They said the wood that was found could just as easily been put in there from an earlier attempt at excavating or as simple as people tossing debris in there.
Hey I have no idea what's down there , and it would be awesome if the stories are true. But as a person who grew up with this story and have heard of the many "treasure hunters" trying to find what's hidden and also heard all the scientific evidence against...... I'll trust science over some self proclaimed treasure hunters.
But with today's technology don't you think rather than blindly excavating and doing a show they would just drill it and send down a camera???
If they found anything wouldn't it have been on the news already?
It's not like they film every episode live is it?
