Imagine being so obsessed with pirate treasure you end up in a Vietnamese jail! This is the real-life Indiana Jones story we needed. 🏴☠🗺
What a tragic shame on the king. KIDD was loyal and great at his job!! RIP SIR, RIP. 😊
He's not forgotten 👍🏴
take note.... you can't trust the government in any century.
Captain Kidd supposedly stashed some stuff on the backside of our island, spent two weeks at an area that has a natural sea wall and pond, it’s an incredibly remote area with huge cliffs and was even more so back then, my girlfriends grandfather used to spend 4 days a week staying out there for decades, even had a bulldozer floated around and put on the seawall, he’d never admit it but everyone always said he had far more money than he ever had legitimately so figured he must have found something out there that convinced him there was more and made him a bit obsessed, we’re only a two day sail from oak island too and he was allegedly involved in that too
Any writing on the rocks there?
Interesting!!
Apart of oak island? That's where I stop believing. 17seasons and nothing 😂
@@taylormadgolfuk4146 “allegedly” lol the real treasure of that show is the history channel contracts lol
@@jaywood7672 supposedly there was markings on a semi-hidden flat rock found back in the mid 1800s by a fella from the mainland who heard the stories and came looking, but he was chased out but a ghost that summoned a freak storm to drive him away, I’m doubtful if that all but it adds some character to the mystery
They spent it just as we would now days
The money although diminished has always been kept in the family. No mystery,no treasure maps just the legacy of many generations of relative wealth.
Treasure is indeed contagious.
Nothing causes the do not recommend option faster than 12 minutes into a video and it starts rambling like a television commercial for itself!
well basically all channels advertise themselves so I imagine your algorithm isn't giving you the best stuff you could be watching just bc you won't fast forward through self-advertisements
Watching this from Wapping in East London. The place where he was executed
A desperate man will try anything.
Wow what an amazing story 💯👍
Bro i have massive respect for you and your channel, keep up the great uploads
Ok ok guys just letting you know. New subscriber here. Ran across you history videos and absolutely love them keep up the great work fam……..
The treasure might be at Asingyi Island. It looks very similar to the map drawing.
Your map graphic is wrong. The island you've marked is hon tre. Hon tre lon is a different island located directly south of ho chi Minh city.
I really like this narrator
S
If he’s that confident why doesn’t he go and find it?🤔🤥
How do you know he hasn't? If I found a treasure the last thing I would do is advertise it.
Imaginary golf. Great story and history lesson Intwined 👏
I've watched this story several times and I'm not sure what is true and what is not but you would think that something along the lines of this story must be true as far as the treasure maps and such how else would he have come about them. I suppose it's possible they were completely fake as well. But if the maps were true maps from the period then isn't it possible there is a treasure hidden somewhere in that vicinity?
His Legacy lives on and on
Werth more than Riches
So how many adds are going to play I almost don't want to watch this because they pop up literally every five minutes of footage
captain kidd s lost fortune good show
Not really, it's known where his fortune went. There is no mystery, no treasure maps.🏴
he had the wrong Island, the Long figure was acutally the Lat
The Gold Bug pointed the way to the treasure.
Persona!!!
Hmm!
I found it in a small chest with a skull and crossbones on it. Wait im thinking about my IRS papers. Sorry.
where did they waste the money so fast?
One Piece type lore
Oak Island was a real treasure map, that 'accidentally' became public knowledge.
Not like this expert was hunting to fortunes of a con artist, that had no pot of gold.
WK1669 the Adventure Galley
Edmunds should have a drink with me, I have one with MEGA potential and need a partner. It rests until then.
Should have married one on the island. The choices that we make.
Vietnamese already tried and didn't anything on the islands
Born Pirates, all have the burning desire to save up tings fer later matey
So Im assuming no one has searched the vietnamese island for treasure?
what think..where British get
