    At some point, watching the National Treasure movies, you realize Nicholas Cage is the national treasure.

  2. Dee Marie Dubois on January 2, 2022 at 6:12 am

    Thanks Simon.

  3. vadlekerduoskar on January 2, 2022 at 6:13 am

    0:30 "The treasure was Simon all along" 😮

    The video transition effect with the orange sliding parts create an image of a German Swastika.

    The pastor that died in this search was my cousin. He claimed it would be the last great adventure he’d get to go on before his ill health took him for good. Me and most of the family never held any ill will towards the the organizers of the search.

  6. Miss Paddington Bear's Pearls on January 2, 2022 at 6:18 am

    He actually died of pneumonia. He had lots of catches

  7. deejayimm on January 2, 2022 at 6:18 am

    Actually all you have to is wake up in America to stand a good chance of ending up broke, divorced, objected, or dead.

  8. Dwayne Hendrickson on January 2, 2022 at 6:18 am

    Eight centuries? More like eight decades.

  9. Chloe Damone on January 2, 2022 at 6:20 am

    Wait it’s losssuit not lawsuit???

  10. Orphan Crippler on January 2, 2022 at 6:21 am

    Lol "reloaded after killing himself." turns out Dr.Ruth had dirt on the Clintons 🤭

  11. Riko J. Amado on January 2, 2022 at 6:22 am

    Meh. Sorry Simon but Nicolas Cage has already done this documentary topic…in 2 volumes no less!

  12. fred flintstoner on January 2, 2022 at 6:22 am

    Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view!"
    Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam."
    Mrs Richards: "It’s not good enough!"
    Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?…"
    Mrs Richards: "Don’t be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!"
    Basil: "You can see the sea, it’s over there between the land and the sky."
    Mrs Richards: "I’m not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction."
    Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa’s not erupting at the moment?

  13. Joe T. on January 2, 2022 at 6:23 am

    Simon, could you guys do one on the Egyptian colony treasure supposedly found by the Smithsonian funded archeologist g.e. Kincaid?? It’s a cool story, and not well known. Would be awesome!!

  14. Audrey Muzingo on January 2, 2022 at 6:24 am

    I know what would give disappointed searchers some closure about someone else finding the treasure: If Stuef would get together with some talented production people and make a documentary about his search and discovery, along with whatever of sharing he’d be willing to do about himself and other people in his life before, during and after the search. Everyone’s got a story, and although he doesn’t "owe" his to anybody, I think it would really soothe the sore folks if they at least got to find the treasure by-proxy. Heck, the video could even include the experiences of some other people who tried! I’ve only been mildly interested in this story, but I’d watch the hell out of a wrap-up documentary about it!

  15. Thomas Sherer on January 2, 2022 at 6:26 am

    There are more.

  16. mentaldavethefirst on January 2, 2022 at 6:26 am

    Imagine finding 800lb of gold then watch the value shrink as you go through shady contact after shady contact to find a shady fence. Heartbreaking.

  17. jim james on January 2, 2022 at 6:28 am

    Nearly 8 centuries before in 1931……..
    You time traveller you.

  18. siggiesis on January 2, 2022 at 6:29 am

    Conspiracy theory alert: Duh, the US owns the Dutchman’s mine 🤣😜

  19. Mr. Crowley on January 2, 2022 at 6:29 am

    #freedanny wait wrong channel

  20. Dire on January 2, 2022 at 6:29 am

    Why donate to charity when you can set up a treasure hunt in dangerous terrain that gets people killed, injured & ruins lives

  21. CatsMeowPaw on January 2, 2022 at 6:29 am

    The real treasure is Simon Whistler. We found him.

  22. Graham Willox on January 2, 2022 at 6:32 am

    Is there 25twin brother? Every channel on my feed is Simon doing another channel!

  23. Daehawk on January 2, 2022 at 6:33 am

    Im surprised the one about the guy in the 20th century that stumbled into a desert cave and found bars of gold stacked high but couldnt refind it and the us military suddenly bought the area up .

  24. Powerstroke2003 on January 2, 2022 at 6:34 am

    want a good mystery from America?
    In the early 90’s a man invented a car that ran on water vapor and drove it across the entire country.
    He sold the patent to a major car manufacturer, They hid it away from the world and porbably destroyed any chance of anyone ever seeing how it was made . To keep them rich and the world reliant on oil.

    That man later took a drink out of his refrigerator, swallowed a sip, looked at his brother and said they poisoned me ( something along those lines) and dropped dead .

    well I guess it’s one of those American mysteries like how Joe Biden became president when everyone went to sleep with Trump winning by a landslide and by the morning somehow Biden had all these last minute, overnight votes and was way ahead. lol

  25. Eric Day on January 2, 2022 at 6:35 am

    Who ever finds the first one would be smart to invest in a melting furnace, some casting forms, a stout home safe, and not tell a soul how they came upon 800lbs of previously stolen gold.

