7 Days Surviving the 1849 Gold Rush ⛏️💀

Ajouté : 2026-06-01

[00:00:00]You came for the gold, you'll stay for the cholera. In 1849, an egg costs $50 and people are dying every day. Here's how you survive 7 days in the California gold rush. Day one, your hotel is a canvas tent on a pile of garbage. You spend your last dollar on a shovel. Day two, you're drinking muddy water from a mule's footprint because the rivers are poisoned. Day four, your hands split open in freezing Sierra streams. Dinner?

[00:00:28]Maggot-filled salt pork. Day six, the fever hits. Not gold fever, cholera. You found two tiny flakes, not enough to buy clean water. Stay for day eight or leave California alive?
