Or let me boggle your minds even more....Could it be the body of Jesus??? Or maybe it is an alien artifact just not the Covenant! Maybe aliens told humans to hide this artifact?
Obviously there's something buried at the bottom. Has anyone possibly thought maybe a highly intelligent people were hiding something that couldn't be explained in there time? Could it have been the Atlanteans?
Why would aliens bury Shakespeare's original manuscripts? His plays made me want to stab my eyes out in high school and in my opinion, is a waste of paper..
most likely the flooding is a natural thing. probably someone digging for gold or treasure or some other valuable hit the water table and abandoned the effort. the whole money pit misadventure owes its existance to the mistaken assumption that there is something valuable down there, when in fact, there isnt.
@SGDeGalvez That all sounds good, up until you make the claim that it is a "fact" that there is nothing down there. The fact is, no one knows if there is anything down there. One extreme claim to counter another does not render either one untrue.. or true.
@whanethewhip ahhh, but it is a fact, isn't it? Sufficient efforts have been made to recover any valuables that are buried there. The treasure has either already been recovered or there was never any treasure there to begin with. at some point we have to accept one of these solutions as 'fact'. the whole problem begins with accepting as 'fact' the argument that there is treasure buried there despite absolutley no evidence to support it.
@SGDeGalvez Nope, still not a fact. The problem is that you are dealing with absolutes in a world of probabilities. There is "probably" nothing down there, but you take a leap when you make the "claim" that nothing is down there. In order to prove your claim, you would have to show evidence of depths reached that surpass previous attempts when the pit was flooded and halted progress. Since no further progress has been made, the correct fact is: we do not know what's down there, or what's not.
@whanethewhip there is a giant ball of chocolate at the center of the earth. this statement is assumed false until proven otherwise. it is a fact, that there is no giant ball of chocolate at the center of the earth, not because someone has a sample of the center of the earth, but by a reasonable doubt. The treasure theory has been proven false, by a reasonable doubt. not beyond ANY doubt, but a reasonable doubt.
@SGDeGalvez Wrong analogy. First of all, you've gone from "nothing" to "something specific". Secondly, the exaggeration of comparing the distance to the center of the Earth (and conditions) is contrasted with the Oak pit. You are right in assuming the default position, but wrong in ignoring all the clues that suggest that there was something at the bottom of a pit. Also, you've changed your claim from "nothing is down there" to "there is no treasure there". Who decides what is "reasonable"?
@whanethewhip ok, maybe i am leaping to conclusions. but, take a look at 2:47 and give me a scenario where 3 kids see some green lights in the woods and this is what they found. my friend, this is a major construction project for todays tech. unless you are suggestion an alien race would do this, but couldnt find a better hiding place for thier treasure, like the moon. i mean, just sit back and think about it for a while. its an urban legend gone awry, IMHO.
@ronhamilton676 actually they poured red dye in the hole and it came out in 3 places, so they conjured up this idea, to splain it. let me see, if there were natural under ground water ways, which is quite possible, even in a desert, much more a tiny island surrounded by ocean, the red dye just might find its way to the source with the tide, but heck, get your shovel and go have a crack at it, lemme know.
@ronhamilton676 and we cant block them off? if they are 'well documented' (and man made) it should be a breeze to pour some expanding foam into the opening and choke off the water. ya see, now we need a story explaining why we cant block off the water pipes in the 21st century and they could dig them in the 17th century.
@SGDeGalvez I can't give you any crazy theories because I don't have them. My thoughts teeter along the idea that there may have once been a plan in place to build a levy along with a drain for flood waters and we see what was left from that incomplete task. It's like I said before, there is "probably" nothing down there, but I won't rule it out completely despite my opinions, at least not until someone can get beyond that metal plate. But that's just my personal view, with limitations.
@SGDeGalvez "Sufficient efforts"? Whether or not something is a fact is based on collected data, not "effort". From what I understand there is an iron plate down there and no record of anyone going beyond it. Do you regard the iron plate as nothing?
I think someone (or something?) set this thing up as a joke. I can just see those aliens, hovering above, laughing and saying to each other "Look at those stupid humans digging down through that shaft we made that night when we were drunk on Romulan ale! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Cpowers1990 It's not a problem digging. It's a groundwater hydrology problem. Sure you can dig that deep, but can you dig that deep underwater? The only way they could have done it would have been to use an elaborate pumping and plumbing system to pump out the water. The argument is that they then used that water and plumbing system to create an elaborate vault... Regardless of who built it, it was far far more advanced that anything they should have been able to do. Your argument is invalid.
well then it must have been AAALIENS ! come on, arc feels like a bit of a stretch loosely based on legends, 4 people died in the hole from carbon monoxide off the machines that made them pass out, fall in the pit and drown, it's only my opinion but i don't think the arc is down there, not with that kind of "evidence" they provide, treasure, hell yes i think that's what is down there but check out this article, it's a little less far fetched zazenlife. com/2011/12/22/the-oak-island-treasure-pit/
