Original subtitles

Tonight, on The Curse of Oak Island.

All right, I'm not willing to give up. You don't think we can put an axe

through a swamp? No. Why not?

This is looking very expensive and not too much reward.

This was found in the bottom of a swamp. What the hell is that?

It's a big tree stump. What's that doing on the middle of nowhere? It wouldn't

have grown underwater.

Then the swamp came after the tree. It's man-made. It's the money pit. I want to

see what's down there. That's the top of the vault. Looks like we might have been

right. Holy!

Wow, guys.

Do you think you're on the vault?

There is an island in the North Atlantic Where men have been looking for treasure

for more than 200 years They have uncovered booby-trapped flood tunnels

carved stones with strange symbols even 17th century Spanish

coins six men have even lost their lives and

according to legend

One more will have to die before the treasure can be found.

Especially if we get like one or two more in, we'll be at 100 feet.

Set up for pouring, start pouring like new. That would be a good thing.

After two full weeks of drilling, Rick and Marty Lagina, their partner Craig

Tester, and the other members of the Oak Island team are still trying to locate

the original money pit.

How far are you going to go? Get to 140, I think you'll be happy.

Since purchasing property on Oak Island seven years ago, brothers Rick and Marty

Lagina have employed a very simple strategy.

Follow up on every lead and explore every theory until tangible

evidence of a treasure is found.

So far, they have found coconut fiber at Smith's Cove.

Dating as far back as 1260 A.D.

Coconut fiber that is believed to have been used as a filter to keep ocean

debris from clogging a series of underground booby-trapped flood tunnels.

At the area known as Nolan's Cross, they found evidence of a number of large

flat-sided stones.

indicating that the boulders that make up the cross might be part of an

elaborate treasure map, one that points to the Knights Templar, the lost

manuscripts of William Shakespeare, and sacred religious objects from the Temple

of King Solomon.

At the swamp, they found a 17th century Spanish coin.

Oh. What is it? This could be something big. Which validates the many stories,

indicating... that what lies buried on Oak Island may very well be pirate

treasure. It's a Spanish meravigee, probably from the 1600s.

Now they are determined to locate the biggest and most challenging target of

all, the original Oak Island money pit.

To find it will take a combination of time, tenacity, and luck, three things

the Laginas are beginning to think they're running out of.

Because this legendary treasure site has been dug up and filled in more than a

dozen times over the past 200 years.

virtually all natural landmarks or man-made markers have been obliterated.

And vintage maps indicating the Money Pit's exact location have either been

lost or destroyed over time.

So our original plan was to move to that deeper hole, but you can see it caved

in. Rick and I had filled it in with a bunch of boulders to keep it from caving

in anymore.

For the past several years, Craig Tester has scoured scores of books and two

centuries' worth of anecdotal evidence in order to determine where to begin

gathering a number of core samples.

If just one of the samples contains physical evidence that can be dated to

before 1795, then the team will have found the original money pit.

Unfortunately, Much of the area surrounding the pit is filled with

layers of wood planking, stones, and other man-made debris left behind by

past treasure hunters, which conventional coring drills could not dig

through.

For this reason, the team has brought in a 30-ton drill rig, outfitted with drill

bits powerful enough to grind and dig through just about anything.

Earlier on, we tried drilling where those small PVC white pipes are.

but we couldn't get down deep enough. So we pulled forward a little bit. We still

should be in what they call that triangle area.

That's where M.R. said his father had drilled into the boat. M.R. Chappell.

Back in the 1800s. Yeah, a long time ago.

We're hoping to do that again with this hole.

In 1897, Oak Island treasure hunter and drill operator William Chappell, while

drilling core samples in the original money pit, discovered evidence of what

he believed to be a large wooden vault at a depth of 153 feet.

It was covered in something that looked like concrete.

And on his drill bit, he found what looked like flakes of gold, small bits

of metal, and even a piece of parchment with the letters VI clearly visible.

But before Chappell could dig a hole deep enough to reach the mysterious

wooden vault, water flooded the shaft.

The hole caved in, and the exact location of the mysterious wooden vault

was feared to be lost forever.

While trying to find the vault in the 1950s, William Chappell's son, Melvin,

deduced that his father's original drill site was located at an area on the

island he dubbed the Triangle Area.

The Triangle Area was something we discovered in a book, and then Rick and

Craig delineated where this Triangle Area is.

