Good on the archeologist for inviting you over. I really enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing!
I'm very happy and grateful about this opportunity! I'm also happy to hear that you enjoyed my video :) thank you for watching!
all the best,
hans
Hans, your production and narration skills are outstanding I really enjoyed this film. I'm beginning to think you should have your own TV channel as long as you can maintain your own values and not become sensationalist as TV seems to be these days. Keep up the good work!
hello tony,
thank you for watching and for your kind words about my video! I'm happy you like it and that you even think that my work has tv potential. but as you said yourself TV nowadays always has to be sensationalist and mainstream. I think I'm too silent for TV and I'm not willing to change anything just to fit in there!
all the best,
hans
Very interesting thanks. Regards from Australia
thank you for watching and greetings from germany!
Enjoy the direct nature of your questions. It’s refreshing.

WOW exciting and interesting! i really like the WWII metal detecting. Cheers Hans
I'm happy to hear that my friend :) I hope to be able to return to this beautiful place next summer!
thank you for watching!
Hello friends! Thank you for watching! Please like and share to support me! Thank you very much :)
GREAT PRODUCTION!!!!!! Congrats on finding the dog tag it may give someone closure! my father's dog tag was returned to me recently ( he passed away 30 yrs ago) although he survived the war, the dog tag gives a us a link to the young man who started our family so long ago!
Thanks for your kind response. The dogtags found in the area are all lost or discarded by German soldiers or units. That said they are very powerful mementos of the sodiers who visted the camp 1942-1944.
Good for you Hans! The appreciation well deserved!
thank you for watching and for your kind words my friend :)
Hans, as always you are setting a fine example for how metal detectorists and archaeologists can collaborate in furthering our knowledge and preserving the past. Congratulations and continued success. I hope this example leads to further opportunities for you. All the best.

