Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:03,545 --> 00:00:05,339
This looks like a minefield.
2
00:00:05,339 --> 00:00:07,174
‐The island
3
00:00:07,174 --> 00:00:09,343
can't keep its secret anymore.
It can't do it.
4
00:00:11,053 --> 00:00:15,474
Ooh! This is a 1700s
ship's spike.
5
00:00:15,474 --> 00:00:17,976
I discovered the Spanish ships
deposited their treasure
6
00:00:17,976 --> 00:00:20,062
on Oak Island,
and they protect it
7
00:00:20,062 --> 00:00:21,855
‐with flood tunnels.
‐Wow!
8
00:00:21,855 --> 00:00:23,482
Heads up.
Whoa.
9
00:00:23,482 --> 00:00:25,234
Whoa.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
10
00:00:25,234 --> 00:00:26,610
Hey, there's wood there!
11
00:00:26,610 --> 00:00:28,487
That's a tunnel!
12
00:00:30,739 --> 00:00:34,368
There is an island
in the North Atlantic
13
00:00:34,368 --> 00:00:37,871
where people have been looking
for an incredible treasure
14
00:00:37,871 --> 00:00:41,208
for more than 200 years.
15
00:00:41,208 --> 00:00:44,253
So far, they have found
a stone slab
16
00:00:44,253 --> 00:00:46,922
with strange symbols
carved into it,
17
00:00:46,922 --> 00:00:49,758
mysterious fragments
of human bone,
18
00:00:49,758 --> 00:00:53,553
and a lead cross
whose origin may stretch back
19
00:00:53,553 --> 00:00:56,098
to the days
of the Knights Templar.
20
00:00:56,098 --> 00:01:00,560
To date, six men have died
trying to solve the mystery.
21
00:01:01,561 --> 00:01:03,730
And, according to legend,
22
00:01:03,730 --> 00:01:06,817
one more will have to die
23
00:01:06,817 --> 00:01:10,487
before the treasure
can be found.
24
00:01:20,581 --> 00:01:22,583
Well, you should be interested
in this, though, Dan.
25
00:01:22,583 --> 00:01:24,543
This is your find, correct?
26
00:01:24,543 --> 00:01:26,128
Uh, yeah.
27
00:01:26,128 --> 00:01:29,172
For brothers
Rick and Marty Lagina
28
00:01:29,172 --> 00:01:31,633
and members of their team,
the recent unearthing
29
00:01:31,633 --> 00:01:34,511
of an old sluiceway tunnel
near the Money Pit site‐‐
30
00:01:34,511 --> 00:01:37,222
found with the help
of information
31
00:01:37,222 --> 00:01:40,142
provided by veteran
treasure hunter Dan Henskee‐‐
32
00:01:40,142 --> 00:01:42,769
may have put them
one major step closer
33
00:01:42,769 --> 00:01:46,273
to locating the original
Oak Island treasure shaft.
34
00:01:46,273 --> 00:01:48,650
There it is right there.
35
00:01:48,650 --> 00:01:50,694
He's got the wall right there.
36
00:01:50,694 --> 00:01:53,405
Yeah?
Oh, that's beautiful. Yeah.
37
00:01:54,531 --> 00:01:56,325
‐Look at that.
Yeah.
38
00:01:56,325 --> 00:01:57,993
Well, it was there all along.
39
00:01:57,993 --> 00:02:00,120
‐That's incredible.
‐Yeah.
40
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,831
Oh, the workmanship
was great, yeah.
41
00:02:02,831 --> 00:02:05,542
According to Dan Henskee,
42
00:02:05,542 --> 00:02:09,338
the sluiceway was built in 1863
43
00:02:09,338 --> 00:02:12,424
by members
of the Oak Island Association,
44
00:02:12,424 --> 00:02:14,718
one of the many corporations
that has been formed
45
00:02:14,718 --> 00:02:17,095
to locate
the legendary treasure.
46
00:02:18,472 --> 00:02:20,182
The purpose of the sluiceway
47
00:02:20,182 --> 00:02:22,851
was to siphon water
away from Shaft Nine,
48
00:02:22,851 --> 00:02:25,896
a searcher shaft
that was dug that same year
49
00:02:25,896 --> 00:02:28,106
in an effort to reach
the Money Pit.
50
00:02:29,483 --> 00:02:31,610
Because Shaft Nine
was constructed
51
00:02:31,610 --> 00:02:35,197
at a time when the location of
the Money Pit was still known,
52
00:02:35,197 --> 00:02:38,200
it is the team's hope
that by tracing the sluiceway
53
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,702
back to the main shaft,
it will provide them
54
00:02:40,702 --> 00:02:42,663
with a crucial landmark,
55
00:02:42,663 --> 00:02:45,832
one which they can use
with the help of old maps
56
00:02:45,832 --> 00:02:49,336
to pinpoint the exact location
of the fabled treasure vault.
57
00:02:51,546 --> 00:02:54,341
So, uh, that looks
like my hole there.
58
00:02:54,341 --> 00:02:57,177
And I want to get in there
from the other way
59
00:02:57,177 --> 00:02:59,680
‐and just verify that.
‐All right.
60
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,098
Dan's gonna work his way.
61
00:03:01,098 --> 00:03:03,016
He wants to go behind there
and take a look.
62
00:03:03,016 --> 00:03:05,018
‐Okay.
‐He dug a hole right there.
63
00:03:05,018 --> 00:03:07,020
He wants to confirm
that line of sight,
64
00:03:07,020 --> 00:03:09,523
but you...
you obviously are on it.
65
00:03:20,826 --> 00:03:21,952
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
66
00:03:23,412 --> 00:03:26,123
Is that wood,
or is that, uh, stone?
67
00:03:26,123 --> 00:03:28,291
It's stone right now,
but if you... if you got
68
00:03:28,291 --> 00:03:31,169
over there by Rick,
you'd see, like, that much wall.
69
00:03:41,054 --> 00:03:43,390
Is that the bottom there yet,
Scott, or not?
70
00:03:43,390 --> 00:03:45,392
Um, I think we're near it.
71
00:03:45,392 --> 00:03:47,811
Do we want to keep following
this wall back first,
72
00:03:47,811 --> 00:03:49,813
come back to the bank
with this wall,
73
00:03:49,813 --> 00:03:51,898
then see if we can get
the other side?
74
00:03:51,898 --> 00:03:53,608
Well, keep coming to this side,
'cause it's easier
75
00:03:53,608 --> 00:03:56,403
for me to tuck into the side,
and then I won't smash it.
76
00:03:56,403 --> 00:03:58,572
I mean, this is enough for me
to get a line here.
77
00:03:58,572 --> 00:04:00,407
If we can do the same
at the top,
78
00:04:00,407 --> 00:04:02,117
I can calculate a convergence
point rather quickly,
79
00:04:02,117 --> 00:04:03,660
and I can stake out the line.
80
00:04:03,660 --> 00:04:04,744
Yeah.
81
00:04:06,079 --> 00:04:07,747
To assist the team
82
00:04:07,747 --> 00:04:10,750
in locating Shaft Nine,
surveyor Steve Guptill
83
00:04:10,750 --> 00:04:13,753
will take GPS measurements
of the exposed sluiceway
84
00:04:13,753 --> 00:04:17,757
to determine what direction
it should continue underground.
85
00:04:17,757 --> 00:04:20,177
Because of Dan's information,
86
00:04:20,177 --> 00:04:22,179
we uncovered the sluiceway.
87
00:04:22,179 --> 00:04:23,847
Still functioning.
88
00:04:23,847 --> 00:04:25,891
Uh, but now
we're gonna follow...
89
00:04:25,891 --> 00:04:28,435
hopefully follow the tunnel
back and dig the shaft itself.
90
00:04:28,435 --> 00:04:30,771
It's never been more important
to uncover a shaft,
91
00:04:30,771 --> 00:04:33,523
because at the time
Shaft Nine was dug,
92
00:04:33,523 --> 00:04:35,942
they knew the location
of the Money Pit.
93
00:04:35,942 --> 00:04:37,986
I'm just gonna calculate
this line and walk it right now.
94
00:04:37,986 --> 00:04:40,864
I'll think it's pretty cool
if the dots connect uphill.
95
00:04:40,864 --> 00:04:43,033
‐Yeah.
‐Okay, so here's what we'll do.
96
00:04:43,033 --> 00:04:45,702
Billy will dig the other side
of this...
97
00:04:45,702 --> 00:04:47,662
‐sluiceway to expose it.
‐Yep.
98
00:04:47,662 --> 00:04:49,039
We'll get some
really good photos of it,
99
00:04:49,039 --> 00:04:51,500
and then we'll, uh...
we'll take Doug's advice‐‐
100
00:04:51,500 --> 00:04:53,460
we'll go up about 20, 25 feet.
101
00:04:53,460 --> 00:04:56,546
Steve, we'll put you on the mark
on the west side of the road.
102
00:04:56,546 --> 00:04:58,423
We'll dig a test pit,
see if we can find
103
00:04:58,423 --> 00:05:01,968
the connection where it transits
from sluiceway to tunnel.
104
00:05:01,968 --> 00:05:04,471
‐Yeah.
‐
105
00:05:18,235 --> 00:05:19,736
Later that day...
106
00:05:19,736 --> 00:05:21,738
Okay, here we are.
107
00:05:21,738 --> 00:05:24,533
...Rick, his brother Marty,
108
00:05:24,533 --> 00:05:26,117
their partner Craig Tester
109
00:05:26,117 --> 00:05:27,702
and surveyor Steve Guptill
110
00:05:27,702 --> 00:05:30,580
head to the area
known as the Cave‐In Pit,
111
00:05:30,580 --> 00:05:32,666
located west of Smith's Cove.
