Diving the Money Pit for treasure on The Curse of Oak Island
This week on The Curse of Oak Island, the Lagina brothers search the infamous Money Pit for treasure.
They are back in the Money Pit and when they drill down to 171 feet it suddenly drops to 178 feet and keeps dropping, indicating a cavity.
A small piece of grey metal is found in the pit and looks for all the world like a tiny model of Oak Island.
The team then sends down their diver, who descends to the murky depths and reaches the chamber at the bottom, but what will he find?
The Money Pit is a legend in itself and perhaps the main attraction of the island to treasure seekers over the years.
It’s been claimed it is a carefully constructed subterranean vault designed to keep its secrets from prying eyes and grasping hands, with various flood tunnels connected to it in order to make excavating it very difficult.
