The Crazy Things People Keep
Mary spoke about her time on the show in several interviews. “The stuff we’ve found in storage lockers is crazy,” she said. “It’s crazy what people keep and what’s important to them. That’s the most interesting thing to me. Like this one lady had a shelf that she had built, and it had all these urns of all her pets and her ex-husbands.”
One of the most unusual things Mary discovered was a ceramic grenade from the Byzantine Empire. “I found out that when they would throw the grenade, it would break and cause a fire. You couldn’t put out the fire with water. Nothing would make the fire go out… and so to this day, they still haven’t been able to replicate whatever the substance is they used inside there.”
