Great story friend enjoyed it thanks

I've seen a few stories about the Superstitions & it's not really a remote area that I'd consider being classified as such ! You can be in the middle of nowhere in Australia & It's never spooky or strange 👌

I am not sure what to make of your story telling? You seem to combine elements of multiple people or treasure seekers into your tales. This particular story is another example. You mention a man by the name of Smith that is somehow involved in the misfortune of the two soldiers that stubbled upon some rich gold ore in the Superstitions. You give no first name but do tell he has a nickname of Pegleg. What is interesting is that there was a Thomas (Pegleg) Smith b. 1801 d. 1866 that found a rich gold deposit somewhere in the southern deserts of California. Are they one in the same? Well you do show his commemorative landmark in your closing remarks so you must think so. However, this couldn't be the man because he died in 1866 at least a decade before the events of this story. So how do you explain yourself? This isn't the first time I have found errors in your videos. Are you then a fraud that picks details of multiple people in history only to weave their unrelated adventures together to make up the body of these stories in your channel? It would seem to someone like myself who knows a little more than most about these treasure stories you tell the answer is yes...
