~ If he knows one song, it is “Oh Susanna,” which involved “going to California with a banjo my knee,” ~
As a native Californian, who lives in the Gold Rush Foothills, I would observe that for authenticity, Prospectors would likely use the more formal "Califor-nee".
My Grandfather, father of ten, and who passed in the late 1940s, was an actual miner in the Gold Country . His parents emigrated from Cornwall. By the time he started mining in the early 1900s, he was a mining employee, not a prospector.
My father was child #9, and my uncle was #10. My uncle's ranch in the same area had three tiny gold mines that we were told to STAY OUT of. For an 8 year old kids, it was a grand adventure to explore them!
And - I chewed tons of Gold Nugget Bubble Gum growing up. It was in every store around us here in NorCal.
Once again, AI shits the bed with fingers. Unless ol' Prospector James actually does have six fingers on that pickax. I'm surprised that his faithful pack mule doesn't have more than 4 legs, although that is one weird looking animal.
I'm fumble-fingered enough w/five digits on my hand, let alone six. People say that stuff like this is AI growing pains that eventually AI will be able to create even more realistic pics. I wonder if this isn't all part of AI's diabolical plan to create super beings w/six or seven fingers. AI's just getting us used to the idea.
Reminds me of the unused opening scene from Tremors. OP and his mule, which gets eaten by a Grabboid. He's found stuck up an electric tower staying off the ground.

Heck, I'm not even sure about the belt buckle.
This was amazing! Well done.
A hole in one
GPs were not barefoot; they wore boots. That's all I have to say.
I'd rather watch GEICO Cavemen...🙄
