Humm let me think😳😱 maybe because their little brat of a ruler didn't give a damn about people of other countries. She just wanted GOLD. SMDH and what does quantum physics have to do with anything in this story. It's stolen art. What do u expect out of it, to ring when they get it close to an Azteca. Get out. If U wanted to sound smart, U missed. Good luck with UR quantum physics though.😏
Clearly this was a mental health issue. Id say this to me, is proof the fact, that if you seek long enough for clues to confirm your obsession, you'll sure find them. Those are to me false forcifiers, that only adds, to confirm the validity of the insane persons obsession or quest to find proof of something obscure that in reality only exists in his head. By coincidence he finds a mountain range that resembles his map. By coincidence at the foot of this mountain there is an ancient grave yard. By coincidence he hit his head 😂
its the same with the story of moses some village idiot called moshe wandered off one day, climbed a mountain and fell off it, smacking his head after that he heard the voice of god from a burning bush billions believe this story and call him a prophet, I would call him an ambulance

Montezuma was not killed by the Spanish, he was stoned to death by his own people. He was eventually taken hostage by the Spanish soldiers, after Cortez had left with a few men to go back to the seaside camp for some reason and when he got back he found out all hell had broken loose. The soldiers ended up being imprisoned inside the palace they had been allowed to stay in, when they took Montezuma. When Cortez got back it was hard for him to get back in, but he eventually did and that's when he found out what happened. the Aztecs were starving them out, and had filled the kings place with his brother. Cortez sent Montezuma out to his people thinking they would pay attention to him. He tried to calm then down, but he had been replaced because he was seen as weak and his own people stoned him to death. The Spanish then made a run for it at night with makeshift bridges of planks of wood to cross the causeways that the Aztecs had broken. but they didn't get far because they were greedy and had tried to take all the treasure with them. the special ops aztec warriors killed nearly all of them, but a few including Cortez , survived and sailed back to Spain. He did of course go back with an armada a few years later, by which time the Aztecs had been nearly wiped out by the smallpox the first Spanish had brought in. This treasure hiding must have happened during the time in between the first discovery of the Aztecs and the second return of Cortez. It certainly was not under the command of Montezuma but his brother. You guys need to watch your history better. Someone else commenting here, it was his nephew. my history program said brother, but it doesn't matter.
Past centuries of history were written by the conqueror with no regards to the history of those conquered, is not the true factual history. For all we know, the greedy conquering Spanish might have made greedy conjecture into facts with no real evidence to back it up, just the greed of seeing the gold the Aztecs had displayed with thinking if the Aztecs display this much gold, then they must have enormous amounts of gold hidden away somewhere! I doubt there ever was a treasure, just greedy conjecture erroneously thought of and written as facts. The only proven facts to Montezuma's Treasure STORY is it has morphed into a story that is different from the original Spanish Treasure Seeking Story. Go figure !
if they drain the lake they'll find a tunnel that leads (eventually) to collapsed tunnnels on Oak Island. I'm sure of it - and I'm also strangely unshaven.
I love historical documentaries, I love documentaries of all types, and I'm grateful to the ppl of youtube for posting so many. But I do question some of them and their historical accuracy sometimes, never the less they are fun and interesting. But this is more folklore, I mean really? Some guy gets hit in the head and sees things is basis for a documentary?... Well. At least it's not saying Lincon was black... Or a woman!
@@lewiskinser8320 I mean you're not wrong. For me it's all of the interpretations that think that it (assuming it took place) in Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Utah...
When I was a kid this story was that the gold was melted down by Cortez and taken back to Spain. BTW the route taken north shows crossing the Rio Grande and heading north in land with very little water. Not possible at all. They would have followed the river north. You need to get out and see this country and you would understand.
Ten years ago I would of said that Freddy might be telling the truth or he might be telling a lie? He truly believed that the Aztec treasure was buried somewhere in Utah based on a spiritual vision given to him by an Aztec warrior. He was so sure that he would find the treasure in Utah based on the clues given to him in the vision. His story, is a sad story and reminds me of a certain individual that was told he could win a big jack pot if would go to a specific casino and play a certain type of machine that was ready hit. Later he finds out that he is playing the wrong machine. After playing the right machine, that's about to hit, he loses all his money and goes home broke believing that he was very close to hitting the jackpot. Freddy, on the way home, wanders what went wrong with his vision and believes that someone is going to hit the jackpot one day because the vision was very real to him. If I had a vision like Freddy, I would of been sold on it just like Freddy, but I'm not a Freddy and I'm more like a family man first then a little bit like Freddy. So the question in my mind was? Is he for real? Or lying? It is possibly that he wasn't lying. But now I'm sure! I'm sure that he wasn't lying! How do I know this? I'll explain if there is enough of you who like what I say and believe in Freddy! Let's see the show of support for Freddy. Those who don't believe can sit back an learn about Freddy.
