00:00:01,463 --> 00:00:03,463
Tonight on
The Curse of Oak Island
2
00:00:03,587 --> 00:00:05,922
‐It's definitely a void.
‐We're gonna see right now if we get a full scoop.
3
00:00:05,923 --> 00:00:07,798
We're hoping we'll find
the Chappell Vault.
4
00:00:07,799 --> 00:00:09,842
It's the exciting
season finale.
5
00:00:09,843 --> 00:00:11,385
The dates are rather
extraordinary.
6
00:00:11,386 --> 00:00:12,553
‐Wow.
7
00:00:12,554 --> 00:00:13,846
We have a definitive date
8
00:00:13,847 --> 00:00:16,098
when the swamp was built.
9
00:00:16,099 --> 00:00:18,851
‐It's a coin!
‐That's proof positive.
10
00:00:18,852 --> 00:00:21,812
‐That tells quite a story.
‐That might be the find of the year.
11
00:00:21,813 --> 00:00:24,023
We may have a real whodunit.
12
00:00:24,024 --> 00:00:26,192
And we've got an artifact
you can hold in your hand.
13
00:00:26,193 --> 00:00:27,568
‐Medieval.
‐Medieval, baby!
14
00:00:31,114 --> 00:00:34,742
There is an island
in the North Atlantic
15
00:00:34,743 --> 00:00:38,246
where people have been looking
for an incredible treasure
16
00:00:38,247 --> 00:00:41,541
for more than 200 years.
17
00:00:41,542 --> 00:00:44,627
So far, they have found
a stone slab
18
00:00:44,628 --> 00:00:47,296
with strange symbols
carved into it,
19
00:00:47,297 --> 00:00:50,132
mysterious fragments
of human bone,
20
00:00:50,133 --> 00:00:53,928
and a lead cross
whose origin may stretch back
21
00:00:53,929 --> 00:00:56,472
to the days
of the Knights Templar.
22
00:00:56,473 --> 00:01:00,894
To date, six men have died
trying to solve the mystery.
23
00:01:01,937 --> 00:01:04,063
And, according to legend,
24
00:01:04,064 --> 00:01:07,149
one more will have to die
25
00:01:07,150 --> 00:01:10,862
before the treasure
can be found.
26
00:01:10,886 --> 00:01:13,886

28
00:01:30,841 --> 00:01:32,508
The hope is, today, that...
Yeah.
29
00:01:32,509 --> 00:01:34,510
...we find everything
there was to find,
30
00:01:34,511 --> 00:01:38,139
‐because the time, the window is closing.
‐Yeah, that'd be huge.
31
00:01:38,140 --> 00:01:40,766
Weather's closing.
32
00:01:40,767 --> 00:01:44,520
After a year that saw
the Laginas and their partners
33
00:01:44,521 --> 00:01:47,773
make a number of groundbreaking
discoveries in their quest
34
00:01:47,774 --> 00:01:51,944
to solve a 225‐year‐old
treasure mystery,
35
00:01:51,945 --> 00:01:56,282
Marty, Craig, Rick and members
of their incredible team
36
00:01:56,283 --> 00:01:59,285
are nevertheless determined
not to leave the island
37
00:01:59,286 --> 00:02:02,830
without making at least
one more historic breakthrough.
38
00:02:02,831 --> 00:02:06,459
But to do so,
they will have to work fast.
39
00:02:06,460 --> 00:02:09,795
It is already November,
and only a matter of days
40
00:02:09,796 --> 00:02:13,424
until another harsh North
Atlantic winter will force them
41
00:02:13,425 --> 00:02:15,635
to suspend all operations
on the island
42
00:02:15,636 --> 00:02:17,303
for the rest of the year.
43
00:02:17,304 --> 00:02:21,265
Once November rolls around,
your days are precious.
44
00:02:21,266 --> 00:02:25,728
So we need to accelerate this
final location that we're on.
45
00:02:25,729 --> 00:02:28,439
‐Gentlemen.
‐Morning, Craig.
46
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,941
‐Good morning, Craig.
‐So, what's the plan for the morning?
47
00:02:30,942 --> 00:02:33,194
Last night when we left, we had
about 12 feet up in the can.
48
00:02:33,195 --> 00:02:34,737
So, when we come back
this morning,
49
00:02:34,738 --> 00:02:36,656
we took the hammer grab out,
and we measured it,
50
00:02:36,657 --> 00:02:39,241
‐and it was at seven.
‐Oh, five‐foot move.
51
00:02:39,242 --> 00:02:41,535
‐Good morning. Hi.
‐Pretty good news, eh? At least to start.
52
00:02:41,536 --> 00:02:44,455
Yeah. So, we'll know here
in a minute if it's
53
00:02:44,456 --> 00:02:45,873
hopefully, it's still loose.
54
00:02:45,874 --> 00:02:47,667
But the fact
that it moved is great.
55
00:02:47,668 --> 00:02:48,918
Yeah.
56
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,170
One week ago,
57
00:02:51,171 --> 00:02:53,506
while digging
in the eight‐foot‐wide shaft
58
00:02:53,507 --> 00:02:54,674
known as RF‐1...
59
00:02:56,551 --> 00:02:58,761
...a large mass, or object,
60
00:02:58,762 --> 00:03:01,389
became lodged
inside the steel caisson
61
00:03:01,390 --> 00:03:04,684
at a depth of some 170 feet
underground.
62
00:03:04,685 --> 00:03:06,478
Broke the whole shear off.
63
00:03:07,938 --> 00:03:09,939
Boy, it's disconcerting.
64
00:03:09,940 --> 00:03:13,401
In order to dislodge it,
65
00:03:13,402 --> 00:03:15,820
the team
from Irving Equipment Limited
66
00:03:15,821 --> 00:03:18,030
has spent
the past few days resting
67
00:03:18,031 --> 00:03:21,701
the 26‐ton hammer grab tool
on top of the obstruction,
68
00:03:21,702 --> 00:03:25,079
in the hopes that the sheer
weight would push it forward
69
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,957
so that it can be retrieved.
70
00:03:27,958 --> 00:03:31,961
We're hoping, when RF‐1
gets down to where we push
71
00:03:31,962 --> 00:03:33,712
the plug ahead in H8,
72
00:03:33,713 --> 00:03:35,548
we'll try and bring up
what's in it.
73
00:03:35,549 --> 00:03:37,800
The one thing
or maybe several one things.
74
00:03:37,801 --> 00:03:42,680
Luckily, the team's strategy
appears to have worked.
75
00:03:42,681 --> 00:03:46,058
But what was the nature
of the large obstruction?
76
00:03:46,059 --> 00:03:49,186
Could it have been
the legendary Chappell Vault,
77
00:03:49,187 --> 00:03:53,232
first reported
by searchers in 1897?
78
00:03:53,233 --> 00:03:55,651
So, this is the one time
when it would be good
79
00:03:55,652 --> 00:03:58,320
to see wood coming up
in the spoils.
80
00:03:58,321 --> 00:04:01,407
If there really was
a wood interface,
81
00:04:01,408 --> 00:04:03,868
at this depth, that would have
to be the one thing.
82
00:04:03,869 --> 00:04:06,245
‐Wow.
‐It would be that important.
83
00:04:06,246 --> 00:04:08,415
Yeah.
84
00:04:34,274 --> 00:04:39,612
A void, nearly 200 feet deep
in the Money Pit area?
85
00:04:39,613 --> 00:04:42,031
Is it possible
that the large obstruction
86
00:04:42,032 --> 00:04:45,367
was once again
pushed out of the way?
87
00:04:45,368 --> 00:04:47,536
Where are we at, Vanessa?
88
00:04:47,537 --> 00:04:49,663
We are at 202,
89
00:04:49,664 --> 00:04:51,957
‐but we definitely had a void.
‐Mm‐hmm.
90
00:04:51,958 --> 00:04:53,626
Full grabs each time,
91
00:04:53,627 --> 00:04:56,378
but for him to have
only pulled up two grabs
92
00:04:56,379 --> 00:04:59,799
and us advance seven feet and
we're still at the same marker?
93
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:04,345
That means there's a void below
that the material is going into.
94
00:05:04,346 --> 00:05:06,889
Well, this is good. Good job.
95
00:05:06,890 --> 00:05:09,142
All right, well... Hey, Rick!
96
00:05:10,477 --> 00:05:12,728
202. And guess what?
97
00:05:12,729 --> 00:05:14,647
There's definitely a void.
98
00:05:14,648 --> 00:05:15,941
Oh, wow.
99
00:05:17,317 --> 00:05:18,901
Rick and I have always been
100
00:05:18,902 --> 00:05:21,946
really interested in that,
because voids would be
101
00:05:21,947 --> 00:05:25,366
a strong indication
of a man‐made tunnel.
102
00:05:25,367 --> 00:05:28,244
In the Money Pit,
there are extensive tunnelings
103
00:05:28,245 --> 00:05:31,872
and/or voids created
by the hand of man.
104
00:05:31,873 --> 00:05:34,208
So if it's a void,
105
00:05:34,209 --> 00:05:35,669
that's significant.
106
00:05:40,215 --> 00:05:41,423
That's the bucketfuls we like.
107
00:05:41,424 --> 00:05:43,050
That's a bucket. Yeah.
108
00:05:43,051 --> 00:05:45,302
We'll move right along
with buckets like that.
109
00:05:45,303 --> 00:05:47,721
‐ It's all clay, though, isn't it?
Yeah.
110
00:05:47,722 --> 00:05:49,557
Some gravel.
111
00:05:49,558 --> 00:05:51,433
‐Yeah.
‐The vast majority on the top
112
00:05:51,434 --> 00:05:53,185
‐is the‐the gravel...
‐Yeah.
113
00:05:53,186 --> 00:05:54,854
‐...or whatever material that...
‐Yeah. Yeah.
114
00:05:54,855 --> 00:05:56,730
And it's all crushed.
