Craig Tester Breaks Silence: “The Oak Island Treasure Is A HOAX!”

From his position as one of the most important members of the treasure hunting team looking to succeed where many others had failed for more than two centuries, to the unfortunate events that may have permanently affected his desire to discover this treasure, here’s why Craig Tester breaks his silence on how the Oak Island treasure is a hoax.

For about 229 years now, there have been many who have been searching for the mysterious treasure that was rumored to be hidden on a strange spot off the south coast of Nova Scotia. This mysterious place is, of course, known as Oak Island, and for more than a decade now, we’ve been watching the Lagina brothers and their crew as they attempt to succeed where many others have failed.

One of the most integral members of this team is Craig Tester. Without him, the Lagina brothers and the Curse of Oak Island crew may not have gotten as far as they have already. Not only that, he was also on hand to help create one of the most well-recognized media franchises in the United States of America. As such, we can see how this individual is a highly functioning man who knows how to get things done.

Considering that the task at hand is to discover one of the most elusive treasures ever known to man, such an ability would definitely be handy for the treasure hunting crew. As much as Craig’s presence is crucial to the crew, things look like they’re about to change, especially after Craig had an experience that is set to change his life forever. How will this affect his ability to help the team find this elusive treasure?

Without him, we are not sure that the Curse of Oak Island TV show would be able to go on with its full authenticity. That feeling comes off when we watch these fortune-seeking people travel to the ends of the earth in the hopes that they would beat everyone to the treasure that is hidden where X marks the spot. On the Curse of Oak Island TV show, we get to watch the Lagina brothers and their team scour the entirety of Oak Island in the hopes that they may finally come across this treasure. We watch as they set out on this tasking journey and in turn learn more about the fascinating history of this place while we hope that they would succeed where many others have failed.

Until now, we have watched as the Lagina brothers came across clues as to who may have hidden this treasure on the island. For example, there have been clues that have pointed to the likes of the Knights Templar as the ones who hid the treasure on the island. Then there are the claims that the treasure must have been hidden by pirates on the island. A certain Captain Kidd seems to be the one that everyone points to when they try to give more particulars to this claim. Then there are those who believe that the treasure was hidden by Edward Teach. You may know him from Blackbeard, and apparently, this fearsome pirate is rumored to have claimed that he hid this treasure where only he and the devil could find it. Oh my!

Even the nature of the treasure is a mystery to all those fascinated by the Oak Island mystery. Some believe that the treasure may consist of ancient historical artifacts such as the Holy Grail or the Ark of the Covenant. Imagine coming across that while looking for the treasure on Oak Island?! As such, one can see how the many mysteries of Oak Island don’t necessarily help these treasure hunters with their search. That said, the lack of information does seem to keep the enthusiasts in a state of anticipation for the next bit of information that makes its way to them. Well, maybe until they got the information about the curse that may be linked to the treasure.

Apparently, there is a curse on the treasure which says that it would never be found. That said, it is believed that the only way that the curse would be lifted is when seven men lose their lives in the search for this treasure. Well, it’s been reported that six men have already lost their lives searching for this treasure in the course of the 229 years that they have been searching for it. Who knows…

Either way, all this information was given a new perspective thanks to Craig Tester. Using his engineering skills, which he got thanks to his background in, you guessed it, engineering, he was able to help the team with their search by giving them a significant amount of additional technical expert information. Although he initially began his role in the group of treasure hunters as a band member that worked behind the scenes, his technical know-how eventually led to his rise as one of the most important members of the team.

One of the other vital abilities that Craig brought to the team was his unique ability to tell a great story. This storytelling ability proved to mark a major point in the narrative: the search for the treasure on the island. As such, one can see how he evolved from just being one of the cast members on the show to taking roles as a producer for them. It only made sense that it happened, especially as it allowed him to combine his technical skills with the narrative elements of the show. That way, the audience will be able to benefit from his technical expertise while also enjoying their treasure hunting aspects of the show.

For example, the engineering skills that we mentioned earlier proved to be quite useful in the course of the show. Without them, we’re not sure that the crew would have been able to overcome some of the problems that presented themselves thanks to Oak Island’s weather and stubborn topography. He did this by leading the team through many of the excavation projects that they set off on while searching for the treasure. This in turn led to the discovery of the truths behind some of the many secrets that are being hidden by this island.

As such, one can see how the team must acknowledge the depth and knowledge that Craig Tester brings to the table. His mere presence alone increases the efficiency experienced in the team’s operations. Aside from this, his commitment to carrying out research on Oak Island shows us that he is a dedicated professional and that he is a passionate explorer, something that is shared with most, if not all, of the members of this treasure hunting team. With Craig on the team, the Curse of Oak Island crew has been able to remain resolute in the face of the many successes and failures that they had experienced while searching for the treasure that is believed to be hidden on this island. As such, his presence has helped push on with the search for the treasure on this island.

Things took an interesting turn for Craig and the search for this treasure on Oak Island during season five of the Curse of Oak Island TV show. This was a point in time when a strange and surprising theory concerning the hidden treasure was developed. Shocking and surprising to everyone that heard it, it was something that also seemed to leave fans and enthusiasts in a state of amazement and excitement.

