1
00:00:01,132 --> 00:00:03,250
Tonight on
The Curse of Oak Island...
2
00:00:03,375 --> 00:00:05,333
All right! Here we
go! Let's do this.
3
00:00:05,500 --> 00:00:08,000
We're going underground
in the Garden Shaft.
4
00:00:08,167 --> 00:00:10,042
What in the hell
is going on here?
5
00:00:10,208 --> 00:00:12,288
It's crazy. We're
encountering a lot of water.
6
00:00:12,417 --> 00:00:13,878
I don't like the sounds of that.
7
00:00:13,958 --> 00:00:15,250
Look at this.
8
00:00:15,417 --> 00:00:18,833
- Wow!
- It's pre-Money Pit discovery.
9
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:20,833
This could've been
used in the Money Pit.
10
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:22,417
Going in right now.
11
00:00:22,583 --> 00:00:23,962
We're gonna run
a camera in Aladdin's Cave.
12
00:00:24,042 --> 00:00:25,292
Whoa!
13
00:00:25,458 --> 00:00:26,833
My God. Look at that!
14
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:28,667
It could be man-made.
15
00:00:31,250 --> 00:00:34,333
There is an
island in the North Atlantic
16
00:00:34,500 --> 00:00:37,000
where people have been
looking for an incredible treasure
17
00:00:37,208 --> 00:00:41,042
for more than 200 years.
18
00:00:41,208 --> 00:00:44,000
So far they have
found a stone slab
19
00:00:44,208 --> 00:00:47,208
with strange
symbols carved into it,
20
00:00:47,333 --> 00:00:50,125
man-made workings that
date to medieval times,
21
00:00:50,250 --> 00:00:52,958
and a lead cross whose origin
22
00:00:53,125 --> 00:00:56,208
may be connected to
the Knights Templar.
23
00:00:56,375 --> 00:01:01,167
To date, six men have died
trying to solve the mystery.
24
00:01:01,333 --> 00:01:03,792
And, according to legend,
25
00:01:03,917 --> 00:01:07,292
one more will have to die
26
00:01:07,458 --> 00:01:10,667
before the treasure
can be found.
27
00:01:25,500 --> 00:01:27,583
- Okay. Let's go see Roger.
- Yep.
28
00:01:29,042 --> 00:01:31,042
A new day of excitement
29
00:01:31,208 --> 00:01:33,125
and anticipation for discoveries
30
00:01:33,292 --> 00:01:36,583
that could help solve a
228-year-old mystery...
31
00:01:36,792 --> 00:01:38,083
Time to look underground.
32
00:01:38,250 --> 00:01:39,875
Has begun on Oak Island.
33
00:01:40,042 --> 00:01:41,083
Let's see what we got.
34
00:01:41,250 --> 00:01:43,333
I want to see how the setup is.
35
00:01:43,542 --> 00:01:45,667
I can't wait to go
down there, honestly.
36
00:01:45,875 --> 00:01:46,962
- Roger.
- How's it going, guys?
37
00:01:47,042 --> 00:01:48,833
Today's the day.
38
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:50,420
- Today is the day.
- Thank you for taking me up on the offer.
39
00:01:50,500 --> 00:01:51,795
That's good. That's good.
Nice to see you, Rick.
40
00:01:51,875 --> 00:01:53,500
We're taking you
down on the offer.
41
00:01:53,667 --> 00:01:54,920
Taking me down on the
offer. You're right, you're right.
42
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:56,750
Let's do it, let's
do it. We're ready.
43
00:01:56,875 --> 00:01:59,000
In the Money Pit area,
44
00:01:59,208 --> 00:02:01,583
brothers Rick and Marty
Lagina are about to get
45
00:02:01,708 --> 00:02:03,667
their first opportunity
of the year
46
00:02:03,833 --> 00:02:07,167
to personally inspect
the ongoing renovations
47
00:02:07,375 --> 00:02:10,875
that are being made in a
mid-18th century structure
48
00:02:11,042 --> 00:02:13,250
known as the Garden Shaft.
49
00:02:13,375 --> 00:02:15,128
Before we get dressed,
I just want to show you
50
00:02:15,208 --> 00:02:16,628
a little something, when
you go down there, when I talk
51
00:02:16,708 --> 00:02:17,795
about something, you
guys will have a good idea.
52
00:02:17,875 --> 00:02:19,292
Okay. So...
53
00:02:19,458 --> 00:02:21,538
towards the bottom of the
shaft, this is Set 16 here.
54
00:02:21,667 --> 00:02:24,042
This is where we're seeing
that infiltration of water.
55
00:02:24,208 --> 00:02:25,917
This is the bad area
where all the water...
56
00:02:26,042 --> 00:02:27,362
You'll see when
we get down there.
57
00:02:27,458 --> 00:02:29,875
Okay. That is very puzzling.
58
00:02:30,042 --> 00:02:31,667
It is. It is.
59
00:02:31,792 --> 00:02:33,587
And it's just this area.
You'll see as you go down.
60
00:02:33,667 --> 00:02:35,787
- It's not undermining your shaft, is it, Roger?
- No.
61
00:02:35,917 --> 00:02:38,237
That's why I want to try to
stop it or at least contain it.
62
00:02:38,333 --> 00:02:40,333
Anyways, we'll get
you guys dressed.
63
00:02:40,458 --> 00:02:42,337
- You'll have a good idea...
- We have a great idea, yeah.
64
00:02:42,417 --> 00:02:44,417
- This is yours.
- This is me?
65
00:02:44,542 --> 00:02:46,003
Yeah, and this is...
Rick, this is for you.
66
00:02:46,083 --> 00:02:47,083
Okay.
67
00:02:47,167 --> 00:02:48,708
As we all know,
68
00:02:48,917 --> 00:02:50,000
200 and some years,
69
00:02:50,167 --> 00:02:51,420
water's always been the problem.
70
00:02:51,500 --> 00:02:53,583
Well, now we're
encountering it ourselves
71
00:02:53,792 --> 00:02:56,750
and we have to devise
a way to shut it down,
72
00:02:56,917 --> 00:02:59,500
or at least diminish it. The
bottom of the Garden Shaft
73
00:02:59,708 --> 00:03:02,542
could be incredibly important
to solving the mystery.
74
00:03:02,750 --> 00:03:03,958
It needs to be dealt with.
75
00:03:04,125 --> 00:03:05,833
All right.
76
00:03:05,958 --> 00:03:07,542
I feel like Ghostbusters.
77
00:03:08,750 --> 00:03:12,167
Since returning
to the island three weeks ago,
78
00:03:12,333 --> 00:03:15,167
representatives from
Dumas Contracting Limited
79
00:03:15,333 --> 00:03:18,500
have extended the
refurbished 82-foot-deep shaft
80
00:03:18,625 --> 00:03:21,833
down to 87 feet,
with the ultimate goal
81
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,750
of reaching a total
depth of nearly 100 feet.
82
00:03:25,875 --> 00:03:29,625
It is here that the Oak
Island team hopes to breach
83
00:03:29,792 --> 00:03:33,458
a mysterious seven-foot-high
tunnel that they have discovered
84
00:03:33,625 --> 00:03:36,458
during their strategic
core-drilling operation.
85
00:03:36,583 --> 00:03:38,833
A tunnel that has
been carbon-dated
86
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,583
to as early as the 17th century
87
00:03:41,792 --> 00:03:46,958
and which runs east to west
toward the so-called Baby Blob,
88
00:03:47,125 --> 00:03:51,417
where high concentrations
of gold, silver and other metals
89
00:03:51,583 --> 00:03:53,667
have been detected
in groundwater
90
00:03:53,792 --> 00:03:57,750
between depths
of 80 and 120 feet.
91
00:03:58,875 --> 00:04:01,750
- All right! Here we go!
- Let's go, guys.
92
00:04:03,583 --> 00:04:05,625
Care needs to be
taken to try to understand
93
00:04:05,750 --> 00:04:08,167
what's happening
inside of the shaft.
94
00:04:08,333 --> 00:04:09,667
In a number of ways,
95
00:04:09,833 --> 00:04:12,458
this, this water issue
has to be dealt with.
96
00:04:13,875 --> 00:04:16,583
- So, this is 60?
- Yeah.
97
00:04:16,792 --> 00:04:19,875
So, starting from this set here,
this is where our water starts.
98
00:04:20,042 --> 00:04:22,500
Right here. And then it
comes in along the side.
99
00:04:22,667 --> 00:04:26,167
So, our plan today is we're
gonna go one set above this.
100
00:04:26,250 --> 00:04:28,333
We're gonna punch
nine holes in here.
101
00:04:28,500 --> 00:04:30,500
And we're gonna get
some urethane in there.
102
00:04:30,708 --> 00:04:33,375
It should stop all this
water that we see coming in.
103
00:04:33,542 --> 00:04:35,208
What they want to do
104
00:04:35,417 --> 00:04:37,500
is use this
fast-setting urethane.
105
00:04:37,667 --> 00:04:39,627
They're gonna grout it
and try and stop the water.
106
00:04:39,750 --> 00:04:42,458
And you see those two
2x6's. See the crack?
107
00:04:42,625 --> 00:04:44,833
They use a
specialized compound...
108
00:04:45,042 --> 00:04:48,042
Expanding foam, if you
will, in layman's terms...
109
00:04:48,208 --> 00:04:50,500
Spray it under pressure,
110
00:04:50,667 --> 00:04:53,333
and as it expands,
it will seal off
111
00:04:53,500 --> 00:04:56,542
that intrusion of water,
possibly completely.
112
00:05:00,208 --> 00:05:03,000
Okay. I've landed.
113
00:05:03,208 --> 00:05:04,833
All right.
114
00:05:08,958 --> 00:05:10,500
Okay. Roger, I have
lots of questions.
115
00:05:10,708 --> 00:05:12,375
- Yeah.
