I think the problem is if Colombia doesnt at least provide a $100 million dollars in finders fee to the group that found it, this will probably set a precendent to other treasure hunters not to work with the governments and go to private businesses instead.
The problem is Americans saying they want the money. The United States doesn't have any extradition laws for financial crimes committed in foreign countries.
The tricky part is the wreck lies exclusively inside Columbian coast, and not the high sea, which make it hard for anyone to claim finder fees if they (the Columbian government) is not offering any. If these ship wreck group really did found it first and pass on those info before collecting...this is probably a very stupid thing to do. Either way, they wouldn't be able to salvage it if the wreck lies in Columbian waters..
you people have real listening comprehension problems. the coordinates were provided in exchange for 50%. they signed an agreement in exchange for the information. they never claimed it was outside of Colombian waters.
Exactly, if Columbia doesn't pay for the coordinators then future finds won't be brought to governments and made available to museums or scientists instead they'll go to private collections.
@imtryinghere1 well, first we don't know if such agreement exist. It could be or could not be. We don't know. Second, If this wreck really does lies within Columbia, then even if they had an agreement it wouldn't work, because you would still need to seek permission from Columbia to salvage it, if you salvage zero, then 50% of 0 is still 0...and US will not have any jurisdiction on this unless they invade Columbia, so if you want to sue, you need to do it in a Columbian court, well good luck on that. If there were EVER an agreement, the smart way to play is you don't give them the coord BEFORE you get the pay. If you had the coordinate you would know it's in Columbia and you loses all leverage and you know that coord is the only leverage...
True. Professionals in the industry are losing the incentive to share details on findings with governments. It’s going to put the brakes on discovery (some governments already make it hard enough to receive licensure)
Apparently part of the problem is that the private company (Sea Search Armada) had found a debris field but didn't find a ship. In the 90's the Colombian government couldn't find any shipwreck near the coordinates provided by SSA. The wreck of the San José wasn't found until 2015. It's not even clear - at least publicly - if the debris that Sea Search Armada found in the 80's is from this ship. Plenty of other ships were sunk in that area, and like I mentioned, they couldn't find a wreck before when SSA gave them coordinates of a debris field. So the government's claims may be valid. We don't have enough info.
That ship belongs to me, my father was the captain of the ship, so Im claiming all the riches, I have a salvage company who will recover everything and I'll split 50-50.

Recovered sunken treasure isn't the market it once was."
Private company: "If we find the shipwreck, let's split 50% and 50%. Let's sign this contract". Colombian gov: "sure let's do it". *Private company finds the treasure Private company: "Ok lets split the treasure per our contract". Colombian gov: *swallows contract. "What contract?".

Spain shouldn’t even get to see it , let alone show them off. It should be allocated back to the South Americas countries. For the betterment of their peoples .
It depends. If they were stolen treasure, then yes, Spain should not get even one cents from this. But if that is a colonial tax, then they should have a share, law of colonial tax is allowed even today (for example 14 African countries still paying colonial tax to france) and also US unincorporated territories (such as Guam and Puerto Rico) are still paying US federal government taxes, even tho they were under a separate tax jurisdiction.

There is something missing here. The private American company hired by the Colombian government in the 90’s gave other coordinates that were proven to be wrong later on. The actual location of the shipwreck was found by the Colombian navy with support of some European scientists like 7 years ago.
Spain should get it, their ship their treasure. Colombia will just distribute it among a few elitists in the government and buy kids and cocaine with it.
Of course! When it comes to a treasure worth billions, lost at sea, I'm sure there will be all kinds of discrepancies and contradictions in everyone's story 😂
If it’s worth $20B today, imagine what it was worth in 1708. Why would they put that much money on a battle ship that could literally end up on the bottom of the ocean floor ?
It is WELLLLLLL documented that Sea Search Armada found this treasure and gave Colombia the coordinates in exchange for half, when recovered. Therefore, they should absolutely get half.

In general the Colombians take really good care of their waters, almost twice the size of Colombias land terrain. They would be able to get lots of oil sea drilling from their waters near Venezuelas
This treasure belongs to the South America indigenous peoples who should be accurately traced and who should rightfully benefit. Not greedy colonizing countries, greedy countries, or politicians who want to continue destroying indigenous populations and their resources.
A Spanish ship sank, in Columbian waters, and Columbia gets to claim it, and might "loan" it to Spain. I'm assuming, therefor, that if you spin out on an icy road and end up in my yard, I now own your car?
The wealth of this wreck has been reported for a long time. It was known at the time of sinking. You're talking gold greed-heads, down to the last gram.
They don't clarify whether it's worth 20 billion based on the current price of non historical gold, or if the historical aspect of the gold makes it worth that much money as a "collectible" coin, jewelry or whatever.
just put it in a museum so i can see nice pictures of the history i swear if it ends all hidden in someone’s palace, that’d be a lame move, but i guess i’m not swimming down there
Historically, these gold coins belong to the indigenous people and their descendants of the western hemisphere, especially those from Colombia and South America who were forced to mine the gold in the first place.
If the treasure originated in Columbia then it has the ownership rights but if they originated from other countries then they should have rights too. Since Spain lost it after stealing it they have no rights.
John 14:6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. 1 Corinthians 15:3 that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures. Romans 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 🌎

