World's Biggest Treasure Hunt

Published: Sept. 20, 2021, 4 a.m.

Today, we're going on one of the biggest treasure hunts in history. There's something very special about this treasure hunt though.

It was created by Forrest Fenn – an art dealer and author in the US – and unlike the treasure hunts you might read of in books or see in movies, he was very much alive and giving out clues.

No pirates here... Just a stash of goodies worth thousands of dollars.

It's the last episode of Mysteries of Science but don't worry, we'll be back with a new season very soon. 

Until then... Stay curious.