115
00:05:56,731 --> 00:05:59,108
‐It's not natural materials
from here. No.
116
00:05:59,109 --> 00:06:02,319
I'm concerned the material
on the backside of H8
117
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:03,946
is falling down
118
00:06:03,947 --> 00:06:06,073
‐into this hole.
‐ Yeah.
119
00:06:06,074 --> 00:06:09,034
Gravel, from nearby H8?
120
00:06:09,035 --> 00:06:12,580
Could it be the same gravel
the team used last year
121
00:06:12,581 --> 00:06:14,957
to shore up a dangerous
sinkhole in the ground
122
00:06:14,958 --> 00:06:17,585
beneath the drilling equipmen?
123
00:06:17,586 --> 00:06:20,421
‐Hello. Hello.
‐Hey, Vanessa.
124
00:06:20,422 --> 00:06:22,381
‐Well...
‐So, what do we think this is?
125
00:06:22,382 --> 00:06:24,884
This last hammer grab, to me,
that's all that came up,
126
00:06:24,885 --> 00:06:26,886
was backfill material.
127
00:06:26,887 --> 00:06:28,554
Okay.
128
00:06:28,555 --> 00:06:31,807
If it's It's got to be coming
from H8, in my mind.
129
00:06:31,808 --> 00:06:34,101
I can't think of any other one.
130
00:06:34,102 --> 00:06:35,853
This looks serious.
131
00:06:35,854 --> 00:06:38,522
Yeah. That's the concern.
132
00:06:38,523 --> 00:06:40,983
That's what it looks like.
The collapse, probably.
133
00:06:40,984 --> 00:06:42,484
‐Um...
‐If it's falling down from H8 again,
134
00:06:42,485 --> 00:06:43,903
we may have the same problem.
135
00:06:43,904 --> 00:06:45,487
Obviously, this could mean
another cave‐in,
136
00:06:45,488 --> 00:06:47,197
like happened last time.
137
00:06:47,198 --> 00:06:48,616
Where are we right now?
138
00:06:48,617 --> 00:06:50,618
So, we're eight inches
below the can.
139
00:06:50,619 --> 00:06:54,622
So, that puts us at, like,
203 and two inches.
140
00:06:54,623 --> 00:06:58,792
What's happening underground
in the Money Pit is dangerous.
141
00:06:58,793 --> 00:07:01,920
Material is moving and
it's moving quite aggressively.
142
00:07:01,921 --> 00:07:04,131
Where are you in terms
of a safety issue?
143
00:07:04,132 --> 00:07:06,425
Because safety
has to be paramount.
144
00:07:06,426 --> 00:07:08,636
Yeah. So, what we're seeing,
which is backfill
145
00:07:08,637 --> 00:07:11,597
from the shafts
we've dug in the years past
146
00:07:11,598 --> 00:07:13,140
start coming up in the can.
147
00:07:13,141 --> 00:07:15,017
Obviously, whatever solution
channel we're in,
148
00:07:15,018 --> 00:07:16,477
there's something moving
149
00:07:16,478 --> 00:07:18,354
that we're getting
our own backfill back.
150
00:07:18,355 --> 00:07:19,772
That's concerning to me.
151
00:07:19,773 --> 00:07:21,232
That's kind of
an all‐stop for me.
152
00:07:22,942 --> 00:07:25,069
Too much of a safety issue.
153
00:07:25,070 --> 00:07:28,113
I mean, you could start
losing equipment and then,
154
00:07:28,114 --> 00:07:30,449
God forbid, people or anything.
155
00:07:30,450 --> 00:07:33,160
‐So...
The bottom line is safety
156
00:07:33,161 --> 00:07:34,787
has to be the driver of this.
157
00:07:34,788 --> 00:07:36,330
And if you're concerned,
158
00:07:36,331 --> 00:07:39,626
now you have to be
seriously concerned, right?
159
00:07:43,296 --> 00:07:48,008
I don't know.
My‐my call would be...
160
00:07:48,009 --> 00:07:49,636
terminate the hole.
161
00:07:53,431 --> 00:07:56,058
Despite the team's belief
162
00:07:56,059 --> 00:07:59,728
that a historic breakthrough
may be just mere feet away,
163
00:07:59,729 --> 00:08:02,439
the dangerous condition
beneath the drill rig
164
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,692
has forced Rick,
Marty and Craig
165
00:08:04,693 --> 00:08:08,821
to end their digging operations
at the Money Pit site.
166
00:08:08,822 --> 00:08:12,408
RF‐1 remains a very frustrating
167
00:08:12,409 --> 00:08:14,660
adventure for me,
because we didn't get
168
00:08:14,661 --> 00:08:16,121
to the bottom ten feet.
169
00:08:17,580 --> 00:08:20,791
RF‐1 told me that
170
00:08:20,792 --> 00:08:22,543
there's a collapse feature
in this area.
171
00:08:22,544 --> 00:08:26,004
Now, that demands
further exploration.
172
00:08:26,005 --> 00:08:28,799
How we do that, I'm not certain.
173
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:33,345
I'm grateful for you believing
in it, for you believing in it.
174
00:08:33,346 --> 00:08:36,348
Not only you but your people
and your companies.
175
00:08:36,349 --> 00:08:38,100
Thank you. Thank you.
176
00:08:38,101 --> 00:08:41,061
We appreciate all the hard work
and all the effort, but...
177
00:08:41,062 --> 00:08:43,022
for now, we're done.
178
00:08:46,860 --> 00:08:48,986
The following day...
179
00:08:48,987 --> 00:08:51,030
I'd like to get those stones
out of here, maybe...
180
00:08:51,031 --> 00:08:53,073
...Rick and Marty
decide to shift
181
00:08:53,074 --> 00:08:56,076
their team's attention to the
massive stone‐paved formation
182
00:08:56,077 --> 00:08:58,370
that was recently discovered
at the bottom
183
00:08:58,371 --> 00:09:00,289
of the triangle‐shaped swamp.
184
00:09:00,290 --> 00:09:02,374
Hey, Billy? You think
you can get your bucket
185
00:09:02,375 --> 00:09:03,709
and pick up those stones?
186
00:09:03,710 --> 00:09:05,794
Yep.
187
00:09:05,795 --> 00:09:07,713
So, this is it, with the swamp?
188
00:09:07,714 --> 00:09:09,215
Yeah.
189
00:09:13,553 --> 00:09:16,513
‐Oh, look.
‐ What is that?
190
00:09:16,514 --> 00:09:18,474
Within the past few weeks,
191
00:09:18,475 --> 00:09:20,851
the team has discovered
a number of artifacts
192
00:09:20,852 --> 00:09:22,728
which support the theory
193
00:09:22,729 --> 00:09:25,564
that a large sailing ship,
or galleon, was at one time
194
00:09:25,565 --> 00:09:29,735
sailed between what was once
two separate islands;
195
00:09:29,736 --> 00:09:34,406
then, after a cofferdam
was constructed, burned, sunk
196
00:09:34,407 --> 00:09:38,077
and then buried in what is now
the Oak Island swamp.
197
00:09:38,078 --> 00:09:41,663
Even more intriguing is the
fact that one of the features
198
00:09:41,664 --> 00:09:44,333
of the swamp is a circular
stone construction
199
00:09:44,334 --> 00:09:46,376
known as the Eye of the Swamp,
200
00:09:46,377 --> 00:09:49,379
which geoscientist
Dr. Ian Spooner believes
201
00:09:49,380 --> 00:09:52,508
could date back
to the late 17th century.
202
00:09:52,509 --> 00:09:55,344
There's all kinds of data
adding up in the swamp
203
00:09:55,345 --> 00:09:57,763
that that area was used
for some sort of wharf,
204
00:09:57,764 --> 00:10:00,557
some sort of shipping,
some sort of docking point.
205
00:10:00,558 --> 00:10:03,560
Maybe that's what
the, uh, paved area is.
206
00:10:03,561 --> 00:10:05,604
I mean, it leads
to all kinds of conjecture.
207
00:10:05,605 --> 00:10:08,941
And as Rick has pointed out
many times, that's conjecture.
208
00:10:08,942 --> 00:10:11,443
But something happened here.
209
00:10:11,444 --> 00:10:13,445
Hold up a minute.
210
00:10:13,446 --> 00:10:14,530
We've got company.
211
00:10:14,531 --> 00:10:16,615
Doug and Dr. Spooner.
212
00:10:16,616 --> 00:10:18,575
‐ Hey, guys.
‐Gentlemen.
213
00:10:18,576 --> 00:10:20,410
Welcome back.
‐What you guys got going?
214
00:10:20,411 --> 00:10:23,956
Well, so do you
remember that squished stick,
215
00:10:23,957 --> 00:10:25,582
smashed by the rock?
216
00:10:25,583 --> 00:10:27,709
‐Mm‐hmm.
‐We got the date.
217
00:10:27,710 --> 00:10:30,671
And so, we just got
them back yesterday.
218
00:10:30,672 --> 00:10:32,422
The dates are
rather extraordinary.
219
00:10:32,423 --> 00:10:33,841
We kind of rushed down here.
220
00:10:33,842 --> 00:10:36,135
It's gonna,
I think, be important.
221
00:10:36,136 --> 00:10:40,430
While investigating
the stone‐paved area this year,
222
00:10:40,431 --> 00:10:42,474
Dr. Spooner discovered
a number of tree branches
223
00:10:42,475 --> 00:10:45,477
embedded within
the layers of rock.
224
00:10:45,478 --> 00:10:48,480
This stick will tell me
when that stone was placed.
225
00:10:48,481 --> 00:10:51,317
If you date the stick,
you know when that happened.
226
00:10:53,153 --> 00:10:56,864
So this is the paved area,
which was
227
00:10:56,865 --> 00:11:00,159
a disturbed area, you know,
disturbed by humans.
228
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:01,368
Right.
229
00:11:01,369 --> 00:11:03,078
There's the dates we're getting.
