Do We get 'free stuff' and can I avoid having to go to California?
What's in it for us, or is it just a 15 minutes of fame kind of thing?

The groups I hunt with are real personalities, the only problem is that almost every sentence would contain Bleeps. I am speaking of the NC Silver Slayers and the B.O.B.s, they know who they are. Would love to see both groups hunting weekly. Never a dull moment with all those characters.

We love personalities and great characters! Definitely send in a submission :) And don't worry, we have a great bleep button! ha

And for "what you get" from it, well we're looking for people who are truly searching for their next great adventure and are passionate about history, exploration and treasure hunting! Ideally we'd find a duo or group of great characters who are truly serious about the process.

Definitely not fishing! Our company is called This Is Just A Test (feel free to check us out at TIJAT.com) and we've produced a number of series for Animal Planet, Nat Geo, History Channel, etc. My personal favorite show we've done is called Missing Dial on Nat Geo, a fascinating look into one family's search for his son.

The Ultimate Treasure...An Alien Starship!

I tried recover a sunken UFO once. The government got there before me. You could do a story on that, but nobody would ever believe it. However DARPA funded a web site Starship

Most if not all of us here are extraordinarily into researching history and seeking our next greatest find. Still I ask of thee, "what's in it for us?"

Well of course if selected for the show you'll be compensated for your time and appearance, but we're not looking for people who want to be famous or anything like that. Right now we're just in the casting phase, so specifics about "what you'll get" would be worked out with producers if selected.

I know where Forrest Fenn's treasure is.

You fund it and I'll let you go along with my wife and I and our parrot.

You will have to bleep her a lot though. (the parrot mostly, but occasionally the wife)

Hi; SCRAPPY; Nope that is how We talk here in Boston if your a Native son. And yeah the seas did get to my vocabulary.!! Boston is the only place in the US that you still hear the Olde King's English spoken routinely. Bostonian's have Our own Vocabulary you won't find anywhere else. It's a strange mix of English and Gaelic languages but I know it well.!! :leprechaun-hat:
SUSANMN I'll give you my Hancock any time. Glad to help the women folks here anytime. PEACE:RONB :leprechaun-hat:
