What's up guys, Jake here.
Today we're back in the river scuba diving
to see what we can find.
If you're new to the channel,
we find all types of things in the river,
but let's find out what's down there today.
So the first thing I found is a beer bottle.
Let's go ahead and put that in my bag
and we'll throw that away later.
And right around the corner,
we got lucky and found our very first fishing lure.
This place is a great spot to fish.
So how many fishing lures do you think I'm gonna find today?
Take a guess in the comments below.
My personal guess is gonna be over 40 fishing lures.
So let me know in the comments and we'll see who's right.
If you notice, I don't have any fins on my feet.
And when I'm diving in the river,
I actually rarely use them.
I love walking around at the bottom of the river
because it makes me feel like an astronaut
and it is just so much fun.
It also helps me collect all the stuff that I find
because I can wedge my feet in a rock
and grab the treasure and put it in the jar or the bag.
But today it's low flow,
but they will be turning on that dam later in a day.
So we have to be careful.
So I'm using two ways to collect
and store the items I find underwater.
We've got a jar that I made specifically for fishing lures
so they don't poke me when I'm diving.
I can't tell you guys how many times
I've been hooked by a fishing hook.
So these jars are amazing.
And then we have this bag for pretty much anything else.
Hopefully today we'll be throwing
a bunch of great stuff in there,
like phones and rings and guns,
but you never know what you're gonna find
while you're diving and that's why it's so much fun.
So let's keep looking and see what else we can find.
I'm also using two ways to cut fishing line
or rope that we may come across.
I have a dive knife on my forearm
and a fishing line ring cutter on my right hand,
on my middle finger.
When diving, it's always nice to make sure
you have at least one cutting tool, but two is great.
This water is coming down from Atlanta,
so you're gonna find all types of trash.
No matter if I clean it up 100% today,
there will be trash in it tomorrow.
It's just endless.
But it's always nice to get all this trash
every day out of the water
because you don't want any animals getting caught in it
or trying to eat it.
It's just very sad.
I can't tell you how many dead fish
or dead turtles I've seen and you don't wanna see that.
All this is pretty much preventable
and I try my best every day to pick up all the trash I see
so no animals or people can get hurt
while they're swimming around.
If you're enjoying this diving video,
I would really appreciate if you guys
left a like on this video.
Help me make this video go viral
so I can make more diving videos to pick up more trash
and return things back to the owners.
But I'm having so much fun diving today.
We've already found so much,
but let's see what else we can find.
This looks like a little piece to a gun.
I'm not too sure.
It looks real, but that's still a great find
and I'm very excited about it.
And I'm also fanning right here
just to make sure that the weapon
is actually not buried underneath the ground.
Don't wanna leave it, you know, you wanna find everything.
So this is a great method to use, but it's not here.
So let's keep swimming around
and hopefully find something better.
So this is a medium flathead catfish.
It is just hanging out so cool.
The water's actually pretty clear today
and I didn't wanna bother it too much.
And I just found another rattle trap.
It's hooked up on this rope.
So I'm gonna use the dive knife on my forearm.
It's giving me a little trouble.
I need to sharpen it, but we're gonna get this thing.
I always collect the hard bait fishing lures
because you could definitely reuse all these.
But like I said, anything I find,
I try to throw it away at the very least.
So I'm gonna go ahead and put that fishing lure in the jar.
Now I'm gonna grab all this rope
because I don't wanna leave it.
You know, a fish, a bird, or something can get tangled
and that is not good.
So we're gonna try our best to throw all this away.
I like to call my black bag the Santa bag
because it looks like I could put everything in there
and it never gets full.
And I make it look like this on purpose, y'all,
but I do have another bag on the surface
that I put all the trash and everything else that I find.
So it may look a bit empty time to time,
but I promise you guys, I'm collecting everything I find.
What in the heck was that?
Scuba diving in the river is so dangerous
because there's fishing line literally everywhere.
