The MOST GOLD We've Ever Uncovered Highbanking

Today, we move boulders, dig deep, and recover the most gold we've ever found with a high banker. Oh my god. I hope you enjoy. So good. Hi, today is gonna be a good day. We are probably gonna uncover the most gold you've ever seen in your entire life. Over the years, I've high banked here probably a dozen times, and every single time, we were able to leave with a pile of gold. So if it all goes to plan, I expect we're gonna leave with about a million dollars worth of gold. So I know the lighting in this area is pretty not ideal. There's a lot of shade and sun, which makes it hard to film. But anyways, all the times I've high banked here was in this straight stretch. And the last time I high banked here, I dug into this hole, and I actually just got to bedrock. We found a lot of gold here in the last video, but I never actually worked the bedrock all that well. So hopefully today, we'll do that, and then we'll continue here and find that one million dollars worth of gold. So the last time I was here, I dumped our gold dirt right on the ground, which is not ideal. Luckily, Sile knows me too well and brought a tarp so we don't lose any gold. Now, once the water pump is all set up, it's time to start digging. So what I'm thinking is, since you didn't finish this area last time on your last video, we could clean the bedrock here and see what you missed for our first run. Then we can start moving bulk material and do the next section. But I thought that'd be cool. To see what I missed. Why not? Sure, let's do it. So you heard the man. Because I never got to clean all the material off the bedrock the last time I was here, why don't we do that now and quickly run it before burying it with new material? All right, we have four buckets. Well, five, including that one on top of the, from on top, Okay, we have four buckets here and then a pile of dirt over there from the fifth bucket. I think this is good enough to run to see what exactly I missed. And then after that, we'll just continue here and actually do a big run today. This one will be quick. It's just for peace of mind, really. So did I miss anything? Kyle, you do the honors. So I don't want to find gold in here because it means I missed the gold. But if they find gold, they keep it. So they probably want to find gold. Yeah, right there. Right there. Dang it. How much gold did I miss? Actually, I won't say I missed it. I'll just say I didn't dig it up. All right, let's see. Reveal. I got a few pieces in there. Oh, cool. Very nice. Not bad. So that was just on the bedrock. Mind you, it's not all cleaned up on the bedrock either. There's so much more to go and do, but we just want to hurry up and run some material. So we'll get this cleaned up and give you a closer look. So here's the gold that was on that bedrock that I didn't dig up last time. Not bad. There's still actually a lot more material we could dig up, but it's going to take too long to do that. So what we're going to do is start digging through all this new material and run more stuff to find more gold. So our bedrock test is complete. Up next is officially round number one. It helps a lot when you have help. It goes by way quicker than it would be if I was here by myself. Like four times quicker. Five times quicker. Because there's nine of us here. I honestly didn't know I would have this long-term of a relationship with the SuperDuper Special Purple High Banker. We threw this thing through a bunch of tests. We dropped it from a tree, threw it off a cliff, and hit it with a car. And this thing is still holding up nicely. And we drug it behind the car too. Yeah, we did. I thought you said we drugged it. Yeah, we gave it like that. We don't talk about that. Yeah, we don't talk about that. So my minions are hard at work. I think we're going to do good today because how much dirt we'll be able to wash. Also, with the amount of combined energy we'll have, we can get further into the bedrock where nicer gold could be hiding. Look at that. So the pile is starting to look like a pile now. We're thinking maybe four to eight more buckets. And then we'll do our first run. I want to do like three runs, but I'm not the one working. We're going to have to ask them. Most likely just going to be two, which is going to be probably about 200 buckets. Come on, Kyle. 10 more buckets. I feel like I'm a union worker right now. You are. One guy with a shovel, three supervisors. Quickly, one piece of advice. Don't dig in the sun. Devon, one piece of advice. Don't drink the night before going. Lauren, one piece of advice. Don't eat yellow snow. Yellow, oh. Don't eat yellow snow. Paul, piece of advice. Always bring your friends to do the work for you. So officially, round numero uno. We have about 20 or 30 buckets. We're going to run through the high banker and find many grams of gold. Based on what we found on the first