the "new" evidence was a roman sword that was supposedly found out in the water around the island that ended up being a reproduction.

The whole reason they focus on 10X is they believe its a back door to get into the money pit and they think they can get in without the booby traps. This diver did a great job, got past a drill bar in the 27" walked around, kicked up debris, never once walked into a wooden post ended up going in what they thought was a tunnel. I am pretty sure its what most natural wells look like, a tunnel going into a pool where most people just put a pump to get drinking water. What the diver needed to do was lose his air, use that small tank he had on and swim up that tunnel farther.

Simple questions, is that fresh or salt water? If he felt a current in there, which way, how will they pump it out. How will they get down there when they pump it out, another ladder? If its feasible to pump it out, why not just pump it out so clear water gets in there so they can see when they send a diver?

I get the freeze the ground and dig operation, but I do not think they are 100% convinced they know exactly where the money pit is. This last episode with the gold looking object and 20 feet of clearance might verify where this multi million dollar operation would happen. I just think they would be money ahead building a structure and doing this in the winter.

Somebody strung up a pig from a tree over a fire pit they dug there 300 years ago. Mystery solved.

Pretty much. I'm like 98% sure everything they've found is from previous digs too. Every episode its "omg, we found wood! How'd that get there?" Oh I dunno. Maybe from the other 50 digs that happened before and we're filled back in after they found nothing as well?

For some reason I keep watching this show. Every season it’s the same shit. They drag ass all season long and at the end they haven’t found anything significant. Last nights new episode was no different. They sent a camera down one of the test holes and saw “man made objects” but when they sent a diver down and he came up with a bag full of mud there wasn’t one object in the bag. This show is like a car accident, you just can’t look away......

forget the treasure.....someone must die!! its the only way to end it.

Problem is that two people who have actually looked for the treasure have died. I thought for sure Nolan would count as one, but apparently there is fine print to the legend and past it if they find that skeleton of the slave left in the hole.

I flip to it occasionally and it seems tiresome. Get in the war room. Discuss the new find. Look deeper into it and can't find it or they were wrong.

Sad about that kid that died though. 16. Too young.

I hope something significant is found or all the episodes I watched was a waste of time.
Patience good sir.


They're almost there.


(Marty and Craig are worth a lot more than I thought. Dropping millions on this thing now. Assuming Rick is worth normal people money.)

I’m sure the show has helped tremendously with the financing of this endeavor. I will admit, all the story lines are interesting, knights templar, pirates, the Spanish, the English, treasure, holy items etc etc. I like that history shit.

You'd hear about something significant on the news first. The show is taped over the Spring/Summer. There's no way they could keep anything big under wraps for that long
