1
00:00:01,502 --> 00:00:03,545
Tonight, on
The Curse of Oak Island...
2
00:00:03,545 --> 00:00:05,339
We've got a target here, Jack.
3
00:00:05,339 --> 00:00:06,924
Look at that.
4
00:00:06,924 --> 00:00:08,759
What the heck is that?
5
00:00:08,759 --> 00:00:10,928
Does it look old to you?
6
00:00:13,639 --> 00:00:16,850
‐That's what
we're looking for in the swamp.
‐Very cool.
7
00:00:16,850 --> 00:00:19,436
What is that, mate?
That looks like a tunnel!
8
00:00:19,436 --> 00:00:21,897
There's a massive structure
going on here.
9
00:00:21,897 --> 00:00:23,690
What have you found now, Jack?
10
00:00:31,114 --> 00:00:34,743
There is an islandin the North Atlantic
11
00:00:34,743 --> 00:00:38,288
where people have been lookingfor an incredible treasure
12
00:00:38,288 --> 00:00:41,542
for more than 200 years.
13
00:00:41,542 --> 00:00:44,628
So far, they have founda stone slab
14
00:00:44,628 --> 00:00:47,297
with strange symbolscarved into it,
15
00:00:47,297 --> 00:00:50,133
mysterious fragmentsof human bone,
16
00:00:50,133 --> 00:00:53,971
and a lead crosswhose origin may stretch back
17
00:00:53,971 --> 00:00:56,473
to the daysof the Knights Templar.
18
00:00:56,473 --> 00:01:00,978
To date, six men have diedtrying to solve the mystery.
19
00:01:02,020 --> 00:01:04,064
And, according to legend,
20
00:01:04,064 --> 00:01:07,234
one more will have to die
21
00:01:07,234 --> 00:01:10,862
before the treasurecan be found.
22
00:01:36,096 --> 00:01:38,682
Let's go find this ship!
23
00:01:38,682 --> 00:01:41,435
For brothersRick and Marty Lagina
24
00:01:41,435 --> 00:01:44,021
and their team,a new day full of hope
25
00:01:44,021 --> 00:01:46,648
and anticipationof a major discovery
26
00:01:46,648 --> 00:01:49,776
is just beginningat the Oak Island swamp.
27
00:01:49,776 --> 00:01:51,611
So here we are.
28
00:01:51,611 --> 00:01:53,613
This is the spot.
29
00:01:53,613 --> 00:01:56,116
‐We're gonna dig down and trench
to 15 feet.
‐‐
30
00:01:56,116 --> 00:01:57,784
And I'm hoping
this would be where
31
00:01:57,784 --> 00:01:59,619
I think a ship anomaly
may actually be.
32
00:01:59,619 --> 00:02:03,457
Well, we're about to find out,
mate. I hope you're right.
33
00:02:03,457 --> 00:02:06,418
- ‐Look.
- What is that?
34
00:02:06,418 --> 00:02:09,921
One week ago, whilemetal detecting in the area‐‐
35
00:02:09,921 --> 00:02:13,300
the same area where,earlier this year,
36
00:02:13,300 --> 00:02:15,969
seismic scanning revealedevidence of what appears
37
00:02:15,969 --> 00:02:18,305
to be a ship‐shaped anomaly‐‐
38
00:02:18,305 --> 00:02:22,684
Rick Lagina, along with metaldetection expert Gary Drayton
39
00:02:22,684 --> 00:02:24,978
and Jack Begley,made what they hope
40
00:02:24,978 --> 00:02:28,398
might bea game‐changing discovery.
41
00:02:28,398 --> 00:02:32,653
Not only did they unearththe remains of an iron strap‐‐
42
00:02:32,653 --> 00:02:36,073
one that blacksmithing expertCarmen Legge identified
43
00:02:36,073 --> 00:02:40,243
as possibly coming from an18th century Spanish galleon.
44
00:02:43,372 --> 00:02:45,916
‐Wow.
They alsofound evidence
45
00:02:45,916 --> 00:02:49,378
that the strap may have beencaught in some sort of fire,
46
00:02:49,378 --> 00:02:53,674
one suggesting thatthe ship it was on was burned,
47
00:02:53,674 --> 00:02:57,219
and then sunk,somewhere in the area.
48
00:02:57,219 --> 00:02:59,346
A burnt ship in the swamp, Gary?
49
00:02:59,346 --> 00:03:02,015
Yeah, and that's how you
hide a ship. You burn it.
50
00:03:02,015 --> 00:03:03,517
Yeah.
51
00:03:15,070 --> 00:03:17,406
This is still
52
00:03:17,406 --> 00:03:20,992
majority unexplored over on
the western side of the swamp.
53
00:03:20,992 --> 00:03:24,079
And if we're trenching
this whole area, though,
54
00:03:24,079 --> 00:03:26,039
there's a good chance
we'll find something.
55
00:03:26,039 --> 00:03:27,624
- Yeah.
- Something.
56
00:03:27,624 --> 00:03:29,835
‐I believe we will.
‐Me, too.
57
00:03:35,257 --> 00:03:37,217
‐Hey, Rick.
‐Hey.
58
00:03:37,217 --> 00:03:38,802
What does it look like?
59
00:03:38,802 --> 00:03:41,221
It's pretty hard.
60
00:03:41,221 --> 00:03:45,058
Very dry, too, towards the top,
which is not really a surprise.
61
00:03:52,566 --> 00:03:55,735
This is the heart
of the anomaly?
62
00:03:55,735 --> 00:03:57,779
Yeah, the top portion of it.
63
00:03:57,779 --> 00:03:59,865
So this is the shallower end
then?
64
00:03:59,865 --> 00:04:01,533
Yes. Exactly.
65
00:04:03,785 --> 00:04:07,080
Because the ship‐shaped anomaly
66
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,624
identifiedby the seismic scan appears
67
00:04:09,624 --> 00:04:13,503
to be buried at an angle‐‐with one end some 55 feet deep
68
00:04:13,503 --> 00:04:16,256
and the otheronly 15 feet deep‐‐
69
00:04:16,256 --> 00:04:18,633
the team is hopingto find evidence of it
70
00:04:18,633 --> 00:04:21,094
with their 36‐ton excavator.
71
00:04:32,773 --> 00:04:35,609
- Hey. Hey, hey, hey!
- Look at that!
72
00:04:35,609 --> 00:04:37,944
Right there.
73
00:04:39,571 --> 00:04:41,323
- Right there.
- Yeah, I see that.
74
00:04:41,323 --> 00:04:44,242
- ‐Can you get it out?
- Looks like a wood beam.
75
00:04:44,242 --> 00:04:45,952
I‐I'm not gonna get it now.
76
00:04:45,952 --> 00:04:47,412
We're gonna have
to have Billy pull it out.
77
00:04:47,412 --> 00:04:48,789
Yup.
78
00:04:54,628 --> 00:04:56,296
Up.
79
00:05:05,806 --> 00:05:07,641
There you have it.
80
00:05:07,641 --> 00:05:09,643
Assuming I don't fall
in the hole.
81
00:05:11,311 --> 00:05:13,438
Do you think
that's a survey stake?
82
00:05:15,273 --> 00:05:17,359
‐It's definitely
different, but...
‐‐
83
00:05:17,359 --> 00:05:19,611
‐I don't know.
‐A different diameter,
84
00:05:19,611 --> 00:05:21,696
‐or were the survey stakes...?
‐No, they found‐‐ they
85
00:05:21,696 --> 00:05:23,657
‐found them this small.
‐Yeah, they were
about that size.
86
00:05:23,657 --> 00:05:25,283
‐There's‐there's that one
picture that we found.
‐Yes.
87
00:05:26,827 --> 00:05:28,245
A wooden stake?
88
00:05:28,245 --> 00:05:29,996
Could it be connected
89
00:05:29,996 --> 00:05:32,415
to the other ancient markersthe team has recently
90
00:05:32,415 --> 00:05:34,876
found in the swamp?
91
00:05:34,876 --> 00:05:37,838
All right, we'll keep this.
92
00:05:37,838 --> 00:05:39,798
Good eye, Jack.
93
00:05:39,798 --> 00:05:42,092
I saw the wood.
94
00:05:52,143 --> 00:05:54,855
Hey. While you guys are
trenching,
95
00:05:54,855 --> 00:05:56,731
I'm gonna go metal detecting
around here.
96
00:05:56,731 --> 00:05:59,693
Okay. And then we will have
a better perspective
97
00:05:59,693 --> 00:06:01,695
if we go over there
and watch the trench.
98
00:06:01,695 --> 00:06:03,780
‐Yes.
‐Yeah.
I'll go help him dig.
99
00:06:03,780 --> 00:06:05,282
Okay, mate.
See you in a bit.
100
00:06:05,282 --> 00:06:07,868
‐Good luck.
‐Thanks.
101
00:06:07,868 --> 00:06:09,911
As Rick and the team
102
00:06:09,911 --> 00:06:13,290
continue their investigationin the swamp...
103
00:06:13,290 --> 00:06:16,626
some 1,000 miles westof Oak Island
104
00:06:16,626 --> 00:06:18,628
in Traverse City, Michigan...
105
00:06:18,628 --> 00:06:20,338
‐Hello, Vanessa!
‐Hey, guys.
106
00:06:20,338 --> 00:06:22,382
‐How you doing today?
Great.
‐Good. Good.
107
00:06:22,382 --> 00:06:23,884
...Marty Lagina
108
00:06:23,884 --> 00:06:25,927
and his business partnerCraig Tester
109
00:06:25,927 --> 00:06:28,388
have arranged a callwith Vanessa Lucido,
110
00:06:28,388 --> 00:06:31,516
the CEO of ROC Equipment,to discuss plans
111
00:06:31,516 --> 00:06:33,894
for what promisesto be the largest excavation
112
00:06:33,894 --> 00:06:37,731
the team has ever attemptedat the Money Pit.
