1
00:00:16,310 --> 00:00:19,965
Evolution is as vital to miners
as it is to every species.
2
00:00:21,655 --> 00:00:24,862
Over a century ago,
the first form of gold seekers
3
00:00:24,862 --> 00:00:28,827
brought their
primitive methods
to the Nome shores.
4
00:00:28,827 --> 00:00:32,689
And while today's fleet
has advanced far beyond
their forefathers,
5
00:00:32,689 --> 00:00:35,689
if they don't continue
to evolve,
6
00:00:35,689 --> 00:00:38,034
they'll be left
out in the cold.
7
00:00:42,793 --> 00:00:45,379
And on the icy Bering Sea...
8
00:00:52,724 --> 00:00:54,482
There's a storm coming up,
9
00:00:54,482 --> 00:00:57,000
but, you know,
I got to make money
before that,
10
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:58,689
you know,
because it's pretty much
11
00:00:58,689 --> 00:01:00,413
gonna be
for a while, you know.
12
00:01:00,413 --> 00:01:02,344
Ain't no [bleep] around today.
13
00:01:02,344 --> 00:01:04,137
Into the face of adversity,
14
00:01:04,137 --> 00:01:09,448
a young gun's looking
for an edge to rise to
the top of the gold chain.
15
00:01:17,689 --> 00:01:19,379
This winter
is all about letting
16
00:01:19,379 --> 00:01:22,896
the mining community know
that there's a new force
in town.
17
00:01:22,896 --> 00:01:25,206
I've always got to be
thinking outside the box.
18
00:01:25,206 --> 00:01:28,103
I need to use every edge
that I can because I'm aiming
19
00:01:28,103 --> 00:01:31,517
for a hundred-ounce season,
and that's a Mr. Gold number.
20
00:01:31,517 --> 00:01:35,586
I'm gonna prove
that I'm as good as Mr. Gold
or anyone in this fleet,
21
00:01:35,586 --> 00:01:37,551
and I want no storm
to slow me down.
22
00:01:38,551 --> 00:01:39,896
Push it in there.
23
00:01:51,482 --> 00:01:53,379
So I got a two-pronged
plan to help me
24
00:01:53,379 --> 00:01:56,275
stay ahead of the game
before the storm hits.
25
00:01:56,275 --> 00:01:58,896
First, I'm gonna send
Yukon John down
26
00:01:58,896 --> 00:02:00,896
and finish up
the rest of this hole.
27
00:02:00,896 --> 00:02:03,413
The guy is a killer.
Total Nome OG.
28
00:02:03,413 --> 00:02:05,862
I just want to make sure
what happened last summer
29
00:02:05,862 --> 00:02:07,379
didn't mess up
his confidence.
30
00:02:13,724 --> 00:02:16,724
A strong diver
will fix that in a hurry.
31
00:02:17,689 --> 00:02:19,172
Hey, Freddie.
32
00:02:20,172 --> 00:02:22,517
Game time.
33
00:02:22,517 --> 00:02:25,482
And I'm also gonna break out
some new technology.
34
00:02:25,482 --> 00:02:27,620
I have this cool
underwater drone
35
00:02:27,620 --> 00:02:29,862
that will help me
scope out the sea floor.
36
00:02:29,862 --> 00:02:33,551
I want to find some new
ground to crush after
the storm passes.
37
00:02:33,551 --> 00:02:36,655
A lot of old-time miners
shy away from the
new technology,
38
00:02:36,655 --> 00:02:38,862
but I think
this is the key to progress.
39
00:02:42,206 --> 00:02:45,206
I'm gonna send you the drone
down there.
40
00:02:45,206 --> 00:02:47,275
Let us know what you
think from there.
41
00:02:50,344 --> 00:02:52,379
Mic check.
Mic check.
42
00:02:52,379 --> 00:02:55,620
Loud and clear.
43
00:03:07,586 --> 00:03:11,448
Diver down, baby.
John is my gold dog.
44
00:03:11,448 --> 00:03:15,241
I sent him down there
and he gets it like a dog
45
00:03:15,241 --> 00:03:16,793
looking for his bone.
46
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:35,586
We'll go idle up.
47
00:03:49,586 --> 00:03:51,517
Hey, John. How's it going?
48
00:03:51,517 --> 00:03:53,517
Oh,
it's going pretty good.
49
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,275
Right on.
Right on. Okay. Got it.
50
00:04:17,586 --> 00:04:19,206
Whoo!
51
00:04:19,206 --> 00:04:22,517
- My diver's happy...
- Everything's
running smooth.
52
00:04:22,517 --> 00:04:25,724
...we'll get it.
No matter how hard
it is, we'll get it.
53
00:04:27,896 --> 00:04:31,068
As the youngest
miner in the fleet
forges a new path...
54
00:04:36,862 --> 00:04:40,689
Nobody throw,
uh, cigarette butts
in the tailings,
55
00:04:41,965 --> 00:04:44,655
'cause they film it
and make us look
like white trash.
56
00:04:47,137 --> 00:04:48,206
Good morning!
57
00:04:49,310 --> 00:04:51,482
Today we're starting off,
we're kicking ass.
58
00:04:51,482 --> 00:04:52,793
The plan is simple.
59
00:04:52,793 --> 00:04:55,517
I need a third
of an ounce of gold an hour,
60
00:04:55,517 --> 00:04:58,586
and I need less than
a foot of overburden
61
00:04:58,586 --> 00:05:00,482
for my crawler
to work properly.
62
00:05:01,586 --> 00:05:03,620
After a disastrous summer,
63
00:05:03,620 --> 00:05:07,344
Kris Kelly
is looking to evolve
his winter operation,
64
00:05:07,344 --> 00:05:09,827
if he can just get
out of his own way.
65
00:05:09,827 --> 00:05:11,413
We're gonna get
Andy in the water,
66
00:05:11,413 --> 00:05:13,793
just because he doesn't
trust my prospecting skills,
67
00:05:13,793 --> 00:05:15,793
even though I'm always right.
68
00:05:15,793 --> 00:05:18,034
So it's gonna be
an exciting day.
69
00:05:18,034 --> 00:05:19,137
Summer was junk.
70
00:05:19,137 --> 00:05:21,758
We need to absolutely
crush it this winter.
71
00:05:21,758 --> 00:05:24,517
We're aiming for 50 ounces
and I've got just the ticket
72
00:05:24,517 --> 00:05:27,551
to upgrade Reaper Nation
and pull it off.
73
00:05:27,551 --> 00:05:30,655
Tomorrow at 2:00 p.m.,
my crawler gets here.
74
00:05:30,655 --> 00:05:33,137
I am so pumped.
I've been waiting for it.
75
00:05:33,137 --> 00:05:36,275
My secret weapon
is an underwater crawler.