I find it hard to believe the Aztecs passed Big Bend, and into NM, CO and passed so much beauty where they could have stopped settled and hid the treasure to get to south Utah when they didn’t even know was ahead
Prescott claims the treasure was lost on the Noche Triste into the lake. It saved Cortez because instead of perusing Cortez the Aztecs stayed to collect the treasure for themselves.
Good documentary. 1 question what about the bones found that were older than the treasure. And man good show but all the ads seems like every 2 minutes is annoying as he'll. You get all into the video an ad pops up kills your Concentration and as soon as you start getting back another AD pops out Literally every 2 to 3 minutes
They're so focused on gold that they didn't think finding those people was amazing?! Oh, they're 2000years too early boo. What if the Aztec have a different idea what treasure is? What if the bones of those people are the treasure? What if the snail is the treasure? Or the lake? Or the land itself? They are so focused on what they 🤔 think it is they're missing out on everything else
I'm totally with you on that, Carolyn! To me the people themselves are the treasure. They are always portrayed as warlike, but at first they were not. Imagine how beautiful their culture might have been! But we will never know any of the indigenous cultures of the Americas, because they were mostly overwhelmed, so mostly died out. What was left got perverted by Christianity. I'm stunned by the tragedy of what occurred throughout both Americas. ❤
Adobe historians believe it was their most important history customs and knowledge not gold itself. It makes sence in a way if your house is about to b destroyed u don't grab your TV n couches u go 4 passports family pictures etc etc.
Ummm are U both bat sh¿ฯ crazy? WE were just as savage as the Spanish, the English, the French and every other culture out there. For fu€k$ sake, the Aztecs cut the beating hart out of people, my people took U as a slave And if U weren't a good little boy or girl, well UR throat was cut and discarded like old bones. None of the people of North America were saints, so please stop acting like we were. U know nothing about us and UR defiantly not our saviors. SMDH😏
Yeah, you need reenactors at the sites….with projector screens illuminating the area with late-nite visitors selling souvenirs and meta reenactors living on the walls
wow i had no idea people DIDNT understand what a dreaming nightmares is it in the 1800 .. -.- want a tip what it is? it is meant when you dream about stuff that makes no sense, like your bed is a ship hangar that has planes on them and you must defend your self against the enemy ship.. yup it has happened me a lot
Why? Why do we do this? Cortez needed to defeat the Aztec so the fat king would give them a place to have a port. Sorry but the Aztec didn't didn't value gold very much. Cortez killed matazuma, which destabilized the aztecs. Anyone honestly think apache, Navaho, Comanche or any of the other tribes in this area just let the aztecs walk in there area?
And technically u are wrong. Cortez didn't kill him, the Aztecs killed him by stoning him to death for the fact that he allowed the Spaniards to come n go all thru Tenochtitlan. So wat the fuck are u talking bout??? 😂😂😂😂😂😂
It's now been proven that Cortez didn't kill Moctezuma. What actually happened was that the Aztec population grew rather impatient with Moctezuma's indulgence of the Spaniards, and killed him. But, what actually killed most of the Aztecs was Chickenpox; which the Spaniards had brought with them from Europe. When you think about it for a second, the truth actually makes way more sense than the racist tales of 50 Spaniards wiping out 1000s of Aztec warriors, after Cortez had burnt the Aztec emperor's feet off.
The guy that thinks the gold snails were purposefully placed in the lake by Aztecs to prevent exploration is just ridiculous. There is absolutely 0 chance that the Aztecs would have known that present day man would consider the snails too endangered to harm.
I wonder is this town anywhere near blind frog Ranch if you heard about Dwayne Dellinger I think his name is who is looking for this treasure boy is he in for a surprise if he is looking😊
Well, I watch a lot of shows on ancient American dwellings & art so I’ll be watching for that petroglyph. And I’ve spent time in that particular area. 😁
@@cattymajivno the Mormons did seem to have vast amounts of wealth all a sudden , look how fast they put up massive buildings in Salt Lake City it shouldn’t have been possible
Sattelites ground penetrating radar could help locate the Aztec haul. If it's there, it'll be found. If it's haunted, then you'll need an Exorcist Catholic Priest to clean out the area before the area is worked.
What "lost treasure"? The Spaniards got it all. There is NO evidence it "vanished without a trace". It was melted down and sent to Spain. Really very simple.
It is commonly believed that when gold was first discovered, 500 men guarded it with their lives. As usual, the wealth was seized and hidden by the affluent to maintain their riches, and those who knew about the gold were eliminated.
It vanished with very little trace after the United States Army removed a horde of ancient Aztec gold, silver & bronze alloy. I've held one. This was a ranch in New Mexico. There are probably lots of undiscovered hordes that start as far north as the southern Rocky mountains all the way down to the overgrown parts along the Amazon river.
I am hearing a cover up. Indiana has Ancient sites that are much like Aztec. They found an Aztec death whistle. I know the Smithsonian lost 14 crates of these ancient artifacts relics.
Why on earth would montezuma take the gold all that way to hide it ? It's way out of his area of influence. If he did hide it, he'd have taken it somewhere much closer. After all, it's not easy to move tons of gold and jewels, so why move it thousands of miles. Answer, you don't. Looks like Freddie was mad after all.
If treasure was missing, what's more likely? Aztecs moved an unbelievably heavy mass of treasure a couple thousand miles, or Cortez lied about the lost treasure and trued smuggle it back and it was lost at sea?
Do all American documentary makers go to the same school? Constant dramatic music, jerking the camera around, banging drums all over the place, jump cuts, needless repetion, flash flash flash... I don't see how they could make it any harder to watch if they tried. TV in the States is a stressful experience.
The American Southwest has attracted guys like Freddy for the 150 years or maybe longer all ways a lost treasure or mine. The stories are in damn near every town and too many to count
The Astez (Mechicans) are actually from that region , they came south into now Mexico area and conquered those people and they brought back their last treasure Home.
The Spanish conquest of the Aztecs could hardly be classified as occurring in the ‘Middle Ages’. The 16ᴛʜ century is set squarely within what is now referred to as the ‘Early Modern Era’. When I saw this title, I assumed it’d be covering something along the lines of the execrable King John Lackland’s loss of the Crown Jewels in the ‘Wash’ estuary, or perhaps some sort of treasure related to the Crusades, but not the Spanish pilfering of Aztec gold.🫤
The Opening Scenes of the first Indiana Jones movie depicts this event. Aztlan was definitely in that area, the main part of it was to the east. The University of Southern Utah has done extensive work in that area, much of it prior to the construction of Lake Powell. They were very much aware of the fact that there was a huge Native American presence who were forced to migrate South into the Valley of the Sun where they became mercenaries for the Olmec's. They ultimately conquered the peace loving Olmec's and that was the birth of the Aztec Nation.
Sorry but your talking about the Mexica (me-shi-ca) the descendants of the Aztec people 100s of years before them Cortez conquered the Mexica not the Aztec but nice video
More than likely the spanish got it already, its probably in the san jose at the bottom of the ocean...

The treasure fell into the lake during La Noche Triste. It saved the conquistadors fleeing the city due to the Indians stopping to collect the loot. Where it went after that is anyone’s guess.
So they found multiple historical sites and they only care about the gold. I'm more interested in the site where they found the bodies that predate the Aztecs by 3000 years. What's up with that place.

@@cattymajivno the Mormons did seem to have vast amounts of wealth all a sudden , look how fast they put up massive buildings in Salt Lake City it shouldn’t have been possible
Sattelites ground penetrating radar could help locate the Aztec haul. If it's there, it'll be found.
If it's haunted, then you'll need an Exorcist Catholic Priest to clean out the area before the area is worked.
They claim aztecs stole their own gold 😂
that golf belongs the Carlos 5th
You may not have found THAT treasure,but you did indeed find A treasure
I don't know about Montezuma's curse, but his revenge is very real.😂
Does anybody know if a rumored buried treasure has ever been found anywhere ?
Where is this lake located
I’m glad that the greedy pigs never got the gold.
🖤♥️💛💚
What "lost treasure"? The Spaniards got it all. There is NO evidence it "vanished without a trace". It was melted down and sent to Spain. Really very simple.
No doubt. The primary mission was gold and riches, the conquest came as a needed byproduct to provide labor for the mines.
It is commonly believed that when gold was first discovered, 500 men guarded it with their lives. As usual, the wealth was seized and hidden by the affluent to maintain their riches, and those who knew about the gold were eliminated.
