In the video, a large metal scoop is being used to dig through a pile of mud. The scoop is being pushed down into the mud, causing it to break apart and reveal the dirt underneath. The scoop is then lifted up, and the mud is seen dripping off of it. The scoop is then pushed down again, and the process is repeated several times. The scoop is a large, rectangular metal object with a flat surface and a handle on the side. The mud is dark brown and appears to be wet and sticky. The background is not visible, but the focus is on the scoop and the mud.