Hi Hans what n interesting video I love the way you make your videos they are very professional and well made thanks for sharing them with us
Thank You Hans, great trip, your videos are so interesting !
Great video Hans! WW2 has always been an interesting part of history to me, on either side of it. So thank you for sharing and how the archaeologists go about recovering history.
thank you for watching and for your kind comment my friend! I'm happy to hear you like my video!
all the best my friend,
hans
Sehr gut Hans!
vielen lieben dank mein freund :)
I am heading to Stuttgart on the 5th. So excited. Thank you for sharing and taking us along on your adventures
have a great time in stuttgart. it's a beautiful city!
thank you for watching :)
Great video again Hans, and good to see a Finn and a German side by side in the interest of detecting and saving history.
thank you for watching my friend, I'm glad you like my video :) It was a very interesting trip and I met a lot of very nice people!
Thankyou for sharing your adventure Hans, a great advert for showing how we can work together with archaeologists. Look forward to your next video.
hello andrew :) thank you for watching and for your kind comment! the future of the relationship between archaeologists and detectorists is a matter of dialog and mutual understanding. jan is a modern archaeologist who is reachig out his hand to detectorists and that's a great thing!
all the best,
hans
I truly enjoy your channel
I'm happy to hear that my friend :) thank you for watching!
Great video Hans! The cooperative efforts of metal detectorists and archeologists has always interested me. I will be attending an archeologist/ Metal Detecting expedition for 1 week at Montpelier, Virginia. This was the plantation Home of James Madison, 4th president of the U.S.A. I will be helping the archeologists find hot spots for future historic excavations.
Thank you for all your hard work producing your wonderful videos. Fred
hello fred,
thank you, I'm happy to hear you like my video! the future of the relation between archaeologists and detectorists lies in cooperation. I'm sure you will enjoy your exciting trip and I wish you a lot of fun, GL&HH!
thank you for watching and for your kind words. fred!
all the best,
hans
A genuine classic. I really enjoyed that video Hans. One thing that intrigues me is the difference between how a metal detectorist digs a find and how an archaeologist approaches the 'dig'. You were in your element with this video, brilliant, thank you very much x
thank you for watching and for your kind words my friend :) ... there is a big difference of course in the way detectorists and archaeologists dig. we were looking for sites worth excavating and for this reason spot tests like the ones we did are quite useful.
all the best,
hans
Great vidio Hans, good to see co-operation between you both and a very interesting part of history
thank you my friend, I'm glad to hear you like it! dialog and cooperation are the only solution! I'm very happy about this opportunity!
As always, it's a delight to watch your videos. Your attention to detail, but also the mood of your content is absolutely wonderful. I know I'm late in commenting this, but thank you so much for content worth watching.
Thank you for watching and for your kind words :) I appreciate your support!
excellent quality and content Hans; I enjoy your videos very much; it is great to see people working together; all the best
thank you for watching and for your kind words my friend :) I'm happy to hear you enjoy my videos!
all the best,
hans
This was a fantastic video. I search for History too thru Genealogy. Now I see you have many more WWII EXPLORATION AND detecting videos. Will be watching them all!! Thank you for taking us along. Plus I learned some History I did not learn in School 50 yrs. Ago. Beautiful scenery!!
I'm happy you like my video! thank you for watching and for your kind comment. I hope you will like my other videos too! all the best and greetings from germany,
hans
Nicely put together video and wonderful opportunity to help. Good job.
glad you like it my friend :) thank you for watching and for your kind comment!
Wonderfull Hans. What a nice opportunity to detect in such a camp.
thank you my friend, I'm glad you like my video! It was indeed a great opportunity and I'm happy to be able to share it with you all :)
thank you for watching!
Nice video Hans,good to see the gap bridged between a detectorist and an archeologist!.Finland look's beautiful.
Take care,Neil.
hello neil,
I'm happy about that, too! it was very interesting and I hope that the relationship between archaeologists and detectorists gets better and better!
thank you for watching and for your kind comment!
take care, too and all the best,
hans
Awesome, absolutely awesome Hans!
thank you my friend, that's very kind of you :)
Jan's Kiss t-shirt tells me that he is one cool archeologist. Great video Hans, very profesional.
he indeed is :)
thank you for watching and for your kind comment my friend!
Very nice video, Hans. You can easily realize that even less that 100 years old finds can be also archaeological objects and relics.
thank you my friend, I'm happy to hear that you like my video! thank you for watching!
that's true- - there is so much information in this recent archaeology even though the time is well documented.
Lovely surprise Hans. Thank you for this video! Great job in filming and editing your awesome metal detecting. Keep up the good work!
thank you for watching and for your kind comment my friend :)
What an amazing opportunity.
I agree completely. Just can't understand how Hans could go to Finland and not stay for at least a week. :) Great video as always Hans. And yes, I know you make English speaking versions of your video, Hans.. I just was not going to wait even a second to find it. Just watched the German version, then went to find the English one. haha Have a great day all.
It was. . I hope to be able to return there in summer next year :)
thank you for watching!
I would have loved to stay more than only one weekend. . hopefully next summer I will stay longer :)
thank you for watching my videos!
have a great day too and all the best,
hans
Hello Hans, I'm in London, Ontario Canada and had to tell you that it is very exciting to watch your videos.that is awesome that you were invited by the archeologist to a dig congrats for that. Keep up the great work and looking forward to your next video.
hello paul,
greetings from germany and thank you very much for watching and for your kind comment! i'm happy to hear you like my videos! I hope I will be able to show you all more from finland next summer :)
Outstanding videography Hans! This is much better than Netflix!
oh thank you, that's very flattering :)
Thanks for sharing your experience. Great video as always!
thank you for watching my video, I'm glad you like it :)
all the best,
hans
Another excellent video Hans showing how Archaeologist's and Detectorist's should be helping each other, keep up the good work
GL&HH
Alex
thank you my friend, I'm happy you like it :) the only solution is dialog, mutual understanding and cooperation...there will be winners on both sides!
thank you for watching!
Ich freue mich sehr, dass Ihnen und Ihrer seriösen und professionellen Arbeitsweise eine solche gebührende Honorierung zuteil wird, indem Sie von den finnischen Archäologen zu den geplanten Grabungen eingeladen werden. Das ist wirklich eine Huldigung für Ihren tollen Einsatz!
Das Interview mit dem finnischen Kollegen ist sehr wertvoll und zeigt, wie wichtig und hilfreich für die Archäologie eine adäquate und ernsthafte Umgangsweise sein kann. Toll!
danke für die netten worte! es war eine ehre für mich diese einladung zu erhalten und selbstverständlich habe ich sie auch wahrgenommen. finnland ist nicht nur in der frage des umgangs mit sondengängern ein modernes, zukunftsgewandtes, liberales land. es gibt viele beispiele in denen finnland positiv vorangeht. ich hoffe, dass sich das verhältnis zwischen archäologie und sondengängern in deutschland weiter bessert. bisher bin ich hier jedenfalls noch keinem archäologen begegnet, der sich mit mir vor meine kamera stellen würde. echt schade!
viele grüße,
hans
TerraGermania Ja, das erscheint mir auch etwas schwierig, liegt aber wohl auch am Vorgehen mancher, die dem Image der Sondengänger nicht gerade förderlich sind und die Voraussetzungen für eine Zusammenarbeit nicht gerade verbessern. Was man teilweise auf anderen Kanälen sieht, kann ich manchmal nur als kulturloses, von sowas wie "Abenteuerlust" getriebenes Freibeuter- und Barbarentum bezeichnen. Da wird "gesondelt" und gegraben ohne Ahnung und ohne Rücksicht auf irgendwas. Dass das einem Archäologen missfällt, erscheint nachvollziehbar. Gerade deswegen gefällt mir Ihr Kanal so gut, weil Sie dem ganzen Thema die gebührende Seriösität und Würde geben und ihr einen so besonderen Mehrwert verleihen.
das kann ich auch sehr gut verstehen! manche sondengänger richten, wider besseres wissen, großen schaden an und wenige sind schlicht und ergreifend kriminell. das schadet natürlich dem ansehen der sondengänger, die von einem ehrlichen interesse an archäologie und geschichte angetrieben werden. man kann uns aber auch nicht in einen topf werfen. das wäre zu einfach und außerdem ungerecht.
Look at you! AMAZING! I knew you had skills but WOW! You did fantastic! Very organized and detailed...you adapted to the scene and what was going on around you...you showed as much as you could but not too much to interfere. Well thought out and respectful to the subject matter. Awesome camera work and beautiful shots of the surrounding nature... Editing was seemless...always telling the story. Loved the prelude... "Get up and go with Hans" My God, you are really coming into your own...becoming a true Documentarian. A Historian with respect and grace. Bravo, Hansel. Beste, Anna
You are too busy!🙄
haha. . .I'm trying hard to respond to everybody :)
hello anna,
sorry for the late reply! thank you once again for a kind and flattering comment! I was very tense when I was over in finland because I wanted to make this a special video. It's great to hear that you like my video and that you take notice of the little details that some viewers might overlook. thank you for appreciating my filming and for your kind words :)
all the best,
hans
Great to see you again, and doing such good work/travel. I'm envious.. Hope these detecting sessions lead to some interesting history x
thank you chris, I'm happy to see you commenting! thank you for watching and I hope for great results next time when I'm in finland!
all the best,
hans
Again another great vid , good work as usual
thank you my friend, I'm happy to hear you like my video :)
I enjoy your videos because you give a small piece of history with each of your discoveries. Your camera work is excellent. The camera work and quality of each video gives documentary film feeling. Good work and good hunting.
I'm happy to hear that :) thank you for watching and for your kind and flattering comment! all the best and good hunting,
hans

