    Hes searching private property not because he got some cool new tip, he couldn’t get filming permits for the soups lol

  5. Nathan Clay on October 1, 2022 at 7:44 pm

    I know where the Dutchman is located, I can explain about 90% of the Peralta Stones. I need an investor.

    Real life holes.

  7. Margaret Koopman on October 1, 2022 at 7:46 pm

    I’ve known that the mapstones had been in the museum for years, I even have pictures of them from back in the days, so at the beginning of the movie, I’m like- ok, I know exactly where the original stones are… Haha, so I’m glad someone finally contacted you. An fyi-anyone who has ever taken this quest seriously, has eventually bumped into the originals in order to fulfill their quest… This still remains today, the one and only reason to even visit Arizona. The mystery of the lost Dutchman mine. 🤍

    As always, click bait headline with no results.

  9. Chris Carothers on October 1, 2022 at 7:50 pm

    Just another bs story of the history channel w no facts, no conclusion….I unsubscribed

  10. mark atwood on October 1, 2022 at 7:50 pm

    a show based on lies and some truth, just to get people to watch.!!!

    Having translated the hand writen treaser map of J. Wals, You first need to understand that J. Wals was a 36 degree Mason. (a "Judge") The map is formulated with what J. Wals considered to be expressing his grater knowledge. Looking to the bottom right hand corner you will see what the reader might overlook to be a set of a vertical scribblings. This is a (cryptogram) remark of ( man being a monkey or monkeyman), awaiting translation. Noting this as not a probable insult. (interactive variant) this is a key on how to clime up and understand the maps cipher. R-L, from out of the CAVE on the right side,, accounting the mountains on the left side. The top of the map is based on chemistry, (MATH/Numbering) The map is formulated with symbolism that is interactive.

    The Dutch Man killed the Peralta Brothers original owners of the Mine, they were kind enough to inviting him to prospect with them showing him the mine but he got hold fever killing the brothers shooting them point blank and taking over the mine, he was just and scum Bag that’s all.

  13. Jeff Smith on October 1, 2022 at 7:53 pm

    I call bs on all of it 🤣

    The story that I heard was that the gold mentioned at 20:28 was found in a man made cave 200 yards down a tunnel in the floor that Scott was standing in front of. The cave he went to is government land. 4 gentleman discovered the gold. 3 rows 3 feet long. Stacked gold bars. They brought it up but the gold was seized

  16. FJB on October 1, 2022 at 7:59 pm

    I couldn’t stomach watching this whole episode but I am curious did Scott get out his trusty visine bottle full of battery acid to test a rock?

  17. Mark P on October 1, 2022 at 8:00 pm

    maybe it’s on federal land you guys can’t dig, maybe the shaft is buried. Heck maybe they won’t even give permits to film??

  18. Brian Puffenbarger on October 1, 2022 at 8:00 pm

    I no about that finger print for gold. I’m looking at 70 soon. Got some of that kinda gold. Probably said to much now.

  19. Harold Bell on October 1, 2022 at 8:00 pm

    Hearts are just to perfect for someone to have carved in the desert

  20. Kitter Glitter 😻 on October 1, 2022 at 8:01 pm

    Maybe the lost Dutchman did actually have fools gold and ppl back in the day didnt realize they were scammed

  21. George E. on October 1, 2022 at 8:03 pm

    Scott Wolter is so wrong about goldfield being the dutchmans mine. LMFAO he is so clueless

  22. R Slama on October 1, 2022 at 8:04 pm

    Allegedly, the lost Dutchman mine has recently been found. Unfortunately I didn’t discover it.

  23. Rusty Smith on October 1, 2022 at 8:04 pm

    Im thinking; with all the doubt, wonder, fibs, misdirection and misconception; the mountains are mis- named and should be called " The Suspicions." Or maybe, Super suspicions.

  24. Vvykk on October 1, 2022 at 8:06 pm

    Is everything the history channel does have to be overstylized?
    Sometimes these shows are as bad as Hallmark movies.

  25. Tom Dooley on October 1, 2022 at 8:08 pm

    You lost all credibility being politically correct with history , I know you to be secular atheist so your oath and a Confederate dollar
    have the same value.

  26. Ben Johnson on October 1, 2022 at 8:08 pm

    there is no gold in that area, just a story that’s it.

  27. Patty Aaron on October 1, 2022 at 8:09 pm

    Man I wish I had his phone service… He can get text out in the middle of nowhere in a cave. Imagine that….

  28. Michael Lovetere on October 1, 2022 at 8:15 pm

    Oh Brother! Another Al Capone’s vault..

  29. Ruth Godfrey on October 1, 2022 at 8:15 pm

    Every time I start watching one of theses doc’s, I know that you won’t find what your looking for. You leave the audience with more questions than before . Have you ever found anything ? Or found any answeres?

  30. Jesus on October 1, 2022 at 8:16 pm

    Something that Huge will not and should not be Divulged.I would have pictures of said Gold But never the Location.

  31. mike Janicke on October 1, 2022 at 8:17 pm

    He didn’t even look for it

  32. Vincent Davidson on October 1, 2022 at 8:18 pm

    U can sit down in the desert
    And if u take your eyes off the
    Ground around u u may see a
    Rattlesnake by your feet then
    It might b to late for u. It almost
    Happen to me. I have seen them
    In caves, in bushes, and menny
    Other places.

