‐ Tonight...

on "The Lost Gold of WWII."

‐ Somebody call for a bomb guy?

‐ You're gonna go into our cave with...

two sticks, a straight‐bladed knife,

and a pair of big balls.

‐ All my years of treasure hunting,

I've never seen X marks the spot.

I don't like it.

‐ Maybe the cave on our mountain

was Yamashita's headquarters.

‐ There's something wrong here.

Yamashita didn't make anything easy for anybody.

‐ Whoa! Nobody hold, hold, hold!

Give me that.

‐ For 70 years, legends have been told

of a buried treasure shrouded in danger.

It's one of the great mysteries of World War II.

‐ Something very secretive and strange

has gotta be buried in that mountain.

‐ In a covert operation,

infamous Japanese General Yamashita

allegedly buried thousands of crates

throughout the Philippines near the end of the war.

‐ They were just taking anything of value

gold, silver, weapons, even military secrets.

Yamashita's treasure could be anything.

‐ Now with the help of a key eyewitness...

‐ ...a team of Americans is on the hunt

for this lost chapter in World War II history.

‐ There's something right here in this area.

‐ The question we have right now is,

what is the best way to get inside this mountain?

Lost Gold of World War II Season 1 - EP 3 - Dead Giveaway

Subtitles Diego Moraes / Ewerton Henrique www.oakisland.tk

‐ So I'll isolate that clump.

‐ In the northern Philippines,

John Casey and Manny Paez are inside a cave

searching for what they hope is Yamashita's treasure.

After running into problems at their first dig site,

Breach 6...

‐ How the hell would silt get in here?

‐ ...they turned to advanced technology

to find another way into the mountain.

‐ This right here could be a cave entrance.

‐ Inside the cave,

they've discovered a group of coded symbols.

‐ There's markers on these rocks.

‐ And after triangulating them together,

the team found a rock marked with a distinct X...

‐ This is chisel mark in this thing of an X.

‐ ...which John believes could be concealing

a small treasure,

a larger chamber, or possibly

even the entrance to a network of tunnels.

‐ It's a marker telling us

get the shovel and we're gonna dig...

right now.

‐ Before breaking ground,

John gives the area one last sweep

with his metal detector.

We got a pretty decent‐sized target.

When I cross over the center,

I'm getting a really decent hit.

‐ It could be a barrel of anything,

you know, a barrel of coins!

This rock could be marking an entrance to a tunnel,

for all I know.

Hey, Manny. ‐ Yeah?

‐ I'm super suspicious that it's too easy.

That mark is just way out

right in the blatant open.

That marker over there is just alone by itself.

Why?

You know, then why does it line up

to that one almost in a perfect triangle?

There's something very suspicious about it.

Maybe, you know, they're trying to trick you.

The giveaway marker, the triangulation,

and the X‐marker line up way too easy.

There's something about it that's a little fishy.

It's making me a little nervous, hesitant to go forward.

I don't like it.

Yamashita didn't make anything easy for anybody.

‐ Known as a brilliant strategist,

General Yamashita masterminded the fall of Singapore

with a surprise overland attack

rather than the amphibious invasion

expected by the Allies.

Following the surrender of 80,000 Allied troops

and the loss of their stronghold in Asia,

Winston Churchill declared it

"the worst disaster in British military history."

As a result of this bold military success,

Emperor Hirohito and a secret society

of Japanese royalty called The Golden Lily

allegedly entrusted Yamashita

to safeguard their stolen loot

at the end of World War II.

‐ My gut is telling me it's

there's something wrong here.

Just digging on it could be disastrous.

So, don't put a shovel in the ground just yet.

We just gotta be smarter than them and figure it out, safely.

‐ All right.

‐ All my years of treasure hunting,

I've never seen X marks the spot.

We have to look around a little further

because there's just something not right.

I'm getting a bad feeling.

Hopefully, there's no critters or snakes

or whatever hangin' out.

