00:00It's exciting. I'm hoping for something very substantial in the garden shaft.
00:05This is where the treasure hunt actually begins. The Oak Island team just found gold inside an old
00:11wooden ladder deep underground. This isn't just a story. Someone really hid something long ago.
00:17The trees have gold, the water has gold, and even the dirt is full of clues.
00:22They found walls, roads, and wood that looked like they came from the 1500s.
00:27Tune in. Something broke open at 90 feet and what came out was not dirt.
00:33Gold in water, gold in trees, and a tunnel below. The crew wasn't just poking holes anymore. They
00:39were armed with fancy machines, years of frustration, and just enough proof to make
00:43even the biggest doubters lean forward. It began with the water. Not just any water,
00:48but liquid laced with tiny hints of gold. Not coins, not bars, just little flakes floating like secrets.
00:55But beneath the shimmer, something pulsed. And it wasn't gold. They called the new hot spot the
01:01Baby Blob. Funny name for something that might be hiding something dangerous.
01:06This patch of dirt, no bigger than a tool shed, had the right numbers.
01:10It lined up with every weird signal, every strange echo, every bone-dry hunch.
01:15The gold traces led there. The core samples pointed there. Even the air seemed heavier in that exact spot.
01:22And then they found it. A ladder. Not new, not safe, not built by anyone alive.
01:29This old hand-whittled thing had been buried so deep it might as well have come with a map and a curse.
01:34It wasn't just left behind, it was hidden, tucked in a tunnel like someone knew it would be found eventually.
01:40Yeah. I just wanted to put it in our XRF because we have detected high gold values in the area.
01:46High gold values. Right.
01:48Not today, not tomorrow, but one day. That day had come. The garden shaft became their playground.
01:56Or maybe their battleground. They dragged rigs into place, lowered steel into the earth and waited.
02:02Something cracked at 90 feet. A grinding howl came up from the dirt.
02:07They hit a hole, a space where no space should be. The crew froze. That wasn't just empty ground,
02:13that was design. Three different boreholes, all in a straight line. East to west, perfect alignment.
02:20That doesn't happen by accident. Something or someone had built a tunnel under their feet.
02:25That old shaft wasn't alone. The dirt gave up wood. Not splinters, but chunks. Smooth, cut,
02:32not chewed up by time. This was the kind of wood someone shaped on purpose. Maybe a chest,
02:38maybe a post, maybe something worse. Gold, not loads, not enough to make your jaw drop,
02:44but enough to prove they weren't just drilling for ghosts. Enough to link everything. The water,
02:50the trees, the tunnels. Everything hummed with the same golden signal. Rick practically melted when
02:56he saw the numbers. He'd been chasing shadows for years and now the shadows were pointing somewhere.
03:01Every missed clue, every false alarm, every empty dog suddenly matted. The treasure didn't laugh at them
03:07this time. It whispered. I mean, all we can do is continue like with the water to cross check,
03:12like check other samples, see if we can duplicate. This girl can find gold. That's a superpower
03:19around here. More digging, more dirt, more sweat. The drill dove into the baby blob again,
03:25chasing that space. They reached 98 and a half feet, another hole, another void. They cracked open the
03:31core and found more wood. Same texture, same color, same promise. The team circled the sample like
03:38vultures around a fresh discovery. Terry wanted a slice. Charles leaned in. Everyone wanted a piece.
03:46They weren't looking at dirt anymore. They were staring at a clue carved by someone long dead.
03:52Back at the lab, the team dried out the wood and fired up the machine again. Emma blinked at the
03:57readings. Gold again. Tiny amounts, but enough to matter. The patterns matched. The wood knew something.
04:04It had been buried in the same golden breath that hung over the baby blob. The garden shaft groaned.
04:10Down below, the team hit a wall of silence. Brandon and Alex set up the new drill, watching the screen
04:16as the shaft swallowed more steel. This time, they weren't guessing. They aimed the drill at angles,
04:22probing the walls like a dentist with a new patient. Twelve holes. Each one a chance. His logic was sharp.
04:29The water showed gold. The wood soaked it in. Test the inside of the shaft. If it's leaking gold,
04:36it'll show. No need to wait for every borehole to scream out treasure. Sometimes a whisper is enough.
04:42The drilling hit something again. Loud screeches echoed through the site. Everyone turned. The rods cut
04:48through something soft. They hit the air again. A new space. Another void. At 90 feet. Terry mapped it out.