76
00:05:36,275 --> 00:05:38,965
Basically, it's like
a vacuum cleaner
on the ocean floor.
77
00:05:38,965 --> 00:05:40,620
A robot vacuum cleaner.
78
00:05:40,620 --> 00:05:43,344
It's[bleep] strong, powerful,
should be able to move
79
00:05:43,344 --> 00:05:45,137
small rocks the size
of a truck.
80
00:05:45,137 --> 00:05:48,620
No more diving,
just the robot
getting our gold.
81
00:05:48,620 --> 00:05:52,965
That's how we'll separate
ourselves from everyone else
and reach the next level.
82
00:05:52,965 --> 00:05:55,000
So today, we've got to find
a good pay streak
83
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,344
with flat ground and not
a lot of overburden.
84
00:05:57,344 --> 00:06:00,896
Then we'll dominate
when the crawler gets here.
85
00:06:00,896 --> 00:06:02,482
We're getting
our sluice box in
86
00:06:02,482 --> 00:06:04,827
I'm getting Andy
to reserve his energy.
87
00:06:04,827 --> 00:06:09,793
- We're good to go.
- He's gonna get down there
and make our money today.
88
00:06:09,793 --> 00:06:14,034
I'm expecting more
gold and lots of work.
So I expanded my team.
89
00:06:14,034 --> 00:06:17,172
I added Daniel and Andrew,
and they're both rookies.
90
00:06:17,172 --> 00:06:20,448
So there's a lot of work to do
to get them up to speed.
91
00:06:20,448 --> 00:06:23,137
The foot valves and the
high-pressure line's next.
92
00:06:24,586 --> 00:06:26,620
Come on, Andrew, get in there.
Let's do this [bleep].
93
00:06:28,206 --> 00:06:31,482
Andrew, in particular,
he has the reaction
time of a sloth.
94
00:06:46,655 --> 00:06:49,482
Okay.
Let's do that right now.
Let's do that right now.
95
00:06:49,482 --> 00:06:51,206
Look, we don't
need a [bleep] sloth.
96
00:06:51,206 --> 00:06:54,482
Getting everything set up,
it's a little slow
in the beginning.
97
00:06:54,482 --> 00:06:55,689
We're like a pit crew.
98
00:06:55,689 --> 00:06:58,758
Every single day
we do it, we'll get faster.
99
00:06:58,758 --> 00:06:59,793
Got it.
100
00:07:01,965 --> 00:07:03,172
We're ready to go.
101
00:07:06,931 --> 00:07:09,241
Water is flowing,
everything's up and ready.
102
00:07:09,241 --> 00:07:11,137
We're gonna start
making some money.
103
00:07:11,137 --> 00:07:13,275
Yep.
Ready to dive, get it done.
104
00:07:17,413 --> 00:07:20,724
We really
need less than
a foot of overburden
105
00:07:20,724 --> 00:07:23,172
- from the crawler
to making sure it works.
- I know.
106
00:07:23,172 --> 00:07:26,551
And it would be nice
if we run better than
a third of an ounce.
107
00:07:26,551 --> 00:07:28,034
I'm not stopping
at a third of an ounce.
108
00:07:28,034 --> 00:07:29,689
- Well, that's nothing,
you know--
- Hey, I wanted...
109
00:07:29,689 --> 00:07:30,827
If I get a third,
110
00:07:30,827 --> 00:07:32,862
I want to keep going
and see if I can find better.
111
00:07:53,620 --> 00:07:56,689
- Okay. Check, check.
- Yeah, I can hear you.
112
00:07:56,689 --> 00:07:58,344
- Idle up.
- Okay.
113
00:07:58,344 --> 00:08:00,862
Idle up, Gabe you do it,
do it slowly.
114
00:08:07,344 --> 00:08:09,689
But I think it's cobble
with a little bit of sand.
115
00:08:17,034 --> 00:08:18,655
Okay. Let me figure out
what's wrong.
116
00:08:23,724 --> 00:08:25,517
Our engines are idled
all the way up.
117
00:08:25,517 --> 00:08:28,965
But for some reason, Andy has
no suction under the water.
118
00:08:28,965 --> 00:08:30,896
Now I have to put
my mechanic's hat on,
119
00:08:30,896 --> 00:08:32,965
which has never been
my specialty.
120
00:08:48,344 --> 00:08:49,758
We're good.
121
00:08:55,689 --> 00:08:58,275
You know how I fixed it?
With one [bleep] nail.
122
00:09:01,310 --> 00:09:03,931
So here's Kris,
the mechanic's solution.
123
00:09:03,931 --> 00:09:06,655
I put a nail in the wall
and hung the fuel line on it,
124
00:09:06,655 --> 00:09:10,068
so gravity will feed
the fuel to the engine.
125
00:09:10,068 --> 00:09:12,931
This is not exactly the
revolutionary new operation
126
00:09:12,931 --> 00:09:17,137
that I envisioned, but, man,
I can't wait till my crawler
gets here.
127
00:09:17,137 --> 00:09:19,413
- How's your suction?
- Good.
128
00:09:19,413 --> 00:09:22,206
Well, thank God.
I think I took care of our
problems up here,
129
00:09:22,206 --> 00:09:23,931
and we're gonna
start running smoother.
130
00:09:23,931 --> 00:09:27,000
It wasn't getting fuel at all.
131
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,965
Man, when you were
just giving me that little
speech, dude,
132
00:09:29,965 --> 00:09:32,310
I just found a crevice
that was full of gold.
133
00:09:33,137 --> 00:09:35,379
Well, good job.
134
00:09:38,068 --> 00:09:40,551
Found great gold.
I am so pumped.
135
00:09:40,551 --> 00:09:44,448
Minor difficulties
right now, nothing big.
Nothing I can't handle.
136
00:09:44,448 --> 00:09:46,793
But everything's fine.
Everything's fine.
137
00:09:46,793 --> 00:09:49,206
And at least
we're getting a lot of gold.
138
00:10:02,724 --> 00:10:06,034
In Nome,
if you ain't evolving,
you ain't surviving.
139
00:10:09,689 --> 00:10:11,758
And on the outskirts
of town...
140
00:10:11,758 --> 00:10:14,000
We got a big storm
coming in.
141
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:15,724
Time is money.
142
00:10:15,724 --> 00:10:19,689
Every hour you're not running,
that's another hour you ain't
making an ounce of gold.
143
00:10:19,689 --> 00:10:23,931
...the king of Nome
is trying to adapt to stay
ahead of the competition.
144
00:10:23,931 --> 00:10:27,275
I've never been this excited
about ice season.
145
00:10:27,275 --> 00:10:30,655
Having the mini excavator
changed the whole game
146
00:10:30,655 --> 00:10:32,724
you're almost,
even more efficient
147
00:10:32,724 --> 00:10:35,000
in the winter
than in the summer.