There's nothing in here.

Okay.

I'm gonna go around the back.

That's a flower.

In the Yamashita codes, that means bomb.

No good.

I'm not gonna take any chances in triggering that bomb.

It was the first time I ever saw an X on top of a rock.

I've never seen a treasure that has X marks the spot.

‐ Very seldom do you ever see X marks the spot.

‐ It's, like, blatant and right in the open.

‐ Yeah. And what they're trying to do also,

it could be to keep you from finding the real treasure

because they don't want you to find it.

But it look like it might be a classic giveaway marker.

‐ Giveaway markers, according to the team's research,

are one of the countless symbols

believed to be left behind by The Golden Lily.

These markers can lead treasure seekers

to a small treasure site.

But sometimes they are used to lure treasure hunters

into deadly booby traps.

‐ So, based on the X mark on that rock,

I started to get a bad feeling as I'm walking around.

Something ain't right.

So I start looking around, see what else I can find.

And, lo and behold, I come across this.

What does that look like to you, Martin?

‐ That's definitely a bomb marker.

It is a flower.

‐ Exactly.

‐ Thisthis here scares me.

‐ It scares me too.

‐ So far, Grandpa had told us

about some people dying in Breach 6.

We found evidence of a possible cyanide bottle.

Well, what could that be?

‐ Could be a cyanide bottle. ‐ Cyanide bottle.

‐ Found evidence of a water trap in Breach 6.

‐ How the hell would silt get in here?

‐ It was possibly deposited by water at one point.

‐ And now this flower.

I think we underestimated how well Yamashita

protected his treasure.

‐ I agree.

It seems like every marker or symbol we follow

seems to lead to danger.

‐ What do we really know about Yamashita?

What was he really doing here?

‐ We know that he was handpicked by The Golden Lily

to protect these treasure sites.

And he surrendered not too far from here,

right around the corner.

‐ In the final months of World War II

following General McArthur's

triumphant return to the Philippines,

American forces advanced north,

cornering Yamashita and his troops

in the mountains of northern Luzon,

forcing his surrender.

‐ If Yamashita surrendered just right around the corner,

maybe we should go to where he was

and get a better insight at what his plans were.

We may learn something new.

Let's start looking at this mountain

as Yamashita looked at it, not as treasure hunters,

but as soldiers.

‐ That's a good idea.

This is the place, Pete,

the place Yamashita came out of the mountains.

‐ 30 miles north of the mountain,

Peter and John visit the surrender site

of General Yamashita

in the remote village of Kiangan.

‐ Look at this view! ‐ Holy crap.

‐ This is where Yamashita made his last stand,

in these surrounding mountains.

‐ So, where's our mountain from here?

‐ Over 30 miles in that direction right there,

maybe just over that largest hump.

‐ I think that he chose this spot

because it drew the Americans

and the Allies away from where the treasure sites were.

‐ I agree.

‐ It all ended right here.

‐ The people from the surrounding villages

wanted to hang him, so they kept him here.

‐ "Surrender of General Yamashita..."

‐ "On this site, General Yamashita,

"together with his staff

"surrendered to the elements of the US 6th Army

"in the morning of September 2nd, 1945.

"On August 15th, Hirohito, the emperor of Japan,

formally surrenders."

It takes 18 days for Yamashita to come out of the mountains

and give himself up.

Why? It makes no sense.

‐ He was hiding something.

Whoa, look at this place.

A lot of stuff in here.

Oh, here's his instrument of surrender.

‐ "The formal instrument of surrender of the Japanese

"Imperial government

and the Japanese Imperial General Headquarters."

‐ He signed right there.

‐ There.

Look at this here picture.

"General Yamashita's cave headquarters in Baguio."

He had his headquarters in a cave.

‐ It's believed General Yamashita used caverns

as his personal command centers

providing him a secure network of natural bunkers

as he moved around the Philippines.

