SPOILER

They find an alien boner at the bottom of the pit

They then fight each other to the death to see who gets to ride the boner

The explosion mapping is a cool idea.

The dudes selling the coffer dam though...

"I know how we can get these idiots to buy the dam, grab the augmented reality headsets!"

12 hours, two civil war buttons, and the insinuation that they found the Ark of the Covenant later. . .

That show should have died off years ago

They've been "Right on the trail!" of some big fuck-off payday treasure for... How many fucking years has this clickbait shit been on TV?

They play the same exact clips over and over, jus edited for each season. The fuck.

you should give them some credit, they are the first ones to actually make money from the money pit.

They have probably made 20-30 million off the show at a cost to them of a few hundred grand and a few trinkets they bought off ebay.

The repetition on this show is about as bad as it gets for reality TV.

If someone really wanted what was at the bottom of that island they would have hydraulic mined it to bedrock a long time ago.

IDK if the government would allow it, the pulled their permit a year or two back for some minor infraction IIRC.

So they find a supposed crossbow bolt that is apparently ancient yet in pretty good shape.  Wouldn't something like that be rusted completely away if it is as old as they say?

Get out of here with your logic! It's obviously ancient Roman.

Next thing you know, you'll be questioning whether every hunk of buried scrap wood is really a collapsed treasure tunnel.

I have it on for background noise because I refuse to watch The Conners.  What annoys me most is the stupid narrator with the, "Can this be a long lost widget from ancient history?"  I find myself saying, "No, it can't be" in response.  The tenuous claims they make to anything historical is laughable.  It's as bad as the guys looking for the Jesuit gold.

I doubt it's a crossbow bolt.  Every example I've seen had a wooden shaft and a steel broadhead or bodkin.

He can be annoying, but the rest of them are so dry and boring. Plus he's the only one who actually finds anything.

I'm interested in what they find, not the "personalities" that do the finding.

If they knew gold was there, and with the money they are blowing. There should be a hole like looking off hoover dam. Its just trinket metal detecting and suspense now.

Think about it. If you were to bury a treasure on an island that isn't inhabited how far down would you bury it? Given the state of the art at the time of burial, pick and shovel, how wide would you have to dig the mouth of the hole to keep it from collapsing in on it's self? This show is pure bullshit, they will NEVER find any thing.

I love this show.

I first heard about the Oak Island legend 30 years ago, and watched every show about it, and read every article about it I could.

On the show they are actually digging up the island, which is certainly more real and interesting then all the info I read or saw prior to it.

Good point, and one of the theories is the money pit is a distraction. The real area is shallow, and connected by a tunnel off the pit.

They teased a find of a crossbow bolt being Roman. While not gold, a very interesting find.

I watched some of the first season but once you watch the same drama over and over again with no result it gets old so I quit.   I'll just wait and see if they acutally find something then go back and watch that episode or read about it in the news...surprised they have been able to keep viewers going this long with nothing to really show for it.

The Canadian Government has already claimed any "treasure" they might find through the "Oak Island Treasure Act". If these guys get rich, it will be from the televisions royalties, book sales, T-shirts, etc.

The truth is, they will find nothing of monetary value. For 220 years this treasure hunt has been nothing more than a dog chasing it's own tail. One treasure hunter using the stories, rumors and remnants of a previous treasure hunter as "proof" that something of great value was entombed on the island. There are no man-made flood tunnels, no 90 foot stone, no treasure shaft. The "depression in the soil" that Daniel McGinnis found in 1799 was nothing more than a common feature of the islands geologic make-up (Karst topography).

I spent a few years as an amateur-professional treasure hunter or as my Wife refers to it; "my get poor quick scheme". While I did find lost treasure, it cost me about 2X it's net worth to recover (lawyers, accountants and insurance being the biggest costs)

One of the investor groups I was part of had a VERY famous treasure hunting family at the helm (an NDA prevents me from dropping names). They had looked into the Oak Island Treasure in the late '60s, spent a Summer on the island and could not find one single piece of substantiated evidence that the island had ever been used for more than clandestinely careening ships (pirates or unfriendly nations) to affect emergency repairs.

I have a sneaking hunch they have already found all the money....that is the money they got from selling the whole thing to the TV channel.
If they had found anything noteworthy, it would have already been on the news, and the show couldn't have kept it quiet...  So this season will be like all the others, with them finding a few odds and ends, but no significant "treasure".