148
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,034
Every season
on the Bering Sea
is different.
149
00:10:37,034 --> 00:10:40,379
So my blueprint for mining
has always got to be changing.
150
00:10:40,379 --> 00:10:43,344
This winter, I developed
a new approach.
151
00:10:43,344 --> 00:10:46,689
I have the sherp now
that'll maximize my mobility
152
00:10:46,689 --> 00:10:48,862
and give me access
to new areas.
153
00:10:48,862 --> 00:10:50,344
And I have an excavator.
154
00:10:50,344 --> 00:10:52,551
The ultimate tool
for efficiency.
155
00:10:52,551 --> 00:10:56,689
We'll be able to dig holes
and pivot faster
than anybody else.
156
00:10:56,689 --> 00:10:58,310
Oh, yeah.
157
00:10:58,310 --> 00:11:02,103
And this year, I'm aiming
at a big goal, 100 ounces.
158
00:11:03,551 --> 00:11:06,103
But the biggest change of all
is the spot that I picked,
159
00:11:06,103 --> 00:11:09,206
the East Tract Claim,
not where I'm used to mining,
160
00:11:09,206 --> 00:11:12,655
but the drill hole, see,
there's an ancient
channel of gold.
161
00:11:12,655 --> 00:11:14,827
Trick is, it's deep,
real deep.
162
00:11:15,793 --> 00:11:18,482
You're 36 feet deep.
163
00:11:18,482 --> 00:11:21,517
I mean, a lot of guys
won't go out that deep.
164
00:11:21,517 --> 00:11:24,413
If something goes wrong,
you better figure out
165
00:11:24,413 --> 00:11:28,965
what the hell you need to do
to get the hell out of there
and get out of there quick.
166
00:11:28,965 --> 00:11:31,551
Otherwise, you're done.
167
00:11:31,551 --> 00:11:34,344
A lot of guys wouldn't take
a chance on ground this deep.
168
00:11:34,344 --> 00:11:37,275
You get far away
from the dive hole,
chance of the bends,
169
00:11:37,275 --> 00:11:39,413
ground freezing up.
170
00:11:39,413 --> 00:11:41,275
But I have to take the risk.
171
00:11:41,275 --> 00:11:42,724
There's guys
like Chris McCully
172
00:11:42,724 --> 00:11:46,241
just waiting for me
to slow down so they
can be the top dog.
173
00:11:46,241 --> 00:11:48,448
I just can't stick
to what's comfortable.
174
00:11:48,448 --> 00:11:50,931
I always have
to be pushing myself.
175
00:11:54,620 --> 00:11:55,724
Yes, sir.
176
00:11:55,724 --> 00:11:57,413
We're here, back in business.
177
00:12:02,551 --> 00:12:03,655
We're on it.
178
00:12:03,655 --> 00:12:05,000
Get that gold, Joe.
179
00:12:08,689 --> 00:12:11,862
The second diver on the hole,
I'm gonna get suited up,
180
00:12:11,862 --> 00:12:13,896
get down,
try to clean the hole up,
181
00:12:13,896 --> 00:12:17,448
finish it up, it's 'cause
we got a snow storm coming.
182
00:12:17,448 --> 00:12:20,482
Get down there
and pile up some gold.
183
00:12:20,482 --> 00:12:21,379
He thinks he's ready.
184
00:12:21,379 --> 00:12:23,275
We'll see when
he gets to the bottom.
185
00:12:23,275 --> 00:12:26,310
That gold, it might
just [bleep] shock him.
186
00:13:21,103 --> 00:13:23,482
Sounds like
he can see the bottom.
187
00:13:23,482 --> 00:13:24,965
That's good.
188
00:13:24,965 --> 00:13:26,931
If he can see the bottom,
he'll see the gold.
189
00:13:32,137 --> 00:13:33,655
Oh, yeah.
190
00:13:33,655 --> 00:13:36,344
There's some big chunks
of ice up above us.
191
00:13:38,068 --> 00:13:41,275
Right at this particular area,
you can see the big,
192
00:13:41,275 --> 00:13:43,827
huge chunks of ice
coming down.
193
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:50,862
That's why we got
the excavator.
194
00:13:50,862 --> 00:13:54,103
He'll dig me a new hole
and pull me out if he has to.
195
00:13:54,103 --> 00:14:00,413
But we ain't down here
to google at the ice,
we're here to make some money.
196
00:14:02,034 --> 00:14:03,931
Yeah, go ahead.
Throttle me up.
197
00:14:20,068 --> 00:14:21,344
[bleep] Dammit!
198
00:14:56,896 --> 00:15:00,482
Pry bar in one hand
and kind of pop your way along
as you're sucking it up.
199
00:15:01,551 --> 00:15:03,000
Come on, baby.
200
00:15:09,482 --> 00:15:11,103
Yeah. You got to bust
through the ground
201
00:15:11,103 --> 00:15:14,275
and kind of tear it down
layer by layer.
202
00:15:14,275 --> 00:15:15,724
A lot of potential in it.
203
00:15:27,517 --> 00:15:28,896
Come on, baby.
204
00:15:32,172 --> 00:15:33,275
We got it.
205
00:15:34,689 --> 00:15:36,275
Kind of fan it a little bit.
206
00:15:37,931 --> 00:15:41,310
You should be able
to see the gold
on top of here.
207
00:15:44,620 --> 00:15:46,137
Oh, yeah. Look at there.
208
00:15:47,482 --> 00:15:49,931
A piece there, a piece there,
a piece there.
209
00:15:51,448 --> 00:15:54,586
We can just get this stuff
going up the nozzle.
210
00:15:55,517 --> 00:15:58,137
We're gonna make
some money, honey.
211
00:15:58,137 --> 00:15:59,310
Booyah!
212
00:15:59,310 --> 00:16:02,965
You see gold, just keep
on digging, keep digging.
213
00:16:04,103 --> 00:16:05,344
Got to keep digging.
214
00:16:09,793 --> 00:16:12,862
As the mining
veteran keeps changing up
his game,
215
00:16:14,344 --> 00:16:16,000
across the ice...
216
00:16:20,689 --> 00:16:21,827
All right.
217
00:16:21,827 --> 00:16:23,379
Let's go. Let's go.
218
00:16:23,379 --> 00:16:25,068
Steve and I
got out here early.
219
00:16:25,068 --> 00:16:26,620
You can get
the ice off here.
220
00:16:26,620 --> 00:16:28,482
Waiting on Jeff
and Eddie.
221
00:16:28,482 --> 00:16:31,379
I like to call them Jeff...
What do I call them?
Jeffeddie, like confetti.
222
00:16:31,379 --> 00:16:32,586
Jeffeddie.
223
00:16:34,137 --> 00:16:37,034
With Emily
and Homer about to
deliver her baby,
224
00:16:37,034 --> 00:16:40,586
rookie Jane Kilcher
is just beginning
her evolution
225
00:16:40,586 --> 00:16:42,344
into an ice miner.
