Parker Goes ALL OUT On $15 Million New Dominion Creek Claim | Gold Rush 

I bet he starts starving to death soon... 🤣

Do you really think people don’t understand that?

Well, you know, they gotta make it a little exciting for people

You mean this isn’t actually reality TV? My whole life watching “reality tv” is shattered. It’s all a lie. Is my life even reality?

The scripted drama is why I personally got rid of cable. I loved this show….but the blatant unnecessary drama was too much

damn its so annoying. Feels like first 2minutes they just repeating everything

How much

@@Skafiskafnjak51 they do, the end of every scene before a commercial is replayed at the start of coming back from a commercial. Add's like 8-12 seconds before and after. Combine that with only a 22 minutes episode and when you really go over the entire epi you only really have 16-17 minutes of content. The rest if filler repeaters or "mini trailers" for the next scene. Its wild.

Obviously considering it’s a scripted show and it’s not his personal money.

@@dano8335 lol ok

@@dano8335 It's not scripted, but it's television., it's produced! And yea, he is owner of his company, so it's his money.

@@Dbrusse it’s no different than WWE. Yes they improvise and the take is random but every other aspect shown on tv is 100% planned… it’s kind weird I have to explain this to someone who is likely an adult.

Agree, he always finds a way.

Exactly. Save the drama for your mama and show us the damn gold! 😂

Nah it doesn't move that drastically. You're talking thousands of years for that kind of migration

$15 million dump

You read the script too?

Lease it to Tony. That would be full circle

That's what I felt like lol, that guy wanted to retire, and he was like, this place is done, give me $15mil kid lol. I think this was a poor decision from Parker.

I mean maybe but that is a lot of land and I am sure the guy was able to save more than 15m since this show started , even if he won't get as much out of it he will still be just fine financially lol​@@joshn1678

That is a possibility, or the toothbrush guy was tired of all the headaches that go with running an operation like that. That's a lot of stress out of your life, not worrying about every little aspect of your business.

i agree , looked a bit fishy

I think Parker is smarter than that...they made it look like he just happened to have a chance at new property and jumped at it with out doing his research. These guys know each other, they know whats there and how to get it. The guy just wanted out...they still have to see each other, it's a small community. All of parkers friends would have set him straight if it wasn't legit.

i agree that its legit but its normal to make it look better than it seems .. so time will tell i guess, but good point @@robanderson4137

OR its all for show and you know "acted reality television" to make it a little interesting and suspenseful for the viewers...... U think dude gonna drop $15mill with out attorneys, contracts, surveying the land.

No he doesn't.......any mining land is not allowed to be used as any kind collateral, that land is rented from the government. The land he actually owns is tiny.

Yea but his 20 mil in equipment can. Any bank worth a shit would finance him.

obviously he has some money put away or with loans. you don't have $15M gone and don't back yourself up running a gold mine. he knows what it's going to cost to run it to a certain extent. all the drama is for TV. he will be fine.

😂 that equipment is all financed..

@@stefanjohnson9480 you mean his dad knows lol where do you think the backing comes from ...his dad's major construction company! Lol his dad's business is one of only few out there! Most equipment he gets is from daddy 😂😂 he also maintains the roads in the area

What’s the weight of one yard. How do you compare cost per yard vs ton? Just trying to put in perspective I know

Correct , but what is the fun in that?

They need it all for reclamation... but he could sell bags of paydirt...

Selling the gold from 5 thousand yards of dirt has to be easier than selling 5 thousand yards of rock or gravel..

@@daddyoh63 good point

scraper op here, agree a 12 team push-pull crew would take a day or two to strip it all in ideal conditions ie dry ground. Scrapers do not perform well in muddy or wet conditions, they slide around too much.

Just tell me. Don't make me work damnit

never gonna happen. maybe after they were done.. Maybe. Takes one EPA visit to get shut down forever

It's lreland not Laylad where on the map is that I didn't type that just to clarify things

First...don't think...let discovery channel do that for you. Of course you're thinking he bit off more than he can chew...that's what they want you to think...and so you do. The reality is quite different than that and you'll not know how much he can chew until the show has ended 10 years from now. I of course think you are wrong on the whole chewing thing,...I think he can chew quite a bit more. Lots more.

Disagree, Parker at 28 is a seasoned and proven miner, he'll make insane money with insane clean ups there. I'd put everything I own on it lol.

Gold is also useless. We've just decided "shiny rock" is valuable.

@@voetbal12 what makes you say gold is useless its what allows us to have such efficient and small electronics

Endorse and enforce on behalf of the principal by the agent

Because he has no idea what he is doing. He is making more money off of others people assessment hence why he is still a junior miner

Because he has a strong family that shaped him to be a good hard working man....Parker is a role model

He's a good guy. I don't like him because he looks identical to my best friend that knocked my woman up lol.

Jealousy

@@JasonPutschker-xw9uf bro he doing pretty darn good imo

If that's it, he has a bad agent. He could threaten to leave and the show would die. I'd be asking closer to 1 Million per show. Discovery owns everything on TV pretty much. They got the pockets for it.

Parker isn't trying to find gold, he already has the drilling reports that give him an idea of how much gold is there. He's just stripping off the overburden to get down to the paydirt. He hit a layer of rounded river gravel and used the pan to see if that was the top of the pay layer. All he's looking for in the pan is a few colors which will tell him to start hauling that dirt to the washplant Parker is washing the entire paylayer, so looking for the hotspots with a metal detector is a waste of time, since all of that dirt is going to be sluiced anyway.
