    There were probably things stashed away in several areas throughout the island, but after so long I think everything that can be found already has been. A few people on the island apparently suddenly became rich for mysterious reasons and left. There could still be a stash of some sort somewhere, but I personally don't think anything is left.

      I think you're right, and that over the years locals who had a lot more time to go poking around probably a good deal of the treasure, and of course weren't about to say anything. It's also quite possible the people who originally buried the treasure came back at some point, removed it not telling a soul.

    • @SuperLordHawHaw
      @SuperLordHawHaw Рік тому

      More likely it was some farmers and people who used the island as a stop off. They dug a garbage pit or midden and just tossed stuff into it. Sometimes coins went in it. No one was digging a 100+ ft deep hole with hand tools to hide anything especially since it meant they probably couldn't recover the goods themselves later.

    I have been reading various books about Oak Island since I was a kid (since about 1966). From all my readings and TV documentaries through the years I have come to the conclusion that what ever was there had been found many years ago. Originally, many years ago the island was divided up into approx.12 owned parcels of land. This was well over 100+ years ago. Possibly 200+ years ago. One of the parcels was owned by a fairly poor man. One day, out of the blue he came into a HUGE amount of money and left the island. I believe that was part (or possibly ALL) of the treasure. There was another story of boys living on the island (I assume with their parents). They found a very wide indentation in the soil. The soil was sunk down in a certain spot they accidently discovered. Well, they dug up the indented area and there was a treasure box. Not a kings ransom but a lot of old loot. I believe their family left the island as well. Conclusion: I believe there "was" treasure on Oak Island but it had been found a very long time ago.

    honestly, while i'd love to believe there is a treasure, and rick and morty are funding the digs themselves as claimed here, i HIGHLY doubt anyone who thought there was actually treasure, would be searching in the manner this show presents. they are OBVIOUSLY bouncing back and forth from one random spot to another, drilling wells and digging on a small scale, in the most expensive way possible to extend the series, so the history channel can milk it for more advertising revenue, which as the "stars" of the show, the legenas would GREATLY profit from. if they ever actually believed there was a massive treasure buried there, they would do what gold miners do to find all the gold in an area... strip mine the island down to bedrock in sections, then backfill and return the land to it's previous state afterward, which would be less expensive than drilling all those holes at over a million dollars a pop, and would eliminate any doubt as to whether or not they missed anything. Hell... contact the crews from Gold Rush Alaska, they'll tear that entire island apart and put it back together in a single season, and i guarantee they wont miss a speck of gold.

      You're right. There's probably never been buried treasure there, in its famous money pit. Some archaeologists have said that the money pit never existed, and was actually a big and deep sinkhole. They also say that it's flood tunnels, that were connected to the side of it, never existed in the past or present. There's also no evidence that the original inscribed stone, that was found ninety feet down in the money pit, ever existed either.

    I read that story in the Readers Digest in 1965 and was very interested, but never had the means to follow that dream. So dismissed as such. When I discovered that the Discovery Channel had started a series with the Lagina Brothers, I became very interested and followed every year since. I do hope they find treasure, but I hope it is not the Ark of the Covenant or The Holy Grall. I hope it is a pirates treasure lost for hundreds of years. I still think there is a ship in the swamp and over the years has come apart with the mud. I also believe Oak Island used to be two Islands and would be interest to find out what was the name of the other Island. I hope they come up with another Season, because I am very interested.

    The way everything is looking what they have found isn't a treasure island but possibly an old gold mine. They found a pine tar kiln for smelting gold down into gold bars the mine shafts were sunk to mine for the gold and of course the axe heads were to cut timber for the shafts but also the pear for the ships into the edge of the what is the swamp but also timber would also be used for housing while living on the island. Could it have been the nights templars maybe and maybe not but what is known is that according to the lead cross they were christian and that's really all that is known other than the island was a gold mine and was being mined by people who were christians.

    The first question I would ask myself is, did the original owners expecting to recover the treasure, or was it location clearly provided to anyone who could work out the clues?
    Or would a known associate find it, or pass it on until someone finds it?
    In any case, unflooding the pits would also be included in the clues. This is what I would be doing first, not digging holes that are going to flood. I don't think there is a treasure in the first place.

A huge effort, so why would they leave a pulley about a hole in the ground? They went to all that trouble just to leave a ridiculously noticeable clue at the very end when they leave? Thats just dumb. And so are the people that fell for it. I believe the treasure or whatever is there just no where close to the money pit.

    The greatest mystery of Oak Island is just how little the people that lived there dropped, or lost on the land they lived on for several centuries. Not one object of value has ever been found is another mystery for the same reason. It is well documented in public records, that people lived there, people had houses, cleared fields for garden crops, used tools and implements, yet very little has been found. Not one speck of material ever found on that island has been proven to be anything other than evidence of people living out their lives there, which is already known, down to who they were.

    I haven't watched the show but I know of the legend and the attempts to get at the possible treasure. I have to say that whether or not there's a treasure there someone a long time ago went to great lengths to set up that island and whoever set up the traps and such needed to have some knowledge of mining engineering. I recall the mines were set to flood using coconut fibers and that there were two locations on the island to set up these traps. I won't say there's a treasure there but someone set something up on that island long ago. As for the curse, I have to ask what the source of it is, curses don't just originate from anywhere.

      i know i can‘t prove it, but given how this show sources literally nothing ever, i‘m 90% certain that the showrunners made that curse up completely or at the very least wildly embellished it for dramatic effect.
      Curses, much like that treasure probably, just aren‘t real. It is sort of hilarious that the showrunners never even bothered to make up an excuse for the now technically void curse though.

      @atlas956 The idea of treasure buried on Oak Island has been around many, many years. But except for the stories told as part of the background information given on the program, you never heard of anyone finding anything. With all the various people searching for the treasure, you would think something would have been found. Many of the searches had the funds to tear the island apart in an effort to locate the treasure, but nothing. Ancestors of the original depositors don't seem to care about the treasure either? I don't know, maybe they will find something, but it's been I believe 10 seasons of looking and spending money and no treasure.

    If more than one person was involved in burying a treasure, do you really think they all just walked off (or sailed off) into the sunset, never to return to recover their treasure? Just leaving it there for someone/anyone to find? .... I will give you a few minutes to mumble to yourself and scratch your head. The island history is interesting, but I seriously doubt there is any treasure. Maybe they will continue to find little trinkets, but "the treasure" is long gone!

    They keep talking about Knights Templar in the show. So how did the Templars get coconut fiber? Also, laginas are going about digging like blind mice instead of strategically. They could dig a long trench, kinda like laying sewer pipe or gas lines. Then figure out where the "flood tunnels" are. Then get an idea of where the Money pit is, and dig a large area slowly. And reinforce the hole to prevent collapse. Go about it as if they are going to build a subway, except keep the refuse and look for treasure.

The Black farmer who got rich might have found some. Can't imagine cabbage sold for that much back then. Can you imagine how many people it would take to do all the things hinted at on the show?

His brother Rick could never admit there's nothing there because he's in way too deep believing the myth and having his brother finance it. And ALL the experts that are helping them would never tell Marty to give up because as long as the Lagina brothers continue, the experts all continue to get paid their fees and be on the show, so none of them would level with Marty, they would most likely encourage him even more. And as long as the History Channel continues to get viewers, they'll continue to support this nonsense.
