This is starting to get as bad as ancient aliens History channel. Rick and Marty look like DILL HOLES

[@lieutenantcliff]

Yeah, I would love to watch new episodes every week because I bought season 8. But you people don't upload ANY new episodes for 3 weeks now.

[@user-5ee3zk1w]

That narrator cracks me up, always questioning things in his monotone voice. " A pocket knife? How did it get there? And did someone widdle a spoon?" or did they dig the money pit with this knife?" LOL

[@aliengranpa]

The narrator annoys me. Has for years.

[@user-5ee3zk1w]

@@user-5ee3zk1w lol ok maybe not snoop. This guy would be fine if he didn't repeat everything 2 seconds after they do. If they say "it's an antique coin " 2 seconds later he goes "an antique coin?" It's like yeah dude, that's what they JUST SAID, aren't you paying attention?😂

[@alphaomega8373]

Same same?

[@johnwoa]

You're on the right track! I have believed since the late-1990's that the Oak Island "treasure" is an ancient religious tomb that was placed adjacent to the cavern(s) deep underground via one or two cave/niche entrances at the shoreline. "Whatever it is" is still there but is inaccessible due to rising sea levels over the past two millennium. Someone or somebody in ancient times went to an awful lot of trouble to conceal "something" at Oak island.

[@markeilerman505]

Honestly boys I think that Mr ball being a British soldier came across some Contraband paperwork from the Freemasons possibly our founding forefathers and found the map to the actual treasure and cleaned it out and spent it through his life on land and nice niceties if there's any treasure left it's probably under his foundation

I’m always praying you will find that gold and I’m always looking for some high ground maybe the treasure is on a different island that has high hills high ground to dig deep into

[@evocati6523]

You can't possibly be dumb enough to think they found this immediately. Have you not heard of editing? They record for hours and only pick out the best parts. Why would they waste time showing you all the time they DIDN'T find anything?? Use your brain for one second

The important discovery haha. Not valuable now. Now if you find some really early beer cans, that might fetch you a dollar or two. Patent was a manufacturer mark of something that was plated.

[@stevenkennett8694]

prediction...next season...they find bits of wood before they abandon the dig site for a new wood producing hole. I only time in for the final episode of each season to see how they wasted an entire year and all those investor dollars.

What's this doing here. What was it used for. It looks like it's a very expensive pocket. It must have belonged to Samuel Ball. He became quite wealthy while living here. We got to get that tested.

It's a Swiss army knife. How did that get here? Were the Swiss here at one time in the past? If so why and is this related to the money pit?

It must have been quite expensive so it had to belong to Samuel Ball. Oh Rick! Look how old these rusty chains look. There made of heavy hand forged metal and must of cost a bundle of money to have them custom made. Samuel Ball must have used this chain to anchor his merchant ship to that eye bolt! Oh Rick!
