More likely it was something they considered dangerous as hell that needed to kept from mankind for all eternity.

It's a great mystery, but shitty reality TV. Might as well be the show about bigfoot, because they have about the same chance of finding something.
What I don't understand is, it really shouldn't be impossible to dig up. You'd think they could block off the water. I really think if anything was ever down there, someone got it already and kept quiet so they could A)keep it all for themselves and/or B)keep the legend alive for future profit. Either that or there isn't shit down there and there never was. The issue I have with it is that a lot of the legend is anecdotal. Where is the original stone with the strange letters carved on it? What about the slabs of wood and whatever that they found at certain intervals? Surely those were kept? I feel there could be a lot of bullshit involved in this.