Nah, it'll be $5M when they raise it. Things will mysteriously "disappear" along the way.
😂😂😂
Meanwhile I'm drinking my Colombian coffee water this video.
The team that retrieves the treasure should keep a percentage and some should be put in a museum. Simple as that.
they should be given the value in money, these are South American heritage artifacts and should all be in a museum
@@lucas9269well maybe since the treasure is found, they should be the ones to retrieve it as well.
Video: The location a closely guarded secret
Me: Could it possibly be somewhere off the coast of Cartagena? 🤔😆
He wants his cut badly.
i like how they are fighting for stolen goods
I recognize that part of the ocean. I know exactly where the treasure is.
So get your snorkel and fins and go get it !
20 Billion dollars. Let the greedy people start fighting
I found a large cache of gold coins. I kept my mouth shut and Im still reaping the benefits of my good fortune. 😊
This is some modern-day Pirates of the Caribbean shenanigans. Waiting for someone to swing in on a rope and snatch something from that guy at the podium.
It belongs to the people of Spain ! That’s who it was intended for ! That’s who I belongs to
In general the Colombians take really good care of their waters, almost twice the size of Colombias land terrain. They would be able to get lots of oil sea drilling from their waters near Venezuelas
I am a descendant of the sunken ship
Things that old should be displayed for everyone to appreciate.
There's tourism profits, etc... but we can all share.
FREE BRITNEY!
This treasure belongs to the South America indigenous peoples who should be accurately traced and who should rightfully benefit. Not greedy colonizing countries, greedy countries, or politicians who want to continue destroying indigenous populations and their resources.
Let's be honest, it belongs to spongebob squarepants now.
So what? You know how long ago that was, or how property rights work internationally?
Whoever can dive down there without Imploding , ... it's theirs !
@@VirusForPrezit’ll probably disappear in the pockets of corrupt officials. No common citizen will see a cent
Newsflash. They died centuries ago.
Colombia should keep it. Especially if it was first stolen by Spain. Call it reparations.
@@Cruck10 colombia was created by Spain
A Spanish ship sank, in Columbian waters, and Columbia gets to claim it, and might "loan" it to Spain.
I'm assuming, therefor, that if you spin out on an icy road and end up in my yard, I now own your car?
The car wasn't theirs in the first place 👍
Spain stole it from Natives and killed Natives . Spaniards use Natives as slaves to findd that gold ..so this gold belong to colombia
@@Cr1z_R It was
Nathan drake, sully and the whole uncharted series got me ready for this moment right here
its probably worth 1B. how do you know its 20B. good way to catch everyone's attention
The wealth of this wreck has been reported for a long time. It was known at the time of sinking. You're talking gold greed-heads, down to the last gram.
They don't clarify whether it's worth 20 billion based on the current price of non historical gold, or if the historical aspect of the gold makes it worth that much money as a "collectible" coin, jewelry or whatever.
😂😂😂
Spain was the biggest looter back in the days.
This treasure belongs to the descendants of the indigenous people from whom it was stolen.
Thank you for your acknowledgement
Gold originally came from stars
You mean the actual
Colombians , are the natives mixed with Spanish descendants
no it belongs to a muesum end of
it's about time.
Good for Colombia, hopefully the money goes to improving life for the people of the country.
no they belong to a museum end of
just put it in a museum so i can see nice pictures of the history
i swear if it ends all hidden in someone’s palace, that’d be a lame move, but i guess i’m not swimming down there
The gold should be divided to all countries , Colombia, Ecuador and Peru. For sure . Company that found it should have part of.
And also the republic of mabank'account.
Population: me ;)
This will turn into a battle, and eventually a movie, with much blood shed over greed gold.
Historically, these gold coins belong to the indigenous people and their descendants of the western hemisphere, especially those from Colombia and South America who were forced to mine the gold in the first place.
their form the incas?
Most of the gold is from Peru. Columbia was just the port that launched the ships into the Atlantic.
I can hear all of the pirates from the afterlife: "Arrrr" "Arrrrgh" "RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR" "rrrrRRRR Mate'y"
Historically, it's pretty interesting. If Columbia gets it all, hope its for the benefit of its ppl
haha your funny......
Finders keepers.
20 bilions?,yeah sure...
Why can't they try to clean up the garbage in the ocean if they can do this?
It belongs to Columbia it's in their Waters and its comes from their Land
If the treasure originated in Columbia then it has the ownership rights but if they originated from other countries then they should have rights too. Since Spain lost it after stealing it they have no rights.
I’m Roman and I want my coins that were found in Europe.
He is salivating at getting HIS hands on this money. His hands only.
John 14:6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
1 Corinthians 15:3 that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures.
Romans 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 🌎
I don't like the Romans; they took over too many countries.
Wouldn't that treasure belong to the british since they won the battle?
Its the One Piece
Ya-yo Ya-yo!