230
00:11:03,079 --> 00:11:04,789
‐Wow.
‐Yeah.
231
00:11:06,875 --> 00:11:08,500
‐What are they?
‐Around...
232
00:11:08,501 --> 00:11:10,711
1200 AD.
233
00:11:12,172 --> 00:11:14,965
‐Medieval.
‐Medieval, baby!
234
00:11:14,966 --> 00:11:17,134
1200 AD?
235
00:11:17,135 --> 00:11:18,927
More than 800 years ago?
236
00:11:18,928 --> 00:11:21,638
And nearly six centuries
before the Money Pit
237
00:11:21,639 --> 00:11:24,433
was discovered in 1795?
238
00:11:24,434 --> 00:11:27,603
‐That's consistent with the first one.
‐That's for the paved area, yep.
239
00:11:27,604 --> 00:11:29,479
Well, to borrow an expression
from Gary,
240
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,398
I'm gobsmacked by this date,
241
00:11:31,399 --> 00:11:34,276
because I can't really fit
that into anything.
242
00:11:34,277 --> 00:11:37,112
That's big, okay,
but I don't know as I sit here
243
00:11:37,113 --> 00:11:38,614
right now what the heck
to make of it.
244
00:11:38,615 --> 00:11:42,451
We now have two puzzles, i. e.,
245
00:11:42,452 --> 00:11:45,078
we have a swamp story
and a Money Pit story.
246
00:11:45,079 --> 00:11:47,414
I hope that they are related,
but, boy, right now
247
00:11:47,415 --> 00:11:50,042
as we sit here, it's hard
to put the two together.
248
00:11:50,043 --> 00:11:53,170
Unbelievable! That's what
comes to mind unbelievable.
249
00:11:53,171 --> 00:11:56,715
When we get this much data
that's so awe‐inspiring
250
00:11:56,716 --> 00:11:58,884
and so difficult to digest, it's
time to head for the war room.
251
00:11:58,885 --> 00:12:01,553
‐Yeah.
‐And kick this around amongst the whole team.
252
00:12:01,554 --> 00:12:03,972
This was great, Dr. Spooner.
253
00:12:03,973 --> 00:12:05,390
‐Thank you very much.
‐Oh, you're welcome.
254
00:12:05,391 --> 00:12:07,727
Well, let's go figure it out.
255
00:12:15,193 --> 00:12:17,277
The next day,
and still excited
256
00:12:17,278 --> 00:12:20,405
by the results of Dr. Spooner's
impressive research,
257
00:12:20,406 --> 00:12:23,909
Rick, Marty, Craig
and the Oak Island team
258
00:12:23,910 --> 00:12:25,994
gather for what is, perhaps,
259
00:12:25,995 --> 00:12:28,580
this year's final meeting in
the war room.
260
00:12:28,581 --> 00:12:31,124
‐Hey, guys.
As preparation for the meeting,
261
00:12:31,125 --> 00:12:34,002
Rick and Marty have also
arranged for Charles Barkhouse
262
00:12:34,003 --> 00:12:36,588
to place this year's most
significant finds
263
00:12:36,589 --> 00:12:40,592
along with several others
in a kind of timeline,
264
00:12:40,593 --> 00:12:44,596
one which stretches all the way
back to the 12th century.
265
00:12:44,597 --> 00:12:48,475
Quite an amazing display
and we're gonna get into it
266
00:12:48,476 --> 00:12:50,978
in a little bit because we have
a lot to discuss today.
267
00:12:50,979 --> 00:12:52,479
I want to thank Charles.
268
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,648
Uh, Rick and I
asked him to do this,
269
00:12:54,649 --> 00:12:57,317
to set these things up
in this order,
270
00:12:57,318 --> 00:12:58,652
‐sort of by year...
‐Yes.
271
00:12:58,653 --> 00:13:00,279
...and that's obviously
what you did.
272
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,364
By a hundred years.
273
00:13:02,365 --> 00:13:04,283
Yeah, there's,
that's just the point.
274
00:13:04,284 --> 00:13:05,492
Isn't it, Dave?
275
00:13:05,493 --> 00:13:06,868
Look how many years are here.
276
00:13:06,869 --> 00:13:09,288
Way before 1795.
277
00:13:09,289 --> 00:13:11,748
‐That's‐that's...
‐We're down here around 1100s.
278
00:13:11,749 --> 00:13:13,875
The timeline puts it
all in context,
279
00:13:13,876 --> 00:13:16,253
particularly regarding,
if you look at
280
00:13:16,254 --> 00:13:19,047
to scale let's say,
from 1795 to present
281
00:13:19,048 --> 00:13:22,634
is about this big,
but from 1795
282
00:13:22,635 --> 00:13:25,512
back to where we're
finding data is that big,
283
00:13:25,513 --> 00:13:27,639
so it's just amazing to see it
284
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,308
spread out on
the table like that.
285
00:13:29,309 --> 00:13:31,476
‐Yeah.
‐I mean, when I came on this island
286
00:13:31,477 --> 00:13:35,230
with Rick, I thought
there was a good chance
287
00:13:35,231 --> 00:13:38,025
that nothing would be
found before this line.
288
00:13:38,026 --> 00:13:39,318
‐ Right.
‐I really did.
289
00:13:39,319 --> 00:13:40,485
I thought perhaps that,
290
00:13:40,486 --> 00:13:43,822
you know, this is all just...
291
00:13:43,823 --> 00:13:45,365
‐collective madness.
292
00:13:45,366 --> 00:13:47,034
But we have a lot of data here.
293
00:13:47,035 --> 00:13:48,660
The finds...
294
00:13:48,661 --> 00:13:50,412
I wish they could talk because
295
00:13:50,413 --> 00:13:52,664
there is certainly a story here.
296
00:13:52,665 --> 00:13:56,001
And the hope is that,
as part of this process,
297
00:13:56,002 --> 00:13:59,296
we'll be able to mine
some of that story
298
00:13:59,297 --> 00:14:02,007
and also see where
we are in terms of the...
299
00:14:02,008 --> 00:14:03,675
the process, the search agenda,
300
00:14:03,676 --> 00:14:06,094
the investigation,
unraveling the mystery.
301
00:14:06,095 --> 00:14:08,680
‐Absolutely.
‐Yes.
302
00:14:08,681 --> 00:14:11,099
Well, the Dr. Spooner date
of 1200 for the swamp.
303
00:14:11,100 --> 00:14:13,351
I mean, the cross...
304
00:14:13,352 --> 00:14:16,271
1300 are we really
now surprised
305
00:14:16,272 --> 00:14:19,608
that Dr. Spooner dates
the swamp back to 1200?
306
00:14:19,609 --> 00:14:21,401
‐Yes. ‐Yes.
‐We've actually
307
00:14:21,402 --> 00:14:23,361
I'm not, because
we've got an artifact.
308
00:14:23,362 --> 00:14:25,530
‐Yes.
‐And I feel like the Templars
309
00:14:25,531 --> 00:14:27,949
had something to do
with Oak Island.
310
00:14:27,950 --> 00:14:30,535
This would have been
a useful place for them and
311
00:14:30,536 --> 00:14:34,748
they might have seen it
as a place to store some wealth.
312
00:14:34,749 --> 00:14:36,541
Yeah, we've got a date
and we've got an artifact
313
00:14:36,542 --> 00:14:37,918
you can hold in your hand.
314
00:14:37,919 --> 00:14:40,253
And we have
a massive paved area.
315
00:14:40,254 --> 00:14:41,963
The paved area is far
bigger that what we've,
316
00:14:41,964 --> 00:14:43,882
I've even shown you guys,
so, today...
317
00:14:43,883 --> 00:14:46,551
‐Why‐why do you say that?
‐I can tell you now,
318
00:14:46,552 --> 00:14:48,428
based on just the strategic
digs that we've done,
319
00:14:48,429 --> 00:14:50,388
the paved area, I checked
before we came in here,
320
00:14:50,389 --> 00:14:52,724
is 80 by 170 feet.
321
00:14:52,725 --> 00:14:53,975
‐Really?
‐Yeah.
322
00:14:53,976 --> 00:14:55,102
And when you connect the dots,
323
00:14:55,103 --> 00:14:57,604
they form an 80 by 170 foot,
324
00:14:57,605 --> 00:15:00,023
not a perfect rectangle, but...
325
00:15:00,024 --> 00:15:02,109
Mm‐hmm, that's
almost half an acre.
326
00:15:02,110 --> 00:15:04,402
That is just in,
in a sense, isn't it?
327
00:15:04,403 --> 00:15:05,654
That data's just in.
328
00:15:05,655 --> 00:15:06,822
‐I didn't know it was that big.
‐Mm‐hmm.
329
00:15:06,823 --> 00:15:09,074
I think it probably, uh...
330
00:15:09,075 --> 00:15:10,826
Dr. Ian Spooner said that
there was an open channel.
331
00:15:10,827 --> 00:15:13,245
I think it probably,
if you go back to the 1200s,
332
00:15:13,246 --> 00:15:14,955
it probably connects
to that open channel.
333
00:15:14,956 --> 00:15:16,832
‐Was an open channel.
‐Was an open channel.
334
00:15:16,833 --> 00:15:18,834
‐Yeah.
‐ What I enjoyed
335
00:15:18,835 --> 00:15:20,836
most about Ian Spooner and the,
336
00:15:20,837 --> 00:15:23,130
uh, paved area was
the fact that he...
337
00:15:23,131 --> 00:15:26,049
was reluctant to play
into the timeline.
338
00:15:26,050 --> 00:15:29,261
He‐he was kind of fighting it
and fighting it,
339
00:15:29,262 --> 00:15:31,596
relying on the evidence,
and this is what came
340
00:15:31,597 --> 00:15:33,849
out of the hard
scientific evidence.
341
00:15:33,850 --> 00:15:37,060
‐You buy it, too?
‐Uh, obviously, I don't think
342
00:15:37,061 --> 00:15:38,770
‐You can't dispute it.