A similar strategy was employed by Al Qaeda leader,

Osama bin Laden, following the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

Despite being the most wanted man in the world,

he managed to avoid capture in part

by moving from cave to cave in the mountains

of Afghanistan.

‐ Maybe the cave on our mountain

was one of Yamashita's headquarters.

It was a perfect place to have aa headquarters,

a position to control the whole mountain.

‐ Based on the photo, John speculates

that their cave could possibly have served

as a secondary headquarters to Yamashita and his men.

I want to know if this cave is just a treasure bunker,

or if it's the key to getting inside this mountain.

That's a flower.

‐ While exploring a remote cave at the top of the mountain,

John Casey was stopped by the discovery

of a flower carved into a rock

which, according to The Golden Lily code,

could mean a bomb.

In order to investigate the cave safely,

the team has invited an explosive ordnance

and military expert to the mountain.

‐ Somebody call for a bomb guy?

Chad Higginbotham. ‐ Pete Struzzieri.

‐ Good to meet you. ‐ John Casey.

‐ Good to meet you, John.

‐ Let's get you situated first.

Come on inside. ‐ All right.

‐ So Chad, what's your background?

‐ I started out in the military, January 1st of 1990.

I did two tours in Somalia,

two in Iraq, two in Afghanistan,

and another two in other operations

that I can't talk about.

‐ Well, we brought you in today

so we could get some information from you

about a cave that we located up in the mountains.

Looking around on the outside of the cave,

I came across this marker here.

According to the Japanese codes, that's a bomb marker.

That means it's a booby trap.

‐ The thing about Japanese booby traps is,

the only limitation to a booby trap

is the limitation of your imagination.

‐ What experience have you had

with handling explosive ordnance?

‐ In Afghanistan and Iraq,

most of what we found were in caves

and they were stockpiled.

And we went in and removed them.

‐ So you're the guy that's got the experience then.

‐ Yes. ‐ All right.

‐ Let me get up there and look around

and see what I can find.

‐ Do you wear protective clothing over you

when you do this, or just...

‐ When I'm dealing with explosives?

‐ Yeah, what are you gonna wear when you go in the cave?

‐ Just what I'm wearing.

That bomb suit is only so they can pour you in a casket

if it goes off.

‐ That don't sound too good at all.

‐ So you're going to go into our cave with...

‐ Two sticks, a straight‐bladed knife

and a pair of big balls.

‐ Okay.

Fair enough.

‐ John and Manny lead Chad to the top of the mountain

so they can get his expert opinion

about what they're possibly dealing with

inside the cave.

‐ I've been dyin' to get back in this cave and keep exploring,

but it's been too dangerous.

So now that Chad's here, we can get back in there

and safely explore what may have been

one of General Yamashita's headquarters.

Heading to the good stuff now. ‐ Here we go.

‐ All right, this is beautiful up here.

The views are phenomenal.

‐ We're almost there.

‐ So, how far are we from the cave now?

Where's it at? ‐ Oh, over here.

I mean, that little dark spot under there,

that's where our cave starts dropping in.

‐ Oh, okay.

Tell you what, a lot of this is very, very defendable.

This is definitely manmade.

Itit's definitely dug out.

This is not natural.

I mean, this would be your checkpoint

for anybody comin' in.

‐ Outside the cave's entrance,

Chad's military‐trained eyes

see the area for what it could be

a defensible position.

‐ Like right here, it's it's dug out right here.

You can see it's lower,

and this is pretty good size to be one single foxhole.

You're not getting past this point

if you're not sayin' the right words.

So, this was a hell of a defendable spot.

Yet they didn't fight here.

‐ The Japanese were over there fighting.

‐ In Dalton Pass. ‐ Yeah.

‐ 85 miles south of the mountain at Dalton Pass,

from January to August 1945,

this narrow passage provided the backdrop

of the pivotal Battle of Luzon

where thousands of Allied troops

faced fierce resistance from the Japanese Imperial Army.

