Aren't we lucky to be seeing the map he guarded so much
Now we’re all cursed

He found those spider stones all over the place with little effort. I should ask old backhoe operators how many they've dug up.
You wouldn't believe the sheer number of pottery shards, and arrowheads, and bullets from the civil war and older, are found just lying around, or under mere inches of soil, ALL OVER the south and the west of the USA.

Indeed ! Pepperoni and sausage pizza map. Fruitless, mediocre, treasure hunt ! 🙄
There are more spider maps than those reported in this story. Most are believed to be associated with the KGC.
Its kinda funny how the person that re uploaded this doc probably made more money than buddy that tred to find the treasure. Bhhaha
Ugh why does the gold always have to be cursed? Can’t we find good clean gold?
Cause the Greed of money or Gold is deep.

The fiat dollar is fiat or paper or digital and causes way way more greed then gold. The devil doesn’t need gold money when a private federal reserve can print indefinitely and then pays a 6%dividend to Wall Street and a 90% franchise tax back to the treasury.
I’ve seen many people say gold isn’t needed or bad. But sound money prevents endless war and helps hold corrupt banks and governments more accountable when gold or silver is actually money that workers are paid in.
😂
Root of all
When I realized he’s wearing grey jogging pants with safety pins holding his suspenders on 😂
Those pieces of objects found with the so called map were placed on the map could be a good clue
My dad used to rock hound when I was a kid. My grandpa did to, with his brother apparently. I still have a little ball of silver head together with mercury that they panned a long time ago. Don’t think I’ve ever met an old miner that didn’t have a secret treasure story to tell. Thanks
this one was so good, really enjoyed the story
the part when he fell down and broke his legs!!!! wow thankful he survived.
Yo. No spoiler alert? 😂
Possibly a single stone at one point broken into many and scattered purposely?
Like the Peralta Stone maps found in the Superstition Mountains, Arizona. Another "Treasure Hunt" that leads nowhere.
Love how someone stubs their toe then the gold is cursed.
Another wild goose chase treasure hunt!
Great as always.
Great story and production thanks
This story starts out like that song "I've got a brand new pair of roller skates, you've got a brand new key* 😂😂😂
Oh my god! Yes it does 😂😂😂
Yea I almost gave up on finding the fountain of youth. But then there it was. Also in my collection, Santa's hat, the holy grail, strange pair of ruby slippers and col. Sanders secret recipe.
😂
The fountain of youth is , eating right, exercise and weights , and H.G.H. look at Sly Stallone. HGH has no negative side effects
@1cugine359 Sly looks like he has more plastic and silicone in him than a barbie doll 😀
Joe Biden knows the Easter Bunny!
@@baneverything5580don’t forget the tooth fairy lol
Not convinced that's a map and any link to lost gold is flimsy at best but I do enjoy a treasure tale
The whole story sounds fishy as.
Can you PLEASE LOWER THE MUSIC in your documentaries for the folks who listen while they drift off to sleep. These videos are amazing but the music is nearly level with the narration
I’ve read this book! It’s an incredible story!
I remember reading a long time ago about a tunnel into a mountain discovered by some liners that led to a room filled with gold bars. Soon after the US Army game with trucks and cleared out all of the gold. Nothing but heard about the gold ever since
I think I saw that to , was it next to an army base ?
Victorio Peak in Hembrillo Basin in the San Andres Mountains in New Mexico on what was not but now is White Sands Missile Range. Story of Doc Noss. And others.
Yes victorious peak
Victorio peak treasure on white sands missile range.
Auto correct is a pain in the neck. Yes Victorio peak , I think the documentary is called "Gold ,Lies , and Videotape". Very good documentary and I have no doubt that someone got away with a s%!# ton of treasures/ gold .
Has anyone tried to date the carvings? For some reason the common denominator is Dave Arnold.
for stone, all you can do is date the things in the ground around it, which of course we can't do now.
i'm skeptical, but why would a portly old man fake the maps to just dig in the desert all the time? fake a map to show the zimbrinksis or whatever the name of the family with the ranch was here, to get to something you actually know is there. fake a map to convince someone else that it's real, not yourself. this could all be a farce but that would be a very strange way for it to be so
@@herzogsbuick People do all sorts of stupid things if there is some way to get even a little bit of cash out of it.
The stones are a complete BS imo. Arnold made those in a way to convince others to look for the gold with him, a way of getting manpower to dig for you, a way to get permission on on someone's land etc all planted
They could just be be boundary marks too
@@herzogsbuickI'm with you on this one, he wasn't exactly enjoying a beneficial con... as the other said, he was doing stupid things, but only because of his greed. We waste so much time on greed.
I always get the feeling these old "Treasure maps" are just old cons. They never seem to lead to the treasure, they just lead to another item that is cryptic and the con artist claims it will be the one to lead to the treasure.
Exactly. Just like the Beal papers. Con artists have always been around.
Treasure maps are the equivalent of those folded bills you find on the ground that turn out to be an ad for a local business and not real money at all. Probably some teenage incas got bored and said, "Lets make a cryptic map that will waste people's time"

How do you do that?