‐No, I‐I'm asking, yeah.
343
00:15:38,771 --> 00:15:40,355
It's not disputable.
344
00:15:40,356 --> 00:15:41,773
‐Wow.
‐And I would have
345
00:15:41,774 --> 00:15:43,233
It's the last thing I would
have expected
346
00:15:43,234 --> 00:15:45,277
‐in the swamp.
‐Mm‐hmm.
347
00:15:45,278 --> 00:15:47,988
And to have him say
it's‐it's man‐made...
348
00:15:47,989 --> 00:15:50,198
‐was significant.
‐Not just him.
349
00:15:50,199 --> 00:15:52,284
‐Yeah, yeah.
‐Also you, also him.
350
00:15:52,285 --> 00:15:54,369
‐Yeah, yeah.
‐Yes. Yeah.
351
00:15:54,370 --> 00:15:56,121
‐A whole bunch of experts.
‐ You know, when we started
352
00:15:56,122 --> 00:15:57,622
this year, I mean, you weren't
353
00:15:57,623 --> 00:15:59,332
the biggest fan of the swamp.
354
00:15:59,333 --> 00:16:01,209
No, I'm still not, Tom, sorry.
355
00:16:01,210 --> 00:16:02,836
And I said,
356
00:16:02,837 --> 00:16:05,213
I said going in, I said,
something happened there.
357
00:16:05,214 --> 00:16:07,132
Man had a hand in that swamp.
358
00:16:07,133 --> 00:16:09,301
You said, if there's
something to be found,
359
00:16:09,302 --> 00:16:11,970
there's‐there's, uh,
answers in the swamp.
360
00:16:11,971 --> 00:16:14,306
‐Yeah, so what do you think now?
‐Yeah.
361
00:16:14,307 --> 00:16:16,057
At 1200, really?
362
00:16:16,058 --> 00:16:18,810
And‐and somebody as hard
to move as Laird
363
00:16:18,811 --> 00:16:21,313
sitting over there saying,
yeah, it's for sure,
364
00:16:21,314 --> 00:16:23,356
it's man‐made,
everybody agrees,
365
00:16:23,357 --> 00:16:24,733
and there's twigs
that date it to that.
366
00:16:24,734 --> 00:16:25,859
It's amazing.
367
00:16:25,860 --> 00:16:26,902
No, you were, you were right.
368
00:16:26,903 --> 00:16:28,403
Rick was right, um, there were,
369
00:16:28,404 --> 00:16:29,738
there were answers in the swamp.
370
00:16:29,739 --> 00:16:31,323
We just don't know
what the questions are.
371
00:16:31,324 --> 00:16:32,616
We don't know what
the question was. (laughs)
372
00:16:32,617 --> 00:16:33,992
Yeah.
373
00:16:33,993 --> 00:16:36,119
Well, you know, Dad spent
374
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:37,996
a lot of time in that bog
and I mean, you
375
00:16:37,997 --> 00:16:41,082
you know, we probably
found as much as he did
376
00:16:41,083 --> 00:16:43,585
in his years in there,
but it's, you know,
377
00:16:43,586 --> 00:16:46,379
it's‐it's nice to see that
it wasn't all for nothing.
378
00:16:46,380 --> 00:16:50,383
Maybe the Money Pit, you know,
and the bog is tied in.
379
00:16:50,384 --> 00:16:51,968
I don't know,
but there's, something
380
00:16:51,969 --> 00:16:53,845
‐happened there a long time ago.
‐ Yeah.
381
00:16:53,846 --> 00:16:57,182
There's something about
that bog that ties this
382
00:16:57,183 --> 00:16:59,518
maybe this whole thing together.
383
00:17:03,856 --> 00:17:05,941
Gary, there's quite a lot of
things that we've been told
384
00:17:05,942 --> 00:17:07,651
can be used in tunneling.
385
00:17:07,652 --> 00:17:09,027
Do you think there
might've been tunneling
386
00:17:09,028 --> 00:17:10,862
outside of the Money Pit area?
387
00:17:10,863 --> 00:17:12,030
Yeah, I do.
388
00:17:12,031 --> 00:17:13,698
I mean, why would we be finding
389
00:17:13,699 --> 00:17:16,743
picks at the back of the swamp.
390
00:17:16,744 --> 00:17:19,704
These swages on Lot 21.
391
00:17:19,705 --> 00:17:22,165
Yeah, it's possible that
392
00:17:22,166 --> 00:17:24,251
tunneling could have been
done in other parts
393
00:17:24,252 --> 00:17:26,503
‐of the island.
‐Yep.
394
00:17:26,504 --> 00:17:30,590
Now look at that
that is a really old pick!
395
00:17:30,591 --> 00:17:33,385
For generations,
treasure hunters have believed
396
00:17:33,386 --> 00:17:35,345
that an elaborate
tunneling system
397
00:17:35,346 --> 00:17:38,056
exists deep below Oak Island.
398
00:17:38,057 --> 00:17:41,476
This year, in addition
to finding an 18th century
399
00:17:41,477 --> 00:17:44,563
pickax near the so‐called
Eye of the Swamp...
400
00:17:44,564 --> 00:17:46,106
Feel how heavy that is, Rick.
401
00:17:46,107 --> 00:17:48,775
‐Wow! Wow!
402
00:17:48,776 --> 00:17:50,402
...the team found
two metal swages,
403
00:17:50,403 --> 00:17:54,030
which were used
to sharpen tunneling tools.
404
00:17:54,031 --> 00:17:57,534
They also found
an iron chisel on property
405
00:17:57,535 --> 00:18:00,203
which once belonged
to Daniel McGinnis,
406
00:18:00,204 --> 00:18:02,372
one of the three
young men who first
407
00:18:02,373 --> 00:18:06,210
discovered the original
Money Pit in 1795.
408
00:18:11,090 --> 00:18:13,425
‐Wow.
‐ Even more incredible
409
00:18:13,426 --> 00:18:16,886
is the fact that these objects
were dated to be as much
410
00:18:16,887 --> 00:18:20,098
as 600 years old.
411
00:18:20,099 --> 00:18:24,185
To me, the most significant
finds are the tools.
412
00:18:24,186 --> 00:18:28,773
These are the tools of the trade
of the people that was working
413
00:18:28,774 --> 00:18:31,234
on Oak Island, from the swages,
414
00:18:31,235 --> 00:18:33,236
the hand‐point chisel,
415
00:18:33,237 --> 00:18:35,614
even these things that
we're not sure what they are.
416
00:18:35,615 --> 00:18:38,116
I mean, we're finally pushing
417
00:18:38,117 --> 00:18:41,703
this story back so far, much
further back than I thought.
418
00:18:41,704 --> 00:18:44,247
I thought it was,
like, a pirate operation.
419
00:18:44,248 --> 00:18:49,461
Now look at these tools going
back to the 14 and 1500s.
420
00:18:49,462 --> 00:18:50,754
The problem is the dates
don't match up with that.
421
00:18:50,755 --> 00:18:52,255
The paved area, you say,
422
00:18:52,256 --> 00:18:53,632
is 1200s to 1400s, these are...
423
00:18:53,633 --> 00:18:55,342
They‐they could be that old,
I suppose.
424
00:18:55,343 --> 00:18:58,428
Mm‐hmm, they match up more
with the Eye of the Swamp.
425
00:18:58,429 --> 00:18:59,804
‐Yeah.
‐Which they're calling
426
00:18:59,805 --> 00:19:01,264
‐late 1600s, which is still...
‐Right.
427
00:19:01,265 --> 00:19:03,808
‐...long before this timeline.
‐Right.
428
00:19:03,809 --> 00:19:06,436
We know during specific dates,
429
00:19:06,437 --> 00:19:08,396
large amounts of work
went on on Oak Island
430
00:19:08,397 --> 00:19:11,483
in at least
two different clumps of time.
431
00:19:11,484 --> 00:19:13,151
You know, you've got the 1600s,
432
00:19:13,152 --> 00:19:15,153
which it fits
with the Rosicrucians
433
00:19:15,154 --> 00:19:16,863
and the Francis Bacon theories.
434
00:19:16,864 --> 00:19:19,991
You've got the 11 to 1400s,
435
00:19:19,992 --> 00:19:22,994
which fits right in
with the Templar theories.
436
00:19:22,995 --> 00:19:24,871
‐Yes.
‐And...
437
00:19:24,872 --> 00:19:27,707
we have dendro information
from the slipway
438
00:19:27,708 --> 00:19:30,794
that someone was there
doing a lot of work
439
00:19:30,795 --> 00:19:34,005
‐before searchers.
‐That's right.
440
00:19:34,006 --> 00:19:38,176
After installing a
6,000‐square‐foot extension
441
00:19:38,177 --> 00:19:40,136
or "bump out"
to the steel cofferdam
442
00:19:40,137 --> 00:19:42,472
surrounding Smith's Cove,
443
00:19:42,473 --> 00:19:45,684
the team unearthed
a massive log structure
444
00:19:45,685 --> 00:19:47,352
while looking for
the end of the slipway
445
00:19:47,353 --> 00:19:49,145
that they discovered last yea,
446
00:19:49,146 --> 00:19:52,982
and which was dated to 1769.
447
00:19:52,983 --> 00:19:55,985
Incredibly, after using
dendrochronology,
448
00:19:55,986 --> 00:19:57,862
or tree‐ring dating,
449
00:19:57,863 --> 00:20:01,700
this new structure was found
to be significantly older.
450
00:20:01,701 --> 00:20:04,369
It's a little head scratcher.
451
00:20:04,370 --> 00:20:05,870
Uh‐oh.
452
00:20:05,871 --> 00:20:07,122
1741.
453
00:20:07,123 --> 00:20:08,540
Whoa!
454
00:20:13,754 --> 00:20:16,381
That significant structure
455
00:20:16,382 --> 00:20:18,550
was being used
for quite a long time.
