(upbeat music) (engine revs) (sighs) - What's up, Feed? Hey, bud, why don't you go ahead and park this? Good catch. - Don't scratch her. - Hello and welcome to... What's the show called, again? - BuzzFeed Unsolved Post Mortem. - That's what it was. BuzzFeed Unsolved: Post Mortem. We're gonna answer some questions that you guys had about the episode, I think. Oh yeah. - What are we talking about? - We're talking about the treasure hunt. Oh, man. Bummer we missed out on that. - Yeah, could have used some extra walking around money, you know what I'm talking about? - Yeah, we could've used some extra walking around money for sure. Maybe some extra little save-away funds. But you know, you can't win 'em all. Anyways, we're answering questions about Forrest Fenn. We got them from these social media accounts. You know, FB, IG... - Follow and subscribe. - YT. - Whatever, who cares? - You know what the deal is, right? You've watched this show before, I assume. - They've seen it. - Okay. Why don't we jump into these Q's, huh? - Yeah, sure. - All right, uh, TJ, how does my hair look? - Be truthful with him, TJ. - Now this comes from Barbara May on YouTube. "For the Post Mortem: could it have been possible "that the blaze was the water in the falls? "Could be white if it's rushing, but not necessarily white. "And that the box was behind the waterfall "where it was wet but not technically in the water. "I also believe he could have hiked down there with the box. "Remember, he didn't have the bring it uphill "because he left it there." - Sounds dangerous, I gotta be honest. - Yeah, yeah. - I gotta be honest. - You know, I mean, I considered when I was out there that maybe the blaze would be the rushing white of this waterfall. - You did say that. - I said that. I remember you said, "I would consider that this might be "the rushing white of the waterfall." When I said, "I'll consider it." - I did consider. Ultimately, it didn't matter what I considered or what I thought out there because we didn't find the treasure. (laughs) You know? - Yeah, we didn't find it. - I'm serious, we didn't find it. - What other white blazes could it have been? - I mean, I've seen a lot of things out there. There's a couple more Q's here that talk about this blaze. Everyone seems to want to know what the blaze is. Take a number. Everyone wants to know what this is. If we knew, we'd have the treasure and we wouldn't be here right now, you know? - Yeah. Why would we be here if we had the treasure? That's something you gotta... - You gotta think about that for a second. - You gotta think about that. Let's go to 'gram town. Here's from Itscheryllll. "I had a feeling you guys were really close." Sweet of you. "Would you guys ever try hunting for this treasure again, "or hunting treasure again in general?" I gotta say, I think we got a knack for it. - Yeah, I mean, you know, we didn't find it this time, but I got a good feeling that we may have better luck on the next treasure hunt. - Now, for some reason, I don't feel all that compelled to go back out looking for Forrest Fenn's treasure. I don't know why. - There's no particular reason. - But, yeah, we could go check out some other treasure. There's, like, pirate treasure over there on the East coast or something. - Yeah, yeah, I think we could do something like that. - Oughta pick that up, too. - Well, we could maybe stop off on one of those islands on our flight. - That's true. - Yeah, maybe we'll try another treasure hunt. I don't see why we would need to. I feel like we proved what we needed to prove here. I think we gave it our all, we did the research, we ultimately didn't find it. - No. You know what, though? By all means, have at it. Get out there. - If anything, I think this should encourage all of you to get outdoors. - Get out there. Go looking for it. - Do the research. - First, though, be safe. Second, don't be disappointed if you don't find it. It's really about experience, right? - Indiana Jones once said, if you want to be a good archaeologist, you gotta get out of the library, okay? And that's what we did. And you know, sometimes it doesn't work out. Sorry, my bracelet keeps hitting this table. - Yeah, you gotta get used to it. - Not a bad thing to get used to, you know what I'm saying? All right, what are we doing here? Facebook? - Yeah, whatever. - Andy Smith. "Question for Post Mortem. "So what would Ricky Goldsworth do "with all that treasure, hmm? "Also, I love y'all, LMAO, you're fabbu." And there's