113
00:06:37,731 --> 00:06:39,441
One thing
I'll tell you, Vanessa,
114
00:06:39,441 --> 00:06:42,402
that is kind of exciting‐‐
actually, it's very exciting‐‐
115
00:06:42,402 --> 00:06:44,654
is that Rick and company managed
116
00:06:44,654 --> 00:06:46,740
to find this shaft
called "Shaft Two,"
117
00:06:46,740 --> 00:06:50,160
and we know from the records,
it was only 14 feet away
118
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:51,870
‐from the original Money Pit.
‐Okay.
119
00:06:51,870 --> 00:06:54,581
So, we really think
we're closing in
120
00:06:54,581 --> 00:06:57,876
on the original Money Pit
with that information,
121
00:06:57,876 --> 00:07:00,170
‐which is exciting.
‐Awesome.
122
00:07:00,170 --> 00:07:02,505
Four weeks ago,
123
00:07:02,505 --> 00:07:04,466
while drilling near Shaft Two‐
124
00:07:04,466 --> 00:07:07,594
the 1805 searcher tunneldug by Daniel McGinnis
125
00:07:07,594 --> 00:07:09,763
and membersof the Onslow Company‐‐
126
00:07:09,763 --> 00:07:11,973
the Oak Island teamobtained samples
127
00:07:11,973 --> 00:07:15,143
of unusual, hand‐cut wood.
128
00:07:15,143 --> 00:07:17,604
Wood which was latercarbon‐dated
129
00:07:17,604 --> 00:07:19,606
to the 17th century,
130
00:07:19,606 --> 00:07:22,108
more than 100 yearsbefore the discovery
131
00:07:22,108 --> 00:07:24,861
of the original Money Pit.
132
00:07:24,861 --> 00:07:27,656
So we want to discuss
133
00:07:27,656 --> 00:07:30,450
what is the largest can,
perhaps two,
134
00:07:30,450 --> 00:07:32,577
that we could put down
on the island
135
00:07:32,577 --> 00:07:34,496
from a practical standpoint?
136
00:07:34,496 --> 00:07:36,247
So, the last couple years,
137
00:07:36,247 --> 00:07:37,957
we've been putting downfive‐foot diameter shafts,
138
00:07:37,957 --> 00:07:40,627
but I do have eight‐foot cansreadily available.
139
00:07:40,627 --> 00:07:42,629
We can doan eight‐footer this year.
140
00:07:42,629 --> 00:07:44,964
‐Perfect.
‐That'd be great.
141
00:07:44,964 --> 00:07:48,218
And to be safe, I was gonnabring up 220 feet of pipe?
142
00:07:48,218 --> 00:07:49,969
Okay.
143
00:07:49,969 --> 00:07:51,346
We did five‐foot cans
144
00:07:51,346 --> 00:07:53,765
last year and the year before.
145
00:07:53,765 --> 00:07:55,850
And an eight‐foot candoesn't sound
146
00:07:55,850 --> 00:07:57,811
like it's that much bigger,
147
00:07:57,811 --> 00:08:02,107
but we're actually getting twoand a half times more material.
148
00:08:02,107 --> 00:08:04,859
Well, that's a lot.It's a lot more sampling.
149
00:08:04,859 --> 00:08:06,653
So, I'm excited about it.
150
00:08:06,653 --> 00:08:08,905
The‐the ability
to do this is great.
151
00:08:08,905 --> 00:08:11,574
Are you fairly confident
we can get through a shelf
152
00:08:11,574 --> 00:08:14,577
in the bedrock
into the cavity below?
153
00:08:14,577 --> 00:08:16,663
We're gonna havea lot better chance because
154
00:08:16,663 --> 00:08:18,164
we're gonna have moreof a cutting area.
155
00:08:18,164 --> 00:08:19,582
‐Okay.
‐So,
156
00:08:19,582 --> 00:08:21,042
um, I thinkwe're gonna have a lot,
157
00:08:21,042 --> 00:08:22,877
‐lot better chance to get down.
‐Good.
158
00:08:22,877 --> 00:08:25,505
What about the, hammer‐grab?
Is it...?
159
00:08:25,505 --> 00:08:27,173
What size do you go with?
160
00:08:27,173 --> 00:08:29,801
So we'll bringeight‐foot grabs.
161
00:08:29,801 --> 00:08:32,011
Bigger boy. We have a bighammer‐grab coming.
162
00:08:32,011 --> 00:08:34,013
Okay.
163
00:08:34,013 --> 00:08:36,516
So, we'll look forward
to seeing you there.
164
00:08:36,516 --> 00:08:37,934
‐Couple weeks?
‐Yeah.
165
00:08:37,934 --> 00:08:39,310
Got a lot of truckscoming your way.
166
00:08:39,310 --> 00:08:40,770
That's great.
Get it rolling,
167
00:08:40,770 --> 00:08:42,605
Vanessa. We're ready.
It's time to dig.
168
00:08:42,605 --> 00:08:44,399
Yeah. We're‐we're gonna drillshafts all over the island.
169
00:08:44,399 --> 00:08:46,901
‐All over the place.
‐Okay.
‐We're gonna find it.
170
00:08:46,901 --> 00:08:49,029
‐Yeah, okay. Good. I love that.
‐
171
00:08:49,029 --> 00:08:50,280
See you in a couple weeks.
172
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:51,656
- All right. Bye, guys.- Bye.
173
00:08:59,873 --> 00:09:02,042
I've never
174
00:09:02,042 --> 00:09:05,045
been back here, Gary,
when it's been this dry.
175
00:09:05,045 --> 00:09:06,421
Yeah, it's really dry.
176
00:09:10,300 --> 00:09:12,052
Hey!
177
00:09:12,052 --> 00:09:14,596
We've got a target here, Jack.
178
00:09:14,596 --> 00:09:17,390
‐
‐Rick!
179
00:09:17,390 --> 00:09:19,476
- ‐Come here!
- Check this out!
180
00:09:19,476 --> 00:09:22,896
At the Oak Islandswamp, Rick Lagina,
181
00:09:22,896 --> 00:09:26,733
his nephew Alex, along withJack Begley and Gary Drayton
182
00:09:26,733 --> 00:09:29,235
are continuing to searchfor tangible evidence
183
00:09:29,235 --> 00:09:31,446
that can identify the natureof the strange,
184
00:09:31,446 --> 00:09:34,074
200‐foot‐long,ship‐shaped anomaly
185
00:09:34,074 --> 00:09:37,410
that was revealed by seismictesting earlier this year.
186
00:09:39,746 --> 00:09:41,998
Still in there,
so it's down there.
187
00:09:47,170 --> 00:09:49,923
Look at that. What is this
doing down here? Look!
188
00:09:49,923 --> 00:09:51,466
What the heck is that?
189
00:09:51,466 --> 00:09:54,385
Look at that.
190
00:09:54,385 --> 00:09:57,847
What the heck... is that?
191
00:10:00,100 --> 00:10:01,768
That looks like...
192
00:10:01,768 --> 00:10:04,729
I don't know what.
Some kind of metal point.
193
00:10:04,729 --> 00:10:06,272
Yup.
194
00:10:06,272 --> 00:10:08,358
Some kind of metal post or pin.
195
00:10:08,358 --> 00:10:09,984
Yeah.
196
00:10:09,984 --> 00:10:12,445
There might be wood in there.
There might be wood.
197
00:10:12,445 --> 00:10:14,280
Yeah, that's not solid iron.
198
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:15,782
No. Man,
199
00:10:15,782 --> 00:10:18,076
‐that is an interesting find.
‐Yeah.
200
00:10:18,076 --> 00:10:22,705
See right here? To me, there's
certainly some feature there.
201
00:10:22,705 --> 00:10:24,999
‐So it's got a fastener.
So this was...
‐
202
00:10:24,999 --> 00:10:26,668
A pole would be in here, right?
203
00:10:26,668 --> 00:10:28,378
And that pin would go
through there.
204
00:10:28,378 --> 00:10:30,338
‐That and that.
‐Yup.
205
00:10:30,338 --> 00:10:33,299
So something was pinned through
because something was put in.
206
00:10:33,299 --> 00:10:35,301
Yup.
207
00:10:35,301 --> 00:10:36,761
Initially, it lookedlike a spear point.
208
00:10:36,761 --> 00:10:39,889
It did.
Or a lance point, rather.
209
00:10:39,889 --> 00:10:43,977
But then, we turn it about,and it appears hollow.
210
00:10:43,977 --> 00:10:47,147
And at that point,if this can lead us down a path
211
00:10:47,147 --> 00:10:49,065
towards the ultimate goalof trying
212
00:10:49,065 --> 00:10:51,985
to come to an understandingof what happened on Oak Island,
213
00:10:51,985 --> 00:10:54,320
that's certainly
worth investigating.
214
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,365
Gary, I... I have no clue.
215
00:10:57,365 --> 00:11:00,160
Yeah, it is really, really old.
216
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:01,995
Well, it's got us all stumped.
217
00:11:01,995 --> 00:11:04,330
That is unusual, and...
218
00:11:04,330 --> 00:11:07,417
if you found that,
who knows what else is here?
219
00:11:07,417 --> 00:11:08,835
‐Exactly.
‐Good hunting.
220
00:11:08,835 --> 00:11:10,170
‐All right, mate.
‐Great find.
221
00:11:10,170 --> 00:11:11,713
‐Yeah.
‐We're gonna go back
222
00:11:11,713 --> 00:11:13,339
observing that trench.