- Where are we compared
116
00:05:12,583 --> 00:05:14,583
to where we were
last year at the bottom?
117
00:05:14,708 --> 00:05:16,128
- Are we below that depth?
- That's right.
118
00:05:16,208 --> 00:05:17,545
So we're about
four or five feet lower
119
00:05:17,625 --> 00:05:19,003
- in here. Yeah.
- We're well below.
120
00:05:19,083 --> 00:05:21,333
So right now we're
at 87 feet from the top.
121
00:05:21,458 --> 00:05:23,500
So we've gone down
about four feet, roughly.
122
00:05:23,708 --> 00:05:25,542
Right, but how far
is that down there?
123
00:05:25,667 --> 00:05:27,750
It's not very much further.
124
00:05:27,875 --> 00:05:29,628
I'll just open up this
up, this little hatch here,
125
00:05:29,708 --> 00:05:31,708
so it'll give us a better idea.
126
00:05:31,875 --> 00:05:33,458
Okay. So,
we're looking at dirt
127
00:05:33,625 --> 00:05:35,125
that nobody else have ever seen.
128
00:05:35,292 --> 00:05:37,333
- Ever. Right?
- That's right. Right there.
129
00:05:37,542 --> 00:05:39,500
- That's for sure.
- I'll say this, Roger.
130
00:05:39,667 --> 00:05:42,250
You're very close to
that tunnel that we hope is
131
00:05:42,417 --> 00:05:44,375
just a few feet below here.
132
00:05:44,542 --> 00:05:46,750
- Yeah. Yeah, I'd say.
- Yeah. That's pretty cool.
133
00:05:46,917 --> 00:05:49,667
It's a tunnel we didn't
know anything about.
134
00:05:49,792 --> 00:05:51,792
- It's not described in the narrative.
- Yeah.
135
00:05:51,958 --> 00:05:54,198
- We got to get down there.
- And that's what I'm hoping,
136
00:05:54,333 --> 00:05:55,833
like when we start
this probe drilling
137
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:56,875
and we start punching away.
138
00:05:57,042 --> 00:05:58,500
Yeah.
139
00:05:58,667 --> 00:06:01,667
Short of an artifact
recovery, gold, silver,
140
00:06:01,875 --> 00:06:05,083
the most important
relevance of this shaft
141
00:06:05,292 --> 00:06:06,833
is that horizontal drilling.
142
00:06:07,042 --> 00:06:08,625
Yeah.
143
00:06:08,750 --> 00:06:11,458
Depending on what the team finds
144
00:06:11,583 --> 00:06:14,458
once they reach the
believed tunnel below,
145
00:06:14,542 --> 00:06:17,792
Dumas will also be able to
use a probe-drilling device
146
00:06:17,958 --> 00:06:20,625
to search for
evidence of valuables
147
00:06:20,833 --> 00:06:23,792
up to 40 feet in
every direction.
148
00:06:23,917 --> 00:06:27,792
Should any important clues be
discovered during this process
149
00:06:27,917 --> 00:06:30,875
and the existing
tunnel is inaccessible,
150
00:06:31,042 --> 00:06:35,583
Dumas can construct a new
tunnel in order to reach them.
151
00:06:35,750 --> 00:06:38,875
If you're correct and
you can drill 40 feet
152
00:06:39,042 --> 00:06:42,750
off of that face and this
face, we'll be able to literally
153
00:06:42,875 --> 00:06:45,167
gain information from
an 80-foot cylinder.
154
00:06:45,375 --> 00:06:47,167
- Yes.
- That's pretty amazing.
155
00:06:47,375 --> 00:06:49,167
It's why we're here.
It's why you're here.
156
00:06:49,333 --> 00:06:51,000
Absolutely. Yeah.
157
00:06:51,208 --> 00:06:52,795
You know what, Rick,
I got to praise him and his guys.
158
00:06:52,875 --> 00:06:56,458
I mean, fine, I can stand
down here and chitchat,
159
00:06:56,583 --> 00:06:58,292
but this is not a
good workspace.
160
00:06:58,458 --> 00:07:00,000
No. No.
161
00:07:00,125 --> 00:07:02,128
You've got it pouring down
on top of your head all day.
162
00:07:02,208 --> 00:07:03,962
- Eventually, I'd get pretty weary. Yeah.
- Yeah. Yeah.
163
00:07:04,042 --> 00:07:06,833
We got a conduit somewhere
that we're unaware of.
164
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,292
Yes. If I get 50%
of this water stopped
165
00:07:09,458 --> 00:07:11,042
on the guys, I'll
be a happy man.
166
00:07:11,208 --> 00:07:13,667
All right. Should we get
out of here? Are we all set?
167
00:07:13,833 --> 00:07:15,628
Sounds good. And then we
can get the boys down here...
168
00:07:15,708 --> 00:07:17,333
Get the boys down
here and let's go!
169
00:07:17,500 --> 00:07:19,833
- Let's go deep.
- Absolutely.
170
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,875
While the operation
in the Garden Shaft continues
171
00:07:23,042 --> 00:07:25,208
in the Money Pit area...
172
00:07:27,208 --> 00:07:28,958
later that morning...
173
00:07:29,083 --> 00:07:31,500
Okay, gentlemen.
174
00:07:31,625 --> 00:07:33,667
Today, we have
an important thing.
175
00:07:33,792 --> 00:07:37,375
Rick, Marty and Craig
Tester have gathered members
176
00:07:37,542 --> 00:07:39,583
of the team in the
war room to receive
177
00:07:39,750 --> 00:07:43,667
an updated report on water
testing that has been conducted
178
00:07:43,833 --> 00:07:48,125
in the Money Pit area from
geoscientist Dr. Ian Spooner,
179
00:07:48,208 --> 00:07:50,458
chemist Dr. Matt Lukeman
180
00:07:50,625 --> 00:07:54,167
and hydrogeologist
Dr. Fred Michel.
181
00:07:54,333 --> 00:07:58,042
I've always said there's
nothing I like better than new data.
182
00:07:58,208 --> 00:08:01,333
So, with no further ado,
over to you, Dr. Lukeman.
183
00:08:01,542 --> 00:08:04,042
All right, so we've
done florescence testing
184
00:08:04,250 --> 00:08:06,462
on all the water samples
that we've run so far this year,
185
00:08:06,542 --> 00:08:09,333
as well as all the
ones last year.
186
00:08:09,500 --> 00:08:11,128
We use fluorescence
spectroscopy on the water
187
00:08:11,208 --> 00:08:14,667
to see evidence of other
things beyond metals,
188
00:08:14,833 --> 00:08:18,917
such as traces of wood or other
organic material in the water,
189
00:08:19,083 --> 00:08:22,125
that gives us evidence
of human activity.
190
00:08:22,292 --> 00:08:23,667
Okay.
191
00:08:23,833 --> 00:08:26,000
Fluorescence spectroscopy
192
00:08:26,208 --> 00:08:28,333
is a process that uses
193
00:08:28,500 --> 00:08:31,083
a high-powered
beam of ultraviolet light
194
00:08:31,208 --> 00:08:34,750
to excite the molecules
of elemental compounds
195
00:08:34,875 --> 00:08:37,792
in order to identify
unusual materials
196
00:08:37,958 --> 00:08:40,792
that may be contained
within a specimen...
197
00:08:40,958 --> 00:08:44,667
In this case, water samples
that have been collected
198
00:08:44,792 --> 00:08:46,625
from previously
drilled boreholes
199
00:08:46,750 --> 00:08:49,583
all across the Money Pit area.
200
00:08:49,750 --> 00:08:53,083
So, you see, all the wells are
listed along the bottom there
201
00:08:53,250 --> 00:08:55,542
and measurements of
organic matter in the water.
202
00:08:55,708 --> 00:08:58,792
So all of the wells are showing
203
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:00,833
some amount of organic matter.
204
00:09:01,042 --> 00:09:02,792
- Yeah.
- And so it's not unexpected
205
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:06,167
to see wood signals
down under there.
206
00:09:06,333 --> 00:09:10,000
In particular, we have
one very interesting result
207
00:09:10,208 --> 00:09:12,333
to present on L16 Deep,
208
00:09:12,500 --> 00:09:15,167
which is believed to open
up, at the bottom of the well,
209
00:09:15,333 --> 00:09:16,833
into a large void.
210
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:18,750
Wow.
211
00:09:18,917 --> 00:09:20,333
So just for
reference, that's into
212
00:09:20,500 --> 00:09:22,000
what Marty calls
"Aladdin's Cave."
213
00:09:22,208 --> 00:09:24,208
It's Aladdin's Cave.
214
00:09:25,250 --> 00:09:29,417
Some 60 feet
southwest of the Garden Shaft,
215
00:09:29,583 --> 00:09:31,833
Rick, Marty, Craig and the team
216
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:33,667
are currently investigating
217
00:09:33,833 --> 00:09:35,833
another feature in
the Money Pit area
218
00:09:35,958 --> 00:09:38,500
that may also
contain critical clues
219
00:09:38,667 --> 00:09:41,208
that could help solve
the Oak Island mystery:
220
00:09:41,375 --> 00:09:45,750
a large cavern located more
than 150 feet underground
221
00:09:45,917 --> 00:09:48,792
that has been dubbed
"Aladdin's Cave."
222
00:09:48,958 --> 00:09:51,333
Within this mysterious cavern,
223
00:09:51,500 --> 00:09:55,125
they have obtained not only
camera and sonar images
224
00:09:55,250 --> 00:09:58,500
suggesting that it
could be man-made
225
00:09:58,708 --> 00:10:00,750
but also, through water testing,
226
00:10:00,917 --> 00:10:03,250
high trace evidence of gold.
227
00:10:03,375 --> 00:10:05,667
It's a lot deeper
228
00:10:05,792 --> 00:10:07,958
than a lot of the other
tunnels and other workings.
