ILOVE " OAK ISLAND " Also the History , What LUCK to be able to be involved in this awesome crusade . UNCOVERING the HUGE secrets, and or Story never mind treasure ,treasure to me is revealing the work of the past ,Obviously A HUGE undertaking of a task for the "ORIGINAL BURIAL " of SOMETHING OR SOMETHINGS OF SIGNIFIGANT " IMPORTANT S " SO Awesome .
I agree with you hundred percent, how to stretch out a whole bunch of useless info into a the show, I think it's getting obvious they're out of material For the series. 🙄❗️
Maybe if this show was on the discover channel they would "discover" something . History is what all their viewers about to be from the redundant nonsense
Still wondering why NO ONE has asked the question as to why the island has its name? The reason why it was called oak island is because of the NON NATIVE OAK TREES THAT WERE PLANTED THERE AS MARKERS and were also used to construct ships these are North African Oaks and are used specifically for ship building back in the day. The PHOENICIANS used it (also known as the purple people because of the purple wool reed wood, make up, clothing etc they were known to) passed their knowledgeable onto the Templars in this case it's not Follow the money it's Follow the tree source. The Mi Kmaq have Phoenician symbolism represented in the holy garb so point of interest, also the Vikings visited before the Templars who passed on their seafaring knowledge as well, biggest question is WHERE WERE THOSE AFRICAN TREES LOCATED ON THE ISLAND as they have been removed and were used as not only physical markers on land but also TOWERED ABOVE THE native oak trees tremendously and thus the NAME OAK ISLAND as you could plainly see it from Sea , I got lots more will share later.....
Although your post is entertaining it is a bunch of bunkum. For example African Oaks are tropical and would not survive Nova Scotia winters. Also keep in mind the forests you see today along the northeastern seaboard are not the same as those of the pre-contact and early contact period. The trees were much larger than today. The old growth forests are gone.
report trees are old! Oak island gets the milk maid of the century award! If you miss, oh say a season. you still only missed a few hours of new footage, and one show will catch you up and still get repetitive footage!
I agree with you. I hate it when the History Channel does that, but the Curse of Oak Island is not the only show that abuses their viewers. Ancient Aliens is another show that suffers from the same repeat overload. Why? Are they trying to hoard viewer shares... I don't know. However, sounds like this show was coming to an end until this latest discovery. Whether the Lagina's were running out of money, hope, or interest in the show remains the actual Oak Island Mystery.
@Kevin Jacobs Yes, I'm sure you are correct. Lagina's got to be running out of money by now! Drilling isn't cheap, and they have been drilling a long time. Of course, it is expensive to produce the show as well... so who knows.
@@357magchicken Of course, that's why it is still on the air. We continue to watch and then grumble about seeing repetitive scenes and information. LOL
Why all the naysayers? Perhaps you don't understand what the findings this week means. They found out that the structures discovered were built 25 years BEFORE the Money Pit was discovered. At the very least it means that someone created a large engineering project for some reason in 1771. That doesn't pique your interest? As the boys say, "This is huge".
@@eddiewillers1442 - Yes. People lived on many of the islands in Mahone Bay. If you ever visit there you will see they all have wharves. Transportation in those days was mostly by boat. Roads were few and very rough. So, yes even for islands just yards away. As a child I spent summers on one of the islands near Oak Island visiting with relatives. It had been inhabited for two hundred years. The old house and wharf although in ruins was still there.

Destroying the environment for some coins and old wood. This show is so very boring...hard to believe that it's still on. Missed 4 yrs...watched the other week. Same old WTF???
FlyIn Brian, despite all the archaeological discoveries? It’s an island of mud and clay, so what environment? Something of great importance obviously took place there. Nobody uses that level of engineering to hide a few treasure chests.
@@gavincurtis There have been no "archaeological discoveries" there. These guys are not archaeologists and they do not use archaeological techniques in their work. And, what "level of engineering" are you talking about? There is nothing large and or complex there. They have alluded to such but the finds have been common and ordinary. Settlement of that coastal area was fairly intense in the later part of the 1700s and people were building wharves, building ships, etc.