run and all the videos I've done previously, for sure we're going to find more than one gram, but how many more grams? In case you haven't noticed, I've barely been doing any work. And that's because while filming my next sniping video, I hurt my shoulder pretty bad and it set me back a bit. So now I'm just on camera duty while I heal. I don't mind being on camera duty today. It's actually quite nice to relax and not have to dig. I was just pretty disappointed when I was filming that next sniping video and I had to stop because of the pain. So we'll get her done. Just won't be as soon as I'd like. I was gone for two minutes and look at the dent that they've done already. This is awesome. So just as we were getting ahead, our water pump quit. Uh-oh. Should not be out of gas already. Luckily it was just low of fuel. So we thought. All right. So the engine has stopped about three times now. Kyle's trying to give it surgery to see if he can fix it. We have a lot more material to run still. So that's not good. I blame all of that on Lauren. 100%, look at her. Just look at her. To blame. It was her fault. All right. So over there is where we're high banking right now. And right over here is where I was sniping in my next sniping video that you'll see after this video, where I found a really nice piece of gold. I've been here millions of times, millions of times. And a nice piece of gold was found out of there, but I can't show you yet. You're gonna have to wait till the next video. Hopefully my shoulder will be healed by then, but we'll see. Hopefully the machine over there will stay on for at least this run. Otherwise we're gonna have to pan all this. Lauren, the water keeps stopping. What'd you do? So now it's just a matter of getting through all the dirt before the water pump shuts off again. And as long as I don't get too distracted, we should complete round number one. You know what I'm trying to say. I'm eating cereal. Okay, last scoop of round number one. Oh, come on. There we are. Yay. Okay, maybe, yeah. So now what we do is we just let this run for a few minutes, get all the most of the light stuff off, and then we'll reveal 10 million ounces. Great success. All right, this is my favorite part. When we find out we didn't find anything. Mr. Optimistic over here. Yeah. Any nuggets up top? I see gold right now. Oh yeah. Holy crap. Oh, that's cool. There's a pile. Dropped my phone. And then we're down here. Why is it all just right there? It's the top roof hole. What do you expect? There's another one. All right, so yeah, well, there is gold. That is a good sign. There's gold around. So we have bigger chunks up top. There's probably gonna be a lot more finer stuff down in here, we hope. Anything underneath? Oh yeah, there's gold there. Underneath? Oh, under, under? Yeah, under, under. I don't know, I'm just thinking about like that first bit. That's a good, yeah. Like this? That's an exciting, that's good to see. That's it, really nice. I like that press. Could you imagine if I just quickly flipped this whole thing down on the dirt? I can't imagine that. I would make you clean it up with your toes. With your teeth, with your butt cheeks. Don't be shy. Christmas is ruined. I really like this claim, this whole area. Just so beautiful. All because of me. What material is that? This is the catch pan I put just at the bottom of the discharge of the High Banker as like a last chance. And the reason I do that with this one is because you have the V1, like the Gen 1 matting. Blah, blah, blah. So basically if there's gold in this one, it means that his High Banker sucks. I don't see any gold. I don't see a speck. Oh good, all right. High five. Your High Banker is good. The reveal here. What gold was found in round numero uno? I don't see anything. Did you dump it out? Oh, I thought there was like nothing. I was like, what happened? That's glorious. That's not bad. I'm serious. I thought there was nothing in it. I'm like, did you actually pour it out? Whoa. Yeah, high banking is way better than panning, hey. Yeah. Jesus, it sure is. Nice job team. Yeah. Thank God for all four of us helping. Paul, you did such good work today. Thank you. So this is what we got for round number, well this is what everyone else got for round number one. There's still some fine gold in the black sand down here, but this is the majority of it. All pretty chunky. Normally we find a lot more fine gold, but that's okay. I like chunky gold more. I love how good gold looks in a black sand. In the sun. Yeah, gold looks amazing in a pan with black sand. There we go. In the sun. All right, so round number one was a success. Up next is round number two. All right, so since round number one is done, what are we thinking? Are we going deeper? We're going in. We're going to go this way. I agree with Kyle that most of the load came from this rooted, packed up stuff. Where Lauren's working right here? If we can get this big slab out of the way and carry on underneath this tree and against that flat, I think the next one would even be better. Yeah, I think I want to do more buckets. I want to do like maybe 30, but I think that was like not even 30 buckets. If we do 30 or 40, whoo-hoo. I think that was closer to 20. 