229
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,667
For that particular water
sample taken from that depth,
230
00:10:11,875 --> 00:10:15,042
we find very high
organic material,
231
00:10:15,250 --> 00:10:18,917
which is indicative of
the water in that void
232
00:10:19,125 --> 00:10:21,333
having come into contact
with organic material,
233
00:10:21,458 --> 00:10:23,500
- such as wood.
- Interesting.
234
00:10:23,667 --> 00:10:25,667
Yeah, which is very surprising,
235
00:10:25,833 --> 00:10:28,625
because there's, I
believe, no known
236
00:10:28,750 --> 00:10:32,667
human workings in that
particular area at that depth.
237
00:10:32,792 --> 00:10:35,292
- Really?
- Yeah. There's no natural way wood
238
00:10:35,417 --> 00:10:37,125
would get in that environment.
239
00:10:38,208 --> 00:10:40,292
That is the oddest thing.
240
00:10:44,208 --> 00:10:46,295
There's no natural way
wood would get in that environment.
241
00:10:46,375 --> 00:10:47,667
That is the oddest thing.
242
00:10:47,875 --> 00:10:50,167
The wood is interesting.
243
00:10:51,292 --> 00:10:53,042
That means something was there.
244
00:10:53,208 --> 00:10:55,083
In the Oak Island war room...
245
00:10:55,208 --> 00:10:58,125
I think what we're seeing there
is, I'd say, anomalously high.
246
00:10:58,292 --> 00:11:00,083
Drs Matt Lukeman,
247
00:11:00,292 --> 00:11:03,708
Ian Spooner and Fred
Michel have just presented
248
00:11:03,833 --> 00:11:06,833
new scientific evidence
that the large cavern
249
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,917
more than 150 feet deep
in the Money Pit area,
250
00:11:11,083 --> 00:11:12,708
known as "Aladdin's Cave,"
251
00:11:12,917 --> 00:11:16,125
may contain man-made workings.
252
00:11:16,292 --> 00:11:21,500
If there were things introduced
into that cave by people,
253
00:11:21,667 --> 00:11:24,333
it becomes
gigantically significant,
254
00:11:24,458 --> 00:11:25,670
'cause it doesn't
make any sense.
255
00:11:25,750 --> 00:11:27,042
It's a one of.
256
00:11:27,208 --> 00:11:29,167
There's nothing else
above the bedrock.
257
00:11:29,333 --> 00:11:31,833
We put a camera
and a sonar into that.
258
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,295
The camera gave us a really
good visual and we couldn't see
259
00:11:34,375 --> 00:11:36,875
- anything but rock and water.
- Right.
260
00:11:37,042 --> 00:11:39,125
That makes the cave even
that much more important.
261
00:11:39,292 --> 00:11:40,750
- I mean...
- Way more.
262
00:11:40,917 --> 00:11:43,375
This just adds to the
mystery of that cave.
263
00:11:43,542 --> 00:11:46,250
Okay. But the other
thing is, is there a tunnel
264
00:11:46,375 --> 00:11:49,125
around that leads to that
or at least intersects it?
265
00:11:49,250 --> 00:11:51,250
It invites all
kinds of questions.
266
00:11:51,375 --> 00:11:56,000
Finding those organics
at that depth in a void.
267
00:11:56,208 --> 00:11:58,958
We now have three
different technologies
268
00:11:59,125 --> 00:12:01,625
strongly hinting
there's something there.
269
00:12:01,833 --> 00:12:03,833
It's certainly more than worthy
270
00:12:04,042 --> 00:12:06,083
of further investigative
processes.
271
00:12:06,208 --> 00:12:09,000
The take-home is we need
to keep an eye on that well.
272
00:12:09,167 --> 00:12:11,458
It's been showing
some interesting stuff,
273
00:12:11,667 --> 00:12:14,167
the precious metals, as well.
274
00:12:14,333 --> 00:12:16,253
Well, and we haven't crossed
off the option of treasure.
275
00:12:16,333 --> 00:12:18,792
If anything, this could
be a clear indication
276
00:12:18,958 --> 00:12:20,958
that it's still there and
no one ever recovered it.
277
00:12:21,042 --> 00:12:24,500
This is exciting and
super interesting.
278
00:12:24,708 --> 00:12:26,708
We need to drill another hole
279
00:12:26,875 --> 00:12:28,708
into this, so we'll
be in a different area.
280
00:12:28,875 --> 00:12:30,515
So, our new
hole that we'll put in,
281
00:12:30,625 --> 00:12:32,825
we'll move to the opposite
end of the cavity, basically,
282
00:12:32,917 --> 00:12:34,378
where we feel we
have the most height.
283
00:12:34,458 --> 00:12:36,833
Maybe we can put a
camera down in there again
284
00:12:37,042 --> 00:12:38,962
and get a better image of
the area around that hole.
285
00:12:39,042 --> 00:12:40,917
- That's great.
- And we may see wood.
286
00:12:41,042 --> 00:12:43,875
- Yep.
- I think this is exciting.
287
00:12:44,042 --> 00:12:45,583
This thing sits on the bedrock.
288
00:12:45,792 --> 00:12:47,083
It is hard to come up with
289
00:12:47,208 --> 00:12:49,000
a geological
interpretation of that cave.
290
00:12:49,167 --> 00:12:52,292
So now we see that
there are sources
291
00:12:52,417 --> 00:12:55,500
of plant material in there, and
the obvious one would be wood,
292
00:12:55,708 --> 00:12:57,833
and that makes
it not natural at all.
293
00:12:58,000 --> 00:12:59,875
The first thing we're gonna do
294
00:13:00,042 --> 00:13:02,292
is we're gonna run a camera
down into Aladdin's Cave.
295
00:13:02,458 --> 00:13:04,917
There's still something
worth pursuing here.
296
00:13:05,083 --> 00:13:07,458
This is very exciting, um,
297
00:13:07,625 --> 00:13:09,500
but the issues in front of us
298
00:13:09,583 --> 00:13:12,000
are probably more
complex than any other year.
299
00:13:12,208 --> 00:13:15,583
We need to move
forward aggressively, so
300
00:13:15,708 --> 00:13:17,667
let's do what Mom said.
301
00:13:17,875 --> 00:13:19,792
Sempre Avanti. Let's
keep moving forward.
302
00:13:21,250 --> 00:13:23,208
Can't say any more
than that. Let's go do it.
303
00:13:25,208 --> 00:13:27,083
Well done, guys.
304
00:13:28,083 --> 00:13:30,083
Later that afternoon...
305
00:13:30,250 --> 00:13:32,667
- Hey, Charles. How ya doing?
- Hey, Terry.
306
00:13:32,833 --> 00:13:37,000
So we are in K/L-14.5.
307
00:13:37,083 --> 00:13:37,958
Right.
308
00:13:38,125 --> 00:13:39,833
Geologist Terry Matheson
309
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,500
joins Oak Island historian
Charles Barkhouse
310
00:13:42,667 --> 00:13:44,167
in the Money Pit area
311
00:13:44,375 --> 00:13:49,083
to oversee the drilling
of borehole KL-14.5.
312
00:13:49,292 --> 00:13:54,792
A borehole located some ten
feet northwest of borehole L-16,
313
00:13:54,958 --> 00:13:57,125
where the team
hopes to intersect
314
00:13:57,292 --> 00:13:59,000
the center of Aladdin's Cave
315
00:13:59,167 --> 00:14:01,708
over 150 feet underground.
316
00:14:01,875 --> 00:14:03,833
Once they break
open into the cave,
317
00:14:04,042 --> 00:14:06,833
- then we're gonna put a camera down.
- Right.
318
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,208
Hopefully we can see,
you know, maybe a-a tunnel
319
00:14:09,375 --> 00:14:12,333
or some kind of entrance
or egress in, into this cave.
320
00:14:12,500 --> 00:14:15,750
Aladdin's Cave is 100% unique.
321
00:14:15,917 --> 00:14:19,083
We've found lots of voids
at depth in the bedrock.
322
00:14:19,208 --> 00:14:21,625
This one is
completely different.
323
00:14:21,792 --> 00:14:24,042
- What do you got? 83?
- 83.
324
00:14:24,208 --> 00:14:26,875
- All right, well, let's crack 'em up and see what we got.
- Okay.
325
00:14:30,375 --> 00:14:32,750
We're into some
326
00:14:32,875 --> 00:14:35,667
tightly bedded clay beds.
327
00:14:35,875 --> 00:14:38,000
Yeah, you know what?
328
00:14:38,208 --> 00:14:40,042
That would be lovely
stuff to tunnel in.
329
00:14:40,208 --> 00:14:41,750
It'd be lovely to
tunnel in because
330
00:14:41,917 --> 00:14:43,295
you wouldn't have to worry
about water, would ya?
331
00:14:43,375 --> 00:14:44,542
No.
332
00:14:44,708 --> 00:14:46,087
That would seal
itself, pretty much.
333
00:14:46,167 --> 00:14:49,208
Nothing coming in
from above or below.
334
00:14:49,375 --> 00:14:51,462
The fact that you're getting
organics of wood in there
335
00:14:51,542 --> 00:14:54,083
obviously shows
that-that human beings
336
00:14:54,208 --> 00:14:56,000
were doing something.
337
00:14:56,125 --> 00:14:57,958
So this thing is...
338
00:14:58,083 --> 00:14:59,462
is probably gonna be
a man-made structure.
339
00:14:59,542 --> 00:15:01,170
I'm looking forward
to getting down there.
340
00:15:01,250 --> 00:15:03,833
Absolutely.
We've got quite a ways to go.
341
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,000
As the
drilling operation continues
342
00:15:06,125 --> 00:15:09,250
in borehole KL-14.5...
343
00:15:11,875 --> 00:15:12,875
- Hey, Carmen.
- Hello.
344
00:15:13,042 --> 00:15:14,042
- Carmen.
- Hello, Carmen?
345
00:15:14,125 --> 00:15:15,250
How's it going today?
