Josh Gates and treasure hunters Dennis and Ken Parada uncover strong evidence that millions in Civil War gold lie beneath Dents Run — but when the FBI digs, questions flood in. A leaked FBI video confirms what treasure hunters have claimed for years: the gold was real.




Those FBI People are really Strange ! They all Have Round Heads !

[The FBI's statement regarding the excavation at Dents Run indicates that they conducted a court-authorized excavation but found nothing. The FBI's search was part of an ongoing investigation, and any additional comments would be inappropriate at this time. The excavation ended on March 14, 2018, and the FBI has not found any gold, despite claims from treasure hunters that they may have discovered a cache of gold. The legal battle surrounding the excavation continues, with the FBI defending its handling of the materials and the treasure hunter challenging the outcome.

[3cylbill]

[Tesorodeoro]

So they really did achieve their objective! A reality TV Show.

 

[SeabeeRon]

I love the guys filling a wooden box with gold bars (0:50) and then two of them lift that box and put it on the wagon (0:59). Gold must have been a lot lighter back then.

They didn't have Moving Pictures, Much Less Color during the Civil War.
It's just a TV Re-enactment

Yeah, I got that. It was just funny.

So this is an entertainment series based partly on a legend and partly on news stories of the dig. It does not appear to be a reality tv show and may have no connection to FK.

The video they are claiming “proves” they retrieved valuables didn’t really seem too outstanding unless someone in the background is picking stuff up. It appears to be someone documenting what they are doing. “We have enough evidence to dig here and we think there is gold or silver based on readings.” Seems reasonable to me.

No mention of more exciting things like a human skeleton of a man that that hid recovered pirate booty or secret hidden cameras that documented the entire dig unknown to the FBI.

Im still at the point that this is almost exactly as entertaining as reading a 1960’s treasure rag story. I don’t mind my imagination drifting off as long as I come back to reality after a few minutes. Thank you for posting that video. It would also be entertaining if they covered the discussions Prada had here (because there were A Lot of them straight from the horse’s mouth.

Like the Gold Rush & Bearing Sea Most Stories Have a Bases in Truth,
But Drama added to keep people interested.

when your talking past events a hundred or so years old, expect names to be spelled phonetically and with deep accents occasionally .
You See that on Maps where Peoples Names are Misspelled . Then add to that , Amounts & Locations Can be off/Exagerated/forgotten.
So a New One is Used in the Aritcle.

I'm Sure the Pradas had done there Research Before even Stepping on Site & Trust them More then Comey's FBI

The Scene that Day was Live on the news updates.
Feds Tents, 4 Wheelers, Big Bucks Spent .
Security to Keep even Prada & Reportres Away !

They Didn't Dig an Empty Hole ! That I'm Sure