OK - FINALLY SOMETHING DEFINITIVE ! The wood dates back to the late 1700's. NOW, the Team needs to correlate WHO was in the Nova Scotia area during that era, with ships that would need a slipway. THAT era would eliminate 3 pirates : Capt. Kidd (died 1701), Blackbeard (died 1718), and Peter Easton (died 1620). The only pirate living & active in the late 1700's was Capt. James Anderson. As for links to the Knights Templar, and treasure from the Holy Land, this is pure speculation based on a few trinkets being found. They could have been carried by anyone, especially pirates.
Please forgive me for my ignorance but we always use old things. Maybe, somebody from the 1900s used old wood to make the structure? If the wood was already present on the Island from some past time, then why would anybody take the trouble of getting new wood delivered to the Island? For example, if i want to lay some steps and i already have some old bricks (bricks obtained from the old building in my garden( bricks made 100 years ago))i would most likely use the bricks i have at hand. Furthermore, correct me if i am wrong, there is no correlation between building something out of wood and the age of the wood. There are many variables to consider. The point is, wood ordered from the shops today may in fact be 50-60 years old. So wood ordered for the structures may have been older wood especially if it was from a reclamation yard. I am not saying that nothing spectacular exists on the Island, i am just a little curious about this find, that's all.
Of course the likely answer is that the structures were built by the local settlers who had been in the area since the 1750s. The locals were busy building an economy based on lumbering, fishing , farming, etc. They thus needed wharves for their boats/ships, and slipways were built for both building and repairing of ship. Prof Laroque's dating is for when the trees were cut and they would have been used within a matter of a few years or less. Certainly with all the activity in Nova Scotia in the 1760s and 1770s at Halifax and all the settlements along the coast, pirates certainly were not setting up any type of land based operations. British naval vessels were constantly sailing along the coast. Double bunkum regarding the Knights Templar - the structures were built hundreds of years to late.
You can not enjoy this show if you have interest in History,Data and Egineering this show is like learning history and a whole lot of things in pictures which is just beautiful for those who don't enjoy this show its on them there are lots of people who do.
Could it be, that the missing left socks date back to the times of the Knights Templar? Or could it be that they are hidden within untold riches of the dryer's venting ducks?
Why are they so interested in dates. I'd be more interested in what those structures in the swamp are. I find it more interesting than finding that none existed flood tunnel and the money plot. When they want to impress their sponsors they can always kill time by drilling some more holes in search of an imaginary flood tunnel!
High hopes but they have already discovered so many amazing things. Verified history in many ways. More than likely anything of great value would be given back to whomever it was taken from or some government agency. Either way im happy my relatives have helped.
That's great but what abt the cement wall, I mean even if it's searchers I'd still like to hear abt who, what, when & why. And the same goes for the wood(especially the big piece of oak outta H8/Money Pit?? I'm happy in a way but bummed on a small level. Keep up the dig, great work & good luck @TeamRick🤞🤞
If I had to stash the treasure and boobytrap it, id first make a landing and the box drains back to a point. The U and L are part of a whalf and cofferdam. Then dig an inclined shaft to meet the main shaft, air circulation would have been critical. But I'd not connect the flood system until I was about to leave. The angle of the incline shaft is probably steeper and comes up short of the box drains. Then a lateral tunnel dug to connect as the last action.
"We have made a drinking game with this show. Warning: you will consume large amounts of alcohol. Everytime the narrator says "Could it be" or any form thereof, everyone takes a shot. Many people will not be able to make it through one episode and benge watching may leave you comatose. Try it, it almost makes the narrator tolerable."
@BC Bob Actually Bob, nobody cares if you play along or not. So it was very unnecessary for you to post that you wouldn't play. That being said.... Sorry you find it so childish old man. You can stick to shuffle board with the others in your retirement home.
They had a hurricane go through that area last fall. I can't help wondering what damage it did to the island. It took a direct hit. Wonder about all the structures they excavaded. Did they bury them again?
No hurricanes hit Nova Scotia in the fall of 2018. In fact none in 2018 all all. Nova Scotia was hit by a few tropical storms but nothing of any consequence.