@Atheieye Why are you asking me to provide proof for claims that I never made? Stop being a troll, actually read what people say and respond to that, not just what you wished they had said so that you have excuse to be an ass.
@whanethewhip It annoys me. And they didn't present it as just an unlikely theory, they went on about the ark and aliens for 15 minutes, even though for all we know the easter bunny is on the bottom of that shaft.
And if you read the comments, people actually believes this shit, which is primarily why I'm annoyed.
@CertifiedBad4ss And the video is under 10 min so they could not have gone on about the ark for 15 minutes. Furthermore, how LONG someone talks about something does not matter. They clearly present this as a possibility.... and guess what, it *IS* a possibility. It's not probable, but it is possible. Listen to what is said... they never make a claim, they ask questions and present possibilities, simple as that.
@CertifiedBad4ss First mention of the Ark was at 4:17 and leading up to that it was described as "perhaps the most audacious theory". Correct me if I'm wrong, but the (H) channel seems to agree with you, even if the interviewed guests do not. The Ark is then a central focus up to the end. Total time discussed: roughly 5 minutes. Also, I think it's okay if people believe it, it should not make you angry. Maybe something else is making you angry.
my idea of whats in there is some form of treasure that was left by the templars because i think the templars with the norse vikings were on north america this theory is supported by the kensington rune stone found in 1898 with insriptions similar to a land claim that was dated 1326 and was written in templar code now whether the treasure is some sacred object is a matter of opinion i think theres probably gold at the bottom of the pit but the question can be raised why so much for protection
My only problem with these history channel shows, is that they draw conclusions with no proof, at all. They have literally NO idea what, if anything, is down there, yet they throw around theories like its facts.
coconut fibers was ropes, im still thinking pple. also the clay way below was used to keep the side of the shaft dry after the water was let out.am i helping here pple,
actually i would like to go there and see for my self, ok message is at 98ft forty feet below two million pounds are buried nah do some math ppple.think now
From the first time I heard about the money pit, it fascinating. The speculation and possibilities of it are mind boggling. I would definitely love to finally know what is in the pit because it really could be anything. However, this pit could really change the world - what if there is an alien artifact or the ark of the covenant? That seems radical but is indeed possible.
I think that Oak Island exhibited an unprecedented technology which denotes an extraterrestrial presence. For this reason, I don't believe it to contain any treasure as with this know-how, they could've mined the earth then left with everything, if they were so inclined. The real question is: what else are they capable of? The universe is billions of years old. Think about the progress we've made in just 100 yrs. Now imagine if there were people who had a 10 million year head start. Whoa!
@Dashiar maybe smarter than us? no deffinatley. There are numerous ancient structures around the globe that exhibit a level of architecture we could not replicate today. Some of these structures show carvings that could only have been made with a diamond tipped drill. many of the structures have PERFECTLY straight edges and have PERFECT symmetry. If human beings created these thousands of years ago and we cannot remake them, they were absolutley smarter then us
Never knew History Channel is so full of nonsense.
Not only is the idea of some pirate treasure at the bottom of some impossible to reach pit ridiculous in itself, but that the Arc of the Covenant ended up there is just ludicrous.
What's next? Genghis Khan's treasure is hidden there too?
If the worlds best engineers worked on this for a good few months I'm sure we could reach the bottom, Its a bit ridiculous to think with today's technology we cant make it to the bottom.
@Tkdbigsteven Dude not this one i live in nova scotia and this one is a lie theres no rumor or anything related to those 3 green lights theres been documentarys about it already and non ever said it.
Theres also the tab with symbols again they lied to you its already been decoded twice and what it says is forty feet below two million pounds burried.
They also found lots of tunnel networds and the oak stuff was actually a water trigger.
ok ill solve your digging problem no more deaths, first you put the dye in it flows out three sides mark the sides build small dam around the three exits drain the water out then dig. see easy and if the ark is there you should leave it there,
My theory Time travelers wanting to be remembered. They landed at Oak Island because some time in the future Canada takes over the world to spread their governmental beliefs and medical coverage. Oak Island becomes a hot spot for tourism and scientific studies.
I am currently watching this on tv and wanted to know who owns this "Privately Owned Property"? Also did they stop searching because they got greedy and started digging from an angle causing the pit to flood causing what ever was down there to be lost/destroyed???? Why did they stop going further down the money pit?
Although I find this mystery genuinely fascinating, Giorgio Tsoukalos is a TOOL. The 40 year wandering of the Israelites has been disproven by Israeli and other archaeologists. How uninformed can one be, and still have a shot in the History Channel?
theres no ark,,, i believe this was a underground levi to hold the water back as ships in the night approched. thats why there was a dam.. once the tide level came up over the dam, it went down in the long shafts, and exited out on side of island back into the water, it told the islanders at the tree the water level was high, and it also gave them notice to ships passing by at night in dark
