I would dig a 50x50x200 foot pit and that would be the end of it. Analyze all man made materials, determine their true date and that would be that. End of the Oak Island..whatever you wanna call it.

They didn't do it for the money. Both are well off and 1 of them is VERY well off. Regulations keep them and you from doing what they'd/you would really like to do on the island. If you could just clear cut and excavate everywhere, that is the only way to completely answer everyones questions/theory. Other then that, I like the idea of pumping the holes they have now dry ( if possible ) and going down in them to see what you see. Freeze the ground and do some digging from there. Again if that is possible..

Yup. It's not that a treasure isn't most certainly there. It's that govt. regulations that any construction project must follow (for big quarry operations, etc...) prohibit them from employing grander more extensive wider and deeper efforts.

Kind of reminds me of the 2 clowns shown on the news a few years ago. Who believed they'd found the location of a CW era treasure, that was buried in the grave of a CW soldier located in historical memorial cemetery. (Doesn't this sound like the plot of a Clint Eastwood Spaghetti western movie ? ). They sought govt. permission (the state or national park in which this CW memorial marker park thing was located) to dig up the treasure. Naturally, the govt. said "no".

The funny thing was, the guys being interviewed about their being "thwarted" by this govt. intrusion, simply became ALL THE MORE CONVINCED a treasure was there. I guess in their mind's eyes, the govt. meddling to keep the treasure from being found, or that the govt. was going to be sinister now and "go get it on their own in secret", or something.

Nevermind that NO ONE can ever get permission to go "treasure hunt" in national parks and the like. Heck, even an md'r (digging little teensy holes for singular coins) will be told "no". So it's not a conspiracy, or hush job, or any type of acknowledgement that anything's even there.

I want season 2

 

[Roadhse2]

Robot....

Funny...and the most realistic thing you've said yet...

 

[hooch]

The Vagina brothers need to douche the island and retreat

 

[Charlie P. (NY)]

Nice.

 

[Dave Rishar]

Promiscuous Entertainment

Have the local womenfolk been telling stories about me again? That was a long time ago. It no longer counts.

Well played, sir.

 

[Dave Rishar]

And now my stomach hurts from laughter. You guys are killing it in this thread.

 

[gjb]

... If you had control of things as the Lagina brothers currently do, how would you go about solving this mystery? I am most interested in specifics about your plan of action. Assuming you had lots of time to spend and you had 100k? What about 500k or 1 million or more to devote to the project? Thank you for your opinions?

I’d do what I’ve been unable to achieve in over 30 years - I’d test out my reconstructed ground plan by mapping it out on the ground and seeing if it reveals any additional ground features or survey markers where I think there might be some. I’d also compare my plan with Fred Nolan’s survey plans and maps.

My reconstruction incorporates a triangular geometrical swamp. I’d check this out (without removing any stakes). I’d also check the distance between Cone C of Nolan’s Cross and the drilled rock just offshore at Joudrey’s Cove to see if the distance and bearing matches what is on my plan. I’d investigate the three piles of stones at the edge of Nolan’s land (the Pirate Stones Triangle.)

At some stage, I’d get in touch with anybody with a proposal that was rejected unseen. or unchecked, by Dan Blankenship, David Tobias, Fred Nolan or Rick and Marty. I’d then see if anything could be done to check out the most promising hypotheses.

I’d try to overcome my dislike of theories that declare who was responsible without knowing what was buried Furthermore, I’d avoid the Money Pit and Borehole 10X like the plague. However, I’d spend some money trying to identify whether the water from the fan drains at Smith’s Cove fed into a Sump Hole.

At some point, I would try to get permission to probe for buried stones at key points, and expose them if at all possible. There are also sixteen truly key points at which I’d like to remove the turf to determine if there are signs of previous excavations or post pipes.

I’d try to avoid Dan Blankenship, but Dave’s honesty and enthusiasm appeal to me, so I’d try to get him on my team, which would call upon surveyors and archaeologists for help.

Without additional funding, I imagine my money would soon run out, but I’d be fully open and publish my findings.

Where did they find that metal detector 'expert'? Is he there for comedy relief only? Embarrassing to say the least.

 

[n2mini]

Everybody wants to give Gary a hard time, but he makes a living doing what he loves, Metal Detecting, giving lessons, and writing books on metal detecting. I'd imagine he does well for himself and being on shows like this helps to pay for his searching adventures.. I'm sure most people on here would like to do what he does compared to their typical 9-5 job... Got to keep in mind, it is a TV Show and parts of it are scripted to make itinteresting to viewers.. Price you have to pay to not wake up and go to that typical job each day...

 

[augoldminer]

I would stay away from the swamp.

I believe the swamp was used as a crud graving dock for ether taking apart a ship for wood timbers to shore up the money pit and other tunnels on the island.

Or for repairing ships by the original people hiding treasure on the island.

 

[Stretch Da Truth]

Q: Oak Island, what would you do?

A: Bury fake Templar artifacts all over the island, pretend to find a hidden vault, start a TV show and bilk people out of $$$!

Wait, its already been/being done.

 

[etex]

I can't wait for the fake confederate relics on the new show.

 

[Stretch Da Truth]

I can't wait for the fake confederate relics on the new show.

Yea, the preview looks REAL interesting! I wanna waste more time with a Lagina.
Looks like Marty is only there as an investor? Wake me when they find it...zzz...zzz...zzz

 

[etex]

A civil war artillery short sword looks just like a roman sword, they can recycle the fake roman sword and save money

 

[ibjeepn]

Get more metal detectors... how stupid. One expert that only digs what he thinks is good. Anything could be a lead.. Expert. lol
