Im glad that Mel Fisher was mentioned. I am quite familiar with the story as one of his children is a dear friend of mine. His story is truly amazing on many levels and worth looking into. The family is still searching till this day for the rest of the Atocha treasure and I wish them all the luck in the world. 🍀

The government leaves it up to private investors to spend the time, effort ,danger and expense, just to jump in and claim as much as they can. It's not really government wanting to protect history, as much as they just want to be greedy, without the risks. My humble opinion.

Its is astonishing how the water preserves artefacts and under such enormous pressure

If one spends the time and money 😊seeking out treasures- they should own it all. If the government wants a share, they should buy it from the finder. No greed hands involved. Lives have been lost in search of lost treasures. It’s dangerous

I am grateful for these kinds of expeditions that honest people do to preserve and protect true history that are not guess work so the future youth will witness it in these fascinating videos the team worked so diligently to share. Thank you ❤

Excellent documentary….100% agree with and behind the discoverer of Titanic…Great guy who has things firmly in an excellent perspective….👏👏👏👏👍😊

It would be so awesome just to touch a piece of history from the Roman ships after it was brought up from it's grave , wow that feeling would last a lifetime...

This is an amazing discover the lost treasure under the deepest of the sea is very exciting to watch and learned the two thousand year old ships rexed beneed the Sea .

Ballard himself gives the perfect argument why there is no reason whatsoever not to salvage the Titanic: no open historical questions, just a pile of artefacts rotting down there. what is lost must be found, and the artefacts be repurposed for what they have been created for: to enjoy them.

Treasure laws are there so that those in power can steal the treasure... finders should be keepers! Archeologists aren’t going to learn sh!t they don't already know.

“Plundering the past”? No no no….they’re the ones finding/recovering it. They deserve a percentage & a “thank you”

I like how the self righteous dude calls the guys doing it for profit greedy, bet he makes a ton of money and all his equipment is provided. He just doesn’t like the competition. IMO if it’s in international waters and unclaimed it’s free game

45:30 the propeller melted down and recycled is probably the best outcome as it at least has a use

you are doing my dreams of finding the past good luck and thank you for the great video

Incomparable in terms of tragic suffering for that time. Empress of Ireland : Hold my beer.

Bob ballard wants to re-paint the hull and the rest of the ship with anti foul paint to preserve it, the hull paint they originally used in bellfast is still doing its job which is amazing to me ! 😂

ကျေးဇူးပါဗျာ..။။

You nailed it we map the Solar System but not our oceans your living my dream thank you

I believe treasure from the seas should go to a museum but whoever found the treasure shall get rewarded dearly treasure belongs in a museum in my opinion for all to see and for our future history to teach our childrens children children and so on

Love these sorts of things 😮

awesome video i beach hunt i could never imagine!

Greed will be the end of us! Said the man with values.

If I found something it would fall under the finders keeper act!

It would be a honor to meet dr.ballor.

awesome documentary

Come to belize and explore some of the deep seas

lost tresures of of the deep good show

Does anyone know what the story turns out being behind the stone pillars and/or the rest of the ship from the 1st century BC that they find? Are they Egyptian granite? Do we have any clue how big they are or where they may have been intended for use?

I totally agree with all that dr. ballad has stated we need only to preserve all from the past to possibly learn more than we have ever known thank you dr. Ballard. u- tube film was excellent. It was a pleasure to watch.

Beautiful video

very good work

Semding. Support.. nice. Good. Job...

I really find it hard to believe the dates with this kind of excavations the Titanic is almost disappearing after only 110 years(Iron & bronze)while they claim to have found clay items from 1500years!!!!!!😮😮😮

The value of the archaeology is in the ship itself. Any treasure or salvage should go to the finder who took all the risk both financial and personal. The government's going to tax it as income anyway.

AMAZING

" we are not treasure hunters, we are looking for historic wrecks" yes I believe you but other would call it BS.

This is really a romantic adventure.