So we're going to drill basically kind of in the middle of it, trying to find

that vault.

Unfortunately for the Laginas, Mel Chappell also noted that due to the

unique characteristics of rotary drilling, it might be virtually

impossible to find the wooden vault.

This is due to the fact that when drilling at great depths, the drill bit

may veer off several degrees.

based on various underground factors such as soil conditions and possible

obstructions.

What's that that black thing over there?

That's a new method to separate the air from the water and sample.

On the side there's a hole where they'll shoot the water and the air and the

material they're bringing up and it'll spin in a circle in there and the air

will go out the top and the water and sediments will fall at the bottom then

hopefully we get good samples that way.

So we're hoping everyone hit the vault. Yeah.

Bring some of that shiny stuff up.

Fingers crossed.

We want this color.

Can I use it as an example? No. Oh.

As operations at the drill site continue, Rick Lagina has asked his

brother Marty and other members of their team to join him for a quick meeting in

the war room.

Okay, before we start, we have one piece of good news. We're always looking for

good news, right? We have the drainage permit for the swamp.

Oh.

It's good news. I'm so enthused.

It's good news.

For Marty, news that the team has received permission to drain and dig in

the Oak Island swamp doesn't exactly make him happy.

Zero start. Ready? Yep. Last summer... they got encouraging readings indicating

the presence of non-ferrous or precious metal near the so-called mercy point

only to then have the readings mysteriously disappear it's crazy you

get a hit it goes away and you come up with nothing how's that possible this

past winter big spike here the team scanned the frozen oak island swamp

using a deep max x6 metal detection unit still spiking But a detailed analysis of

the data they collected turned out to be less than positive.

You know, I met with Dave Spencer from Kelly Co. yesterday, and we finally did

get a report from Lorenz on the X6 and the Z1s. And honestly, it's not that

hopeful.

You have the letter, right? Yeah.

I mean, this is not too encouraging because at the very end he says,

unfortunately, there are only one or two ferrous metal objects we could see. All

the others are of no interest.

That's his summation.

I hope that is not too disappointing for you.

I hate that swamp. I've been clear about that. Stinky, nasty swamp. We've run

every state-of-the-art instrumentation out there. We're still not sure.

So I would be willing to say, well, look, we gave that the old college try

and be done and put more emphasis on the money pit.

Guys, I don't want to dig anything in the swamp. That's where I'm at.

What do you want to do?

I want to confirm that the two items that were found are those two targets.

And we can do it very simply. You're not done with the swamp? You don't think we

can put an X through swamp? No. Why not?

Because we're not done yet.

We're not. I'm not walking away.

You don't think we can put an X through swamp? No. Why not?

Because we're not done yet.

We're not. I'm not walking away.

The situation in the war room has suddenly become tense as brothers Rick

and Marty Lagina find themselves in a face-off that could affect the future of

their entire operation.

Ever since he was an 11-year-old boy growing up in northern Michigan.

Retired postal worker Rick Lagina has dedicated himself to solving the Oak

Island mystery.

He believes that somewhere at the bottom of the triangle-shaped swamp, the

entrance to a vast underground treasure vault may lie hidden.

So what do you want to do? I want to know that those are dogs. Okay, one.

That's easy enough.

I want to check the GPR.

Why don't we run a whole different machine in here? Yes.

We don't walk away when we're 90% of the way there.

Okay.

I'm not done with the swamp. The swamp is not done with us. There's something

there, and I intend to find out. All right, I'm not willing to give up. I

know that. And so let's take a vote. Fine.

Right now.

Okay. All those who want to continue in the swamp, continue.

I want to watch them flog around.

You don't have to go out there.

Then I will respectfully disagree, but I will wholeheartedly participate.

Happy, happy, happy. I am ecstatic about us going back into the swamp, Greg.

Can I say it one more time? I hate that swamp.

It stinks. It's buggy. It's nasty. You'll love it. Yeah, when you pull

Tutankhamen's second treasure out of there. Yeah, I'll like it then. Don't

get too crazy on me.

Now that the Laginas and their partners have agreed to continue investigating

the Oak Island swamp, Marty has called in a local tree expert to examine a

large stump that was pulled out of the water a few weeks ago.

I can swim it over to the shore if you want it, Craig.

We want it.

Well, Joe, look, I appreciate you coming out.

We got some mysteries we want solved. I understand you're the guy to do it.