112
00:05:32,666 --> 00:05:34,835
They are eager to begin
what will be
113
00:05:34,835 --> 00:05:37,003
the team's most extensive
and ambitious
114
00:05:37,003 --> 00:05:39,005
seismic operation to date,
115
00:05:39,005 --> 00:05:42,259
one that will allow them to
chart any underground anomalies
116
00:05:42,259 --> 00:05:45,512
or tunnels that might exist
on the entire eastern half
117
00:05:45,512 --> 00:05:47,305
of Oak Island.
118
00:05:49,349 --> 00:05:52,352
Look at all those receivers.
119
00:05:54,229 --> 00:05:56,523
This looks like a minefield.
120
00:05:56,523 --> 00:05:58,525
‐Yes.
‐How many are you gonna shoot?
121
00:05:58,525 --> 00:05:59,818
‐Tonight?
‐Yep.
122
00:05:59,818 --> 00:06:01,194
Ah, tough to say.
123
00:06:01,194 --> 00:06:03,196
Probably close to a thousand.
124
00:06:03,196 --> 00:06:05,740
‐Yeah, tonight.
Good to see you guys.
125
00:06:05,740 --> 00:06:08,910
Working once again
with Eagle Canada,
126
00:06:08,910 --> 00:06:11,121
the geophysical
exploration company
127
00:06:11,121 --> 00:06:12,914
that conducted previous surveys
128
00:06:12,914 --> 00:06:15,834
in the swamp and Money Pit
last year,
129
00:06:15,834 --> 00:06:20,964
this new test will involve a
record 18,000 explosive charges
130
00:06:20,964 --> 00:06:23,550
to map areas
never scanned before,
131
00:06:23,550 --> 00:06:26,386
starting with Smith's Cove
and the Cave‐In Pit.
132
00:06:28,179 --> 00:06:30,390
This sand could be
the manifestation
133
00:06:30,390 --> 00:06:32,726
‐of a bygone tunnel.
No way!
134
00:06:32,726 --> 00:06:36,813
It was here, during a recent
core‐drilling operation,
135
00:06:36,813 --> 00:06:38,815
that the team obtained evidence
136
00:06:38,815 --> 00:06:41,359
of one of the island's
legendary flood tunnels,
137
00:06:41,359 --> 00:06:43,987
believed to feed seawater
into the booby traps
138
00:06:43,987 --> 00:06:46,239
‐guarding the Money Pit.
‐
139
00:06:46,239 --> 00:06:48,742
The alignment is great, too.
140
00:06:48,742 --> 00:06:50,076
Uh, there's a line all the way
141
00:06:50,076 --> 00:06:51,578
from the center
of the U‐shaped structure.
142
00:06:51,578 --> 00:06:53,872
There's a perfect alignment all
the way back to the Money Pit.
143
00:06:53,872 --> 00:06:55,081
Wow.
144
00:06:58,043 --> 00:07:00,587
Here comes our next core.
145
00:07:00,587 --> 00:07:03,757
Unfortunately,
because the flood tunnel's
146
00:07:03,757 --> 00:07:05,967
precise angle of descent
is unknown,
147
00:07:05,967 --> 00:07:08,136
follow‐up efforts
to continue tracking it
148
00:07:08,136 --> 00:07:10,430
proved unsuccessful.
149
00:07:10,430 --> 00:07:12,098
There is some sand in this.
150
00:07:14,434 --> 00:07:17,270
But so far, nothing
that resembles what we believe
151
00:07:17,270 --> 00:07:18,772
was the tunnel.
152
00:07:22,067 --> 00:07:25,153
It is the team's hope
that tonight's seismic scanning
153
00:07:25,153 --> 00:07:28,239
will help them track the tunnel
all the way to the Money Pit,
154
00:07:28,239 --> 00:07:32,577
while avoiding invasive and
costly exploratory drilling.
155
00:07:32,577 --> 00:07:35,413
Wind's dying down.
You got to like that.
Well, you know what?
156
00:07:35,413 --> 00:07:37,248
Every evening is
kind of like that.
157
00:07:37,248 --> 00:07:39,626
That's one of the reasons why
we decided to shoot at night.
158
00:07:39,626 --> 00:07:40,960
If you guys are ready,
we can, uh...
159
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:42,295
‐We're ready.
‐We're gonna shoot
160
00:07:42,295 --> 00:07:43,963
the Cave‐In Pit here right away,
161
00:07:43,963 --> 00:07:46,049
so maybe that spot is
a good, uh...
162
00:07:46,049 --> 00:07:48,551
‐it's a safe spot
and you got a good view...
That'd be great.
163
00:07:48,551 --> 00:07:51,304
‐...on what's happening.
‐Where? Show... show us where.
Yeah.
164
00:07:51,304 --> 00:07:53,223
Due to the sound interference
165
00:07:53,223 --> 00:07:56,851
created by the team's search
activities during the day,
166
00:07:56,851 --> 00:07:59,187
the Eagle Canada team
has chosen to begin
167
00:07:59,187 --> 00:08:01,481
the seismic test at sunset.
168
00:08:01,481 --> 00:08:04,234
This will ensure
that the images captured
169
00:08:04,234 --> 00:08:07,529
are as clear and accurate
as possible.
170
00:08:07,529 --> 00:08:09,489
‐So, how many
you shooting? Five?
Just five.
171
00:08:09,489 --> 00:08:11,408
Five at a time, yeah.
‐Okay.
172
00:08:11,408 --> 00:08:13,493
How many geophones are active?
173
00:08:13,493 --> 00:08:14,994
Tonight, there'll be
6,000 active.
174
00:08:14,994 --> 00:08:16,413
It'll be interesting to see
175
00:08:16,413 --> 00:08:18,164
what the data shows here,
you know?
176
00:08:18,164 --> 00:08:19,374
We know there's
a hydraulic connection,
177
00:08:19,374 --> 00:08:21,167
‐and it might show up.
Yes.
178
00:08:21,167 --> 00:08:22,794
That's what we're doing.
That's what the exercise
179
00:08:22,794 --> 00:08:24,838
‐is all about.
‐Well, that and...
180
00:08:24,838 --> 00:08:26,506
the tunnel leading off of it
181
00:08:26,506 --> 00:08:28,425
‐towards the Money Pit.
Yeah, the 196. 181.
182
00:08:28,425 --> 00:08:29,634
Here we go.
183
00:08:29,634 --> 00:08:32,220
As each explosive charge,
184
00:08:32,220 --> 00:08:35,432
filled with 20 grams
of dynamite, is detonated,
185
00:08:35,432 --> 00:08:37,684
specialized geophone receivers
186
00:08:37,684 --> 00:08:40,687
will measure the sound waves
created by the blasts
187
00:08:40,687 --> 00:08:43,982
as they reflect off
possible voids or structures
188
00:08:43,982 --> 00:08:47,235
up to 300 feet deep
beneath the surface.
189
00:08:48,778 --> 00:08:51,197
Todd. 204. 174.
190
00:08:51,197 --> 00:08:52,490
Here it comes.
191
00:08:55,035 --> 00:08:56,828
Cool.
192
00:08:56,828 --> 00:08:59,289
80. 198. 179.
193
00:09:01,082 --> 00:09:03,043
Ian. 96. 175.
194
00:09:03,043 --> 00:09:04,794
Eagle Canada
195
00:09:04,794 --> 00:09:06,880
has done a fantastic job.
196
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:08,631
This shallow‐depth seismic,
197
00:09:08,631 --> 00:09:10,383
they're on the cutting edge
of this.
198
00:09:10,383 --> 00:09:12,093
They're pushing
the envelope here.
199
00:09:12,093 --> 00:09:13,511
This is not a small undertaking.
200
00:09:15,472 --> 00:09:17,474
‐You can feel that.
‐Oh, yeah.
201
00:09:19,809 --> 00:09:20,894
That's cool.
202
00:09:22,937 --> 00:09:25,023
202. 179.
203
00:09:26,983 --> 00:09:28,318
That one blew.
204
00:09:28,318 --> 00:09:30,236
Ryan. 202. 181.
205
00:09:31,488 --> 00:09:33,073
That was a good one.
206
00:09:33,073 --> 00:09:34,991
Ryan. 202. 183.
207
00:09:34,991 --> 00:09:36,910
It's stunning
the amount of work.
208
00:09:36,910 --> 00:09:39,079
I mean, it's a huge area.
209
00:09:39,079 --> 00:09:41,581
And the hope is that
it'll show us something.
210
00:09:41,581 --> 00:09:42,832
Yeah, it's real cool.
211
00:09:42,832 --> 00:09:44,084
You know, I'm eager and curious
212
00:09:44,084 --> 00:09:45,168
to see the results.
213
00:09:45,168 --> 00:09:46,294
It would be fantastic
214
00:09:46,294 --> 00:09:47,670
to verify the flood tunnel.
215
00:09:47,670 --> 00:09:49,464
If we find the flood tunnel,
216
00:09:49,464 --> 00:09:52,759
we can follow it‐‐ it's gonna go
directly to the Money Pit.
217
00:09:52,759 --> 00:09:54,594
We've been trying
to do that for...
218
00:09:54,594 --> 00:09:56,387
I don't know, ten years.
219
00:09:56,387 --> 00:09:59,099
Okay, the island
eventually has to...
220
00:09:59,099 --> 00:10:00,308
give up its secrets.
221
00:10:00,308 --> 00:10:02,352
I mean,
look what you're doing here.
222
00:10:02,352 --> 00:10:04,687
It can't keep
its secret anymore.
223
00:10:04,687 --> 00:10:06,106
It can't do it.
224
00:10:14,989 --> 00:10:18,201
It is an early morning
on Oak Island,
225
00:10:18,201 --> 00:10:22,038
but already the day's progress
is well underway.