226
00:16:42,344 --> 00:16:46,241
No matter how many times
I do this, it's just...
It's never-ending.
227
00:16:46,241 --> 00:16:48,586
Really nice to be able to
have all the light possible.
228
00:16:48,586 --> 00:16:51,827
This is for light,
to get the light down there.
229
00:16:51,827 --> 00:16:53,206
You want the light
down to the bottom.
230
00:16:53,206 --> 00:16:54,724
Water's fine.
Come on in.
231
00:16:54,724 --> 00:16:56,172
Yeah.
232
00:16:56,172 --> 00:16:58,034
I'm starting from scratch
when it comes to ice mining.
233
00:16:58,034 --> 00:17:00,551
And it's pretty stressful
'cause I've never
done it before,
234
00:17:00,551 --> 00:17:03,724
so this is a big transformation
for me out here.
235
00:17:03,724 --> 00:17:06,103
Very excited,
but I'm definitely
feeling the pressure,
236
00:17:06,103 --> 00:17:08,482
because not only
is this my first time
ice mining,
237
00:17:08,482 --> 00:17:11,931
but I'm expected to be
like "Captain" Jane as well.
238
00:17:11,931 --> 00:17:14,482
I've got to come through
for Emily 'cause nobody
239
00:17:14,482 --> 00:17:17,724
wants to get
a pregnant woman worried
more than they need to.
240
00:17:17,724 --> 00:17:20,000
It's not pretty.
241
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,344
We're pretty excited.
We're doing real well.
242
00:17:22,344 --> 00:17:25,413
The crew is getting along.
We're well fed.
243
00:17:25,413 --> 00:17:27,517
- Jane's a hoot to work with.
- Whoo!
244
00:17:27,517 --> 00:17:29,379
Everyone's doing really well.
245
00:17:30,310 --> 00:17:32,655
Here come the boys.
246
00:17:33,413 --> 00:17:34,517
Hey, guys.
247
00:17:34,517 --> 00:17:36,137
We cleaned your hole.
248
00:17:36,137 --> 00:17:37,586
Today, we're gonna get
Jeff under the ice,
249
00:17:37,586 --> 00:17:39,344
which is totally
crazy to begin with.
250
00:17:39,344 --> 00:17:41,448
And hopefully,
today we get some gold.
251
00:17:41,448 --> 00:17:43,137
'Cause with the storm
that's coming, today might
252
00:17:43,137 --> 00:17:47,482
be our only day for getting
gold, like, for a while.
253
00:17:47,482 --> 00:17:51,103
Jeff's gonna drop down first.
We're ready to just get gold.
254
00:17:51,103 --> 00:17:53,413
Oh, thank you.
255
00:17:53,413 --> 00:17:58,103
If the word 'pull'
ever comes up on the
comms, start pulling.
256
00:17:58,103 --> 00:18:01,241
That's it.
Somebody needs to leave
the shack and start pulling.
257
00:18:01,241 --> 00:18:05,551
When it's 'pull' or 'air'
or 'I'm frozen' or...
258
00:18:05,551 --> 00:18:06,724
- 'Get me up.'
- ...you know--
259
00:18:06,724 --> 00:18:08,068
- Yeah.
- 'Help.'
260
00:18:08,068 --> 00:18:10,517
When the regulator freezes,
it freezes.
261
00:18:10,517 --> 00:18:13,344
There's no, like, it's...
262
00:18:13,344 --> 00:18:14,827
- I'm coming out of the water.
- Okay.
263
00:18:14,827 --> 00:18:15,965
- So...
- I hear ya.
264
00:18:15,965 --> 00:18:17,344
- Okay, all right.
- So,
265
00:18:17,344 --> 00:18:19,379
here we go.
Let's, uh...
266
00:18:24,620 --> 00:18:25,896
There it is.
267
00:18:25,896 --> 00:18:28,413
Eureka!
It's really gushing.
268
00:18:28,413 --> 00:18:29,689
All right.
269
00:18:37,551 --> 00:18:39,517
- Yeah, do you hear me?
- Yeah. Getting you
loud and clear.
270
00:18:39,517 --> 00:18:41,172
- ...
- Wow, loud.
271
00:18:44,172 --> 00:18:45,517
That's what we're here for.
272
00:19:03,793 --> 00:19:04,931
You're at 120.
273
00:19:06,655 --> 00:19:07,793
Thank you, Jane.
274
00:19:12,620 --> 00:19:15,586
Whoo!
275
00:19:17,620 --> 00:19:20,413
He's on the bottom.
276
00:19:21,103 --> 00:19:22,379
Oh, that's awesome.
277
00:19:32,275 --> 00:19:33,413
Copy that.
278
00:19:45,068 --> 00:19:46,448
Whoo!
279
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:56,137
Oh, man.
280
00:19:56,137 --> 00:19:57,827
I'm gonna text Emily
and let her know.
281
00:20:24,862 --> 00:20:26,172
What are you on?
282
00:20:26,172 --> 00:20:28,551
I'm on really
good gold.
283
00:20:42,448 --> 00:20:43,655
So packed full of gold?
284
00:20:49,344 --> 00:20:50,965
For the first time
this winter,
285
00:20:50,965 --> 00:20:54,965
the Kellys may finally
have the building blocks
for success...
286
00:20:54,965 --> 00:20:55,827
Well, good job.
287
00:21:07,689 --> 00:21:09,103
...or maybe not.
288
00:21:11,034 --> 00:21:13,482
Sorry, buddy.
We're having engine
problems again.
289
00:21:13,482 --> 00:21:15,137
Oh, that [bleep] sucks.
290
00:21:21,275 --> 00:21:22,896
It's running
like a sack of[bleep].
291
00:21:31,448 --> 00:21:34,206
The problem is, they've
been running the engine
292
00:21:34,206 --> 00:21:37,586
with the choke on
for two days.
293
00:21:37,586 --> 00:21:40,103
Everything just went
to [bleep] real fast.
294
00:21:41,344 --> 00:21:43,068
So the guys have been
leaving the choke on.
295
00:21:43,068 --> 00:21:44,448
That's not good.
296
00:21:44,448 --> 00:21:46,275
Guess who? Everybody
out there knows,
297
00:21:46,275 --> 00:21:49,241
not putting the choke back in
will ruin your engine
298
00:21:49,241 --> 00:21:51,034
if you run it at high speeds.
299
00:21:51,034 --> 00:21:52,551
It can fry it fast.
300
00:21:52,551 --> 00:21:54,931
!
301
00:21:55,965 --> 00:21:57,448
Hey look.
We're lighting
302
00:21:57,448 --> 00:22:00,172
everything on fire in there.
