America Unearthed (2012–…): Season 1, Episode 13 - Hunt for the Holy Grail - full transcript

- THE HISTORY THAT
WE WERE ALL TAUGHT GROWING UP

IS WRONG.

MY NAME IS SCOTT WOLTER,

AND I'M A FORENSIC GEOLOGIST.

THERE'S A HIDDEN HISTORY
IN THIS COUNTRY

THAT NOBODY KNOWS ABOUT.

THERE ARE PYRAMIDS HERE...

CHAMBERS, TOMBS, INSCRIPTIONS.

THEY'RE ALL OVER THIS COUNTRY.

WE'RE GOING TO INVESTIGATE
THESE ARTIFACTS AND SITES,

AND WE'RE GOING TO GET
TO THE TRUTH.



SOMETIMES HISTORY

ISN'T WHAT WE'VE BEEN TOLD.

AMERICA UNEARTHED - SEASON 1
EP - 13 - Hunt for the Holy Grail

"DEAR SCOTT,
MY NAME IS DEN PARADA.

"I AM A PROFESSIONAL
TREASURE HUNTER.

"I'VE GOT A HOT LEAD
ON A LOCATION

"WHERE I THINK
TEMPLAR TREASURE IS BURIED.

"IT'S IN NOVA SCOTIA,

"AND I'M WRITING TO SEE

"IF YOU'D LIKE TO COME ALONG
ON MY ADVENTURE.

"I'VE ATTACHED SOME PHOTOS
FROM HOBSON ISLAND,

"A PLACE THAT
FIGURES INTO THE MYSTERY.

"I KNOW YOU'RE A GEOLOGIST,

"AND I BELIEVE
STRANGE SYMBOLS ON ROCKS THERE



"COULD POINT THE WAY
TO THE TEMPLAR TREASURE

"BROUGHT TO NORTH AMERICA
BY PRINCE HENRY SINCLAIR.

I HOPE YOU CAN MAKE IT."

- HELLO?

- HEY, STEVE. SCOTT WOLTER.

- BEEN A WHILE.
WHAT ARE YOU UP TO?

- I'VE FOUND SOMEBODY WHO THINKS

THEY'VE FOUND
YOUR ANCESTOR'S TREASURE.

I THINK THIS GUY
IS A REAL TREASURE HUNTER.

YOU WANT TO GO CHECK IT OUT
WITH ME?

- IN THAT CASE, DEFINITELY.

WHERE IS IT THIS TIME?

- THE USUAL PLACE... NOVA SCOTIA.

TELL YOU WHAT... PACK YOUR BAGS,

AND I'LL MEET YOU IN HALIFAX.

- YOU GOT IT.
I'LL SEE YOU SOON, BROTHER.

- THE GUY WHO CONTACTED ME
IS A TREASURE HUNTER,

AND HE BELIEVES
TREASURE OF THE KNIGHTS TEMPLAR

IS BURIED IN NOVA SCOTIA.

THERE'S GOOD REASON FOR THAT.

LEGEND SAYS A SCOTTISH PRINCE
NAMED HENRY SINCLAIR,

WHO HAD STRONG TIES
TO THE TEMPLARS,

BROUGHT IT HERE IN 1398.

THE KNIGHTS TEMPLAR ORDER

WAS CREATED
BY THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH

TO PROTECT ITS TREASURES
AND THE HOLY LAND

DURING THE CRUSADES.

THE HOLY GRAIL

IS RUMORED TO BE
ONE OF THE RELICS

THE TEMPLARS WERE KEEPING SAFE.

MOST BELIEVE
THE GRAIL IS THE CUP

JESUS DRANK FROM
AT THE LAST SUPPER,

BUT I THINK THE GRAIL

IS JUST PART
OF A MUCH LARGER TREASURE.

AND SUPPOSEDLY,
PRINCE HENRY WAS THE LAST ONE

TO HAVE HIS HANDS ON IT,

SO IF HE DID COME HERE,

IT'S AS GOOD OF A PLACE AS ANY
TO LOOK.

HEY, DENNY.

- HEY, GOOD TO MEET YOU, SCOTT.

- WELL, I'M ANXIOUS
TO GO TREASURE HUNTING.

HOW DID YOU GET INTO
THIS TREASURE HUNTING BUSINESS,

AND ULTIMATELY,
WHAT LED YOU UP HERE?

- IN OUR COMPANY, WE COVER
EVERYTHING FROM CIVIL WAR...

WE CAN GO BACK TO PIRATES.

AND THEN I FIGURED,
"WELL, LET'S PICK UP

"ON THE TEMPLAR TREASURE

AND SEE WHERE WE CAN GO
FROM THERE."

- I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT

WE'RE ON THE SAME PAGE HERE

ABOUT THIS WHOLE LEGEND
OF PRINCE HENRY SINCLAIR.

PRINCE HENRY WAS LIKELY
A MEMBER OF THE KNIGHTS TEMPLAR.

THIS WAS A MONASTIC ORDER
OF KNIGHTS

THAT WERE KICKED OUT
OF THE CHURCH

FOR BEING TOO POWERFUL.

THE QUESTION HAS ALWAYS BEEN:

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THEM?

I THINK THEY CAME OVER
TO NORTH AMERICA.

AND THEY BROUGHT
WHATEVER TREASURE THEY FOUND

UNDER THE TEMPLE MOUNT,

WHETHER IT WAS SCROLLS,
TECHNOLOGY, GOLD,

THE HOLY BLOODLINE
OF JESUS AND MARY.

MAYBE IT WAS A GOLD CUP.

WHATEVER IT WAS, I THINK
MOST PEOPLE JUST SUM IT UP

BY SAYING "THE HOLY GRAIL."

YOU THINK THE HOLY GRAIL'S HERE?

- UH, SOMETHING'S HERE.

THERE'S OVER 300 ISLANDS
IN NOVA SCOTIA,

BUT THERE'S THREE IMPORTANT
PLACES I WANT TO SHOW YOU.

OAK ISLAND HERE

WAS ONLY A TEMPORARY LOCATION
FOR THE TREASURE.

- WELL, OAK ISLAND
IS A FASCINATING STORY,

AND I'VE ACTUALLY BEEN
TO OAK ISLAND

AND INVESTIGATED THIS
WHOLE MYSTERY OF THE MONEY PIT.

MANY PEOPLE
OVER THE LAST ALMOST 300 YEARS

HAVE INVESTED AN AWFUL LOT
OF MONEY IN THAT HOLE,

INCLUDING PEOPLE LIKE
ERROL FLYNN, F.D.R.,

EVEN JOHN WAYNE,

AND THEY DUG DOWN
AS FAR AS 90 FEET AND BEYOND,

BUT NOTHING WAS EVER FOUND.

YOU THINK
THERE WAS A TREASURE THERE

BUT IT'S NOT THERE ANYMORE.

- CORRECT. CORRECT, YEAH.

- OKAY, I HAPPEN TO AGREE
WITH YOU.

I THINK THERE WAS
SOMETHING THERE AT ONE TIME,

AND IT WAS MOVED SOMEWHERE ELSE,

SO MAYBE... MAYBE YOU KNOW, EH?