223
00:11:13,339 --> 00:11:15,008
You guys keep hunting.
224
00:11:15,008 --> 00:11:17,010
All right, let's recheck
this hole, Jack.
225
00:11:17,010 --> 00:11:19,512
‐See if there's
anything else here.
‐Yeah, yeah, for sure.
226
00:11:19,512 --> 00:11:23,183
As Jack and Garycontinue metal detecting,
227
00:11:23,183 --> 00:11:26,352
Rick and Alexjoin Paul Troutman,
228
00:11:26,352 --> 00:11:29,689
Dave Blankenshipand Billy Gerhardt
229
00:11:29,689 --> 00:11:34,194
as they dig for more evidenceof the ship‐shaped anomaly.
230
00:11:39,365 --> 00:11:41,201
I don't like how hard
that material is.
231
00:11:41,201 --> 00:11:43,119
No, I didn't hear loose
232
00:11:43,119 --> 00:11:45,705
‐material in that at all.
‐No, no.
233
00:11:45,705 --> 00:11:48,041
We'd have to have
a different bucket
234
00:11:48,041 --> 00:11:50,043
‐on there to dig deeper.
‐Yes, yes.
235
00:11:50,043 --> 00:11:51,961
You could spend hours
digging that,
236
00:11:51,961 --> 00:11:54,214
- ‐and beat the equipment up.
- Yes.
237
00:12:06,601 --> 00:12:08,228
That's just hard, hard ground.
238
00:12:08,228 --> 00:12:10,438
Yeah, he's just,
he's just grinding.
239
00:12:10,438 --> 00:12:11,731
Hey, Billy!
240
00:12:11,731 --> 00:12:12,774
Let's, let's call it.
241
00:12:12,774 --> 00:12:13,900
Let's call it.
242
00:12:13,900 --> 00:12:15,735
You're grinding away.
243
00:12:15,735 --> 00:12:17,570
Although they are only
244
00:12:17,570 --> 00:12:19,072
a few feet away from reaching
245
00:12:19,072 --> 00:12:21,407
their target depth,Rick and the team
246
00:12:21,407 --> 00:12:24,244
have just encountereda frustrating setback.
247
00:12:24,244 --> 00:12:27,413
The densely packed claybottom of the swamp
248
00:12:27,413 --> 00:12:29,415
is too hard for themto continue digging,
249
00:12:29,415 --> 00:12:33,253
without risking serious damageto their equipment.
250
00:12:33,253 --> 00:12:36,089
But have they encountereda natural barrier,
251
00:12:36,089 --> 00:12:40,134
or one that like the swampitself, is man‐made?
252
00:12:40,134 --> 00:12:43,471
At the end of the day, this isabout expectation management.
253
00:12:43,471 --> 00:12:46,432
And as we speak, I think the
preponderance of the evidence
254
00:12:46,432 --> 00:12:49,143
is indicating
there's something there.
255
00:12:49,143 --> 00:12:51,938
But we need to take some timeand‐and figure this out.
256
00:12:51,938 --> 00:12:53,106
Hope springs eternal.
257
00:12:53,106 --> 00:12:54,691
Hope springs
eternal.
258
00:12:57,318 --> 00:12:59,654
After a long day
259
00:12:59,654 --> 00:13:01,990
of investigationin the swamp...
260
00:13:01,990 --> 00:13:04,993
We've invited a guest.
261
00:13:04,993 --> 00:13:07,203
Jim, I welcome you
to the war room.
262
00:13:07,203 --> 00:13:08,955
Rick Lagina and other members
263
00:13:08,955 --> 00:13:10,957
of the team gatherin the war room
264
00:13:10,957 --> 00:13:13,084
where they arejoined once again
265
00:13:13,084 --> 00:13:15,503
by Oak Island theorist,James McQuiston.
266
00:13:15,503 --> 00:13:17,505
I think everyone
is familiar with,
267
00:13:17,505 --> 00:13:20,550
you know,
your original presentation.
268
00:13:20,550 --> 00:13:22,802
But, we look forward to what
you have to tell us today.
269
00:13:22,802 --> 00:13:25,847
I, I have a little handout.
270
00:13:25,847 --> 00:13:27,807
Essentially, what it is,
271
00:13:27,807 --> 00:13:31,644
it's how the Freemasons
connect directly to Oak Island.
272
00:13:31,644 --> 00:13:33,146
One year ago,
273
00:13:33,146 --> 00:13:35,356
James presented the teamwith his research
274
00:13:35,356 --> 00:13:37,650
that suggestedScottish descendants
275
00:13:37,650 --> 00:13:39,152
of the Knights Templar,
276
00:13:39,152 --> 00:13:41,571
known as the orderof the Knights Baronet,
277
00:13:41,571 --> 00:13:44,073
not only began settlingthe region of Nova Scotia
278
00:13:44,073 --> 00:13:46,034
in the early 17th century,
279
00:13:46,034 --> 00:13:49,829
but may have been connectedto the Oak Island mystery.
280
00:13:49,829 --> 00:13:54,167
Founded in 1625by Sir William Alexander,
281
00:13:54,167 --> 00:13:58,171
a Scottish royal advisorto King James I of England,
282
00:13:58,171 --> 00:14:00,381
their mission was two‐fold.
283
00:14:00,381 --> 00:14:03,843
One, to establish a safe refue
284
00:14:03,843 --> 00:14:05,720
for Templar descendantsin Nova Scotia.
285
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:07,680
And their second objective,
286
00:14:07,680 --> 00:14:10,641
according to James McQuiston,was to add valuables to a vast
287
00:14:10,641 --> 00:14:14,020
Templar treasure vault thathad been buried on Oak Island
288
00:14:14,020 --> 00:14:16,022
centuries earlier.
289
00:14:16,022 --> 00:14:20,234
The story starts
with William Alexander working
290
00:14:20,234 --> 00:14:23,029
on this idea of creating the
Knights Baronet of Nova Scotia.
291
00:14:23,029 --> 00:14:26,532
Immediately, clan chieftains
started signing up.
292
00:14:26,532 --> 00:14:28,618
They were going
to move out of Scotland,
293
00:14:28,618 --> 00:14:30,703
but they were going
to get 30,000 acres,
294
00:14:30,703 --> 00:14:32,288
name their own town,
295
00:14:32,288 --> 00:14:34,373
lay it out the way they
wanted to, and if you're gonna
296
00:14:34,373 --> 00:14:36,876
leave behind Scotland,
well, you're not gonna
297
00:14:36,876 --> 00:14:39,170
leave all your valuables there.
298
00:14:39,170 --> 00:14:42,215
So, you would have
clan valuables, and...
299
00:14:42,215 --> 00:14:45,051
I would say the first couple
dozen of these Knights Baronet
300
00:14:45,051 --> 00:14:46,969
that signed up had connections
301
00:14:46,969 --> 00:14:48,554
backwards
to the Knights Templar.
302
00:14:48,554 --> 00:14:50,223
So, they may have
even‐even had some
303
00:14:50,223 --> 00:14:52,391
Templar artifacts
in their family.
304
00:14:52,391 --> 00:14:56,229
I believe it was their best
option to literally create
305
00:14:56,229 --> 00:14:58,731
the Money Pit and say,
"We're gonna bury it.
306
00:14:58,731 --> 00:15:00,066
"We're gonna booby‐trap it.
307
00:15:00,066 --> 00:15:01,567
Nobody's gonna know about it."
308
00:15:01,567 --> 00:15:03,569
Well, on top of all that, if‐‐
309
00:15:03,569 --> 00:15:07,073
as if that wasn't enough,
Sir William Alexander was
310
00:15:07,073 --> 00:15:10,993
leading a secret Templar
Masonic order when he died,
311
00:15:10,993 --> 00:15:13,412
which may have simply
been a description
312
00:15:13,412 --> 00:15:15,123
somebody made of the Freemasons.
313
00:15:15,123 --> 00:15:17,917
The bottom line is
that it's more
314
00:15:17,917 --> 00:15:20,086
than apparent that
the Scottish clan leaders,
315
00:15:20,086 --> 00:15:22,755
who became the Knights Baronet
of Nova Scotia
316
00:15:22,755 --> 00:15:25,591
had a lot of links
to the Freemasons.
317
00:15:25,591 --> 00:15:28,136
Sir William Alexander,
318
00:15:28,136 --> 00:15:30,263
the founderof the Knights Baronet,
319
00:15:30,263 --> 00:15:32,181
also a Freemason?
320
00:15:32,181 --> 00:15:36,352
For more than two centuries,the secret society of builders
321
00:15:36,352 --> 00:15:39,105
known as the Freemasonshas been closely intertwined
322
00:15:39,105 --> 00:15:40,940
with the Oak Island mystery.
323
00:15:40,940 --> 00:15:43,776
Not only have prominenttreasure hunters been members‐‐
324
00:15:43,776 --> 00:15:46,154
including Daniel McGinnis,
325
00:15:46,154 --> 00:15:48,489
M.R. Chappell,
326
00:15:48,489 --> 00:15:50,616
and Franklin Delano Roosevelt‐
327
00:15:50,616 --> 00:15:53,161
but many sacredMasonic symbols‐‐
328
00:15:53,161 --> 00:15:55,121
such as the letter G,
329
00:15:55,121 --> 00:15:57,415
representing the greatarchitect of the universe...
330
00:15:57,415 --> 00:15:59,625
triangles...
331
00:15:59,625 --> 00:16:03,171
and even what appearsto be the all‐seeing eye...
332
00:16:03,171 --> 00:16:05,381
have been discoveredon the island.
333
00:16:07,633 --> 00:16:10,970
So, right off the bat,
you have the Alexanders
334
00:16:10,970 --> 00:16:12,847
controlling
what became Freemasonry.