346
00:15:15,417 --> 00:15:16,792
Craig Tester
347
00:15:16,958 --> 00:15:18,917
and other members of the team
348
00:15:19,042 --> 00:15:21,250
are meeting with blacksmithing
expert Carmen Legge
349
00:15:21,417 --> 00:15:23,792
at the Oak Island
Interpretive Centre.
350
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:25,542
Got some items to show me?
351
00:15:25,708 --> 00:15:27,333
Yeah. We were digging around
352
00:15:27,500 --> 00:15:29,250
on Lot 5 and there was
353
00:15:29,417 --> 00:15:31,458
an area where we
found iron objects.
354
00:15:31,625 --> 00:15:33,125
Yeah.
355
00:15:33,250 --> 00:15:35,000
While recently investigating
356
00:15:35,167 --> 00:15:38,167
a mysterious circular
stone structure
357
00:15:38,375 --> 00:15:41,583
near the shore of Lot 5 on
the western side of the island,
358
00:15:41,750 --> 00:15:46,500
the team has not only obtained
sub-surface magnetometry data
359
00:15:46,667 --> 00:15:48,083
showing that there is
360
00:15:48,208 --> 00:15:50,167
a much larger feature
buried beneath it
361
00:15:50,375 --> 00:15:53,125
but have also recovered
three metal artifacts
362
00:15:53,333 --> 00:15:56,833
that may be connected to
the 17th-century politician
363
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,333
and privateer Sir
William Phips...
364
00:15:59,542 --> 00:16:04,458
A man that some believe
sailed to Oak Island in 1687
365
00:16:04,625 --> 00:16:08,625
to bury a large cache of
silver and gold in the Money Pit.
366
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,125
I'll have a look, Jack.
367
00:16:12,250 --> 00:16:15,167
After Carmen
recently gave his assessment
368
00:16:15,333 --> 00:16:18,500
that one of these artifacts
may have been used to lift
369
00:16:18,708 --> 00:16:22,542
heavy cargo, the team is hoping
he can help them determine
370
00:16:22,708 --> 00:16:25,583
what the other two objects
may have been used for
371
00:16:25,750 --> 00:16:27,542
and how they may be related
372
00:16:27,708 --> 00:16:31,333
to the 228-year-old
treasure mystery.
373
00:16:32,375 --> 00:16:36,458
Well, you can see that
this is a, a handmade spike.
374
00:16:36,583 --> 00:16:39,208
- Yeah.
- This is sort of like a brad
375
00:16:39,375 --> 00:16:41,875
or a scupper nail, it's...
376
00:16:42,083 --> 00:16:44,833
fairly big, flat,
377
00:16:45,042 --> 00:16:47,958
so this was used to hold down
378
00:16:48,125 --> 00:16:50,417
boards or decking, flush.
379
00:16:50,583 --> 00:16:52,423
So this would kind of
sunk underneath the wood.
380
00:16:52,583 --> 00:16:54,875
The wood would
be at the very top.
381
00:16:55,042 --> 00:16:57,583
- Okay.
- That way when you go along
382
00:16:57,750 --> 00:17:00,375
or you're walking onto
it, you don't hit the nail,
383
00:17:00,542 --> 00:17:02,083
the head of the nail,
384
00:17:02,250 --> 00:17:04,833
because it's under
the wood, and, so,
385
00:17:04,958 --> 00:17:06,375
this would be like,
386
00:17:06,542 --> 00:17:08,542
typical that you
would find on a ship.
387
00:17:10,208 --> 00:17:11,833
Scupper nails,
388
00:17:11,958 --> 00:17:13,667
named for their frequent use
389
00:17:13,833 --> 00:17:17,333
to secure the scuppers or
drainage holes found on ships,
390
00:17:17,542 --> 00:17:20,583
were shaped to
have broad, flat heads
391
00:17:20,750 --> 00:17:24,250
and strong, stout shanks,
giving them the durability
392
00:17:24,417 --> 00:17:27,000
to withstand multiple
uses in the repair
393
00:17:27,208 --> 00:17:29,417
and building of sailing vessels.
394
00:17:30,375 --> 00:17:33,125
A rose head or any
type of nail like that would stick out.
395
00:17:33,250 --> 00:17:36,167
This did not. It was
396
00:17:36,250 --> 00:17:39,417
- below the surface of the wood.
- Okay.
397
00:17:39,583 --> 00:17:41,083
That made it smooth.
398
00:17:41,208 --> 00:17:43,167
Time period on it?
399
00:17:43,292 --> 00:17:47,000
Early 16 to early 17 century.
400
00:17:47,167 --> 00:17:50,000
So was it a shipwreck,
401
00:17:50,167 --> 00:17:52,333
and they brought part
of the shipwreck inward
402
00:17:52,542 --> 00:17:55,417
- and the nail came with it or they...?
- Or just repurposed.
403
00:17:55,583 --> 00:17:58,000
- Yeah.
- It was a common thing to take
404
00:17:58,208 --> 00:18:00,333
shipwrecks and salvage
the wood and the metal.
405
00:18:00,500 --> 00:18:03,125
That's interesting
with the William Phips
406
00:18:03,292 --> 00:18:05,083
connection with the Concepción.
407
00:18:05,250 --> 00:18:08,333
William Phips fits
into our time period.
408
00:18:08,458 --> 00:18:10,167
And we know he had a treasure.
409
00:18:10,375 --> 00:18:13,333
And he's known to
be in Nova Scotia.
410
00:18:14,625 --> 00:18:16,333
Wow.
411
00:18:20,083 --> 00:18:21,583
The 1600s, 1700s
412
00:18:21,750 --> 00:18:23,167
fits with the Concepción.
413
00:18:23,333 --> 00:18:24,833
And we know that William Phips
414
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:27,417
- was in Nova Scotia.
- Yeah.
415
00:18:27,625 --> 00:18:29,833
In the Oak
Island Interpretive Centre,
416
00:18:29,958 --> 00:18:33,125
blacksmithing
expert Carmen Legge
417
00:18:33,292 --> 00:18:34,875
has just given his assessment
418
00:18:35,042 --> 00:18:37,042
that an iron nail,
found one week ago
419
00:18:37,208 --> 00:18:40,750
near the mysterious
circular feature on Lot 5
420
00:18:40,875 --> 00:18:42,542
and which may be connected
421
00:18:42,708 --> 00:18:46,375
to the 17th-century
privateer Sir William Phips,
422
00:18:46,542 --> 00:18:49,833
may have been repurposed
from the wreck of a ship.
423
00:18:49,958 --> 00:18:52,792
Well, I believe this
is the one, Emma,
424
00:18:52,958 --> 00:18:55,333
- that has chlorine in it. Right?
- Yeah.
425
00:18:55,500 --> 00:18:58,125
Where would the
chlorine be from?
426
00:18:58,250 --> 00:19:01,083
- Salt water.
- Yeah. It has a 0.2% throughout,
427
00:19:01,250 --> 00:19:03,167
I'd say, on average, so there,
428
00:19:03,250 --> 00:19:05,417
it has been exposed
to salt spray.
429
00:19:05,542 --> 00:19:09,167
Geez. That sounds like
it, it really is a ship nail.
430
00:19:09,375 --> 00:19:11,750
- Yeah.
- So...
431
00:19:11,917 --> 00:19:13,625
Phips seems like
a plausible person
432
00:19:13,750 --> 00:19:17,167
- to have buried treasure on Oak Island.
- Yeah.
433
00:19:18,458 --> 00:19:22,375
In the fall
of 1687, Sir William Phips,
434
00:19:22,542 --> 00:19:25,458
an English politician
and privateer,
435
00:19:25,625 --> 00:19:29,833
worked with a high-ranking
Freemason named Andrew Belcher
436
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:31,667
from Nova Scotia
437
00:19:31,875 --> 00:19:34,667
to conduct Phips's second
treasure salvaging operation
438
00:19:34,875 --> 00:19:36,708
of the Concepción,
439
00:19:36,917 --> 00:19:39,625
a famed Spanish galleon
which sank off the coast
440
00:19:39,833 --> 00:19:42,667
of the Dominican
Republic in 1641.
441
00:19:42,875 --> 00:19:47,042
Curiously, they delivered
less than two tons of valuables
442
00:19:47,208 --> 00:19:50,625
to the English
crown, despite the fact
443
00:19:50,750 --> 00:19:53,833
that more than 50 tons
of gold, silver and jewels
444
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,292
were known to
be left on the ship
445
00:19:56,500 --> 00:19:58,250
according to its manifest.
446
00:19:58,458 --> 00:20:01,250
And just two years ago,
447
00:20:01,458 --> 00:20:05,500
32-degree Freemason Scott
Clarke shared his research
448
00:20:05,667 --> 00:20:08,000
with the team, suggesting where
449
00:20:08,208 --> 00:20:10,667
the missing valuables
may have ended up.
450
00:20:10,875 --> 00:20:13,292
We know that Phips found
silver on the Concepción,
451
00:20:13,458 --> 00:20:16,333
and I believe some of the
treasure from the Concepción
452
00:20:16,458 --> 00:20:18,000
was secreted to Oak Island.
453
00:20:18,125 --> 00:20:19,792
Very interesting.
454
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:22,458
- Okay.
- All right, next one.
455
00:20:22,583 --> 00:20:24,292
- Well, thanks for that.
- Yeah.
456
00:20:27,500 --> 00:20:29,292
Jack, was this
found in the same area?
457
00:20:29,458 --> 00:20:31,167
Yeah.
458
00:20:31,250 --> 00:20:34,958
We thought it might be
some sort of, a tool?
459
00:20:36,750 --> 00:20:39,750
You can see there's a seam
running down the underside here.
460
00:20:54,750 --> 00:20:56,458
Okay.
461
00:20:56,542 --> 00:20:58,753
Do you have a scan of this?
'Cause I'd like to see whether
462
00:20:58,833 --> 00:21:00,087
- or not there's any holes in this.
