Discovery Channel's Mike Rowe went to the field with Utah Geological Survey paleontologists to film an episode of "Dirty Jobs" for later broadcast. There are four 'sneak peek' video clips from the day digging for dinosaurs, posted online.
That's Utah's State Paleontologist Jim Kirkland in the blue jacket in the clip above.

You know, I'm actually sort of surprised that Dirty Jobs didn't cover paleontologists sooner. Digging up fossils is an extremely dirty job.
