What Happens When You Find Buried Treasure, Stick Your Head in a Particle Accelerator & Much More

I really appreciate you taking the time to pronounce your script properly. There’s a reason people enjoy listening to your videos, and one of the reasons is the clear enunciation and rapid presentation. It’s a big deal and shows regard for your audience . Interesting and entertaining content with good presentation.

Being the nerd I am, if I found a genuine treasure that possibly had significant scientific or historical value, I’d immediately contact the proper authorities to keep the items from being destroyed or damaged by those with more selfish motives…. The amount of lost history that has been destroyed by ignorant people who just want to cash in their finds and have no concern for the value to human history or science is astounding… The library at Alexandria is a good example… though I don’t think it contained any magical or supernatural knowledge in its scrolls or manuscripts, but it surely did contain priceless written accounts of life in ancient times.

[@Acrimonious-Dragon]

What happens when you find buried treasure is you keep your mouth shut and don't let people know you found treasure.

[@BabyMakR]

Easy enough if it's gold. Just melt it down and then grind it into powder. Mix it with some gravel and dirt and sell it.

Except here in new Zealand, but in saying that. Our history is less than 1000 years. America has over 1000 years. So they're more likely to find something. England only got to new Zealand after 1800. Maori got here about the year 1200. So only 800 years ago. Not much to find.

[@x3Drake4]

You’d be stuck with it. If you try to sell it, the gov will notice sudden income and ask about it. Finding a fence for unregistered income would lead you straight to the authorities, or the real fence would at best give you scraps, at worst just rob you since you wouldn’t be able to report it anyway. Even moving it would be close to impossible, especially across the border

[@jeremyborder6794]

45:33 it’s so weird seeing a beardless Simon

[@TheWombat2012]

Here in Australia you fossick for gold, gemstones, etc, you have to go to designated fossicking areas and have a cheap permit. It’s not a big deal. However a few years ago one guy found a massive gold nugget worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, and foolishly told the local media in the area about it. Next minute the government confiscated it from him as he didn’t have a fossicking permit even though he was on a designated fossicking area. The message everyone took away? If you find a big lump of gold, STAY QUIET, go get yourself a fossicking permit, and THEN “find” the gold. 😊

As far as eye floaters: no eye doctor ever told me until I was in my 30s, but it’s important to stay hydrated because if your eyes aren’t wet enough, the proteins that are those shadowy looking floaters can harden and become permanent floaters in your eye.

Because the 2 families had the same family name higher in the family tree. They were in fact both different families that emigrated after WWI with similar names who both changed their names to the same western name to fit in and so weren't related and even from different countries in post war Europe. Apparently that Aunt was apparently not invited to the new ceremony.

You get taxed for selling 1ounce coins. Then the buyer has report to government they bought ounce off you.

This will sound bad but Arabs or Jews will buy it and will turn their cameras off. You won't get the full amount but 80percent without paperwork I say is best. We in California have a lot small regular stores that will buy gold from you. Never big box stores or pawn shops or name brand jewelry stores. Go for small mom and pops or foreign jewelers. They love it n dont care where it came from. Will be melted once in the melters desk.