226
00:10:22,038 --> 00:10:25,166
Having concluded
their seismic blasting efforts
227
00:10:25,166 --> 00:10:27,168
at Smith's Cove
and the Cave‐In Pit,
228
00:10:27,168 --> 00:10:29,087
the team from Eagle Canada
229
00:10:29,087 --> 00:10:32,549
is now preparing to continue
their massive operation
230
00:10:32,549 --> 00:10:34,926
in the area between
the triangle‐shaped swamp
231
00:10:34,926 --> 00:10:39,139
and the Money Pit‐‐
also known as the Highlands.
232
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,393
Meanwhile,
as members of the team continue
233
00:10:43,393 --> 00:10:47,272
to trace back the old sluiceway
in search of Shaft Nine...
234
00:10:47,272 --> 00:10:48,982
‐We left off
right about here, right?
‐Yeah.
235
00:10:48,982 --> 00:10:50,483
Peter Fornetti
236
00:10:50,483 --> 00:10:52,861
and metal detection expert
Gary Drayton
237
00:10:52,861 --> 00:10:55,155
arrive at Lot 32,
238
00:10:55,155 --> 00:10:59,075
located southwest
of the Oak Island swamp.
239
00:11:00,326 --> 00:11:02,537
So, I'll go
from the water's edge
240
00:11:02,537 --> 00:11:04,664
up to the top,
and we'll just hit it,
241
00:11:04,664 --> 00:11:06,833
‐zigzagging.
‐And I'll walk down the middle.
242
00:11:06,833 --> 00:11:09,919
All right, mate. Well,
hopefully, I'll keep you busy.
243
00:11:11,045 --> 00:11:13,006
After making a series
244
00:11:13,006 --> 00:11:16,384
of compelling new discoveries
in the swamp this year,
245
00:11:16,384 --> 00:11:18,928
including
a possible paved wharf,
246
00:11:18,928 --> 00:11:21,181
a mysterious
circular rock formation
247
00:11:21,181 --> 00:11:23,933
at the so‐called
Eye of the Swamp
248
00:11:23,933 --> 00:11:26,019
and a 200‐foot‐long anomaly
249
00:11:26,019 --> 00:11:28,771
revealed by last year's
seismic scanning,
250
00:11:28,771 --> 00:11:31,941
Gary is convinced
that while Rick and Marty
251
00:11:31,941 --> 00:11:33,693
wait for the necessary permits
252
00:11:33,693 --> 00:11:36,279
required to drain
and excavate the swamp,
253
00:11:36,279 --> 00:11:38,072
the surrounding area
254
00:11:38,072 --> 00:11:41,367
may still yield
a number of important clues.
255
00:11:44,537 --> 00:11:46,706
‐Is that something?
‐No.
256
00:11:55,048 --> 00:11:57,467
I'm getting something,
but it seems to be
257
00:11:57,467 --> 00:11:59,928
all over the place.
258
00:12:04,057 --> 00:12:06,893
‐Yeah, let's go for this, mate.
‐Okay.
259
00:12:10,355 --> 00:12:12,899
I have no idea what it is.
260
00:12:16,778 --> 00:12:19,072
I think you might have it out.
261
00:12:19,072 --> 00:12:20,531
‐Where?
‐Right on the top.
262
00:12:20,531 --> 00:12:22,325
‐Oh.
‐Yep.
263
00:12:24,285 --> 00:12:26,579
Dang, look at that.
264
00:12:26,579 --> 00:12:28,915
That's a nice little surprise.
265
00:12:28,915 --> 00:12:31,960
Yeah, this looks like, to me,
with that lip,
266
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,587
this is a typical decking spike
267
00:12:34,587 --> 00:12:37,674
with the lip
for trapping the wood.
268
00:12:37,674 --> 00:12:40,551
This is definitely 1700s, mate.
269
00:12:42,512 --> 00:12:44,764
This spike reminds me
270
00:12:44,764 --> 00:12:47,058
of the one that we found
in the swamp.
271
00:12:47,058 --> 00:12:49,477
I mean, this is cool
because we found
272
00:12:49,477 --> 00:12:51,771
‐a similar one in the area.
‐Mm‐hmm.
273
00:12:51,771 --> 00:12:53,940
An iron decking spike?
274
00:12:53,940 --> 00:12:55,650
From a ship?
275
00:12:55,650 --> 00:12:59,112
Possibly dating back
to the 1700s?
276
00:12:59,112 --> 00:13:02,782
‐Oh, yeah.
‐Oh, look at that. That's nice.
277
00:13:02,782 --> 00:13:05,368
That is old.
It's an handmade spike.
278
00:13:05,368 --> 00:13:07,120
Three years ago,
279
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:08,454
while metal‐detecting
280
00:13:08,454 --> 00:13:10,331
in the swamp, Gary Drayton,
281
00:13:10,331 --> 00:13:13,001
along with Jack Begley
and Alex Lagina,
282
00:13:13,001 --> 00:13:16,170
discovered a similar object.
283
00:13:16,170 --> 00:13:18,589
An object that was later
284
00:13:18,589 --> 00:13:22,635
identified by antiques expert
Dr. Lori Verderame
285
00:13:22,635 --> 00:13:26,806
as a decking spike from
a 17th‐century Spanish galleon.
286
00:13:26,806 --> 00:13:29,100
This spike has spoken volumes.
287
00:13:29,100 --> 00:13:32,020
The spike is called
the barrote type,
288
00:13:32,020 --> 00:13:35,315
which, in Spanish,
just means "iron bar."
289
00:13:35,315 --> 00:13:37,650
And a barrote type spike
290
00:13:37,650 --> 00:13:40,278
would have been similar
to a finishing nail
291
00:13:40,278 --> 00:13:42,822
on a Spanish galleon ship.
292
00:13:42,822 --> 00:13:44,157
‐Wow.
‐Oh, man.
293
00:13:46,409 --> 00:13:49,746
Could this iron decking spike
found near the swamp
294
00:13:49,746 --> 00:13:52,248
be further evidence
to support the theory
295
00:13:52,248 --> 00:13:54,375
that the swamp
was artificially created
296
00:13:54,375 --> 00:13:56,419
to hide a large sailing vessel
297
00:13:56,419 --> 00:14:00,173
along with the valuables
it contained?
298
00:14:00,173 --> 00:14:03,176
And, if so,
could it also be related
299
00:14:03,176 --> 00:14:05,261
to the massive
ship‐shaped anomaly
300
00:14:05,261 --> 00:14:09,807
revealed by seismic scanning
earlier this year?
301
00:14:09,807 --> 00:14:12,351
This is what
we want to be finding,
302
00:14:12,351 --> 00:14:13,936
‐ship spikes.
‐Mm‐hmm.
303
00:14:13,936 --> 00:14:16,522
That means there's been
some ships coming here.
304
00:14:16,522 --> 00:14:19,150
If a ship went down
in this area,
305
00:14:19,150 --> 00:14:20,485
there's probably some more.
306
00:14:20,485 --> 00:14:21,611
Yeah, it could be.
307
00:14:21,611 --> 00:14:23,237
This is fantastic, mate.
308
00:14:23,237 --> 00:14:24,864
This is what
we want to be finding.
309
00:14:24,864 --> 00:14:26,115
On to the next one.
310
00:14:26,115 --> 00:14:28,034
Off to a great start.
311
00:14:30,119 --> 00:14:33,122
Meanwhile,
back at the Money Pit site,
312
00:14:33,122 --> 00:14:36,250
the team continues to unearth
portions of the sluiceway
313
00:14:36,250 --> 00:14:39,087
in search of Shaft Nine.
314
00:14:39,087 --> 00:14:41,631
Starting to see wood?
Not yet.
315
00:14:41,631 --> 00:14:44,467
I don't know why
it hasn't hit it yet.
316
00:14:44,467 --> 00:14:46,177
You expect to see the top
by now.
317
00:14:46,177 --> 00:14:47,553
Yeah.
318
00:14:47,553 --> 00:14:49,680
So the question is,
are we off a little bit?
319
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:50,973
Well, did it move?
320
00:14:50,973 --> 00:14:52,934
Are‐are we deep enough?
321
00:14:52,934 --> 00:14:55,061
Maybe it's deeper.
322
00:14:57,855 --> 00:15:00,650
He's in the right spot.
323
00:15:03,611 --> 00:15:05,238
What's that there?
324
00:15:06,239 --> 00:15:08,366
Big stone, maybe?
325
00:15:08,366 --> 00:15:11,202
A rock.
Yeah.
326
00:15:11,202 --> 00:15:13,412
Doug! What are you thinking?
327
00:15:13,412 --> 00:15:15,331
Keep going or...?
328
00:15:15,331 --> 00:15:16,791
Can you get any deeper?
329
00:15:16,791 --> 00:15:18,543
I can go deeper, yeah.
330
00:15:33,432 --> 00:15:35,268
There's something.
331
00:15:36,269 --> 00:15:37,979
Oh, we got water, Billy!
332
00:15:37,979 --> 00:15:40,731
Oh, wow, look at that.
333
00:15:40,731 --> 00:15:42,942
‐We got water to that side.
Yeah.
334
00:15:42,942 --> 00:15:45,278
The ground keeps falling out
to that side.
335
00:15:46,696 --> 00:15:48,948
‐See the wood?
‐Yep.
336
00:15:48,948 --> 00:15:51,284
Is that wood on the side there?
337
00:15:51,284 --> 00:15:52,702
Look, right‐right there.
338
00:15:52,702 --> 00:15:55,329
Looks like it, Billy.
339
00:15:55,329 --> 00:15:57,832
I‐I'd dig into it.
340
00:15:57,832 --> 00:15:58,958
The whole way down or...?
341
00:15:58,958 --> 00:16:00,626
All the way down, yeah.
342
00:16:07,550 --> 00:16:09,510
‐Oh, look at that.
There it is.
343
00:16:09,510 --> 00:16:11,762
That's the top of it, probably.
344
00:16:11,762 --> 00:16:13,639
You got some wood in...
You got some wood in the bucket.
345
00:16:13,639 --> 00:16:14,849
In with the teeth.
‐Yeah.