The spider circles Look like pictures of a compass
Like coordinates. As if the dots were maybe indicating integers
Time
So similar to the story of Lasseters reef
I think Lasseter's reef could be real though. There is a lot of exposed quartz on the surface of the ground in that part of Australia with gold in it. It's what every prospector dreams about.
Cool story
i have seen some of those simples and i know what they mean ,.. thank you for making the video ..
BRILLIANT ❤
You know that mexican planted all that stuff. Only one who made money was Juan. Juan who played Mr. Arnold. LMAO
🤪
I'd wonder why Arnold didn't go to Mexico, if other Mexican Priests etc knew about the maps and all that? That seemed like a logical next step to me.
Yes, and the Mexican possibly had murdered someone recently too, if the bodies still smelt bad. A boby's gonna decompose pretty quickly in Texas heat. It's at the point that I'm gonna tap out of this video.
"Curses are ridiculous i dont believe in those" after hiring a psychic..😂
Cursed? Well I’ll curse back at it while spending it.
Even watch the TV show westworld? Picture that map on the inside of a skull. And it asks a whole different set of questions!
You should buy the book, very interesting.
Do. Not. Seek. The Treasurrrrr
We thought you was a toad
Thk u ff
murder , fires +cursed means stay the fook away from it lol
Undoubtedly points in the sky or on the ground...check GE
Imagine some ingenious prankster/person with mental illness left all these clues for no other reason than to mess with someone. 🤣
Yeah, that was Definitely, a Map "chiseled" showing a gold treasure.😂
Michael Angelo was a chiseler 😂👍🏻
Anybody else from Texas in here?
No
@@ssherrierable 👍
I am and I’ve read the spider rock treasure book and this documentary doesn’t do it justice. It really is a fascinating story.
Same legend in Joplin Missouri
I was just shy like that, it's not that rite they were so pretty like that they tourcherd me Girl. I was talking about Jim Towne. We used to play a place called Encapteress. Crazy shit was going down they were tongue & Groovers. They blew the back window out of his Caravan...🤔
He was a Manager @ a local Casino I New, he used to own the Beer Hut. Ladies watch you're Butts. Thank God for Gorrilla Tape...
Polotics, are polotics, Yes I may live @ the Bottom but I'll float to the top someday...
It's like frying Bacon It has to be Layed in the pan Flat. In such ann Order F'n an oder...
The state of the skeleton under the flat rock would indicate nothing would be remaining that would cause a stench, I’d think. And when the body was found after the Mexican disappeared, wouldn’t they have recognized him? Intriguing video, many unanswered questions. Enjoying this channel, thanks.
I'm not John the Baptist, but you'll here me singinging on my grave. Go tell it on the mountain... 🤔
Geraldo Rivera... they never find anything if they have a map.
The rock along the Salt Fork of the Brazos is gyp rock mostly. Flaky and would be hard to carve.
Spider Rock. Spider Rock.
Does whatever a Spider Rock does
Watch out!
Here lays the Spider Rock!
Treasure was found. It was relocated to Oak Island.
Grifter...scam is a scam...scams are far from a new idea..
🐸 just ask any politician 👌🏻
Map? For me this seens a crop circle!
Yes,i thought the same.The crops are long gone but the residual radiation hasn't?!!Plan B.🤪🤫🤔🤖😉.
Where can one find copies of the maps and artifacts? and why not ask the indigenous native American tribe/s what they recall.
ACCORDING TO LEGEND, MY GREAT GRANDFATHER HAD AN OLD MAP THAT
SHOWED THE PATH TO A LARGE MOUND OF ANCIENT "DOG EXCREMENT"
I would never use those guys shoveling. Those where the smallest shovel fulls i've seen.
Any relation to Oak Island?
They tearing that place up.
Lil boys with too much money and gift to uk others outta theirs
Sounds like crackheads to me.
Why did you ask.
Again ask the natives.they killed a lot at boarding schools but some survived I'm sure.strong blood.
Something was there or still is.
My OCD for grammar wants me to mention that you've forgotten the apostrophe in, "Hunter's", in your title. Lol
you lost me with "an ancient curse"
Is it me or does Arnold looks like Andy Griffith 😂, mFer is a 19th century mattlock, 😂
Wow, he was so lucky going to all these different parts of America and Texas and unearthing these crude scratchings on stone, now if anybody out there wants to finance a treasure hunt I have a very old map drawn with a porcupine quill on a piece of yeti hide and clearly shows where treasure is buried in Wyoming and I need to buy supplies ASAP, I will forward my bank details. Sincerely L Basted.
🎉😂❤😅😊
