The treasure in the thumbnail looks like sticks of butter covered in maple syrup
What an amazing achievement. But, "unfortunately for Roger… ". F#@king Marcos regime.
Roger you were a legend
Such a sad story
They def murked roger at the end
The US found the gold long ago and used it to fund the CIA among other things.
Golden kamuy 2 nuclear boogalo
Such a Sad true Story and the people we're treated so badly…
Fun fact about gold…. It's not anywhere near as rare as people think it is. It's just expensive to dig out from the ground.
Infact it's estimated that the sea bed has 7 times more gold than we have on land! – it's just getting it 🤔
The OSS recovered the 1.5 Trillion(In 1945 money) and it was used to fund them, after they transitioned to the CIA, along with black budget money, untill the 1990's.
So many othr hiding spots too ..
Japan
A Japanese Princess
This explains how the Nigerian Prince is able to give away soo much money
Lol – a bit after 10 minutes in, some guy says the Japanese encoded maps in "an ancient language called Kanji". Kanji is the current Japanese written characters! Saying it's some ancient secret language is as silly as saying "italics", or "boldface", or perhaps "underlined" is some secret ancient English language!
By the sound of things, that was only one of the vaults that was found. Incredible! Also, what about the scuttled ships of gold?
Already saw this on unsolved mysteries back in the 80s
Also, Roger was an extraordinary man!
Who murdered Roger?
Finally… Japanese looted treasures settled inside American hands silently ….without admitting by the USA forever….Phillipines infamous dictator Marcos acted as Idiot tyrant's lawer
What a tremendously sad story
If you track wealth back, it as all stolen. All wealth of all time. Stolen plunder.
These programmes are always the same ……. bet they find nowt 😄👍
