Yet the Indians were here, there is evidence of people living in the Grand Canyon, there are findings like Viking swords and other objects thru out America, AND pyramids recently discovered near the Atlantic coast (I believe it was South Carolina?) All and all, the more that is discovered... the more the timeline is getting questioned.
@@izzybarr2710 who is "they"?
A Farmer has a Big Bone.
Hope fully he got a good payday for the bones no money wow
Think what we walk and drive over every day...….and never know it
I'd NEVER EVER !! donate ANYTHING !!! To these College,s ! He a Damn FOOL !!!!! Makes me MAD JUST THINKING ABOUT THIS !!!
Except that donations like that serve to inspire young minds to get into the sciences and give back to the larger community. When I was a kid, my father took me to the natural history museum in Ann Arbor, and I spent hours staring at the mastadon and allosaurus they had their. From that beginning I developed a keen interest in the natural world. Now, I am a molecular biologist for a vaccine company that helps fight diseases all over the world.
All because someone gave those old bones to a museum rather then sell them to a collector.
@@NorthForkFisherman very well said. In that case, it's more than worth it.
My father deserves all the credit.
Museum ! Yes !! A College NO !!!
MC - Ummmm, that's where the scientists are. And the money that ensure that these things are properly preserved and studied. So, please explain exactly what you have against higher level education.
How exciting!
My ancestors used to eat them.
ChefGiovanni oh yeah? Well my neighbors wife is one!😳
I am crying for him now.
Michigan is full of buried good stuff ! I wish there was good stuff around my place
Should’ve sold dem bones, would’ve paid for his tile job.
I found one bigger than that metal detecting. It was so big I just left it in the hole and took home the penny with it.
More like 6000 years ago during the Flood of Noah.....
Just wondering why you went out of your way to correct me....Instead of correcting the liars behind the video? Either way... The flood was real.
One hell of a Mammoth dig LOL😇
cool. love 🐕 s. & archeology. Creek near my home has dinasaurs feet prints in stone! Xtreme Justice & 🐕
Started to watch this but couldn’t be bothered to watch it all.
The problem with this video, in my perspective, is the attitude of absolute authority and diligence that academia has over "everyone else"! How many times has academia, authority, government, education....LIED to you in the past? The smugness of them! Just sayin'
Up to 15000 years old? That's a lie in itself. Its already proven that carbon dating is flawed. Anything to disprove creation, and promote evolution, is always mans agenda.
James, carbon dating has been proven to be very accurate. Its your church that has cherry picked a few examples of incorrect dating and has applied it to all dating and methods. You have to ask yourself why they would do that? Are they hiding something?
There is zero evidence for creation! Try proving creation. Remember that disproving one theory doesnt prove another theory.
@@mojavered.
First off, I don't have a "Church." like everything else, man has added to and taken away from, and I don't buy the false doctrine they teach. Secondly, carbon dating can be manipulated to say whatever you want it to. There are too many variables that have changed of the centuries. Air quality and atmospheric pressures for starters. I'm not going to debate you, on the word of Yah. You believe what you chose, and I will do as I chose.
I dont believe anything. Its either fact or not fact! No belief involved. Atmospheric pressure and carbon in the atmosphere? Read a book why dont you and learn something before you spout out nonsense about thing the you clearly dont understand. The peer review model doesnt work well with dogmatic views and agendas.
I'll have a bet that those rocks were the instrument of death, when they were carried by water and ice into the poor beast during the great flood about 9600 BC. I'd say it was then covered by mud, which hardened, preserving it somewhat. Probably plenty more around too, which would explain his reluctance to "find" more.
well I guess this farmer is well off with no kids or grandchildren to send to college...I would hope his own family comes first...it could have been auctioned off to the college or museum willing to pay the most...maybe he is wealthy
Not everyone is greedy!
After reading many of the comments, I have come to the conclusion that public education has been bye and large, a total waste of time and money!