346
00:16:14,849 --> 00:16:17,101
Does look like it.
347
00:16:17,101 --> 00:16:18,728
He brought some wood
right there.
348
00:16:18,728 --> 00:16:20,563
Yeah.
349
00:16:20,563 --> 00:16:22,648
It's too small for the tunnel.
350
00:16:22,648 --> 00:16:24,442
It's definitely got to be
the sluice.
351
00:16:25,693 --> 00:16:27,778
That looks like the size
of the sluice.
352
00:16:27,778 --> 00:16:29,864
I don't know if there's sense
taking any more out, is there?
353
00:16:29,864 --> 00:16:31,908
‐No. I think we're done here.
‐Yeah, I think we're done.
354
00:16:31,908 --> 00:16:33,492
He's‐he's taken it out.
355
00:16:33,492 --> 00:16:35,286
Yeah, I guess we know
where it is now.
356
00:16:35,286 --> 00:16:36,829
Yeah.
357
00:16:36,829 --> 00:16:38,831
I have coordinates on it,
so we're good, so...
358
00:16:38,831 --> 00:16:41,918
I've tagged it along the way
so we know where it's at now
359
00:16:41,918 --> 00:16:42,960
‐so it's easy to find.
‐Yeah.
360
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:44,921
So I can stake to it
at any point,
361
00:16:44,921 --> 00:16:46,339
‐and we can open it up.
Yeah.
362
00:16:46,339 --> 00:16:47,715
All right, let's go.
363
00:16:47,715 --> 00:16:49,800
Good work, guys. Good day.
364
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:51,636
Yeah.
Yeah.
365
00:16:53,638 --> 00:16:55,348
It's gone quiet.
366
00:16:58,351 --> 00:17:00,895
Yeah, let's stick
to the same line,
367
00:17:00,895 --> 00:17:03,856
and then we know
we've covered this area.
368
00:17:15,243 --> 00:17:17,036
Well, we went metal‐detecting,
369
00:17:17,036 --> 00:17:20,206
and we are detecting
a lot of metal, mate.
370
00:17:26,212 --> 00:17:27,922
I see rusty sand.
371
00:17:27,922 --> 00:17:29,840
We should be getting close.
372
00:17:31,884 --> 00:17:33,344
Let's take it easy on that.
373
00:17:33,344 --> 00:17:34,971
I see it.
374
00:17:36,556 --> 00:17:38,307
What the heck is that?
375
00:17:39,308 --> 00:17:41,894
Interesting.
376
00:17:41,894 --> 00:17:44,480
Wow.
Looks like one of those spikes
377
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:47,567
we pulled out near the slipway.
378
00:17:47,567 --> 00:17:49,860
That's all wrought iron.
379
00:17:49,860 --> 00:17:51,237
‐It is?
‐Yeah.
380
00:17:51,237 --> 00:17:53,030
This is hand‐forged.
381
00:17:53,030 --> 00:17:54,949
Yeah, it's got that grain...
382
00:17:54,949 --> 00:17:56,742
that wood grain look about it.
383
00:17:56,742 --> 00:17:57,994
Oh, yeah.
384
00:17:57,994 --> 00:18:00,413
‐It's an unusual shape.
‐Mm‐hmm.
385
00:18:00,413 --> 00:18:03,457
But the thing that stands out
to me is the length.
386
00:18:03,457 --> 00:18:07,086
Same as the slipway
cribbing spikes.
387
00:18:08,838 --> 00:18:10,214
A cribbing spike?
388
00:18:10,214 --> 00:18:12,508
Similar to those
found last year
389
00:18:12,508 --> 00:18:14,927
in the 18th‐century
wooden slipway
390
00:18:14,927 --> 00:18:18,222
or ship wharf unearthed
at Smith's Cove?
391
00:18:18,222 --> 00:18:20,224
Could it also be evidence
392
00:18:20,224 --> 00:18:22,685
of seafaring activity
at Oak Island
393
00:18:22,685 --> 00:18:25,062
prior to the discovery
of the Money Pit
394
00:18:25,062 --> 00:18:27,982
in 1795?
395
00:18:27,982 --> 00:18:31,485
We haven't found many
of these anywhere else.
396
00:18:31,485 --> 00:18:33,446
Slipway's the only place.
397
00:18:33,446 --> 00:18:35,197
So, what would they be used for?
398
00:18:35,197 --> 00:18:38,159
Well, cribbing,
which would have meant
399
00:18:38,159 --> 00:18:41,704
even, like, doing a dock
or a slipway.
400
00:18:41,704 --> 00:18:45,041
They would have just been
hammered into those logs.
401
00:18:45,041 --> 00:18:47,251
You know,
they had multiple uses.
402
00:18:47,251 --> 00:18:48,502
Mm‐hmm.
403
00:18:48,502 --> 00:18:50,880
What is all this stuff
doing here?
404
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:52,214
And I've heard stories,
405
00:18:52,214 --> 00:18:55,468
walls, gates in the swamp.
406
00:18:55,468 --> 00:18:58,137
‐It's for sure something
we should get cleaned up.
‐Yeah.
407
00:18:58,137 --> 00:19:00,556
PETER;
For the date, maybe we take that
to Carmen Legge.
408
00:19:00,556 --> 00:19:02,475
I mean, we have a lot of iron,
and we can
409
00:19:02,475 --> 00:19:04,518
‐figure out
if it's pre‐Money Pit.
‐Yeah.
410
00:19:04,518 --> 00:19:06,562
‐It's a good thing to know.
‐Good idea, mate.
411
00:19:06,562 --> 00:19:07,980
That's why we're tagging
and bagging it.
412
00:19:07,980 --> 00:19:09,315
Awesome.
413
00:19:09,315 --> 00:19:10,816
Good digging, mate.
414
00:19:10,816 --> 00:19:13,277
‐Let's keep going.
Okay.
415
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:17,490
Before another day
416
00:19:17,490 --> 00:19:19,992
comes to an end on Oak Island
417
00:19:19,992 --> 00:19:21,994
and as the seismic test
continues
418
00:19:21,994 --> 00:19:24,622
across the island's
entire eastern half...
419
00:19:26,999 --> 00:19:30,461
Rick Lagina,
his partner Craig Tester
420
00:19:30,461 --> 00:19:33,756
and other members of the team
meet in the war room
421
00:19:33,756 --> 00:19:36,467
with Canadian journalist
and author D'Arcy O'Connor
422
00:19:36,467 --> 00:19:38,886
and his daughter Miranda.
423
00:19:38,886 --> 00:19:41,222
Also joining them
via video conference
424
00:19:41,222 --> 00:19:43,474
is Rick's brother Marty
from his offices
425
00:19:43,474 --> 00:19:45,851
in Traverse City, Michigan.
426
00:19:45,851 --> 00:19:47,645
Hello, D'Arcy.
427
00:19:47,645 --> 00:19:48,854
‐Hello, Miranda.
Hi, Marty.
428
00:19:48,854 --> 00:19:50,564
‐How are you?
‐Been a while.
429
00:19:50,564 --> 00:19:52,483
‐Been 12 years, Marty.
‐
430
00:19:52,483 --> 00:19:54,318
I distinctly remember,
431
00:19:54,318 --> 00:19:56,362
D'Arcy, you giving a talk
432
00:19:56,362 --> 00:19:59,031
called "Debunking the
Debunkers." You remember that?
433
00:19:59,031 --> 00:20:01,200
‐ That's right, yeah.
‐Yeah.
434
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,452
And that's when
you introduced yourself,
435
00:20:03,452 --> 00:20:05,496
and that's why we were
calling you the Michigan Mob.
436
00:20:05,496 --> 00:20:07,707
‐That's right.
Because we had no idea.
437
00:20:07,707 --> 00:20:08,999
We knew you were from Michigan.
438
00:20:08,999 --> 00:20:10,501
‐That's it.
‐
439
00:20:10,501 --> 00:20:11,794
Here comes the Michigan Mob.
440
00:20:11,794 --> 00:20:13,546
I was keenly interested
441
00:20:13,546 --> 00:20:16,882
‐in what you have
to say today, too.
‐Oh, thank you.
442
00:20:16,882 --> 00:20:20,553
D'Arcy O'Connor
has spent over 50 years
443
00:20:20,553 --> 00:20:24,515
researching and writing
about the Oak Island mystery.
444
00:20:24,515 --> 00:20:28,394
His fascination
with the 224‐year treasure hunt
445
00:20:28,394 --> 00:20:32,022
began in 1970
while writing a feature
446
00:20:32,022 --> 00:20:34,066
for The Wall Street Journal.
447
00:20:34,066 --> 00:20:38,320
Since then, he has published
numerous books on the topic
448
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:41,907
and has conducted
extensive firsthand research,
449
00:20:41,907 --> 00:20:43,534
which includes
personal interviews
450
00:20:43,534 --> 00:20:45,703
with notable
Oak Island treasure hunters
451
00:20:45,703 --> 00:20:50,458
such as M. R. Chappell,
Fred Nolan and Dan Blankenship.
452
00:20:50,458 --> 00:20:53,586
He's one of
the early researchers
453
00:20:53,586 --> 00:20:56,213
who really did
something different,
454
00:20:56,213 --> 00:20:59,550
and that is he spoke to locals.
455
00:20:59,550 --> 00:21:01,469
He met these people,
he talked to these people,
456
00:21:01,469 --> 00:21:03,095
and his books
457
00:21:03,095 --> 00:21:06,932
are not only engaging
but highly informative,
458
00:21:06,932 --> 00:21:09,101
and he believes in his facts.
459
00:21:09,101 --> 00:21:11,228
Having recently published
460
00:21:11,228 --> 00:21:12,897
a new edition of his book,
461
00:21:12,897 --> 00:21:15,274
The Secret Treasure
of Oak Island,
462
00:21:15,274 --> 00:21:17,735
D'Arcy has come to share
information he believes
463
00:21:17,735 --> 00:21:19,779
could be valuable to the team.
