The Curse of Oak Island

[lcarus]

They need to find something already damn it. It kills me to not know what was/is down there. Some speculate that parts of the legend were fabricated, like the stone tablet. ANd that some of the stuff they found down there like bones and metals were just debris that washed in there from shore or from above. It just seems to me they could get down there if they really really wanted to. With our technology now days? They should get in there. Tear that ****ing island up.

The bones are likely animals that fell in. The metal rust likely from the metal shell surrounding the top 50ft of the shaft and it's covering. Really doubt much of anything would be able to make it down the flood shaft, sand/dirt and other sediment sure, but likely nothing else.

So destroy an island for what is most likely going to be nothing? Sorry, but that is just stupid.

Meh, you wouldnt have to destroy the whole thing, its well over 200 acres IIRC, if I were in charge and had the money, the area in question would be ripped up pretty good.

Its not a perfect fix, but worst case scenario you just backfill it all and let nature take over again.

Figuratively speaking.

If all reports of findings this far into the treasure hunt are true, then I far it hard to believe there is nothing down there.

Your remark of "most likely nothing", strikes me as very odd.