What is curious to me is why you don't consider Zina Hellper as a casualty of the money pit. That would fulfill the prophecy and she did work on it for years.
The reason it is taking so long is because they have to get the datathey can't just go out there and dig a hole and find the treasure they have to find out where to dig at and tell a story on the way I love history it is so awesome
Oak island team. Please! When you end this quest, list everyone from workers to film crew to experts that made it possible and what role they played in history. I am sure that this entire mystery will be solved and when it does it will change history.
I enjoy watching this show but most things they’ve found are easily explainable by known facts. It is known that the island was once used as a stop over and repair port for transatlantic sailing ships thus the slipways and structures in the cove. As well if you know how those old 17th, 18th and 19th century ships were ballasted...with rock/earth...whatever they could find where they were built(Europe). It’s not strange to find old European and even Roman ‘stuff’ that could have been in the material excavated and used as ballast. Not to mention things torn off of or thrown off on the ships during repairs.
Good idea. They tried scanning the island early in the show. But they only scanned parts of it and not the entire island itself. But even if they do that, they do that on Oak Island, which has screwed them over for the past 2 maybe 3 seasons.
Very difficult terrain to do GPR on. You need fairly open areas to effectively use the technology. Too much scrub and woods on the island. Also I suspect given the make up of the soil on the island the depth for GPR may not be much more than three to five feet.
Didn't Samuel ball go there poor and then died the richest man in the area? Yes. I think some one already got the treasure. The guy who was poor, then rich.
I think his "rich" status was a little exaggerated from what I can tell. There are no indications that he traded silver, gold, artifacts etc for anything.
All the walls found at Smiths cove were attempts at blocking the flood tunnels. Maybe they succeeded and then used the ‘back entrance’ that led straight to the bottom of the money pit. They stopped the water, walked in, brought it to the surface and then dragged the treasure down the slipway onto a ship.....gone. The only way to be sure is to build a slurry wall with a 30 meter diameter down to bedrock around the money pit area. That way they can dig everything bit by bit and not miss a thing. This would also block the flood tunnel systems.
Imagine having the money to end hunger or homeless in America...millions of dollars over the last 10 years. I'd rather have a legacy of helping people but to each their own...
Can we get new material maybe? It’s the same thing over and over again. Same narrator that explains the same thing every episode, they show a picture of a hole, 70-90 feet deep with a stone tablet, then show the boobytraps, “ 6 have died already, legend says 7 have to die “
Let’s see a broach a coin and some very old buried wood! At this point use a technology that allows the whole island to be scanned and either find something or move on!!
There is no gold or treasure buried at Oak Island, the Lagina's know this. Look at the amount of money spent and the engineering and mechanical expertise used in this series in the last several years, all leading to nothing. We can’t replicate with massive machinery and millions spent what some sailors with shovels did hundreds of years ago? So they buried their loot 170 ft down and rigged the hole up with complex booby traps to stop anyone in the future from getting to the treasure? How did they do this? Why so deep? So they filled their giant holes up and left for good? Why didn’t they come back to retrieve their treasure and if they did, how would they by-pass their own booby traps or even get close to the target? These are just some random thoughts, to me it’ s obviously a lot of BS. There’s a new species of reality show brought to life because of the success of this series. All use the same formula: you NEED to be looking for gold, present vague evidence weekly in a slow drip, use increasingly complex theories to widen the parameter of the search, ensuring more potential seasons and most importantly, never FIND the treasure.
Couldn't have put it better myself ! I'd love to see someone dig a 170ft hole lol the other thing was that company is 1865 iirc supposedly found the box drains so why didn't they dig it back to the Money pit ? Their theories are absurd also lol so many so called professionals give their thoughts and everyone is right yet none can find anything lol
I didn't think much of it until they started pulling man made artifacts up from deep underground and are now finding structures at Smith's Cove. Now I am wondering why would anyone go through all of this trouble. I want to know the reason for all of the trouble they went through. A reality show wouldn't do this to this extreme. What the show is guilty of is dragging it out. About 5 minutes of worthy information in each show. I stopped watching the show on TV and fast forward the You Tube Videos. Something is there, but it may only be a cargo port.