456
00:20:18,551 --> 00:20:22,345
Was it for finding this
treasure? I don't know.
457
00:20:22,346 --> 00:20:25,056
Um, it could have been
but, you know,
458
00:20:25,057 --> 00:20:28,476
once the searchers started,
that we call searchers,
459
00:20:28,477 --> 00:20:31,020
I don't think any of them
found it because, you know,
460
00:20:31,021 --> 00:20:32,522
there's no record of anybody
461
00:20:32,523 --> 00:20:33,815
‐becoming rich.
‐ No, no.
462
00:20:33,816 --> 00:20:35,942
‐Not a great treasure, yeah.
‐OTHERS: Yes.
463
00:20:35,943 --> 00:20:40,363
All of this changes the mystery
as we know it, though,
464
00:20:40,364 --> 00:20:43,700
because it was supposed to be
an uninhabited island...
465
00:20:43,701 --> 00:20:47,412
‐Yeah. ‐...in 1795, when the treasure
hunt began as we know it.
466
00:20:47,413 --> 00:20:49,831
But this has shown us
that there was a story,
467
00:20:49,832 --> 00:20:52,083
and there was activity going on
here much earlier.
468
00:20:52,084 --> 00:20:55,253
And on possibly a very
continual basis,
469
00:20:55,254 --> 00:20:58,089
whether it's the same group
or not.
470
00:20:58,090 --> 00:21:00,091
And as Craig remarked
a little earlier,
471
00:21:00,092 --> 00:21:04,721
‐there's a lot converging on the late 1600s.
In that area.
472
00:21:04,722 --> 00:21:07,557
I think, looking
at the artifacts that are here
473
00:21:07,558 --> 00:21:10,268
and the dates that are,
are given,
474
00:21:10,269 --> 00:21:11,770
I think there isn't
a theorist out there
475
00:21:11,771 --> 00:21:13,062
that isn't gonna be happy with
476
00:21:13,063 --> 00:21:14,898
what we have on the table
here now.
477
00:21:14,899 --> 00:21:16,941
Everybody's gonna see something
that they, uh
478
00:21:16,942 --> 00:21:18,777
pertains to their theory.
479
00:21:18,778 --> 00:21:20,904
You know, I think that's
probably right.
480
00:21:20,905 --> 00:21:22,572
Y‐You look back here
481
00:21:22,573 --> 00:21:26,159
at earlier Templar theories.
482
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,578
We've got dates that come back
to the 1300s.
483
00:21:28,579 --> 00:21:31,956
We have an artifact
that is 1300,
484
00:21:31,957 --> 00:21:36,586
or possibly even earlier that
linked back to France and Dome.
485
00:21:36,587 --> 00:21:40,632
The thoughts about, uh,
Nolan's Cross and the‐the swamp.
486
00:21:40,633 --> 00:21:43,009
I mean, something happened
in the swamp.
487
00:21:43,010 --> 00:21:44,636
Yes.
488
00:21:44,637 --> 00:21:46,763
We have empirical evidence
of that now,
489
00:21:46,764 --> 00:21:49,057
and we have science
that is dated
490
00:21:49,058 --> 00:21:51,309
to the time period
in which it occurred.
491
00:21:51,310 --> 00:21:53,520
So the prevailing theories,
492
00:21:53,521 --> 00:21:56,105
they've all been
enhanced by this, in a sense.
493
00:21:56,106 --> 00:21:58,274
I would say more or less,
Marty, yes.
494
00:21:58,275 --> 00:22:00,652
Yeah. And a lot of
those theories
495
00:22:00,653 --> 00:22:03,321
rely on inscribed stones.
496
00:22:03,322 --> 00:22:05,490
We've got a hand‐point chisel,
and it could have been used
497
00:22:05,491 --> 00:22:08,076
for inscribing
on a lot of those stones.
498
00:22:08,077 --> 00:22:09,786
‐Yes.
‐Yeah.
499
00:22:09,787 --> 00:22:12,622
By the way, I have something
in my pocket...
500
00:22:12,623 --> 00:22:14,666
Oh, I know what this is.
501
00:22:14,667 --> 00:22:16,167
Yeah, you do.
502
00:22:16,168 --> 00:22:18,503
That also is
actually tells quite a story.
503
00:22:18,504 --> 00:22:21,172
But‐but this happened...
504
00:22:21,173 --> 00:22:22,298
And it belongs at that end
of the table.
505
00:22:22,299 --> 00:22:23,759
It belongs way over there, yeah.
506
00:22:30,766 --> 00:22:32,559
This is a...
507
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,812
a rather ordinary toonie.
508
00:22:35,813 --> 00:22:38,773
But guess what.
That's my toonie.
509
00:22:38,774 --> 00:22:41,901
That's the one I put down H8.
510
00:22:41,902 --> 00:22:44,237
Two years ago,
511
00:22:44,238 --> 00:22:48,157
after drilling a six‐inch‐wide
borehole known as H8,
512
00:22:48,158 --> 00:22:51,452
the Oak Island team made a
number of shocking discoveries
513
00:22:51,453 --> 00:22:54,289
that included ancient pottery,
514
00:22:54,290 --> 00:22:57,292
pieces of parchment
and leather bookbinding,
515
00:22:57,293 --> 00:23:00,712
and 17th century human bones.
516
00:23:00,713 --> 00:23:03,715
Believing that they may have
finally found
517
00:23:03,716 --> 00:23:06,259
the original Money Pit,
but concerned that the contents
518
00:23:06,260 --> 00:23:09,596
of the fabled treasure vault
may have drifted over time,
519
00:23:09,597 --> 00:23:13,308
Marty Lagina decided to
try an experiment.
520
00:23:13,309 --> 00:23:16,144
Here's the test: are we gonna
find this or not, right?
521
00:23:16,145 --> 00:23:17,812
Into the six‐inch‐wide
borehole,
522
00:23:17,813 --> 00:23:20,106
he tossed a $2 Canadian coin,
523
00:23:20,107 --> 00:23:23,902
otherwise known as a "toonie."
524
00:23:23,903 --> 00:23:27,322
He was hoping that if he ever
located the coin
525
00:23:27,323 --> 00:23:30,074
during a future dig,
he would be able to see
526
00:23:30,075 --> 00:23:33,912
if it had drifted, and if so,
by how much.
527
00:23:36,457 --> 00:23:39,500
‐Just there.
528
00:23:39,501 --> 00:23:42,587
Incredibly, one week
ago, while searching spoils
529
00:23:42,588 --> 00:23:45,381
retrieved from over
200 feet deep
530
00:23:45,382 --> 00:23:47,842
in the nearby RF‐1 shaft,
531
00:23:47,843 --> 00:23:50,595
Marty and Gary found the coin.
532
00:23:50,596 --> 00:23:53,223
Hey, did you hear
that little clink?
533
00:23:54,683 --> 00:23:56,602
Ooh, it's a coin!
534
00:23:59,563 --> 00:24:03,608
Oh! Frickin' modern toonie!
535
00:24:03,609 --> 00:24:05,485
Geez.
536
00:24:05,486 --> 00:24:07,195
Not in very good condition,
either.
537
00:24:07,196 --> 00:24:09,072
Put it in your pocket.
538
00:24:09,073 --> 00:24:10,698
Not what we're looking for.
539
00:24:10,699 --> 00:24:12,284
Keep going.
540
00:24:20,042 --> 00:24:21,292
Hey, Gary, wait a minute.
541
00:24:21,293 --> 00:24:23,836
Let me see that.
Let me see that toonie.
542
00:24:23,837 --> 00:24:26,798
‐Oh, the toonie.
‐Yeah.
543
00:24:26,799 --> 00:24:28,299
It's modern, mate.
544
00:24:28,300 --> 00:24:30,970
I know. Let me see it.
I'm having a thought.
545
00:24:36,183 --> 00:24:38,393
It's not old.
546
00:24:38,394 --> 00:24:40,061
Yeah, but, Gary,
this has been in the dirt
547
00:24:40,062 --> 00:24:41,647
for quite some time.
548
00:24:44,191 --> 00:24:47,652
Look how it's encrusted
with it.
549
00:24:47,653 --> 00:24:51,030
I think me and that toonie
have been acquainted before.
550
00:24:51,031 --> 00:24:53,409
‐Is that...?
‐That's my toonie, buddy.
551
00:24:55,411 --> 00:24:58,913
If you think about the center
of that plastic pipe
552
00:24:58,914 --> 00:25:02,041
to the center of RF‐1
is probably what?
553
00:25:02,042 --> 00:25:04,669
‐Probably ten feet?
‐Probably ten feet, so that toonie
554
00:25:04,670 --> 00:25:08,673
traveled ten feet underground
in that solution channel.
555
00:25:08,674 --> 00:25:11,676
It could have made that distance
in a day. Literally.
556
00:25:11,677 --> 00:25:14,387
It could have fallen out
the bottom when I dropped it,
557
00:25:14,388 --> 00:25:16,389
and that's why we didn't
find it. In fact,
558
00:25:16,390 --> 00:25:19,058
it's likely it traveled the
first year, right?
559
00:25:19,059 --> 00:25:21,978
‐Yeah.
‐Or we probably should have got it.
560
00:25:21,979 --> 00:25:25,064
So, I mean,
that's proof positive
561
00:25:25,065 --> 00:25:28,443
that metal objects, at least,
can move quite readily.
562
00:25:28,444 --> 00:25:30,570
Rick was saying, "I wish
these things could talk."
563
00:25:30,571 --> 00:25:32,739
That one's talking.
564
00:25:32,740 --> 00:25:35,742
Could the discovery
of Marty's toonie
565
00:25:35,743 --> 00:25:38,244
in the spoils recovered
from RF‐1
566
00:25:38,245 --> 00:25:42,081
be evidence that
the original contents of H8
567
00:25:42,082 --> 00:25:44,876
could have, like the elusive
Chappell Vault,
568
00:25:44,877 --> 00:25:47,545
been swept not only
deeper underground,
569
00:25:47,546 --> 00:25:50,381
but also several feet away?