Finding the shallower parts of the med with little current you would think be the first to check,I wouldn't fancy being so deep for so long in that little sub

That man definitely killed his son when he found out he found the boat.

If there are billions in treasure on the bottom of our seas ..sadly they can no longer help the dead ..but think what a difference this amount could making to the living around the world to help get them out of poverty !

i"m very much in favor of recovering artifacts and riches from the oceans of the world. Whether it"s done by a treasure hunter for personal gain or by an archeologist; it"s of no difference to me other than to say that the hunter will put it all back into circulation while the archeologist will document and then store out of view the bulk of the items never to be seen but by a few...excepting those pieces he salts away for himself, that is.

Please…. Monitor the volume of the background music. It’s very distracting. Thanks

amazing

The question that comes to mind is, Why are there multiple shipwrecks in such a small area? What really made these ships sink. Too many to be a coincidence. Sea monster? Pirates? Bermuda Triangle type situation? What really happened?

Bob Ballard is a great American.

PERSONAL GREED seems to be what is running these type of people. Where people died that's where it needs to stop. But if your walking a Rivver wit lots of water and you suddenly decide to sit down and play with the rocks and you suddenly come across a piece of Gold then that's the best way to find it

A arte do vidro é muito antiga. O fogo era feito com maçaricos de bio gás e insuflados em pressão constante com tecnologia de gravidade e pesos. O vidro era produzido e moldado e a cor era dada com aditivos minerais específicos. Câmaras de bio gás eram feitas com argila e betume na rocha e os dutos eram de couro com betume . O fogo era controlado com bicos de ossadas de animais . E a fornalha era feita com vários maçaricos. Era assim que os antigos faziam jóias e objetos de luxo ( ourivesaria e pratarias e engastes ) antes do Egito e antes de Abraão existir . Quando Moisés saiu do Egito, essas tecnologias já existiam.

The Pandora box was his crew looking for the captains 👛 safe

7:30 lol We would hardly think that there would be any people preserved. Pretty sure that sea life would have ate what they could

Bob Ballard is worth millions. He gained fame and profited off his discoveries just like any other Salvor would have. The difference is, Salvors usually don't put on an Holier than though act in front of the cameras. They are upfront and honest about wanting the treasure to enrich themselves. Instead of gold and gems, Bob Ballard gets checks for Biography, TV Episodes, Documentaries and Movies.

❤❤❤❤

The reason to salvage the propellers cause theirs huge money in brass that hasn’t been radiated in the nuclear age

Some are there to plunder the past...others are there to preserve it for a nice fee! lol

All who are involved with deep-sea salvage are gaming.

If we never called ships unsinkable the titanic wouldnt be sitting at the bottom! 😂

Carthage is in North Africa. There was trade between Romans and Africans until the city was destroyed.

Wow You Are Right daling..... credit Akkoord zelf bepalen Daling

But do think actual wrecks should be left along with the deceased…

Personal items like rings pocket watches and other items in that category should be returned to living relatives for keep sakes and family heirlooms

It's unbeliavable how government allow this at first, ofc because of their greed

Man I do feel bad for the titanic guys but that the same time, all that gold and necklaces and jewelry that one guy found were also peoples belongings and stuff so seems like fair game🤷‍♂️

I think treasures should be a finders keepers deal but if the finders don't take care to document the site they should be liable to cover cost for someone else to for it to be legit they should try and learn as much as we can from it for example the origin cargo place of origin etc govt should have to follow the SE rules as preserving history is more important than money even if it goes to govt tho I'd agree with a taxing treasure I wouldn't like it if I hit motherload but it's fair for all parties

If someone drops a $100 by the side of the road and abandons it, no one questions the "finders keepers" principle. If gold is left in the sunken ocean somehow it becomes untouchable artifacts?

Two points if the American navy is involved and you go somewhere where nobody has a claim that in itself rings alarm bells to me

Maybe not salt water as opposed to fresh water, I wonder if anyone has found finger prints on objects from boat wrecks.

the 400000 dollars in treasure is actually below 10 million

Egypt, Greece, Rome and Carthage

Regarding the Titanic and technological innovation, particularly in the field of imaging systems /.software & applied forensic sciences, could evidence contrary to the cause stated as having sunk the Titanic be detected, "if such evidence" existed that is?