303
00:22:00,172 --> 00:22:03,172
That right there was wrapped
around like a circle
304
00:22:03,172 --> 00:22:05,827
around the foot valves
and the extension cord.
305
00:22:05,827 --> 00:22:08,551
So everything's touching it
and melting it.
306
00:22:08,551 --> 00:22:11,413
So we're literally
gonna light everything
on fire today.
307
00:22:13,896 --> 00:22:16,413
While inspecting the engines,
I also noticed that
308
00:22:16,413 --> 00:22:18,379
someone coiled
the exhaust line,
309
00:22:18,379 --> 00:22:19,931
and everything is heating up.
310
00:22:19,931 --> 00:22:23,000
Trust me, I know
what a fire hazard looks like.
311
00:22:25,413 --> 00:22:29,241
Oh, we just lost our entire
winter mining operation.
312
00:22:32,103 --> 00:22:33,413
Now we're down an engine.
313
00:22:33,413 --> 00:22:36,275
And so, basically,
our suction power will suck.
314
00:22:39,931 --> 00:22:42,068
Sorry, one of our engines
are[bleep] up.
315
00:22:42,068 --> 00:22:43,482
I figured out
what the problem was.
316
00:22:44,931 --> 00:22:46,517
I got a bunch
of [bleep] idiots
317
00:22:46,517 --> 00:22:49,172
constantly surrounding me
at all times.
318
00:22:51,482 --> 00:22:54,241
So we were running it yesterday
319
00:22:54,241 --> 00:22:57,862
with the choke on
and ruining our engine.
320
00:23:01,482 --> 00:23:03,586
'Cause everything's
falling apart in there.
321
00:23:03,586 --> 00:23:05,862
The exhausters
are burning everything.
322
00:23:07,551 --> 00:23:10,000
How's your
suction down there
with just one engine?
323
00:23:12,620 --> 00:23:14,482
Hey, do you want
to call it a day?
324
00:23:14,482 --> 00:23:17,137
Break down everything,
fix everything again?
325
00:23:25,448 --> 00:23:27,413
We can point fingers
and guess all day long,
326
00:23:27,413 --> 00:23:30,551
but someone left that
throttle open since yesterday.
327
00:23:30,551 --> 00:23:34,379
And now it's time for
a game I like to call
"Who [bleep] me?"
328
00:23:38,896 --> 00:23:40,448
It could
have been Andrew.
329
00:23:40,448 --> 00:23:41,793
It could have been Daniel.
330
00:23:41,793 --> 00:23:43,793
Let's not forget about
my brother,
331
00:23:43,793 --> 00:23:46,793
and last but not least,
Turtle, who set up my engine
332
00:23:46,793 --> 00:23:48,724
and who's not here today.
333
00:23:48,724 --> 00:23:50,827
So who's the POS
that did this?
334
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:54,862
Were you running
the engine yesterday
335
00:23:54,862 --> 00:23:56,344
with that throttle not off?
336
00:24:00,344 --> 00:24:02,137
- Who said that? Turtle?
- Turtle.
337
00:24:02,793 --> 00:24:04,517
Yeah.
338
00:24:04,517 --> 00:24:05,965
It was Turtle.
339
00:24:09,896 --> 00:24:11,379
Turtle!
340
00:24:13,206 --> 00:24:15,034
This is the second day
of mining.
341
00:24:15,034 --> 00:24:16,862
These are all the problems
that, you know,
342
00:24:16,862 --> 00:24:18,586
at the beginning
of the season,
343
00:24:18,586 --> 00:24:20,827
even though these are dumb problems.
344
00:24:20,827 --> 00:24:22,379
Dumb [bleep] problems.
345
00:24:24,379 --> 00:24:26,172
Okay, well, let's pack up
and get the
out of here.
346
00:24:26,172 --> 00:24:27,275
I've had enough for today.
347
00:24:32,068 --> 00:24:33,448
Saw a nice
amount of gold,
348
00:24:33,448 --> 00:24:35,241
I can't even
touch it.
349
00:24:35,241 --> 00:24:37,172
That was a bust to me.
350
00:24:37,172 --> 00:24:38,931
Nothing pisses me off
more than
351
00:24:38,931 --> 00:24:42,241
looking at the gold
and knowing I can't touch it.
352
00:24:42,241 --> 00:24:44,068
That's the worst [bleep] part.
353
00:24:48,655 --> 00:24:50,689
While the Kellys
face more problems...
354
00:24:53,275 --> 00:24:54,275
across the ice...
355
00:24:57,448 --> 00:24:59,000
Hey, John.
356
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:00,896
How you doing with the Gs?
357
00:25:04,482 --> 00:25:05,620
Woohoo!
358
00:25:06,827 --> 00:25:10,172
John is the gold dog
in this operation right now.
359
00:25:10,172 --> 00:25:12,931
Chris McCully's
operation is blossoming,
360
00:25:12,931 --> 00:25:16,413
as his gold dog has logged
four hours of bite
361
00:25:16,413 --> 00:25:17,620
under the ice.
362
00:25:17,620 --> 00:25:18,827
All right, John.
363
00:25:18,827 --> 00:25:21,206
I'm gonna send you
the drone down there.
364
00:25:21,206 --> 00:25:22,724
I'll give it instructions.
365
00:25:22,724 --> 00:25:24,172
That sounds good.
366
00:25:25,172 --> 00:25:26,344
John is killing it.
367
00:25:26,344 --> 00:25:28,379
The gold is flowing nonstop.
368
00:25:28,379 --> 00:25:31,068
The storm is coming in fast,
so it's time to unleash
369
00:25:31,068 --> 00:25:32,517
my other gold dog.
370
00:25:32,517 --> 00:25:35,827
It's the missing link,
the underwater drone.
371
00:25:37,103 --> 00:25:39,241
It's like an animal
out in the wild,
372
00:25:39,241 --> 00:25:41,413
always searching for that
next meal.
373
00:25:44,379 --> 00:25:45,275
The same thing as me.
374
00:25:49,275 --> 00:25:50,896
So this drone is really sick.
375
00:25:50,896 --> 00:25:52,620
I can just send it down there
376
00:25:52,620 --> 00:25:54,172
and move it around
the sea floor
377
00:25:54,172 --> 00:25:56,068
and I can easily
find new ground.
378
00:25:56,068 --> 00:25:58,931
And it's way faster than
sending a diver down there.
379
00:25:58,931 --> 00:26:01,379
If I'm gonna end up
on top this winter,
380
00:26:01,379 --> 00:26:03,689
I've got to keep looking
for this kind of edge.
381
00:26:04,965 --> 00:26:08,034
This is the baddest,
the greatest,
382
00:26:08,034 --> 00:26:11,137
the latest prospecting tool.
383
00:26:11,137 --> 00:26:12,931
All right.
We're gonna go down.