464
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,866
I obviously was always curious
about the who,
465
00:21:23,866 --> 00:21:25,618
what, when, where,
why and so on.
466
00:21:25,618 --> 00:21:28,454
And so,
I looked at all those facts
467
00:21:28,454 --> 00:21:31,582
and asked myself, "Well,
who had this sort of treasure
468
00:21:31,582 --> 00:21:35,294
"that would be worth
all of that time,
469
00:21:35,294 --> 00:21:39,131
"all of that effort, and would
have the engineering ability
470
00:21:39,131 --> 00:21:41,050
and a large enough workforce?"
471
00:21:42,134 --> 00:21:44,386
I started doing a lot of reading
472
00:21:44,386 --> 00:21:46,806
about the Spanish conquest
in the New World,
473
00:21:46,806 --> 00:21:50,643
and then discovered
that their galleons went back
474
00:21:50,643 --> 00:21:52,686
loaded with, uh, goodies
475
00:21:52,686 --> 00:21:55,731
from, uh, South America,
Central America and Mexico.
476
00:21:57,983 --> 00:22:00,319
Following
Christopher Columbus's
477
00:22:00,319 --> 00:22:04,824
so‐called discovery
of the New World in 1492,
478
00:22:04,824 --> 00:22:09,620
the Spanish Empire began a vast
campaign of rapid colonization
479
00:22:09,620 --> 00:22:12,665
throughout North, Central
and South America.
480
00:22:12,665 --> 00:22:16,502
For three centuries,
Spanish conquistadors‐‐
481
00:22:16,502 --> 00:22:20,840
including Hernán Cortés
and Francisco Pizarro‐‐
482
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:24,176
seized the lands and enslaved
the native peoples,
483
00:22:24,176 --> 00:22:27,596
such as the Aztec
and Inca empires,
484
00:22:27,596 --> 00:22:30,182
plundering billions
of dollars worth of gold,
485
00:22:30,182 --> 00:22:34,186
silver and priceless gemstones
in the process.
486
00:22:34,186 --> 00:22:37,189
These treasures were then sent
back to Spain
487
00:22:37,189 --> 00:22:41,819
on large sailing vessels,
known as galleons.
488
00:22:41,819 --> 00:22:45,322
I found out
that after about 1525,
489
00:22:45,322 --> 00:22:47,825
these galleons discovered
the Gulf Stream.
490
00:22:47,825 --> 00:22:50,703
The Gulf Stream comes up
the North American coast
491
00:22:50,703 --> 00:22:53,038
and heads straight to Europe.
492
00:22:53,038 --> 00:22:57,877
And that route would take
those ships within 300 miles
493
00:22:57,877 --> 00:22:59,920
off the coast of Nova Scotia.
494
00:23:01,922 --> 00:23:02,923
Wow.
495
00:23:04,174 --> 00:23:06,176
Then I started reading
about, uh,
496
00:23:06,176 --> 00:23:08,220
various galleons
that didn't make it home.
497
00:23:09,346 --> 00:23:11,056
Hey, D'Arcy?
498
00:23:11,056 --> 00:23:13,225
‐Yeah.
‐How many ships disappeared,
499
00:23:13,225 --> 00:23:14,894
if you did the research?
500
00:23:14,894 --> 00:23:16,770
Uh, I came across at least 200.
501
00:23:16,770 --> 00:23:18,397
Wow.
502
00:23:18,397 --> 00:23:19,857
That disappeared on their way
503
00:23:19,857 --> 00:23:21,233
from Havana back to Europe.
504
00:23:21,233 --> 00:23:22,651
‐No kidding.
‐Oh, yeah.
505
00:23:22,651 --> 00:23:24,069
200 disappeared?
506
00:23:24,069 --> 00:23:28,157
Yeah, and, uh,
they carried large crews,
507
00:23:28,157 --> 00:23:30,409
as well as engineers
who had been
508
00:23:30,409 --> 00:23:34,038
opening up the new silver mines
in Bolivia and other places.
509
00:23:34,038 --> 00:23:37,541
So they had intelligent
people aboard,
510
00:23:37,541 --> 00:23:40,252
and so I came up with a theory
that maybe one
511
00:23:40,252 --> 00:23:42,880
of these ships got caught
in a storm as they were coming,
512
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:44,757
following the Gulf Stream,
513
00:23:44,757 --> 00:23:47,968
and was driven all the way north
514
00:23:47,968 --> 00:23:51,138
to a little island
in Nova Scotia.
515
00:23:52,181 --> 00:23:54,058
Maybe Oak Island.
516
00:23:54,058 --> 00:23:56,226
And this ship then
517
00:23:56,226 --> 00:23:59,104
finds itself being beached,
518
00:23:59,104 --> 00:24:02,024
full of plunder
from the New World.
519
00:24:02,024 --> 00:24:04,944
‐Mm‐hmm.
‐And to sail home
520
00:24:04,944 --> 00:24:08,113
would be prey
to privateers, pirates,
521
00:24:08,113 --> 00:24:10,282
or the navies of, uh,
522
00:24:10,282 --> 00:24:12,618
France and, uh, England.
523
00:24:12,618 --> 00:24:15,579
So, then they realized
524
00:24:15,579 --> 00:24:18,123
that, uh, they want
to hide it on this island,
525
00:24:18,123 --> 00:24:20,918
and they protect it
with flood tunnels.
526
00:24:20,918 --> 00:24:23,712
Well, D'Arcy,
in association with your theory,
527
00:24:23,712 --> 00:24:26,715
there's been a lot of Spanish
artifacts found on the island.
528
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,636
‐I believe this is a coin.
‐No!
529
00:24:30,636 --> 00:24:32,304
Although numerous British
530
00:24:32,304 --> 00:24:34,139
and French coins and artifacts
531
00:24:34,139 --> 00:24:37,017
have been found
on Oak Island over the years,
532
00:24:37,017 --> 00:24:39,353
the Laginas and their partners
have also unearthed
533
00:24:39,353 --> 00:24:43,357
compelling evidence of possible
Spanish activity on the island,
534
00:24:43,357 --> 00:24:47,444
dating back as early
as the 17th century.
535
00:24:47,444 --> 00:24:51,490
In addition to finding
an iron spike three years ago,
536
00:24:51,490 --> 00:24:53,617
which was identified
as similar to those used
537
00:24:53,617 --> 00:24:56,328
in the construction
of Spanish galleons,
538
00:24:56,328 --> 00:24:59,540
the team also found
a Spanish maravedi coin
539
00:24:59,540 --> 00:25:02,626
dated 1652.
540
00:25:02,626 --> 00:25:06,338
These finds corroborated
discoveries previously made
541
00:25:06,338 --> 00:25:09,341
by veteran Oak Island
treasure hunter Fred Nolan,
542
00:25:09,341 --> 00:25:12,511
who, after draining the swamp
in 1969,
543
00:25:12,511 --> 00:25:14,388
found what he believed
to be wooden parts
544
00:25:14,388 --> 00:25:16,015
from a Spanish galleon,
545
00:25:16,015 --> 00:25:19,476
including scuppers
and a portion of a mast.
546
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:23,647
It ties in with the time frame.
547
00:25:23,647 --> 00:25:25,691
It ties in with a lot
of the carbon dating.
548
00:25:25,691 --> 00:25:28,861
It's a hypothesis,
but it‐it fits a lot
549
00:25:28,861 --> 00:25:30,529
of what's been found
on Oak Island.
550
00:25:30,529 --> 00:25:32,531
The coconut fiber, for example,
551
00:25:32,531 --> 00:25:34,908
was commonly used
by the galleons
552
00:25:34,908 --> 00:25:38,037
as packing material
so the car‐cargo doesn't shift.
553
00:25:38,037 --> 00:25:41,331
Miranda, do you buy
into your father's theory?
554
00:25:41,331 --> 00:25:43,333
I mean, I've grown up
with that theory.
555
00:25:46,086 --> 00:25:48,047
No, I definitely think
something happened.
556
00:25:48,047 --> 00:25:49,882
I mean, there's something
very elaborate
557
00:25:49,882 --> 00:25:51,717
that happened on this island.
558
00:25:51,717 --> 00:25:54,386
Somebody went to great lengths
to do something.
559
00:25:54,386 --> 00:25:56,305
But you think it's still here?
560
00:25:56,305 --> 00:25:58,974
Oh, yeah. I don't think
you're chasing empty holes.
561
00:26:00,392 --> 00:26:03,062
D'Arcy's significance to me
562
00:26:03,062 --> 00:26:05,397
is that he's seen something
that he wants to investigate,
563
00:26:05,397 --> 00:26:07,149
and he is investigating.
564
00:26:07,149 --> 00:26:09,234
So, you know, I'm looking
forward to reading the book
565
00:26:09,234 --> 00:26:11,361
and, uh,
drawing my own conclusion.
566
00:26:11,361 --> 00:26:13,739
We just want to say
with all... all respect,
567
00:26:13,739 --> 00:26:16,700
which you have certainly earned,
a great big thank‐you.
568
00:26:16,700 --> 00:26:19,244
It's been our pleasure.
I want to see it solved, too.
569
00:26:19,244 --> 00:26:20,370
‐Yep.
‐Okay.
‐Thanks.
570
00:26:20,370 --> 00:26:21,580
Thanks, D'Arcy.
571
00:26:21,580 --> 00:26:22,956
Okay, thanks, Marty.
572
00:26:27,878 --> 00:26:29,713
One day after
the team's meeting
573
00:26:29,713 --> 00:26:32,591
with author and journalist
D'Arcy O'Connor,
574
00:26:32,591 --> 00:26:36,428
Alex Lagina and Gary Drayton
head some 20 miles
575
00:26:36,428 --> 00:26:39,932
north of Oak Island
to the Ross Farm Museum,
576
00:26:39,932 --> 00:26:42,935
located in the nearby town
of New Ross.
