    An Ice Age was coming, maybe a Little Ice Age. Is that why they went south, climate change, or just weather changed?

    That dude does mind, he minds A LOT. You know a lot of people go into those mountains and never come out. He was throwing out some serious killer vibes

    I wonder how can people speak any complements about a cannibalic demon worshipping nation? And their child eating emperor….

    History says Montezuma traveled from Utah with a load of gold based on a spirit vision he traveled to Mexico City where he butchered 40,000 Indians and enslave the rest and dug up even more gold for his coltish empire and then in fulfillment of ancient prophecy they welcomed Cortez on the shores of the beach but their friendship soon went sour when the greedy murderous Spaniards kept demanding more so Montezuma fled to his ancestral Homeland. And what’s also omitted from history books is a fact when the Spanish defeated the Moors they got the maps in the stories of all the history and minds of North America and they’d been here before! So so your interpretation story seems very regurgitated cartoonish and a grand dies like an advertisement. Anyway that’s all

    The treasure is Mayan. Not Aztec

    This losers think they’re going to find Moctezuma’s gold in USA

  10. Buzz Kincaid on August 21, 2022 at 12:33 pm

    Montezuma has a legacy alright, Montezuma’s revenge , don’t drink the water

  11. oz sala on August 21, 2022 at 12:37 pm

    Why are you looking for gold can you answer how the Incas Aztecs Mayans Incas died after Spaniards came brought their diseases into a clean environment. There’s no gold it’s just bad TV this is a disappointment and Discovery channel. Let’s see if the Mexican cartel let these self proclaim explorers pull gold out of Mexico what would be the great outcome of that

  12. Jose Quintero on August 21, 2022 at 12:39 pm

  15. Pshe Val on August 21, 2022 at 12:41 pm

  16. Powerlifterusa on August 21, 2022 at 12:45 pm

  17. axe six on August 21, 2022 at 12:46 pm

    When the emperor was caught, he was tortured really bad because they wanted his treasures but only told them that there was a treasure to keep them looking for it their whole life

  18. Guadalupe Chavarria on August 21, 2022 at 12:47 pm

    Human Nature/Animal Nature is ALWAYS take the (Esiest Way out).
    The Gold is placed in a pit, Buried and a Large Boulder placed over it NEARBY. THIS is where I would begin searching. J. Terran author of ANCIENT MYSTERIES REVEALED.

  28. Diego Medina on August 21, 2022 at 1:03 pm

    It’s MOCTEZUMA not MONTEZUMA hahaha, Thanks for spreading to the world the amazing history behind the Aztecs and the crazy and amazing stuff around them! Greetings from Mexico, I totally love this channel!

  29. Jose Diosdado on August 21, 2022 at 1:04 pm

    You want to find montezumas gold go to Spain and you’ll find it

  30. Carlos A.N on August 21, 2022 at 1:04 pm

    The Mexicas did not escape from combat. Many Mexica families left but the Mexica warriors that hid the gold were placed in the frontlines and took the secret to the grave. There is only a few Mexicans who actually know where this goal is located…. and they are those who understand the ancient Aztec riddle.

  31. Reggie Rendon on August 21, 2022 at 1:05 pm

    Mocteczuma, knew the greed of the caxtiltecas, the blood traitors who helped fight against the Mexicas, were rewarded by having their hearts carved out.

    So check this out. I’m glad this video mentions Freemont natives. BECAUSE – back in the early 2000s . Utah was building what’s called TRAX which is an inner city train like a subway. When they were building the platform downtown for this train, they unearthed one of the biggest Freemont living spaces ever discovered and instead of reporting it they buried it under the train platform. All that remains now is a plaque on the train platform that says exactly this.

  35. David Lopez on August 21, 2022 at 1:07 pm

    Good it will never be found

  36. Steven Wolinak on August 21, 2022 at 1:07 pm

    That’s a spanish tale of montezuma?? Was holy roman empire funded them ,, convert or die , die they did and vatican got a great % of that Gold !! Use wisdom

  37. Viet Breeder on August 21, 2022 at 1:13 pm

    Search for Stylianos Atteshlis, he is the reincarnation of Montezuma. He said that the king had made a deal with the Spanish that if he give them all the gold, they would leave the aztec in peace. But Cortez betrayed his promise and killed Montezuma after being lead to the vault by the King.

  38. Candace Gregorian on August 21, 2022 at 1:14 pm

    Just curious can you use metal detectors or gpr to see if gold is present?

  39. leonel martinez on August 21, 2022 at 1:14 pm

    Montezuma gold is all in Spain, those Spaniards were torturing and murdering anybody who didn’t tell them where the gold was.
    Montezuma himself got tortured and burned by Cortez men to get information from him.
    Superstition mountains is not even connected to Aztecs. Those mountains are apache mountains. Bunch of nonsense!

  40. Ali Rott on August 21, 2022 at 1:14 pm

    Montezuma‘s treasure ,a good majority of it anyways…Is in the Capitain Mountain Range in southern New Mexico.
    Seek it. You will find nothing but misery.

  41. urbex dave uk on August 21, 2022 at 1:16 pm

    This gold belongs to Native Mexican people it’s their heritage

  42. Alvaro Solano on August 21, 2022 at 1:17 pm

    The Spaniards stole just about all of our gold hopefully we can get it back thieves

  43. Brandon Todd on August 21, 2022 at 1:17 pm

    josh minds and minds a lot, the treasure hunter says there’s no gold there but he there, and doesn’t want anyone touching the gold he’s finding there, history channel does a documentary there, has to come up with something to detour more people from coming and searching

  44. tomsgraphics on August 21, 2022 at 1:18 pm

    That was so theoretical and not very conclusive in anyway. Good click bate title.

  45. Efren Lozoya on August 21, 2022 at 1:20 pm

    On June 30 1520 as the Spaniards were retreating to Tlaxcala after La Noche Triste, soldiers that had plundered the gold dropped it to save their lives. Probably now lies under millions of tons of concrete in Mexici City.

  46. fire stander man77 on August 21, 2022 at 1:22 pm

    Aztecs fled to Canada

  47. Catlife on August 21, 2022 at 1:23 pm

    Antelope Island has places that look like a fortress was destroyed…I think the mormans found the treasure and destroyed the land claim so nobody would bother them…

  48. Spudnik Holy Ghost roller on August 21, 2022 at 1:23 pm

    Have you ever heard of GGPA the 2 main owners that started it they found on one of the military bases either in Arizona or New Mexico they were out there prospecting and they ran across a like land mark. That turned out to be a very big stash of Spanish Gold they had a big diesel vacuum truck the tunnel was full of sand after they got down there they found many millions of dollars in gold.

  49. Winona shawana on August 21, 2022 at 1:25 pm

    He is right they could be as far as up to Canada in those days descendants