335
00:16:12,847 --> 00:16:16,809
The next person to take over
the Freemasons of Nova Scotia
336
00:16:16,809 --> 00:16:19,061
was James Maclean.
337
00:16:19,061 --> 00:16:21,314
What a lot of people don't
realize is that John Smith,
338
00:16:21,314 --> 00:16:23,399
who was one of the people
who found the Money Pit,
339
00:16:23,399 --> 00:16:25,234
his mother was a Maclean.
340
00:16:25,234 --> 00:16:28,487
And the McGinnises were very
tight with the Macleans.
341
00:16:28,487 --> 00:16:30,615
I mean, all of these families
are connected.
342
00:16:30,615 --> 00:16:33,659
In 1795,
343
00:16:33,659 --> 00:16:35,828
after reportedlynoticing strange lights
344
00:16:35,828 --> 00:16:37,663
coming from Oak Island,
345
00:16:37,663 --> 00:16:41,167
Daniel McGinnis and John Smith,along with their friend,
346
00:16:41,167 --> 00:16:43,878
Anthony Vaughn,took a boat from the mainland
347
00:16:43,878 --> 00:16:45,338
to investigate.
348
00:16:45,338 --> 00:16:47,924
There, they werestunned to find
349
00:16:47,924 --> 00:16:50,551
a mysterious,13‐foot‐wide depression
350
00:16:50,551 --> 00:16:53,054
at the base of an old oak tre,
351
00:16:53,054 --> 00:16:56,224
which according to someaccounts, was also carved
352
00:16:56,224 --> 00:16:58,017
with strange, Masonic symbols.
353
00:16:58,017 --> 00:17:00,770
Believing they hadfound the hiding place
354
00:17:00,770 --> 00:17:03,564
for a treasure vault,they began to dig.
355
00:17:03,564 --> 00:17:06,776
Over the courseof several years,
356
00:17:06,776 --> 00:17:09,070
they made a numberof shocking discoveries,
357
00:17:09,070 --> 00:17:12,281
such as platforms made ofoak logs every ten feet,
358
00:17:12,281 --> 00:17:14,617
and at a depth of 90 feet,
359
00:17:14,617 --> 00:17:18,204
a stone slab with strangemarkings carved into it.
360
00:17:18,204 --> 00:17:21,082
But could McGinnisand his friends have found
361
00:17:21,082 --> 00:17:22,875
the legendary treasure shaft,
362
00:17:22,875 --> 00:17:25,628
not by chance,but by recognizing
363
00:17:25,628 --> 00:17:27,755
a number of carefullyplaced clues?
364
00:17:27,755 --> 00:17:30,967
Clues which they knew aboutthrough their association
365
00:17:30,967 --> 00:17:33,386
with Freemasonry,and by extension,
366
00:17:33,386 --> 00:17:35,513
the Knights Templar?
367
00:17:35,513 --> 00:17:39,058
I'm proposing that
maybe they weren't just
368
00:17:39,058 --> 00:17:41,811
lollygagging around
and tripped over the Money Pit,
369
00:17:41,811 --> 00:17:44,897
but they were actually
here looking for something,
370
00:17:44,897 --> 00:17:46,983
looking for some sign
of a buried treasure.
371
00:17:46,983 --> 00:17:49,068
That it had been
carried down through
372
00:17:49,068 --> 00:17:51,737
the Alexander family,
and through the Maclean family,
373
00:17:51,737 --> 00:17:53,990
and maybe the McGinnis family,
and they were,
374
00:17:53,990 --> 00:17:55,783
looking for something
when they found it.
375
00:17:55,783 --> 00:17:57,410
They just didn't trip over it.
376
00:17:57,410 --> 00:17:59,453
It's really interesting now.
377
00:17:59,453 --> 00:18:00,621
Yeah.
378
00:18:00,621 --> 00:18:01,956
And that would explain why
379
00:18:01,956 --> 00:18:04,584
they so readily grabbed shovels
380
00:18:04,584 --> 00:18:07,128
and dug 30 foot down by thir‐‐
381
00:18:07,128 --> 00:18:09,297
'Cause that's a mammoth
project for three guys.
382
00:18:09,297 --> 00:18:11,841
I mean, it's just
a‐a big thing to do.
383
00:18:11,841 --> 00:18:14,635
So, that's my story and,
384
00:18:14,635 --> 00:18:17,972
I appreciate you giving me
a chance to tell it.
385
00:18:17,972 --> 00:18:19,890
But, um...
386
00:18:19,890 --> 00:18:22,685
history continues
to reveal itself.
387
00:18:22,685 --> 00:18:24,478
I have to say this, James.
388
00:18:24,478 --> 00:18:26,647
It's been,
an incredible pleasure
389
00:18:26,647 --> 00:18:28,858
to‐to be witness
390
00:18:28,858 --> 00:18:30,568
to‐to what you have
accomplished.
391
00:18:30,568 --> 00:18:31,652
Thank you, Jim.
392
00:18:31,652 --> 00:18:32,737
‐Thank you.
‐Appreciate it.
393
00:18:37,366 --> 00:18:40,286
As a new day beginson Oak Island...
394
00:18:40,286 --> 00:18:43,289
Here we are, guys.
395
00:18:43,289 --> 00:18:45,583
...Marty Lagina,Charles Barkhouse,
396
00:18:45,583 --> 00:18:47,835
surveyor Steve Guptill,
397
00:18:47,835 --> 00:18:52,256
and archeologist Laird Nivenarrive on Lot 21.
398
00:18:52,256 --> 00:18:54,675
In light of the new researchpresented one day ago
399
00:18:54,675 --> 00:18:57,386
by theorist James McQuiston,
400
00:18:57,386 --> 00:18:59,180
they are eagerto further investigate
401
00:18:59,180 --> 00:19:01,432
the early 19th centuryfoundation
402
00:19:01,432 --> 00:19:04,602
of what was once the homeof Daniel McGinnis.
403
00:19:04,602 --> 00:19:08,147
Although any investigationof the site has previously been
404
00:19:08,147 --> 00:19:11,609
restricted by the provincialgovernment of Nova Scotia,
405
00:19:11,609 --> 00:19:14,487
Laird Niven has been able tohelp the team obtain a permit
406
00:19:14,487 --> 00:19:16,405
to conduct a near‐surface
407
00:19:16,405 --> 00:19:19,158
archeological excavationof the area.
408
00:19:19,158 --> 00:19:20,743
Okay, Laird, this is your show.
409
00:19:20,743 --> 00:19:22,953
You are clearly in charge
at this point.
410
00:19:22,953 --> 00:19:24,497
‐
‐You know, examining this is
411
00:19:24,497 --> 00:19:26,999
certainly a step
in the right direction
412
00:19:26,999 --> 00:19:29,710
of telling the‐the true story
of what took place here.
413
00:19:29,710 --> 00:19:31,379
Is there any chance
that these guys
414
00:19:31,379 --> 00:19:33,339
found a treasure
or part of the treasure?
415
00:19:33,339 --> 00:19:36,300
That's the speculation.
416
00:19:36,300 --> 00:19:41,055
Following their discoveryof the Money Pit in 1795,
417
00:19:41,055 --> 00:19:43,557
Daniel McGinnisand his friend John Smith
418
00:19:43,557 --> 00:19:46,268
each purchased landon the island,
419
00:19:46,268 --> 00:19:47,937
where they would spendthe rest of their lives
420
00:19:47,937 --> 00:19:50,523
trying to solve the mystery.
421
00:19:50,523 --> 00:19:53,818
Although records suggestthat they and their partners
422
00:19:53,818 --> 00:19:56,821
were never able to excavatebelow the 90‐foot level
423
00:19:56,821 --> 00:19:59,949
in the treasure shaft,due to the flood tunnels...
424
00:19:59,949 --> 00:20:04,120
Now, I've been told they found
425
00:20:04,120 --> 00:20:06,872
‐three treasure chests.
‐Really?
426
00:20:06,872 --> 00:20:09,875
In 2015, Daniel McGinnis's
427
00:20:09,875 --> 00:20:12,545
direct descendantsvisited the island,
428
00:20:12,545 --> 00:20:15,423
and presented Rick,Marty, Craig and the team
429
00:20:15,423 --> 00:20:18,884
with a stunning artifact,which Joan McGinnis claimed
430
00:20:18,884 --> 00:20:20,594
had been passed downthrough generations
431
00:20:20,594 --> 00:20:23,347
‐of the McGinnis family.
‐My goodness.
432
00:20:23,347 --> 00:20:26,600
Well, that is quite
extraordinary.
433
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,144
So, we have to do this right.
434
00:20:28,144 --> 00:20:29,729
‐This is under permit,
so why don't you
‐Yep.
435
00:20:29,729 --> 00:20:31,272
tell us what we need to do.
436
00:20:31,272 --> 00:20:33,232
So, we're setting up a baseline.
437
00:20:33,232 --> 00:20:35,234
‐All right.
‐Yeah, so, here's a visual.
438
00:20:35,234 --> 00:20:37,611
Yeah, so, here are
the anomalies right here.
439
00:20:37,611 --> 00:20:40,823
Baseline is running this way.
440
00:20:40,823 --> 00:20:43,743
Test pits are in here.
441
00:20:43,743 --> 00:20:46,078
We had an anomaly there.
442
00:20:46,078 --> 00:20:47,997
Okay.
‐It was a very strong anomaly
443
00:20:47,997 --> 00:20:50,583
- ‐at about four feet down.