@roseforvendetta That's the best explanation I've heard yet. How dare you spoil all the fun we're having speculating about aliens! No really though, your explanation holds alot of water. ;)
@whanethewhip aw thank you but if ur looking for treasure my freind i have another theory, around the island shore to low for ship to dock. so mr whanethewhip... they had to drop the goods off so they would slide down the shafts, but only slide with water.. water carried the goods to the main feed which thats where the water filled up pushing the goods up futher in the main shaft up to the ground level under the tree but the one u touched( the chest) mabe got stuck,
@whanethewhip That doesn't make any sense. The dams were built by the treasure hunters to try to keep the water from entering the tunnels that fed into the shaft.
@whanethewhip - No. See there were lots of expeditions by professional construction companies to try to get to the bottom of the pit. There is no mystery as to who built the dam. The only mystery is: What's at the bottom and who put it there.
@omenroc1 Read the top most comment by roseforvendetta. The suggestion made there was that there was a dam to aid ships BEFORE treasure hunters discovered the shafts years later. We're not talking about the dams built later by the treasure hunters.
@whanethewhip - I'll look into it, but I have read a lot on the topic. I don't think that makes sense, because the island was not inhabited, so why would anyone need to construct anything to aide ships? They wouldn't.
@roseforvendetta it still does not explain how the hell human beings can drill something that friggin humongous IN the island UNDER water 3 TIMES, INCLUDING the main hole???? THERES NO FRIGGIN WAY!!! and the oak trees!!! dude before the year 1775!!??? really???
@LobsterPotsticker im sure back then the island wasnt that small. and it wasnt uncommon to build levis. man was very knowledge in enginerring. the romans proved that for us. under ground serwer systems and water systems.
True, but the Romans didn't build sewer systems in the middle of nowhere. They focused on huge cities, like Rome. Also after Rome fell, the idea of sewer system was FORGOTTEN for 1500 years until they built the London sewer system in the 1800's.
Sorry, but what you are saying makes absolutely no sense.
@roseforvendetta if that was true than the scientists would have said so, and how do you explain the coconut mat and tablet. Seriously, noone would go through the trouble of doing such thing. Would you? exactly
Sounds plausible but how do you explain the many layers of coconut fibers being layed on to the different platforms that theyve dug up so far? not saying its alien based at all but definately pointless to have the fibers in there if its basically just a drain
@roseforvendetta That doesn't make any sense. The dams were built by the treasure hunters to try to keep the water from entering the tunnels that fed into the shaft.
@roseforvendetta Lets not forget about the Coptic Message in the stone at 98ft. "forty feet below two million pounds are buried" If it were a dam.. there would be record of it being built. Government or non government. No records, means secrets, secrets could mean value. But the thing that bothers me is... it wasn't hidden very well.
@ubertuberx5 i agree it wasnt hidden wel if it was any treasure.. mabe the records are on the nearest main land. but it goes to far back for that i think. mabe not, it being a island pple going coming something was recorded not keep there,i remeber looking up something couldnt find it but i found it through old fire station maps, cause a city town had to be recorded through very old fire stations.the fire chiefs i dont know about that time period but they used to go around the town
@roseforvendetta good thinking mate but 1st: Why would they add the layers of oak and coconut fibers? 2nd: according to the 3d model, I don't think the shafts were meant to evacuate water, but to, in fact to flood the pit.
theirs another money pit not to many people know about outside of Peggys cove nova scotia on an inland sorry cant give the name my family has owned the island for over 200 years and it is suspected captain kid has berried Treasure there but the tide always comes in and floods the shaft just like oak island im not sure if researchers know of this site but i cant give the name of the island people have triend to get in to but failed message me for more info if u would like
@xcoldmurderx123 I wish there was a rule on the internet that prevented dumb fucks like you from posting anything on the web unless they had proof and could cite that proof. "I know a secret ... but I can't tell you..." SHUTUP! And learn how to fucking spell and use a fucking period or two so your post does not run on.
One thing i can be sure of... no one work so hard (at least back in those times) to hide something and protect it if its not important... you should count on it!
When Moses escaped from Egypt with the Israelites he took the long way on the coast of present day Saudi Arabia on the way Moses went up the mountain (present day mount sainai) it is said that god gave him the ten commandments there and that it was so powerful that if you looked at it you would die instantly so they had to carry it under a blanket, it also protected them from enemies on the way. There was a theory that somehow it was destroyed, but the conspirators said how could you destroy so
with the proper funding, the water can be pumped out, the platforms and stone slabs can be removed, the shafts can be plugged and whatever lies below can be revealed. Or if all else fails, we can nuke the fuck out of that place, nobody likes canadians anyways:) lol jk
@MrReichstetter If America dared to nuke Canada, all the global powers of the World would unite and pummel America into surrender, or oblivion. Just FYI, it wouldn't turn out so well.