40 buckets is a whole yard. Yeah, it's easy for me. It is, yeah. You guys can do 45 buckets and I'll just film. Yeah, you said we a few, several times there, but it's actually us, not you. It's like a really good deal. Thank you. High five. Before I could do any more work in the heat, I had to dip my toes in the water. I didn't want to get wet. Do you want us to get to that pile? No, right there, right there, right in front of you. I remember my first time using a shovel. Now that the sun is directly over their heads, I make them push for more buckets this run. Oh, why is it so heavy? It's full of gold. Gosh. My toe. Oh, dude, it'd be John. What toe? So the last couple of years, we started down there, worked all the way up. I want to go this way. They're going to go this way. This is where they think most of the gold is coming from. So they're doing the work. They'll do the digging. So Sil and Devin are digging and working hard. And Lauren over here is just enjoying the sun. Advertisement time. So if you guys spend as much time as I do around bedrock, you have to get these fiberglass brushes. Sil makes these. They're called the gold brush, and they work really, really well. Super durable, super flexible piece of equipment that works well in the bedrock. Even comes with these little pens. This is probably my favorite tool because it can get anywhere. So stop wasting your time. Get one of these and gold brush yourself. All right, the day is getting on. We are almost to where we were on the last run, but it's actually a lot cooler than it was too, which means we will get more buckets done. Devin here says he's just, look at that. Hey, he's just found this deep zone in his channel. So my original suggestion was to go this way or that way, but Sil and Devin both found this. There's a bedrock right here and right there. So this is a little channel. Who knows how far it goes, but they believe this is where the good gold's coming from. And look at that. That is an excellent sign, especially if that bedrock goes back up. This will be a little catch zone where 1 million ounces of gold will be. A billion. We have really good lighting now to show you guys what we've done. So this is kind of where we started. You see all that bedrock. The water will flow this way and then just drop. That's a wall of bedrock right there. And it just drops. I wonder how deep it goes. But again, if it goes down and then comes back up, this is a deep zone. So that is always a good sign. We don't have a plunger to get any wet material out, but we'll still do what we can. Now, something I must say is that just because you find a really good zone where you think gold is, doesn't mean there's going to be gold there. There are more good looking crevices than there is gold. You just got to keep that in mind. So you're never discouraged when you don't find gold in a nice looking spot. That looks really good. Oh, look how wet and clumpy that is. Heavy. Uh-huh. It'd be a shame if my foot went in it and got really dirty. Ew, yuck. So we're basically done. Lauren's assistant wants to get a couple more buckets in. So that's good. We're just sitting here watching her. Uh-oh. So with the day coming to an end, we all do our part to get through what's going to be a really rich pile of dirt. They're getting through this material a lot faster than I thought they would. It's a good sign. It just means I have to rush around quicker to try to get the shots I need. Okay, so we had to stop for a sec because we see an excellent line of gold right there. And not even down in here yet. You kind of give that a wiggle. Oh. Now it went in there. And I ruined it, but you saw that. That's good. The good sign is gold here. So we're almost done pile numero dos. I think this is actually going to be the best one today so far because not only was there a bigger pile, but we just saw a line of gold up top right there. We didn't see that in the first run. Already having another one there. Man, look at it. Yeah, there's like six pieces in there. Wow, already. That whole. Yeah, so most of that gold is probably coming from right in here. Almost to the last one. All right. Yay. So just like last time, we're going to let it run for a couple of minutes here and then we'll have a reveal. This is going to be good. It has to be good. This is the first time we all decided to rinse the tarp off because how much gold we were still seeing. There's actually a lot of material still on it. The gold got through the tarp. Yeah. Okay, hit it. Well, what do we have here? Nothing. Oh, we made it all muddy. Yeah, it's