- Yep.
463
00:21:00,167 --> 00:21:01,407
- The image?
- Yep.
464
00:21:04,375 --> 00:21:06,792
- Wow.
- Yeah. You really see it there.
465
00:21:06,958 --> 00:21:08,292
Yeah.
466
00:21:08,375 --> 00:21:10,000
Would this be William Phips'
467
00:21:10,167 --> 00:21:12,333
- time frame?
- Yeah. Certainly.
468
00:21:12,542 --> 00:21:16,417
The time period fits and it
could certainly be maritime.
469
00:21:17,667 --> 00:21:20,667
Is it possible
that the artifacts found
470
00:21:20,833 --> 00:21:23,500
in the mysterious
feature on Lot 5,
471
00:21:23,667 --> 00:21:26,667
which have been traced
to Sir William Phips,
472
00:21:26,750 --> 00:21:29,833
offer clues that he
and Andrew Belcher
473
00:21:30,042 --> 00:21:33,833
used Lot 5 as a
staging ground to hide
474
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:38,250
an unreported cache of
Spanish treasure on Oak Island?
475
00:21:38,417 --> 00:21:41,333
If so, could that explain
476
00:21:41,500 --> 00:21:44,875
who constructed the tunnel
beneath the Garden Shaft,
477
00:21:45,042 --> 00:21:49,000
which has been dated to
as early as the late 1600s,
478
00:21:49,125 --> 00:21:53,042
and also the high trace
evidence of gold and silver
479
00:21:53,208 --> 00:21:55,667
that has been detected
in Aladdin's Cave
480
00:21:55,875 --> 00:21:58,500
and all across the
Money Pit area?
481
00:21:58,667 --> 00:22:01,208
The Phips possible connection,
482
00:22:01,375 --> 00:22:04,833
to Oak Island is a
very plausible theory.
483
00:22:05,042 --> 00:22:08,750
We have some historical
objects that mimic
484
00:22:08,917 --> 00:22:12,042
that Phips metallurgy.
I think it goes to what
485
00:22:12,250 --> 00:22:15,500
Dr. Spooner has always said.
The larger your sample base,
486
00:22:15,667 --> 00:22:17,250
the more definitive you can be.
487
00:22:17,417 --> 00:22:20,542
Well, we do continue
to connect the dots.
488
00:22:20,708 --> 00:22:24,250
We have different data
points that are all suggesting
489
00:22:24,375 --> 00:22:27,625
mid-1600s to late 1700s
490
00:22:27,750 --> 00:22:31,167
and that all predates
the Money Pit,
491
00:22:31,292 --> 00:22:32,667
which for me is
always a big thing.
492
00:22:32,833 --> 00:22:35,667
Yes. This, this is
before the Money Pit.
493
00:22:35,833 --> 00:22:37,993
Well, thank you. We're hoping
we can get you a lot more
494
00:22:38,125 --> 00:22:40,462
- artifacts, that's for sure.
- I look forward to seeing them.
495
00:22:40,542 --> 00:22:43,542
- See ya later. Thanks, guys.
- See ya.
496
00:22:46,625 --> 00:22:48,250
The following morning...
497
00:22:48,458 --> 00:22:50,625
If you're
right there, that's good.
498
00:22:50,750 --> 00:22:52,708
- Okay.
- As Dumas continues
499
00:22:52,875 --> 00:22:54,833
their work on the
Garden Shaft...
500
00:22:56,250 --> 00:22:57,730
- Hey, Terry.
- Hi, Moya.
501
00:22:57,833 --> 00:22:59,208
- Thanks for coming out.
- Yeah.
502
00:22:59,375 --> 00:23:02,500
KL-14.5 we're down 138.
503
00:23:02,708 --> 00:23:05,083
Nearly 60 feet to the southwest
504
00:23:05,250 --> 00:23:07,500
geologist Terry Matheson
505
00:23:07,708 --> 00:23:11,708
and archaeologist Moya MacDonald
506
00:23:11,917 --> 00:23:17,500
supervise the core-drilling
operation in borehole KL-14.5.
507
00:23:17,708 --> 00:23:21,083
A borehole that is on
target to penetrate the center
508
00:23:21,208 --> 00:23:26,042
of Aladdin's Cave nearly
150 feet underground.
509
00:23:26,208 --> 00:23:28,333
I think we hit the cave!
510
00:23:28,500 --> 00:23:29,583
Let's get a measurement.
511
00:23:29,750 --> 00:23:32,250
- Aladdin's Cave.
- Yeah.
512
00:23:32,458 --> 00:23:33,670
I think it's really a
geologic enigma.
513
00:23:33,750 --> 00:23:35,667
I mean, in soft
sediments, imagine
514
00:23:35,833 --> 00:23:37,417
you've got a, a cavern opened up
515
00:23:37,583 --> 00:23:39,542
- that seems to stay open.
- Yeah.
516
00:23:39,667 --> 00:23:41,667
That speaks to me of a
structure made by people.
517
00:23:41,875 --> 00:23:43,667
Absolutely.
518
00:23:45,375 --> 00:23:46,958
- It's nine.
- 0.5?
519
00:23:47,125 --> 00:23:48,667
Yeah.
520
00:23:50,500 --> 00:23:52,458
Hey, Mike.
521
00:23:52,625 --> 00:23:55,500
Okay, so, I hit it
at about 142 and a half.
522
00:23:55,708 --> 00:23:57,208
- Okay.
- So I pushed down
523
00:23:57,375 --> 00:24:00,750
through the void to 153.
524
00:24:00,917 --> 00:24:03,333
So it's open almost ten feet.
525
00:24:03,542 --> 00:24:06,333
I think we want to just
take the casing back up,
526
00:24:06,500 --> 00:24:08,250
just above the
opening into the cavern.
527
00:24:08,458 --> 00:24:09,583
Sounds good.
528
00:24:11,583 --> 00:24:13,000
- Hi, guys.
- Hey, Charles.
529
00:24:13,208 --> 00:24:14,667
So what did I miss?
530
00:24:14,792 --> 00:24:16,625
Well, the guys
went into the cavern
531
00:24:16,750 --> 00:24:19,333
- at about 142.5.
- Right.
532
00:24:19,542 --> 00:24:22,167
It was an open space
all the way to 153.
533
00:24:22,333 --> 00:24:24,333
For right now, we're
gonna put a camera
534
00:24:24,542 --> 00:24:26,417
down this hole right
here in front of us.
535
00:24:26,542 --> 00:24:28,833
And then we'll get
a little better image
536
00:24:29,042 --> 00:24:31,292
- from Aladdin's cavern.
- Get more information.
537
00:24:31,417 --> 00:24:32,833
'Cause all data is good data.
538
00:24:33,042 --> 00:24:34,500
Yeah.
539
00:24:34,708 --> 00:24:36,170
Personally,
I think one of the things
540
00:24:36,250 --> 00:24:37,583
that's most exciting about
541
00:24:37,792 --> 00:24:39,708
this cavern or
cave, if you will,
542
00:24:39,875 --> 00:24:41,833
is finding wood in
the water. I mean,
543
00:24:41,958 --> 00:24:44,625
that doesn't just
magically appear.
544
00:24:44,750 --> 00:24:48,500
This is a very interesting
area to all of us.
545
00:24:48,667 --> 00:24:50,208
- Hey, Scott.
- Hey, guys.
546
00:24:50,375 --> 00:24:52,167
How ya doing, Marty?
547
00:24:52,375 --> 00:24:55,375
So we're gonna put
the Inuktun camera down in KL-14.5.
548
00:24:55,542 --> 00:24:58,500
I think we're all hoping
to see some evidence
549
00:24:58,625 --> 00:25:01,542
that men actually
excavated this cave.
550
00:25:01,708 --> 00:25:03,500
What did we hit here?
551
00:25:03,625 --> 00:25:04,875
Basically, we have ten feet
552
00:25:05,083 --> 00:25:07,083
of open space is what
I'm understanding.
553
00:25:07,250 --> 00:25:09,750
That's big. That's bigger
than anything we've seen.
554
00:25:09,958 --> 00:25:12,000
We have never seen
anything like this.
555
00:25:12,167 --> 00:25:15,125
Paul, let's get it in the hole
and see what we can see.
556
00:25:15,292 --> 00:25:17,458
- Okay.
- Please.
557
00:25:17,625 --> 00:25:19,667
Okay, Paul,
so line it up at the top.
558
00:25:19,875 --> 00:25:22,000
Going into the
caisson right now.
559
00:25:22,167 --> 00:25:26,667
The Inuktun
Spectrum 120 high-definition camera
560
00:25:26,875 --> 00:25:28,542
that the team is
using to investigate
561
00:25:28,708 --> 00:25:31,458
the massive cavern
is not only designed
562
00:25:31,625 --> 00:25:35,000
- to operate in low light conditions...
- There's the water.
563
00:25:35,167 --> 00:25:37,708
But is also able to pan and tilt
564
00:25:37,875 --> 00:25:42,750
for a 360-degree view
of its surroundings.
565
00:25:43,875 --> 00:25:46,000
Okay. That's right at 142
at the top of the casing.
566
00:25:46,208 --> 00:25:47,417
Yep.
567
00:25:47,542 --> 00:25:49,667
We should be
inside the cave now.
568
00:25:52,042 --> 00:25:55,125
You can see silt
kind of moving past there.
569
00:25:56,625 --> 00:25:59,167
Paul, just take her
down incrementally.
570
00:25:59,250 --> 00:26:00,625
'Kay.
571
00:26:04,042 --> 00:26:07,208
There it is. Right there.
572
00:26:08,542 --> 00:26:09,822
My God! Look at that.
573
00:26:15,875 --> 00:26:17,500
What is that?
574
00:26:17,667 --> 00:26:19,347
What's that sitting
right on the end of it?
575
00:26:20,042 --> 00:26:21,583
Right there.