384
00:26:12,931 --> 00:26:14,379
I'm gonna start descending.
385
00:26:22,034 --> 00:26:23,068
Okay.
386
00:26:23,068 --> 00:26:26,034
Now I'm slowly
approaching John.
387
00:26:26,034 --> 00:26:28,034
- Yeah.
- I can
see his umbilical.
388
00:26:33,724 --> 00:26:34,896
Hey, John. Come on.
389
00:26:34,896 --> 00:26:37,137
I'll let you grab
the ROV and then...
390
00:26:42,034 --> 00:26:44,206
All right. Okay.
Here we go. Approaching.
391
00:26:45,551 --> 00:26:46,689
All right. I got it.
392
00:26:46,689 --> 00:26:48,034
All right.
Go ahead. Yep.
393
00:26:48,034 --> 00:26:49,689
Keep it level.
394
00:26:49,689 --> 00:26:51,068
I'm gonna take, uh...
395
00:26:54,413 --> 00:26:57,379
It looks like it
is facing towards north east.
396
00:27:00,206 --> 00:27:03,000
Okay.
You can let go of the drone
and then I'll go, uh...
397
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:04,586
We'll go ahead
and scout that area.
398
00:27:08,310 --> 00:27:09,241
There you go.
399
00:27:21,758 --> 00:27:23,103
Yeah!
400
00:27:38,448 --> 00:27:40,482
Wow.
401
00:27:42,379 --> 00:27:43,620
Yeah. So look at this.
402
00:27:43,620 --> 00:27:46,275
This is real promising area.
403
00:27:46,275 --> 00:27:50,620
I like this ground
because it goes uphill
and then it goes...
404
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:58,586
I think we're gonna...
We're gonna make
405
00:27:58,586 --> 00:28:00,344
our next hole over here, dude.
406
00:28:00,344 --> 00:28:02,275
I had a great feeling
about this.
407
00:28:02,275 --> 00:28:04,448
I'm locked into the position
right now.
408
00:28:04,448 --> 00:28:06,758
I... I know exactly
where it is.
409
00:28:07,620 --> 00:28:09,827
John, it's been four hours.
410
00:28:09,827 --> 00:28:13,344
I'm ready to get out here
before the storm comes in,
you know.
411
00:28:13,344 --> 00:28:15,137
So, come up
whenever you're ready.
412
00:28:16,586 --> 00:28:17,620
Yeah.
413
00:28:18,724 --> 00:28:21,655
So this storm is about to hit,
but John killed it.
414
00:28:21,655 --> 00:28:23,000
He was on the gold
the whole time
415
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:24,551
and the drone found
some new ground
416
00:28:24,551 --> 00:28:27,172
and I can't wait to dive on it
next time.
417
00:28:27,172 --> 00:28:28,862
This is my plan
for the season.
418
00:28:28,862 --> 00:28:31,275
I'm just gonna keep producing
and producing
419
00:28:31,275 --> 00:28:33,137
and always stay
one step ahead.
420
00:28:38,206 --> 00:28:39,896
I did my due diligence.
421
00:28:39,896 --> 00:28:43,310
So now you have ground
for the next hole, really.
422
00:28:43,310 --> 00:28:44,379
So...
423
00:28:46,724 --> 00:28:49,000
I'm ready
to get out of here.
424
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:50,482
We're done we're finished.
425
00:28:50,482 --> 00:28:51,827
Finito.
426
00:29:05,689 --> 00:29:06,586
Yeah.
427
00:29:12,241 --> 00:29:13,310
Little by little.
428
00:29:16,103 --> 00:29:17,103
Booyah!
429
00:29:17,103 --> 00:29:18,413
Mr. Gold's rolling with
430
00:29:18,413 --> 00:29:21,344
every punch
Mother Nature throws,
431
00:29:21,344 --> 00:29:24,034
determined to crack through
a frozen pay streak
432
00:29:24,034 --> 00:29:25,620
before the storm hits Nome.
433
00:29:25,620 --> 00:29:27,620
Oh, yeah.
Look at there.
434
00:29:30,448 --> 00:29:31,206
Yeah, it is.
435
00:29:34,172 --> 00:29:36,586
There's definitely
gonna be some good
gold in the box.
436
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:42,172
Big storm coming in, so
I better come on up, honey.
437
00:29:57,172 --> 00:29:58,000
Whoo!
438
00:29:58,931 --> 00:30:00,482
yeah.
439
00:30:11,068 --> 00:30:12,517
That wasn't easy.
440
00:30:12,517 --> 00:30:15,034
The water at this depth
is so cold,
441
00:30:15,034 --> 00:30:17,068
it freezes
the bottom rock hard.
442
00:30:17,068 --> 00:30:19,310
Had to chip away at it
for hours.
443
00:30:19,310 --> 00:30:22,689
Good thing is, I cleared out
the hole before the storm hit,
444
00:30:22,689 --> 00:30:24,793
and I think
it's gonna be huge.
445
00:30:30,172 --> 00:30:31,379
Yeah, it's beautiful.
446
00:30:31,862 --> 00:30:33,379
That's a wrap.
447
00:30:34,482 --> 00:30:35,586
Way too good.
448
00:30:42,310 --> 00:30:43,344
Five miles east...
449
00:30:45,068 --> 00:30:46,344
How are you
doing down there?
450
00:30:52,620 --> 00:30:55,965
Are you talking about
the air or your hair?
451
00:30:59,103 --> 00:31:01,068
Oh, that's at 110.
Your hair...
452
00:31:06,241 --> 00:31:08,896
As the storm
creeps a 'hair' closer,
453
00:31:08,896 --> 00:31:11,413
Jane's knee deep
in the earliest stage
454
00:31:11,413 --> 00:31:13,379
of her ice-mining career.
455
00:31:16,241 --> 00:31:17,793
Just coming up
on three hours.
456
00:31:18,344 --> 00:31:19,344
How's the view?
457
00:31:28,655 --> 00:31:30,379
All right.
What do you need me to do?
458
00:31:34,517 --> 00:31:35,896
All right, [bleep].
459
00:31:54,448 --> 00:31:56,000
Nope, one more time.
460
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,275
Eddie, he said one more time.
461
00:31:59,344 --> 00:32:00,310
Give it a couple seconds.
462
00:32:43,172 --> 00:32:45,034
Okay, I'll tell them.
463
00:32:45,034 --> 00:32:46,103
Hey.
464
00:32:46,103 --> 00:32:47,965
Cut. You can't...
Killin' it.
465
00:32:47,965 --> 00:32:49,137
We're done.
466
00:32:52,275 --> 00:32:54,034
I'm gonna be honest,
I'm not really sure
what happened,
467
00:32:54,034 --> 00:32:55,793
but Jeff wanted to call it.
468
00:32:55,793 --> 00:32:57,586
Something stuck
in one of these blue pipes,
469
00:32:57,586 --> 00:32:59,172
and tore out the full power.