- I BELIEVE PRINCE HENRY

USED THE HOBSON ISLAND
AS A STAGING GROUND.

AND HERE IS NEW ROSS. - OKAY.

- 'CAUSE THAT'S WHERE I BELIEVE
IT ENDED UP AT.

- SO WHAT'S THE PLAN TODAY?

- THERE ARE SOME CLUES

I WANT TO SHOW YOU
ON HOBSON ISLAND.

WE HAVE A ROCK
WITH A "V" CARVING ON IT,

AND THEN WE HAVE

A LAYOUT OF STONES
ON THE SHORELINE.

- I HOPE YOU DON'T MIND,

BUT I INVITED MY GOOD FRIEND
STEVE ST. CLAIR...

WHO IS A DESCENDANT
OF PRINCE HENRY SINCLAIR...

TO JOIN US.

- SOUNDS GOOD TO ME.

- SO WE SHOULD GET ROLLING, EH?

- YES, SHOULD BE
GETTIN' THERE FAST.

- SO THAT BIG BAD BOY OVER THERE

IS THE ONE YOU THINK
HAS A "V" CARVING ON IT, RIGHT?

- YEAH.
PATRICK HERE HAS SEEN IT.

- THERE WAS A LOT OF MOSS
AND EVERYTHING

AND STUFF THAT WE CLEARED AWAY,

JUST TO ACTUALLY SEE
THE CARVING.

- YOU KNOW, ANOTHER THING I LIKE
ABOUT THIS "V" CARVING...

IF IT'S HERE...

THAT'S THE UPPER PART
OF THE HOOKED "X."

THIS MYSTERIOUS
HOOKED "X" SYMBOL

IS CONNECTED
TO THE KNIGHTS TEMPLAR.

MAYBE THERE'S MORE TO IT,

OR MAYBE THAT'S JUST
PART OF A CLUE

THAT'S TELLING US SOMETHING.

- JUST BE CAREFUL
OF YOUR STEP, GUYS.

- YEP.

- WELL, THAT LOOKS LIKE
A BIG PIECE OF GRANITE,

SO IF THERE'S SOMETHING
CARVED INTO IT,

IT'LL HANG AROUND
FOR A LONG TIME.

- IF YOU COME AROUND HERE,

YOU CAN ACTUALLY SEE THE "V"
UP HERE.

- OH, WOW.
- OH, IT IS A "V."

- IT IS A "V."

- WOW.

- AND IT'S VERY DISTINCTIVE.

- I'M TRYING TO LOOK AND SEE
IF IT'S NATURAL.

I SUPPOSE IT'S POSSIBLE,

BUT, BOY, THAT SURE
IS SYMMETRIC AND NICE.

IT ALMOST LOOKS LIKE
IT HAS A LITTLE HOOK ON IT HERE,

DOESN'T IT?

- YES. JUST LIKE THE HOOKED "X."

- YEAH, AND THE THING IS,
I LOOKED AT IT...

IT DID... IT LOOKED LIKE
THERE WAS TOOL MARKS.

- WELL, IT'S WEATHERED TOO.

IF WE TAKE THIS
AS A MAN-MADE SYMBOL,

THERE'S MORE GOING ON HERE.

IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE

THAT MAYBE TIES INTO
THIS WHOLE THING?

- OH, YEAH, WE FOUND
A TREASURE MAP MADE OF STONE.

- A TREASURE MAP?
- YES.

- HERE? ON THIS ISLAND?

- YES.

- WELL, YOU GOT TO SHOW IT
TO ME.

- FOR OVER A CENTURY,
THERE'S BEEN A RUMOR

THAT A SCOTTISH PRINCE
NAMED HENRY SINCLAIR

TOOK THE TEMPLARS'
LEGENDARY TREASURE

TO THE NEW WORLD.

A SYMBOL CALLED THE HOOKED "X"

IS PART OF WHAT MAKES ME THINK
THAT RUMOR IS TRUE.

THE HOOKED "X" IS THE SYMBOL

I THINK THE TEMPLARS USED
TO STAND FOR THE HOLY GRAIL.

I'VE FOUND IT HERE IN AMERICA,

AND I BELIEVE THAT MEANS
THE GRAIL IS HERE TOO...

IF NOT IN THE UNITED STATES,

THEN HERE IN NOVA SCOTIA,

WHERE PRINCE HENRY
ALLEGEDLY BROUGHT IT

FOR SAFEKEEPING.

- WITH 300 ISLANDS OUT HERE,
YOU WOULD NEED A MAP

TO SHOW YOU
WHERE THE TREASURE IS.

- A TREASURE MAP?
- YES.

- WELL, YOU GOT TO SHOW ME THAT.

- OKAY, LET'S GO LOOK.
- ALL RIGHT.

IS THAT THE MAP?

- IT'S A PATTERN OF ROCKS

LAID OUT LIKE THE PATTERN
OF THE ISLANDS.

BELIEVE IT'S A MAP
TO SHOW WHERE THEY WENT TO

WHEN THEY LEFT HOBSON ISLAND.

I THINK PRINCE HENRY SINCLAIR

KEPT THE TREASURE ON OAK ISLAND

UNTIL HE GOT TO KNOW THE NATIVES
BETTER.

THEN HE MOVED THE TREASURE
TO HIGHER GROUND

WHEN HE BUILT THE CASTLE
AT NEW ROSS.

- I'VE HEARD ABOUT THIS CASTLE
BEFORE.

THE LEGEND GOES, PRINCE HENRY
BUILT IT HERE IN NEW ROSS

AND LIVED IN IT UNTIL HE DIED.

SINCE THERE'S NO MONUMENT
TO HIS DEATH

OR EVIDENCE OF HIS BURIAL
IN SCOTLAND,

IT'S POSSIBLE.

I'VE HEARD ALL THAT'S LEFT TODAY
ARE SOME STONES

THAT WERE SUPPOSEDLY PART
OF THE ORIGINAL FOUNDATION.

- YOU SHOULD CHECK OUT
THE CASTLE WALLS.

THERE'S A GUY UP THERE
WHO CAN SHOW YOU AROUND.

- DENNY,
I'VE GOT TO HAND IT TO YOU.

YOU'VE REALLY GOT THIS
WELL THOUGHT OUT.

I'VE GOT TO TALK
TO STEVE ST. CLAIR,

WHO'S A DISTANT RELATIVE
OF PRINCE HENRY.

HE'S GONNA LOVE IT.

WELL, STEVE, THANKS FOR COMING.
I APPRECIATE IT.

- WELL, YOU KNOW, IF YOU GUYS

HAD FOUND SOMETHING UP HERE

AND I WASN'T HERE,
I'D BE PRETTY PISSED.

- I KNOW YOU'RE SKEPTICAL
ABOUT THIS WHOLE THING.

- WE'RE LONG ON THEORIES
AND SHORT ON FACTS.

I HAVE, HOWEVER,
KEPT AN OPEN MIND,

WHICH IS WHY I GOT ON A PLANE

AND FLEW UP HERE
TO MEET WITH YOU.