  33. Gary Herndon on October 1, 2022 at 8:18 pm

    You want to see the LDM up close and Personal then you need to contact me. I am to this date the only person that has actually seen, been inside the mine and most of all I know the exact location. Tom Feldman is good but he has No Clue where the Mine is at , Tom Koll e n born (had to your comment section does not recognize NAME) was a Great Man but even he never knew where the LDM was located. The Original so called Peralta Stones disappeared probably 20 yrs ago and no one wants to come forth and say who has them. The Stone Maps are real if you can find the originals but they were made by Jesuit Priests not Mexican Land Owners. I started prospecting just after high school graduation in 1982, its been 40 yrs from a Hobby to the only employment I can work withy my disability. Seriously, you need to contact me!

  34. Harry Ass Truman on October 1, 2022 at 8:18 pm

    I’m a forensic geologist this isn’t a real replica it’s a replica of a replica

  35. Big Money Heavy Weight on October 1, 2022 at 8:19 pm

    The History Channel has a way of making people think they are actually doing something… 🙄

  36. Robert Brown on October 1, 2022 at 8:22 pm

    I hope Scott finds something big. These shows are entertaining…I don’t expect them to be doctoral research program.

  37. Anthony Golden on October 1, 2022 at 8:25 pm

    Yeah this show is definitely been a bummer And if you do any research on a lot of the stuff that they’re looking into getting into it’s almost like they’re trying to Create a diversion

  38. Donald Maxie on October 1, 2022 at 8:26 pm

    There’s no record of the Dutchman ever taking anyone to his mine. One person moving and installing the heavy timbers show in the tunnel, highly unlikely.

  39. Gary Herndon on October 1, 2022 at 8:27 pm

    Tom Feldman states the (so called) Peralta Stones he has are the Same Size Same Shape and Everything on the…. STOP! No, they do not have everything on them, Period End of Bloody Story. The ones Tom has are a Bloody wall decoration not an authentic replica that has Documentation supporting it. "What the Original Stone Maps were, is a Story of building a Scared Heart to Store a Huge Treasure… I.E. The Larin Heart". The canyon the LDM sits in is the Canon Fresco Canyon which to my belief is where the Guadalupe Mines were originally located at. It might sound far fetched but if you think about it, Its not as crazy as it sounds. And I can prove every word I state 1000%.

  40. Tim H. on October 1, 2022 at 8:28 pm

    This show and this guy are pure garbage makes all these big claims and never comes through with any of them

  41. Gary Herndon on October 1, 2022 at 8:29 pm

    If the History Channel or anyone else would like to one day actually have the chance to stand in the canyon that the LDM sits in, Then they need to contact me.

  42. martin rutherford on October 1, 2022 at 8:30 pm

    I think quartz is fossil blood plasma .That is why it is in veins . the GIANT creatures of the past had gold and silver in their veins , quartz has all kinds of minerals in it just like our blood also has . Fossil BIOLOGY is GEOLOGY . But the GEOLOGIST won’t agree with me . They can’t see the fossil flesh in Geology , but I can .

  43. Vvykk on October 1, 2022 at 8:33 pm

    14:21 WTF?

    Why do we need a butt shot at 30 feet looking outside from the inside of a shack when he says "let me ask you another question."

    Who produces this junk.

  44. Edward Martin on October 1, 2022 at 8:36 pm

    One thing I noticed about shows like this: They are always searching but they never find anything substantial. Then the episode just ends without a real conclusion. Rinse and repeat.

  45. SamuraiSkill on October 1, 2022 at 8:36 pm

    Let’s all keep a tight grip on reality here.. the government owns all that. They already got it.

  46. Carl Johnson on October 1, 2022 at 8:39 pm

    I can tell you for a fact, being a resident and knowing many of the locals in this series, that most of it is bogus. Made me never trust the History Channel again after watching these falsehoods and made up events.

  47. Ginger Broussard on October 1, 2022 at 8:39 pm

    This dude never finishes what he started!I do like the information he brings to light, cause I never heard of any of these places, so I appreciate it for that aspect! I wish he could just say yatzee 1 time, but also, what’s with the Masonic compass???

  48. DAMIAN WAGNER on October 1, 2022 at 8:40 pm

    I believe that the lost Dutchman mine will never be found. For one simple reason the deutschman originally lived in Phoenix a hundred years ago was not nearly as big as it is today. So when you travel up the canyon North Phoenix nowadays. The city has expanded exponentially. If she would have been on foot and traveling with a pack mule or donkey then he would have averaged about six to eight miles per day if it would have taken him 3 days to get to his mind then that’s only about 15 to 18 miles from downtown Phoenix. Where his girlfriend lived. So more than likely the mind is located either in someone’s backyard or under somebody’s house or maybe it’s under some housing development. And all the clues that the History channel and the government allows us to know if steering everyone in the wrong direction. Because the government and large corporations don’t want the average Joe to find that. Think about how our society works people with power want to remain in power governments have special projects that they don’t want us to know about so the best way for them to do what they want is to find other means to fund their projects so therefore they don’t have to explain their spending to us. What’s that in mind I would guarantee that the last Dutchman is already been found and completely mind out. And then covered up by some government agency maybe it’s a lake or a reservoir now cuz they buried a lot of secrets that they didn’t want the public to know about under lakes. And back in the 40s and 50s when they found most of the stuff they would build a big dam and flood it to keep local average citizens out of their business. Lake Powell is one of those. Many buried secrets. There are parts of the Grand canyon that if you go there you’ll be in a lot of hot water. It’s a national park but don’t take pictures of certain areas.

    100% bs, and always was. !!!

  50. Patty Aaron on October 1, 2022 at 8:40 pm
