The Oak Island Money Pit

230 years of digging, six deaths, and still no treasure — is there even anything down there?

Since 1795, treasure hunters have dug into a mysterious pit on Oak Island, Nova Scotia, convinced something valuable was buried and booby-trapped beneath it. Despite over two centuries of excavation and six deaths, nothing conclusive has ever been recovered.
