This young man from Arkansas, USA, became famous on March 11, 2017, when he was 14 years old when he discovered a valuable diamond. Almost a million dollars Crater of Diamonds State Park is located in the small town of Murfreesboro in his home state.

While walking through the state park, Kalel accidentally found a 7.44-carat brown diamond in a stream, the largest diamond recorded in the park since 1978. “We were only in the park for 30 minutes and he found it. The color was so dark, we didn’t know it was a diamond, but we knew we had to check it out,” explained Kalel’s father, Craig Langford, speaking on the park’s official website.