WELL, I TELL YOU WHAT.

YOU MISSED A GREAT DAY
YESTERDAY.

WE WERE ON HOBSON ISLAND

WITH THIS TREASURE HUNTER
WE'RE GONNA MEET TODAY.

WE DID FIND A LARGE BOULDER

THAT HAD THIS AMAZING
"V" CARVING.

IT'S GOT A LITTLE HOOK
ON ONE SIDE.

IT WAS VERY INTERESTING.

I ASKED DEN, I SAID,

"WHAT DO YOU THINK THIS MEANS?"

AND HE THINKS IT'S PART
OF A TREASURE MAP THAT...

NOT THAT THE TREASURE
IS ON THAT ISLAND,

BUT IT'S A POINTER
OR AN INDICATOR

THAT THE TREASURE
IS IN THIS AREA.

HE SAID THAT WAS A STAGING AREA.

MAYBE HE'S RIGHT. WHO KNOWS?

AND NOW THE NEXT THING
IS TO GO TO THE SITE AT NEW ROSS

WHERE HE THINKS
THE TREASURE IS BURIED.

THERE'S SUPPOSEDLY
RUINS OF AN ANCIENT CASTLE

BUILT BY PRINCE HENRY.

- I'VE HEARD A COUPLE STORIES

REGARDING PRINCE HENRY'S CASTLE
ONCE SITED THERE.

THE FAMILY WAS VERY IMPORTANT
IN SCOTLAND AND ENGLAND,

AND IT'S INTERESTING
THAT PRINCE HENRY

JUST DISAPPEARED
OUT OF THE RECORDS.

THERE WERE NO MONUMENTS
TO HIS DEATH.

SO WHERE WAS HE?

- WELL, TO ME, THAT PROVIDES
REALLY COMPELLING EVIDENCE

THAT HE CAME OVER HERE.

HOW ARE YOU RELATED
TO PRINCE HENRY?

- I'M PROBABLY A DISTANT COUSIN.

IT MIGHT BE VERY DISTANT,
BUT I'M A DISTANT COUSIN.

- ST. CLAIR, SINCLAIR...

WHY THE DIFFERENT SPELLINGS?

- WELL, THE ORIGINAL NAME
WAS ST. CLAIR.

IT CAME FROM FRANCE.

AS THEY MOVED NORTH
INTO SCOTLAND,

THE ST. CLAIRS CHANGED
THE SPELLING TO SINCLAIR.

THIS IS A COMMON THING IN
MEDIEVAL ENGLAND AND SCOTLAND;

SPELLINGS CHANGED ALL THE TIME.

WHAT I FIND
REALLY INTERESTING IS THAT

ALL THESE FAMILIES
THAT SHARE THE SAME BLOOD,

THEY ALL ENDED UP

JUST EAST AND SOUTH
OF ROSSLYN CHAPEL,

WHICH WAS BUILT IN 1446.

EVERYONE KNOWS THAT STORY
FROM THE DA VINCI CODE.

- ROSSLYN CHAPEL WAS BUILT

BY PRINCE HENRY SINCLAIR'S
GRANDSON WILLIAM.

IT'S ALLEGED
IN THE DA VINCI CODE

THAT JESUS HAD A CHILD

AND THE PROOF IS HIDDEN
IN THE CHAPEL.

IT'S A THEORY
I BELIEVE COULD BE TRUE.

THE TEMPLARS' TRADEMARK SYMBOL,
A HOOKED "X,"

IS CARVED ON A COLUMN THERE,

AND MY RESEARCH TELLS ME

IT'S A SYMBOL FOR THE BLOODLINE.

MAYBE IT WAS PUT THERE
AS A TRIBUTE TO PRINCE HENRY,

WHO TOOK PROOF OF THE BLOODLINE

AND THE REST
OF THE TEMPLAR TREASURE

TO NORTH AMERICA.

WE FIND THE HOOKED "X"
AT ROSSLYN CHAPEL.

SO TO ME, IT SEEMS THAT
THIS WHOLE BLOODLINE THREAD

LITERALLY GOES THROUGH ROSSLYN.

AND MAYBE
SOME OF THE OTHER THINGS

THAT WERE HIDDEN
WERE TANGIBLE THINGS,

LIKE GOLD, LIKE SCROLLS,

MAYBE EVEN
THE ARK OF THE COVENANT.

WHO KNOWS?

BUT THOSE HARD OBJECTS
WERE STORED THERE

UNTIL IT WAS SAFE
TO BRING THEM OVER TO THE WEST.

- I'M OPEN-MINDED
ABOUT THE STORY.

I JUST... I'M HERE
TO FIND MORE FACTS.

- WHO KNOWS?
TODAY COULD BE THE DAY.

HEY, BRETT, SCOTT WOLTER.
HOW YOU DOING, MAN?

- NICE TO MEET YOU.

- WE UNDERSTAND THAT
THERE'S A LEGEND

THAT PRINCE HENRY SINCLAIR
CAME TO NEW ROSS

AND BUILT A CASTLE RIGHT HERE.

- THAT'S THE LEGEND.

- WHERE'D ALL...
WHERE'D ALL THE ROCKS GO?

- WELL, THERE'S BEEN
SOME WORK DONE OVER THE YEARS.

THERE'S BEEN SOME LANDSCAPING,

AND MOST OF WHAT WAS HERE
HAS BEEN BURIED NOW.

- THERE'S A ROCK.
- IS THIS THE ONE...

ONLY ROCK YOU GOT LEFT HERE?

- NO, BUT THIS ROCK HERE
WAS STOOD UP,

AND UNDERNEATH THIS ROCK,

THERE WAS, LIKE,
SOME RUBBLE, SOME ASH,

THAT WAS TAKEN AND CARBON-DATED,

AND I THINK IT WAS BACK... 1300s,

THAT THAT CARBON DATE
IT WENT TO.

- ACTUALLY, THAT'S PERFECT,

BECAUSE PRINCE HENRY
REPORTEDLY CAME OVER IN 1398.

SO THAT CARBON DATING
DEFINITELY FITS.

- THIS IS THE BABY ROCK.
- THAT'S THE BABY ROCK?

- THIS IS THE BABY...
- IT'S A LITTLE ONE, OKAY.

- OH, YOU CAN DO BETTER
THAN THAT.

- OH, YEAH, UP IN THE BACK,

THERE'S SOME RATHER LARGE ROCKS

THAT MIGHT BE OF INTEREST
TO YOU.

- HMM, THESE LOOK LIKE
THEY'RE ARRANGED.

- YEAH, THEY DO.

YOU KNOW,
THIS IS INTERESTING, GUYS.

LOOK AT THIS.

THIS STONE FACE HERE IS FLAT,

ALMOST LOOKS LIKE
IT'S BEEN DRESSED.

I MEAN, IT COULD BE NATURAL,

BUT THAT LOOKS DRESSED TO ME.

- WHEN YOU BOUGHT THE PROPERTY,

WAS THIS WHAT WAS HERE,
OR WAS THERE MORE?

- THERE WAS A LOT MORE.

