But.... what if it's an ancient Roman concrete wall and the rubber pipes were added later?!?

Dude! Stop!!!

The mental gymnastics in this episode were breathtaking. Even by their standards.

Concrete? The Romans had that! But rubber was invented in the 19th century. So, uhhhh....maybe someone in 1850 installed rubber pipes into this ancient Roman concrete wall....for, uhhhh....some reason. (everyone nods in approval and says yep)

And I like how they're pulling out tiny shreds of parchment. From Shakespeare's original manuscripts, of course! Which are obviously now completely destroyed by water and drilling.

I've watched every episode.since season one. The last few have been disappointing in that they seem to be mostly filler to make the higher episode count this season. I thought we'd see something about the iron spike Gary Drayton found on the slipway. I think it's an augur bit for drilling holes.

They haven't shown any carbon dating results yet this season from any of the wood from H-8 or Smith's Cove.

The pipes might be rubber, but they didn't say for sure what they were. It's curious because 300 years ago without modern technology, it would be difficult to build the kind of structures they are finding below low tide level.

Could it be the Peruvians from 5 BC were working as sub-contractors for the Romans and made rubber hoses through the concrete to allow water to flood the dry dock after Francis Bacon's boat was repaired?

And Jesus Christ himself was piloting the boat!
And He left business cards made of lead of an image of Himself giving hugs on the shore before He left!
Could it be?!

And the hugs were made of parchment!

They were supposedly written by Sir Francis Bacon so I can see hiding them but not 187 feet down on an island in Nova Scotia.

I have no idea what’s down there but someone went to an awful lot of trouble to put it there. I believe something is/was down there, too much evidence like the human bones for there not to be.

Having said that, I think the black slave guy found all the gold years ago. Poor black guy doesn’t end up rich selling cabbage.

Cabbage farmer found the loot that wasn't buried deep.

Seems like we all agree whatever was buried deep has been completely compromised and destroyed by searchers and if there is a "Chappell Vault" is now the Chappell Sieve with all the holes drilled through it. If there was manuscripts or ancient texts they are gone now from all the sea water flooding.

This.

I remember when I heard them mention this in passing, my old lady and I just looked at each other and started laughing.

So a freed slave shows up with barely the clothes on his back, buys a lot and becomes a cabbage farmer, and then dies as one of the most wealthy men in the area? How is this little nugget of information just mentioned in passing? It would seem to me that it's a fairly important part of the story.....

It's now turned into Ghost Stories? wtf is going on. Jesus Christ I am so disappointed in myself for watching this fucking piece of shit waste of time show. The History channel and the Leguna's can rape themselves in Smith's cave and I hope they die a slow bloody AIDS filled painful fucking death for wasting my time.
See you next week.

They have a much higher episode count this year so they are running a lot of "filler". Here's the thing, Gary Drayton found an iron rod in the slipway 2 weeks ago. 3 weeks ago they uncovered all those structures in the cove. They also pulled up parchment from H8. What I am interested in learning is the carbon dating results from the wood in the cove and the parchment from H8.

Could it be if they found nothing worthwhile this because if they found the Ark of the Covenant it would have been on the news and not resorting to "Ghost Adventures" for an episode.

If they wanted to find ghosts and if there is treasure, they should have contacted Steve and Amy

Thanks for the heads up.
Watched about 5 minutes of the show then deleted it.
I bet this last show lost a few watchers.
Between this and the Digging Deeper show and that annoying host guy, I wonder if other viewers like myself are getting fed up and deciding to stop watching and just wait until there is an official announcement that something was found.
After all, if anything significant was actually found it would be on the news weeks before it was aired.

If they wanted to do a Ghost Story episode they should have tried contacting all of the former guests on this show who have died while they've been busy milking this crap for all its worth.

I'm sure they have some pretty serious NDA's in place, and it wouldn't surprise me if even the 3rd party contractors working the drilling rigs have information compartmentalized to some degree.

I don't care if they find any gold and jewels at all. What I want to know is, what happened on the island prior to the so-called "money pit" discovery, was there ever actually a money pit on the island, and if so, who dug it and why? I think it might be possible to answer some or all of these questions without finding a pile of gold and jewels. But they will need to get any deep flooding (whether through natural or man-made sources) under control first.