Both sides suffered heavy casualties,

and though it was an eventual win for the Allies,

some believe the Japanese were successful enough

in buying the critical time needed

for Yamashita's men to finish concealing

the Imperial treasure in the Philippines.

‐ You've got soldiers here,

you've got defendable positions here.

You've got things you can see

that were built for a battle,

but it was never here.

So, if you don't want somebody to know something's there,

you draw them somewhere else. ‐ Right.

‐ So what do you think they were doing here?

‐ Burying treasure. ‐ Yeah.

If they wanted to hide it,

you don't let everybody know it's there.

So you draw them that way.

It's a big diversion. ‐ Exactly.

Don't bring them to the front door of the piggy bank.

‐ Well, let's...you wanna go look at the cave,

I wanna see this. ‐ Yeah, let's check it out.

Grab our gear, let's go.

‐ With the Japanese,

I think the way this is set up,

it is very possible that there is something here

that they were willing to defend

or use other tactics

to draw people away from it.

Oh, yeah, wow! ‐ Here it is!

‐ This is a hell of a spot, man.

This cave is out of the way.

You know, it could've been a bunker.

Let melet me take a look around for a minute.

Y'all just kinda hang out right here.

‐ Sure thing.

‐ General Yamashita is reported to have placed booby traps

within all Golden Lily treasure sites.

Using his years of ordnance disposal experience,

Chad explores the cave interior

for signs of old World War II explosives.

‐ I'm seeing a rust deposit that's running through

under this rock.

‐ I do see that rust.

I'm not sure what the hell that is.

‐ It could be part of a bomb that was here.

Yeah, I don'tI don't like the looks of that.

‐ High up the mountain, before the team

can begin digging for the treasure

they believe to be buried inside the cave,

explosives expert, Chad Higginbotham,

investigates a rust‐stained area

to make certain it's not an active Japanese booby trap.

‐ All right, look, you guys are treasure hunters.

You're trusting those markers that are saying

the treasure's here, right? ‐ Mm‐hmm.

‐ You've also got to trust the ones that say

there's a booby trap here.

It could be part of a bomb,

but it's degrading.

It's no danger to us right now.

‐ World War II‐era Japanese explosives were made from metal

and due to the wet climate of the Philippines,

it's likely the large rust stain

is the degraded remains of a device.

If that's the case,

any other potential Japanese booby traps in the cave

would likewise be deteriorated.

‐ This is built up. ‐ Right.

‐ The section you're standing on is built up with dirt.

This is aa ledge here.

‐ This isn't just washed out. ‐ Right.

‐ I mean, this is a retaining wall.

‐ Mm‐hmm. ‐ With this being built up,

they could have wanted to either bury something

or get up out of the water.

‐ Every time you start looking around this cave

and you start looking close,

you start to see something that's man‐made.

‐ Right.

See, like that right there.

That is man‐made, out of the ordinary.

That's not a natural occurrence right here.

‐ And then there's, you know, I got plenty of room in here.

You can see from the soot on the ceiling over here,

they've been cooking back there.

And they seem like they always made

all their fires in one spot.

I mean, you could've housed 30, 40 guys in here.

Could be a stronghold for the Japanese

while they were burying treasure in the area.

‐ So, where have y'all been so far walking around in here?

‐ We scanned this with metal detectors

and we found some spots over here.

‐ Days earlier, after triangulating

a Golden Lily giveaway marker,

John and Manny discovered a rock

marked with an X that they think

may be covering a deposit of treasure.

‐ Right there where you're standing in.

‐ Right in here? ‐ Right.

‐ All right, I don't see anything obvious.

‐ With Chad's approval,

John and Manny start digging around the X‐marked rock.

Meanwhile, back at base camp,

Peter and Martin discuss other treasure hunting operations

in the Philippines to gain some insight

on how best to investigate their mountain.

‐ There's a guy, his name was Roger Roxas.