And it's not your typical fishing line.
That right there was braided fishing line.
If that got wrapped around you
and you didn't have a knife or a ring cutter,
you're definitely gonna struggle
and it can be very dangerous.
So it's always important to have a dive knife,
some scissors, or maybe a ring cutter like me.
When you're diving, make sure to always bring something
that you can cut fishing line or rope with
just in case you get entangled.
It's very crucial having a source of protection like that.
Plus there's some crazy animals down here.
You never know, you might have to defend yourself.
I just found this bag
and it feels like there's something inside.
You don't wanna leave anything unopened
while you're at the river,
especially if you're a treasure hunter.
So, you know, you wanna look for the worst of the worst
or the best of the best.
And in this case, I think we just found a bag of socks.
I'll be sure to give this one to Brandon maybe.
Let me know if I should mail these to him
all the way to Florida.
That would honestly be so funny.
I'm just double checking here, you know,
making sure there's nothing else,
but sure enough, it's just some nasty old socks.
So this is definitely a weird find.
I thought it looked like a rope,
maybe to a noose or something.
It just looks really weird.
I wasn't too sure about it.
It definitely kind of freaks me out,
but let me know what you think this is
in the comment section.
And look at this, a pair of shorts.
I wonder the person who lost these shorts,
if they walked out butt naked.
Could you imagine losing your shorts?
Oh my gosh, walking out of there butt naked would suck.
I personally think I'd just have to own it
and try to get to the house as fast as possible
before anyone takes photos.
And also, you know, the water's getting pretty chilly.
So it's not gonna be the best look.
So we're checking on this turtle right here.
It has a chip on the top of the shell.
I wasn't gonna bother it,
but I was worried about it.
So I was like kind of moving it,
making sure it's, you know, it's healthy.
I'm gonna touch its back.
So it kind of swims away here.
I was like, oh, what's going on with this thing?
And then sure enough, it just kicks off.
And I'm like, okay, it's good.
You know, it's definitely been healing.
And right here, look, he hits his head.
Don't.
You know, you gotta make sure these animals are safe.
If it wasn't, I would have took it out of the water
and maybe helped it out.
I found some goggles there.
It looks like someone's been trying to find some treasure.
Looks like we found another piece to a phone, an old phone.
I think Susan's calling me right now.
I'm gonna hang up on it.
Put that in the bag.
Can't talk to her right now.
I've been making this Susan joke for the longest time.
And if you don't know what I'm talking about,
every time I find a phone on the water,
I act like Susan from YouTube actually gives me a call.
I don't know if she actually knows about this joke,
but one day I hope she finds out.
So we found some great things so far,
a bunch of lures and some other knickknacks,
but I'm about to find the best thing of the day so far.
Check it out.
Boom, look at that, an Apple Watch.
That one's been down there for a while.
There's actually a snail on it.
I'm gonna flick it off.
You know, you don't wanna bring it up and kill it.
I'm gonna put it back right down there.
I'm gonna hold onto that Apple Watch
and every other Apple Watch I find
just in case we find the owner
so we can give these back to those people for free.
I'm gonna put my Apple Watch in the fishing jar.
We don't wanna lose that one.
So let's keep looking around this area.
It's a cliff jumping spot,
so there's often a lot of good things to find.
It's not every day that you find a GoPro on the water
and this one looks like it's been down there
for a long time.
Look at all that slime on it.
Another snail was on there as well.
But I actually know who this belongs to
and we're gonna give them a call, surprise them,
and give it back to that person completely for free.
Finding things on the water is so much fun,
but giving back these valuables to the owners for free
is my passion.
I just love their reactions and it makes my day
because when you lose something in the river,
you think it's gone forever.
And look at that, another Apple Watch.
So that makes two for the day so far.
This one looks a little bit newer,
but if you tell right there in the middle,
there's some rust and that's a Series 4 I was pointing out.
Trying to turn it on and see if there's any battery.
