Watching you describe the meanings of your clues is like reading an A* A Level English essay where the student is clearly reaching so far into the implications and connotations of words they might as well be on acid lmaoooo. Cannot imagine the intellect of the gang who cracked the code, so impressive, and very happy for them.
exactly solving this goldfosh one right now is very much like that. everything is within plausible deniability until you go full tinfoil hat mode to prove something related to it
that's the second one. Max made a deal with Laurence Fox so that he would take a second briefcase to Scotland for a future treasure hunt. That's why he was there when he was supposed to be debating Max.

@@conradkeller9294 From the photos on twitter and on the discord, the money was absolutely in the briefcase. It was apparently pretty deep into the bush and was covered in camo tape so it was pretty hidden.

wow, this is why my dad always used to say... "check the long grass, there could be a briefcase full of money hidden due to some dude making a youtube video" it never made sense, but now i am enlightened :) but seriously tho, this seems more likely than ME getting those clues haha. well done to ALL involved and to Max for putting on a wicked show for us all
Am I the only one who thinks these clues are ridiculously hard, feels like the sort of thing you would only understand makes sense if your the one making it
I'm sorry but we have to talk about all the random ideas we all had, like the grit bin lead, or how we had 20 people in a discord vc, all researching different words for "starter", and that one time when we all watched a man walk to a handbag shop which was called "MF HANDBAGS", just because it had the same initials as Max. The treasure hunt has been great and I've met a bunch of amazing people.
I’m so glad I didn’t try to figure this out because after seeing the reveal I can safely say these clues would’ve drove me insane and I’d still be on clue 1 today. 😂
That was totally mystifying but such fun. I was a bit sceptical but now I'm full of admiration for young Sam,and his brainy mates,for working it all out. Bet The Times crossword doesn't delay them long. Its been great fun.
Massive congrats to my fellow Sam, that is an insane (but well thought-out) set of clues, I think solving it alone is worth the 10k nevermind making it there first 😂
Did you decide on the exact location first? Or, if not, how ever many what3words combos did you have to go through, before you found one which was for a suitable public-accessible hiding-place and was so amenable to cluing? It impressed me that you managed to find 3 "red herring" locations in a straight line, one Gt. Yarmouth which has a red herring connection as you point out, and Motherwell and Darlington which fitted your "maximum" and "lentil" clues so well.
so gutted. I was in the discord with these guys but I've had so much on I didn't have any time to contribute enough to it so I got kicked a few days after the 3rd clue. fair play though I would have done the same. these guys were the real ones, very dedicated and it paid off! congrats boys!
seeing all the salty people in the comments saying the clues had "no logic in them" is a right laugh. well done to Sam and Co. for finding it, and thanks to Max (+ of course mystery man) for making such a compelling series
I wonder what would've happened if someone just took the briefcase. You needed to phone max to get the code right, but you could also probably brute force it (both in terms of trying every combination and breaking the case) and then you get the money
Wow fair play to those who worked it out. Parts seemed a little tenuous tho. Was there a way of working out what order the 3 words should have been in? If not 9 locations would have been tough (unless most were in fact outside of the UK)
I know this has been almost a year ago, but indeed the other locations are outside the UK. At least the 3 or 4 that I tried while going along with the video before hitting the right order.
I’m one year late, but when there were three clues with answers being one word each, I knew you were going to say what3words! What3words isn’t pretty well known where I live, so… And the intro too.
This has to become something you do on your channel every year. It's like the Halloween Heist of this channel, only it is not on Halloween and not a Heist
Dear max, I was certain I was going to find the briefcase so much so I recorded it! If you want another video, I think a conspiracy video would be a great idea to see if people were in the same thought pattern
For more silly antics, come see me on tour! Get your tickets here: maxfosh.co

same I literally live In Chedworth 5 minutes away from it
Actually I'd like to see video wrap up of all the wrong ways that people solved the clues and what was the furthest anyone travelled for nothing

me watching this: ah yes, these clues are so obvious
me when the first clue came out: the money’s in a grit bin
I am physically quaking at the level of intellect that this must have required. Not for the likes of me.
Honestly. A lot of the clues were solved on the discord.
I dunno, a lot of these kinds of puzzles seem to boil down to 'guess what the quizmaster was thinking', maybe I'm just too dumb though
Or me lol

Reviewing this video now to see if the general format of how the hints work together can help in finding a particular fish.
Same 😂
I can relate
Listening to these explanations…I feel dumb because it still seems so extremely complicated and I would have got none of the clues 😂
Yoo this series was insane!!!

Max: put timer on phone... timer goes off.. "oh someones calling me" i love u man and these videos!
imagine the bloke who found it just said he's spend it all on ket or some shit
If Alex Horne ever needs to step back from Taskmaster, I think we’ve found his replacement
"so that is simply how you found the £10,000" no that wasn't simple at all
9:36 nah, no, actually six, but fine Max, you studied English lit after all xD
I thought the same thing
That was totally mystifying but such fun. I was a bit sceptical but now I'm full of admiration for young Sam,and his brainy mates,for working it all out. Bet The Times crossword doesn't delay them long. Its been great fun.
Damn that was quick
If this is how complex the solution was for his previous treasure hunt I stand no chance to solve the goldfosh!
What if its in the same spot as a throwback
Watching this video again to solve the great Goldfosh riddle of 2022
when i clicked on this video i thought it was the answer to that riddle, but then looked at the date. now i'll rewatch the other video so it may help
Massive congrats to my fellow Sam, that is an insane (but well thought-out) set of clues, I think solving it alone is worth the 10k nevermind making it there first 😂
Someone’s been watching the crossword episode of inside no 9.
As someone living in Gloucester this is quite annoying
Really loved this challenge! Was really fun especially the Reddit and the discord !
As soon as he said those 3 words I knew it would be what 3 words. This was a VERY cleaver treasure hunt and the clues were amazing.
Ah, good. This confirms there's no way in hell I would have had the patience to see this through.

The best part about this video is that we are now ready for a NEW Max Fosh series to start. Can we get a hype in the chat
gg, kinda salty that the extra clue for clue 2 wasn't on TH-cam... no idea that existed
There is so little logic in these clues
To figure this out by yourself... hats off to Sam & co

Despite that, wonderful video! The guys are insane

Me: Ah yes, clearly
well done, I am not envious...

Clues were a bit meh and vague, but fair play to guy that solved it
If you made them clear and obvious then it wouldn't be a treasure hunt and more a who can drive there the quickest

Probably had no money in it and only the phone number to call max to get the ten thousand.