It vanished with very little trace after the United States Army removed a horde of ancient Aztec gold, silver & bronze alloy. I've held one. This was a ranch in New Mexico. There are probably lots of undiscovered hordes that start as far north as the southern Rocky mountains all the way down to the overgrown parts along the Amazon river.

I am hearing a cover up. Indiana has Ancient sites that are much like Aztec. They found an Aztec death whistle. I know the Smithsonian lost 14 crates of these ancient artifacts relics.
town is now called Kanab, ive driven thru it on US 89
Why on earth would montezuma take the gold all that way to hide it ?
It's way out of his area of influence.
If he did hide it, he'd have taken it somewhere much closer.
After all, it's not easy to move tons of gold and jewels, so why move it thousands of miles.
Answer, you don't.
Looks like Freddie was mad after all.
If you can differentiate between fact's and entertainment, enjoy.
If treasure was missing, what's more likely? Aztecs moved an unbelievably heavy mass of treasure a couple thousand miles, or Cortez lied about the lost treasure and trued smuggle it back and it was lost at sea?
Blind Frog Ranch... Is that far away...?
What kind of prospector rides a bike?
And all they got was Montezumas revenge😵💫
Do all American documentary makers go to the same school? Constant dramatic music, jerking the camera around, banging drums all over the place, jump cuts, needless repetion, flash flash flash... I don't see how they could make it any harder to watch if they tried. TV in the States is a stressful experience.
there's a reason they're all called "programs"
The American Southwest has attracted guys like Freddy for the 150 years or maybe longer all ways a lost treasure or mine. The stories are in damn near every town and too many to count
The Astez (Mechicans) are actually from that region , they came south into now Mexico area and conquered those people and they brought back their last treasure Home.
The Spanish conquest of the Aztecs could hardly be classified as occurring in the ‘Middle Ages’. The 16ᴛʜ century is set squarely within what is now referred to as the ‘Early Modern Era’. When I saw this title, I assumed it’d be covering something along the lines of the execrable King John Lackland’s loss of the Crown Jewels in the ‘Wash’ estuary, or perhaps some sort of treasure related to the Crusades, but not the Spanish pilfering of Aztec gold.🫤
Everything I read said the Spanish divided it up, tried to leave with it and most of it was recovered by the Aztecs during their attempt to leave
Oh come on! They somehow knew WAY back in their day that a SNAIL would stop people???
treasures never given back
Strange... I was taught that Montezuma was strained and before that filled a chamber full with gold for the Spaniards
They deff put spells to protect these kinds of places
If there is that much gold in there i think i will hire Indiana Jones, he can have a nice cut😁
Great story but I'm not convinced, it going to take a bit more for me to believe in ancient ghosts , maybe I'm just a none believer.
The Opening Scenes of the first Indiana Jones movie depicts this event. Aztlan was definitely in that area, the main part of it was to the east. The University of Southern Utah has done extensive work in that area, much of it prior to the construction of Lake Powell. They were very much aware of the fact that there was a huge Native American presence who were forced to migrate South into the Valley of the Sun where they became mercenaries for the Olmec's. They ultimately conquered the peace loving Olmec's and that was the birth of the Aztec Nation.
I really can't watch this , im wanting that gold more than those before .
I wonder if I am related to these people as I am also a Judd
I was kinda into it until the "Golden Snail" theory.... 43:55 then it just got stupid
Moctezuma is the dudes name.
What if there's no treasure? So they tortured and killed the innocent man?
Sorry, the side kickstand you show on his bicycle was not invented until 1926. History counts.
The entire bike is contemporary right down at the vinyl tires not to mention that the old guys London fog raincoat. Geez. Low budget film or what?
Sorry but your talking about the Mexica (me-shi-ca) the descendants of the Aztec people 100s of years before them Cortez conquered the Mexica not the Aztec but nice video
The very wiseman once said: "Gold is the devil relics."
I know where it is this treasure
I think the treasure was all dumped in the lake
Freddy must have been smoking mushrooms that day
More than likely the spanish got it already, its probably in the san jose at the bottom of the ocean...
The treasure fell into the lake during La Noche Triste. It saved the conquistadors fleeing the city due to the Indians stopping to collect the loot. Where it went after that is anyone’s guess.
Thanks for the laugh, what a bunch of clowns.
Like that Simpson ep
So they found multiple historical sites and they only care about the gold. I'm more interested in the site where they found the bodies that predate the Aztecs by 3000 years. What's up with that place.
I mean this whole video made my night. Comedy gold.