04:55The borehole lined up with two others. East, west. Always the same. The math was brutal. Whatever was
05:01buried here had been planned. Dug by hands with purpose. He rushed back. His phone buzzed. He knew
05:08before he picked up that it was time. The drill hit something real. The rods dipped, the space widened,
05:14and the pressure dropped. The lab ran tests again. Another flicker. More gold. Always gold. This
05:21wasn't just a hunt anymore. It was a confession. The island had been hiding something and now it was
05:27finally showing signs of guilt. He called it the trail. Not a tunnel. Not a shaft. A trail. Each
05:34step, each test, each drill was another bread crumb. And the trail was getting clearer. Even skeptics on
05:40the team started to lean in. Marty, usually the loud realist, went quiet. His eyes darted across maps.
05:46His fingers traced old diagrams. They weren't chasing fairy tales. Not anymore. They drilled deeper.
05:53Doug wider. Every new borehole was aimed with intent. They weren't searching blind. They were hunting
05:59something that didn't want to be found. The probe inside the garden shaft found more space. More air.
06:05It pressed into the wall and came back with splinters. His team tagged each one. Another round of tests.
06:11Another breath held. Again, gold. Not fool's gold. Not wishful thinking. Real traces. They weren't digging
06:19up trash. They were unwrapping a buried message. Brandon, this is 55 feet, right? Yes, sir. So,
06:26close to that depth. When we were drilling, we hit a void in this area. So, just a heads up. Wow.
06:32Heads up. Surprise, surprise, man. Surprise, surprise. Back in the tent, he and Alex watched the monitors. The
06:38machine dove into the dirt. Another crunch. Another break. Brandon called out the depth. They were below
06:45the old void now. He asked for every piece, every shaving. Nothing tossed. Everything tested. As the
06:52sun dropped, the team gathered. They laid out the samples one by one. Soil. Wood. Dust. All lined up like
07:00suspects. The air in the tent was thick with tension. Emma scanned the latest sample. Her fingers moved over
07:06the keyboard. Her eyes narrowed. Right when things felt weird enough, the island shouted louder. Signs of
07:12treasure all over Oak Island. Rick Lagina was buzzing like a kid on a sugar high. No time to waste. He
07:19bolted out of the tent with bags of dirt, chunks of timber, and a face full of determination. Every whisper,
07:25every shadow, every old, maybe there's treasure here, had led them to this point. He had to show it to
07:31Emma. The one person who could actually tell them if they had stumbled onto gold or just another dusty
07:37piece of nonsense. Meanwhile, Peter Romke, a guy who chops trees for a living but apparently also
07:44builds rock walls for fun, stood on lot 26 staring down a messy pile of stones like he just found
07:51Atlantis. His verdict? Not just some old rocks. This was a wall. A proper structured, leaning in like a hug
07:59kind of wall. The kind you don't slap together when you're bored but build with care. The kind of wall
08:05you build when you're hiding something or protecting something valuable. Romke dropped a little bombshell.
08:11This wall wasn't just random. The tiny rocks at the base, classic castle building 101, England,
08:17Scotland, rubble foundations, medieval stuff. Who knew a forestry guy would be the one to point that out?
08:23The man basically said this looks like the kind of base you'd put a castle on. On Oak Island,
08:28right next to that lovely rock wall? A well. Not your standard backyard well either. It looked weird,
08:35different, ancient. One expert had told them folks were building wells like that back in the 11th
08:40century. That's not just old. That's before forks were popular. Flashback to 2016. Same kind of well
08:47pops up at New Ross. A spot that some say was a Templar hideout. The helmet-wearing, secret-holding,
08:54treasure-loving Templars. Suddenly, things were adding up in all the wrong or right ways.
08:59Back in the present, things got even juicier. Romke pointed out the wall could have been built
09:04using rubble from tunnel digging. If you were trying to keep something hidden underground,
09:09you'd need to mask the mess somehow. That rubble wall? Perfect cover. Meanwhile,
09:14Charles and Brandon were babysitting the latest round of core drilling in the money pit. The big
09:19moment? The drill jammed up on something at 11 feet. Could be just another rock. Could be a door
09:25to the past. No one knew. The tension? Thick enough to slice with a spoon. Enter Emma Culligan,
09:32the one with the gold detector. Rick had passed her those dusty samples and now she was back.
09:38Oh my gosh, we're into something. It's all through there. There's a pretty solid chunk in the middle of it.
09:44Someone used gold-lined wood when building the shaft. Who does that unless you're guarding something
09:51worth more? She scanned, confirmed, and tossed out a number. Not a big number by Vegas standards,
09:58but big enough in the science world to mean this ain't nothing. Marty lit up like a Christmas tree.
10:03Everyone was buzzing. The pieces were falling into place. This wasn't a wild theory anymore. It was
10:10physical. Tangible. Gold has touched this piece of wood real. Now they were getting somewhere.