Great video once again, Hans. It's good to bring detectorists and archaeologists closer together.

What an amazing experience that had to Be! Thanks for taking us with you!!
it was indeed and amazing experience for me and I'm happy to be able to share it with you all! thank you for watching stan!
TerraGermania I watch Aquachigger, Chill Bill, and You. You three are the best on RUclips. I do watch Deepdigger Dan but he's a bit silly! He does do great things for charity!
thank you for saying so, I'm flattered! dan is very funny and I appreciate his efforts for charity as well!
thank you again for watching :)
Hans, what a great trip! So cool! 👍🐧
I had so much fun :) thank you for watching and for your kind comment! I'm happy to hear you like my video!
Great job, Hans. Very enjoyable video. Great to see such a healthy collaboration between the academy and hardcore ethical detectorists.
thank you my friend, I'm happy to hear you like my video! I'm very happy and grateful for this opportunity and I hope that the cooperation will continue!
thank you for watching!
Excellent video Hans loved the start , I love how they invited you , it is very interesting to me also in England , I wish our archeologist would welcome detectorists , what a great detectorist he is best wishes :)
hello jackie :)
thank you my friend, I'm glad to hear you like my detecting trip video! I hope the cooperation between archaeologists and detectorists will improve in germany, too. we are on a good way :) thank you for watching and for your kind comment!
all the best, GL&HH!