He was a treasure hunter,

and allegedly he found a Golden Buddha

and a lot of gold bars associated with it.

But he's the only legitimate treasure hunter

in the Philippines

that has actually supposedly found treasure.

‐ Some say by the time General Yamashita

and his engineers completed their work,

they had constructed and filled

an alleged 175 different treasure sites.

Based on the clues they've discovered so far,

Peter and John believe Grandpa's mountain

is one of the main Golden Lily treasure locations.

‐ I'm gonna go see Henry Roxas.

His dad actually recovered a Yamashita treasure,

and I want to know how he did it.

‐ I'd like to know too.

I think that's a great idea.

‐ Maybe by seeing Henry,

I can get some more insight as what to do on my mountain.

How did Roger Roxas actually find a piece

of Yamashita's treasure and live to tell about it?

‐ Peter travels 80 miles west to Baguio,

to meet with Roger Roxas' son, Henry.

‐ Oh, oh. ‐ Hi.

Hello, my name is Peter Struzzieri.

‐ I'm Henry Roxas. ‐ Henry, nice to meet you.

‐ No, nice to meet you too.

‐ Wow, what a view here.

‐ Have a seat, sir. ‐ Thank you, thank you.

‐ Have a seat.

‐ You're a treasure hunter, all right?

Just like me. ‐ Yes, sir.

‐ And your father found some treasure.

‐ Yes, sir.

‐ Why don't you tell me the story?

‐ My dad is only a ordinary man

here in the Philippines.

And suddenly there is a man walking in front of our store.

He is sick.

That man is a Japanese soldier.

That Japanese soldier gave a map to my dad...

‐ So he gave him a map of treasure

that was inside a hospital to say thank you.

‐ Yes.

The tunnel is almost 191 feet.

‐ Down? ‐ Down.

‐ Under the floor, under the hospital.

‐ Yes, sir.

They work almost nine months

because plenty of rooms inside.

‐ Did he run into any booby traps down there?

‐ Uh, no, sir.

‐ And he finds treasure? ‐ Yes, sir.

‐ Solid gold? ‐ Yes.

‐ Where does he take it to? Your house?

‐ Yes. ‐ How old were you then?

‐ Four? You saw the gold? ‐ Yes. Yeah.

‐ Did you see the Buddha? ‐ Yes...

But...

‐ And they took it. ‐ Yes, sir.

After they raid our place,

because plenty press

already saying they get the Buddha

from Mr. Roxas, they return the Buddha...

‐ Oh. ‐ You cannot remove...

‐ Oh, they brought a fake Buddha back to your house.

‐ Inside was diamonds? ‐ Yes, inside.

I have pictures. ‐ Oh, can I see those?

‐ Yes.

The picture of my dad, sir.

‐ Oh, there's the Buddha

and here's the head right here.

‐ These ones are his, the fake Buddha.

‐ Did they say it was Yamashita's treasure?

‐ Yes. ‐ In the newspapers, too?

‐ Yes. That's my dad.

‐ Isee, that's good,

because it shows me that Yamashita

really hid treasure in these mountains,

and that's what I'm looking for.

‐ Yes, sir. ‐ Okay.

When your dad found the treasure,

did he find anything else in that tunnel?

‐ Yes, sir. It's here.

You like me to show you? ‐ Yeah, show me.

‐ Has anyone else seen what's in this box?

‐ My family and you only, sir.

‐ I'm honored. ‐ Yes, sir.

You know, I can't wait to look what's in there now.

‐ Team leader Peter Struzzieri is in the city of Baguio

talking with Henry Roxas

who just confirmed that his father, Roger,

discovered one of the 175

assumed Golden Lily treasure sites.

‐ Oh, my goodness! Oh!

This is a treasure in itself.

‐ That's my dad's collection too.

These coins were from my father.

‐ So all these coins were found in that tunnel?

‐ Yes.

‐ 1908.

‐ Yes. ‐ It's a silver peso.