Well, I don't know about that. Well, you shed some light, right? Try to help you.

You know all things about trees, right? Yes.

Marty is curious to know if the stump found at the bottom of the swamp could

have naturally grown in water.

Here's my first question. And I know this is difficult because this is

weathered and waterlogged and everything, but can you tell what

species this is?

Not definitively, no.

I would say it's probably hardwood.

It's been underwater for some time, and it probably wouldn't have grown very

well completely submerged underwater.

One would have to assume it was above water at some time.

Yeah, I mean, this isn't five feet of water. It wouldn't have grown there.

No, you wouldn't think, no.

As hardwood trees, like the many oaks found on Oak Island, cannot grow in

water, the stump found in the swamp may help prove that one of the island's most

compelling and persistent theories is true, that the island's triangle-shaped

swamp is, in fact, man-made. But how?

According to many Oak Island theorists, the swamp was most likely formed by

creating a 250-yard-long cofferdam.

bridging the east and west portions of the island, then draining out the water

and later refilling the area.

But what would have been the purpose of such an elaborate engineering effort?

The creation of an artificial swamp would have offered a perfect means to

first dig a large underground vault or network of tunnels, bury something of

great value, and then...

covered up beneath thousands of gallons of dark brackish water.

Water, which would also make access to the site difficult, if not virtually

impossible.

The fact of how certain Joe was that that tree couldn't possibly have grown

in that location with the swamp in place makes me want to not give up on the

swamp, makes me want to kind of get back in there, do a little more research.

The island lures us in again, is what I would call that.

Marty's renewed interest in exploring the swamp is a sign of his commitment to

pursue his brother's lifelong dream of solving the Oak Island mystery.

But Marty is also a practical man, and he is starting to consider what will

happen if the costs start getting too high.

At the drill site, Rick Lagina and Craig Tester learn that the larger rig has

been successful at reaching a depth of 115 feet.

But they are still 25 feet shy of their target depth of 140 feet, the depth they

will need to reach if they are ever to find not only the money pit, but also

the chapel vault.

Okay, solve this damn thing once and for all. You're going to record books.

The original descriptions were a clay-filled hole.

That's where we want to be the clays or the original money pit is and so we'll

start fresh with this last joint and any Material that comes through will be

brand new and we could be in Virgin territory and we're not that deep we may

be in an area that nobody's been so We'll take a good look at everything

from here on out.

I got some screens the health filter stuff out Well, somebody's gonna have to

be here.

Yeah best case scenario we see something really critical we wave wave jordan off

tell them to kind of keep an eye on us okay that's a good idea the last thing

we want is to miss something

as

water and debris pour into the trailer Rick and Craig searched through the mud

for any evidence that might indicate they could be close to finding the

original money pit treasure shaft.

The

description

of the old money pit.

solid clay filled shaft.

We get into the solid clay filled shaft, we have a better idea of where the money

pit was, and then maybe we can drill a few more holes to try to split spoon our

way down and maybe then recover a real artifact.

That's way too much water.

gallons of muddy water gush out of the drill hole.

Look at all that.

What do you think?

It's got to be coming from below.

That's not good.

The water issue is a concern.

It's a danger.

Where is that water coming from? We don't know.

Is it flood tunnels? Or are we actually getting water from some unknown source

and may destabilize the whole working platform?

Worst case scenario, the rig topples. I mean...

no one wants that could rick and craig have hit one of the booby-trapped flood

tunnels the same flood tunnels that according to legend flooded the money

pit 200 years ago and that continue to flood other searcher tunnels and shafts

like the halifax tunnel and 10x

It's rocking pretty good.

Could the search for the money pit be over before it even had a chance to get

started? Yeah, I think you ought to step back.

It's rocking pretty good.

Yeah, I think you ought to step back.

Rick.

While trying to drill a 140-foot hole in the Money Pit area to get a core sample,

Rick Lagina and Craig Tester have accidentally tapped into a gusher of

water.

Watch out for that.

Did you see that?

Yeah, I see that.

Could they have struck one of the legendary booby-trapped flood tunnels?

The ones long believed to have been constructed centuries ago to protect

whatever it is that lies buried on Oak Island?

If so, then the water that came gushing out of the hole would be saltwater from

the surrounding ocean.

It's not that bad.

That is not saltwater.

No.

I think I'd see if I could get David to drink something.

Confirm or not.