BUT HERE'S WHAT WE HAVE,

WHAT THE BACKYARD
USED TO LOOK LIKE.

- HOLY COW.
- OKAY.

WELL, NOW WE'RE TALKING HERE.

I MEAN, THIS LOOKS LIKE A LAYOUT

FOR SOME TYPE OF STRUCTURE,
POSSIBLY A CASTLE.

BUT THESE WALLS HERE
ARE MASSIVE.

I MEAN, LOOK AT THAT.

THOSE ARE 4 TO 5 FEET
IN THICKNESS.

IT LOOKS EXACTLY
LIKE A FOUNDATION.

LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THESE ROCKS
RIGHT HERE.

THESE THINGS ARE HUGE.

WELL, I TELL YOU WHAT.

THIS GUY HERE
IS JUMPING RIGHT OUT AT ME.

YOU SEE THESE INDENTATIONS
RIGHT HERE...

- OH.

- AND RIGHT HERE?

THAT LOOKS LIKE
MAYBE CHISEL MARKS.

I MEAN, LOOK AT HOW BEAUTIFUL
THAT THING IS.

NICE UNIFORM SHAPE.

- THAT WOULDN'T OCCUR NATURALLY,
RIGHT?

- NO.
- THAT SHAPE OF A STONE?

- NO, THAT WOULD NOT
OCCUR NATURALLY.

I MEAN, THAT WOULD BE
A PERFECT LINTEL STONE.

I MEAN, YOU COULD...
ALL KINDS OF USES

FOR SOMETHING IN A LARGE
STONE STRUCTURE LIKE A CASTLE.

- WOULDN'T THAT BE NICE
OVER THE TOP OF A DOORWAY,

WITH THAT ARCHWAY

DISPERSING THE WEIGHT
DOWN EITHER SIDE?

- IT'D BE PERFECT.

I TELL YOU WHAT, GUYS.

THIS IS REALLY COMPELLING.

THIS MIGHT BE
YOUR RELATIVE'S HOUSE

RIGHT HERE.

- IT COULD HAVE BEEN A CASTLE.

IT'S FASCINATING.

- WHAT IF THE REPORTED TREASURE

THAT PRINCE HENRY
BROUGHT OVER HERE IN 1398

WAS ON YOUR PROPERTY?

WHAT WOULD YOU...
- THAT WOULD BE EXTREMELY NICE.

- IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE
THAT YOU'VE HEARD ABOUT

THAT MIGHT TIE INTO
THIS WHOLE PRINCE HENRY STORY?

- WELL, WHEN YOU
CAME INTO THE AREA,

YOU DROVE THROUGH THE CROSS,

WHICH IS BASICALLY
TWO ROADS THAT INTERSECT

AND LOOK LIKE A CROSS.

- HOW LONG WAS THAT AREA
CALLED THE CROSS?

- LONG TIME,
WAY BEFORE IT WAS A CROSS,

LIKE HUNDREDS OF YEARS
BEFORE THAT.

- WHY WOULD THEY CALL IT THAT?

- LEGEND HAS IT
THAT THERE WAS PEOPLE HERE

THAT WORE A WHITE CLOAK
AND HAD A CROSS ONTO IT.

- WHAT COLOR WAS THE CROSS?

- THEY SAY IT WAS RED.

RED AND WHITE?

THOSE WOULD BE THE WHITE TUNICS

AND THE RED CROSSES
OF THE TEMPLARS.

WELL, I TELL YOU WHAT.

I THINK THE FUN
IS JUST ABOUT TO START.

SHOULD WE GO TALK TO DENNY?

HEY, DENNY.
GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN.

- HEY, SCOTT.
GOOD TO SEE YOU TOO.

- WE'VE BEEN CHASING AFTER
PRINCE HENRY,

WHO WE THINK CAME OVER HERE
IN 1398

AND BROUGHT THE TREASURE.

WHERE DO YOU THINK
HE BROUGHT IT?

- RIGHT HERE.

- RIGHT HERE?
- RIGHT HERE.

WE BELIEVE THAT
THEY BROUGHT THE TREASURE

FROM OAK ISLAND TO THIS LOCATION
FOR SAFETY

AND TO GET AT THE HIGHER GROUND.

- WELL, YOU KNOW,
THAT MAKES TOTAL SENSE.

THEY'VE BEEN DIGGING
AT OAK ISLAND

FOR OVER 100 YEARS;
NO ONE'S FOUND ANYTHING.

SO IT'S KIND OF OBVIOUS
IT'S NOT THERE.

- THERE'S PLENTY OF LEGENDS
AND STORIES

ABOUT PRINCE HENRY
COMING HERE TO NEW ROSS,

BUILDING HIS CASTLE RIGHT HERE.

SO THIS IS A GOOD A PLACE
AS ANY.

WELL, SHALL WE GET STARTED?

- YEAH, I'M FEELING LUCKY.

- READY?
- YEP.

- I'M IN NEW ROSS, NOVA SCOTIA,

SEARCHING FOR THE HOLY GRAIL.

LEGENDS SUGGEST
A PRINCE NAMED HENRY SINCLAIR

BUILT A CASTLE HERE

AND HID THE TREASURE NEARBY
IN 1398.

ONE OF HIS RELATIVES
BELIEVES IT'S POSSIBLE,

BUT HE WANTS PROOF AND SO DO I.

THIS PROPERTY USED TO BELONG
TO A WOMAN NAMED JOAN HOPE.

SHE MADE DIAGRAMS
OF WHAT SHE THOUGHT

WERE THE STONE WALLS
OF PRINCE HENRY'S CASTLE.

I HAVE A FEELING
THE TREASURE HUNTERS

SPOTTED SOMETHING
IN HER DRAWINGS

THAT LED THEM HERE,
TO THIS HOLY WELL.

THIS LOOKS VERY INTERESTING.

WHAT ARE WE LOOKING AT HERE?

- WELL, AFTER GOING THROUGH
JOAN HOPE'S BLUEPRINT...

AND I'VE NOTICED THAT

THE WALLS OF THE CASTLE
WERE 5 FEET THICK

COMPLETELY AROUND THE CASTLE.

BUT WHEN IT GETS CLOSE
TO THE HOLY WELL,

THE CASTLE WALLS TURN IN, AND...

FOR WHAT REASON, I DON'T KNOW.

THE ONLY THING I COME UP WITH...

THAT THERE'S PROBABLY
SOME KIND OF A CASTLE ROOM

OR HIDDEN CHAMBERS
THAT THEY DUG.

- SO THERE'S SOMETHING
VERY SPECIAL AND UNIQUE

ABOUT THIS WELL.

- I BELIEVE THE TREASURE
COULD BE IN ONE OF THESE ROOMS

THAT WE'RE GONNA CHECK OUT
TODAY.

- BEFORE WE CAN
DRILL INTO THE GROUND

TO LOOK FOR THE TREASURE,

I NEED TO KNOW WE HAVE
MORE THAN A HUNCH TO GO ON.

WE NEED SOME HARD DATA.

DEN AND I HAVE COME UP
WITH A PLAN

THAT SHOULD TELL US

WHETHER THERE'S SOMETHING
WORTH DRILLING FOR

NEXT TO THE WELL.

WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN HERE TODAY

THAT'S GONNA HELP US FIND
THE TREASURE?

- WHAT WE'RE GONNA
START OUT IS...

USING A LONG-RANGE LOCATOR.

- A LONG-RANGE LOCATOR
IS A CONTROVERSIAL DEVICE

USED TO FIND GOLD
AND OTHER PRECIOUS METALS

UNDERGROUND.

SCIENTISTS AREN'T CONVINCED
LONG-RANGE LOCATORS WORK,

BUT TREASURE HUNTERS
SWEAR BY THEM.

IF GOLD IS DETECTED,

THE LOCATOR EMITS
A DIRECTIONAL SIGNAL

INDICATING
WHERE IT MIGHT BE FOUND.

BY PLOTTING AND TRIANGULATING
MULTIPLE SIGNAL LINES,

THE OPERATOR CAN PINPOINT A SPOT

WHERE SUSPECTED TREASURE
MIGHT BE BURIED.

- SO IF WE PUT IN
A FREQUENCY OF GOLD,

THE FREQUENCY WILL COME UP
THROUGH THE GROUND.

THE BOX SENDS
THAT FREQUENCY BACK

IN THE FORM OF A LINE.

SO WHAT WE'LL DO
IS TAKE GPS READINGS

AND USE A COMPASS
TO TRIANGULATE THOSE LINES,

SO WE CAN PINPOINT
AN EXACT LOCATION

THAT WE REALLY NEED TO BE AT.

I TURN THE BOX ON,

AND THEN I PUT IN
A FREQUENCY OF 99.9.

- WHICH IS?

- WHICH IS THE FREQUENCY
FOR GOLD IN THIS AREA.

WE'LL LET THIS SIT
FOR 15 TO 20 MINUTES,

AND THEN WE'LL COME BACK
AND TAKE A READING.

- SO THAT'S IT?

TRIANGULATING A HOT SPOT
USING THE LONG-RANGE LOCATOR

HELPS US IDENTIFY
A PLACE TO SEARCH

SO THAT BEFORE
WE TEAR UP THIS PROPERTY,

WE HAVE EVIDENCE

THERE'S SOMETHING WORTH FINDING
UNDERGROUND.

- ALL RIGHT, RYAN,
I NEED YOU TO MARK THIS.

WE GOT A HIT.

- WAIT A MINUTE.

ARE YOU TELLING ME
YOU JUST GOT A HIT FOR GOLD?

- NOT JUST ANY HIT.

WE GOT A HIT
FOR A LARGE AMOUNT OF GOLD.

- HOW MUCH GOLD?

- WELL, WE SET THE BOX

SO IT'S ON A MINIMUM
OF 50 OUNCES, SO...

- 50 OUNCES?
MORE THAN 50 OUNCES?

- AT LEAST 50 OUNCES, YES.

- IN THAT DIRECTION?

- IN THIS DIRECTION.

- OKAY, I'M IN.

WHAT'S NEXT?

- WE NEED TO MOVE THE BOX
TO ANOTHER AREA

SO WE CAN SET UP TWO MORE TIMES,

SO WE'RE ABLE TO TRIANGULATE
THESE LINES,

SO WE CAN PINPOINT

EXACTLY WHERE
THIS BURIED TREASURE IS.

- GOT ANOTHER GOOD SPOT HERE.

- WE JUST HAVE TO MAKE SURE

WE HAVE A CERTAIN AMOUNT
OF DISTANCE BETWEEN THEM

SO WE'RE ABLE TO GET
A GOOD TRIANGULATION.

- OKAY, YOU GONNA DO YOUR MAGIC
WITH THE RODS?

- FINGERS CROSSED.

- OKAY, RYAN,
YOU NEED YOU TO MARK THIS.

- ANOTHER HIT?
- SAME DIRECTION.

IT'S ACTUALLY HEADED
RIGHT DOWN TO THE PROPERTY.

- WHERE THE CASTLE IS?

- WHERE THE CASTLE IS, CORRECT.

- SO THE TREASURE MIGHT ACTUALLY
BE AT THE CASTLE,

JUST LIKE WE THOUGHT?

- IT MAY POSSIBLY BE THERE, YES.

- WE'RE TWO FOR TWO.

- TWO FOR TWO, AND HE SAID...
WHAT, OVER 50 OUNCES?

- YEAH.

- WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO WITH...

- I'M TRYING TO IMAGINE HOW...
MY 25?

- WE GOT ONE MORE LINE TO SET,

AND THEN...

- IF WE'RE THREE FOR THREE,
THAT'S GREAT.

- AND THEN WE'LL KNOW THE SPOT.

- THERE IT IS.

- OKAY, RYAN, YOU WANT
TO COME OVER HERE AND MARK THIS?

- IT'S POINTING AT THE SPOT
AGAIN, ISN'T IT?

- YEAH, I THINK NOW
WE'LL HAVE OUR TRIANGULATION.

I THINK IT'S GOING
DIRECTLY AT THE PROPERTY

THAT WE NEED TO BE AT.

- SO THE WELL'S THE HOT SPOT.

- THAT'S WHERE THE TREASURE IS.

WHAT'S NEXT IS A METAL DETECTOR.

- AND WE'LL BE ABLE TO SEE

IF THERE'S METAL, CHAMBERS...
EVERYTHING.

- ALL RIGHT. LET'S GET AFTER IT.

ALL RIGHT, WHAT DO YOU GOT?

- YOU SEE THIS FIRST RING HERE?

THAT'S THE WELL. - OKAY.

- NOW, THIS ONE THAT'S DIRECTLY
OUT IN FRONT OF IT HERE,

THAT IS ACTUALLY
A ROOM OR A TUNNEL

THAT'S DIRECTLY BEHIND YOU.

SO SOMEWHERE DOWN THIS WELL,

THERE'S EITHER AN ARCH
OR A TUNNEL

THAT'S GONNA LEAD INTO A VOID

RIGHT BEHIND
WHERE YOU'RE STANDING.

- YOU'RE KIDDING.
- THAT'S IT.

- RIGHT HERE?
- RIGHT HERE.

RIGHT IN THIS AREA.

- THAT'S A ROOM?
- THAT'S A ROOM.

THAT'S A VOID UNDERGROUND THERE.

- OKAY.

- AND SO RELATIVE TO THE SIZE

OF THE OPENING OF THE WELL,
THAT'S HOW BIG THAT IS.

- THAT'S A PRETTY BIG ROOM.

OKAY, I GOT TWO QUESTIONS:

HOW DEEP?

AND THE SECOND QUESTION IS,

IS THERE GOLD IN THERE?

- WE KNOW THAT

YOU TRIANGULATED TO THIS POINT
LOOKING FOR GOLD.

- CORRECT.

- I THINK IT'S TIME

TO SEND A DIVER DOWN THAT WELL

TO VERIFY POSSIBLE ENTRYWAYS
INTO THE CAVITY.

- ALL RIGHT, WELL,
I SAY LET'S GO.

LET'S START.

- GO THAT WAY...