The obviously were super engineer's and 200 years later they anticipated cranes and bore drills to protect their treasure. They were so good at it that they never managed to recover it themselves. All done with wooden shovels and maybe a pick axe....ridiculous.
I'm not so sure that's true and this is been my gripe about that show.. A private production company, the entity that films and produces this show, and The History Channel have been given exclusive right to release information as they see fit.. Meaning, they can sit on it until they can produce a commercial product, a TV show, and sell advertising in the meantime.. My argument is, NO private company should have the right to withhold historically significant information from the world for its own financial enrichment.. History does not belong to the History Channel..
EdinburghFive.. I suspect there's SOMETHING there, a TON of effort went into building all of the underground stucture years ago, but maybe not what they keep theorizing about, who knows.. My point is, if they DO find anything historically significant, NO one should have the right to withhold the information from the world at large for the sake of financial gain.. There are OTHER people who have spent their lives studying these matters who could die of old age, never knowing the answers, while a private company figures out how to make a nickel off of a discovery.. You might be entirely correct and I wouldn't have a problem with that, but the show needs to stop dragging its feet in order to keep raking in the dough and get to the heart of the matter.. It smells of extraordinary greed to me..
@@carlbamburg7439 - Despite the fact under their treasure trove license they do not need an archaeologist on hand, what they are doing is watched by the government. The level of work they are currently carrying out on the island pales in comparison to the work done in the 1960s, etc. That work devastated large areas of the island. There are no underground (man made) structures there. Lots of talk about it but no real evidence. The treasure for the investors is the show itself.
"Join us in season 43 when the team discovers more buried wood. Coukd it be that this wood, was the same wood that Jesus and the Knights Templar used to build the pyramids with? Join us after the break when we will repeat this sentence again, but with more drama."
2-3 years at most -- not a century. They wouldn't have harvested all that wood just to have it lay idle for decades. It's why dendrochronology is used extensively for dating of artifacts, because lumber doesn't sit around unused (especially from that period) for long. Trees were felled when a need arose.
What Dr Laroque was dating was the year the tree was cut not the year it started to grow. You are correct though in that the dating to the later part of the 1700s of the structure is no big deal. This was a wharf built by locals to support their livelihoods (fishing , shipping of products, etc.).
Well fellas your treasure is gone the bits took it. If coir is 1500 that was builder, and this discovery reinforces that the British presage on the island were withdrawing the stash.
I think they've found pay dirt and hid it. Because, in the event of a great find any number of parties would want to claim ownership over it. I was very interested in the early days but now it definitely feels like they're milking it to death, possibly as a distraction.??
I think the U shaped structure was a breakwater to protect a vessel when it was on the slipway during unloading and/or loading. It wasn't quite doing the job so they added the L shaped structure at some point. Safe to say they were loading and unloading stuff, but of course, people were living there. Proves nothing about treasure. Just another indication that the island has been in use for a long time. I do not believe there is any treasure to be had. The treasure is in the story and the money made from the TV show and tourism.
Conclusive proof? I skipped the last 4 seasonstarts due to lack.of interest. Did they find another coin? Lmao. Slowest drying paint on television. Boring.
Flyin Brian lol that’s a nice comment! Compared to previous ones where it’s been a bit of this and that. They have found some really interesting things in smiths cove which correlated to other stories. To me that’s been better than what they have been doing. The lead cross in the last series was the only real significant find.
They should change the title of the show to "some hobbies you can look forward to once you are retired and have extra cash" lol honestly that's what's going on
This has been a fascinating experience for many of your listeners!! It's an adventure for many future young scientists, & historians, geologists, archaeologists etc.Keep up the Search!

they are not treasure hunters anymore... rather than modern millenial archeologist..
They are more like demolition experts than anything else! Drill holes and bulldoze everything!
They're. more like demolition experts!
Drill the island full of holes. Keep on digging and bulldozing every thing in sight!
Once I dug an 8ft deep pit in my back yard. All I found were rusty cans and broken bottles!
