Personally, I feel like someone came back and got the loot and we are left with residual residue. But still I got such a love for history I watch it every week because this has turned into an archeological dig.

[@johnwoa]

The real treasure at Oak Island, Mahone Bay and vicinity is its history!

[@allaboutlife0000]

I have a similar opinion

[@rebeccapritchard3193]

I'm so addicted to this show. It's not just about the treasure of gold or silver. The entire show is a treasure hunt of history and mystery pieces they find. I love archeological digs stories that connect back to Europe and the way North America's disvocery story is being rewritten!!! The history and constant finds is the most interesting. How many people interacted with this 1 little island or knew about its existence so many years before gps or technology is just incredible to see! I'm so glad for vudu! I was able to watch it begore history Channel joined Max! Love this show. I'm in it for the long haul for sure!

[@Inspiredamericanspersonalarmor]

Perfectly stated. I agree with you completely. Thank you for putting into words and capturing what so many of us think and feel about these people and this show. 😊😊

[@janetscarbary7073]

Amen, can you imagine what life was like for these people 700 years ago! For me it's learning how brilliant people were way before technology was ever thought about. I love this show.

[@generoberts9151]

100% agree

[@johnwoa]

@@janetscarbary7073 Agreed! Back in the 1980's my mom was visiting Naples, Italy and she was shown manhole lid covers in the streets that led to the underground sanitary sewers. She was stunned when told that the manhole lids were upwards of two thousand years old and that the ancient Romans had that technology perfected. After the fall of the Roman Empire and with the passage of time throughout the centuries, that technology and knowledge was lost only to be rediscovered over a thousand years later. It's mind-boggling!

[@kenthanna]

It's all a big grift. No history.

[@oblivian9505]

After watching thru the years, I think my favorite thing about how the show progressed is how everyone is involved as a family. In the beginning, the guys working in the background stayed in the background and the show mostly revolved around the main Cadre. Now, everybody has a part in the show. Oh, coming in 2nd has to be how excited Gary gets over something most people would have thrown away...lol

[@XxTheAwokenOnexX]

Iam so excited for season 12, and can not wait for the fellowship to return 👍

[@rustybumperclassics6342]

The real treasure is keeping the viewer watching until season 30. Hahaha.

I hear in season 20, they find another brass button!

What a great show

[@GammonMaster-PcP]

You have to give it to Marty, he is really going all this for his brother I wish I knew more about the back story between them… If nothing else, thus show is about love between two brothers 💕

[@zanettawirtz9383]

They did hav a backstory several years back, mayb try googling it, not sure how to locate that episode! They are super close!Love that!!! ☺️🙏

[@Fullyfemale]

I dont think i will ever see treasure before i die as this show drags on and on and on

[@David-zx6jm]

The only treasure that ever existed was the pile of money the history channel & advertisers paid these guys for 10 years!

The only treasure was found by the producers of this bs.

Plot 5 is >very< interesting indeed. As are the points on Nolan's cross which may prove to be rewarding in time.... What a great show. Well done ALL 🙏🏼

[@25kmgb]

Shocking - they need to continue next season. I stopped watching 2 years ago when I cut the cable and after watching this I see I haven’t missed a thing!

[@lalak5426]

Amazing how not even latest tech able to solve hundreds of years mystery which shows that people before were much smarter 🎉

[@raymondreiff8170]

Right, I'm afraid you're correct. 🇺🇸👍

[@Baerchenization]

It is not meaninful to compare talent from the past to modern day clowns. What is this show even...

[@doreybain]

I hear in season 25, they find old beer cans that may have been left by the Knights Templar.

[@karenfyhr2363]

Buy drilling all those holes, they at least know where there is no treasure . Keep drilling boys, you'll eventually find it

[@mikedenmark9626]

Dont quit guys..its there.

[@stanpikaliri1621]

Outstanding determination though.

[@AngelaHood-vg6yu]

If it would be easy the would have the treasure already, the need to keep on going !!!!!!!!!

[@KathrynRose-schultz-qs6qw]

This little girl read the same story in the readers digest! I still believe there is more to be discovered! Thank you all for the great adventure! See ya on the next video!

