I don't think this spoils anything, but they pulled up 5 chests with Templar crosses on them loaded with gold coins and diamonds, plus the Ark of the Covenant which still had the Ten Commandments and also had the grail inside, but of course we have to wait til next year to see if there is anything important there.

That's an eye-roller.

And how in the world would someone 400 years ago moved and buried a giant metal plate 75 feet below ground?

Now you have a spinoff series, so looks like they've milked this one for all it's worth.

Anyway, the show makes for some good, cheap entertainment.  Now, kindly skedaddle your skeptical butt down the road..

Just am not a fan of the show. Watched at beginning but got bored after first season.

Will go back and watch if they find it.

Although I do believe that something significant is there.

But doesn't the legend say that one more person has to die before it is found ?

One of the brothers is going to have to push the other down the hole in order to find treasure.

I don't know what, but something happened on that island.  I mean the wood the original people found every ten feet along with the stone at 90ft.  

These guys are bringing up stuff that pre-dates the original explorers.  

And I still blame most of the issues on the cigarette smoking guy on the bulldozer.

I haven't bothered to research it - which seems like it would be pretty tough, anyway - but if what they've revealed so far is true/real it's pretty fascinating.

I don't know if a container full of gold actually fell off or was pushed off a ship, but it seems to me like this gold probably did exist and was heisted by some Union soldiers from Michigan.
