00:00The island that disappeared. What if I told you there was once an island that vanished without a trace?
00:05The island of Bamaia was there for centuries, and then, poof, it wasn't.
00:09I sailed there last year, chasing an old journal my grandfather left behind.
00:13He circled the island in red on this map.
00:15Lot 2233N, long 9122W.
00:20The sea turned quiet as we neared.
00:21Too quiet? No birds, no wind.
00:24Then the compass spun and the GPS died, and we saw something.
00:27Not land, not water, just a shimmer.
00:30The crew begged me to turn back.
00:32One guy jumped overboard.
00:34I kept going.
00:35I had to know why Grandpa never came home.
00:37And now I get it, Bamaia didn't disappear, it remembers.
00:39And it only lets one person leave the island alive.
00:42The one who brings someone to take their place.