- IF I GO DOWN
AND THERE'S A PROBLEM,

I'LL PULL ON THE ROPE
THREE TIMES SHARPLY,

AND THEY'LL PULL ON THE ROPE
THREE TIMES BACK

TO UNDERSTAND
THAT THEY COMMUNICATED THAT.

IF I FIND ANYTHING DOWN THERE,

I'LL PULL THE ROPE TWICE.

- OKAY.
- SO TWO FOR FINDING SOMETHING.

THREE FOR... FOR... - TROUBLE.

- A PROBLEM.

- SO, GUYS, WHAT DO YOU WANT PAT
TO BE LOOKING FOR?

- AN ARCH OR A CAVE.
- AN OPENING...

- AN OPENING.
- AN ENTRANCE.

- OR STONEWORK THAT INDICATES

THAT SOMETHING MIGHT BE BEYOND...

- SOMETHING MAN-MADE.

- OKAY, GUYS, ROCK AND ROLL.

- GOOD LUCK.

- YOU SEE WHERE THE BUBBLES ARE?

- YEAH, HE'S ON THIS SIDE.

- HE'S ON THIS SIDE.

- HE WENT DOWN TO THE BOTTOM.

HE'S WORKING HIS WAY UP.

WELL, HOW DID IT GO?
- IT'S GOING WELL.

DO WE HAVE THE INFRARED CAMERA
THAT WE WANT TO SEND DOWN?

- WHAT DID YOU FIND?

- COME ON...
- LOOK AT THAT FACE!

LOOK AT THAT FACE!

- DON'T BE A JERK NOW.
TALK TO US.

- GUYS, GUYS, GUYS.

I CAN'T SEE A VOID.

- OKAY.
- OKAY.

- HOW FAR DOWN
WOULD YOU SAY YOU WENT?

- I WENT DOWN
RIGHT TO THE BOTTOM.

- HOW MANY FEET WOULD YOU GUESS?
- ABOUT 16.

- PATRICK, WHAT WE'RE
LOOKING FOR IS AN ARCHWAY,

SOMETHING LIKE
THEY MAY HAVE BRICKED IN,

WHERE IT WOULD LOOK LIKE
A BRICKED-IN WINDOW.

WE'RE BELIEVING IT TO BE
ON THIS SIDE OF THE WELL,

'CAUSE THIS IS WHERE
THE VOID WAS.

- OKAY, PERFECT.

- YOU GET IN TROUBLE
OR IF YOU SEE SOMETHING,

YOU GIVE THIS A TUG, ALL RIGHT?

- ABSOLUTELY.

- THERE'S THE LINE.

SO HE'S ON, RIGHT HERE.

- I SEE WHERE HE IS.

HE'S AIMED RIGHT OVER THIS WAY
RIGHT NOW.

NOW HE'S AIMED
RIGHT UNDER OUR FEET.

HE JUST TUGGED TWICE, GUYS.

- WELL, HE'S GOT SOMETHING.
GO BACK.

GO BACK... BACK. GO BACK.

- HE THINKS
THERE'S SOMETHING DOWN THERE.

- THERE IS!
- WELL, THERE'S...

THERE IS SOMETHING DOWN THERE;
HE PULLED TWICE.

- WAIT A MINUTE.
- IS HE COMING UP?

- NO, HE'S GOING DOWN DEEPER.

- GOING DOWN AGAIN.

- HOLY. HE'S STILL GOING.

COULD HE HAVE FOUND
THE ENTRANCE?

- HE MAY HAVE FOUND
THE PASSAGEWAY.

- DON'T TELL ME
HE WENT IN THE VOID.

- HIS LIGHTS DISAPPEARED.

- SO WHAT THE HELL
DID HE DUCK INTO?

- WELL, IT HAD TO BE
THE DAMN ROOM.

- 'CAUSE IT'S ON THIS SIDE.

- HOLY. WHAT IS THAT?

RIGHT THERE.

THAT'S MAN-MADE,

DEFINITELY MAN-MADE.

STEVE, THAT COULD BE
THE ENTRANCE TO THE TREASURE...

- WHOO-HOO.
- TO YOUR FAMILY TREASURE.

- ALL RIGHT, HERE HE COMES.
HERE HE COMES.

- HE'S COMING UP.

- GUYS, I FOUND SOMETHING.

- GUYS, I FOUND SOMETHING.

I GOT TO GO BACK DOWN.

- WHAT DID YOU SEE? WHAT?

- THERE'S A LINE OF STONES
GOING STRAIGHT DOWN.

- THEY'RE LINED UP,
AND THEY'RE NOT RANDOM, RIGHT?

- NO. THEY'RE NOT RANDOM.

- WAS IT A "V" ARCH?
WAS IT A ROUNDED ARCH?

WAS IT EVEN AN ARCH?
WHAT WAS IT THAT YOU SAW?

- THEY'RE IN
A STRAIGHT-DOWN PATTERN.

- OKAY.

- IT'S NOT LIKE A ROCK,

ANOTHER ONE ON TOP,

AND ANOTHER ONE UNDERNEATH.

- THAT'S RANDOM.

- THESE ARE GOING STRAIGHT DOWN,

STRAIGHT DOWN LIKE THIS.

- DOES IT LOOK LIKE
IT MIGHT BE A PASSAGE

OR WAS A PASSAGE?

- WELL, I LOOKED
IN BETWEEN THE ROCKS,

AND I CAN SEE
OTHER ROCKS IN BEHIND IT,

AND IT LOOKS LIKE
IT GOES VERY, VERY DEEP.

- SO THERE'S SOMETHING
BEHIND THERE.

- THERE'S SOMETHING BEHIND IT.

- GOD! I'LL BE DAMNED.

- GOT TO BE SOMETHING BEHIND IT.

OH, MAN.

- I KNEW IT WAS HERE.
- STEVE!

- DUDE...

- GOOD?
- YEAH.

- THERE YOU GO.

- THAT'S RIGHT.
- ALL RIGHT.

- NICE GOING, MAN.
- ALL RIGHT, BUDDY.

- COULD IT HAVE BEEN OPEN
AT ONE TIME

AND THEN FILLED IN?

- AND THEN FILLED BACK IN? IT...

THAT'S QUITE POSSIBLE.

- I GUESS... NOW WHAT DO WE DO?

WE GOT TO DRILL, RIGHT?

- NO, PUMP IT DRY.
- LET'S GET IT DONE.

- ALL RIGHT,
GET THE PUMP IN THERE.

LET'S GO.

WHEN DEN PARADA TOLD ME

HE FOUND THE LOCATION
OF THE TEMPLAR TREASURE,

I WAS VERY SKEPTICAL.

BUT THERE'S NO DENYING
MULTIPLE LINES OF EVIDENCE

POINT TO JUST ONE THING:

THE HOLY GRAIL THE TEMPLARS
WERE ORDERED TO PROTECT

COULD BE IN THIS WELL.

STEVE'S RELATIVE
PRINCE HENRY SINCLAIR

WAS SUPPOSEDLY THE LAST ONE
TO GUARD THE TREASURE.