576
00:26:21,750 --> 00:26:23,583
Goodness, it looks like a bolt.
577
00:26:24,833 --> 00:26:26,875
It is a
potentially critical moment
578
00:26:27,042 --> 00:26:30,833
for Marty Lagina and other
members of the Oak Island team.
579
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,625
While investigating
the large cavern
580
00:26:33,792 --> 00:26:36,625
some 150 feet deep
in the Money Pit area
581
00:26:36,750 --> 00:26:39,792
known as Aladdin's Cave,
582
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:42,500
they have just obtained
high-definition camera images
583
00:26:42,667 --> 00:26:45,292
of a possibly man-made artifact.
584
00:26:45,458 --> 00:26:47,462
- It does kind of look like a bolt.
- It looks more like a bolt
585
00:26:47,542 --> 00:26:49,000
than anything.
586
00:26:49,208 --> 00:26:51,458
It does have
that shape, of a bolt.
587
00:26:51,667 --> 00:26:53,000
Of the head of a bolt.
588
00:26:54,167 --> 00:26:56,417
We see
something that looks square,
589
00:26:56,625 --> 00:26:58,000
like a square-headed bolt,
590
00:26:58,167 --> 00:27:00,875
which would clearly
be a man-made thing.
591
00:27:01,042 --> 00:27:02,378
That's what we're looking
for in Aladdin's Cave.
592
00:27:02,458 --> 00:27:03,628
We're looking for some evidence
593
00:27:03,708 --> 00:27:05,167
that human beings
were inside it.
594
00:27:05,375 --> 00:27:09,333
So, I guess it's possible,
but I would not call it definitive.
595
00:27:10,542 --> 00:27:13,750
We need a miniature Gary to
go down there and metal-detect.
596
00:27:13,875 --> 00:27:15,275
- Now I would have him lower.
- Now.
597
00:27:15,375 --> 00:27:16,708
Take it down further, Paul!
598
00:27:22,083 --> 00:27:24,000
I think that was not the bottom.
599
00:27:24,167 --> 00:27:26,167
I think that's
potentially a side wall.
600
00:27:27,833 --> 00:27:30,167
I'm just trying to get
any kind of an indication
601
00:27:30,375 --> 00:27:31,875
of where we are.
602
00:27:32,042 --> 00:27:33,750
If there's something,
603
00:27:33,875 --> 00:27:37,042
i.e. a man-made
something underground,
604
00:27:37,208 --> 00:27:39,375
that might have
significant importance
605
00:27:39,583 --> 00:27:41,833
to what the island
is trying to tell us.
606
00:27:44,625 --> 00:27:46,628
It almost has some
kind of a current or something
607
00:27:46,708 --> 00:27:48,833
pulling sediment
across the lens.
608
00:27:49,875 --> 00:27:52,500
See kind of a shadow there.
609
00:27:52,667 --> 00:27:54,875
It looks like something
through the mist there.
610
00:27:57,708 --> 00:27:59,917
You can see stuff now.
611
00:28:08,042 --> 00:28:10,042
- Okay, that's interesting.
- Perfect.
612
00:28:12,208 --> 00:28:14,875
Trying to rotate around.
613
00:28:17,458 --> 00:28:18,750
Seems to be.
614
00:28:18,917 --> 00:28:19,792
It looks wide-open,
but you can't see
615
00:28:19,917 --> 00:28:21,917
through that silt to the wall.
616
00:28:25,958 --> 00:28:29,000
I mean, if anything, we've
proven it's a wide-open cavity.
617
00:28:29,208 --> 00:28:31,292
This is a good opportunity
for us to really map it
618
00:28:31,458 --> 00:28:33,333
- with the sonar.
- I agree.
619
00:28:34,542 --> 00:28:36,333
We're in the
cave, and what we see
620
00:28:36,500 --> 00:28:39,667
is very interesting. I mean,
it could be man-made.
621
00:28:39,833 --> 00:28:42,667
And so, for us, if
this proved anything,
622
00:28:42,792 --> 00:28:44,667
it's worth getting
the sonar into.
623
00:28:44,833 --> 00:28:47,500
And so we're gonna
do that in a few days.
624
00:28:47,667 --> 00:28:49,667
Sonar's gonna
tell us dimensions,
625
00:28:49,875 --> 00:28:51,337
where it's coming
from, where it's going to.
626
00:28:51,417 --> 00:28:54,042
We can look for openings,
and we can use this
627
00:28:54,167 --> 00:28:55,962
to really map out the
underground of the cave.
628
00:28:56,042 --> 00:28:57,375
And I'm really
excited about that,
629
00:28:57,583 --> 00:29:00,333
because, to me, this is
potentially a treasure location.
630
00:29:00,542 --> 00:29:01,792
Okay.
631
00:29:01,958 --> 00:29:03,170
- I think we're done, don't you?
- Yeah.
632
00:29:03,250 --> 00:29:04,833
Let's reconfigure.
633
00:29:05,792 --> 00:29:07,000
Good job, guys.
634
00:29:11,292 --> 00:29:14,750
As operations
continue in the Money Pit area...
635
00:29:14,917 --> 00:29:15,917
Hey, everybody.
636
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:17,792
-Hi! -Hey! How ya doing?
637
00:29:17,958 --> 00:29:21,167
Over half a mile
to the west on Lot 5,
638
00:29:21,333 --> 00:29:24,667
Jack Begley joins members
of the archaeology team
639
00:29:24,875 --> 00:29:28,708
as they search for
more clues in and around
640
00:29:28,917 --> 00:29:30,417
the mysterious stone structure.
641
00:29:30,583 --> 00:29:32,042
It looks like you've
642
00:29:32,208 --> 00:29:34,125
dug a fair amount up
since I've last been here.
643
00:29:34,208 --> 00:29:35,667
Yeah.
644
00:29:35,875 --> 00:29:37,208
After the results
645
00:29:37,375 --> 00:29:40,958
of a magnetometer scan
conducted two weeks ago
646
00:29:41,125 --> 00:29:43,833
revealed that a much
larger stone feature
647
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:46,958
lies beneath the circular
depression at the surface,
648
00:29:47,125 --> 00:29:50,833
the team has expanded
their investigation
649
00:29:50,958 --> 00:29:53,667
in an effort to determine
just how extensive
650
00:29:53,792 --> 00:29:56,250
and old it may be.
651
00:29:56,417 --> 00:29:58,377
And if you look, we kind
of scraped the wall there
652
00:29:58,458 --> 00:30:00,708
a little bit, where it
starts to slope down.
653
00:30:00,875 --> 00:30:03,250
And that will be the tell-all...
654
00:30:03,375 --> 00:30:06,500
Is when we will get an outline
of what this wall looks like?
655
00:30:06,708 --> 00:30:08,167
- Absolutely.
- That's exciting.
656
00:30:08,333 --> 00:30:10,253
Let me get back on sifting
duty with Helen and...
657
00:30:10,375 --> 00:30:13,208
Absolutely. I got a whole
bucket there for ya.
658
00:30:13,375 --> 00:30:17,000
While Jamie and
Fiona continue to remove sediment
659
00:30:17,167 --> 00:30:18,833
covering the feature,
660
00:30:19,042 --> 00:30:22,708
Jack and Helen will
sift the collected spoils
661
00:30:22,875 --> 00:30:25,875
in search of any clues
and possible valuables.
662
00:30:26,042 --> 00:30:28,375
We're getting a few
pipestems coming out.
663
00:30:28,542 --> 00:30:30,875
I remember looking
for years for a pipestem,
664
00:30:31,042 --> 00:30:32,375
and now...
665
00:30:32,542 --> 00:30:34,833
Lot 5 is where they were.
666
00:30:38,167 --> 00:30:40,167
You know what we're not getting
667
00:30:40,333 --> 00:30:41,417
is a lot of nails.
668
00:30:42,667 --> 00:30:43,750
Which is an indication
669
00:30:43,917 --> 00:30:44,708
it could've been a log cabin.
670
00:30:44,875 --> 00:30:46,083
You only use a few, right?
671
00:30:46,250 --> 00:30:48,833
Would that speak
to an earlier time?
672
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:50,292
Yeah. Most likely.
673
00:30:55,250 --> 00:30:58,167
Ooh. Helen, a
nail like this, right?
674
00:30:58,333 --> 00:31:01,000
Yeah. Yeah. We have
found a few of them,
675
00:31:01,208 --> 00:31:03,083
but not as many as
you would expect.
676
00:31:03,250 --> 00:31:04,875
Like, if this was
a frame building,
677
00:31:05,042 --> 00:31:06,670
- you would get a lot more nails.
- Well...
678
00:31:06,750 --> 00:31:08,125
- Yeah, a lot more nails.
- Yeah.
679
00:31:08,250 --> 00:31:10,333
Emma and the CT scanner will...
680
00:31:10,500 --> 00:31:11,962
look through it
and tell us what it is.
681
00:31:12,042 --> 00:31:13,667
It looks square.
682
00:31:13,833 --> 00:31:15,458
- So...
- Okay.
683
00:31:15,583 --> 00:31:17,958
There's too many artifacts
around this area to suggest
684
00:31:18,125 --> 00:31:20,958
that it was just a domestic
household for a family.
685
00:31:21,167 --> 00:31:22,958
Whether it was people here
686
00:31:23,167 --> 00:31:25,417
depositing the treasure
in the Money Pit,
687
00:31:25,542 --> 00:31:27,208
we don't know, but...
688
00:31:27,375 --> 00:31:30,333
digging up these
features archaeologically
689
00:31:30,542 --> 00:31:34,083
is how we should hopefully
figure out those answers.
690
00:31:44,333 --> 00:31:45,667
Hey, guys?
691
00:31:45,875 --> 00:31:47,555
You might want to
come take a look at this.
692
00:31:48,458 --> 00:31:49,500
That's a weird shape.
693
00:31:49,667 --> 00:31:51,292
Wow.