577
00:26:42,935 --> 00:26:44,436
They have arranged
578
00:26:44,436 --> 00:26:46,688
for blacksmithing expert
Carmen Legge
579
00:26:46,688 --> 00:26:49,024
to examine the possible
18th‐century decking spike
580
00:26:49,024 --> 00:26:51,235
found near the swamp,
581
00:26:51,235 --> 00:26:53,403
in the hope
that he can determine
582
00:26:53,403 --> 00:26:55,906
whether it was once part
of an ancient ship,
583
00:26:55,906 --> 00:26:58,117
such as a Spanish galleon.
584
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:01,787
Well, hello.
585
00:27:01,787 --> 00:27:03,580
Hey, Carmen.
586
00:27:03,580 --> 00:27:05,624
‐You, as well.
‐Hello, mate. How you doing?
587
00:27:05,624 --> 00:27:07,459
And you, mate.
588
00:27:07,459 --> 00:27:08,961
It's been going great.
We've been finding
589
00:27:08,961 --> 00:27:10,963
a ton of stuff on Oak Island.
590
00:27:10,963 --> 00:27:13,132
Yeah. This came from the beach
591
00:27:13,132 --> 00:27:15,008
just at the corner of the swamp.
592
00:27:15,008 --> 00:27:17,344
Lot 32 beach.
593
00:27:17,344 --> 00:27:21,515
And we don't normally find a lot
of iron on that beach,
594
00:27:21,515 --> 00:27:25,644
but recently,
we've been finding little things
595
00:27:25,644 --> 00:27:27,646
and we don't know what they are.
596
00:27:27,646 --> 00:27:29,314
Uh, we've got, like, an idea,
597
00:27:29,314 --> 00:27:31,316
but we figured
we'd bring them to you.
598
00:27:31,316 --> 00:27:32,943
Check 'em out.
See what they are.
599
00:27:36,113 --> 00:27:37,948
Okay, mate.
600
00:27:41,285 --> 00:27:44,413
Uh, we're hoping you can shed
some light on this one.
601
00:27:46,164 --> 00:27:48,584
Okay, mate.
Here's an interesting artifact.
602
00:27:49,668 --> 00:27:51,253
Yes.
603
00:27:52,838 --> 00:27:54,673
It's in bad condition
604
00:27:54,673 --> 00:27:57,759
because of the saltwater
corrosion off the beach.
605
00:28:13,525 --> 00:28:15,819
And what piqued our interest,
even though
606
00:28:15,819 --> 00:28:18,530
it's a corroded iron spike,
607
00:28:18,530 --> 00:28:20,365
it was found close to the swamp.
608
00:28:20,365 --> 00:28:23,118
And, of course, we're looking
for a boat in the swamp.
609
00:28:25,120 --> 00:28:28,206
And this is the type of thing
you would expect to find
610
00:28:28,206 --> 00:28:29,708
in the planking, in the decking.
611
00:28:33,795 --> 00:28:35,631
Yeah.
612
00:28:35,631 --> 00:28:37,341
Yeah, that's
the only one so far.
613
00:28:45,390 --> 00:28:47,142
Yes, but...
614
00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,570
A scupper... for shipbuilding?
615
00:28:58,570 --> 00:29:00,572
Could this iron spike
616
00:29:00,572 --> 00:29:02,699
be connected
to the wooden scuppers
617
00:29:02,699 --> 00:29:05,702
discovered in the swamp
nearly five decades ago
618
00:29:05,702 --> 00:29:08,914
by veteran Oak Island
treasure hunter Fred Nolan?
619
00:29:08,914 --> 00:29:11,083
Scuppers, which Fred believed
620
00:29:11,083 --> 00:29:15,212
were once part of an ancient
treasure ship, or galleon?
621
00:29:15,212 --> 00:29:17,965
And, if so,
could it be further evidence
622
00:29:17,965 --> 00:29:20,717
to support D'Arcy O'Connor's
theory that a fortune
623
00:29:20,717 --> 00:29:23,887
in Spanish gold and silver
was buried on Oak Island
624
00:29:23,887 --> 00:29:25,430
centuries ago?
625
00:29:25,430 --> 00:29:27,432
Would it be possible
in the condition it's in
626
00:29:27,432 --> 00:29:28,934
to put a date on that, or...?
627
00:29:39,903 --> 00:29:41,738
Yeah.
628
00:29:45,409 --> 00:29:47,786
With all the stuff
that we've now found
629
00:29:47,786 --> 00:29:51,248
in the swamp, I'm thinking
that we're in the right place.
630
00:29:51,248 --> 00:29:52,958
This is a place for boats
631
00:29:52,958 --> 00:29:55,794
to come in and unload,
hopefully, treasure.
632
00:29:55,794 --> 00:29:57,671
Well, so we got a deck spike.
633
00:29:57,671 --> 00:29:59,256
‐Yeah.
‐Um, and then a mystery item
634
00:29:59,256 --> 00:30:01,758
that we need to do
a little bit more work on.
635
00:30:01,758 --> 00:30:03,427
So we won't keep you any longer.
636
00:30:03,427 --> 00:30:06,263
‐Thank you for your time.
‐All right. All right, mate.
637
00:30:06,263 --> 00:30:07,639
Thanks for the I. D.
638
00:30:07,639 --> 00:30:08,974
Very good.
Cheers.
639
00:30:08,974 --> 00:30:10,976
Following his visit
640
00:30:10,976 --> 00:30:13,145
with blacksmithing expert
Carmen Legge...
641
00:30:13,145 --> 00:30:15,147
‐Hey, Gary.
‐Hey, mate.
642
00:30:15,147 --> 00:30:17,482
‐You think I'm gonna let you
have all the fun?
‐
643
00:30:17,482 --> 00:30:20,777
...Gary Drayton
arrives at the Money Pit area,
644
00:30:20,777 --> 00:30:22,988
where members
of the Oak Island team believe
645
00:30:22,988 --> 00:30:25,615
they have finally calculated
the most likely location
646
00:30:25,615 --> 00:30:27,784
for Shaft Nine.
647
00:30:27,784 --> 00:30:29,745
Well, it's always gratifying
648
00:30:29,745 --> 00:30:33,165
when one discovery leads
to another, leads to another.
649
00:30:33,165 --> 00:30:35,667
So we followed a trail,
650
00:30:35,667 --> 00:30:37,335
we tracked the sluice
to the tunnel,
651
00:30:37,335 --> 00:30:38,670
but now we're gonna hopefully
652
00:30:38,670 --> 00:30:39,838
dig the shaft itself.
653
00:30:39,838 --> 00:30:41,465
As soon as I heard you was...
654
00:30:41,465 --> 00:30:43,008
you was digging a big hole here,
655
00:30:43,008 --> 00:30:44,342
I'm like, "Got to be here."
656
00:30:44,342 --> 00:30:45,802
Well, we've got a lot
of dirt over
657
00:30:45,802 --> 00:30:47,471
on the other side there
if you want to, uh,
658
00:30:47,471 --> 00:30:49,014
start working on it.
659
00:30:49,014 --> 00:30:50,849
So, how far are you
digging down?
660
00:30:50,849 --> 00:30:53,769
How deep are you going
to expose this shaft?
661
00:30:53,769 --> 00:30:57,898
The shaft should, hopefully, be
relatively close to the surface.
662
00:30:57,898 --> 00:30:59,858
Well, one thing for sure‐‐
you got a lot of spoils
663
00:30:59,858 --> 00:31:01,526
‐for me to detect.
‐Exactly.
664
00:31:01,526 --> 00:31:03,361
‐
Well, mate, I'm gonna
665
00:31:03,361 --> 00:31:05,489
get around that side
so I'm nice and safe,
666
00:31:05,489 --> 00:31:08,992
and I'll tell... I'll give you
a shout if I find anything.
667
00:31:08,992 --> 00:31:11,828
‐Okay.
‐See you in a bit.
668
00:31:11,828 --> 00:31:14,831
As Billy Gerhardt continues
to dig using the excavator,
669
00:31:14,831 --> 00:31:17,542
Gary Drayton
will scan the spoils
670
00:31:17,542 --> 00:31:19,544
for any important clues
or artifacts
671
00:31:19,544 --> 00:31:21,755
that might be unearthed
in the process.
672
00:31:26,384 --> 00:31:27,719
Hey, guys.
673
00:31:27,719 --> 00:31:30,889
Charles, how are things looking?
674
00:31:30,889 --> 00:31:33,350
We dug this trench here,
but we didn't find anything,
675
00:31:33,350 --> 00:31:36,228
so we're gonna move over
a little bit to the south here.
676
00:31:36,228 --> 00:31:38,897
The last crew that really knew
677
00:31:38,897 --> 00:31:40,899
where the Money Pit was
was in 1867.
678
00:31:40,899 --> 00:31:43,401
After that,
it was just, uh, their guess
679
00:31:43,401 --> 00:31:44,861
at what the Money Pit was.
680
00:31:44,861 --> 00:31:47,614
‐This pit was dug in 1863.
‐Okay.
681
00:31:47,614 --> 00:31:50,408
And they tunneled over
to the Money Pit 100 feet away.
682
00:31:50,408 --> 00:31:53,370
So, if we can define
the parameters of this pit,
683
00:31:53,370 --> 00:31:56,373
then we can be reasonably sure
the Money Pit's
684
00:31:56,373 --> 00:31:57,415
about 100 feet away,
the original one.
685
00:31:57,415 --> 00:31:58,792
Yeah.
686
00:32:02,587 --> 00:32:05,173
I'm confused as to why
we haven't hit wood.
687
00:32:07,092 --> 00:32:09,386
I think he needs
to back up a little bit.
688
00:32:09,386 --> 00:32:11,138
I think it's
right under his tracks.
689
00:32:16,518 --> 00:32:18,687
Nothing so far.