Can’t wait to start watching season 7 i think they will find it in season 7
Mikey dopeboy I guarantee they wont find anything worth the time invested into this show

I know.. can't they mix it up?
@BC Bob
Actually Bob, nobody cares if you play along or not. So it was very unnecessary for you to post that you wouldn't play.
That being said.... Sorry you find it so childish old man. You can stick to shuffle board with the others in your retirement home.
1770 wood is priceless!
Please be treasure
Thumbs up for that.
spoiler alert: there's no treasure 🙄
That was the concensus when this went round in the 60's...... (and likely the 40's, 20's, 1800's!) Lol!
Where can we watch last week's episode??
Great series, hope they can find and follow the flood tunnel.
So, basically, pirates of hundreds of years ago have outsmarted you geniuses.
They had a hurricane go through that area last fall. I can't help wondering what damage it did to the island. It took a direct hit. Wonder about all the structures they excavaded. Did they bury them again?
No hurricanes hit Nova Scotia in the fall of 2018. In fact none in 2018 all all. Nova Scotia was hit by a few tropical storms but nothing of any consequence.
HOLY SHAMOLLY, I’ve found a bootin
J Keegan lol!
What is curious to me is why you don't consider Zina Hellper as a casualty of the money pit. That would fulfill the prophecy and she did work on it for years.
Anything that has not been discovered and covered again has been left alone by disinterest.
Bits of gold chain
The reason it is taking so long is because they have to get the datathey can't just go out there and dig a hole and find the treasure they have to find out where to dig at and tell a story on the way I love history it is so awesome
that is some old wood
Remember that Halifax was founded in 1749. The British were about back then..
Oak island team. Please! When you end this quest, list everyone from workers to film crew to experts that made it possible and what role they played in history. I am sure that this entire mystery will be solved and when it does it will change history.
RH2RACING true I thank something is their something very important.
I cannot say for sure if this is related or not-but...the1st Bank of England was founded in 1773.

I enjoy watching this show but most things they’ve found are easily explainable by known facts. It is known that the island was once used as a stop over and repair port for transatlantic sailing ships thus the slipways and structures in the cove. As well if you know how those old 17th, 18th and 19th century ships were ballasted...with rock/earth...whatever they could find where they were built(Europe). It’s not strange to find old European and even Roman ‘stuff’ that could have been in the material excavated and used as ballast. Not to mention things torn off of or thrown off on the ships during repairs.
Who else thinks they should just use the latest deep ground penetrating radar tech and just scan the whole island?..
Good idea. They tried scanning the island early in the show. But they only scanned parts of it and not the entire island itself.
But even if they do that, they do that on Oak Island, which has screwed them over for the past 2 maybe 3 seasons.
Very difficult terrain to do GPR on. You need fairly open areas to effectively use the technology. Too much scrub and woods on the island. Also I suspect given the make up of the soil on the island the depth for GPR may not be much more than three to five feet.
I don't think that ground penetrating radar can detect that deep. Remember their dealing with 100 to over 200 hundred feet under ground.
Yeah 🤔it's getting a bit repetitious❗️lol
If you DVR the whole season..you can watch it in about 3 hours..
Didn't Samuel ball go there poor and then died the richest man in the area? Yes. I think some one already got the treasure. The guy who was poor, then rich.
I think his "rich" status was a little exaggerated from what I can tell. There are no indications that he traded silver, gold, artifacts etc for anything.
The Samuel Ball story is bunkum. Do a bit research and you will see the story the show weaves is exaggerated at best.
All the walls found at Smiths cove were attempts at blocking the flood tunnels. Maybe they succeeded and then used the ‘back entrance’ that led straight to the bottom of the money pit. They stopped the water, walked in, brought it to the surface and then dragged the treasure down the slipway onto a ship.....gone. The only way to be sure is to build a slurry wall with a 30 meter diameter down to bedrock around the money pit area. That way they can dig everything bit by bit and not miss a thing. This would also block the flood tunnel systems.
There are no flood tunnels.
JB Price Then you can explain how the red dye got from the Money Pit area to Smiths Cove so quickly?