From the first time I heard about the money pit, it fascinating. The speculation and possibilities of it are mind boggling. I would definitely love to finally know what is in the pit because it really could be anything. However, this pit could really change the world - what if there is an alien artifact or the ark of the covenant? That seems radical but is indeed possible.

I think that Oak Island exhibited an unprecedented technology which denotes an extraterrestrial presence. For this reason, I don't believe it to contain any treasure as with this know-how, they could've mined the earth then left with everything, if they were so inclined. The real question is: what else are they capable of? The universe is billions of years old. Think about the progress we've made in just 100 yrs. Now imagine if there were people who had a 10 million year head start. Whoa!

@Dashiar maybe smarter than us? no deffinatley. There are numerous ancient structures around the globe that exhibit a level of architecture we could not replicate today. Some of these structures show carvings that could only have been made with a diamond tipped drill. many of the structures have PERFECTLY straight edges and have PERFECT symmetry. If human beings created these thousands of years ago and we cannot remake them, they were absolutley smarter then us

They also found lots of tunnel networds and the oak stuff was actually a water trigger.

ok ill solve your digging problem no more deaths, first you put the dye in it flows out three sides mark the sides build small dam around the three exits drain the water out then dig. see easy and if the ark is there you should leave it there,

I am currently watching this on tv and wanted to know who owns this "Privately Owned Property"? Also did they stop searching because they got greedy and started digging from an angle causing the pit to flood causing what ever was down there to be lost/destroyed???? Why did they stop going further down the money pit?