all mucky now. It's hard to see. No. I do see gold there though. I see one right there. See that piece? Oh, look how big those are. Oh, you got some chunkies. Yeah. Panning time. There's bigger pieces in this run actually. Okay, no 10 ouncers. That's all right. But this whole top riffle has gold. What about this bit though? Definitely. Got down into that wall now. You have gold in that one. What do you... Are you filming? Yeah. What are you going to say? I was just going to ask, what do you do when one of us swears on camera? I either just beep it out or I make them never come back again. Okay, so like beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep. Yeah. There you go. Oh, there's some candy in there. Oh yeah. I'm just hoping this runs better than the last one. It has to be. I don't see gold. Oh my God. There's a foot in it. I don't see gold in the top line of that screen that often. Like... Yeah, that was the first for me. I've seen one piece up there before, but like what, 10? That was pretty sick. So once this is all done, we're actually going to do one more run of a bucket that Lauren accumulated from the bottom of that hole. So in total, we'll do four runs, but this one's just one bucket. Hopefully there'll be like, how much gold do you think will be in there? Like maybe four ounces or something? Yeah. Maybe? Can you imagine if I didn't injure myself, I'll just make it up so that everybody else is right there swimming? Oh my God. So gold's already starting to show up to the black sand. Yeah, there's a pile adding up to the right there. See that? The roar of the pine. There's a red impact! All right, you guys ready? Nothing. Got a lot more black sand. Holy. Wow, oh my God. Wow. I think that's better than the first run. It is. I would say so for sure. Look at that, see way more fine gold too. And there's a bunch under here still. Yeah, let's reveal that still. Wow. Beautiful. Nice run. Thank you. All because of me. What? Okay, I'm gonna clean this all up and we'll show you close up. Yeah. Again, it looks so good with the black sand in there. I'd be ashamed if someone knocked it in the water. No, I'm just kidding. Oh. Piss everyone off. So here's the gold from round numero dos. Way better than the first one, I think. A lot of pieces. You got chunky pieces in there. You got fine gold all through that black sand. Even some more pieces of lead. I don't know where the lead's coming from, but this makes me happy. Now, before we dump the rest of the gold that we found earlier into this pan, we gotta do one more run of Lauren's bucket. So just after we thought we were done, Lauren created the bonus round. Looks like Lauren might have to pan that bucket. The bonus round is just what was left on the very bottom of the hole Devin found. Lauren spent a bunch of time filling up a bucket with that material, so we're gonna run it for good measure. Okay, so what was in that bucket of Lauren's bucket material? All right, there's a few specks in there. Pixie dust. So just dumped out the snuffer. This is all the gold we got today. Oh my God. So good. That looks amazing. Look at that shine. Yeah. So we cleaned it up. There's the gold. It's all floaty. For those of you who don't know, gold will float, small gold will float if you get your finger oils in it, just like this. Stop that. Yeah, this whole bench is loaded. I wanna know what's actually further down this way, because even though we're finding a lot of gold here, this could be the bad zone. There actually could be a better zone under all this. You just never know until you dig it. So luckily I have a few people that will help dig it while I watch them. I just gotta make sure I stay injured. So they're gonna stack up the gold. We're gonna pack up, go all the way back to my place. We're gonna dry it and then weigh it and see who wins it all. No, they can decide who keeps the gold. They did the work. I just watched them do the work and filmed the video. So we made the nine million mile journey back home into the blue room. Now the room's not blue yet, but anyway. Here is the gold. A lot of pieces in here. If you were to go out for a day and just do some gold panning, you might find a few flakes in there, but if you have a hive anchor, you can get through a lot more material and end up with more gold. Unfortunately, we didn't find any big nuggets this trip. I know they're around. I found several there before, but without those no nugget days, you can't enjoy those nugget days. My favorite piece is this little guy. Now it's quite small, but quite chunky and coarse looking, which I like. Now the only thing left to do is weigh it. I need a better system. I blame Lauren. Okay, your guesses please. 10 ounces. 3.95 grams. So in USD, that's somewhere over $500 and in Canadian, somewhere over $700. Not bad. Now, before you go, Kyle didn't want the gold, so we are gonna hand deliver it to Lauren and Devin.