570
00:25:50,382 --> 00:25:54,135
It's for sure that stuff is
moving around horizontally
571
00:25:54,136 --> 00:25:55,553
as well as vertically.
572
00:25:55,554 --> 00:25:58,473
Well, that's good because
it might explain why
573
00:25:58,474 --> 00:26:01,059
nobody's been able to find
this elusive treasure.
574
00:26:01,060 --> 00:26:04,896
It's bad because it explains why
no one's been able to find
575
00:26:04,897 --> 00:26:07,732
this elusive treasure;
it's gonna be difficult.
576
00:26:07,733 --> 00:26:09,984
So if there is a treasure,
577
00:26:09,985 --> 00:26:13,738
now, how far could this treasure
have possibly moved?
578
00:26:13,739 --> 00:26:16,532
With all of the
activities and tunnels
579
00:26:16,533 --> 00:26:18,034
and shafts
and the water movement,
580
00:26:18,035 --> 00:26:19,911
it could very definitely
drop down.
581
00:26:19,912 --> 00:26:23,498
The density of gold is
19 times greater than water.
582
00:26:23,499 --> 00:26:26,375
It has a specific gravity
of 19 and some and change.
583
00:26:26,376 --> 00:26:28,711
Well, that would drop
straight down to the bottom
584
00:26:28,712 --> 00:26:30,088
of that Money Pit.
585
00:26:30,089 --> 00:26:32,131
And I'm not surprised
that there might be
586
00:26:32,132 --> 00:26:33,091
a vertical movement.
587
00:26:33,092 --> 00:26:34,842
But to have eight feet of
588
00:26:34,843 --> 00:26:36,427
‐Was it eight, or...?
‐At least.
589
00:26:36,428 --> 00:26:39,597
Ten.
‐Ten feet of lateral movement,
590
00:26:39,598 --> 00:26:41,933
that speaks to currents
down there.
591
00:26:41,934 --> 00:26:43,726
So with all of the...
592
00:26:43,727 --> 00:26:45,937
banging and pumping that's
gone on through the years,
593
00:26:45,938 --> 00:26:50,233
the Money Pit area is nothing
like what it would have been
594
00:26:50,234 --> 00:26:52,110
at the time of any
potential emplacement.
595
00:26:52,111 --> 00:26:53,945
We were looking for signs
of a deep collapse
596
00:26:53,946 --> 00:26:56,989
in what we believed to be
the original Money Pit area.
597
00:26:56,990 --> 00:26:59,534
We found signs of deep collapse.
598
00:26:59,535 --> 00:27:01,953
And we've always looked above
160 feet, basically.
599
00:27:01,954 --> 00:27:05,414
Now we know we have to
move deeper.
600
00:27:05,415 --> 00:27:07,667
Well, we have to think of this
in context of something
601
00:27:07,668 --> 00:27:10,169
having been here once,
and then maybe
602
00:27:10,170 --> 00:27:11,462
recovery efforts
when you see all this.
603
00:27:11,463 --> 00:27:14,173
And maybe recovery successes.
604
00:27:14,174 --> 00:27:15,967
So having framed it that way,
605
00:27:15,968 --> 00:27:17,885
does the fellowship
still think that
606
00:27:17,886 --> 00:27:19,930
there's something here to find?
607
00:27:24,643 --> 00:27:26,727
Yes. Definitely.
608
00:27:26,728 --> 00:27:28,729
‐Yeah.
‐Yeah.
609
00:27:28,730 --> 00:27:30,565
Does everybody?
610
00:27:30,566 --> 00:27:33,484
‐I do.
Yes. Absolutely.
611
00:27:33,485 --> 00:27:35,570
I agree with Doug.
I think we‐we have
612
00:27:35,571 --> 00:27:38,698
‐a new mystery here to discover.
‐Yes, we do.
613
00:27:38,699 --> 00:27:40,741
But yes, there's treasure here.
614
00:27:40,742 --> 00:27:43,160
You just haven't found it yet,
but it's here.
615
00:27:43,161 --> 00:27:45,830
I think it's still here.
616
00:27:45,831 --> 00:27:48,499
Dad thought that there was
something here. I believed him.
617
00:27:48,500 --> 00:27:50,626
‐Okay.
‐And I still do.
618
00:27:50,627 --> 00:27:52,670
Like Charles, we haven't looked
in the right spot.
619
00:27:52,671 --> 00:27:54,088
Well, that I'm sure of.
620
00:27:54,089 --> 00:27:55,715
We're running out of
real estate, though,
621
00:27:55,716 --> 00:27:57,758
‐in some places.
‐
622
00:27:57,759 --> 00:27:59,844
‐And perhaps money and time and...
‐Yeah, yeah.
623
00:27:59,845 --> 00:28:01,888
Well, based on some
of the things
624
00:28:01,889 --> 00:28:05,016
we've uncovered
in the swamp this year
625
00:28:05,017 --> 00:28:07,351
I mean, I know
it's all about treasure.
626
00:28:07,352 --> 00:28:10,396
‐Gold. Spendables, Dave.
‐That's right.
627
00:28:10,397 --> 00:28:13,524
But how do you put a price
on something
628
00:28:13,525 --> 00:28:17,111
that might change history,
or rewrite a bit of history?
629
00:28:17,112 --> 00:28:18,779
Because this stuff is old.
630
00:28:18,780 --> 00:28:21,867
I mean, it's‐it's just
it shouldn't be there.
631
00:28:23,201 --> 00:28:27,622
You know, my dad spent
almost a lifetime here
632
00:28:27,623 --> 00:28:30,082
looking for this thing,
whatever it is.
633
00:28:30,083 --> 00:28:32,209
And‐and so did Dan.
634
00:28:32,210 --> 00:28:35,421
So for their sake,
I'd like to think
635
00:28:35,422 --> 00:28:38,007
that there is still
a treasure here to be found.
636
00:28:38,008 --> 00:28:40,426
Right.
637
00:28:40,427 --> 00:28:41,677
I can see Laird thinking
638
00:28:41,678 --> 00:28:43,220
from here he's thinking.
He's thinking,
639
00:28:43,221 --> 00:28:45,181
‐"What am I gonna say?"
‐"Oh, no, it's my turn."
640
00:28:45,182 --> 00:28:46,307
Yeah.
641
00:28:46,308 --> 00:28:48,267
Well,
642
00:28:48,268 --> 00:28:51,896
if we look at the science
and the archaeology, um...
643
00:28:51,897 --> 00:28:53,689
something happened.
644
00:28:53,690 --> 00:28:56,567
We have hard
scientific evidence for that.
645
00:28:56,568 --> 00:28:58,569
Whether it involves treasure,
I couldn't say.
646
00:28:58,570 --> 00:29:02,365
Um, but something significant
happened, and...
647
00:29:02,366 --> 00:29:05,952
it's really,
it seems to be worth pursuing.
648
00:29:05,953 --> 00:29:08,746
It's obviously worth pursuing.
649
00:29:08,747 --> 00:29:11,290
Dan Henskee,
what's your thoughts?
650
00:29:11,291 --> 00:29:13,292
Is there treasure still here?
651
00:29:13,293 --> 00:29:15,294
And of course,
I can't say definitively
652
00:29:15,295 --> 00:29:17,296
one way or the other.
653
00:29:17,297 --> 00:29:18,839
If you had to put an odds on it?
654
00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:21,425
I'm an odd guy
but not an odds guy.
655
00:29:24,012 --> 00:29:25,805
How about, let me
try it this way.
656
00:29:25,806 --> 00:29:27,932
Is it worth continuing
to search?
657
00:29:27,933 --> 00:29:30,101
Well, the‐the sneaky way out
is to say,
658
00:29:30,102 --> 00:29:32,770
just to be able to get together
is worth it,
659
00:29:32,771 --> 00:29:34,855
even if we don't find
the treasure.
660
00:29:34,856 --> 00:29:37,817
‐ All right, I can live with that.
‐That's a good one.
661
00:29:37,818 --> 00:29:39,485
Yeah.
662
00:29:39,486 --> 00:29:40,820
So...
663
00:29:40,821 --> 00:29:42,863
is there a great treasure here?
664
00:29:42,864 --> 00:29:46,575
Uh, I think there's
a good chance there was.
665
00:29:46,576 --> 00:29:49,161
Because...
because there's a lot of stuff.
666
00:29:49,162 --> 00:29:50,871
You know, I can't help it
I'm a numbers guy.
667
00:29:50,872 --> 00:29:53,666
Maybe, like, 40%
that there was something here,
668
00:29:53,667 --> 00:29:56,627
and maybe half that
that it's still here.
669
00:29:56,628 --> 00:29:59,171
But that's way farther
than I ever was before.
670
00:29:59,172 --> 00:30:02,299
My leading theory when I first
came on this island is that
671
00:30:02,300 --> 00:30:04,260
it was just collective madness.
672
00:30:04,261 --> 00:30:06,303
So there
that's where I'm at.
673
00:30:06,304 --> 00:30:08,097
‐It's still...
‐ Well, you can't disagree
674
00:30:08,098 --> 00:30:10,307
‐with what's in front of you, Marty.
‐Yeah, but I don't see treasure
675
00:30:10,308 --> 00:30:13,310
‐in front of me, Dave.
‐No, I agree with you 100% on that I don't, either.
676
00:30:13,311 --> 00:30:14,896
Right. Exactly.
677
00:30:17,357 --> 00:30:21,402
To me, it says a huge amount
of work was done on the island.
678
00:30:21,403 --> 00:30:24,321
And then you take this
little block from 11 to 1400.
679
00:30:24,322 --> 00:30:26,323
You want a "aha moment"?
680
00:30:26,324 --> 00:30:27,825
Well, there's your "aha moment."
681
00:30:27,826 --> 00:30:29,160
It doesn't speak to treasure.