According to accounts by previous treasure hunters, the water that flooded

the money pit in the 19th century was salt water, unlike the fresh groundwater

found elsewhere on the island.

The presence of ocean water gave credibility to stories of a network of

booby-trapped flood tunnels, which enter the Money Pit area at various depths and

from various directions.

It is these flood tunnels which, when triggered, prevent the area around the

Money Pit from being excavated and whatever lies buried at the bottom from

being retrieved.

Jay, should I have David test it? Yeah.

Although tapping into what could be a man-made booby trap would be an

indication that Rick and Craig were on the right track, so far as finding the

money pit is concerned, a nonstop flood of seawater would seriously undermine

any progress the team was hoping to make.

Hey, boss.

You're going to be our lab rat for the day. Nah.

Come on. What do you want? Is it salt?

We both tasted it. We say it's fresh. You taste it.

No, no, taste it. Let me see the bottle.

No, no, no. Come on.

Fresh.

I think really it's brackish.

Well, brackish has a little salt in it.

Really? You think it is? Yeah.

No, it's fresh.

Finding fresh water most likely indicates that Rick and the team may

have hit an artesian well, one which could pose a significant threat to their

drilling efforts.

The first thing of interest for me is, you know, the old stories, money pits

salt water, money pits salt water.

The curious thing was, it wasn't salty. There's probably been an introduction of

fresh water into that system. So it's one more complexity to the puzzle.

It's a little disturbing, though, that there's that amount of fresh water in

there.

I can't explain it. I don't know.

So, as usual... One answer, two questions.

While the drilling process continues back at the Money Pit site, Craig Tester

meets with Marty to give him an update on the day's progress.

Hey, Marty.

How's the drilling going?

Well, it's going slow. It's frustrating.

Is he making progress?

Yeah, he's making progress.

I mean, the actual drilling is very quick. I mean, 20 feet and... Yeah, so

he's not having the same troubles that the other guy had. No. He's got enough

pump. He's got plenty of pump. He's got plenty of power.

Yeah. It's just, it's frustrating. It's not... I want to tell you what, Craig,

it's expensive, too.

You know how much the hourly is for that rig, and we've been out here now, and we

drilled... Two holes looking for the Halifax tunnel, didn't find anything.

Now we're drilling in the money pit.

I mean, at some point, we all have to be thinking, you know, when does enough

become enough, right?

Yeah, I mean, I don't know if we... We're burning money at a pretty good

rate.

We need a breakthrough.

I guess, you know, if you look at this year's efforts, it's been disappointing.

We got some teasers.

I guess we just need to...

You need to fight that vault.

All right, well, you know what? In for a penny, in for a pound.

Let's keep going for a while and see what happens.

Definitely. All right, good.

I want to work through some more figures, and then I'll join you out

there. Okay. Sounds good. Good deal. Go make some hole, Craig.

Sounds good.

See you. Okay.

For Marty Lagina, his brother's determination to pursue multiple

theories and search in more than one area at a time may have increased the

team's chances for success.

But they have also put a strain on the already limited number of days the team

can all be together on the island.

This is an expensive venture.

We have a lot of money in this, all of us, not just me, Craig, Rick, and

expenses continue to add up. So at some point, money will matter.

At some point, we have to look at the bottom line and say, is this still worth

it?

Back at the Money Pit site, progress is finally being made.

The 30-ton drilling rig has been stabilized, and the drill bits have

proved powerful enough to move past layers of debris and reach the team's

target depth of 140 feet.

If Craig

Tester's calculations are correct, the team could find themselves within a few

feet of the original money pit, and possibly the mysterious wooden object

known as the Chapel Vault.

It's taken a long time to get to the 140-foot level, but now we're ready to

start taking some split-spoon samples.

Okay. Ready to give it a try?

Yeah. Let's do it.

The process is a relatively simple one.

First, Jordan Rogers of Valleywell Drillers begins mounting a two-foot

coring head.

Once deployed, the drill will insert a steel casing into the 140-foot hole to

keep it from collapsing.

Then, a two-foot-long hollow coring bit, otherwise known as a split-spoon

sampler, will extract a sample of earth, along with any other objects present.

If the split spoon can retrieve any artifacts that can be dated to before

1795, then the Laginas and their team will have found the money pit.

At this point, it just comes down to luck. Did we pick the right spot?

Is there something there?

And how far are we going to penetrate into it?