AND I FOUND WHAT COULD BE

THE WALLS OF HIS CASTLE
RIGHT HERE.

THE LONG-RANGE LOCATING WORK
JAMES DID

SUGGESTS THERE'S TREASURE
IN A VOID UNDERGROUND

NEXT TO THE WELL,

AND THE METAL DETECTOR
CONFIRMED THAT.

AND NOW PATRICK FOUND
WHAT APPEARS TO BE

A BRICKED-OFF ENTRANCE
TO A SECRET ROOM

DOWN IN THIS WELL.

THE WATER'S BEEN PUMPED OUT,

AND I WANT TO SEE IT FOR MYSELF.

READY.

I'M JUST GONNA START

AND GO MAYBE A COUPLE FEET
EACH TIME.

OH!

WHAT THE HECK IS THAT?

- WHAT DO YOU SEE, SCOTT?

- WELL, IT GOES BACK
FARTHER THAN

IT LOOKS LIKE THE ROCKS DO;
THERE IS A GAP BACK HERE.

- THAT'S WHERE THAT WINDOW IS
HE WAS TALKING ABOUT.

- OKAY, DOWN.

THERE'S DEFINITELY ROCKS

BACK BEHIND
THE ROCKS ON THE FACE.

DOES SOMEBODY HAVE A STICK?

- MEASURING STICK OR SOMETHING.

- YEAH, I'D LIKE
TO STICK IT BACK.

IT GOES BACK
AT LEAST A COUPLE FEET.

- HERE.

- ALL RIGHT, HERE WE GO.

- THAT'S AMAZING.

- OH, WOW.
- OH...

- YOO-HOO-HOO-HOO! OH!

- I MEAN, IT GOES ALL THE WAY.

THAT'S ABOUT 26 INCHES, MAYBE.

- WOULD YOU LIKE THE SNAKE CAM?

- WE CAN PROBABLY
REACH IT DOWN TO YOU.

HANG ON.

- THIS IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS.

- HOLY. LOOK AT THAT.

IT KEEPS GOING BACK.

NOW I'M GOING IN
A REAL SMALL CAVITY.

IT INDICATES TO ME
THAT THIS IS PART

OF A LARGER STRUCTURE;
THERE'S MORE TO IT.

IT COULD BE
THE TREASURE ROOM, STEVE.

WE MIGHT HAVE THE HOLY GRAIL
RIGHT DOWN HERE.

WHERE'S THE SHOVEL?

I WANT TO START DIGGING
RIGHT NOW.

- WHOO-HOO!

- OH!

- SO WHAT ARE WE DRILLING HERE?

WE'RE GONNA DRILL
AN 8-INCH HOLE STRAIGHT DOWN.

- WELL, WE'RE GONNA DRILL DOWN
ABOUT 14 FEET,

RIGHT WHERE THOSE TWO WALLS

SHOOT DOWN THE MIDDLE
OF THE CASTLE.

WE SHOW NO CAVITIES
WITH OUR MACHINE,

SO THE WATER
HAS EITHER FILLED UP THE VOID,

AND WE HAVE NOTHING...

- WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.
NO CAVITY?

YOU'RE SAYING
IT'S FILLING UP THE CHAMBER?

- WE KNOW THERE'S A VOID THERE.

WE'RE PULLING STICKS AND THAT
OUT OF IT.

BUT WE... SOMEHOW,
WE JUST CAN'T PICK IT.

OUR NEEDLES ON OUR MACHINE
ARE JUMPING CONSTANTLY.

WE'VE HAD
A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH,

LIKE, AN ENERGY FORCE
UNDERNEATH HERE,

SOMETHING MAGNETIC...
I DON'T KNOW.

- SO IF THERE IS A CHAMBER
DOWN HERE,

COULD THERE
BE SOMETHING IN THERE

THAT IS THROWING OFF
YOUR READINGS?

- POSSIBLE.

I JUST DON'T KNOW. YEAH.

- WHAT COULD THAT BE, STEVE?

- ALL SORTS OF LEGENDS
AROUND THIS STORY.

IT COULD BE ANY ONE OF THEM...
ARK OF THE COVENANT.

- THERE'S ALL KINDS OF THINGS
THAT COULD BE GOING ON,

BUT THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY
TO FIND OUT FOR SURE.

- YES.
- PUT A HOLE IN THE GROUND.

- LET'S DRILL.

- EQUIPMENT NOT WORKING OR...

- TURN THE KEY,

AND YOU'VE SEEN THAT
SHE DIDN'T WANT TO START.

IT'S A LITTLE BIT ABNORMAL
FOR THIS TIME OF THE YEAR.

- SOME PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT

THERE'S STRANGE ENERGY
THAT'S HERE...

THIS BEING
PRINCE HENRY'S CASTLE.

OUR EQUIPMENT
DOESN'T SEEM TO WORK.

NOW YOU'RE HAVING TROUBLE.

- I DON'T KNOW.

WE'LL SEE...
WE'LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

- OKAY, MIKE, LET'S...
LET'S DO IT.

- WHOA!

- BATTERY'S SMOKING.

- BATTERY'S SMOKING!
- SMOKIN'.

- WHAT THE HELL
IS GOING ON HERE?

- WE'RE GONNA TRY TO BOOST IT
AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

- TRY IT NOW, BUD.

- SO WHAT IF WE CAN'T
GET THIS THING GOING?

WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO DIG BY HAND.

- YEAH!

- LOOKS LIKE
IT WENT DOWN THERE FINE

FOR A COUPLE FEET,
THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN,

YOU HIT A BOULDER, RIGHT?

- A FEW OF THEM, OKAY.

IS IT POSSIBLE
THAT YOU HIT BOULDERS

THAT WERE MAYBE STACKED ON TOP
OF EACH OTHER?

- SO IT'S POSSIBLE
YOU COULD HAVE HIT A WALL,

DRILLED RIGHT THROUGH A WALL.

THAT VOID IS ACTUALLY
OVER THERE,

AND I WOULD IMAGINE
THE WALL BEING RIGHT THERE

IF THERE IS A CAVITY DOWN THERE.

LET'S HIT THE HOLE.

- LET'S HIT THE HOLE.

- IF WE GO 3-FOOT INCREMENTS...

I MEAN, IF THAT CHAMBER'S HERE,
WE CAN'T MISS IT.

- IF YOU HAD TOLD ME THAT
ONE DAY,

I'D REALLY HAVE A SHOT
AT FINDING THE HOLY GRAIL,

I'D HAVE SAID,
"THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE."

BUT NOW I'M STANDING
ON THE EXACT SPOT

WHERE A SECRET ROOM,
AN UNDERGROUND TREASURE,

AND A TEMPLAR LEGEND
SEEM TO COME TOGETHER.

THE FIRST HOLE WE DRILLED
WAS A BUST,

BUT EVERYTHING UP UNTIL NOW

POINTS TO TREASURE
BEING UNDERNEATH OUR FEET.