Could the u shaped structure be the dock cor the boats coming into Smith's cove? And the position of the slip way would be laying on the shore?
I’m interested in finding out if smith cove was not under water back in the 1500 and 1600 and 1700 and find out if it was a small village or something
Imagine having the money to end hunger or homeless in America...millions of dollars over the last 10 years. I'd rather have a legacy of helping people but to each their own...
Wasnt the water level alot lower back then, and wouldn't that make that island bigger?
Ow please don't get them started!
Jeff k - you are correct. Over the period in question the level has risen by as much as three feet.
The conclusive proof is that its wood, just wood.
Can we get new material maybe?
It’s the same thing over and over again.
Same narrator that explains the same thing every episode, they show a picture of a hole, 70-90 feet deep with a stone tablet, then show the boobytraps, “ 6 have died already, legend says 7 have to die “
Let’s see a broach a coin and some very old buried wood! At this point use a technology that allows the whole island to be scanned and either find something or move on!!
Does that technology exist?
Many pirates caves in Nova Scotia also ... 💀
Congratulation on persistance, to brothers
How did the scientist come up with his dating procedure..carbon dating?? Tree ring procedure..both are not reliable sources
Oak trees grow in Canada many types
How can tell when something was built by the age of the wood? Could it be 999999999999999999999% accurate? Is it possible?
I wonder what they have discovered during the summer break
There is no gold or treasure buried at Oak Island, the Lagina's know this.
Look at the amount of money spent and the engineering and mechanical expertise used in this series in the last several years, all leading to nothing.
We can’t replicate with massive machinery and millions spent what some sailors with shovels did hundreds of years ago?
So they buried their loot 170 ft down and rigged the hole up with complex booby traps to stop anyone in the future from getting to the treasure?
How did they do this? Why so deep? So they filled their giant holes up and left for good? Why didn’t they come back to retrieve their treasure and if they did, how would they by-pass their own booby traps or even get close to the target?
These are just some random thoughts, to me it’ s obviously a lot of BS.
There’s a new species of reality show brought to life because of the success of this series.
All use the same formula: you NEED to be looking for gold, present vague evidence weekly in a slow drip, use increasingly complex theories to widen the parameter of the search, ensuring more potential seasons and most importantly, never FIND the treasure.
Couldn't have put it better myself ! I'd love to see someone dig a 170ft hole lol the other thing was that company is 1865 iirc supposedly found the box drains so why didn't they dig it back to the Money pit ? Their theories are absurd also lol so many so called professionals give their thoughts and everyone is right yet none can find anything lol
The Templars dug underground networks for miles in Europe. You can bet they could dig a 170 foot vault on an island.
How do you explain the pottery, bones, paper and leather 170ft down?
I didn't think much of it until they started pulling man made artifacts up from deep underground and are now finding structures at Smith's Cove. Now I am wondering why would anyone go through all of this trouble. I want to know the reason for all of the trouble they went through. A reality show wouldn't do this to this extreme. What the show is guilty of is dragging it out. About 5 minutes of worthy information in each show. I stopped watching the show on TV and fast forward the You Tube Videos. Something is there, but it may only be a cargo port.
What happened to the flattened bucket?
I hope the find a lot of gold
I'm glad they use science to establish facts. No more mysteries or guesses. The island is only so big. The sociology department comment made me laugh.
The obviously were super engineer's and 200 years later they anticipated cranes and bore drills to protect their treasure. They were so good at it that they never managed to recover it themselves. All done with wooden shovels and maybe a pick axe....ridiculous.
It’s a wharfe
Just remember if they had actually found something that proves anything then it would be on National News
Exactly...obviously it's not next year as well. They're a season behind when it comes to showing. Paint dry yet?
I'm not so sure that's true and this is been my gripe about that show.. A private production company, the entity that films and produces this show, and The History Channel have been given exclusive right to release information as they see fit.. Meaning, they can sit on it until they can produce a commercial product, a TV show, and sell advertising in the meantime..
My argument is, NO private company should have the right to withhold historically significant information from the world for its own financial enrichment.. History does not belong to the History Channel..
