The Nazi already sent gold to South America six submarines docked in Brazil and Argentina each carrying 20 tonnes of gold . A large loot from the concentration camps totalled 104 tonnes also went missing. Towards the end of 1945 and after 600 tonnes of gold was used to prop up South American economy and in return 900 tonnes of gold returns to Germany in 1965 for the reconstruction of Germany. It's a true story.
In 2000, I found a gold wedding band buried in my backyard, I was digging up the soil to create a garden and it was down in the soil by about 14 inches. I sold it at a gold exchange store. Then in 2003, I found a soggy gross wallet, buried under old, wet rotting leaves, near my garage off our public alley. I had to let it dry for a day two, in the sun. Once it was dry I was able to peel away the layers, that were stuck together. There was no ID or credit cards,....no name on anything. Right before I was about to throw it away, I noticed a tiny, hidden flap, inside one of the sleeves were one would place a house key or a coin,....I pulled out a folded piece of paper the size of a postage stamp. There was a hand written poem on the paper, and a folded up, two dollar bill ($2.00). For the win!
I was in the military and stationed in Germany for 6 years. I had to live in the barracks and during the winter it snowed pretty regularly leaving very thick snow banks to either side of the cement courtyard in front of the main door to our building. Many, many guys would get drunk and call for cabs on that cement pad, little did they notice, they would drop change and euro bills into the snow and due to drunkenness, not notice they dropped it. It was my job once a week to salt the ice and snow to clean the walk way and cement pad, and if I was lucky enough to do so on Saturday morning, I would usually find anywhere from 30 to 50 euros buried in the snow, much like your 2 dollar bill in the leaves. I found quite a bit of cash during my time there. It's the small treasures in life!!!
@@ericthiel4053 I live in a college town, have been here for more than 30 years, I live in the area where the students rent. There is a busy street a block away lined with bars, and the kids often park on my street. They regularly drop coins and bills, as they stumble back to their cars . When times were better,. in the 1980s to the early 2000's.,...money dropped, wasn't worth looking for. So every Sunday, I'd go out, mostly looking to pick up the trash they left behind. Clean up the front of my yard, at the side walk and curb. I almost could depend on finding some paper money, and (US) quarters.
I'm guessing that the gold wedding band you discovered got in that back yard when a wife grew so angry with her husband because he said he didn't like the dinner she just cooked for him that she ripped it right off her finger and threw it from their back door right into the back yard where it landed in the grass and soon buried itself... waiting for the day you came along.
In 1992 I was in high school and my friends and I were shark fishing on West Beach. I accidentally locked my keys in the truck. This was pre cell phone so we had to walk down the beach to a store on the road to use a pay phone. On the walk down the beach we found three bales of weed of about 10 pounds each. We tossed them in the dunes and came back for them the next weekend. They were gone. Someone else found them I guess. LOL Bummer.
Yes because it’s a historical artifact from WW2. Multiple stories since 2020 have appeared on Brazilian news and Florida news and further south on other Texas cities news sites. We cut this bundle in half, it most likely weighed at a minimum of 300 pounds. It’s a crazy off find/story but in person it’s pretty fascinating.
We who hunt Galveston with metal detectors find all kinds of stuff lost by the public! Gold being very heavy most likely would not float! Happy hunting! 🌴
The rubber blocks likely came of a Japanese submarine (I believe I 52), which was sunk in the South Atlantic Ocean in late 1944, after transferring cargo onboard from Nazi Germany. One of the cargo items was bulk blocks of rubber, just like this.
Yes rubber was an extremely scarce and very vital commodity during that time. This loot which is estimated in thousands of tons was taken from Brazil during early 1944 when our military took out the German ship cutting off supplies to further Hitlers war efforts.
It’s a matter of buoyancy and density, the amount of gold that could actually be hidden in a rubber bale like that, simply isn’t enough to increase the density of the package enough that it’s buoyancy goes down causing it to sink. Think about it, the rubber already floats, and if the gold was being smuggled in rubber, the rubber would still float since it would still be more rubber than gold. I would suppose that it took until the hull of the ship rusted enough for a hole appeared large enough for the rubber bales to pop out. And it’s also possible that these weren’t even from a Nazi ship but a Japanese ship that was sunk nearby the Nazi one, which would mean no gold.
Multiple world armies needed rubber for tons of military equipment and boots and rafts and other various supplies. Japan, England, America and many others, it’s truly fascinating when you start researching the war efforts during that time period. The rubber is incredible in its current form and is extremely pliable and way more durable than todays stuff.
@@SLP-SandAngel You're right, just last week, on an antique car I own, the original tires finally dry rotted to the point of not holding air any longer..the old mechanic at the shop said "Those tires are from back when they made them out of real rubber".
I had to laugh after watching this. Treasure? Nazi gold? HA! I once worked at a Galveston warehouse in the 1970's that imported raw rubber that looked just like that bale the guy found on the beach. It was layered the exact same way and my job was to delayer it so it was easier to handle. So my guess is that the small bale he found probably fell off a ship when they were unloading the rubber bales was all. Then the currents took it to the other side of the island.
Looks more like a bail of Henry Fords rubber from his jungle rubber plantation south of our boarder. Of course there were other rubber (latex) plantations over the last couple centuries!
Because it’s historical artifact from WW2. Odd I know and understand but it’s actually to see and touch in person knowing the back story of its significance to the war efforts during 1941-1945.
During the War, rubber was one of the most rationed things, you couldn't even purchase a new set of tires, you'd get retreads put on your existing tires, when you absolutely had to. They also had Rationing Stamps for Rubber back then.
I find rubber from old tire treads laying on the road sides now and then. Never thought to gather them up and take them apart to look for hidden treasures. I suppose there could be a Nazi one or two in the bunch. Maybe I can make shoes out them. I doubt anyone's ever thought of that before . . . . .
How is this going to wash on shore after decades 3 miles down. Dude what hidden message are y’all trying to send to people because this story doesn’t make sense. How about y’all talk about all these kids being smuggled around here.
There were rumors of old stories that denoted that hitler hid gold in rubber bales that he was having transported to Argentina for himself monetarily. None of the twenty plus bales found so far between Brazilian authorities or authorities in Florida have seen any signs of anything being hidden in these bundles.
I've been looking for a hunk of stinky brown rubber my entire life...
Here I am