694
00:31:51,500 --> 00:31:53,292
Good find.
695
00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:58,400
- Wow.
- Good find.
696
00:31:58,542 --> 00:31:59,920
It kind of reminds
me of, like, a strap
697
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:01,708
with, like, a metal
fastener through it?
698
00:32:01,875 --> 00:32:02,875
I don't know.
699
00:32:03,042 --> 00:32:04,292
Look at that.
700
00:32:04,417 --> 00:32:06,042
While investigating
701
00:32:06,250 --> 00:32:09,000
the mysterious stone
structure near the shore
702
00:32:09,167 --> 00:32:10,833
on Lot 5 of Oak Island...
703
00:32:11,042 --> 00:32:12,042
Very strange.
704
00:32:12,167 --> 00:32:14,750
Archaeologist Jamie Kouba
705
00:32:14,958 --> 00:32:18,250
has just unearthed another
potentially important clue.
706
00:32:18,417 --> 00:32:20,167
What are your thoughts?
707
00:32:20,292 --> 00:32:21,833
Very different piece.
708
00:32:22,042 --> 00:32:23,762
- It is.
- Wonder if it's, like, part
709
00:32:23,917 --> 00:32:24,708
of a strap hinge.
710
00:32:24,875 --> 00:32:26,333
Like on a door, right?
711
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:29,337
- Yeah.
- So we just don't have
712
00:32:29,417 --> 00:32:31,042
- the swinging part.
- Yeah.
713
00:32:31,208 --> 00:32:32,848
And you hammer
the hinge on a door.
714
00:32:32,958 --> 00:32:34,753
That would make
sense... why you'd have
715
00:32:34,833 --> 00:32:37,750
a flat metal plate with a
metal fastener driven through it.
716
00:32:37,875 --> 00:32:39,250
Yep.
717
00:32:39,417 --> 00:32:41,583
We're finding
really good artifacts
718
00:32:41,750 --> 00:32:44,750
and a lot of things that
the archaeologists deem
719
00:32:44,917 --> 00:32:46,333
to be important,
720
00:32:46,500 --> 00:32:48,375
because we know that
both of these features
721
00:32:48,542 --> 00:32:50,542
are old and predate
the Money Pit,
722
00:32:50,708 --> 00:32:53,333
but we haven't gotten
down to the bottom of it yet.
723
00:32:53,500 --> 00:32:56,250
So it's gonna take some
time to dig everything out,
724
00:32:56,375 --> 00:32:58,417
and hopefully we can figure out
725
00:32:58,583 --> 00:33:00,458
who was here, why and when
726
00:33:00,625 --> 00:33:03,083
and is it related to
the overall treasure?
727
00:33:05,083 --> 00:33:07,292
Oddly enough, I
think there's more
728
00:33:07,458 --> 00:33:08,917
- over here, too.
- Nice.
729
00:33:09,083 --> 00:33:11,000
Look at that.
730
00:33:11,125 --> 00:33:13,750
It's... it's fairly long.
731
00:33:15,042 --> 00:33:16,792
It's free.
732
00:33:16,958 --> 00:33:20,667
- It's a very nice, old fastener.
- It's a large nail.
733
00:33:21,917 --> 00:33:24,667
Well, it's just a
big old rose head.
734
00:33:24,792 --> 00:33:26,250
It is a rose head.
735
00:33:26,417 --> 00:33:28,333
- Yeah. It looks like it.
- Nice.
736
00:33:28,542 --> 00:33:30,500
These were handwrought.
737
00:33:30,583 --> 00:33:33,167
And then the head was
hammered down on all four sides.
738
00:33:33,375 --> 00:33:35,333
You can get them
back in the 1600s.
739
00:33:35,500 --> 00:33:36,750
Yup.
740
00:33:36,958 --> 00:33:37,792
- That's interesting.
- Yeah. That is.
741
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:39,417
It's really nice
742
00:33:39,583 --> 00:33:41,417
to be finding a whole
bunch of extra metal
743
00:33:41,542 --> 00:33:44,000
right next to where we
found that other piece of iron
744
00:33:44,208 --> 00:33:47,167
that matched the
William Phips metals.
745
00:33:47,250 --> 00:33:49,083
- Right. That ringbolt. Yeah.
- Yeah.
746
00:33:49,208 --> 00:33:51,458
- Makes me think of it, too.
- Yeah.
747
00:33:51,667 --> 00:33:55,167
The more evidence
keeps popping up to show
748
00:33:55,333 --> 00:33:56,917
that there were people here
749
00:33:57,042 --> 00:33:59,083
and they were here in
the proper time frame
750
00:33:59,250 --> 00:34:01,292
to hide something
in the Money Pit.
751
00:34:01,500 --> 00:34:05,375
And ever since we found that
piece of metal in the Lot 5 dig
752
00:34:05,542 --> 00:34:10,333
that fits with the Phips idea
that he might've come here,
753
00:34:10,500 --> 00:34:13,667
it's not out of the
realm of possibility
754
00:34:13,875 --> 00:34:17,500
that Phips might've brought
some of the treasure ashore
755
00:34:17,708 --> 00:34:19,292
right through Lot 5.
756
00:34:21,292 --> 00:34:23,170
We can take this
back to the lab to Emma,
757
00:34:23,250 --> 00:34:25,042
and she can run
her analysis on it
758
00:34:25,208 --> 00:34:28,333
and see if the iron matches.
759
00:34:28,500 --> 00:34:30,208
But often,
like, on sites like this,
760
00:34:30,375 --> 00:34:32,042
if you get artifacts in situ
761
00:34:32,167 --> 00:34:33,667
and if you get a lot of nails
762
00:34:33,875 --> 00:34:35,128
here and only here...
763
00:34:35,208 --> 00:34:37,167
It means, like, there
was a window here
764
00:34:37,333 --> 00:34:39,212
- or the door was here. You know, it's an indication...
- Yeah.
765
00:34:39,292 --> 00:34:40,878
- Of what was going on in the building.
- Yeah.
766
00:34:40,958 --> 00:34:43,125
- Yeah.
- The dates are lining up
767
00:34:43,292 --> 00:34:46,792
to possibly match when the
Money Pit might've been built.
768
00:34:46,917 --> 00:34:49,292
- Yeah.
- It's pre-discovery.
769
00:34:49,458 --> 00:34:52,375
So what was going
on during the time
770
00:34:52,542 --> 00:34:54,500
that they were
backfilling this feature?
771
00:34:54,667 --> 00:34:56,000
We don't know, but this
772
00:34:56,208 --> 00:34:58,333
could've been used
directly in association
773
00:34:58,417 --> 00:34:59,792
- with the Money Pit.
- True.
774
00:34:59,958 --> 00:35:01,000
- Yeah.
- The people
775
00:35:01,167 --> 00:35:02,447
who were living here, maybe they
776
00:35:02,542 --> 00:35:06,167
were associated
with the creation
777
00:35:06,292 --> 00:35:08,708
- of the Money Pit.
- Yeah.
778
00:35:08,875 --> 00:35:11,083
If you believe in the
scope and scale of the work
779
00:35:11,250 --> 00:35:13,375
of the Money Pit and
the associated structures,
780
00:35:13,583 --> 00:35:15,833
then, as Lot 5 is concerned,
781
00:35:15,917 --> 00:35:19,375
I think that there's a
building body of evidence
782
00:35:19,583 --> 00:35:23,833
that a structure of this size
could be a possible explanation
783
00:35:24,042 --> 00:35:27,833
to a question that we have
posed since the beginning...
784
00:35:28,042 --> 00:35:30,833
Where were the people?
785
00:35:30,958 --> 00:35:32,962
So, here, Jamie. We'll just put
that in the bag with the rest of
786
00:35:33,042 --> 00:35:35,212
- the artifacts in there.
- Yes, ma'am, that's where she lives now.
787
00:35:35,292 --> 00:35:37,417
- Sweet find.
- Let's find some more.
788
00:35:37,583 --> 00:35:40,417
- Heck yeah.
- Yeah. Let's keep going.
789
00:35:43,458 --> 00:35:45,125
The following day...
790
00:35:49,458 --> 00:35:52,958
the southern region of
Nova Scotia is overwhelmed
791
00:35:53,125 --> 00:35:55,042
by an unexpectedly
damaging storm,
792
00:35:55,208 --> 00:35:57,208
causing power outages
793
00:35:57,375 --> 00:36:00,500
and devastating flooding
throughout the region.
794
00:36:00,708 --> 00:36:03,417
The torrential rains
that have occurred here
795
00:36:03,583 --> 00:36:06,708
in Nova Scotia has
been unrelenting.
796
00:36:06,875 --> 00:36:11,042
I have never seen it like
this in ten years or more,
797
00:36:11,250 --> 00:36:13,083
and in fact, locals
say it's unlike
798
00:36:13,292 --> 00:36:15,250
anything they've
ever seen before.
799
00:36:15,417 --> 00:36:16,958
The roads have been flooded,
800
00:36:17,125 --> 00:36:20,125
literally, homes have been
removed from their foundations.
801
00:36:20,250 --> 00:36:22,500
People's lives have
been interrupted,
802
00:36:22,667 --> 00:36:24,792
and we are behind in our work,
803
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:27,500
and understand that we are not
804
00:36:27,625 --> 00:36:30,458
the only ones who are
experiencing these problems.
805
00:36:33,875 --> 00:36:35,375
One day later...
806
00:36:35,542 --> 00:36:38,250
- Here we are, guys.
- Hello, sir. Hey.
807
00:36:38,417 --> 00:36:39,958
- Hey. How's it going, guys?
- Roger.
808
00:36:40,083 --> 00:36:41,792
What in the hell is
going on here, Roger?
809
00:36:41,958 --> 00:36:43,083
- Not too much.
- No?
810
00:36:43,250 --> 00:36:45,792
Not too much, but I'll tell you,
811
00:36:45,958 --> 00:36:48,792
it's unbelievable, the
damage from that-that storm.
