The Oak Island Money Pit

And money pit is right. In 1795 at age 16, Daniel McGinnis discovered a depression in a clearing on Oak Island. It was reported that he returned with some friends and the three began to dig into what they thought was a pirate treasure hide away. The problem was after much digging (and a lot of money) the hole filled with seawater- not unlike the native sink holes in the area. Coincidence? Nope, not likely.. there has to be treasure there because for something like 215 years people are still trying to get the water out. Perhaps the biggest mystery is why people keep spending all their money on this pointless venture.
