Bottle Diggers Need to Be Careful and Not Dig Alone

Another sad note in today's news:
A WVa man died digging for bottles earlier this week. James Truchan was crushed when his dump site caved in on him. Our condolences to his family. RIP, Mr. Truchan.

Last month we reported on another dig accident:
WILMINGTON, NC - A man recently had his privy hole collapse and trap him. Fortunately he's fine.


There are several fire crews and police officers on the scene in downtown Wilmington for this rescue effort.

But wait - there's more Digging News-Bits!
American Digger Magazine shared their good news. They are involved behind-the-scenes with a new reality tv show about relic digging called -- yep -- American Digger!
"There is treasure buried in the backyards of everyday Americans but they just don't know it… until now.  "American Digger" follows former professional wrestler turned modern day relic hunter Ric Savage, as he and his team from American Savage target areas such as battlefields and historic sites in the hopes of striking it rich and capitalizing on unearthing and selling bits of American history." Read more about the show here.
