It's about the only show my dad watches religiously. Hes followed it since he wqs a boy. So I got the family tickets to go to Halifax to visit the island. I don't watch the show, but my dad said they found a ruby last week. Is there any way there is something left on that island? I think whatever was there is long gone.

Sounds like a fun way to kill an afternoon regardless.

That is the most annoying show on television. So dramatic when they find something as stupid as a nail. But if there’s treasure buried that deep as they keep saying, how In the hell would modern technology not be able to reach it. Your telling me that in the 1600s they could have built elaborate flood tunnels and all 180 ft below and we couldn’t get to it today? My arse. Damn that show lol

Assuming someone actually went to the trouble of building Goonies level infrastructure to protect a treasure does it make any sense that they just left it there?

I figured the software engineer brother with hundreds of millions of dollars and the television show would be enough to fund the retarded exploration. Now they have to sell tickets to the common folk to make a dime? Frick that shite.

Thanks for the Spoiler Alert, moran!

I love the way that show finds a way to tie any minor find or marking in a rock to the Knights Templar, Julius Caesar, or the Virgin Mary. And props to the narrator. If they find something, the narrator chimes in “A Lincoln cent? Could this cent have been dropped by someone while they buried the Ark of the Covenant?”

I lost interest in the show years ago....but the island, etc. is surely interesting.

damn nice thing you did for your dad...I hope you and your family have a trip that you will all remember for the rest of your lives.