10:17The theory? Maybe there's a shallow chamber. A side pocket vault hidden just off the garden shaft.
10:23Maybe the treasure isn't deeper, but sneakier. Could be tucked away right under their feet.
10:29Then the bricks showed up. Real bricks. Used in the original shaft's walls. More tests, more speculation,
10:36more theories. That hint of gold lingered in every sample. If this was a scam, someone went all in
10:43centuries ago. Rick and the team weren't just playing detective now. They were planning, digging
10:48deeper, hoping the trail didn't go cold. Meanwhile, across the island, the war room was heating up.
10:55Tom Nolan opened his dad's old notebook. Fred Nolan, the legend. The man who found everything from ship
11:01parts in the swamp to a boulder cross formation that looked like it belonged on the back of a dollar
11:06bill. And apparently, a hidden well, too. The well? Buried. Not open. Strange.
11:14Most island wells are just there. This one was intentionally hidden. Buried. Covered up like
11:20someone didn't want it found. Rick and Alex wasted no time digging on lot 11. They hit pay dirt.
11:27Literally. If we get lucky, this will tell us.
11:29Drills go ahead now. All right, brother. We're in business. Yep.
11:36Gary, the metal guy, scanned the fresh pile and pulled out a rose-head spike. Handmade, old,
11:41pre-1795 kind of old. The kind of thing people used when they were serious about building or hiding.
11:47Then came the hook. Another old-school artifact, probably used for pulling water or pulling secrets.
11:53Add in the spike, the hook, and the wall. And suddenly, this wasn't just a well. It was a setup.
12:00Gary said the hook looked a lot like another one they found on lot 8, which had been dated to the 1600s.
12:07Same design. Same purpose. Same eerie vibe. The deeper they went, the more the well started to
12:13resemble the one back on lot 26. Same structure. Same stacked stones. Same feeling that something bigger
12:20was at play. The kicker? Silver. That hidden well wasn't just mimicking its twin. It had its own
12:28precious trace. Not gold this time, but silver. The island wasn't just dropping hints now. It was
12:34shouting. Two wells opposite ends of the island. Same craftsmanship. Same secrecy. Same buried intentions.
12:42Whoever built them wasn't leaving breadcrumbs. They were laying out a blueprint. A hidden underground
12:48blueprint. And if the team could crack it, maybe, just maybe, the treasure everyone laughs about would
12:54finally show itself. But the swamp loomed nearby. That damp reminder that every dig came with risk.
13:00Ecological ones. Political ones. The kind that got things shut down just when they were getting good.
13:06Meanwhile, in the official nerve center, the interpretive center, Emma Culligan is working her magic.
13:12She's the archaeometallurgy. The person who pokes at old stuff to figure out if it's shiny or just dirt.
13:18This time she's looking at wood pulled from the garden shaft. 58 feet deep. Not 10, not 20. 58.
13:26That's way past casual curiosity. This wood isn't just damp kindling. It's full of story. She scans it
13:33using one of those futuristic machines and finds something interesting. Not fairy dust, but gold. Not a
13:40lot, but enough to make you pay attention. What's wilder is the deeper they go, the more gold shows up.
13:47Not just once. Repeated. Different depths, different samples, same glittery hint.
13:52You'd think the island was teasing them, just a little more each time. The deeper they dug,
13:57the clearer it got. Someone was here before. A tunnel, a shaft, and a road to the 1500s.
14:04Across the site, Craig Tester is running the show. Picture a guy who doesn't crack a smile unless dirt's
14:10falling through a screen. He's with the Dumas drilling team, who are currently at 68 feet down
14:16and going for 80. Their goal? To waterproof the levels as they go, get clean samples, and try to hit a
14:23jackpot. This isn't wild guessing. They've got reasons. First, the gold in the wood. Then a tunnel
14:29was found at 98 feet. Add the silver and gold traces from the treasure zone nearby, and suddenly the garden
14:36shaft looks like more than just a big hole. It's becoming the center of something. Paul Cote from the
14:42drilling team has a system. 12 holes per set, strategically placed around the shaft. They're not just
14:49drilling for the fun of it. They're mapping out what's hiding around it. If gold shows up in these
14:54extra holes, it's another clue. The goal isn't just to find treasure. It's to prove this whole setup is
15:00part of a larger machine. You've got to affirm whether or not it is a tunnel, and the only way to learn that
15:05is to pull the car. Once a forgotten stretch of dirt, now it's buzzing. Tom Nolan's father believed
15:11something was going on here, and his notes are now being reread like treasure maps. In this lot is
15:17something called the quadrilateral, basically a geometric pile of rocks that screams purpose.