roseforvendetta 5 months ago
theres no ark,,, i believe this was a underground levi to hold the water back as ships in the night approched. thats why there was a dam.. once the tide level came up over the dam, it went down in the long shafts, and exited out on side of island back into the water, it told the islanders at the tree the water level was high, and it also gave them notice to ships passing by at night in dark

@roseforvendetta That's the best explanation I've heard yet. How dare you spoil all the fun we're having speculating about aliens! No really though, your explanation holds alot of water. ;)
whanethewhip 5 months ago 4
@whanethewhip aw thank you but if ur looking for treasure my freind i have another theory, around the island shore to low for ship to dock. so mr whanethewhip... they had to drop the goods off so they would slide down the shafts, but only slide with water.. water carried the goods to the main feed which thats where the water filled up pushing the goods up futher in the main shaft up to the ground level under the tree but the one u touched( the chest) mabe got stuck,

@whanethewhip Now I'm not saying it was aliens. But it was aliens.

@whanethewhip That doesn't make any sense. The dams were built by the treasure hunters to try to keep the water from entering the tunnels that fed into the shaft.
omenroc1 3 months ago
@omenroc1 Or... The dams were built to prevent low level flooding and a drainage system was installed for those times when flooding was overwhelming.
whanethewhip 3 months ago
@whanethewhip - No. See there were lots of expeditions by professional construction companies to try to get to the bottom of the pit. There is no mystery as to who built the dam. The only mystery is: What's at the bottom and who put it there.
omenroc1 3 months ago
@omenroc1 Read the top most comment by roseforvendetta. The suggestion made there was that there was a dam to aid ships BEFORE treasure hunters discovered the shafts years later. We're not talking about the dams built later by the treasure hunters.
whanethewhip 3 months ago
@whanethewhip - I'll look into it, but I have read a lot on the topic. I don't think that makes sense, because the island was not inhabited, so why would anyone need to construct anything to aide ships? They wouldn't.

@LobsterPotsticker im sure back then the island wasnt that small. and it wasnt uncommon to build levis. man was very knowledge in enginerring. the romans proved that for us. under ground serwer systems and water systems.

@roseforvendetta nothing was ever that deep though
and there couldn't have been a perfect uncovered circular hole if that many levels had been added to it.
would have been buried by the additional layers
LobsterPotsticker 3 months ago
@roseforvendetta
True, but the Romans didn't build sewer systems in the middle of nowhere. They focused on huge cities, like Rome. Also after Rome fell, the idea of sewer system was FORGOTTEN for 1500 years until they built the London sewer system in the 1800's.
Sorry, but what you are saying makes absolutely no sense.

@roseforvendetta Lets not forget about the Coptic Message in the stone at 98ft. "forty feet below two million pounds are buried" If it were a dam.. there would be record of it being built. Government or non government. No records, means secrets, secrets could mean value. But the thing that bothers me is... it wasn't hidden very well.

@ubertuberx5 i agree it wasnt hidden wel if it was any treasure.. mabe the records are on the nearest main land. but it goes to far back for that i think. mabe not, it being a island pple going coming something was recorded not keep there,i remeber looking up something couldnt find it but i found it through old fire station maps, cause a city town had to be recorded through very old fire stations.the fire chiefs i dont know about that time period but they used to go around the town
roseforvendetta 2 months ago
@roseforvendetta good thinking mate but 1st: Why would they add the layers of oak and coconut fibers? 2nd: according to the 3d model, I don't think the shafts were meant to evacuate water, but to, in fact to flood the pit.

When Moses escaped from Egypt with the Israelites he took the long way on the coast of present day Saudi Arabia on the way Moses went up the mountain (present day mount sainai) it is said that god gave him the ten commandments there and that it was so powerful that if you looked at it you would die instantly so they had to carry it under a blanket, it also protected them from enemies on the way. There was a theory that somehow it was destroyed, but the conspirators said how could you destroy so