‐ We have also 14th century coins.

‐ Wait a minute, this this was in the tunnel too?

‐ Yes, sir. ‐ When I was a kid,

I used to dream about holding Yamashita's treasure,

and here I am actually touching a Yamashita treasure.

‐ Well, I have also Japanese sword.

I'll show you.

Yes, sir.

‐ Thank you, sir.

And youyour father found this in the tunnel

with the Buddha and the gold.

‐ Yes, sir. You can see the picture.

This is the picture.

‐ Oh! Look at this!

This is a treasure in itself.

Thank you so much for letting me even hold this.

What a privilege.

You honor me by letting me hold this.

Thank you, sir. ‐ You're welcome, sir.

‐ Henry's story is really amazing.

But the thing that sticks with me

is that a Japanese soldier

actually came back here with the treasure map,

which eventually his father got a hold of that map

and found a piece Yamashita's treasure.

I can't wait to get back to my mountain to continue my dig.

‐ Yes, sir. Good luck, thank you for coming.

‐ You're very helpful. Thank you so much.

‐ Any help, sir, just tell me.

‐ I will, thank you. ‐ Goodbye, sir.

‐ I'm gonna go back and talk to Grandpa,

and see if he knows about any Japanese soldiers

that came here after the war.

‐ Meanwhile, high up the mountain

inside the cave with the rock marked with an X,

John and Manny continue excavating

around the large stone

in hopes of uncovering a piece of the Golden Lily treasure.

‐ How certain are you guys

that there is actually something down here?

‐ Well, our metal detector's giving us a hit.

‐ Oh, hold on.

A little space again between rocks, or...

‐ As well as all this other is packed,

I don't know why that wouldn't be packed like that.

‐ That's kinda strange. ‐ It is.

‐ It looks like it goes in far,

or is it just like a space where...

‐ Yeah, it turns in right here.

‐ Oh, it goes in there pretty good, huh?

‐ Yeah.

‐ The giveaway marker, the X on the rock,

the void space behind it,

that rock's gotta go.

‐ Let's get it. ‐ Okay, let's do it.

‐ If we can move this rock safely,

it may reveal an opening

that would lead to something big.

‐ With a promising void space blocked by the large rock

marked with an X,

John and Manny excavate around the boulder

to get a better look.

‐ ...to dig right up against it.

There is something rusty back there.

‐ It's kinda strange.

‐ It is. Okay.

‐ Something metallic?

‐ This is rusty, it is curved,

it is hard, and it is buried.

That very well could've been a grenade at one point.

‐ Whoa.

‐ A canister of a grenade or something.

Yeah, this whole thing's degraded, busted out.

‐ What do you think, John?

‐ It's not a grenade anymore.

‐ It absolutely was a grenade.

See the rim on it?

‐ Upon seeing the rusted rim,

Chad is convinced what they are unearthing in the cave

are the remains of a deteriorated grenade.

‐ It would've had a wooden handle about that long on it,

and then a grenade on the top. It looks like a soda can.

Itit would've been what the Nazis would've called

a potato masher. ‐ Wow.

‐ The German Model 24 "stalk hand grenade"

or "potato masher"

is a fragmentation grenade used during World War I

and World War II by German forces.

Heralded for its ease of use and optimal design,

the Japanese made their own version of this grenade

called the Type 98.

‐ I believe that's what this is.

If that's degraded that bad, the wood's just rotted away.

‐ Oh, yeah, Japanese soldiers would've used them too.

‐ The potential grenade pieces Chad found

are degraded to the point there is no danger.

But the rusted bits of metal could be evidence

that someone placed a booby trap here long ago.

‐ Imagine 70 years ago.

These would be deadly.

‐ Oh, yeah, yeah, that would take you out.

It all comes up, there's fragmentation

with the pieces of that metal when they break off.

And that's what goes into you.

‐ Well, somebody put that there for a reason.

