The Fenn Treasure

[@corrinaclark2910]

The fact that all these morons were out to sue Fenn for something their relative did voluntarily is so sad. Too many money grubbers out there. I’m glad Fenn didn’t fold like a card on his stance

You know Fenn was a tarot card reader right? That's the kind of stupid fenn was. You also know he made his living off robbing grave sites too right?

[@ande100]

I don't find it sinister really. It is tragic that people took enormous risks and died. 1. Fenn wasn't young when he hid it. 2. That box must have weight a good deal and supply for the trip ie water, food etc. 3. He gave calculations of time and distance. 4. Weather. You have to keep all this in mind as a base factor BEFORE starting to even think about the rest of the clues and plan a trip to find the "chest". Obviously many didn't and we will never know how many gave up and safely went home. Sadly at least 5 paid the price. So: don't blame him. They chose to go for it.

I find the greed of the treasure seekers to be more sinister than anything that Fenn did. It gave people something to do for ten years until the treasure was found.

[@juliestrickland7754]

Why are all these people mad at him? It's not his fault that people go look for this treasure. It's dangerous terrain, but like someone else pointed out, Forrest managed to carry the chest, hike to wherever he hid it, and get back home alive. Granted, he's got experience in hiking, walking that terrain, etc.. Then he gives clues to keep people out of dangerous places. If people are that greedy and obsessed with gold amd jewels, which would be great to find, that's a character flaw and not his problem. He even told people that it wasn't in a dangerous place. So why do people keep doing stupid s##t? Maybe they think that he's lying to keep people from finding it? Conspiracy theories, folks. The more I hear, the more it sounds like sour grapes because they didn't find it. Im glad someone found it.Good Lord, what a mess this turned into because of greed and obsession.RIP to all the men who died. Congratulations to the man who found it, and as always... GREAT story!! I read about it a looong time ago and it was really cool to hear the whole story and all of the details that you're so good about researching and getting to us!

[@lunar_moth]

I understand that the grieving families were looking for someone to blame, but I don't believe any of this is Forrest's fault. A lot of the people who died chose to ignore the warnings and precautions given to them. Forrest wasn't young when he hid this treasure, and it was probably hidden somewhere that he frequented regularly. The people who chose to white water raft, hike at dangerous elevations, and stay out in the cold without proper gear are the ones who should be "blamed", not Forrest. I put blamed in quotations because it seemed like these people were doing what they loved (despite some of their poor choices), and when it comes to these types of accidents, sometimes there just isn't anyone to blame. Hearing this story, it sounds like Forrest wanted to inspire a new generation to explore and think and use their imaginations to discover new things about the world around them. He wanted to give others the same passion he had for the beauty and wonder that can be found everywhere, even our own backyards. I sympathize with those who lost their loved ones, as well as those who lost their lives. But I genuinely think Forrest did more good than harm. I'm sure he inspired many people to get out of their homes and drink in their surroundings in a new way, and that's never a bad thing,

[@AmeliasMiMi]

I truly am sorry for all that lost their lives chasing after this treasure. However, I don’t think it’s the old man’s fault. Before I embarked on searching for it, I would have considered it was stashed by an old man so it wouldn’t be somewhere too crazy. Even though it was laced with tragedy, the story itself was pretty cool. This is something people usually only wish and dream would happen in their lifetime.

[@AussieBrit]

Honestly, it's ridiculous to think that this man was blamed for "fatalities which were caused by his choices." No. The fatalities, unfortunately, occurred due to overzealous searchers blindly embarking on a quest that took them into unknown territory where they were absolutely unprepared for the terrain/conditions. Never heard so much nonsense, in my life!

[@GetCraftyLemons]

OMG, I was going to say same damn thing!! Maybe morally, he could have stopped it IF he thought he should or wanted to. But, he didn't make them go out there or go unprepared or stick a gun to their head!! These guys knew the risks, and he gave them hints not to go in dangerous places or where it would not be. Sheesh!!!

[@ecthelion222]

I agree with you but, it’s still very sad for the families… imagine your brother going out and never coming back. But no, it was certainly not Fenn’s fault. Also, I believe these ppl were well prepared. I live in Colorado. One look at the mountains and you know you have to be damn sure you know what you’re doing before going into them. They just searched in ridiculous places bc they thought an 80 yr old man was an acrobat.

[@JoshuaJordan-tu5qs]

Forrest fenn was sending people on a wild goose chase because the box was found in 2013. So he was sending people out telling them it was there when it wasn't any longer. Forrest fenn is directly responsible for all of the deaths.

[@williamelliott]

Nothing sinister in my mind. We all should take responsibility for our own actions. No one was forced to go look for treasure. Some went and looked for it mearly as an adventure but others out of greed and even dispair. But whatever the reason they went it was their own choice. Most people will always think how great a shape they might be in but in all actuality they are not. Others think that they are so smart ,and they probably are as far as book sence goes but it's a total different kind of smarts to traverse the back woods and mountains. It's each person's own responsibility to knnow their own limits and really investigate all the hazards and dangerous possibilities before stepping out on any kind of quest.

You know, I’m guessing (especially considering his age) it wasn’t as difficult to find as people thought. They also all overlooked a very important detail the fella who found it did not.

That and the fact that he was 80 at the time so why ppl thought he was doing acrobatics to hide this thing is beyond me. Those deaths are most certainly not his fault. Other people’s choices are his guilt? Bull.