682
00:30:29,161 --> 00:30:33,039
These, in their totality,
to me, speak to treasure
683
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,332
or some activity,
which was conducted
684
00:30:35,333 --> 00:30:37,626
to hide some sort of secret.
685
00:30:37,627 --> 00:30:42,298
But this, this is your
"stand up and take notice."
686
00:30:42,299 --> 00:30:44,216
This is amazing.
687
00:30:44,217 --> 00:30:46,927
‐Yes.
‐That's where I'm at.
688
00:30:46,928 --> 00:30:50,181
It's one thing to look
at the dates by century
689
00:30:50,182 --> 00:30:52,516
1100, 1200, 1300, 1400.
690
00:30:52,517 --> 00:30:55,686
But think about what happened
during those centuries.
691
00:30:55,687 --> 00:30:58,981
Context it with all the things
that have gone on in the world.
692
00:30:58,982 --> 00:31:02,777
It's quite amazing to think
that some of these activities
693
00:31:02,778 --> 00:31:06,614
that we believe have happened
here on the island
694
00:31:06,615 --> 00:31:09,450
were during the Crusades
to the time of Charlemagne.
695
00:31:09,451 --> 00:31:13,746
From Templars to
world‐shattering events
696
00:31:13,747 --> 00:31:14,872
across the globe.
697
00:31:14,873 --> 00:31:17,583
Certainly, on the continent.
698
00:31:17,584 --> 00:31:20,211
On this tiny little island,
long ago,
699
00:31:20,212 --> 00:31:24,256
during the time of wonderment,
in terms of history.
700
00:31:24,257 --> 00:31:27,551
Something happened here
on this tiny little place.
701
00:31:27,552 --> 00:31:30,888
So, having said all that,
702
00:31:30,889 --> 00:31:33,099
are there opportunities
to advance the search
703
00:31:33,100 --> 00:31:34,558
and/or move the dial,
704
00:31:34,559 --> 00:31:37,895
because I've always said
that the story here
705
00:31:37,896 --> 00:31:40,731
is remarkable and,
and it deserves an ending.
706
00:31:40,732 --> 00:31:43,734
Well, this is gonna
shock you, but...
707
00:31:43,735 --> 00:31:46,862
‐Great. Super.
708
00:31:46,863 --> 00:31:49,573
I think, like Laird said,
709
00:31:49,574 --> 00:31:52,785
the potential for the paved area
to be man‐made
710
00:31:52,786 --> 00:31:55,830
in the swamp and date back
to the 12 to 1400s...
711
00:31:55,831 --> 00:31:58,082
if we're going to do something
in the swamp,
712
00:31:58,083 --> 00:31:59,416
that's a no‐brainer.
713
00:31:59,417 --> 00:32:00,918
Looking for a smoking gun,
714
00:32:00,919 --> 00:32:03,921
actually confirming that that is
what we think it might be,
715
00:32:03,922 --> 00:32:07,508
‐is potentially a big discovery.
‐Yeah.
716
00:32:07,509 --> 00:32:08,926
Because if you're gonna
find something,
717
00:32:08,927 --> 00:32:13,597
it's gonna be from
a paved area towards the ocean
718
00:32:13,598 --> 00:32:15,432
along the side of the island,
719
00:32:15,433 --> 00:32:17,560
'cause that's where you would
have had to load
720
00:32:17,561 --> 00:32:19,145
or unload things.
721
00:32:19,146 --> 00:32:21,522
And that's gonna be the hardest
part of the swamp to get into.
722
00:32:21,523 --> 00:32:23,357
Because it is deep there.
723
00:32:23,358 --> 00:32:25,901
So, if there's something there,
maybe that's why it's there.
724
00:32:25,902 --> 00:32:27,987
‐Yes. ‐Yeah.
‐Yeah.
725
00:32:27,988 --> 00:32:29,989
But this whole thing
started with the Money Pit.
726
00:32:29,990 --> 00:32:31,615
Without the Money Pit,
727
00:32:31,616 --> 00:32:34,160
all of this doesn't say
there's treasure here.
728
00:32:34,161 --> 00:32:36,287
‐Yes.
Right. To me,
729
00:32:36,288 --> 00:32:37,454
if you don't do it,
I'm coming down
730
00:32:37,455 --> 00:32:39,415
‐on the weekends to...
731
00:32:39,416 --> 00:32:41,208
...to finish.
732
00:32:41,209 --> 00:32:43,294
And it's only this year
that I've realized, you know,
733
00:32:43,295 --> 00:32:46,630
seeing that toonie,
we're chasing it.
734
00:32:46,631 --> 00:32:48,257
The treasure in the Money Pit,
735
00:32:48,258 --> 00:32:52,011
we're just tantalizingly close
every time.
736
00:32:52,012 --> 00:32:54,138
Yeah, but you know what?
737
00:32:54,139 --> 00:32:56,640
I think I already know
if we proceed in the Money Pit,
738
00:32:56,641 --> 00:32:57,892
it's not gonna be cheap.
739
00:32:57,893 --> 00:32:59,144
Yeah.
740
00:33:04,316 --> 00:33:06,817
You know, the next step
in the Money Pit,
741
00:33:06,818 --> 00:33:09,361
if we are really considering
a big dig,
742
00:33:09,362 --> 00:33:12,615
is not just millions,
it's tens of millions.
743
00:33:12,616 --> 00:33:13,657
Mm‐hmm.
744
00:33:13,658 --> 00:33:18,204
So, that's a‐a very
sobering number.
745
00:33:18,205 --> 00:33:21,624
And with our new discovery
of your coin,
746
00:33:21,625 --> 00:33:23,667
‐you're kind of questioning...
‐ Mm‐hmm.
747
00:33:23,668 --> 00:33:25,127
I hate to hear myself say this.
748
00:33:25,128 --> 00:33:27,671
The coin argues a bit
towards the big dig.
749
00:33:27,672 --> 00:33:30,007
How quick can we do it?
750
00:33:30,008 --> 00:33:31,800
It could take as long
as three years.
751
00:33:33,011 --> 00:33:35,346
But that's quite a commitment.
752
00:33:35,347 --> 00:33:37,806
That's not something
you enter into halfheartedly.
753
00:33:37,807 --> 00:33:40,517
You set foot on that field,
you better bring your pads.
754
00:33:40,518 --> 00:33:41,852
And you better buckle up.
755
00:33:41,853 --> 00:33:45,356
Over the past decade,
756
00:33:45,357 --> 00:33:46,941
the Laginas and their partners
757
00:33:46,942 --> 00:33:49,151
have researched a number of
methods that would allow them
758
00:33:49,152 --> 00:33:52,321
to excavate a 100‐foot‐wide
area of the Money Pit
759
00:33:52,322 --> 00:33:56,784
down to a depth
of some 250 feet.
760
00:33:56,785 --> 00:33:59,119
One of these methods
would involve constructing
761
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,163
a massive concrete shaft
762
00:34:01,164 --> 00:34:03,165
around the entire
Money Pit area,
763
00:34:03,166 --> 00:34:05,209
so that access to the vault
764
00:34:05,210 --> 00:34:07,503
would be unhampered
by flooding.
765
00:34:07,504 --> 00:34:11,715
Another, also known
as the "freeze ring method,"
766
00:34:11,716 --> 00:34:15,219
would involve digging dozens
of 250‐foot‐deep boreholes
767
00:34:15,220 --> 00:34:18,222
in a giant
100‐foot‐wide circle.
768
00:34:18,223 --> 00:34:21,892
The holes would then be filled
with a chemical such as glycol
769
00:34:21,893 --> 00:34:23,602
that would literally
freeze the ground
770
00:34:23,603 --> 00:34:28,065
and allow for
an unfettered excavation.
771
00:34:28,066 --> 00:34:31,235
The "big dig" has been kind of
hanging out there
772
00:34:31,236 --> 00:34:33,112
for a long time.
You know,
773
00:34:33,113 --> 00:34:36,198
it's almost kind of a...
like a child's dream.
774
00:34:36,199 --> 00:34:39,785
The science
is relatively simple.
775
00:34:39,786 --> 00:34:42,246
It's just basically trying
to make a solid ring
776
00:34:42,247 --> 00:34:45,582
around the Money Pit,
and then plug the bottom of it,
777
00:34:45,583 --> 00:34:47,293
and then excavate that.
778
00:34:47,294 --> 00:34:51,380
It's enormously expensive
from a financial,
779
00:34:51,381 --> 00:34:53,465
commitment of time
and resources,
780
00:34:53,466 --> 00:34:55,676
but you know,
at the end of the day,
781
00:34:55,677 --> 00:34:57,928
if you dig an 80‐foot or
a 100‐foot‐diameter circle,
782
00:34:57,929 --> 00:35:01,390
we all believe that we know,
within that
783
00:35:01,391 --> 00:35:03,434
resides the original Money Pit.
784
00:35:03,435 --> 00:35:06,020
I think it's ultimately
the only way
785
00:35:06,021 --> 00:35:08,772
to really get to the bottom
of what happened here
786
00:35:08,773 --> 00:35:09,857
on Oak Island.
787
00:35:09,858 --> 00:35:13,319
This is no small adventure
788
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:15,946
we're on at this point,
given, given this.
789
00:35:15,947 --> 00:35:19,241
It's quite a story
laid out here before us,
790
00:35:19,242 --> 00:35:21,994
and I think I've always felt it
goes beyond treasure,
791
00:35:21,995 --> 00:35:24,455
the recovery of spendables.
792
00:35:24,456 --> 00:35:26,540
Would that be a cool thing?
Yeah. Absolutely.
793
00:35:26,541 --> 00:35:29,084
But it's beyond that now.
794
00:35:29,085 --> 00:35:32,004
To me, this is a bloody success.
This is fantastic.
795
00:35:32,005 --> 00:35:35,257
These are artifacts
going back to the Middle Ages.
