The Dutch were the first Europeans to explore Australia in 1606 but many of their vessels lay wasted at the bottom of the ocean. The narrator and his team search for sunken treasure ships, including one carrying 60,000 ounces of gold, which disappeared in 1853.

    Sorry when he says at 47:30 that the assination of William of Orange was the cause for the thirty year war, that is totally wrong. It was because Fredrick IV of the Pfalz and his wife Elizabeth Stuart took the Bohemian crown, which rightfully belonged to Emporer Ferdinand II that started the thirty year war. The bit with the Dutch and the Spanish was the eighty years war,

      I'm wondering why after lifting the helmet out of the mud he did NOT later show us what it looked like after the mud had been washed off of it. It was probably placed there for the show. AND, if he does not respond to these doubts of it being found there and not planted there, then that means it was WAS planted there to fool us.

    Have a look at the story of Mrs. Wilson, 1890 (something I think think) ,who, stranded on Lizard Island, north east of Cooktown, with 2 kids while her seaman husband was off, attempted to escape, under pressure from indigenous people who had an annual religious ceremony there. She launched a water tank, square riveted corner joins, dry inside, as a boat with her 2 kids.
    They were eventually stumbled upon at sea, apparently with 300 or to MM of water inside, long dead.