- Earlier this year,
444
00:20:50,583 --> 00:20:52,918
the team enlisted groundpenetrating radar experts,
445
00:20:52,918 --> 00:20:56,922
Steve Watson and Don Johnstonto scan the area,
446
00:20:56,922 --> 00:20:58,883
and were stunnedto find a number
447
00:20:58,883 --> 00:21:01,343
of underground anomalies,including
448
00:21:01,343 --> 00:21:04,013
a possible hidden sub‐basemen.
449
00:21:04,013 --> 00:21:06,766
Could it be thatDaniel McGinnis kept
450
00:21:06,766 --> 00:21:09,769
a secret hiding place forwhat he found on Oak Island?
451
00:21:09,769 --> 00:21:13,773
If so, could important cluesor valuables
452
00:21:13,773 --> 00:21:16,609
still be hiddensomewhere on the property?
453
00:21:16,609 --> 00:21:19,904
Using the collected GPR data,
454
00:21:19,904 --> 00:21:23,157
Laird has designedan archeological search grid,
455
00:21:23,157 --> 00:21:24,700
which the teamwill methodically excavate
456
00:21:24,700 --> 00:21:26,952
in three‐foot sections known
457
00:21:26,952 --> 00:21:28,537
as "test pits."
458
00:21:28,537 --> 00:21:30,206
One of the most
significant names
459
00:21:30,206 --> 00:21:32,458
way back in the beginning
of all this was McGinnis.
460
00:21:32,458 --> 00:21:35,085
But his foundation,the foundation of his house
461
00:21:35,085 --> 00:21:38,339
has been off‐limits becauseit's an archaeological site.
462
00:21:38,339 --> 00:21:41,467
So, under Laird's supervision,
we'll conduct
463
00:21:41,467 --> 00:21:44,512
a proper archaeological dig
of the foundation
464
00:21:44,512 --> 00:21:45,554
and the surrounding area.
465
00:21:45,554 --> 00:21:46,847
And the hope is that
466
00:21:46,847 --> 00:21:49,391
that will provide usa greater understanding
467
00:21:49,391 --> 00:21:51,310
of their involvementand maybe the possibility
468
00:21:51,310 --> 00:21:53,187
that they may have foundsomething significant
469
00:21:53,187 --> 00:21:54,230
long ago.
470
00:21:54,230 --> 00:21:55,648
It's time to dig.
471
00:22:04,031 --> 00:22:05,991
And then he does the shimmy.
472
00:22:08,035 --> 00:22:10,037
What you looking for?
Bits of pottery
473
00:22:10,037 --> 00:22:11,539
‐and things like that?
‐Yeah.
474
00:22:11,539 --> 00:22:13,207
But even every stone
you should look at
475
00:22:13,207 --> 00:22:14,834
just in case, you know.
476
00:22:14,834 --> 00:22:17,294
- ‐This is a high activity area.
- Yeah.
477
00:22:17,294 --> 00:22:19,839
‐Sounds like a good place
for people to drop things.
‐Yeah.
478
00:22:19,839 --> 00:22:21,340
Well, I think big picture,
479
00:22:21,340 --> 00:22:23,592
we're hoping,
"Were they associated
480
00:22:23,592 --> 00:22:25,261
with the discovery
of the Money Pit?"
481
00:22:25,261 --> 00:22:28,055
‐
‐Things that say
what happened here, right?
482
00:22:28,055 --> 00:22:30,516
- Artifacts or features.
- ‐
483
00:22:30,516 --> 00:22:32,184
- ‐Yeah.
- Well, as per usual,
484
00:22:32,184 --> 00:22:33,352
‐I'm more interested
in artifacts.
‐Artifacts.
485
00:22:33,352 --> 00:22:34,603
Yeah, something with a date.
486
00:22:34,603 --> 00:22:36,897
So, with each bucketful,
487
00:22:36,897 --> 00:22:38,858
we'll be able
to maybe get some answers?
488
00:22:38,858 --> 00:22:40,317
I hope so. I mean,
489
00:22:40,317 --> 00:22:42,444
- ‐that's the intent, right?
- Yeah.
490
00:22:42,444 --> 00:22:44,029
All right.Well, let's keep going.
491
00:22:44,029 --> 00:22:46,282
As Laird Nivenand members of the team
492
00:22:46,282 --> 00:22:49,577
begin their investigationof the McGinnis foundation...
493
00:22:49,577 --> 00:22:53,455
You can see we're stillinto that thick, clay layer.
494
00:22:53,455 --> 00:22:56,417
Jack Begley, metal detectionexpert Gary Drayton,
495
00:22:56,417 --> 00:22:58,711
and heavy equipment operatorBilly Gerhardt
496
00:22:58,711 --> 00:23:00,921
have resumed search operations
497
00:23:00,921 --> 00:23:03,007
in the Uplands areaof Smith's Cove.
498
00:23:03,007 --> 00:23:04,800
A friend or a relative
of the cross
499
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:07,386
could be just beneath our feet.
500
00:23:07,386 --> 00:23:08,888
That's why we're here, mate.
501
00:23:08,888 --> 00:23:10,598
While the team reassesses
502
00:23:10,598 --> 00:23:12,474
their search optionsin the swamp
503
00:23:12,474 --> 00:23:15,060
and with a large‐scale digin the Money Pit area
504
00:23:15,060 --> 00:23:17,146
now just a few weeks away,
505
00:23:17,146 --> 00:23:19,440
they have decidedto redouble their efforts
506
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,483
to locate and shut off
507
00:23:21,483 --> 00:23:24,486
the island's infamousbooby‐trapped flooding system.
508
00:23:24,486 --> 00:23:26,697
I notice
we're getting into thicker clay.
509
00:23:26,697 --> 00:23:28,157
Natural layer.
510
00:23:28,157 --> 00:23:29,950
Yeah, that's still clay.
511
00:23:29,950 --> 00:23:31,452
Just be nice to find a tunnel
512
00:23:31,452 --> 00:23:34,663
with a big sign saying,
"Treasure this way."
513
00:23:34,663 --> 00:23:37,499
You know it's towards
the Money Pit.
514
00:23:45,341 --> 00:23:47,343
That's wood.
515
00:23:48,385 --> 00:23:51,263
Yeah,
a lot of timbers down there.
516
00:23:51,263 --> 00:23:52,598
That's definitely wood.
517
00:23:52,598 --> 00:23:54,516
‐Yeah! Yep.
‐We got a big piece
of timber.
518
00:23:54,516 --> 00:23:56,393
- ‐Yeah.
- I mean,
519
00:23:56,393 --> 00:23:58,145
that's deep
for a piece of timber.
520
00:23:58,145 --> 00:23:59,855
Yeah, look.
521
00:23:59,855 --> 00:24:02,733
Yeah. There's one
on its edge now, too.
522
00:24:04,401 --> 00:24:05,945
And that looks hollow
under there
523
00:24:05,945 --> 00:24:07,237
unless that's just the way it...
524
00:24:07,237 --> 00:24:09,198
You think it's hollow
over there?
525
00:24:09,198 --> 00:24:11,200
Kind of looks like a tunnel
down there.
526
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:12,785
Yeah.
527
00:24:16,830 --> 00:24:18,874
‐Yeah.
What have you
found now, Jack?
528
00:24:18,874 --> 00:24:20,709
Some kind of a stump.
529
00:24:20,709 --> 00:24:23,295
I think
we have to dig some more,
530
00:24:23,295 --> 00:24:25,089
expose more of this wood
and see if it does
531
00:24:25,089 --> 00:24:26,382
‐end up being a structure.
‐Yeah.
532
00:24:26,382 --> 00:24:27,716
I'll just pick it out.
533
00:24:27,716 --> 00:24:30,219
‐We'll see what it...
‐Yeah.
534
00:24:32,721 --> 00:24:35,307
That's really big.
535
00:24:36,308 --> 00:24:37,476
Pull it away, Billy!
536
00:24:37,476 --> 00:24:39,436
There's something underneath it.
537
00:24:45,484 --> 00:24:47,820
What is that, mate?
That looks like a tunnel.
538
00:24:47,820 --> 00:24:51,115
Yeah, I‐I think this is
the tunnel we're looking for.
539
00:24:51,991 --> 00:24:53,534
There's stacked timbers.
540
00:24:53,534 --> 00:24:56,745
I think we ran into the tunnel
that's leading...
541
00:24:56,745 --> 00:24:58,664
‐That's what
it looks like to me.
I mean, it might
542
00:24:58,664 --> 00:25:01,291
‐just be by searchers,
but we're in the right spot.
Yeah.
543
00:25:01,291 --> 00:25:03,252
Yeah, that's got
544
00:25:03,252 --> 00:25:05,546
all the makings
of being a tunnel, mate.
545
00:25:05,546 --> 00:25:07,131
Timbers running that way.
546
00:25:07,131 --> 00:25:08,966
The hole.
547
00:25:08,966 --> 00:25:10,300
That's sweet!
548
00:25:10,300 --> 00:25:14,179
A possible tunnel or shaft?
549
00:25:14,179 --> 00:25:15,848
Could it befrom previous search efforts
550
00:25:15,848 --> 00:25:18,017
to interceptthe main flood tunnel?
551
00:25:18,017 --> 00:25:20,436
Or could it be a structure
552
00:25:20,436 --> 00:25:24,690
used to create the flood systemcenturies ago?
553
00:25:26,775 --> 00:25:28,610
All right, what do we got?
What do we got?
554
00:25:28,610 --> 00:25:31,572
I think we've opened up
a wooden Pandora's box here.
555
00:25:31,572 --> 00:25:33,449
I mean,
look at all these timbers.
556
00:25:33,449 --> 00:25:36,869
All different sizes and shapes.
557
00:25:36,869 --> 00:25:38,120
I think we might have hit
558
00:25:38,120 --> 00:25:40,539
a collapsed tunnel or some sort
559
00:25:40,539 --> 00:25:43,292
of linear feature of wood
that got disturbed.