a heart emoji. - He's laughing his ass off. - Hashtag #yaaaaass. - Laughing his ass off. (laughs) - He is laughing his ass off. - Can you imagine this guy out there laughing his ass off? - Yeah, I can imagine it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Would would Ricky Goldsworth do... What would he do with all that treasure? I gotta imagine Ricky would probably put it away in a lot of offshore accounts. He might invest it in some shady business because that's what his dealings are like. He might buy a nice suit, maybe he'll buy some rings. - A big ol' bucket of pomade. - Yeah, get a fancy car, maybe carpool to work with his pal. - Sure. Share the car. - I'm just spit-balling here. These are ideas of what he would do if he found the treasure. - But that's Ricky. - That's Ricky. I'm just plain ol' Ryan Bergara, here. So, you know, don't get fooled. I'm here, still, see? - That's a good trick. Let's hop back over to 'gram town, maybe. - Yeah. - Here's from carley_rumfelt. "Why y'all wanna die so bad?" - That's nice. - I don't want to die. I want to live forever. - I don't mind dying, you know? I've had a good life so far. - You're ready to check out? - Maybe a recent event makes me feel a little bit more ready to check out. I feel like I've accomplished a lot. - Yeah. Yeah, I guess, kill us, you know? (laughs) Hey, whatever. - Yeah, why not, you know? - It's been a pretty daring season in terms of challenging people to murder us. - For sure. And not one has come knocking on that door. - Try it now. I'm not saying I'm gonna be flanked by security guards, but give it a shot. - Hope you've been taking some of my fingerprints to get past the security gates. - I've burned mine off. - Oh, I should do that. How much is that service? - I'm wiping out my print on this Earth. I don't want people to be able to track me down, at this point. - Where'd you get it done? How much is that? - It's, like, one of those orbs that you put your fingers on. It's featured in Men in Black, which seems like fiction, but it's a real thing. You can buy them at Spencer's. - How much they run you? - Oh, just $14,000. - Oh, that's cheap. I should probably get that done. I've been thinking about getting my prints removed. - You don't want fingerprints, I'm telling you. - Okay, let's move on to YouTube. This is from Michael Gutierrez. "For Post Mortem: How about if it isn't real? "Maybe Fenn made it all just to incentivize people "to get out more. "It is possible he just wants the kids to be out of "their X-Box Playstations or whatever and walk outside. "Also, while we're here, why don't you use metal detectors? "If gold is indeed in that box of bronze, "it could have been made a bit easier to find." - (laughs) Use metal detectors. We're looking across four states, here. Yeah, sure, we'll bring a metal detector next time. What's going on here, Michael? - You know, you've gotta have a little bit of decorum, I think, when it comes to treasure hunting. I'm not gonna walk around there with some headphones and a metal detector. - You're looking like a dork. - I've already done my research. I'm a confident treasure hunter. I don't need a treasure. I don't need a metal detector. He probably uses a bazooka when he's playing Call of Duty. No class. - I've never played the game. - No class. - Is that no class? - That's no class. A noob tube. - 'Gram town, baby. Here's from Mo_rg_an_. - Oh, by the way, I gotta mention, for the metal detector, our QC team, they also asked why we didn't have a metal detector. - Everybody's a critic. - Everybody's a critic here, at the 'Feed. One of the things I won't miss, you know what I'm saying? - 'Gram town. Mo_rg_an_. "Post all of your recent purchases since filming the episode "so I can see if you guys "are spending some mad treasure cash." - No. - What's with the third degree, here? - Why would I show you what I've been purchasing... - Is it third degree or first degree? What's the expression? - I don't even know what you're talking about. I was distracted by the shine of my watch. - That's a shiny-ass watch. - It's a shiny watch. I actually just got it polished this a.m. - You paid me $14,000. (laughs) You said, "We're doing a Post Mortem today. "I'll give you $14,000 to polish my watch." And I said, "I don't need it, but sure." - And then I said, "Looks good, but do it again, please." - There you go. You do what you gotta do to make a buck in this world. But if your friend says, "I'll give you $14,000, "no make that $19,000, to polish my watch twice." - Yeah, twice. - Yeah, I'll do it. - Also, we were just asked about our receipts and purchases. I didn't realize we were being audited. - Oh, yeah, why don't you show up with a fucking warrant. - We went for a treasure hunt. They're trying to see if maybe our lifestyle changed. Personally, I balk at that. - [Shane] Same ol' boys. - I think it's preposterous. - Same ol' boys. - We're the same guys. You could split-screen this image right here. We'll give you a nice... - Look at season one. We look the same. - Rest naturally? - Yeah. - Okay, now look at that image right there next to the first image of our first Post Mortem. - [Shane] Same. - It's the mirror image. If the clothes were the same... - These spot-the-difference games are getting harder and harder. (cell phone rings) Oh, shit, hang on a sec. I gotta... Hello? Roberto! Yes, the blue one. No, I don't... - Make sure it's the triple deck. - Yeah, the triple deck? Just have it in the marina. I don't give a shit. - No, not Del Ray, I don't like that. - Malibu? - Better. - If you can't put it there, we'll pay whatever fees. I don't know anything about yachts. Just get it. Okay. In Malibu. Thank you. Unbelievable. - Um, where were we, here? For Post Mortem... This is from 'Tube town? - [Shane] Yeah, sure. - Ally Rose says, "For Post Mortem, "what was the most exciting and/or dangerous part "of searching for the treasure?" I wouldn't know because don't get scared. You know? - You heard him. Straight from the horse's mouth. (laughs) - No, it was actually... I mean, there was a couple times I did actually fall. - You did. You took quite a spill. I took quite a spill, but I landed gracefully. - You jumped over a fence. - My foot hit the fence. - And then you rolled like you were a member of Ringling Brothers Circus. - Yeah, it was great. I broke the fall like a ninja. - Yeah. - I absorbed the energy and rolled it out into the field. - TJ saw it. You saw it "Teej?" - It's pretty impressive, right? - Okay. - For TJ that was high. - Got a rave review. That's a rave review from the "Teej" monster. - That's the first time I've seen his teeth in years. - It was pretty bonkers. Except when he bares them like an angry dog. - Except when he bares them like an angry dog or wolf. - Quite a spill you took. Other than that, really no close calls. - Yeah, no, other than that, it was pretty good. We watched our footing. - It thundered once. - It thundered once. We didn't really go into places you shouldn't go. Forrest said, "Don't put yourself in danger. "Don't put yourself in a situation that an 80 year old man couldn't handle, and we followed that... - To the letter. - To a T. - To the letter. - And it ended with us not finding the treasure. - That's right. Hey, "I think "blaze" refers to a visible trail, "as in "trailblazing," while my lovely wife Laura "has an even better theory that it could refer "to the sunset and also indicate "a direction of west-something... "Direction of west. "Something to use for part two. "As always, I treasured "this gem of an episode." Hashtag #goldenghoulboys. - This is actually a pretty smart piece of work you've got here, Samuel. - Sam's got a brain in him, I'll tell you what. - Well, it's actually his lovely wife, Laura, who said that. He said, "My lovely wife, Laura, "has an even better theory..." - Well, I'm sorry. Seems to be the better half. - "That it could refer "to the sunset." Oh, no, she says that it could be the sunset and it could indicate a direction of west, something. - These are a couple of eggheads, and I mean that in a positive way. - You guys should go out there and try and find the treasure. - Couple of smart cookies. You gotta hop out there. - You should go out there and try and find it. Or maybe don't. - Or maybe a different treasure. - Maybe a different treasure. - I like you guys. Don't go searching for Fenn's. Go look for a different one. - No particular reason why you shouldn't go look for it, but maybe a different one. This last one's from Cornelia Li. "For Post Mortem. "One, is it possible that animals have moved it? "Two, have you considered bringing a metal detector?" Second person to ask that. Actually, third if you count QC. First question, though, is a fresh one. Have animals moved this treasure? I actually considered that, as well. 40 pounds, though, I don't think, like, a coyote could put that in its jaw and run away with it. That's a little much for those canines. - Not if they work together. - And