15:24As they dig in lot 13, it gets strange fast. Burned sticks, weird clay, charred bits that look like
15:30someone set up a barbecue centuries ago. They're not guessing here. This stuff is out of place. It
15:37doesn't belong in this part of the island, and that means someone brought it or hid something under it.
15:43And then, flashbacks. That stone road in the swamp? They thought it was a fluke, until they found the
15:49same design in Portugal. Not kind of similar, nearly identical. Built with the same stone laying technique
15:56known to have been used by the Portuguese during the 1400s and 1500s. That little coincidence? Not so little
16:03anymore. Suddenly, theories start stacking up. Burned wood, odd-shaped formations, gold trace, stone roads,
16:11strange clay, all pointing to something buried. Not just in the ground, but in history. Rick thinks it's
16:18not just a structure. It's a vault. A hand-built, secret burial-type vault covered in blue clay to keep
16:24water out and buried under boulders like a medieval safe. Dr. Ian Spooner steps in to test this. He's not
16:31here to humor theories. He pokes the ground with scientific sticks. When he pulls up clay fused to
16:38charred wood, even he pauses. That's not natural. That's someone hiding something. The soil's all
16:44wrong for this area. Too thick. Too rich. Too tampered. It's not just a spot. It's a scene. A piece of land
16:51manipulated to hide, protect, and seal something in. That's not just evidence. It's motive. And motive means
16:58human involvement. Cue the war room. They call up researchers across Europe, particularly one from
17:05the Azores named Francisco Nogueira. He's got files, ideas, and the kind of deep knowledge you only get
17:11from obsessing over Portuguese maritime history. He drops the kind of bombshell that rewrites maps.
17:17The Order of Christ, aka the rebranded Portuguese Knights Templar, was active in the Azores and possibly
17:24stashed valuables during the chaos of the 1500s. There was a succession crisis. The king died without
17:31heirs. A whole mess broke out. Somewhere in the middle of that, a pile of treasure vanished. And
17:36Francisco thinks the rock walls on Oak Island look suspiciously Portuguese. Big outer rocks, little ones
17:42in the middle. A technique used by those same Templar leftovers. Back to Rick. He was in Portugal.
17:49He walked the roads, saw the walls, and something clicked. If those people were losing power, losing
17:55land, and maybe losing their heads, hiding their riches in a new world made sense. Oak Island fits
18:01that timeline. That style. That motive. The next day… These artifacts are pushing us back farther in
18:07time than I ever thought we would see here. We're finding answers. Way back. Way back. The next day,
18:15the team heads back to Lot 13 with fresh drills and dirty fingernails. They're pulling up more of that
18:20blue clay and charred wood. Something is under it. Then, the big surprise. A wall. A stone wall
18:28so neatly and oddly built it doesn't just look old. It looks intentional. The dating? Sometime between 1464
18:36and 1638. That's right in the danger zone of Portuguese power struggles and early transatlantic trips.
18:43You can almost picture it. Panicked sailors offloading crates, building walls, digging shafts,
18:49laying stone roads in the middle of the forest. Laird, the site archaeologist, says this type of wall
18:55would normally divide farmland. But farmland doesn't explain blue clay or burned wood. Rick thinks it's
19:01infrastructure. Not fields. Features. Not for crops. For protection. It's not what's above ground that
19:09matters. It's what's below. Jack Bagley agrees. You don't build a double wall out here in the woods
19:15unless you've got a plan. That takes time, tools, and purpose. All signs are pointing towards someone
19:21going to serious lengths to keep something hidden. Back in the war room, they pull out more maps,
19:27more names, more dates. The Inquisition was happening back then. Religious groups were being hunted,
19:34wealth was being seized, and anyone with a stash of gold would have been desperate to get it out of
19:39Europe. Especially those with ships. Especially those connected to the order of Christ. The shaft,
19:46the tunnel, the wall, the road, the burned wood, the strange sediments. They're all whispering the same
19:54thing. That something was buried here. And it wasn't an accident. It was designed. It was hidden. And it might
20:01just be waiting. They're not done yet. Not by a long shot. They've got more samples to analyze, more ground
20:08to dig, and more experts to call. They're even planning to visit more sites in Europe. This isn't
20:13just about Oak Island anymore. It's about connecting the dots between continents, secrets, and centuries.
20:19And while they're still chasing shadows and half-buried dreams, this time they've got evidence. Not stories. Not
20:26hearsay. Not just a feeling. Actual, physical pieces that point to something big. What if the real reason
20:33behind all the tunnels and traps was to make sure no one opened them? Leave your thoughts in the comments,