  26. Shotgun Pete on January 2, 2022 at 6:35 am

    😂❤️👍🏻

  27. Ridgecrest Wack on January 2, 2022 at 6:35 am

    Its Jay-cub not Ya-cub simon …

  28. Alex Lubbers on January 2, 2022 at 6:36 am

    The Superstition Mountains are really beautiful, there’s a road that winds its way between the outskirts of Phoenix and Roosevelt Lake. Very impressive terrain.

  29. Charles Westphal on January 2, 2022 at 6:37 am

    Ugh it’s pronounced Boise not Boyzee.

  30. david bright on January 2, 2022 at 6:38 am

    The only gold found near the superstition mnts have been near apache junction where there a few gold mines. And geologists said the sups don’t have the right history for gold

    Also Forest Fenn was a documented Indian grave robber, and selling items to Europe. The sad thing is the law doesn’t apply to private land and such.

  31. btetschner on January 2, 2022 at 6:38 am

    Very interesting, thank you for the video.

  32. Robert Phillips on January 2, 2022 at 6:38 am

    The case of the Doctors death reminds me of the tail told about USSR officials that committed suicide by shooting themselves 6 Times in the Back of the Head. No word if they reloaded just in case 6 shots was not enough.

  33. Drew MacGregor on January 2, 2022 at 6:41 am

    Great videos, but you’re talking about a stage coach while showing a video of a train carriage

  34. Andrew Foster on January 2, 2022 at 6:42 am

    He could you maybe stop being so damn interesting so I could go on about my day instead of watching your videos for hours on end?

  35. patrickhasachannel on January 2, 2022 at 6:46 am

    I find it highly unlikely that Stuef found anything, even though that egregious amount of security would probably require a lot of liquid capital

  36. Jimmie Wharry on January 2, 2022 at 6:49 am

    1st story sounds lkke it could be a movie….. I’d watch western’s

  37. steven wilson on January 2, 2022 at 6:50 am

    I would love an analysis of what duties and powers the remaining European Royals have. What can Queen Margarit do that Queen Elizabeth can’t.

  38. RedSkysAreOnFire on January 2, 2022 at 6:50 am

    lost dutchman mine is apparently just a pit in the ground and not a tunnel into a hillside as the quartz veins in the superstition mountains that contain the gold go straight down. plus people get scared off by the legends of the Apache black legion that still guard the area, a band of 7ft tall warriors that kill anyone that gets too close to their sacred sites, which is also where the lost mine is.

  39. Ace Undead on January 2, 2022 at 6:51 am

    People arrested for using public property. A sign that the land of the free is slowly becoming unfree

  40. Cas on January 2, 2022 at 6:51 am

    How many fucking channels does this guy have? He must be raking it in

  41. Janice Sullivan on January 2, 2022 at 6:51 am

    I used to live in Arizona, I could see Superstition Mountain from my patio, people would always get into trouble looking for buried treasure.

  42. Lotusrk123 on January 2, 2022 at 6:57 am

    Do a video on how Ft. Knox gold bars (some belonging to foreign nations) got re-smelted with tungsten cores (making gold-plated fake bars) and a portion of the stolen gold ended up in an ex-President’s office; until we finally got an HONEST President who sent the FBI to search and recover.

  43. Vincent Vega on January 2, 2022 at 7:01 am

    Russian combat mole
    🤯

  44. Jack Chalupa on January 2, 2022 at 7:01 am

    Laughing to the bank???? Simon was that a chief keef reference

  45. Nelson Ward on January 2, 2022 at 7:02 am

    I live right beneath Superstition Mountain, most of the legend is just a hoax.

  46. Lionel Phillip on January 2, 2022 at 7:03 am

    Mmmmmmm possibly all treasures hunts are tests of the spirit/mind/body they let people show their true colors from the surface to the latent positive/negative aspects of an individual’s makeup. Mmmmmmm…………????mmmm…….?!!!??!?!?!!??!!

  47. Michael B on January 2, 2022 at 7:04 am

    I can’t keep up anymore on which channels Simon Whistler appears ! 🤔 …. Infographics, Geographics, etc etc etc !!

  48. Karina Flower on January 2, 2022 at 7:06 am

    I bet if Simon went treasure hunting in his beard he’d find that KFC lunch combo he forgot about.

  49. Nick McCormack on January 2, 2022 at 7:06 am

    Why did you show a train when talking about a stagecoach robbery?

  50. ComaDave on January 2, 2022 at 7:06 am

    "Where’s the money, Lebowski?"