So that begs the question, why are we here?

Because we're finding it right there.

We're just waiting for the split spoon that has to come out of that hole.

And finally, maybe we can get some information.

Up till now, it's just been a real money pit.

That's not good.

I mean, it's going to come up sloppy wet.

Yeah. And we're not going to get a solid core.

Well, he's got a slurry up to where his ports are above it. The core could still

be perfectly fine, but we'll see.

Did we get a full barrel? Yeah.

At the core.

It is a suspense-filled moment for the Oak Island team.

Will the core sample, containing materials from 140 feet deep

underground, indicate that they are close to finding the original Oak Island

money pit?

Look at that chunk of wood that came out of there.

That's amazing.

got a screwdriver knife definitely got wood

see what else you might have be nice to know what that is what species of wood

that is yeah definitely there we go it's coming slowly

that's definitely

That's what they found at the top of the vault.

I think that's bedrock right there.

I don't think that's bedrock.

Maybe it's concrete, Rick.

That is a possibility.

Concrete and then wood.

That's the description.

Concrete and wood?

Have Rick, Craig, and Dave not only located the original money pit, but also

the mysterious chapel vault?

the one first discovered by William Chappell more than 100 years ago?

What if this is a side piece, and we're coming right down the side of it?

But like you said, why is this turned this way? That's the top.

Here's the top.

This is sitting on top of this beam.

We cut through that right into this side.

I mean, it makes sense, but...

Why is there a but then? There's always a but in Oak Island.

According to historical records, the strange wooden vault William Chappell

and his team discovered measured seven feet high with seven-inch thick walls.

It was covered by a mixture of clay and sand that looked like cement, which

laboratory tests conducted at the time determined to have been worked by man.

That is curious the two different orientations of the wood it's curious

that this is old it stinks Have Rick Craig and the Oak Island team

really taken a core sample from the legendary chapel vault and If so, what

might they discover inside it?

pirate treasure rare manuscripts precious religious artifacts

Is the Oak Island team really on the threshold of solving this 200-year-old

mystery?

When the first split spoon came up, initially it's wow.

You know, there's a wow factor to it because we all see clay and we see what

might be construed as poor cement and then there's horizontal wood and then

there's vertical wood.

We're basically looking at the description from 1897 right there in

front of our faces.

We should take this to my brother. Yeah, absolutely.

Let's get in the truck and go.

Okay.

Rick Lagina, Craig Tester, and Dave Blankenship may have just made one of

the most momentous discoveries in the history of Oak Island.

They may have found not only the original money pit, but also a

mysterious wooden vault not located in more than a century.

Okay, let's surprise the hell out of him.

Artie. Gregor, how you doing? Good.

What's going on? Hey, Rick.

A little surprise for you. A little surprise for you.

But don't say anything until you look at it.

Okay.

This is the core? This is the first core? This is the core.

Which way is down? This is the top. This is the bottom. From where? What depth?

140 feet.

142.

So... Looks like concrete, doesn't it?

It kind of does look like concrete. Yep.

The stone doesn't do that.

You're right.

the odds on is that that is cement yeah that's you know like the top of a wood

vault is that what you're thinking yeah why the grains run in the opposite ways

top side great we're coming right down the side

based on the alignment of the wood grain found in the core sample the

team believes they didn't simply find a piece of milled wood from the top of the

wooden vault but from a portion of both the top where the grain would run

horizontally, and the side, where the grain would run vertically.

In other words, they hit the equivalent of a bullseye.

Does it say in that book what the physical appearance of it was?

Yeah, clay, cement, wood.

I mean, it's amazing.

That's exactly what was described in 1897, where they got the piece of

parchment. ostensibly the gold chain too right and they described that to a t

clay cement wood and i think wow geez craig you nailed it this is

great guys i guess you couldn't ask for anything better you got cement wood

fibers running this way wood fibers running that way i mean everybody since

1897 when that vault was first found has been trying to refine this and nobody

has found it Craig, for the first time I've ever seen him, is over the moon

about this. And I know my brother, he's skeptical.

He's done this before. I need proof, I need proof, I need proof.

We're just on the very edge.

If we're on the outside, you know, this is classic Oak Island, right? We're

going to drill another one, aren't we? Which way?

All four ways, all six ways, whatever.

Any bets? Next two feet?

Little shiny gold things. Shiny gold things down there, and you're clearly...

