Mysterious Treasure on Oak Island
Category: Video > Documentary

"Forty feet below, two million pounds are buried."

This cryptic inscription on a stone uncovered at the 100-foot level of the Oak Island "money pit" has kept treasure hunters digging for almost 200 years. Over the centuries, Oak Island, which lies just off the coast of Nova Scotia, has gobbled up the resources and lives of many men without producing a single doubloon. Designed by some ancient engineer, the pit is a complex hole with timber crosspieces every 10 feet. Near the 100-foot level, any attempt to break through brings the Atlantic Ocean rushing in. So far, all efforts to solve the puzzle of the pit's protective design have failed. Even using the most modern technology, no one has been able to get through to those two million pounds... 50 billion dollars! Who built it and why? Some surprising answers in this video!

The greatest treasure is not at the bottom of the money pit.

It is the identities of those who built the money pit which is a marvel of engineering requiring a high level of expertise in the arts and sciences. Hardly what might be found lurking on a pirate ship.

There is a greater mystery here. The builders of the money pit were apparently also master surveyors with an interest in certain geographic points throughout Nova Scotia. But their work was not original, these mysterious
engineers were repeating work which was much much older. As documented by surveyor John Coleman