[@vincentc6919]

They say that someone else has to die before the money pit will give up it's treasure...and it'll probably be from old age...maybe one day I'll ask my grandkids when I"m 90 if they're still on Oak Island toiling away...wow

[@scrabbit6487]

I will end up dying of boredom before they find the treasure!

[@TikiRainbows]

I remember hearing about these treasures as a kid, I lived not far from there

[@shezg780]

Do you believe it’s there?!

[@karenwalsh1143]

I love Rick❤

[@craig4874]

Legend says one more must die before treasure will be found so until then

[@scrabbit6487]

I have some swamp land in Southern Florida. Legend states that there is buried treasure here. The swamp though, will not reveal its treasure until seven men have been eaten by Gators or Boa Constrictors and every last cat-tail has been cleared away.

[@johnwoa]

If that tract of swamp is east of Lehigh Acres, I know where it is! The Spanish treasure is still there but I wouldn't even consider trying to retrieve it. Forget the alligators and the Boa Constrictors--- I would be more afraid of the patches of quicksand and the mosquitoes......

[@kiranpaul4485]

These guys will never give up..until it's found

[@kathyschauer2114]

I can’t wait for next years programming

[@niff7124]

Been watching it since the beginning ... Its like pulling teeth watching it now. Feel like I'm giving my brain a repetitive strain injury however I've committed alot if hours to it now so I'll be there till they give up

[@angelnblue2151]

Keep up the good work,Oak island team! It’s down there! Love your show. Michigan loves you! 🙏🌎☮️♥️ 🚢 🛳️

[@Kim-iq1ge]

Good lord! This series is still going?! 11 seasons?! I l think I tapped out during season 2. I hope they’re making money off this show, otherwise ‘the money pit’ is really proving its name to be accurate.

[@michaelchase418]

They've made millions of dollars, they're business owners, own a winery, made their empire and money. Yes, the show is making them money, given them fame, given them the ability of name recognition. Name recognition, in business's of all types are literally everything. Celebrity status as well. They're coordinated and organized, even if it's support roles facilitating that coordination and organization.

[@ronyantz7349]

Bottomline you must address the flood tunnels and flooding issues !

[@johnwhite8777]

This show I not about treasure any more, It's about how long a loving brother will keep letting g his little brother , who will never admit its over and there is no treasure.

[@cp1855]

Keep your remote to fast forward while watching,half the show is about last week episode. They must have fun rehearsing their facial expressions when they are confronted with a new finding. 😳

[@wendlo1]

I am hooked..it has to be there the trouble is locating it

[@carlhokanson9160]

More like "Worthless Wood before Winter," if this episode is anything like the last 10 years.

[@jasonjordan8149]

But we found a rusty nail. Might have been from the Templar knights.

[@HolyFckUfff]

If they find who were the ones who made the wharf and the stone road they could trace back their origins and see if they have stories carved on stone, in walls or in scrolls talking about the voyages they made to the island. There has to be some kind of recollection of what happened there even if it was passed down as a secret. It would be more than weird that no one ever wrote down anything they went through in those times.

[@HolyFckUfff]

Since back then there was no tv I’m sure lots of people bored wrote down stuff like a diary talking about their day and what they’ve done or saw. If only they could find that kind of stuff maybe someone wrote what they saw one day or give us a description of how the island looked like in that time. Maybe without even knowing there’s clues that can help. Maybe a hole they saw that now is nowhere to be seen or a cave that over time got hidden by nature or even a story they have been told that no one has ever heard before etc.

[@tommymas1088]

It was Aliens and UFOS. They're going to have the other show they have about Aliens and make a mash up show because we all know Aliens deposited a cosmic treasure there. Or Bigfoot did.....lol. 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️👽🙄

This show makes me miss home! I'm from Ann Arbor but live in LA. I drove past their vineyards in the north on my way here 10 yrs ago. Michigan does get cold but it's way friendlier. People are stressed out here due to high cost of living. But alot of Michiganders live here so you find the friendly crowd eventually. Check out Chatsworth Parks South it's an amazing area for site seeing.the canyons and wild life is tops. I travel all over being a famous musician. Can't beat Traverce City...best place on earth!