@@BeeFunKnee That is exactly how I pictured it happening.
I too have never found gold in trash. Slow news day.
When you adjust for inflation, that bundle is worth $2.93 now days.
bundles of rubber are not that uncommon, probably fell off a boat or barge or raft and had been drifting for months to reach Texas from South America
Great idea, make sandals that come with a terrible odor.
😂😂😂

Giving away used stinky rubbers 🤔
I had a girlfriend that made my rubber stinky😅
I took the transmission out of a Kawasaki today.
Wave a metal detector over your bail of rubber and you will find out if metal is hid inside.
More than likely an old Jetty fender. lol
Nope it’s an actual large bundle of thin rubber sheets all stacked together with another rubber wrap surrounding the interior stuff.
@@SLP-SandAngel Ah so more likely "Thai unsmoked rubber sheet bale [baht] " then.
@@SLP-SandAngel Liar... He is cutting them.
I hope he found gold and didn’t tell..

That block was found near Galveston, a long way from the South Atlantic.

He found Hitler's used rubber? 😀😆😅😂🤣
Yep and it's still got stanky nazi stinch on it
Reminds me of Joe Dirt's space rock
Some people even found bundles of Cocaine on the beach
Cutting up stinky pieces of rubber for his friends .lmao , he got to be a true friend hears your smelly rubber .lol
He needs to get ahold of Kanye West expensive pair of Naziyeezy's out of that😂😂😂
It's a Nazi rubber ducky that got lost
NIEN! NIEN! NIEN!

Da@$ .....nice catch.
Rubber was valuable during the war, maybe it's just rubber for the German war effort.

Does anyone remember that 2001 film, Joe Dirty?
Lol…
Can't wait to buy some sandals that ALREADY stink! lol
And so he cut it up and gave the smelly little bits of rubber to his friends, our question is how many friends has he got left?
cutting it into pieces and giving it to your friends 😂
wait! hold up! why would rubber float if it had gold inside?

And this makes the news. I guess all the robbers in Houston slept in last night.
Can’t find everyone 😂 you don’t know where he live
Rocking the Anarchy sun glasses, brotha
The rubber was heading back to Germany to make tires for aircraft and other war vehicles.
I wonder what that big block of rubber is used for.

It washed up here from the northeast coast of Brazil.