560
00:25:43,292 --> 00:25:45,169
Excuse me, Gary.
561
00:25:45,169 --> 00:25:46,545
I‐I'm gonna go have a look.
562
00:25:48,130 --> 00:25:49,798
And we've only just got into it,
563
00:25:49,798 --> 00:25:51,425
so we figure
we'd give you a call
564
00:25:51,425 --> 00:25:54,386
and see what you make of it
before we dig it out.
565
00:25:54,386 --> 00:25:58,140
Maybe we cut through
the fabled flood tunnel.
566
00:25:58,140 --> 00:25:59,808
Now we have to follow it back.
567
00:25:59,808 --> 00:26:01,602
It could be yet another clue
568
00:26:01,602 --> 00:26:03,479
as to wherethe original Money Pit was.
569
00:26:03,479 --> 00:26:05,147
So let's go dig it up.
570
00:26:09,902 --> 00:26:11,236
Come here. Look at this.
571
00:26:11,236 --> 00:26:13,322
Is this coconut fiber?
572
00:26:14,573 --> 00:26:17,618
I think there's big chunks
of coconut fiber.
573
00:26:17,618 --> 00:26:19,703
That is very interesting.
574
00:26:23,248 --> 00:26:25,793
Look at this, Rick.
575
00:26:25,793 --> 00:26:27,795
Think that's coconut fiber?
576
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:31,799
That is interesting. Well,
577
00:26:31,799 --> 00:26:33,050
- ‐it's hairlike.
- Yeah.
578
00:26:33,050 --> 00:26:34,760
Yeah. And it's clumped, as well.
579
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:35,969
Yeah, no, that's...
580
00:26:35,969 --> 00:26:37,930
‐That is very interesting.
‐Yeah.
581
00:26:37,930 --> 00:26:41,225
The presence of coconut fiberis curious
582
00:26:41,225 --> 00:26:44,603
not only because the nearestindigenous coconut trees
583
00:26:44,603 --> 00:26:48,107
are more than 1,500 miles awayfrom Oak Island
584
00:26:48,107 --> 00:26:50,109
but also becauseit was discovered
585
00:26:50,109 --> 00:26:52,277
by Daniel McGinnis and his tem
586
00:26:52,277 --> 00:26:53,737
some 60 feet deep
587
00:26:53,737 --> 00:26:56,281
in the original Money Pitin 1804
588
00:26:56,281 --> 00:26:59,326
and then by membersof The Truro Company
589
00:26:59,326 --> 00:27:02,121
at Smith's Cove in 1850.
590
00:27:02,121 --> 00:27:05,582
It was there that a massivelayer of it was discovered,
591
00:27:05,582 --> 00:27:09,086
covering and acting as a filterfor the five stone box drains
592
00:27:09,086 --> 00:27:11,421
which convergeinto the main flood tunnel
593
00:27:11,421 --> 00:27:14,299
that the teamis currently looking for.
594
00:27:14,299 --> 00:27:16,635
If the materialthe team has found
595
00:27:16,635 --> 00:27:20,264
can be scientifically verifiedto be coconut fiber,
596
00:27:20,264 --> 00:27:22,474
it could mean the teamis closer than ever
597
00:27:22,474 --> 00:27:24,810
to findingand shutting off the booby trap
598
00:27:24,810 --> 00:27:27,604
that has thwarted effortsto excavate the Money Pit
599
00:27:27,604 --> 00:27:30,148
for more than two centuries.
600
00:27:30,148 --> 00:27:32,818
How much of it
is there, Jack?
‐Um...
601
00:27:32,818 --> 00:27:34,194
There's a lot of it over here.
602
00:27:34,194 --> 00:27:35,988
You'd need a lot
to pack a lot of treasure.
603
00:27:35,988 --> 00:27:38,991
‐We need... we need to bag this.
‐
604
00:27:38,991 --> 00:27:40,492
So, let's try
605
00:27:40,492 --> 00:27:42,077
to get a sample
without touching it.
606
00:27:42,077 --> 00:27:43,829
- Yep.
- Yeah. Just open the bag
607
00:27:43,829 --> 00:27:46,039
and use the bag like a glove.
608
00:27:48,041 --> 00:27:51,044
- Yeah.
- There's a big chunk of it.
609
00:27:51,044 --> 00:27:53,171
‐
That's it.
Grab a big clump.
610
00:27:53,171 --> 00:27:54,506
Look at that.
611
00:27:54,506 --> 00:27:56,341
‐And there's still a bunch more.
‐Yeah.
612
00:27:56,341 --> 00:27:58,844
‐There's a whole bunch more
right there.
‐Yeah.
613
00:27:58,844 --> 00:28:01,513
Yep. This bit of coconut fiber
614
00:28:01,513 --> 00:28:04,850
makes me think that we might be
into original works.
615
00:28:06,810 --> 00:28:08,645
There's a lot
going on right here.
616
00:28:08,645 --> 00:28:10,898
Rather massive structure
going on here.
617
00:28:10,898 --> 00:28:12,065
Yes.
618
00:28:12,065 --> 00:28:14,359
There are only a few things
619
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:18,989
that I find absolutely unique
620
00:28:18,989 --> 00:28:20,532
to this quest, to this search,
621
00:28:20,532 --> 00:28:22,242
and one of themis coconut fiber.
622
00:28:22,242 --> 00:28:25,245
I want a definitive test,
623
00:28:25,245 --> 00:28:29,041
science‐based,
that it is indeed coconut fiber.
624
00:28:29,041 --> 00:28:30,709
So do I, Rick.
625
00:28:30,709 --> 00:28:33,045
- ‐Is that enough of this, Rick?
- Yeah, that's enough.
626
00:28:33,045 --> 00:28:35,088
‐I'll put it to safety.
‐Good.
627
00:28:35,088 --> 00:28:37,966
I'm actually kind of excited
about this.
628
00:28:37,966 --> 00:28:39,551
Absolutely.
629
00:28:43,013 --> 00:28:45,223
The following day,
630
00:28:45,223 --> 00:28:48,060
as members of the teamcontinue to carefully excavate
631
00:28:48,060 --> 00:28:49,603
in the Uplands...
632
00:28:49,603 --> 00:28:51,730
It's like ye old times.
633
00:28:51,730 --> 00:28:53,899
We're back againat Carmen Legge's.
634
00:28:53,899 --> 00:28:56,735
...Marty Lagina,along with his son Alex
635
00:28:56,735 --> 00:28:58,111
and Gary Drayton,
636
00:28:58,111 --> 00:29:00,405
travel some 20 miles northof Oak Island
637
00:29:00,405 --> 00:29:02,157
to the Ross Farm Museum,
638
00:29:02,157 --> 00:29:06,203
located in the townof New Ross, Nova Scotia.
639
00:29:06,203 --> 00:29:07,412
They have arranged
640
00:29:07,412 --> 00:29:09,706
for blacksmithing expertCarmen Legge
641
00:29:09,706 --> 00:29:11,917
to examinethe mysterious metal object
642
00:29:11,917 --> 00:29:13,961
found two days ago in the swap
643
00:29:13,961 --> 00:29:16,838
near the areawhere seismic scanning
644
00:29:16,838 --> 00:29:19,758
detected a 200‐foot‐long,ship‐shaped anomaly
645
00:29:19,758 --> 00:29:22,219
earlier this year.
646
00:29:22,219 --> 00:29:24,179
We got some stuff
we're trying to figure out.
647
00:29:24,179 --> 00:29:26,181
‐Should I put them
on this table?
‐Yep.
648
00:29:27,724 --> 00:29:29,142
Right.
649
00:29:29,142 --> 00:29:31,937
This came out of the swamp.
650
00:29:31,937 --> 00:29:33,897
And the story with this
651
00:29:33,897 --> 00:29:37,275
is Jack and I saw
this conical boulder
652
00:29:37,275 --> 00:29:39,444
sticking out
of the edge of the swamp,
653
00:29:39,444 --> 00:29:42,447
and it just drew attention
to it.
654
00:29:42,447 --> 00:29:44,616
And that was found
right at the side
655
00:29:44,616 --> 00:29:46,076
of the conical boulder.
656
00:29:59,297 --> 00:30:01,258
Does it look old to you?
657
00:30:05,470 --> 00:30:07,222
- ‐There you go.
- Sweet.
658
00:30:07,222 --> 00:30:09,474
- ‐Yeah, I love those dates.
- ‐
659
00:30:09,474 --> 00:30:11,101
Yeah, 'cause when
we first pulled it out,
660
00:30:11,101 --> 00:30:13,186
we thought maybe it was,
like, the...
661
00:30:13,186 --> 00:30:16,648
the bottom of the leg
of a survey stake,
662
00:30:16,648 --> 00:30:18,066
but it's so chunky.
663
00:30:18,066 --> 00:30:19,693
It's so heavy.
664
00:30:22,654 --> 00:30:24,281
Too heavy?
665
00:30:26,283 --> 00:30:28,243
‐
666
00:30:35,250 --> 00:30:36,626
Wow.
667
00:30:46,636 --> 00:30:48,180
That's what we're looking for
in the swamp.
668
00:30:48,180 --> 00:30:49,890
‐From the right time period.
‐Yeah.
669
00:30:49,890 --> 00:30:51,516
Wow.
670
00:30:51,516 --> 00:30:54,352
An 18th century pike pole
671
00:30:54,352 --> 00:30:57,981
possibly usedto maneuver a large ship?
672
00:30:57,981 --> 00:30:59,691
Also known as a boat hook,
673
00:30:59,691 --> 00:31:03,361
a pike pole was a long woodenor metal tool
674
00:31:03,361 --> 00:31:06,448
with one end featuring a hookand blunt‐pointed tip
675
00:31:06,448 --> 00:31:10,202
for pushing and pullingfaraway objects.