Totally fake I think. Juan reads map and says dig here to find another map and you'll find a skeleton underneath it. So after lifting rock the stench nearly knocks them off their feet?? Therefore the body had to be only a few days old, not years old!! The picture of a skull that's got no flesh doesn't fit what was being said.
29 feet !!! you gonna dig that deep in 110 degrees snake infested middle of nowhere ! as joe would say COME ON MAN !!! lol
The spider rocks are the way mines were laid out.ref:De Re Metallica,Agricola.
Sheppard says to mexxican "you seen my sheep?" Mexican says "no but check our this treasure map I found made out of sheep skin"
I make & fake treasure maps so I can bury them in random locations...
Not much of a hobby but its better than most
Its a mystery why he left....perhaps it had something to do with them always calling him "The Mexican" -.-
Here's a thought... this is just a television show with "filler details" to close the gaps on an event that happened so long ago, that they didn't have the complete story....... the men would have called him by his name, but his name is long forgotten, so the show just said "The Mexican". Moral of the story is: Lighten up you virtue signalling twit.
What you need is a Goat. Every very important find is found because of Goats.
One of the symbols looks like an Egyptian symbol. The one that looks similar to a plane
Find a mine of many ladders.look for walls.
The sheep herder stole the treasure and was double crossed by the people he enlisted to help him.
That's what happened.
Was not an animal bone, but a bone from a giant.
Where do you find ladders???? In mines.
It's obvious where the gold is!
Maybe contacting someone who knows old Jesuit manuscript writings from that time, this could be 50:18 of some help. Spaniards always brought along their priest as they traveled and explored the America's. Many times it was the priest that were in charge of keeping journals and records of their explorations. Perhaps they were also in charge of constructing maps also, yes even of treasure.
Yep its a Load!😅
ACCORDING TO LEGEND, MY GREAT GRANDFATHER HAD AN OLD MAP THAT LED
THE WAY TO AN ANCIENT MOUND OF "DOG EXCREMENT",,,,,,,,SHOCKING ! ! !
The copper artifacts look a lot like the Michigan relics. Just saying...
Is this the San Saba treasure legend?
Man said we all know the story but I heard sheep or elsenod go get it... but let me read your maos and make you rich with no reward for myself... yeah. Ok
1.5 billion bucks in gold...
Hold on Texas here i come!
Why those spider rock maps was 3 different places if they not try to hide something??? What is odds Arnold find them all?? There must be more of those somewere...
I'm begging to discover if that one person second to the end of the video owns a tupee of a set of clippers. Bro, your hair be crazy.
Well for one where are you just going to start looking for it? I mean you know it's gotta be there somewhere soo why doesn't the state of Texas just come in and just start looking for it? I'm clueless why nobody can find it.
The real Chester Copperpot
Hmmm....it is a little suspicious that that he was lucky once, but three times? I just don't buy it.
So this guy dug up every piece needed to find the gold which was never there in those place..but it was is some secret place ..those map need to join together those are puzzle..those aren't Spanish but still Aztec gold
Some of the characters on the second stone he found look like Mayan writing!!
i believe that the treasure was found that's why the buckets were at the dead Mexican's hand where he laid, he found it, took it and was killed for it.
I think it's in Mexico!!
Study the goggle map.
A young person will find it.PERIOD.😊
Who all screen shot the map? Be honest.
I'm not going to finish this. Anyone who is dumb enough to repeat a dumb story about "spider rocks" sprayed all over 10 million miles of Texas is click-baiting. And that breathy voice of "mystery" narrator finally got to me.
What a waste of time money and energy. Mr Caleb lost his Pharmacy burned to the ground lost his fortune and lost his life as well. Mr Arnold died fruitlessly in his obsession. If you can't decipher a map after a year or two just give it up instead of die trying.
What do you mean they can’t solve the mystery of the dead body? Is it the sheep herder or not? *They know what he looks like!!*
This man either planted all this crap where he found it or someone was playing games with him
Mexican shepherds may have been murdered?
DO NOT SEEK THE TREASURE......Oh brother where art thou?
Must be UFO related..😂😂😂😂
7 years! Lol people have spent their entire lives searching for a dream!
I wager that less than 10,000 pesos was spent on narrative
What material is the rock made of? That there looks like plaster of Paris. Not a carved rock. Why would Spanish make maps in stone? They knew cartography
He was looking for victorio peak that's where all the gold was till the feds stole it