they hop around, like, a circle? - Yeah, yeah. Or a bear. I guess animals... - Ooh, a bear could probably take it. - Animals probably don't have any interest in treasure. - That's true. - They really don't. - It doesn't have any scent in it. - No. They're looking for me. - Yeah. - Of other animal or human. - Forrest did say that in 1000 years the treasure wouldn't be there anymore. That suggests... - Well, what's really gonna be here in 1000 years? - Yeah, but that also suggests that maybe the environment is such that maybe the ground will move or the place it's nestled on will erode away over time. That's just something... - Sure. - It's another clue that really doesn't lead anywhere. - No. What are you going to do? - Yeah. That's it for questions, by the way. We did it. - What's coming up next week? Bupkis. - Ooh, just in time for teatime. (laughs) - What does that mean? - The golf course, man. - Oh, we were going golfing. - At nighttime. - It's the rich man's sport. (laughs) There's nothing coming up next week. - Because this was the season finale. - This was the season finale. - Yeah. - I don't know what to tell you guys. - It was fun. It was a good season. We got some good cases in there. - [Shane] Yeah. - We unsuccessfully searched for treasure. - Mm-hmm. - I think this case had a lot to unpack. There's a lot of discourse out there whether or not the treasure is even real. Personally, if it's not real and he put an itemized list of items that would be hidden in the wild and sent thousands and thousands of people out to find it, I personally think that makes him kind of an a-hole, but, you know... - People still having good experiences, though. That's really what it's all about. - That's true. It is, I guess, about that. But then again, four people died, so, you know... - Well, that was their own fault. - [Ryan] I suppose. - That's true. - Yeah, I think that's... Is that a wrap, then? - That's a wrap, except that we've got one last bit of business, here. - Even now? - Even now. You know, we'll do one more. For old time's sake. Our weekly Q and A concluded, I now welcome you to the portion of the show we call the Hot Doga... What is that? What is that... - Now I really don't give a shit. I didn't give a shit before, but now... - It's a Hot Doga... Saga. A Hot Dog Saga commissioned by Ryan Steven Bergara, written by me, and adored by every single viewer. You know, if you don't like it, you can kiss my apple taters, so... - I think this ring stabbed my finger. - As the Onion Station crumbles, Maisy, Pam, and beloved Gene race aboard the starship Minestrone having just retrieved the Bernouli converter. Off to a great start. They pop it into the deck. "Minestrone?" "Oh, Maisy. "'Sup?" "How's that converter feel? "Enough to get us to the Graxilon wormhole "and kick this tin can back in time?" "Mmm, yeah, this thing's delicious. "For sure." "Then fire it up, ship." The Minestrone rockets out of the Onion dock. "Orbiting Onion Station. "Initiating hyperdrive from jump to Graxilon quadrant. "I will miss you, brave Michael Soup, "the biggest baller of them all." "Wait, no, we've gotta wait for Mike and Ernie." "Maisy, we're out of time. "Whatever their business with the chili Pope, "it's gonna end with all of them getting vaporized, "and if we don't get out buns out of this sector ASAP, "we're dead, too. "I'd actually be double-dead, "which is the worst kind of dead." (coughs) "Speaking of dead, I know I've been chillin' all cool, "but I'm getting a little soggy, over here." "Hang in there, Gene. "Minestrone, is there a med kit onboard?" "No. Captain Soup used the last one "when he got stung by bees and forgot to buy a new one." "No, Maisy, it's fine. "I'm just gonna... "I'm just gonna take a nap for a while." "Wait, hang on, Gene. "Pam, can't you, like, do a magic thing?" "Uh, yeah, I mean, my witch stuff "usually only hurts people, but..." "Just try." "Okay. "Pam, Pam, Kazam!" (yelps) "Pam, Pam, Kazoo?" (yelps) "Pam, Pam, Control Z!" (yelps) "Okay, that's obviously not working." "I told you. "I'm sorry, Gene, she made me." "It's fine, you're a witch, I get it. "And a damn good one. "The first blast was enough, anyway. "It's a foregone conclusion. "It's too late, now." "Gene, just hang in there. "You're gonna be fine." "Oh, you know what? "I don't think so. "Goodbye, Maisy." (gags) Gene's dead, now. - Good. (futuristic music) - [Narrator] And so, sweet Gene, the most compelling character in the history of fiction, was laid to rest.