676
00:31:10,202 --> 00:31:12,704
Commonly foundon shipping wharfs,
677
00:31:12,704 --> 00:31:16,083
these pike poles would serveas a docking aid
678
00:31:16,083 --> 00:31:17,501
to guide sailing vessels
679
00:31:17,501 --> 00:31:20,170
in and outof a boat slip or pier.
680
00:31:20,170 --> 00:31:22,130
But whatwould a pike pole be doing
681
00:31:22,130 --> 00:31:24,216
in the Oak Island swamp?
682
00:31:24,216 --> 00:31:26,259
Could it beanother key piece of evidence
683
00:31:26,259 --> 00:31:28,887
that a ship could have beendeliberately sunk there
684
00:31:28,887 --> 00:31:30,555
in order to hide it
685
00:31:30,555 --> 00:31:34,226
along with the precious cargoit contained?
686
00:31:34,226 --> 00:31:37,395
He's quite certainit's off a sailing ship.
687
00:31:37,395 --> 00:31:40,065
All right. What does that mean?
688
00:31:40,065 --> 00:31:42,484
I guess it could mean
689
00:31:42,484 --> 00:31:45,028
that there was once a ship
in the swamp.
690
00:31:45,028 --> 00:31:47,948
The data's getting overwhelmingthat something happened
691
00:31:47,948 --> 00:31:49,741
mid‐1700s here.
692
00:31:49,741 --> 00:31:51,368
You know, Carmen,
right about the time
693
00:31:51,368 --> 00:31:53,703
I give up on the swamp,
it produces something like that.
694
00:31:53,703 --> 00:31:55,247
Because there's been
bits and bobs
695
00:31:55,247 --> 00:31:57,666
of ships coming out of there
since we started.
696
00:31:57,666 --> 00:31:59,709
Just tiny bits like this.
697
00:31:59,709 --> 00:32:02,129
But the bottom line,
thank you for analyzing it.
698
00:32:02,129 --> 00:32:03,463
I appreciate it.
699
00:32:03,463 --> 00:32:04,923
And we'll be back.
We'll be back.
700
00:32:04,923 --> 00:32:06,341
We're gonna find
some more stuff.
701
00:32:06,341 --> 00:32:07,884
We'll definitely be back.
We need to know
702
00:32:07,884 --> 00:32:09,136
- ‐what this stuff is.
- Yeah.
703
00:32:09,136 --> 00:32:11,096
Thanks for the great news.
704
00:32:14,474 --> 00:32:16,309
Seeing anything else, Rick?
705
00:32:16,309 --> 00:32:17,602
There's a board here.
706
00:32:17,602 --> 00:32:19,521
Another piece of wood
right here.
707
00:32:19,521 --> 00:32:22,149
Following his visitwith blacksmithing expert,
708
00:32:22,149 --> 00:32:25,902
Carmen Legge, metal detectionexpert Gary Drayton
709
00:32:25,902 --> 00:32:28,488
has joined Rick Lagina,Jack Begley
710
00:32:28,488 --> 00:32:31,741
and heavy equipment operatorBilly Gerhardt
711
00:32:31,741 --> 00:32:33,493
as they continuetheir excavation
712
00:32:33,493 --> 00:32:35,370
of a mysterious wooden shaft
713
00:32:35,370 --> 00:32:38,373
located in the Uplandsnear Smith's Cove‐‐
714
00:32:38,373 --> 00:32:42,419
a shaft that may be connectedto the main flood tunnel
715
00:32:42,419 --> 00:32:45,297
believed to feed seawaterinto the Money Pit.
716
00:32:47,883 --> 00:32:50,135
Definitely
a heck of a lot of timber here,
717
00:32:50,135 --> 00:32:51,511
and it's been...
718
00:32:51,511 --> 00:32:52,888
smashed.
719
00:32:52,888 --> 00:32:55,765
Yeah, 'cause if this is
one structure...
720
00:32:55,765 --> 00:32:58,393
this is one of the biggest ones
we've run across.
721
00:32:58,393 --> 00:32:59,936
Yep.
722
00:33:08,945 --> 00:33:10,363
Whoa.
723
00:33:10,363 --> 00:33:12,365
Yeah, thick clay.
724
00:33:14,075 --> 00:33:15,702
It's not the clay.
725
00:33:15,702 --> 00:33:17,454
It's wood every...
726
00:33:17,454 --> 00:33:19,623
everywhere.
727
00:33:19,623 --> 00:33:20,957
You got a board here,
728
00:33:20,957 --> 00:33:24,336
a board here, a board here,
a board here.
729
00:33:26,129 --> 00:33:27,756
And then there's a...
730
00:33:27,756 --> 00:33:30,133
log or beam...
731
00:33:30,133 --> 00:33:31,718
right here.
732
00:33:31,718 --> 00:33:33,803
When you look
from the top, it all seems
733
00:33:33,803 --> 00:33:36,181
to be running
towards the Money Pit.
734
00:33:36,181 --> 00:33:38,099
Maybe we are in...
735
00:33:38,099 --> 00:33:40,477
one of those old tunnels
or close by.
736
00:33:40,477 --> 00:33:42,729
I think that...
we'd be foolish
737
00:33:42,729 --> 00:33:45,565
not to investigate everything
as though it were.
738
00:33:45,565 --> 00:33:47,317
I think we're
on the right path here.
739
00:33:47,317 --> 00:33:49,402
Expose, so Billy gets a line,
and then...
740
00:33:49,402 --> 00:33:51,863
just keep creeping in
and try to find
741
00:33:51,863 --> 00:33:53,823
a structure well‐defined.
742
00:33:53,823 --> 00:33:55,116
All right, how about...
743
00:33:55,116 --> 00:33:57,244
‐we step out of the way and...
‐Yeah.
744
00:33:57,244 --> 00:33:59,246
...let Billy do his thing.
745
00:34:01,331 --> 00:34:02,582
We're hitting wood
746
00:34:02,582 --> 00:34:04,834
in the Smith's Cove Uplands,
747
00:34:04,834 --> 00:34:07,754
and I'm hopingthis could be the activities
748
00:34:07,754 --> 00:34:10,674
of the original depositors.I mean,
749
00:34:10,674 --> 00:34:12,217
we have to keep digging.
750
00:34:12,217 --> 00:34:15,303
This is a very interesting,
development.
751
00:34:15,303 --> 00:34:17,681
Who knows
where it will lead?
752
00:34:20,642 --> 00:34:22,811
Hey, Rick.
753
00:34:22,811 --> 00:34:25,021
‐What you guys got?
‐Actually, Marty,
754
00:34:25,021 --> 00:34:29,317
we're continuing to dig up
this collapsed tunnel.
755
00:34:29,317 --> 00:34:30,819
In the middle is clay,
756
00:34:30,819 --> 00:34:34,322
and we hit a layer of‐‐ whoa!
757
00:34:34,322 --> 00:34:36,574
Look at that!
758
00:34:36,574 --> 00:34:38,576
You hit a gusher.
759
00:34:38,576 --> 00:34:40,412
Wow.
760
00:34:46,001 --> 00:34:48,920
What's interesting
about it is, there's rocks.
761
00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:50,422
And there's rocks here.
762
00:34:51,423 --> 00:34:52,757
Yeah.
763
00:34:52,757 --> 00:34:55,176
Kind of like what we found
in Smith's Cove.
764
00:34:55,176 --> 00:34:57,762
Could the massiveand sudden water flow mean
765
00:34:57,762 --> 00:34:59,806
that the teamhas finally intercepted
766
00:34:59,806 --> 00:35:03,602
the main flood tunnelconnected to the Money Pit?
767
00:35:03,602 --> 00:35:07,397
It just started
gushing water out.
768
00:35:09,065 --> 00:35:11,443
Just a lot of organic material.
769
00:35:17,574 --> 00:35:19,784
It's a big hole.
770
00:35:26,291 --> 00:35:28,835
It goes way down
beyond the shovel.
771
00:35:28,835 --> 00:35:31,254
It just keeps going.
772
00:35:31,254 --> 00:35:32,505
Is that actually a hole?
773
00:35:32,505 --> 00:35:33,757
Watch.
774
00:35:33,757 --> 00:35:35,592
This is how deep it is.
775
00:35:40,972 --> 00:35:43,308
Well,
that's a little odd, isn't it?
776
00:35:44,851 --> 00:35:47,145
There's no bottom, either.
777
00:35:47,145 --> 00:35:49,397
What if it's a shaft,
not filled?
778
00:35:49,397 --> 00:35:51,066
So maybe this is...
779
00:35:51,066 --> 00:35:55,153
a spot where the shaft
transcended down into a tunnel?
780
00:35:55,153 --> 00:35:56,655
This might be Shaft Five.
781
00:35:58,114 --> 00:36:00,450
The one that intercepted
the flood tunnel.
782
00:36:01,868 --> 00:36:04,412
Shaft Five?
783
00:36:04,412 --> 00:36:07,082
In 1850,following their discovery
784
00:36:07,082 --> 00:36:09,042
of the five stone box drains,
785
00:36:09,042 --> 00:36:11,336
which convergedinto a single flood tunnel
786
00:36:11,336 --> 00:36:12,921
beneath Smith's Cove,
787
00:36:12,921 --> 00:36:15,215
members of The Truro Company
788
00:36:15,215 --> 00:36:18,259
began sinking a wood‐cribbedshaft in the Uplands area
789
00:36:18,259 --> 00:36:20,261
hoping to locate‐‐and cut off‐‐
790
00:36:20,261 --> 00:36:23,765
the booby trap that fedseawater into the Money Pit.
