00:00Searching for the Ark of the Covenant is what they call very high risk, very, very high reward.
00:06It would be the most major find in archaeology.
00:09This is that big what-if question.
00:12The Ark of the Covenant, infinite power, settled on a temporal vessel, the very throne of God.
00:21But in a moment, it was lost.
00:24All of a sudden, gone.
00:25What happened to one of the most religiously significant objects?
00:33Many have searched for the Ark.
00:35Buried treasure is always going to be a very romantic and enticing story.
00:39Legends have whispered of the Ark's fate.
00:42Every legend is based on some aspect of truth.
00:45But can it be found?
00:47My goal is to put an X marks the spot for where the legends point to.
00:53Chris has investigated these legends more thoroughly than ever before.
00:59Was it hidden?
01:02Was it destroyed?
01:04The Ark of the Covenant, we know, was in Jerusalem for about 400 years.
01:10The Babylonians come and destroy Jerusalem in 586 B.C.
01:14And then it disappears.
01:17Is it possible to sift through history, myth, tradition, and discover the actual events of the past?
01:23Oftentimes, the tradition gets it right.
01:25Sometimes, tradition is way off.
01:30What do the historical sources say?
01:32Are you in the right geographical setting?
01:34Is it just a crazy coincidence?
01:38Is it possible that this is where the Ark of the Covenant was hidden?
01:42Trying to locate with an X on the ground can be really difficult.
01:46These legends are pointing to that hope that the story is not yet over.
01:53To find the Ark, you must immerse yourself in the legends.
01:59But will the Ark be found?
02:05In the freaking risk.
02:08The Ark of the Covenant
02:09Congratulations.
02:09This universe is pure.