@@carlbamburg7439 - They are not finding anything so don't worry about them holding back.
EdinburghFive.. I suspect there's SOMETHING there, a TON of effort went into building all of the underground stucture years ago, but maybe not what they keep theorizing about, who knows.. My point is, if they DO find anything historically significant, NO one should have the right to withhold the information from the world at large for the sake of financial gain..
There are OTHER people who have spent their lives studying these matters who could die of old age, never knowing the answers, while a private company figures out how to make a nickel off of a discovery..
You might be entirely correct and I wouldn't have a problem with that, but the show needs to stop dragging its feet in order to keep raking in the dough and get to the heart of the matter.. It smells of extraordinary greed to me..
@@carlbamburg7439 - Despite the fact under their treasure trove license they do not need an archaeologist on hand, what they are doing is watched by the government. The level of work they are currently carrying out on the island pales in comparison to the work done in the 1960s, etc. That work devastated large areas of the island. There are no underground (man made) structures there. Lots of talk about it but no real evidence. The treasure for the investors is the show itself.
"Join us in season 43 when the team discovers more buried wood. Coukd it be that this wood, was the same wood that Jesus and the Knights Templar used to build the pyramids with? Join us after the break when we will repeat this sentence again, but with more drama."
Great news everyone, we found no treasure.
Guys we've found a beer bottle cap...
a log first grown in 1779 was cut down in 1880 and placed there. who cares, old trees are used all around the world for ramps, homes, piers
2-3 years at most -- not a century. They wouldn't have harvested all that wood just to have it lay idle for decades. It's why dendrochronology is used extensively for dating of artifacts, because lumber doesn't sit around unused (especially from that period) for long. Trees were felled when a need arose.
What Dr Laroque was dating was the year the tree was cut not the year it started to grow. You are correct though in that the dating to the later part of the 1700s of the structure is no big deal. This was a wharf built by locals to support their livelihoods (fishing , shipping of products, etc.).
They found elvis and hitler chilling out with et down the bottom
Well fellas your treasure is gone the bits took it. If coir is 1500 that was builder, and this discovery reinforces that the British presage on the island were withdrawing the stash.
DIRT!!???...AT THE BOTTOM OF THE MONEY PIT!!??...DIRT ESTIMATED TO BE BILLIONS OF YEARS OLD.!!
I think they've found pay dirt and hid it. Because, in the event of a great find any number of parties would want to claim ownership over it. I was very interested in the early days but now it definitely feels like they're milking it to death, possibly as a distraction.??
Soon Jack Sparrow will arrive.
I think the U shaped structure was a breakwater to protect a vessel when it was on the slipway during unloading and/or loading. It wasn't quite doing the job so they added the L shaped structure at some point. Safe to say they were loading and unloading stuff, but of course, people were living there. Proves nothing about treasure. Just another indication that the island has been in use for a long time. I do not believe there is any treasure to be had. The treasure is in the story and the money made from the TV show and tourism.
does this mean someone took out the money pit back in the 1700s?
ohhh yesssss¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
Conclusive proof? I skipped the last 4 seasonstarts due to lack.of interest. Did they find another coin? Lmao. Slowest drying paint on television. Boring.
This season is very exciting
This season has been the best yet, finding actual proper evidence which is confirming past stories and starting to tie it all together
@@GregShaw best yet? OMG obviously you're bed ridden and have nothing better to do than watch these clowns on TV
Flyin Brian lol that’s a nice comment! Compared to previous ones where it’s been a bit of this and that. They have found some really interesting things in smiths cove which correlated to other stories. To me that’s been better than what they have been doing. The lead cross in the last series was the only real significant find.
Don't watch then. Quite simple
I havent watch the show much this year but did THEY show the ship they found buried
Old wood hunters show
I've aged 20 yrs in 6 episodes. Geeeez
They should change the title of the show to "some hobbies you can look forward to once you are retired and have extra cash" lol honestly that's what's going on
Not depositors sounds like a withdrawal
Like the Cocos Island treasure. "The bird has flown." Whatever treasure was there, is long gone.
If they were withdrawing, why would they fill in the hole so carefully?