796
00:35:35,258 --> 00:35:37,384
And we're talking about
Oak Island!
797
00:35:37,385 --> 00:35:40,262
‐I think Gary wants to stay.
798
00:35:40,263 --> 00:35:42,264
Yeah, I do.
I'm not leaving.
799
00:35:42,265 --> 00:35:45,142
‐ I‐I think
800
00:35:45,143 --> 00:35:47,978
I will, uh, propose
we close this meeting
801
00:35:47,979 --> 00:35:49,521
of the Fellowship of the Dig.
802
00:35:49,522 --> 00:35:52,650
And thanks to all.
Respect to all.
803
00:35:52,651 --> 00:35:54,818
It's been a good run. Let's see
what the future brings.
804
00:35:54,819 --> 00:35:56,820
Cheers to everybody.
‐ Hear, hear.
805
00:35:56,821 --> 00:35:58,822
Thank you.
‐You're very welcome.
806
00:35:58,823 --> 00:36:00,991
Following their meeting
in the war room,
807
00:36:00,992 --> 00:36:03,535
and before they depart
the island
808
00:36:03,536 --> 00:36:05,329
for the long winter...
809
00:36:05,330 --> 00:36:08,666
the Laginas and their team
have gathered
810
00:36:08,667 --> 00:36:11,794
at the 10‐X drill site
to pay tribute
811
00:36:11,795 --> 00:36:15,048
to their late friend
and partner, Dan Blankenship.
812
00:36:16,675 --> 00:36:20,969
Okay, we're all here in honor
of Dan Blankenship
813
00:36:20,970 --> 00:36:23,472
and the island, of course,
was a big part of Dan.
814
00:36:23,473 --> 00:36:25,516
Dan is a big part
of all our lives.
815
00:36:25,517 --> 00:36:28,519
Rick did this beautiful plaque,
816
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:31,398
and it's all made from,
basically, the island.
817
00:36:33,149 --> 00:36:35,859
Along with Dan's son,
Dave Blankenship,
818
00:36:35,860 --> 00:36:37,945
and daughter, Linda Flowers,
819
00:36:37,946 --> 00:36:40,364
they have placed Dan's
old drilling rig
820
00:36:40,365 --> 00:36:42,199
as a memorial to him,
821
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:44,159
at the site of
what Dan considered
822
00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:46,370
his greatest breakthrough
in the 50 years
823
00:36:46,371 --> 00:36:49,957
he tirelessly worked to solve
the Oak Island mystery:
824
00:36:49,958 --> 00:36:52,543
Borehole 10‐X.
825
00:36:52,544 --> 00:36:55,713
It's the end of the year,
and before we completely
826
00:36:55,714 --> 00:36:57,881
close things up
here on the island,
827
00:36:57,882 --> 00:37:01,552
we felt that it was appropriate
to honor Dan
828
00:37:01,553 --> 00:37:05,347
for the work that he did
on the island for 50 years.
829
00:37:05,348 --> 00:37:08,183
Dan Blankenship led the way
in a lot of ways.
830
00:37:08,184 --> 00:37:10,018
It's a measure of respect.
831
00:37:10,019 --> 00:37:12,563
It's built out of rock
from the island,
832
00:37:12,564 --> 00:37:14,773
pipe from his drill program.
833
00:37:14,774 --> 00:37:18,068
It just seemed
like appropriate
834
00:37:18,069 --> 00:37:19,903
to honor his memory in that way.
835
00:37:19,904 --> 00:37:23,073
I think it's, uh,
836
00:37:23,074 --> 00:37:25,534
borrow from Lincoln,
"altogether fitting and proper"
837
00:37:25,535 --> 00:37:27,327
that we do this little ceremony.
838
00:37:27,328 --> 00:37:30,205
And I don't think he would've
wanted a whole bunch of words
839
00:37:30,206 --> 00:37:34,251
here today, because he wasn't
that sort of guy.
840
00:37:34,252 --> 00:37:35,753
‐Uh, I think he would...
‐Few, few words.
841
00:37:35,754 --> 00:37:36,920
Few words, yeah.
842
00:37:36,921 --> 00:37:39,923
Dan was a big part
of our lives, uh, for,
843
00:37:39,924 --> 00:37:41,842
gosh, the last 15 years or so.
844
00:37:41,843 --> 00:37:43,761
I mean, the first role
he played,
845
00:37:43,762 --> 00:37:45,929
he was sort of this enigmatic,
846
00:37:45,930 --> 00:37:48,474
you know,
almost like a superhero
847
00:37:48,475 --> 00:37:52,811
to Rick and I years ago
when we'd read about things.
848
00:37:52,812 --> 00:37:56,440
We came to appreciate him
on so many levels.
849
00:37:56,441 --> 00:37:58,776
You know. A friend, a partner,
850
00:37:58,777 --> 00:38:00,903
but it was,
it was more than that.
851
00:38:00,904 --> 00:38:03,739
We call ourselves
a family here,
852
00:38:03,740 --> 00:38:06,909
because at the end of the day,
you know,
853
00:38:06,910 --> 00:38:08,952
that's what this is about.
854
00:38:08,953 --> 00:38:11,747
I would think that my father
would feel like
855
00:38:11,748 --> 00:38:13,415
we are all family.
856
00:38:13,416 --> 00:38:15,501
We're the Oak Island family
right now.
857
00:38:15,502 --> 00:38:17,169
I think he would be happy.
858
00:38:17,170 --> 00:38:19,797
It's a happy day today
to see this plaque
859
00:38:19,798 --> 00:38:22,758
and to know that
he's gonna be remembered.
860
00:38:22,759 --> 00:38:26,804
Hopefully, when people
visit the island in the future,
861
00:38:26,805 --> 00:38:28,639
they will look at that sign
862
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:31,350
and remember the man,
the individual.
863
00:38:31,351 --> 00:38:34,686
A very unique,
one‐of‐a‐kind individual
864
00:38:34,687 --> 00:38:36,522
that will leave
a lasting legacy here
865
00:38:36,523 --> 00:38:41,193
on Oak Island and‐and indeed,
in all of our lives.
866
00:38:41,194 --> 00:38:44,238
So, for that we thank him
and we thank you.
867
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:45,614
Like I always say, Rick,
there's a right way,
868
00:38:45,615 --> 00:38:47,491
the wrong way,
and there's Dad's way.
869
00:38:47,492 --> 00:38:48,700
‐There you go.
870
00:38:48,701 --> 00:38:50,285
We‐we kind of learned that.
871
00:38:50,286 --> 00:38:51,870
‐ We are treading
872
00:38:51,871 --> 00:38:54,164
in Dan's footsteps
in the sense that
873
00:38:54,165 --> 00:38:57,292
he went after
the same things we did.
874
00:38:57,293 --> 00:39:00,504
Where his footsteps
seem prudent,
875
00:39:00,505 --> 00:39:02,798
we're trying to follow
and extend them.
876
00:39:02,799 --> 00:39:05,968
It's been a great year.
Thanks for all the hard work.
877
00:39:05,969 --> 00:39:08,512
But for Dan,
I really thought this year
878
00:39:08,513 --> 00:39:10,514
we'd have Dan's breakthrough.
879
00:39:10,515 --> 00:39:13,475
Well, we didn't.
We didn't do that,
880
00:39:13,476 --> 00:39:16,270
but we, we sure have come up
with a lot of information.
881
00:39:16,271 --> 00:39:21,024
In a year that saw some
of the most amazing discoveries
882
00:39:21,025 --> 00:39:22,526
ever made...
883
00:39:22,527 --> 00:39:27,030
from medieval tools
and artifacts
884
00:39:27,031 --> 00:39:30,617
to incredible new evidence
that something of great value
885
00:39:30,618 --> 00:39:33,370
could very well lie buried
in the fabled Money Pit,
886
00:39:33,371 --> 00:39:37,207
in addition to extensive
man‐made structures
887
00:39:37,208 --> 00:39:41,336
in the swamp, dating back
as much as eight centuries...
888
00:39:41,337 --> 00:39:43,380
Billy! Come on, man.
Give me a hug.
889
00:39:43,381 --> 00:39:45,507
...Rick, Marty and Craig
890
00:39:45,508 --> 00:39:49,011
have not only validated
more than a decade of hard work
891
00:39:49,012 --> 00:39:51,221
and personal sacrifices...
892
00:39:51,222 --> 00:39:54,892
‐Oh, Henskee.
‐Oh, my God, you're too strong.
893
00:39:54,893 --> 00:39:57,227
...they have now come
closer than ever
894
00:39:57,228 --> 00:39:58,896
to revealing the truth
behind Oak Island's
895
00:39:58,897 --> 00:40:00,397
incredible mystery.
896
00:40:00,398 --> 00:40:03,233
Charles, my man.
Keep the faith.
897
00:40:03,234 --> 00:40:06,570
‐I know you will.
I never lost it. I never will.
898
00:40:06,571 --> 00:40:09,448
Theirs is a story
that will surely change history
899
00:40:09,449 --> 00:40:10,866
as we know it,
900
00:40:10,867 --> 00:40:13,785
just as it has changed
their lives,
901
00:40:13,786 --> 00:40:17,706
and the lives of everyone
around them forever.
902
00:40:17,707 --> 00:40:20,500
You know, 1200 AD?
903
00:40:20,501 --> 00:40:23,211
People working
in a swamp on Oak Island?
904
00:40:23,212 --> 00:40:24,755
It's crazy.
905
00:40:24,756 --> 00:40:27,466
There's a wonderful story
written here.
906
00:40:27,467 --> 00:40:29,259
I've always wanted
to turn the last page
907
00:40:29,260 --> 00:40:33,764
on Oak Island, and, uh,
it's certainly not there yet.
908
00:40:33,765 --> 00:40:37,559
We're but chapters in,
after all this time.
909
00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:41,272
‐We're just beginning.
‐Oh, yeah.
910
00:40:45,818 --> 00:40:49,705