791
00:36:23,765 --> 00:36:27,143
At a depth of 35 feet,they encountered
792
00:36:27,143 --> 00:36:29,979
a large boulderthat blocked their path.
793
00:36:29,979 --> 00:36:31,981
However, when it was removed,
794
00:36:31,981 --> 00:36:35,402
the shaft suddenly beganfilling with ocean water,
795
00:36:35,402 --> 00:36:39,114
leading them to believe theyhad intercepted their target.
796
00:36:39,114 --> 00:36:41,950
Unfortunately,the effort proved unsuccessful
797
00:36:41,950 --> 00:36:43,952
in stopping the water flow,
798
00:36:43,952 --> 00:36:46,955
and Shaft Five was abandoned.
799
00:36:46,955 --> 00:36:48,957
The earlier searchers knew
800
00:36:48,957 --> 00:36:50,792
where the finger drainsconverged,
801
00:36:50,792 --> 00:36:52,794
at least in a general sense.
802
00:36:52,794 --> 00:36:55,880
And they literally were tryingto shut off the flood tunnel.
803
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:58,216
Now, what I'm hoping is...
804
00:36:58,216 --> 00:37:00,844
that we find
the flood tunnel itself.
805
00:37:00,844 --> 00:37:05,014
Because we do know that they
thought they were very close.
806
00:37:05,014 --> 00:37:08,810
And we need to excavateand see what they found.
807
00:37:08,810 --> 00:37:11,604
So let's see how deep it goes,
808
00:37:11,604 --> 00:37:14,566
and then... decide what to do.
809
00:37:24,242 --> 00:37:27,412
As a new day beginson Oak Island,
810
00:37:27,412 --> 00:37:30,415
and as the excavationof what could be Shaft Five
811
00:37:30,415 --> 00:37:32,667
continues near Smith's Cove...
812
00:37:32,667 --> 00:37:35,044
Guys, thanksfor assembling on quick notice.
813
00:37:35,044 --> 00:37:36,463
I appreciate it.
814
00:37:36,463 --> 00:37:38,256
...brothersRick and Marty Lagina
815
00:37:38,256 --> 00:37:41,760
have gathered membersof the team in the war room
816
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:43,762
to hear a scientific reportvia telephone conference
817
00:37:43,762 --> 00:37:46,431
from geoscientistDr. Ian Spooner
818
00:37:46,431 --> 00:37:51,394
regarding the potential cocontfiber found there two days ag.
819
00:37:52,771 --> 00:37:55,023
Yeah, Ian.
You've got Marty and Rick
820
00:37:55,023 --> 00:37:57,609
and Doug and Steve and Alex.
821
00:38:00,612 --> 00:38:03,448
Well, we‐we'd like
to think so. Sure.
822
00:38:03,448 --> 00:38:07,076
Anyway, I know you had
some information.
823
00:38:07,076 --> 00:38:08,286
Okay.
824
00:38:27,222 --> 00:38:28,515
Wow.
825
00:38:28,515 --> 00:38:29,974
So it's coconut fiber?
826
00:38:30,850 --> 00:38:32,685
That's cool.
827
00:38:33,686 --> 00:38:35,188
News that the material
828
00:38:35,188 --> 00:38:37,190
that the team has found is,in fact,
829
00:38:37,190 --> 00:38:41,486
coconut fiber is a potentiallyhistoric development.
830
00:38:41,486 --> 00:38:44,739
It suggests that,after years of searching,
831
00:38:44,739 --> 00:38:48,326
Rick, Marty and the teammay finally be on the verge
832
00:38:48,326 --> 00:38:50,495
of locatingthe main flood tunnel,
833
00:38:50,495 --> 00:38:53,164
which was constructedmore than two centuries ago,
834
00:38:53,164 --> 00:38:56,626
in order to protect somethingbelieved to be of great value
835
00:38:56,626 --> 00:38:59,003
buried in the Money Pit.
836
00:38:59,003 --> 00:39:00,839
You've never seen
anything like it, and you've dug
837
00:39:00,839 --> 00:39:02,924
a lot of stuff out of the walls
of soil, right?
838
00:39:06,469 --> 00:39:08,054
Wow.
839
00:39:12,016 --> 00:39:13,643
No, that's fabulous. I mean,
840
00:39:13,643 --> 00:39:16,521
we found lots of structures
in Smith's Cove,
841
00:39:16,521 --> 00:39:18,690
but the difference is,
this one we found now
842
00:39:18,690 --> 00:39:21,693
has all this coconut fiber, and
that's a pretty key difference.
843
00:39:21,693 --> 00:39:23,695
Absolutely.
844
00:39:23,695 --> 00:39:25,405
Hey, thanks
for the quick info on that.
845
00:39:25,405 --> 00:39:27,532
That's pretty cool.
846
00:39:27,532 --> 00:39:28,658
Yeah, okay, good deal. Thanks.
847
00:39:28,658 --> 00:39:30,410
‐Cheers.
‐Bye.
848
00:39:30,410 --> 00:39:32,203
- ‐Bye.
- You've been questioning
849
00:39:32,203 --> 00:39:33,955
the lack of coconut fiber,
850
00:39:33,955 --> 00:39:36,040
so it's kind of cool
to come up with.
851
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,668
At least that says,
yeah, at one time there was some
852
00:39:38,668 --> 00:39:40,628
‐of this here.
‐It's something different.
853
00:39:40,628 --> 00:39:41,963
It's confirmation
854
00:39:41,963 --> 00:39:43,715
of the old stories
855
00:39:43,715 --> 00:39:45,466
that they found tremendous
amounts of coconut fiber
856
00:39:45,466 --> 00:39:47,468
when they were looking
for the box drains.
857
00:39:47,468 --> 00:39:49,596
And it appeared
to have been placed as a filter.
858
00:39:49,596 --> 00:39:53,558
‐The Restalls noted
that there was gobs of it.
‐Not only that,
859
00:39:53,558 --> 00:39:55,476
but nobody else put a bunch
of coconut fiber down
860
00:39:55,476 --> 00:39:58,229
while they were doing anything
in Smith's Cove, so...
861
00:39:58,229 --> 00:39:59,689
it represents original work.
862
00:39:59,689 --> 00:40:01,733
Represents original work.
863
00:40:01,733 --> 00:40:02,942
And very cool.
864
00:40:02,942 --> 00:40:04,444
At the end of the day,
865
00:40:04,444 --> 00:40:05,778
we were looking for...
866
00:40:05,778 --> 00:40:07,739
evidence...
867
00:40:07,739 --> 00:40:10,575
that would corroborate
or confirm
868
00:40:10,575 --> 00:40:12,744
‐the old story, right?
‐Yes.
869
00:40:12,744 --> 00:40:14,579
Now we have this evidence
870
00:40:14,579 --> 00:40:16,372
that it is indeedcoconut fiber.
871
00:40:16,372 --> 00:40:18,291
So there's some kind
872
00:40:18,291 --> 00:40:20,960
of original somethinggoing on here.
873
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:23,129
We're certainly finding
874
00:40:23,129 --> 00:40:24,923
what people
were originally looking for.
875
00:40:24,923 --> 00:40:27,008
I think we're
absolutely closing in.
876
00:40:27,926 --> 00:40:29,385
Okay, let's go.
877
00:40:29,385 --> 00:40:31,763
We're gonna find it out.
878
00:40:31,763 --> 00:40:34,641
For Rick,Marty and their team,
879
00:40:34,641 --> 00:40:37,268
a week that began with finding
880
00:40:37,268 --> 00:40:39,103
a promising new cluein the swamp
881
00:40:39,103 --> 00:40:42,774
has ended with a potentialbreakthrough discovery.
882
00:40:42,774 --> 00:40:46,945
One that means they could becloser than anyone before them
883
00:40:46,945 --> 00:40:48,780
to intercepting‐‐and disabling‐‐
884
00:40:48,780 --> 00:40:51,824
Oak Island'slegendary booby traps.
885
00:40:51,824 --> 00:40:53,534
But evenif they are successful,
886
00:40:53,534 --> 00:40:56,955
will they finally be ableto uncover
887
00:40:56,955 --> 00:40:59,332
Oak Island'scenturies‐old secret,
888
00:40:59,332 --> 00:41:02,627
somewhere deep insidethe fabled Money Pit?
889
00:41:02,627 --> 00:41:07,674
Or will they find that thismystery is much more complex‐‐
890
00:41:07,674 --> 00:41:11,928
and more dangerous‐‐ thanthey could ever have imagined?
891
00:41:15,139 --> 00:41:18,059
Next timeon The Curse of Oak Island...
892
00:41:18,059 --> 00:41:20,812
Time to look into the Eye.
893
00:41:20,812 --> 00:41:22,730
That's a big boulder.
894
00:41:22,730 --> 00:41:24,732
Nolan's Cross stones
aren't that big.
895
00:41:24,732 --> 00:41:27,443
‐We're the first ones
to ever see these.
‐Exactly.
896
00:41:27,443 --> 00:41:29,821
This yearit's go big or go home.
897
00:41:29,821 --> 00:41:31,364
What are you doing
with this itty‐bitty thing?
898
00:41:31,364 --> 00:41:32,991
- ‐We ordered a big excavator.
- ‐
899
00:41:32,991 --> 00:41:34,867
Geez, that's long!
900
00:41:34,867 --> 00:41:36,828
It's all aboutthe flood tunnel.
901
00:41:36,828 --> 00:41:38,162
Yeah!
Did you see that rush
902
00:41:38,162 --> 00:41:40,081
of water come in down there?
903
00:41:40,081 --> 00:41:42,333
You can see it squirting up
like a geyser.
904
00:41:42,333 --> 00:41:45,086