One real documentary, who believes that Titanic can never be built again?

This back ground music is way too loud

It is possible to dowse for gold on water from a boat. Read the book, The Art of dowsing - Separating Science from Superstition, for explanation of all the physics used in dowsing and how to build the modern light weight ball bearing dowsing rod, which accurately deciphers and gauges what is being dowsed, by pitting the energy of gravity against the energizing of the one-tenth ounce dowsing rod load that is attached at a predetermined location on the ELEVATED acetylene welding rod of the dowsing rod, for precise dowsing of all edges, exact center, depth buried with angle of deposition, and most important GRADING of the sought element contained in the elemental mass being dowsed. Become a professional dowser by practicing the book's dowsing lessons of buried pipelines and cables, tunnels and voids, precious metal placer and lode deposits, dowsing for treasure, dowsing for any element, amplified dowsing from a moving vehicle, and dowsing on water from a boat. Thank you for reading this post and have a safe, healthy, good day.

Nice .. the guy says it isn't for the "treasure" and never should be . That's awesome they didn't make a dime and was for only glory

Yes Very funey home studie You Vedio Thanks credit akkoord

OK👍

This video appears to be a hit piece against the treasure salvers, a vailed dig against them. I’m pretty sure Mel Fisher had an archaeologist on his expedition and the fate of the Atocha fleet was well documented back in Spain. And it was not an ancient shipwreck. And these governments and archaeologists were sitting on their tails and not giving a damn about the wreck while Mr Fisher spent 16 years of his life searching and losing a son in the search! But when big money is discovered, they all come out of the woodwork!

A good docco spoiled by a louder than necessary audio

The true treasure of the deep is found in the CSS Alabama and Birkenhead, England. You have got to believe it is there.

A U.S Navy vessels out looking for treasure in the ocean… So the government decides the difference between “plundering” and “preservation” 👌.

I like Ballard's position it's just a shame that he didn't claim it out of respect for the Dead knowledge is power and now he knows that other little person who did claim and he saw a rat if you want to know about these artifacts my God look at them in a book is it necessary to do all that I mean look at those people who still did they have off session with the Titanic the Titanic and they asses died in a little bitty submarine it looks like something you put in your kids bathtub water and it imploded I mean they paid all that money for watery death OMG

if just a guardian then can be took

Tallest, smart move, someone was going to do it. Should of claimed it.

Anyone seen Uranus😮

Show me there house,car and how they live and then I can tell you if they do this for profit or for history

Most people like me gets a million dollars. Just wants to set back and enjoy it. We don't have the Greed for more and more

Money> is MADE TO SPEND!

If u find something dont let the government find out.

v interesting program, not enhanced by the presence of unnecessary music. Shame

Music is to loud 😢

That’s the stupidest thing I’ve heard. “Seeing these objects well help us better understand what happened.” And to think we deserve to keep the objects with us? That guy we’ll keep telling himself that to make him not feel like a dumb ass for bringing that stuff to surface. As far as I’m concerned he went in after the guy who found it first. Made it seem like he thought it was his and he could do whatever he wants with the objects.

music is too dam loud at times it over powers voice information

I'm just flabbergasted that the first man respectively left the Titanic alone then her comes this other jerk and he says he'll never sell the artifacts but have them in a museum the Bible says Let the dead bury the dead what is this fascination that people have with the Titanic I mean like I let those people rest in peace go to Denver go see the Molly Brown house which is now a museum she was one of the original survivors of the Titanic Manor so greedy by Nature I suppose

Artifacts do no good lost.If you find it you should be able to keep it. Governments have no business controlling finds.

Wow. That POS "claiming" the Titanic as his own and taking whatever the hell he wanted from it, is just bs! Greed makes me sick and there's a special place in Hell for the people who abuse it.