470
00:32:59,172 --> 00:33:00,586
We have to fix that.
471
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,448
So we're having a great day
and we're doing really well,
472
00:33:04,448 --> 00:33:07,310
but then now,
something's totally
freaky with the hose
473
00:33:07,310 --> 00:33:09,482
and we're having no suction.
474
00:33:09,482 --> 00:33:10,758
So we're shutting down
for the day
475
00:33:10,758 --> 00:33:13,034
and we're gonna figure out,
like, what is the problem?
476
00:33:13,034 --> 00:33:15,724
Not the way I wanted things
to go on our first dive.
477
00:33:22,034 --> 00:33:22,965
Yeah.
478
00:33:29,310 --> 00:33:30,448
Okay. So...
479
00:33:33,896 --> 00:33:36,862
When we were building it,
had a buddy of mine helping,
480
00:33:36,862 --> 00:33:39,827
and we mysteriously
lost a tape measure.
481
00:33:41,793 --> 00:33:42,931
But we found it.
482
00:33:44,241 --> 00:33:45,724
Today is the day.
483
00:33:45,724 --> 00:33:47,379
Obviously, you know,
we had a little plug.
484
00:33:47,379 --> 00:33:48,724
And I'm coming up trying
to figure out
485
00:33:48,724 --> 00:33:52,000
where this plug is,
and long story short,
486
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,724
there's a tape measure
in a four-inch pipe.
487
00:33:54,724 --> 00:33:56,758
- It's literally...
- Yeah.
488
00:33:56,758 --> 00:33:58,724
- ...sideways
in the venturi.
- Yeah.
489
00:33:58,724 --> 00:34:02,275
Taking about 70%
of the power easily.
490
00:34:02,275 --> 00:34:03,517
- Oh, my gosh.
- Yeah.
491
00:34:03,517 --> 00:34:04,689
- Easy, easy.
- Yeah.
492
00:34:09,034 --> 00:34:13,379
Well, you know,
surgeons leave scissors
493
00:34:13,379 --> 00:34:16,068
sometimes inside your body
and then they stitch you up
494
00:34:16,068 --> 00:34:17,413
and then you've got
a pair of scissors.
495
00:34:18,931 --> 00:34:21,275
Well, in this case,
it's a tape measure
496
00:34:21,275 --> 00:34:22,793
that's in our jet.
497
00:34:24,517 --> 00:34:26,931
First day of my
ice-mining experience
498
00:34:26,931 --> 00:34:28,655
and the good news
is we found gold.
499
00:34:28,655 --> 00:34:31,517
Bad news is we had
to shut down for the day.
500
00:34:31,517 --> 00:34:35,275
It was kind of a gong show,
so I definitely have
room to grow.
501
00:34:35,275 --> 00:34:37,137
I'm definitely gonna
tell Emily about the gold.
502
00:34:37,137 --> 00:34:39,310
I'm definitely
not going to tell Emily
503
00:34:39,310 --> 00:34:40,482
about the tape measure.
504
00:34:42,068 --> 00:34:43,310
Somebody grab
the tape measure?
505
00:34:44,586 --> 00:34:45,655
I haven't seen it.
506
00:34:51,413 --> 00:34:53,000
- Yeah!
- Yeah.
507
00:35:00,103 --> 00:35:04,896
So right here,
we have the pimpmobile,
John's pimpmobile.
508
00:35:06,689 --> 00:35:09,103
John always rides
with a flat tire.
509
00:35:09,103 --> 00:35:12,586
He, uh,
he said it adds traction.
510
00:35:12,586 --> 00:35:14,655
Manual deflation tire.
511
00:35:14,655 --> 00:35:18,034
So, every...
Every night, after he dives,
512
00:35:18,034 --> 00:35:22,310
he has to pump his...
He has to pump his tire
every night.
513
00:35:31,172 --> 00:35:33,379
One night, he, uh,
he was pumping his tire
514
00:35:33,379 --> 00:35:35,103
and his 12-volt pump
caught on fire...
515
00:35:37,275 --> 00:35:39,482
and he had to walk home.
516
00:35:41,896 --> 00:35:44,586
So I was like, "Oh,
happens, I guess."
517
00:35:46,724 --> 00:35:49,931
John's pimpmobile.
518
00:36:00,827 --> 00:36:03,034
The storm has arrived,
519
00:36:03,034 --> 00:36:06,241
and although it's wiped out
all life on the ice,
520
00:36:06,241 --> 00:36:08,793
two miners manage to thrive.
521
00:36:11,206 --> 00:36:12,275
And in Nome...
522
00:36:13,965 --> 00:36:16,793
So freaking
heavy, dude.
523
00:36:19,275 --> 00:36:21,172
...the fleet's young gun
is looking for proof
524
00:36:21,172 --> 00:36:23,827
that he's got the momentum
to reach the top.
525
00:36:23,827 --> 00:36:25,413
Yeah.
526
00:36:25,413 --> 00:36:26,758
Looking good so far.
527
00:36:26,758 --> 00:36:28,517
Lumps of gold right there.
528
00:36:28,517 --> 00:36:31,482
On the Bering Sea,
you've always got
to be adapting.
529
00:36:31,482 --> 00:36:34,827
We knew the storm was coming
and that we needed
to clear out
530
00:36:34,827 --> 00:36:38,827
this hole fast and, you know,
find a new one simultaneously.
531
00:36:38,827 --> 00:36:40,137
We did that.
532
00:36:40,137 --> 00:36:43,241
Now, I just want to see
a strong number on that scale.
533
00:36:43,241 --> 00:36:45,862
All right, we're ready.
We're ready to weigh it out.
534
00:36:45,862 --> 00:36:47,379
Yeah, we're gonna
go by grams.
535
00:36:47,379 --> 00:36:49,000
- Okay, here we go.
- Got it.
536
00:36:51,517 --> 00:36:56,482
We got 40, 60, 100, 200.
537
00:36:57,931 --> 00:36:59,275
300.
538
00:37:01,275 --> 00:37:02,793
400.
539
00:37:07,482 --> 00:37:09,206
446.
540
00:37:09,206 --> 00:37:11,137
442 grams.
541
00:37:11,137 --> 00:37:15,586
So that translates
into 442 grams
542
00:37:15,586 --> 00:37:19,344
divided by 31.1 troy ounces.
543
00:37:20,413 --> 00:37:22,000
We got 14 ounces.
544
00:37:23,241 --> 00:37:24,965
Whoo!
545
00:37:26,413 --> 00:37:31,206
Fourteen ounces
is worth over $26,000.
546
00:37:31,206 --> 00:37:35,241
Evidence that
Chris's blueprint
for growth has legs.
547
00:37:35,241 --> 00:37:37,482
This is a good start
for us.