But let's go ahead and put that in the jar,
make sure it's safe along with my other GoPro
and Apple Watch.
It looks crazy.
Money.
And look at that, found a diamond earring
right on the ground.
This is an amazing spot, usually produces so much stuff.
These sunglasses are pretty wild, some Oakleys.
We got another snail, I'm gonna flick that off
so I don't kill it.
Those are actually pretty cool.
I'm gonna wear those later.
If you see me wearing these in public,
just know I found them in the river.
This jar is getting kind of full,
but I'm gonna continue filling it up.
We got a bunch of flutes and paddle tail swim baits here.
Most of these lures aren't gonna be reusable,
but we're gonna take them out of the water
so a fish doesn't bite them thinking it's food.
Also found this giant dive knife.
I'm pretty sure this is a potential murder weapon.
I need to make some t-shirts
that say potential murder weapons.
Let me know if you would buy a t-shirt
that says potential murder weapon
and something funny on it from one of my dives.
I think it would be a blast.
I would love to see that happen.
I went back out later in the day
and the water got murky on me, but check it out.
I found a pistol and it's actually underneath this rock.
It's been down there for a very long time.
I'm kind of freaking out.
A pistol when you're diving is honestly the Holy Grail.
It's always so much fun finding them
because you never know the story behind it.
It could be tied to something really bad
and you can help solve some kind of crime,
maybe bring closure to a family member.
This one, however, looks to be like a pellet gun
and I've found one of these before and it's so disappointing
but nevertheless, we did find a gun underwater
and I think that's really cool.
Just not exactly what I'm looking for.
I don't think we're gonna need to call the police
on this one.
Some little kid probably shot a kid's eye or something.
He's like, I'm throwing it in the water.
Can't get in trouble.
Gotta get rid of my DNA.
I have another video going up Sunday.
Make sure to check it out.
It's gonna be a good one.
It's gonna be just like this.
So if you're enjoying this video so far,
make sure to keep a lookout for that one.
I'm so excited because it is a banger.
We found some amazing things underwater that day.
So don't miss it.
It's gonna be uploaded this Sunday in the morning.
We just got done diving.
We're back at the house and my good friend, Ian,
who's a raft guide at the river,
gave me information of the person who lost a GoPro.
Now that person has no clue that I found it
nor that I'm gonna give it back to him
but today we're gonna give him a call,
surprise him and hopefully we have an amazing reaction.
Hello?
Hey, is this Tyler?
Yeah, who's this?
Hey man, this is Jake.
I'm a scuba diver in the Chattahoochee River.
I was calling.
Hey bud, I was calling to see
if you lost a GoPro by any chance.
I did lose a GoPro.
Oh yeah?
Was it a Hero 8?
It was a Hero 8.
Well, I found your GoPro, bud
and I'd love to give it back to you.
Dude, that's awesome.
Were you my tour guide?
No, I wasn't.
My buddy, Ian, was actually your tour guide.
He gave me your information
and then I told him that I'd give you a call if I found it
and we got lucky and found it the other day
and it looked like it's been down there for a while.
How long has it been down underwater for?
A few weeks.
It was a week before Labor Day.
Wow, that's crazy.
I think it still works too,
but don't get mad at me if it doesn't.
Do you live in Columbus, Georgia?
No, I live in Panama City.
Well, if you give me your address,
I'll mail it out to you and I'll do all this for free.
So just on me.
Dude, no, I'll pay for it all.
No, no, no, I got you.
I got you.
This is what I do, man.
This is my passion.
When you get a chance, send me your address
and then I'll put it in a box and mail it out to you.
I'll also put insurance on it.
So if the mailing company loses it,
you'll be able to claim that money.
That was so cool.
So if you enjoyed the video, drop a thumbs up,

I would really appreciate your support.
But remember, I will be uploading a video

It's gonna be just like this one
and I'd love for you guys to watch it.
But until then, I'll see you guys on the next adventure.