‐ Yeah. All right,

if we can find the edges of this rock,

that would be great.

‐ Meanwhile, Peter decides to revisit Grandpa,

an eyewitness to Yamashita's clandestine activities

in the Philippines during World War II.

‐ Grandpa is a great resource.

He's been here, he's been on this mountain.

Grandpa...

How are you? How are you? Nice to see you again.

‐ You're getting old? ‐ Oh, yes.

‐ Me too.

Maybe you can help me.

Maybe you can answer some of the questions for me, okay?

‐ Yes, sir.

‐ Do you remember any Japanese soldiers coming back here

after the war?

‐ A general? When? When did you meet him?

‐ After the war you met him.

Wow.

Did he go treasure hunting on the mountain?

‐ Did he have any maps with him?

‐ Did he ask you to come to the mountain and help him dig?

‐ Then what happened?

‐ A bomb?

He died by a booby trap.

‐ I got guys on the mountain right now

and I'm worried about their safety.

I don't mean to press you.

I got a lot of responsibility on this trip.

I have to protect my people.

‐ Well, it's hard.

‐ Oh, crap. What's that?

‐ Whoa! Nobody hold, hold, hold.

Give me that.

‐ What you got, Chad?

‐ It's the detonator. ‐ Back up, back out, back out, back out.

This is the top of a potato masher grenade.

You were digging right here? ‐ Right there.

That's where I just flipped it up out of.

‐ I've got to get this one out and take a better look at it.

I'm gonna have everybody back up

so I can get it into some better light.

‐ The suspected detonator appears more intact

than the grenade pieces the team previously uncovered.

Chad takes it into the light

to confirm it's no longer a threat.

‐ All right, I'm gonna turn this a hair...

It's inert.

‐ There you go.

‐ Without a firing mechanism,

the detonator poses no danger to the team.

‐ Let me see if I can find you another one.

‐ So they return to their excavation

beneath the X‐marked rock.

‐ This one looks like it keeps on going.

More rocks.

Oh, hold on boys. Hold on a second.

‐ What you got?

Look at that.

We found a coin, boys!

Look at that.

That's definitely a coin, that's not garbage.

‐ You want me to clean it up?

‐ Yeah, we got some water?

Oh, it's the first piece of treasure we found on this site.

I'm so excited.

Where there's one, there's two, baby.

Oh, that's killer.

If I can see a little closer...

‐ Finding something like that in here

is a pretty good sign for you.

‐ No doubt!

Finding this coin is great,

but what the hell's it doing 5,000 feet up a mountain,

buried next to a rock with an X on it?

Oh, Manny.

I'll have to share it with Pete.

He's gonna be stoked! Put it somewhere safe now.

‐ It's a good sign, John.

It's a beautiful day.

‐ How's it goin', guys? ‐ Hey, guys!

‐ Look at the smiles on your faces.

‐ Hopefully, you got a bunch of stuff there, Manny.

‐ We got a lot, we got a lot.

‐ We're diggin' around, and all of a sudden,

I see a little round thing.

‐ Oh, it's a coin. ‐ It's an actual coin.

‐ Look at that!

‐ It's treasure, baby!

That thing is killer.

You can actually look across there.

We took some pictures, tried to blow it up

You can actually see some kind of writing on it,

but who knows what?

‐ Send it off to Bingo to get a better look at it.

‐ It certainly proves to me

that there's more down there possibly.

Manny, grab the other thing.

‐ Whoa, look at that. ‐ What is that?

‐ That is the detonator for a Japanese hand grenade.

The timer would've been there,

it would've been on the top.

There would've been a spring system

with two different types of detonators in there,

which would go off simultaneously

setting off the explosion.

‐ So, could this have been something purposely put there,

so if you moved the rock, it would explode?

‐ What I can say is,

that was put there to hurt somebody

who was messing around that rock.

‐ So something like that,

obviously if it were placed there purposely,

they were trying to hide something important.

‐ Thatthat would be my guess.