812
00:36:48,917 --> 00:36:50,500
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
813
00:36:50,708 --> 00:36:52,625
Marty Lagina, Craig Tester
814
00:36:52,792 --> 00:36:54,125
and Scott Barlow
815
00:36:54,292 --> 00:36:55,875
arrive in the Money Pit area
816
00:36:56,042 --> 00:36:57,625
after being alerted
817
00:36:57,792 --> 00:36:59,583
that the Garden
Shaft has been flooded
818
00:36:59,708 --> 00:37:03,167
with a massive amount
of standing water.
819
00:37:03,375 --> 00:37:06,208
What I'm most concerned
with, what about this?
820
00:37:06,375 --> 00:37:08,667
Yeah, so, we're encountering
a lot of water down there.
821
00:37:08,875 --> 00:37:10,208
We're pumping, pumping.
822
00:37:10,333 --> 00:37:13,000
How much water was
in there after this rain?
823
00:37:13,208 --> 00:37:15,792
We had 30 feet of
water built up in the shaft.
824
00:37:15,917 --> 00:37:18,042
Now we're pumping every hour.
825
00:37:18,167 --> 00:37:19,500
- Okay.
- It's a lot of water.
826
00:37:19,667 --> 00:37:21,167
I don't like the sounds of that.
827
00:37:21,333 --> 00:37:22,837
I don't like the
sound of it, either.
828
00:37:22,917 --> 00:37:24,253
So, I was concerned
because the water is coming in
829
00:37:24,333 --> 00:37:26,292
- from somewhere, obviously.
- Yeah.
830
00:37:26,500 --> 00:37:28,295
That's an
interesting thing, too, though,
831
00:37:28,375 --> 00:37:31,833
because 30 feet of water
didn't fall in that area.
832
00:37:31,958 --> 00:37:33,500
-No. -Only ten inches did.
833
00:37:33,625 --> 00:37:36,667
- That's right.
- So, it was driven by that storm.
834
00:37:37,583 --> 00:37:39,000
That means
something, doesn't it?
835
00:37:39,208 --> 00:37:40,875
Yeah. But where's
it leaking from?
836
00:37:41,042 --> 00:37:43,000
- I don't know.
- Exactly.
837
00:37:43,208 --> 00:37:45,750
Is that deep enough
to be the flood tunnel?
838
00:37:55,042 --> 00:37:56,087
We had 30 feet of water
839
00:37:56,167 --> 00:37:57,292
built up in the shaft.
840
00:37:57,458 --> 00:37:59,000
It's a lot of water.
841
00:37:59,125 --> 00:38:01,045
Yeah. But where's it
leaking from? I don't' know.
842
00:38:01,208 --> 00:38:03,125
- I don't know.
- Exactly.
843
00:38:03,292 --> 00:38:04,750
In the Money Pit area,
844
00:38:04,917 --> 00:38:08,542
Roger Fortin of Dumas
Contracting Limited
845
00:38:08,708 --> 00:38:11,292
has just informed Marty Lagina,
846
00:38:11,500 --> 00:38:14,750
Craig Tester and Scott
Barlow that something
847
00:38:14,875 --> 00:38:17,792
other than the recent
heavy storms in the area
848
00:38:17,917 --> 00:38:21,083
have caused the
87-foot-deep Garden Shaft
849
00:38:21,292 --> 00:38:22,750
to be mysteriously flooded
850
00:38:22,917 --> 00:38:26,333
with nearly 30 feet
of standing water.
851
00:38:26,500 --> 00:38:28,380
Supposedly, in the Money
Pit, where they had it,
852
00:38:28,542 --> 00:38:30,208
they were down to 90 feet.
853
00:38:30,375 --> 00:38:31,625
Is that a flood tunnel?
854
00:38:31,792 --> 00:38:32,962
That's what I'm
curious to find is where
855
00:38:33,042 --> 00:38:34,083
does that water start?
856
00:38:34,208 --> 00:38:35,667
Last year, I mean,
857
00:38:35,875 --> 00:38:37,462
- this thing was dry. You know yourself.
- Yeah.
858
00:38:37,542 --> 00:38:39,167
We were down there...
859
00:38:39,292 --> 00:38:41,003
Yeah, yeah, I
remember. It was bone-dry.
860
00:38:41,083 --> 00:38:42,333
Ever since members of
861
00:38:42,500 --> 00:38:44,708
the Onslow Company encountered
862
00:38:44,875 --> 00:38:47,333
a believed
booby-trapped flood tunnel
863
00:38:47,458 --> 00:38:49,583
when they excavated
the original Money Pit
864
00:38:49,750 --> 00:38:54,042
down to a depth
of 90 feet in 1804,
865
00:38:54,208 --> 00:38:56,750
anyone who dug in
that immediate area
866
00:38:56,875 --> 00:39:00,792
found their operations
plagued with disastrous results.
867
00:39:00,958 --> 00:39:03,750
Is it possible that
the Oak Island team
868
00:39:03,917 --> 00:39:07,500
has now also
encountered a booby trap
869
00:39:07,625 --> 00:39:10,333
while trying to reach the
potential treasure tunnel
870
00:39:10,500 --> 00:39:13,000
less than ten feet
below the Garden Shaft?
871
00:39:13,167 --> 00:39:17,542
And if so, could it mean
that they are closer than ever
872
00:39:17,708 --> 00:39:19,667
to what people have
been trying to find
873
00:39:19,875 --> 00:39:23,042
since the first documented
search for valuables began
874
00:39:23,208 --> 00:39:25,667
back in 1795?
875
00:39:25,875 --> 00:39:28,333
If there was something to hide,
876
00:39:28,542 --> 00:39:30,417
or something that
needed protection,
877
00:39:30,583 --> 00:39:33,042
certainly we know that the water
878
00:39:33,208 --> 00:39:34,667
would prevent a recovery.
879
00:39:34,875 --> 00:39:38,833
So, could it be another
cleverly designed system
880
00:39:39,042 --> 00:39:42,042
to protect what's either
in the Garden Shaft
881
00:39:42,208 --> 00:39:43,417
or in close proximity to it?
882
00:39:43,583 --> 00:39:44,875
Sure. It could be.
883
00:39:45,042 --> 00:39:46,333
We'll have to wait and see.
884
00:39:46,458 --> 00:39:48,792
I'm concerned that
there's other voids
885
00:39:48,958 --> 00:39:52,375
around the sides of these
walls. That's what I gotta identify.
886
00:39:54,625 --> 00:39:57,833
Well, how many days' delay
is this going to add up to?
887
00:39:58,042 --> 00:40:00,282
It's going to take us a while
to get in there and, again,
888
00:40:00,375 --> 00:40:02,462
- I don't want to do nothing without my people being...
- No, no, I understand.
889
00:40:02,542 --> 00:40:04,170
You've got to have the
engineers look at this.
890
00:40:04,250 --> 00:40:05,378
- Yeah.
- Absolutely. Absolutely.
891
00:40:05,458 --> 00:40:07,500
This is so, so damn typical.
892
00:40:07,708 --> 00:40:11,375
I mean, it's
maddeningly typical.
893
00:40:11,542 --> 00:40:14,833
We got the best guys in the
world here digging a shaft.
894
00:40:15,042 --> 00:40:16,545
We're facing the same
problem everybody else
895
00:40:16,625 --> 00:40:17,833
had for the last 200 years.
896
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:20,333
We never, never
expected nothing like this.
897
00:40:20,500 --> 00:40:22,125
Never. Not even close.
898
00:40:22,333 --> 00:40:23,875
That's the frustrating part
899
00:40:24,042 --> 00:40:25,917
is where do you start,
and what do you do?
900
00:40:26,125 --> 00:40:28,708
It was a main intent of
this year's exploration
901
00:40:28,875 --> 00:40:31,000
to get to the bottom
of the Garden Shaft.
902
00:40:31,208 --> 00:40:33,458
It's frustrating to
me, because last year
903
00:40:33,542 --> 00:40:35,167
that thing was
absolutely bone-dry.
904
00:40:35,333 --> 00:40:36,333
What happened?
905
00:40:36,458 --> 00:40:38,167
This is a surprise.
906
00:40:38,250 --> 00:40:41,292
The bottom line is it's
already cost us delay,
907
00:40:41,375 --> 00:40:42,542
and we can't afford that.
908
00:40:42,750 --> 00:40:44,750
Okay, Roger. We're
gonna let you go,
909
00:40:44,917 --> 00:40:46,878
so you can talk to HQ,
and we got other stuff to do.
910
00:40:46,958 --> 00:40:49,000
- Let us know what happens.
- I will.
911
00:40:49,167 --> 00:40:50,792
I'll keep you posted.
912
00:40:50,958 --> 00:40:54,625
The forces of nature
have caused concerning setbacks
913
00:40:54,792 --> 00:40:58,042
across the island for
Rick, Marty and their team.
914
00:40:58,208 --> 00:41:01,042
However, it also appears
915
00:41:01,250 --> 00:41:04,333
that the much more
mysterious forces of Oak Island
916
00:41:04,500 --> 00:41:06,500
have intervened once again
917
00:41:06,708 --> 00:41:09,583
to challenge their quest
to solve the mystery.
918
00:41:09,750 --> 00:41:13,500
For 228 years now,
919
00:41:13,667 --> 00:41:15,917
it has remained a losing battle
920
00:41:16,125 --> 00:41:18,042
for determined searchers.
921
00:41:18,208 --> 00:41:20,667
But now, as potentially critical
922
00:41:20,875 --> 00:41:24,208
breakthroughs may be
within reach on Lot 5,
923
00:41:24,375 --> 00:41:27,333
in a deep,
possibly man-made cave
924
00:41:27,542 --> 00:41:29,417
and in the Garden Shaft,
925
00:41:29,542 --> 00:41:33,625
is the tide about to turn?