jackiesmiths Metaldetecting videos. I also live in UK. My metal detecting club was given the opportunity to help archaeologists on a roman site. I arrived and a room sized area was de-turfed. I detected the area and said can I dig the signals. The top archeologist said no just place a flag at the signal. I was told digging would upset the archeology layers. I then watched as a line of archeology and volunteer people troweled back a few inches deep the full de-turfed area. The maddening thing was they just troweled back round the flags. It was like they were not bothered about the finds. Never again will I help on an archeological dig. Brick walls and stains in the ground is all they interested in. Not sorry to say but there is still a wall between them and us. What really urks me is when a detectorist makes a fabulous find and it is declared treasure you would think the bloody archeologists had found it. Rant over.
Yes I hear ya :)
Wow, what an interesting journey. Thank you for sharing. I learn about so much about history from your videos & I certainly look forward to each one. Happy Hunting Hans!
hello pamela,
It was a great opportunity for me to fly over there and to work hand in hand with jan and his team. I'm looking forward to going back there in next summer! thank you for watching and for your kind comment my friend :)
all the best,
hans
Geteilt es wird auch gespendet allerdings on Pay day😍😍😍😍😘😘😘.Tolle Videos.
vielen dank, das ist ganz lieb von dir :)
Another great video Hans, thanks! And a few very familiar faces also :) Thank you for visiting Finland!
thank you, I'm glad you like it! I enjoyed finland a lot and I can't wait to return :)
thank you for watching and for your kind comment!
Exciting video Hans ! Thanks for it ! Seemed like a great trip and making new friends !
I'm happy to hear you like my finland video :) It's like you said: a great trip and new friends! I will be back as soon as possible. thank you for watching!
A departure (in more ways than one) from your usual viedos and hugely enjoyable. The subject matter gave you the opportunity to show your production and editing skills which are impressive, to say the least.
It's so encouraging that archaeologists like Jan are so open to using detectorists in their work. That he recognises the present conflict between us and is prepared to find a way in which we can work together shows a man with vision and it is to be hoped that other archaeologists will see the benefits and we can all move forward for the benefit of all.
Superb film, Hans, and thank you for making it. Take care and stay happy, me old mucker (another way of saying "my friend" if you hadn't hear the expression before!).
hello john,
thank you for appreciating my video and the work I put into making it. it means a lot to me!
It is so great for me to get this invitation by a modern archaeologist. as you can see dialog and even a fruitful cooperation between archaeologists and detectorists is possible! haha . . "me old mucker" that sounds funny and I've learned something new :)
thank you for watching my videos john and for your kind words about them!
all the best to you my friend and take care, too!
hans
Hans this was a great video as always Thank you so much for sharing it with us. Take care my friend.

Hi Hans. Da hat sich ja eine klasse Gelegenheit für Dich ergeben. Glückwunsch. :) .... Achja klasse Videoarbeit. Dir weiterhin alles Gute.
hallo chris,
aber echt..bin sehr glücklich darüber! danke fürs anschauen und für deine netten worte! alles gute auch dir,
hans
My grandparents left Hango in 1901-02 to come to America. The soil there is much like that of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan where many Finns reside today.
Beste Stelle: Hans, komm mal her!☺
Lasse seems to be a very friendly person.
I am happy to see, that there are some archeologists, which have interest in ww2. Because we are able to save history after short time when it happened. And we have to do this.
I hope to see you in Finland next summer. Very beutiful country!
haha. . .lasse indeed a very friendly and cool person! I enjoyed detecting together with him!
for me it was a nice change, too and I hope I will be able to join the summer excavation in 2018!
thank you for watching and for your kind comment my friend!
so good detection !!! so good video.. greetings!
thank you my friend! greetings back :)
Hello Hans, Thank you my friend for your great video, very interesting talk from the archaeologist about WW2, all the very best, Regards Richard GL&HH
hello richard,
thank you for watching and for your kind comment my friend :) It was a great opportunity for me and it was a great change for me to detect for ww2 relics. I'm looking forward to returning to finland next summer.
all the best, GL&HH!
hans

So fascinating!!! Thanks so much Hans!
Hello Hans! I'm in Netherland we'll watch the video this evening !!! Thank's for sharing !!!👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻
Hi Domus are you the lady I saw at Detectavil 2017 :)
Hello jackiesmiths Metaldetecting videos ! Yes i was at Detectival 2017!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Very interesting reportage Hans! Beautyful landscapes!!! Thank you for sharing !!!👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻
I'm happy to hear that my friend :) thank you for watching francoise!
Great video Hans. Very informative.
thank you for watching my friend :)
Finland, the country I knew well as a kid though that was in the 1960s.Plenty of history there, I noticed something I learned at school about the boulders scattered all over that part of Finland are called erratics left by the retreating ice sheets at the end of the ice age. There are also many terminal moraines all over the Finnish landscape bulldozed by the colossal ice sheets that gradually retreated north. That's why there's no mountains there, only undulating hills with the stony ones bearing scrape marks left by boulders in the ice sheets as they moved forward during the advancing stage of the ice age. That would be the most ancient relics Finland can offer to you which also make a comfy seat to rest and admire the surrounding landscape. I do miss the berry picking seasons there but not the freezing winters. Thanks for sharing your trip and all the cool finds. Cheers from sunny Australia where I get to choose any climate at any time of year.
finnland is a fantastic county..so beautiful and as you said full of history. I'm looking forward to returning there next year. they also have a great iron age and medieval history that is interesting, too!
thank you for watching and for your kind comment my friend :)
all the best and greetings from germany,
hans
Great video Hans, I've been expecting you to be invited on something like this and hope it happens more often now, you're just the right man.
thank you my friend I'm glad you like my video! I hope it won't be the last time, too! it makes a great change to the usual detecting and it is very exciting!
all the best,
hans
something new!loved it!
I'm happy to hear that, thank you :)
Fantastic, Hans Greetings from Canada.