[@aidenx1397]

i’m really glad to see so many comments agreeing that these deaths weren’t fenn’s fault, because honestly that consensus was reallyyyyy bothering me throughout this episode. the wilderness isn’t some easy task for just anyone to take on unprepared, and while i sympathize with the families of those that died out there, i also truly believe that their judgement has been blinded by grief (which i definitely don’t blame them for that, truly), or on the more cruel side of things (which i really hope isn’t the case), trying to take advantage of a family members death for financial gain. whatever the reason, fenn shouldn’t be blamed for other peoples choices that they made COMPLETELY on their own; they made the decision to go out, to take unnecessary risks, to leave unprepared, etc etc. fenn didn’t force anyone to go out there, not to mention he hid the treasure himself, meaning that it was safe for him-a very elderly man-to find. i feel like that right there is one of the strongest pieces of evidence that the people who unfortunately fell victim to the elements and nature were making unwise decisions in the pursuit of riches. being blinded by greed never ends well, and it’s definitely a tragedy that these five men fell victim to such an illusion. i can see that fenn’s intentions were pure and kindhearted, and he truly meant no harm, and he definitely never expected people to take deadly risks to find the treasure. i feel fenn’s only mistake was his faith in other people to be careful and wise in their decisions, and to not let the fantasy of riches obscure their judgement. i wish nothing but the best to all of the effected families, and i also hope that fenn didn’t let other people’s unnecessary and pointless need to blame someone for every tragedy effect his happiness and passion for adventure and archeology.

I’ve seen so much coverage of this over the years but didn’t know it was actually FOUND until your video! As usual, your content shed light on a long-running ‘internet sleuth’ turned real-life treasure hunting fiasco giving much needed closure… hopefully the obsessives unlike myself were already aware the ‘hunt’ was over, but I really appreciated finding out the complete end of this former mystery I’d seen so much speculative coverage on over the past decade. And good for the guy who did find it, both because medical school is bloody expensive and he can pay off the huge student loans, and finally putting to rest the accusations there never was treasure out there against Fenn and putting an end to the risks of the ‘hunt’ forever for both hunters and Fenn’s family. I honestly picked this Somewhere Sinister episode as a recap of a story I knew really well, then typical Jiles, you had to take it further than the preceding content I’d watched about the hunt and teach me something new.

I remember watching a video series on YT about people finding treasure, but I don't remember what it's called. Anyway, after watching several stories about how peoples' lives were either taken, or ruined, by finding treasure made me decide years ago that I wouldn't do it for anything. Most of the time, people just wasted their life in pursuit of it. Some people die in the process. I remember one guy who trespassed in a foreign country and was arrested and held for years in solitary confinement. Sometimes the government's takes it. Then, there are those who are just outright killed for finding it. By and large, nothing good comes of it.

Falling down a 500 ft slope is anything but a 'quick death'. It can be one of the slowest, most gruesome ways to die. Depends on the slope.

Oh wow.... I had never heard of this!!!! Extremely interesting!!! Thank you for another awesome video! #StayEpic #NeverStøp 👁️👁️ 👃 👄

Well, in the first place the old man didn’t make these people go out hunting treasure, he just gave them an opportunity to do something fun. I don’t see where he could be blamed at all for them not following directions. Congratulations to the guy that did find it. People have choices, it was THEIR choice to go hunt this treasure. I’m sorry so many lost their lives but it was not the old man’s fault. That’s the way I see it. Second, it is none of our, the public, business what he does with the money. He did not have to give these greedy people that information. JMO

My mans deadass went "You want my treasure? You can have it! I left it all in one place! Now you just have to find it!" Fuckin Gold Roger ass

This story sounds so much more interesting when you hum or play the Indiana Jones theme music during this story. 😃

Well i can not disagree with anyone's comment so I'll just ditto the comments. The only blame i can give him is that he is a fibber. But reality is we all think for ourselves. Money/gold is the root of all evil. Better to be broke alive than dead rich. Thank you Jiles ❤

Is this where geocaching started?

[@SomeBuddy777]

What about the fool's gold searchers on Oak Island? It's supposed curse has cost many their lives. People love a mystery, and when the reward is deemed worth the effort, the hunt for fool's gold is on.

Forrests box was found in 2013 so because he was telling people it hadn't been found, he is directly responsible for the deaths and injuries -regardless of stupid people.- Forrest fenn lied and because of these lies, these stupid people died. It is the direct result of Forrest fenns lies.

Honestly familiarized story that I love go ambition and sorry for the loses but they lived

[@kimberlypatton205]

All I can say is that no one held a gun to their heads…IMO you go in informed and aware.. and with all possible safety- to any endeavor. Their greed was responsible for their deaths.

People have to take personal responsibility for their own actions. If things don’t go someone’s way, they immediately start pointing the finger.

You can't be held responsible for others stupidity!!

This is wonderful 😊. Treasure hunting!!! Gotta love this guy. But if he saw himself as an Indiana Jones enthusiast, obviously tresure hunters should've taken the correct precautions. Gold diggers. Does it really come that easy in life?

[@swedishmom]

To keep findings like this is not legal here in Sweden. My hubby found an old stone ax that was broken in half. He had to call some archaeologist in our toown about the finding. But they didn't care.😂 There is so many stone axes so that was a keep.

This is literally the storyline plot from an episode of the original Magnum P.I. show starring Tom Selleck.

[@Dke244]

I can’t blame Fenn for the carelessness of others. For one thing, I would’ve had it in my mind that this treasure is not going to be in a difficult spot, because it was put there by an 80 year old man. I think it’s a little tiring, when we have to blame somebody for other peoples bad choices. Everyone’s a victim in this country.
