One man's hunt for a 17th century sunken treasure

[@rivkahhoneysgirl5442]

They are genuine people. It is very impressive and touching to me that people with so much money have this attitude. A breath of fresh air. Normally I may be a little jealous for their prosperity, due to years of lack, but I AM happy for them.

[@rachelkristine4669]

Treasure hunting AND fishing?! Sounds like an awesome time to me! 🥰

[@n8spectacular]

Such a great " feelgood" piece. This dude is living every 10 year old boys dream!!!

[@KarenMichele-zo4vd]

I really like what they are doing! Sharing history with the Bahamas peoples through the museum, what a way to retire and fill your days with history and a treasure hunt! My birth stone is Emerald, and when I saw that emerald pendant, I just knew it was mine from a different lifetime!! Beautiful! The gold chains all superb craftsmanship! Thank-you so much for sharing! Happy hunting!

[@fleur2315]

Wow 🤩 great segment 👏🏽 and this proves when you give back you get 10 fold. Doing what you love 🌊 and helping the Bahamas🇧🇸 🙏🏽✨

[@robertflirt8396]

Good job Sir, the old adage is “it takes money to make money, but you never gave up, plus you had your goals lined up. Congratulations to you and Happy Treasure hunting!!

[@decafmocha211]

Love this story. Thank you Mr. Allen for sharing your story with us. I hope you find the treasure ! Wishing you continued success in your endeavors.

[@GizStudPrez]

Giving back, this guy gets it.

[@larrysouthern5098]

FANTASTIC!!!.. This to me is on the level of space exploration...Space may be the the Last Frontier.. But the Oceans are right here ...we haven't even scratched the surface or depths of what's down there.....fascinating.

[@VLeslieIQU]

It is nice to see someone living my dream, keep it up.❤

[@madmanmechanic8847]

I am so jealous he is living his dream it doesnt get any better than that

[@joelkoonce8559]

Wow . And He has a good Woman by his side, truly Paradise.

[@thatssomething1]

This guy really heeded that line in The Graduate - PLASTICS - cha-ching!😆..and now scouring the ocean floor for more bling, daym

[@timmyjones1921]

What a Great Guy.

[@italianlifestyle7911]

Fascinating💙

[@loadedfun4764]

My boy is right on top of it.

[@thyslop1737]

The jewelry was magnificent.

[@brucekuehn4031]

“We love doing it and we’re helping these people at the same time? Where do you sign up for that?”

[@jeanetteschock4744]

Wonderful story ❤

[@kalipress4338]

A true 'treasure' of a story!!

[@murphyr31]

Good for him and everyone else who’s involved. Happy hunting

[@hiddenfacts786]

It raises questions about the historical significance of the treasure, the challenges and risks of deep-sea exploration, and the potential financial rewards of uncovering precious artifacts.

[@bellevue260]

What an awesome way to share your fortune. Pick one thing and do it well. Think of all the jobs, small businesses supported, like provisions for the boats and the visitors to Walkers Cay, good for them, living their best life, sharing their fortune and passions.

[@Luciferisking512]

This is hilarious. Thank you for the laugh

[@petepoteet]

Well said

[@edwinmiranda8174]

Key of happiness is love what u do

[@steveanderson508]

This man is living the dream

[@everettamador9870]

Great Story Lee....Happy😊😊😊😊😊

[@j.jarvis7460]

my TED talk: this brings about a moral dilemma, finding and owning are two separate things.

[@djquinn11]

There’s a man living his best life.

[@DerikBagley-px5nm]

Been watching the show since day one I'm 55 years old Florence Oregon

[@MikeC32958]

Good form. Golly well done sir :)

[@jeffsiegwart]

Real treasure hunters. How cool is that?

[@Ellyfromhereandthere]

I like they did this, but he needs to fund some clean up of.all the plastic bags he made his fortune from.

[@saxonray4071]

Good people right there.

[@keithscott1926]

Man, that be cool to be in the Bahamas.

[@poolhall9632]

He’s basically a nice Bond villain.

[@RichardRjmccoy]

“Was successful on plastics” biggest understatement.