548
00:37:37,482 --> 00:37:39,275
My crew is happy.
549
00:37:39,275 --> 00:37:41,965
Olson and John
is really happy.
550
00:37:41,965 --> 00:37:43,965
I could not be
more excited the way
551
00:37:43,965 --> 00:37:45,275
this winter's been going.
552
00:37:45,275 --> 00:37:47,758
I don't know
where Shawn's season's
at right now,
553
00:37:47,758 --> 00:37:49,310
but I think
he'll be hard-pressed
554
00:37:49,310 --> 00:37:50,793
to have this much gold.
555
00:37:50,793 --> 00:37:53,413
We're just gonna keep crushing
anything in our path
556
00:37:53,413 --> 00:37:55,655
for the rest of the season.
557
00:37:55,655 --> 00:37:58,068
Tomorrow is a new day.
We're gonna go back again.
558
00:37:58,068 --> 00:38:00,551
We're gonna keep mining,
but right now,
559
00:38:00,551 --> 00:38:02,586
we're ahead
of the game, baby.
560
00:38:02,586 --> 00:38:05,862
We're ahead of the game,
kicking ass, you know.
561
00:38:07,448 --> 00:38:09,655
Chris grows
stronger by the day.
562
00:38:12,482 --> 00:38:13,482
But across town...
563
00:38:17,275 --> 00:38:18,758
What have we got here?
564
00:38:18,758 --> 00:38:20,931
Nice, big, fat clean-up.
565
00:38:20,931 --> 00:38:23,172
That's what we're looking for.
566
00:38:23,172 --> 00:38:24,655
...Shawn's new strategy
567
00:38:24,655 --> 00:38:26,482
also looks to be
reaping dividends.
568
00:38:27,758 --> 00:38:29,068
Get that gold, Joe.
569
00:38:35,068 --> 00:38:37,000
I was seeing gold
the whole time I was down,
570
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,310
but it was frozen.
Really hard to move.
571
00:38:39,310 --> 00:38:41,758
Need to hit the jackpot
before the storm hit.
572
00:38:41,758 --> 00:38:43,517
By the looks of it,
we killed it.
573
00:38:43,965 --> 00:38:45,000
Feels good.
574
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,413
Feels nice, a handful of gold.
575
00:38:48,413 --> 00:38:50,241
Now it's time to put it
on the scale.
576
00:38:50,241 --> 00:38:51,586
Let's see a big number.
577
00:38:53,931 --> 00:38:57,068
Oh, baby.
578
00:38:57,068 --> 00:38:59,068
That's a nice pile
of gold there.
579
00:38:59,068 --> 00:39:00,413
Oh, yeah.
580
00:39:00,413 --> 00:39:02,000
It's looking good.
581
00:39:02,862 --> 00:39:03,862
Ooh.
582
00:39:04,620 --> 00:39:06,793
Let's see what we got here.
583
00:39:07,517 --> 00:39:08,655
What are you thinking?
584
00:39:08,655 --> 00:39:10,241
Over 20, that's for sure.
585
00:39:11,310 --> 00:39:14,896
Five, ten, 15.
586
00:39:15,310 --> 00:39:16,448
Come on.
587
00:39:16,448 --> 00:39:17,896
17.
588
00:39:17,896 --> 00:39:19,137
20.
589
00:39:19,137 --> 00:39:21,517
Oh, 22.
590
00:39:21,517 --> 00:39:23,482
27.
591
00:39:24,517 --> 00:39:26,275
28.15.
592
00:39:28,034 --> 00:39:30,965
Heck, yeah.
593
00:39:30,965 --> 00:39:33,620
That will put a smile
on your face.
594
00:39:33,620 --> 00:39:38,482
28.15 ounces
is worth over $53,000.
595
00:39:38,482 --> 00:39:41,931
And the frozen pay streak
proved to be red hot.
596
00:39:42,931 --> 00:39:44,000
This is beautiful.
597
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,172
It looks like
a big pile of cash to me.
598
00:39:46,172 --> 00:39:47,931
Yeah. Yes, indeed.
599
00:39:49,068 --> 00:39:52,275
Off the bottom of
the ocean floor, in the pan,
600
00:39:52,275 --> 00:39:54,655
it'll be in the bank here
pretty soon.
601
00:39:54,655 --> 00:39:56,034
Oh, yeah.
602
00:39:56,034 --> 00:39:57,793
Well, the moral
of the story is,
603
00:39:57,793 --> 00:39:59,724
no matter how many years
you've been mining,
604
00:39:59,724 --> 00:40:01,551
no matter
how successful you are,
605
00:40:01,551 --> 00:40:03,275
you always have
to keep learning,
606
00:40:03,275 --> 00:40:06,482
growing and improving,
and you can't ever quit.
607
00:40:06,482 --> 00:40:08,275
That's the only way
to stay on top
608
00:40:08,275 --> 00:40:11,241
and to keep everybody
that's chasing you
at a distance.
609
00:40:12,310 --> 00:40:14,482
I think we can fill it up
if we hit the right spot.
610
00:40:14,482 --> 00:40:15,551
Mmm-hmm.
611
00:40:15,551 --> 00:40:17,689
Keep moving at pace.
612
00:40:17,689 --> 00:40:19,275
Get back out there
and get it.
613
00:40:19,275 --> 00:40:20,482
Mmm-hmm.
614
00:40:23,137 --> 00:40:25,758
Mr. Gold
still atop the gold chain,
615
00:40:25,758 --> 00:40:28,172
but young gun, Chris McCully,
is quickly growing
616
00:40:28,172 --> 00:40:29,379
into a threat.
617
00:40:32,137 --> 00:40:35,655
Next time
on Bering Sea Gold...
618
00:40:35,655 --> 00:40:38,379
There's a
snowmachine race
called the Nome-Golovin.
619
00:40:38,379 --> 00:40:40,103
Oh, yeah.
620
00:40:42,448 --> 00:40:43,724
All right. Go on in.
621
00:40:49,551 --> 00:40:51,448
Heck yeah, baby.
622
00:40:51,448 --> 00:40:52,758
Sweet, I'm gonna suit up
623
00:40:52,758 --> 00:40:54,482
and then I'll send
you down, Nate.
624
00:40:54,482 --> 00:40:57,793
We're supposed
to go down to the ice
for the first time today.
625
00:40:57,793 --> 00:41:01,724
I'm expecting Daniel
and Andrew to get down there.
626
00:41:03,379 --> 00:41:06,620
Hey, you're not
supposed to
swallow the gasoline.
627
00:41:11,379 --> 00:41:12,689
Come up.
628
00:41:14,413 --> 00:41:16,000
All right, this is the spot.
629
00:41:24,689 --> 00:41:25,827
This is very bad.
630
00:41:25,827 --> 00:41:27,482
Very bad. Very bad.