Hello Hans! You outdid your self with this video, it was superb my friend. Thank you for what you do for history's sake!!!👍👍
thank you my friend, that's kind of you to say so :) thank you for watching and for your kind words!
Mate,it was like watching a documentary about WWII archeology,very cool indeed!
Must feel good to be able pursue an hobby and do things like that with it.Good on you mate👍.Noticed the drumm pad at home,how are you paradiddles?Bet you like dream theatre and rush😀
All the best Hans
I'm happy to hear that my friend. I stressed myself quite a bit to make this a good video and it's great that you appreciate my efforts! haha. . my paradiddles are a bit rusted as I doesn't find the time to practise. I'm a big judas priest fan...I like heavy metal in music as well :D
all the best to you , too!
hans
TerraGermania I play drums,guitar and used to play bass in a hardcore band on my late teens.I like a lot of music but lately I’m into mastodon,baroness,lamb of god,etc.Good to know a metal detectorist that likes metal😀
cool. . so many instruments! metal detecting and heavy metal goes together very well :D
This is a great video Hans it's nice that you were invited over to help. There's so much history in that area it's amazing after all these years. Sending good vibes from Canada :)
thank you my friend, I'm happy to hear that :) I'm so happy about this invitation and I can't wait to return there! it's an untouched area and almost everything is just the way the germans left it behind.
all the best and good vibes back from germany,
hans
What an amazing video you’ve put together there Hans! Such a privilege to be asked over there to help in their work, I would give anything to do that, anything WW2 era fascinated me, there is so much variation in what you can find! Look forward to more from Finland in the future! Take care, Marc.
I hope to find the time to join them on their summer excavation. I will of course film it if I make it over to finand again.
thank you for watching my friend!
Like the intro,(anything gear-related is Good!:).
Coulda swore I saw a pad/pair of sticks there too,(I played for years before taking up MD,(still have all my drum gear/cymbals).
Very interesting new video here, definitely not getting this anywhere else...Great Job as always!
I'm glad to hear that my friend :) thank you!
yes it is a drum pad...my drum kit is in the cellar but I can't play it as my neighbours freak out every time I hit a single note :D
Hallo Hans. Du machst mir Sachen 😉 Einfach nur gransios und vorbildlich. So eine Möglichkeit muss man wahrnehmen. Das hast du dir ordentlich verdient. Ich hab dein Video sowas von genossen. Einfach super in Szene gesetzt. Hut ab, Hans. Gut Fund, bleibe gesund und LG
haha. .tja, ich war auch überrascht eine einladung von einem archäologen zu bekommen. habe mich sehr auf diese reise gefreut...ich war aber auch dementsprechend angespannt, da ich es nicht verbocken wollte :D
danke fürs anschauen und für deinen lieben kommentar!
alles gute auch dir und GF,
hans
Wow Hans...you never know who is watching your videos. It appears the archaeologist enjoyed your videos so much (who doesn't!), that they invite you there for your help and dedication in the hobby. So cool!! Couldn't of happened to a betty guy :)
Really enjoyed this one. So informative. Lot's of info contained here...and on that site. I really hope you are able to make it back there next summer to help with the excavating. That would be so interesting. You will have to buy more batteries and SD cards for your camera's :)
Thanks you for sharing this special moment with us. Very much appreciated! As usual, I can not wait to see your next video. Always a pleasure to watch and learn from you.
Take care my friend, all the best to you.

I't was great for me to get this opportunity and this kind of recognition by a scientist. here in germany my videos are quite contested among archaeologists. definitely not everybody likes them!
I will try to make it back to finland next summer. I would love to cover the excavation with a video or two :)
thank you for watching my videos and for your kind words about them my good friend! I appreciate your support!
take care too and all the best,
hans