Think about this; many islands all over the planet are fascinating because they have more than just historical artifacts and treasures that are waiting to be discovered there. That said, none of them have links to unreleased versions of Shakespeare’s plays buried there. Well, it turns out that during the fifth season of the Curse of Oak Island documentary series, the team came across some material that was hidden in the earth. Excited about their discovery, they immediately took the materials to a lab on the mainland so that it could be analyzed. Once the experts at the lab examined it, they were able to determine that it was made of leather and that it seemed to have some components that were similar to parchment.

Considering the evidence, some of the members of the team came to the conclusion that these materials may have made up some sort of old bookbinding. When he heard this, Craig’s mind was drawn to the Shakespeare Theory, and he didn’t hesitate to let the team know what was on his mind. In his mind, he believed that they may actually have a chance to find some authentic leaf version of the supposed parchment. This would undoubtedly be quite valuable to the team. If this particular legend about the mysterious treasures of Oak Island was true, then it may actually be true that priceless original folio versions of Shakespeare’s plays may actually be hidden on the island. If they could find these ‘parchments,’ maybe they could even prove if these works were actually written by him, or they could confirm that these works were actually written by Francis Bacon, the man that some people claimed to have been the real author behind many of Shakespeare’s great works.

This theory that some of Shakespeare’s unpublished works may be hidden as part of the treasure of Oak Island is supported by the fact that the first editions of Shakespeare’s plays were apparently published there on the island. Considering this, the treasure hunting community of Oak Island was forced to depart from the road well-traveled so that they could ponder on the possibility of this theory. Could there actually be a real connection between this mysterious island located many miles away from England and the greatest playwright that ever picked up a feathered pen?

Think about it; the possibility of finding first edition works of William Shakespeare is difficult enough. As such, the notion that Shakespeare’s works may be one of the final links to the treasure that may be hidden on Oak Island may be one that is too difficult to swallow. That said, it cannot be denied that this theory adds a dimension of cultural and intellectual value to the good work that these treasure hunters were trying to achieve on Oak Island. At the very least, it takes away some of the criticism that comes from those who claim that these guys are only in this treasure hunt for the wealth that it may offer.

Although nobody could have seen Craig coming up with his theory, it does remind us that one needs to keep on their toes if they were going to involve themselves with the treasure hunting mystery of Oak Island. Although fans have been used to speculating about the possibility that this treasure may have been hidden on the island by pirates or powerful military organizations, or that the treasure may consist of ancient historical artifacts, now they have to contend with the fact that this treasure that may be hidden on the island may also be something that may be related to some intellectual property.

Of course, this is not the only theory that has had its own share of coverage on the show. After all, if the theorists can speculate that the treasure was hidden by powerful organizations or that it may consist of ancient artifacts, it is also possible to speculate that the treasure may even be of a more symbolic nature. Considering all the information that has been gathered from the investigations, one could argue that there may actually be no treasure at all.

Such a notion might have been dismissed in the past, but Craig has actually lent some credence to this possibility with the following thoughts that he shared. With all the theories and evidence that have been examined in the course of the show, Craig appears to be of the opinion that the possibility of a hidden treasure is a long shot.

If you’ve watched the Curse of Oak Island, then you’d be familiar with the fact that the Lagina brothers have consistently come across many strange artifacts and enigmatic clues while searching for the hidden treasure. Although these clues may have given rise to new theories and perspectives on the treasure hunt, they do not necessarily add up to a full-fledged treasure that one could find at the end of a rainbow. In fact, they may not add up to any treasure at all.

If that is the case, then it makes sense that there might be other possibilities that could explain the strange discoveries that the team has made. For example, maybe there is no treasure on the island after all. What if the clues and artifacts were meant to be the result of someone’s attempt to create a false lead? What if the search for the treasure was never really meant to be successful in the end?

Craig’s opinions on the show seem to suggest that there might actually be a possibility that the treasure may not exist at all. If there’s no treasure, then all the search operations that have been conducted might have been carried out in vain. As such, his thoughts might suggest that the clues, secrets, and mysteries of Oak Island have led them to a cul-de-sac, or, in more straightforward terms, that they are actually searching for something that was never really there. This is of course based on the evidence, or lack thereof, that has been presented on the show.

All this means that despite all the hard work and dedication that Craig and the rest of the crew have put into the treasure hunt, they may have been misled into believing that there was actually something to be found on Oak Island. This would obviously be a disappointing outcome for anyone who has invested their time and resources into the search. This theory, though, doesn’t necessarily detract from the value of the exploration or the historical interest that Oak Island has provided. It does however suggest that the search might have been based on something that was never really there to begin with.

As such, Craig’s perspective might come as a surprising revelation to those who have followed the Oak Island saga closely. It serves as a reminder that the search for lost treasure, while fascinating and exciting, may not always lead to the discovery of the valuable artifact or riches that are expected. Even if the Oak Island treasure is a hoax, the journey and the stories that come out of it continue to captivate the imagination of many.
