I had the pleasure of spending an afternoon with both the guys from Diggers, they're a couple of good dudes. Remember everything you see on TV is produced (usually over produced), so how they come off on the show is like a caffeinated version of the real people. If they find a meteorite they're more likely to toss it aside as "just a rock" than claim it to be extra terrestrial; I seem to recall from our conversations that neither of them had ever seen a meteorite prior to attending the Minelab National Metal Detecting Day event this year. I don't expect we'll see any GM pallasites tonight.