Look at that. Look at that tape. You're either falling out of it or you're going

in it.

Shortly after finding the cement-covered wooden vault in 1897, William Chappell

and his colleagues continued drilling additional core samples.

Upon reaching a depth of 171 feet, they were stopped by what they believed to be

a large, heavy metal object located directly beneath the mysterious wooden

vault.

Could it have been a second treasure site?

One that's contents were considered so priceless or so dangerous that it had to

be encased in metal?

The treasure hunters would never know because before they could excavate the

site, the money pit flooded with seawater from what appeared to be yet

another underground booby trap.

The gigantic hole was filled in and William Chappell and his colleagues went

home. empty-handed okay let's go get us another court right away yep let's

go we should take this to dan

the

news that rick Craig and Dave Blankenship have made an incredible

discovery, has re-energized the team on Oak Island.

But did they really find not only the original money pit, but also the

mysterious chapel vault? I'll go get dad and see if he's up.

All right.

So, you gotta tell me one thing.

Why you, of all people, are that excited? Cold, calculating, scientific,

detached analysis.

Craig, why are you so excited?

It fits the story. I mean, you know, I am a skeptic on many things, and, you

know, we got to see what Dan says, but, you know.

Hey, Dan.

We need you to tell us what we found.

What do you got, Rick?

Hopefully...

What's that look like?

Dan did a lot of work in the money pit. He punched a lot of holes with the old

churn drill. He has a keen intellect and a keen memory, so he brings an asset

that we don't have.

Like Rick Lagina, Dan Blankenship has spent nearly 50 years determined to

solve the mystery.

He has spent thousands of hours drilling, coring, and digging, and has

met with more than his fair share of setbacks and bad luck.

For him, Oak Island is both an obsession and a curse.

An obsession to find out what lies buried here, and a curse if he should be

forced to leave the island empty-handed.

It looks like a core or something. You can see it.

There's some kind of material around it. Here.

It's in here.

Wood's old, that's for sure.

I find that wood very interesting because of the difference.

This is this direction, this is that direction.

You've noticed that, I'm sure.

And this one here is in the vertical.

Yeah, up and down.

You may have something.

Chapel's vault.

So I'm wondering, is this the top of the vault? And we're hitting the side.

and we hit a post on the side.

If this is Chapel's vault, that's the culmination of some 45 years' work.

Looks like we might have been right.

You know what your odds are of hitting in something down there after all these

many years and so many holes been put down?

Yeah.

Astronomical, really.

Well, I'll tell you one thing, Dan. I told you we weren't giving up and we're

not going to give up. What do you say?

Oh, I think you have basis for what you call optimism.

Okay.

Today was a good day on Oak Island.

Information has been gathered and progress has been made.

But more than that, faith has been renewed.

Let's make some corn.

Big day.

Well, you ready, David?

Yes. Let's bring it up. Let's bring it home. That's right. For Marty Lagina,

finding the money pit means that all the years of hard work and the millions of

dollars spent so far may all have been worth it.

It's the encouragement we needed again. It always seems to happen on this bloody

island. You know, about the time you're in the pits and you're ready to give up

and say, let's go home, something happens to get you wired back in.

Time will tell, but I think this is a small victory.

For Rick, it means that the 50 years he spent believing in a dream may not have

been in vain. Hopefully, when the next one comes up, we'll have something to

look at.

It's always been my hope and my dream to be successful.

Best case scenario as to what's down there is we actually found the original

money pit. That's incredible.

We've moved the dial then on the Oak Island history.

So I'm excited about that, but also to see with our own eyes that those old

stories are real.

But now, there is much more work to do.

Finding the money pit is one thing. Reaching and retrieving whatever lies at

the bottom is quite another.

And what will the Laginas and their partners ultimately find?

An underground treasure vault?

Chests of gold?

Priceless objects and sacred artifacts?

Or will it be something so incredible and so powerful?

that the elaborate way in which it was hidden was meant to be taken as a

warning. Ready?

Set?

Here we go.

Next time on The Curse of Oak Island.

There we go.

That's solid wood.

We're on the side.

We're on the edge of something.

We need to figure the best way to take a look at it. That cipher is the

instruction on how to stop the flood traps.

I still think the swamp has something to tell us. X marks the spot.

We found another coin.

It could be very significant.

Looks like we've definitely got something. Looks like a Knights Templar

cross. Right now, this ends right here.