WE'VE PICKED UP
ON THE PRESENCE OF GOLD HERE

DEEP UNDERGROUND,

BUT I'M INTERESTED
IN AN EVEN DEEPER TRUTH,

THE TRUTH OF WHETHER OR NOT

THE TEMPLARS THEMSELVES
WERE HERE,

WITH OR WITHOUT THE HOLY GRAIL.

IF THERE IS A CHAMBER HERE,

THERE'D BE A WALL
RIGHT IN THIS AREA,

AND I THINK THAT'S WHAT
WE MAY HAVE HIT.

- OKAY.

DENNY.

NO VOID HERE.

HE HIT A MASSIVE BOULDER
AT THE BOTTOM,

ABOUT 15 FEET,

SO WE'RE NOT IN THE RIGHT SPOT.

MAYBE SOMEBODY DUG HERE.

THIS IS NOT NATURAL.

THIS WAS DUG OUT
AT SOME OTHER TIME IN THE PAST.

I SAW A CHAMBER
ON YOUR DATA RIGHT HERE.

IS THAT STILL THERE?

- ACCORDING TO THE EQUIPMENT,
YES.

- SO IT IS STILL HERE?
- YES.

- SO THAT SUCKER
SHOULD BE RIGHT HERE.

- CORRECT.

- DONE.

- SO WE HAD ALL THESE THINGS
GOING IN OUR FAVOR.

I MEAN, EVERYTHING

THAT WE'VE BEEN
TALKING OURSELVES INTO...

- WE DON'T HAVE A HOLE YET.

- WE'RE NOT GONNA FIND HERE.

DENNY, YOU KNOW
WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?

- I HAVE NO IDEA.

- DO YOU SEE THAT RED SOIL
OVER THERE?

- YEAH.
- THAT'S FILL.

WHAT WE HIT WAS A TRENCH
THAT'S BEEN BACKFILLED.

BACKFILL IS NEVER GONNA BE
AS DENSE AS NATURAL SOIL,

NATURAL CLAY.

SO IT'S THE DENSITY DIFFERENCE

BETWEEN THE TRENCH
AND THE NATURAL SOILS

THAT CREATED THAT ANOMALY.

- OKEYDOKE.

- SO WHAT CAUSED
THAT DENSITY ANOMALY?

BACKFILL.

BUT THAT BACKFILL
ALSO PROVES SOMETHING

THAT NONE OF US WANT TO HEAR:

SOMEONE HAS ALREADY BEEN HERE.

AND IF THE TREASURE WAS HERE,

WE'RE TOO LATE.

BUT ONE QUESTION REMAINS:

WHERE'S THE GOLD
THEY GOT A HIT FOR

USING BOTH
THE LONG-RANGE LOCATOR

AND THE METAL DETECTOR?

RYAN AND JIM
LAID OUT THIS TRIANGULATION,

AND THEY SAID

THERE WAS MORE THAN
50 OUNCES OF GOLD

WHERE THOSE LINES INTERSECTED.

YOU GUYS SAID IT WAS HERE.

- THERE'S JUST SOMETHING
IN THE GROUND HERE...

I DON'T KNOW...
THAT'S THROWING EVERYTHING OFF.

- SOMETHING'S LEADING HERE...
- I'M TELLING YOU.

IT'S HERE,
BUT IT'S NOT GONNA FIND...

IT'S NOT COMING OUT
OF THE GROUND.

NOT THIS TIME.

- SO WHAT YOU'RE TELLING ME IS,
YOU THINK

THAT THERE'S
THE GHOST OF PRINCE HENRY

THAT'S KEEPING PEOPLE
FROM FINDING THE TREASURE?

- I'D BEEN WARNED ABOUT THIS
BEFORE WE CAME, YEAH.

- SO YOU DO THINK
THERE'S A CURSE.

THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE SAYING.

- THERE'S SOMETHING HAPPENING
HERE.

- IF IT'S NOT IN THE BOTTOM

OF ONE OF THOSE THREE HOLES,

IT'S GOT TO BE SOMEWHERE, RIGHT?

TOO MANY THINGS HAVE LINED UP
FOR IT TO NOT EXIST.

- WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT, GUYS?

I HAVE SOME THOUGHTS.

MAYBE THE TEMPLARS MOVED IT
AT SOME POINT

AFTER PRINCE HENRY
BROUGHT IT HERE,

AND IT'S STILL OUT THERE
SOMEWHERE.

- THEY'RE ALWAYS ONE STEP AHEAD.

- THE OTHER POSSIBILITY IS,

SOMEBODY ELSE WAS HERE
DIGGING FOR TREASURE.

MAYBE THEY FOUND IT, MAYBE NOT.

- IF YOU WATCH THE MOVIE
DA VINCI CODE,

AFTER ALL THAT WORK,
ALL THAT MYSTERY AND INTRIGUE,

HE FINALLY GETS
TO ROSSLYN CHAPEL

AND EXPECTS TO FIND IT,
AND WHERE IS IT?

IT'S GONE. - IT'S GONE.

IF THE TEMPLARS WERE
AS INTELLIGENT STRATEGICALLY

AS WE KNOW THEY WERE,

THEY WOULD KEEP IT MOVING
ALL THE TIME.

I STILL THINK PRINCE HENRY

BROUGHT THIS TREASURE
TO THE NEW WORLD.

I THINK IT MAY HAVE BEEN
IN OAK ISLAND AT ONE TIME.

IT MAY HAVE BEEN AT NEW ROSS,
BUT IT'S BEEN MOVED.

THE SIGNS ARE EVERYWHERE.

THE CLUES ARE EVERYWHERE.

AND IT'S HERE SOMEWHERE
IN NORTH AMERICA,

AND I'M GONNA FIND IT.

WE HIT A DRY HOLE.

IT WAS HERE, BUT NOW IT'S GONE.

NOT FINDING THE TEMPLAR TREASURE
IN NOVA SCOTIA

WAS A DISAPPOINTMENT,

BUT I'M MORE CONVINCED THAN EVER
IT WAS THERE AT ONE TIME.

THE QUESTION IS,
WHERE IS IT NOW?

FOR YEARS, I'VE BEEN SEARCHING
NOT JUST FOR THE TEMPLARS

AND THEIR TREASURE
HERE IN AMERICA

BUT FOR THE TRUE HISTORY
OF THIS COUNTRY.

THAT'S BECAUSE
THE HISTORY WE'VE BEEN TAUGHT

IS WRONG.

I'VE GOTTEN THOUSANDS OF TIPS

ON ARTIFACTS, SITES, AND SYMBOLS

I NEED TO CHECK OUT
ALL OVER THIS COUNTRY,

AND I'M JUST GETTING STARTED.

I'M SEARCHING FOR THE PAST
NO ONE KNOWS EXISTS.

AND ONE THING'S FOR SURE.

THERE'S A PATTERN

WOVEN INTO THE FABRIC
OF THIS COUNTRY,

SOMETHING THAT CONNECTS
THE PEOPLE OF THE PAST

TO EACH OTHER AND TO US

IN WAYS I'M ONLY STARTING
TO UNDERSTAND.

IF YOU HAVE
A MYSTERIOUS ARTIFACT OR SITE

I NEED TO SEE,
I WANT TO KNOW ABOUT IT.