I would not booby trap something that was worthless.

‐ Right. ‐ That's right.

‐ Guys, you really made my day.

This is really great.

The rock said booby trap, and we find booby traps.

The rock says treasure, now we find a coin in there.

‐ But for me, I have to know for sure if the cave is safe.

‐ You brought me in here for a booby trap problem.

That's taken care of.

Yes, I believe it's safe.

You can continue on with what you're doing.

‐ And that X‐rock is much bigger than I anticipated.

I'm gonna need some extra manpower to help me move it.

You know, it's a lot of digging.

So I'm gonna need your help.

Maybe we go up there and look at it,

formulate a plan.

I wanna see what else is buried underneath that X‐rock.

‐ Home, sweet home.

Yeah. ‐ You all right?

‐ Now that the cave has been safely cleared of booby traps,

John, Manny, and Jeremy return

to see if they can move the treasure rock

marked with an X

and discover what lies beneath.

‐ We're finding the coin, we find a grenade.

Now, I'm convinced there's something else

underneath that we need to find.

We really want to get this rock outta here.

This is that bad boy I was tellin' you about.

‐ You see the X mark, Jeremy?

‐ Big X right here.

‐ This part up was the only part that we saw sticking out, so...

and the coin kinda slid out of this little edge here.

It was on the edge of this little lip.

‐ So where was the hand grenade?

‐ Just underneath your feet.

‐ Oh, hell, no.

‐ The question is, that now that you've seen it,

how do you see us moving this treasure rock?

Well, I was hoping I could

come up here and just pick it up,

but it don't quite seem like it, John.

We'll probably have to shovel a little bit more around it,

get it freed up.

‐ The team resumes digging under the rock marked with an X,

hoping to find the giveaway treasure

they believe is buried below.

‐ That thing's a monster and a half.

‐ All right.

Here we go.

‐ There you go. ‐ Stick it up under there.

Oh, here we go, baby.

Watch your feet, there. ‐ Yeah, I'm good. I'm clear.

‐ Try to get this side up, John.

‐ There you go.

There it is. That's what I'm looking for.

Good job, bro.

Yeah, I knew.

Brought the powerhouse up here.

He'd manhandle that thing right out of there,

and I was right.

Jeremy's built like a refrigerator.

He grabs onto that rock and he's heaving on it.

And he chucks it off to the side like it's a,

you know, nothin'.

Now we're like, yeah, we're we're on our way.

All right, let me get the metal detector.

‐ There you go, right there.

‐ Whatever it is, it's right in there, Manny.

Slide that stuff up the hill.

Seein' anything?

‐ No, notnot yet.

‐ Put it right there.

‐ It's a coin! ‐ Yeah, look!

‐ All right, our second coin!

It's a big coin, too. Not like that other one.

It's very strange that they're singular, though.

So maybe when someone was pulling out a treasure

and dropped a few out of the box.

This cave is amazing.

So far we found possibly a Japanese hand grenade

and two coins buried under a rock with an X on it.

I'm dyin' to see what's even deeper.

Maybe this is our way inside this mountain.

Two down.

And where there's two, there's probably three.

‐ Could be a lot more... ‐ And the rest is still there.

‐ That's my hope.

‐ We got it, Jeremy. [ laughs ]

‐ Let's find the third one now!

‐ This is good.

‐ Yeah, baby!

‐ On the next "Lost Gold of World War II"...

‐ How the hell did this coin

end up in the middle of the Philippines?

‐ That is the million dollar question.

‐ I see bubbles. ‐ Oh, what the

‐ Is it safe here? ‐ Keep digging.

If there is a tunnel,

it might lead us right into the mountain.

The story rock is possibly directions to the treasure.

‐ Oh, yeah.

Okay, let's suit up.

I don't know what we're gonna find in here.

We may have a booby trap.

‐ Yamashita, look out! A little more.

‐ Come on!

Stop. Stop!