690
00:32:23,942 --> 00:32:26,027
‐
Whoa.
691
00:32:29,447 --> 00:32:31,533
Hey, Billy!
There's wood there!
692
00:32:40,667 --> 00:32:43,211
Near the Money Pit area,
693
00:32:43,211 --> 00:32:45,505
members of the Oak Island team
694
00:32:45,505 --> 00:32:47,299
have called Rick Lagina
and Craig Tester
695
00:32:47,299 --> 00:32:49,342
to see what they hope
will be one
696
00:32:49,342 --> 00:32:52,095
of this year's most
important discoveries.
697
00:32:52,095 --> 00:32:54,639
Thanks to information
supplied to them
698
00:32:54,639 --> 00:32:56,850
by veteran treasure hunter
Dan Henskee,
699
00:32:56,850 --> 00:32:59,352
they have unearthed
what they believe to be
700
00:32:59,352 --> 00:33:04,024
an 1863 searcher structure
known as Shaft Nine.
701
00:33:04,024 --> 00:33:06,693
I'm looking forward
to seeing this thing.
Yeah.
702
00:33:06,693 --> 00:33:08,820
Wow.
703
00:33:08,820 --> 00:33:10,989
Look at the size of that thing.
704
00:33:17,829 --> 00:33:19,581
So, where are we?
705
00:33:19,581 --> 00:33:22,042
We have one of the uphill
corners, I think.
706
00:33:22,042 --> 00:33:24,544
I cleared over there, so it
should be further that way.
707
00:33:24,544 --> 00:33:26,379
I would dig all four out.
Why not?
708
00:33:26,379 --> 00:33:27,923
‐Yeah.
Yeah.
709
00:33:27,923 --> 00:33:29,841
We'll want to measure it,
that's for sure.
710
00:33:29,841 --> 00:33:31,426
‐You know?
‐Well...
711
00:33:31,426 --> 00:33:33,303
It's one way to corroborate,
you know,
712
00:33:33,303 --> 00:33:35,096
‐if it really is Nine.
‐Right.
713
00:33:35,096 --> 00:33:37,265
Okay.
Well, we're getting in your way.
714
00:33:37,265 --> 00:33:39,517
Yeah.
Yep.
715
00:33:52,614 --> 00:33:54,741
Is that wood stuck in...?
716
00:33:54,741 --> 00:33:57,744
He's got a ton of...
Hey. Tell him to stop. Stop.
717
00:33:57,744 --> 00:33:59,871
What?
He just drug
a ton of wood.
718
00:33:59,871 --> 00:34:01,581
Right here.
719
00:34:01,581 --> 00:34:03,959
That looks like
it's part of the shaft.
720
00:34:06,878 --> 00:34:08,588
The shaft,
721
00:34:08,588 --> 00:34:10,632
it should be 6 by 12.
722
00:34:10,632 --> 00:34:12,092
So it will be interesting to see
723
00:34:12,092 --> 00:34:13,510
what the sizes
turn out to be on this.
724
00:34:13,510 --> 00:34:14,719
Yeah.
725
00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:17,472
I think this is a wall here.
726
00:34:17,472 --> 00:34:18,932
Yeah.
727
00:34:18,932 --> 00:34:20,433
There's big timber here,
728
00:34:20,433 --> 00:34:21,893
but there's wood
coming out of here,
729
00:34:21,893 --> 00:34:23,687
and there's
a big post right here.
730
00:34:23,687 --> 00:34:25,397
Yeah. Look at that.
So I don't know if this
731
00:34:25,397 --> 00:34:28,441
is an outside wall and that's
an inside corner or what,
732
00:34:28,441 --> 00:34:30,443
but you can take
some off of here
733
00:34:30,443 --> 00:34:32,445
‐and off this bank right here...
‐And this.
734
00:34:32,445 --> 00:34:34,281
...to this depth to this height.
735
00:34:34,281 --> 00:34:36,658
Yeah. Both sides of that wall.
736
00:34:53,925 --> 00:34:55,844
I think that might be
the corner.
737
00:34:55,844 --> 00:34:57,804
I'd say you're right.
738
00:34:57,804 --> 00:34:59,264
I'd say it's a corner.
739
00:34:59,264 --> 00:35:01,891
You guys want a tape measure?
740
00:35:01,891 --> 00:35:03,184
Yep.
741
00:35:03,184 --> 00:35:04,936
Coming in.
742
00:35:06,187 --> 00:35:07,606
Your 6‐by‐12 measurement
743
00:35:07,606 --> 00:35:09,357
may not be too far off, Doug.
744
00:35:09,357 --> 00:35:11,192
It looks extremely well built.
745
00:35:11,192 --> 00:35:12,944
12 feet inside.
746
00:35:12,944 --> 00:35:14,446
Is it? That is huge.
747
00:35:17,157 --> 00:35:19,451
Now we got the edge of it here,
6 by 12.
748
00:35:19,451 --> 00:35:22,704
Well, we got those
1850s accounts that say
749
00:35:22,704 --> 00:35:25,040
that all the open shafts
were 6 by 12.
750
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:27,334
‐
Let's keep digging.
751
00:35:27,334 --> 00:35:29,294
Bill, just keep pecking away.
752
00:35:29,294 --> 00:35:30,587
Yeah.
753
00:35:32,922 --> 00:35:35,467
Although the team
is encouraged by the fact
754
00:35:35,467 --> 00:35:38,136
that the wooden structure they
have uncovered appears to match
755
00:35:38,136 --> 00:35:41,139
the historical dimensions
of Shaft Nine,
756
00:35:41,139 --> 00:35:44,476
they are also understandably
wary, as, over the centuries,
757
00:35:44,476 --> 00:35:47,020
the Money Pit has been the site
758
00:35:47,020 --> 00:35:49,731
of more than 40
tunneling operations.
759
00:35:49,731 --> 00:35:51,650
Want to try and expose
a little more of it, or...?
760
00:35:51,650 --> 00:35:53,985
This is the edge of it here.
It must go back this way more.
761
00:35:53,985 --> 00:35:55,403
Well, I can use
the other machine
762
00:35:55,403 --> 00:35:57,113
‐to get to the other side.
‐Yeah.
763
00:36:03,995 --> 00:36:07,165
It's really cool whenever we
unearth one of these shafts.
764
00:36:07,165 --> 00:36:09,376
Rick and I did one
a couple years ago,
765
00:36:09,376 --> 00:36:11,586
and now Rick basically
did this one.
766
00:36:11,586 --> 00:36:14,047
Every time I look down
into a pit like that
767
00:36:14,047 --> 00:36:17,175
and see those massive timbers
and see how hard it was
768
00:36:17,175 --> 00:36:19,302
to do with an excavator,
769
00:36:19,302 --> 00:36:21,930
and then realize it goes down
another what, 90 feet?
770
00:36:21,930 --> 00:36:23,473
‐11 stories.
‐Yeah.
771
00:36:23,473 --> 00:36:25,016
And it's timbers and...
772
00:36:25,016 --> 00:36:27,018
I mean, I was in awe
of what these people did,
773
00:36:27,018 --> 00:36:28,561
and these were the searchers.
774
00:36:28,561 --> 00:36:30,689
Forget about
the original depositors.
775
00:36:30,689 --> 00:36:33,441
‐Find anything yet?
‐I think we're
getting closer now.
776
00:36:35,860 --> 00:36:37,195
The tunnel that goes down
into the sluice
777
00:36:37,195 --> 00:36:38,738
goes through
that bank right there.
778
00:36:38,738 --> 00:36:41,241
Where's it going to appear,
though, Scott? In that way?
779
00:36:41,241 --> 00:36:43,118
‐Diagonally like this.
‐Yeah. Kind of like this.
780
00:36:48,748 --> 00:36:51,543
Whoa!
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
781
00:36:51,543 --> 00:36:53,586
Water's coming in now.
Wow, look at that.
782
00:36:53,586 --> 00:36:55,380
Yeah. There's water coming in
over in the bank,
783
00:36:55,380 --> 00:36:57,298
right here, coming down through.
784
00:36:57,298 --> 00:36:59,134
That's a crossbeam right there.
785
00:36:59,134 --> 00:37:00,719
We found the tunnel!
786
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:02,345
Yep. There it is.
787
00:37:02,345 --> 00:37:04,514
The team has finally unearthed
788
00:37:04,514 --> 00:37:07,475
a connection linking the shaft
to the sluiceway.
789
00:37:07,475 --> 00:37:09,686
This proves
they have successfully
790
00:37:09,686 --> 00:37:12,021
discovered Shaft Nine.
791
00:37:16,609 --> 00:37:18,236
Not too often you see a tunnel,
792
00:37:18,236 --> 00:37:19,779
you know, a horizontal tunnel
like that, right?
793
00:37:19,779 --> 00:37:20,947
Yeah. No.
794
00:37:20,947 --> 00:37:23,408
And you can see the‐the beams,
795
00:37:23,408 --> 00:37:25,326
crossbeams on top of it
right now, so...
796
00:37:25,326 --> 00:37:27,537
Yeah.
This here was nice
to see, though,
797
00:37:27,537 --> 00:37:30,331
because now we know the tunnel
comes back to this shaft.
798
00:37:30,331 --> 00:37:31,583
‐Right.
‐So, beyond a doubt,
799
00:37:31,583 --> 00:37:32,959
it's the one Dan Henskee
read about.
800
00:37:32,959 --> 00:37:35,628
It's an aha moment
801
00:37:35,628 --> 00:37:37,005
in the history of Oak Island.
802
00:37:37,005 --> 00:37:39,132
We're staring at a shaft
803
00:37:39,132 --> 00:37:41,426
that was done over
a century and a half ago.
804
00:37:41,426 --> 00:37:42,927
It's incredible to stand there
805
00:37:42,927 --> 00:37:44,471
and look at what
they accomplished.
