    The concrete in the garden shaft is a exact match for the same sample they recently found on lot 5. I believe the iron or metal plate the Chapel party drilled in to could have been a iron strong box or "treasure chest" possibly more than a piece of sheet metal,imo. But who knows? Thanks for the videos.

    I’m really starting to doubt if the treasure is/was in the Money Pit area. Your videos make me think the actual vault is somewhere else on the island. If this is the case, maybe they will find more intact underground workings, if not the treasure itself. The Money Pit area has just been so devastated by Dunfield’s excavation in the 1960s. I still find the show, Olivier’s, & your findings very interesting! I really hope that what really went on there is uncovered. (Sorry for the pun)

      I didn't realize that Dunnfield dig hole was only about 20 ft wide once it got down to depth, and really wasn't that deep. I think it was 2 weeks ago but rick talked about it on the show. The way he talked about it painted a different picture of that than what was in my head. If I can find it I'll post so you can check it out

      They actually found a space where there is gold and silver underground. They did water testing (by a Dr in hydro archaeology) and its been very precisely done so there is something in the money pitt area (they said a dump truck worth of silver, and a lot of gold). They will find it soon I'm sure, but the government keeps putting restrictions on them plus it costs millions to do all this properly. They think it's close to the garden shaft, which they told them to stop working on, and you're right, it's not where they think the money pitt was. Can't wait for them to find whatever it is, but now that people have been drilling for 200 years they might have broken water tight seals and ruined any non precious metal stuff.

    Interesting the flood tunnel is 98-105’ and the tunnels they found this year going to the garden shaft line up with the same depth and the direction lines up with the south cove flood tunnel

    I seriously think that the weird metal detector guy is planting objects he has found over his previous travels that are relative to a theory in relations to the knights templar an Portuguese sailor's. I think he's giving them a run for their money . I think it's just a bunch of tunnels created by sailor's mining clay.

  • @oakislandresearch

    A brilliant video, Michael.
    I think we're moving to a second theory after the "Vault Theory", which is the "Plug Theory".
    I had a lots of thoughts about it, and I am more and more convinced it is a PLUG, not a treasure chamber. The concrete is a definite suspect: Why re-inforce with concrete at this point.....? I'll call you soon and we can talk more about it.
    My biggest problem at the moment: How did they know about the undergroud pre-existing cave and natural duct system making the whole construction a bit easier on the effort side. I don't think they dug EVERYTHING (concerning the water system) , they probably used already existing natural cavities....but how did they know these existed at 170 feet down, is my next brainstorm....
    Tons of care and positive thoughts, Michael.

      Thank you Olivier, Just South of Oak Island on the coast are some natural caves created naturally. Today it is a tourist attraction, back then perhaps a school of geology for would be tunnelers. Look forward to our discussion. Always look ahead.

      I bet it's because this island has been used since the 1300's for various Night Templar stuff and as their name changed and time went on, so did the history of the island and its secrets underground. It would also explain the 2 distinct time periods found when testing stuff (1400's & early 1700's) plus the different artefacts found for both periods. You would find out a lot about the island after 300 years. And if the swamp was man made, and it was open to ships prior to that, it could be they found a cave system starting from there and that why they dammed up that place, filled it in and it became a swamp. Makes some sense, but I'm sure we'll find out if the government don't keep stopping them from exploring.... cheers.

    Makes total sense but for this to be the answer, the Cremona Document would have to be true. Only time will tell. Thanks for all your hard work.

    • @DOTtoDOT
      @DOTtoDOT  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, I agree, Bill Jackson spent most of his time following the clues on Hunter Mt. I find it interesting at the end of his life he chose to hide the documents pertaining to Oak island. The connection may be revealed apon discovery.

    Beginning to look like this wall all waterworks to manage the harbor - which was probably one of the few natural easy to access harbors in centuries past. AND also looks like maybe someone took advantage of the the system to hide a treasure in a system that subsequently became flooded and made the treasure inaccessible.

    The area where you have put the dot for Vault Entrance G seems to already be cleared of trees, as opposed to the areas full of foliage all around it. Do you know why that is? Have they worked on this spot in the past? Who cleared this spot? Was it the Laginas or previous searchers who did this? Sorry if you've answered this question before. Thanks.

    • @DOTtoDOT
      @DOTtoDOT  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Its used as a mulching area for land clearing.

    Also if you were to hide your gold in a spot you can’t get back to is counterintuitive lack of a better word right? Then they would probably dig holes at the money pit was to get to the clay

    • @DOTtoDOT
      @DOTtoDOT  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      If there is something hidden on Oak Island it is not at the Money Pit location. Money Pit is just a service shaft.