[@yepiratesworkshop7997]

I sure hope he finds it. Arrrr!!!

[@danielsoutdoors]

Great story, thanks for sharing. I hope to one day dive in a submarine.

[@cyankirkpatrick5194]

I'm glad that the Fisher family can't lay claim to this.

[@jimstanga6390]

Spaniards loved Emeralds. Green was the color of the Inquisition.

[@rayslife4k]

Wow just wow I wish I found gold😢

[@b.visconti1765]

What a dream life! 😂

[@JohnS-er7jh]

Too high risk now, because when treasure hunters find treasure, governments take them to court. I think one treasure hunting team found a $1 Billion in treasure, and a Court Judge ordered them to hand over the treasure to Spain. So if anyone finds any treasure (including coins on beach, etc. ) just don't go public. They should have sold it off to a private buyer overseas. Just to find this treasure the cost is astronomical, so it's not worth it if you are going to have hire an attorney to fight a country/go to court, and then get a small percentage AND also have to pay capital gains on income taxes once you get a settlement.

[@woodygordon5071]

I wonder if Mr. Allen is hiring

[@cyankirkpatrick5194]

Good luck chuck with the countries France and Spain claiming them especially in international waters.

[@randyganow7250]

Cool..... Invest where ya live!🤔😀

[@mattdaintree8149]

Where do you sign up for that ? Dream job

[@VincesArtDesigns]

He’s spending a treasure load to find a treasure load

[@VincesArtDesigns]

Now I wanna get into the garbage bag business

Paul Walker made this life seem exciting in 'Into The Blue' (and introduced me via Jessica Alba to the phrase, 'coke wh-re').

[@guicehowell543]

Too bad he couldn't have come to my town and built us a new museum building with argon gas display cases.

[@tomsimpson5317]

Wish I had the money to travel

[@tvviewer4500]

@05:26 GOOOOOD BYYYYYEEE goggles

[@geometricart7851]

This guy spends like he's got billions. 300-400 million I doubt it. A superyacht and fleet of ships, a submersible That's got to be at least 150-200 million right there.

[@deanruthlessrecords]

Ah. Rich People.

[@Mediocre_JT]

Go get those mammoth bones in Jersey or wherever it is.

[@waybackplayback1347]

Good Lord.

[@carmensantana8457]

Ife is too short enjoy your money because you can't take it with you.

[@moplum]

Dang, from trash bags

[@Michael-dy7zp]

The rich get richer 👎

[@treborretsnom6186]

Yeah, his ship collection alone is $100 million, HE IS DEFINITELY DOWNPLAYING VALUE , sound familiar??? I'm actually grossed out by the guy....THE WAY HE MADE HIS MONEY ALONE...it seems like it ought to be, very rough for him and apparently the family to pass through the eye of the needle ...

[@duckduckens4164]

Spent his whole career, and made millions, Producing the very thing that destroys oceans and all it's inhabitants.......

[@scrat8177]

Wait a minute, his wife's name is "Gigi Allen?" That's kinda funny. If you don't know - google "GG Allin". You've been warned though.

[@Mr.Monster1313]

Rich people..must be nice...lol

[@stellangios]

I hope mother nature sinks that super yacht 😂 They are absolutely horrible for the environment and completely unnecessary. You can have a fancy af boat you could spend all day on, doesn't have to be a monstrosity. Bribing your wife is no excuse tbh. And I'm glad he's keeping the treasure accessible but I wonder if the descendants of those who it was taken from by the Spanish might like some in their museums...

[@jnf1270]

rich people hunting for treasure, how fascinating 🙄

[@psychguy]

A guy that got rich off plastic bags is now throwing money away on a hobby.....Whats wrong with the pirates getting it????? This guys a crook.

[@moparfreak1969]

Just another pathetic story about the rich getting richer and the poor staying right where they're at.

[@rivkahhoneysgirl5442]

They are genuine people. It is very impressive and touching to me that people with so much money have this attitude. A breath of fresh air. Normally I may be a little jealous for their prosperity, due to years of lack, but I AM happy for them.