806
00:37:44,471 --> 00:37:46,431
They persevered.
They were committed.
807
00:37:46,431 --> 00:37:48,516
They wanted answers.
808
00:37:48,516 --> 00:37:49,768
We do, too.
809
00:37:49,768 --> 00:37:51,686
So, hopefully, their work
810
00:37:51,686 --> 00:37:55,106
will allow us to finally do
what they sought to do
811
00:37:55,106 --> 00:37:57,066
find the Money Pit,
812
00:37:57,066 --> 00:37:59,694
understand what's there
and hopefully retrieve it.
813
00:37:59,694 --> 00:38:02,113
This information
is critically important
814
00:38:02,113 --> 00:38:04,407
to coming to an understanding
of what me might do here
815
00:38:04,407 --> 00:38:06,367
in the Money Pit
in the near future.
816
00:38:06,367 --> 00:38:08,244
The best information
is physical evidence.
817
00:38:08,244 --> 00:38:09,621
‐Physical information
that we have.
‐Absolutely.
818
00:38:09,621 --> 00:38:11,247
‐Yeah.
‐We got to take this data
819
00:38:11,247 --> 00:38:13,166
and bring it back to the
research center and analyze it.
820
00:38:13,166 --> 00:38:14,292
Have Steve input it.
821
00:38:14,292 --> 00:38:15,710
Let's go do that right now,
822
00:38:15,710 --> 00:38:17,337
and maybe before
the end of the day
823
00:38:17,337 --> 00:38:18,797
we'll have an "X" on the spot.
824
00:38:18,797 --> 00:38:20,590
Okay. Sounds good.
825
00:38:24,636 --> 00:38:26,137
Following their discovery
826
00:38:26,137 --> 00:38:28,431
of Shaft Nine
at the Money Pit site...
827
00:38:29,682 --> 00:38:32,268
Certainly are done.
828
00:38:32,268 --> 00:38:34,187
...Rick Lagina, Jack Begley
829
00:38:34,187 --> 00:38:36,731
and historian Doug Crowell
meet once again
830
00:38:36,731 --> 00:38:38,566
with the team
from Eagle Canada,
831
00:38:38,566 --> 00:38:41,820
after receiving word
that the seismic test
832
00:38:41,820 --> 00:38:44,197
across the island's
eastern drumlin‐‐
833
00:38:44,197 --> 00:38:46,825
or eastern half of the island‐‐
has been completed.
834
00:38:48,243 --> 00:38:50,620
I‐I know it's been a long haul.
835
00:38:50,620 --> 00:38:52,413
20,000 shots, you know,
836
00:38:52,413 --> 00:38:54,207
I mean, that‐that's incredible.
837
00:38:54,207 --> 00:38:56,334
Oh, yeah. No. The guys worked
really hard, you know what?
838
00:38:56,334 --> 00:38:57,710
They did.
‐And everything went good,
839
00:38:57,710 --> 00:38:59,045
but the guys are ready
to go home now.
840
00:38:59,045 --> 00:39:01,005
Yeah. I'm sure they are.
841
00:39:01,005 --> 00:39:04,175
It was a beehive of activity on
the eastern drumlin this year.
842
00:39:04,175 --> 00:39:06,845
‐Your guys were everywhere.
‐Uh‐huh.
843
00:39:06,845 --> 00:39:09,055
I can't wait to see
what results you get.
844
00:39:09,055 --> 00:39:10,265
Oh, yeah. Yeah.
845
00:39:10,265 --> 00:39:12,725
The one drawback, if you will,
846
00:39:12,725 --> 00:39:15,311
is there's this lag time
between data acquisition
847
00:39:15,311 --> 00:39:17,438
and processing the data.
848
00:39:17,438 --> 00:39:18,982
We're like this, right?
849
00:39:18,982 --> 00:39:21,943
‐Waiting to‐to drill it.
‐Yeah. No, for sure.
850
00:39:21,943 --> 00:39:24,112
Although Rick and the team
851
00:39:24,112 --> 00:39:26,072
are excited and hopeful
852
00:39:26,072 --> 00:39:27,782
that the new seismic test
853
00:39:27,782 --> 00:39:29,367
could reveal significant data
854
00:39:29,367 --> 00:39:31,077
about what really exists
855
00:39:31,077 --> 00:39:33,037
deep below
the island's surface,
856
00:39:33,037 --> 00:39:35,081
they will have
to wait several weeks
857
00:39:35,081 --> 00:39:38,042
for the data
to be fully processed.
858
00:39:38,042 --> 00:39:41,337
Eagle Canada, they've done
a tremendous job.
859
00:39:41,337 --> 00:39:43,047
They've taken all the shots.
860
00:39:43,047 --> 00:39:45,341
I think they're very happy,
and as are we.
861
00:39:45,341 --> 00:39:47,594
And now the proof's
in the pudding, right?
862
00:39:47,594 --> 00:39:49,220
Can they show us something?
863
00:39:49,220 --> 00:39:51,097
I think of particular interest,
of course,
864
00:39:51,097 --> 00:39:53,141
is that supposed
tunnel connection
865
00:39:53,141 --> 00:39:55,518
between the Money Pit
and the Highland anomalies,
866
00:39:55,518 --> 00:39:57,145
and the other area of interest
867
00:39:57,145 --> 00:40:00,064
is Smith's Cove,
Cave‐In Pit area.
868
00:40:00,064 --> 00:40:01,649
Are there tunnels there?
869
00:40:01,649 --> 00:40:03,776
Hopefully, it'll show something.
870
00:40:04,903 --> 00:40:06,863
How shallow can we see?
871
00:40:06,863 --> 00:40:09,073
You know what,
starting at ten feet.
872
00:40:09,073 --> 00:40:10,491
Uh, really good at ten feet.
873
00:40:10,491 --> 00:40:13,036
And then pretty much down to...?
874
00:40:13,036 --> 00:40:14,871
Oh, yeah. Down to‐to 300 feet.
875
00:40:14,871 --> 00:40:17,248
But our zone of interest
is really, like,
876
00:40:17,248 --> 00:40:19,542
from that ten feet
to that 100 feet.
877
00:40:19,542 --> 00:40:22,295
You know,
if there's "X" marks the spot,
878
00:40:22,295 --> 00:40:24,422
that would be the best scenario,
but look,
879
00:40:24,422 --> 00:40:27,383
just get us some targets
that are worth investigating,
880
00:40:27,383 --> 00:40:29,969
and we will do the hard work
to investigate them.
881
00:40:29,969 --> 00:40:32,096
‐Excellent. Sounds like a deal.
‐All right. All right.
882
00:40:32,096 --> 00:40:34,015
‐Please tell everybody
thank you.
‐I will.
883
00:40:34,015 --> 00:40:35,350
Appreciate it.
Thank you. Bye.
884
00:40:35,350 --> 00:40:36,893
All right. Take care.
885
00:40:36,893 --> 00:40:39,520
After a week that saw Rick,
886
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:42,482
Marty and the team
make promising discoveries
887
00:40:42,482 --> 00:40:45,568
both at the swamp
and the Money Pit site,
888
00:40:45,568 --> 00:40:47,570
they are more convinced
than ever
889
00:40:47,570 --> 00:40:49,447
that they could soon find
the place
890
00:40:49,447 --> 00:40:51,282
that has been lost
to treasure hunters
891
00:40:51,282 --> 00:40:53,701
for more than six decades
892
00:40:53,701 --> 00:40:56,537
the original treasure shaft,
893
00:40:56,537 --> 00:40:58,289
first discovered
by Daniel McGinnis
894
00:40:58,289 --> 00:41:01,793
and his friends in 1795.
895
00:41:01,793 --> 00:41:04,295
But as they move forward,
896
00:41:04,295 --> 00:41:05,838
will they be able to avoid
897
00:41:05,838 --> 00:41:07,465
the booby‐trapped
flood tunnels?
898
00:41:07,465 --> 00:41:11,135
And if so, what then?
899
00:41:11,135 --> 00:41:13,388
Will they find
an underground chamber
900
00:41:13,388 --> 00:41:15,390
filled with gold and jewels?
901
00:41:15,390 --> 00:41:17,392
Historical documents?
902
00:41:17,392 --> 00:41:19,769
Priceless artifacts?
903
00:41:19,769 --> 00:41:23,439
Or will they find the reason
that something was buried
904
00:41:23,439 --> 00:41:26,067
on Oak Island
more than two centuries ago,
905
00:41:26,067 --> 00:41:27,944
and buried so deep,
906
00:41:27,944 --> 00:41:32,156
is because it was not meant
to be disturbed?
907
00:41:33,908 --> 00:41:36,452
Next time
on The Curse of Oak Island...
908
00:41:36,452 --> 00:41:38,329
Here we go.
Floodgate's about to open.
909
00:41:38,329 --> 00:41:40,039
Here it goes!
910
00:41:40,039 --> 00:41:42,000
I think it's time
to get our feet wet.
911
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,210
‐Let's do it.
‐There's a structure down there.
912
00:41:44,210 --> 00:41:46,170
It's ten feet under water.
913
00:41:46,170 --> 00:41:47,922
We found Nine.
I think this disturbed area
914
00:41:47,922 --> 00:41:50,174
in this photo
might be Shaft Two.
915
00:41:50,174 --> 00:41:52,176
Steve can triangulate
and see where it intersects.
916
00:41:52,176 --> 00:41:53,803
"X" marks the spot.
917
00:41:53,803 --> 00:41:55,346
Look at all the wood.
‐Oh, look at the wood.
918
00:41:55,346 --> 00:41:56,723
Looks like we're in the middle
of a shaft.
919
00:41:56,723 --> 00:41:58,057
Ooh! Look at that.
920
00:41:58,057 --> 00:41:59,225
I don't know why this is here.
921
00:41:59,225 --> 00:42:00,560
I don't know what this would be.
922
00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:02,103
This might be bigger
than we thought.