[@bigbrogamer1514]

If anything was there, its already been found, holes filled and either melted down or in a private collection(s). With todays tech, it would have been located by now if anything was there. But its still entertaining watching.

[@Manco65]

Yep, long gone probably around the time of the American Revolution

[@doreybain]

I don't think so. If someone found the treasure, they wouldn't spend time covering their tracks, they would get out as fast as they could leaving a hole in the ground.

[@anonymously241]

I will miss this show 😔😭

[@dermacplays840]

Love the "they haven't found any treasure for 10 years" comments. Guess those people don't realize that people have been digging here, continuously, for over 200 years. 10 years is no time compared to 200+years.

[@user-st4gt3mp2t]

I sure hope not ! There is so much to uncover !

[@randybendt]

Thank you for your information. I know water is coming from both sides of the Island but I feel this should be blocked off first. The steel wall should have closed off one side, and they already found the intake on one side but did and said nothing about this. Like you said, it a show and primary money is coming from the production company, not the people on camera. Thanks!

[@user-ei6vt6qy4q]

Can't you take the metal sheets that you used at the Copper Dam and apply them to the shore part or on the sandy beachy area of Smiths Cove to shut off the flood tunnels?

[@albertchenette7429]

As a Canadian to me every episode is a treasure,in theory these are rewriting Canadian history in who actually discovered Canada,if the templars for instance if they were here to bury treasure than in theory they discovered Canada not Christopher Columbus

[@johnwoa]

I'm also a Canadian and Christopher Columbus didn't discover anything--- let alone North America. WHY do you think we are forced to be bilingual (i.e. French and English) in Canada??? It's because the French said that they were here first (i.e. New France). That might not be the case if it is determined that others preceded them that were from other parts of Europe or the Mediterranean Region and/or the Middle East. Even if that is proven, that might not be accepted by the Canadian government due to all the politics regarding the different peoples here and the "We were here first" claims which has a lot of validity. Regarding the French, I studied Canadian history in depth and the Quebecers (Québécois) have a point!

[@kenthanna]

North America was discovered 20,000 years ago. This show is a giant hoax.

Another oak island mystery, just about as plausible as any other.

[@Sam-lq2jh]

Their methods are very destructive and unusual. If they are genuinely looking for a "treasure vault" There are much better and cheaper ways to do so. I suspect they are just doing what's good for TV and will get them more episodes and series.

Did anyone watch the snake island series? The very last episode they found gold bars, then it's cancelled. Lost gold of ww2 they find crates in the mountain after drilling, that also gets cancelled.

[@godsgod1677]

Can't wait for the box set. Surely they couldn't keep up this level of drama throughout all 11 seasons.

[@michaeltier657]

The entrance from the garden shaft .leads to Aladdin s cave hence the water . witch might be the back door to the chapel vault . and the garden shaft is the money pit entrance.

[@SalvatoreScardino-mi6jq]

One thing for sure a massive amount of work on the island 1300 Templar were there And British 1750!

[@mikestryszak7005]

The treasure is behind the garden shaft right at the top I little to the ieft

[@mikestryszak7005]

Think about it why water is coming pushing its way to the baby blob and it's sitting I bet between 60 and 90 feet above where water is coming in any person that hides something great value or not I'm sure if it needed to be retrieved there is always to get it and shut boobie trap or a valve water is coming in from somewhere and that needs to be shut off before they find it with technology back then building tunnels like that especially that deep hiding it and there was no water back then would be impossible so there has to be some where it is coming from and that's what is collapsing things and filling the voids up plus there is probably more then one treasure hidden there

[@sergefarmer4832]

Dig a hole size of 2 tanks wide and long go down and check it out! Last push! Pump the water out! Let's go guys.

[@johnwoa]

It'll never happen. This show is not about getting answers or solving the Oak Island mystery.