  • @stuartgraca

    I find your reasoning good. I have only seen youtube videos of the program and it is very confusing as well as non practical. The flood tunnels are a puzzle because they are so long and need to hold water continually , so there is the problem of digging small shaft sizes and removal of debris plus the need for them to be below sea level. I am also surprised at the wasteful approach with resources that the present search is showing , it seems that the less resources the more thought us given to why and how the tunnels are formed and thus indicating where to dig. The island itself is so close to the main land I wonder why it was chosen, including the fact that the sea level might have been 2 meters lower in 1400 , so irs relationship to the main land and the tunnel systems , would be different. For some one wishing to hide treasure just for their own use , it is worth considering the average age was abbot 45 years, so why all this effort, it would be better to leave a group on the island to guard a simple buried treasure. I think this was the case for James Anderson. Thank you for the detailed drawings they explain a lot more about the construction.

    Ok.. major question; how would anyone dig a 119 ft without scuba gear? The water table starts before 60ft so how did they dig a hole underwater back in those times? It’s impossible but the swamp is where I would focus on. It’s man made and for what or why? To hide something….

    Ocean levels were lower.. it was probably a cave or burial with a side entrance not a top down

    Is there any chance that the 7 feet of cement is a mistake? 7 feet of cement seems odd.

    • @DOTtoDOT

      Yes, I thought that too, but I just go with what is in the text.

    • @DOTtoDOT

      Actually when I review the account a specific range of depth was given 154-161 feet.

    you can cement off smiths tunnel and the floor tunnel at 171 ft.. drying out the whole area.. i could do that in a day

    Le " Money Pitt " servais à cacher la pierre de 90, pour ceux qui n'ont pas compris les indices: les ouvres de Poussin, les tableau de chevaliers en combat, les indices Zenna, etc ... la Pierre de 90 place La Croix de Nolan en position sur le plan d OK, et le secret devient localisable dans le coin sud est du marais. Mais je crois qu'ils y ont trouvés quelque choses déjà. Faudrais savoir pour donner un sens à cette aventure.

    Dig where map says vault under earth I would have went there 1st there still looking where the oak enter here maybe that's the island laiden with oak and that's where they entered the island from ship

  • @johnnyllooddte3415
    @johnnyllooddte3415 ปีที่แล้ว

    it also seems obvious tht to build a flood tunnel trap.. one of 2 things must be done.. if has to be dug FROM the burial hole to water .. or it has to be dug from shore level inland and then down to a burial spot... and then the burial hole is dug to the surface.. and then backtracking and filling in the flood tunnel to shore,, and then digging that to water a few more feet.. thats the only 2 ways it can be done.. adding a dam in the area would cause the water level to rise even underground over time

  • @williamfowler616
    @williamfowler616 ปีที่แล้ว

    after all this time they could have drilled out the whole area where the "treasure" is supposed to be located and walked down to it

  • @backwoodscrazyfrachiseurbo726
    @backwoodscrazyfrachiseurbo726 ปีที่แล้ว

    The Zena map points to la vault on opposite side of swamp and lidar on one show showed gold it might have been magnetometer they said there might have been a gold mining operation same spot y'all didn't check it🤔 it was an old season

  • @anotherone1001
    @anotherone1001 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Wouldn't lidar have detected the vault ?

    • @DOTtoDOT
      @DOTtoDOT  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No, it is deeper than LIDAR capabilities.

  • @johnnyllooddte3415
    @johnnyllooddte3415 ปีที่แล้ว

    no one ever mentions how high the land is above sea level.. no one ever mentions how far below sea level the treasure are expected to be.. these are important numbers..
    no one ever has thought how the system was originally built.. this is the clue to how to reverse engineer it..
    we can assume there was several phases to these burials since 1098 .. from originally just digging a 20 foot hole.. to later developments of filling in the gap between the 2 islands and causing a swamp..it s apparent that many trips over a millennium were made to the island and different treasures both buried and dug up over time..
    im going to assume some group or groups surreptitiously removed any treasures from the money pit over the last 200 years..
    the only way to be sure it to find the right hole.. the only way to find the right hole is to find a flood tunnel and follow it into the hole

    • @DOTtoDOT
      @DOTtoDOT  ปีที่แล้ว

      Agreed, everything is a guess until two entrances are found. My last video explains where we think they may be located according to Zena's map. th-cam.com/video/Te61pXeTyT0/w-d-xo.html

    i wouldn't be surprised if they called it the money pit but used it for sewage.
    They'll be rolling on their grave laughing when someone spends millions looking for gold in it. 🤣
