Oak Island money pit
 

By most accounts, the story of Oak Island's Money Pit begins in the summer of 1795 when a teenager named Daniel McGinnis saw strange lights on an island offshore from his parent's house. According to author Lee Lamb, upon investigating the island for the source of the lights, McGinnis noticed a peculiar circular depression approximately 13 feet in diameter on the island's forest floor..........

Thanks for sharing...


nothing

:2 cents:

i visited there in the 90's (1990s, not 1890s)...
it was very cool...

I watched the history channel show on this. I was disappointed.

the team lowered a video camera into the watery shaft. The lens relayed grainy yet dramatic images back to observers at the surface. According to authors Graham Harris and Les MacPhie, Borehole 10X terminated in a cavity carved out of bedrock. Within the stone chamber were what appeared to be a severed hand, a corpse and several treasure chests (2005). Prompted by the video images, the Triton Alliance initiated approximately 10 diving excursions into the subterranean cavern. No treasure was extracted as a result of the divers' investigations.

I call BULLSHIT:2 cents:

I have always been fascinated by the Oak Island Money Pit mystery ever since I first read about it in Fate Magazine in the late Seventies. I watched the History Channel series too but they kind of dropped the ball on that.

I watched this on HC too. Seems interesting.

We visited the island sometime in the mid-70s...a decade after they built the causeway from the mainland. I just remember a lot of red snow-fencing around the various water-filled pits. Wasn't much to see. They'd opened a small museum with a few artifacts and junk.