[@Bucksbeaters902]

Dan Blankenship didn’t think 1000s of holes would be dug on his land. He wanted to share his story. This went from a superior les stroud survivorman knowledgeable show to a bear grylls what not to do show in the last 7 years.

i have been watching since season one and have always wondered what the dollar amount is that they have spent so far.

[@johnruge1218]

To Dave Blankenship... I almost joined your band once in the mid 60s, are you still pickin'? I get inspired to write songs sometimes, if I come up with one that is worthy, maybe you and the Bruds can use it as a jingle for your show (et al). Quite an effort, my uncle Freddy won a treasure map of the island back in the thirties in a sailor poker game on long Island,, and took my cousins there about when you started the dig, so I am a big fan!

[@GKL1954]

Maybe Geraldo can help them find the treasure.

[@spiraling69]

The show is the treasure. I'm sure all parties are doing quite well. With that said, Id strip mine the entire island down to bedrock.

[@jukeboxzero1]

Seems like the only way they'll find the treasure (if there is any)!!

[@doreybain]

I hear in season 27, they discover the wood beams they've been pulling up all these years may be pieces of the true cross.

[@johnwoa]

That might not be so far-fetched! There are those who believe that Oak Island contains an "ancient" ossuary containing the human remains of Jesus of Nazareth sealed within the alleged Chappell Vault and brought here from across the Atlantic Ocean to conceal it from known Christendom at the time in an elaborate scheme to overthrow the ancient Roman Empire. Wouldn't that turn Christianity on its heels!

[@kdkitchen3175]

Why don't they just plant some treasure and act surprised when they find it😂😂😂

[@Mindswamp]

Might as well. Most of the so called relics and Roman Coins were planted,

[@zalin2000]

If they do find treasure, it's not going to cover the costs of the search at this point.

[@randybendt]

Why isn't closing off the water intake from the ocean #1 priority? This would solve the main problem of flooding, making the dig to the bottom much easier.

[@johnwoa]

They have been trying unsuccessfully to block the flood tunnels for two hundred years and it is more complicated than it appears. There is also a flood tunnel that leads to the original Money Pit from the opposite direction from Smith's Cove, probably originating from the shallow waters to the west of Oak Island to the mainland. With the gradually-rising sea level over the past two millennium, that "shallow waters" was most probably dry land in the very distant past allowing for the digging/excavating of a flood tunnel leading to the original Money Pit. Hence, the sea level at Smith's Cove was much lower in the very distant past allowing for the construction of the finger-shaped box drains and the other interesting structures that were uncovered by the team found beneath the man-made (artificial) beach. The Geological Survey of Canada stated in the 1990's that the sea level surrounding Oak Island is rising at the rate of 30 centimetres (12 inches) every one hundred years. Bathymetric maps prepared confirm this fact. Again, sorry so lengthy!

[@rickzw67]

Rick sheet pile the baby blob, freeze the grading and dig the entire blob.

[@ReganHallMusic]

A platform of timbers without walls, is found at 100' deep next to the garden shaft. Isn't that how the money pit was described? Dig There!!!

[@johnwoa]

Good point!

[@MS-br8yr]

Wonder if there are any original access tunnels under Nolan's Cross. 🤔

[@kilroy294]

Just dig already

[@jennifergoldsmith2155]

Have a series with a challenge for the most successful treasure hunters in the world to come to Oak Island to solve the mystery. If they don’t find any then have multiple series where a group of amateurs try to hunt. Have new hunters for each season.

[@reid-qo2sz]

O …remember the coin … and how far it travelled….

[@Arc-popz]

Tune in next week for Ancient templar trashpile for wood and scraps of pottery! 😢😮😅

[@yeseniakrueger1863]

They should dig up all the islands up there....

[@johnwoa]

Agreed, but it is illegal (i.e. against provincial law) to search/excavate/treasure hunt on any of the adjacent islands or even the seabed of Mahone Bay. Oak Island has been "grandfathered in" because of the search activity that has been going on there for over two hundred years and treasure hunting licenses are issued to the Oak Island team by the province. The laws are very strict up there in Nova Scotia.

[@shawntaco-ve6xd]

Just think these guys be digging right now real time. Can’t wait till next season. I predict large cans installed for Oak Island.
