Solving an ancient riddle!

A lifetime of research has led to this one moment. But, also like, what if they just made it bad? (Featuring our friend Shannon Barry!)

I love how the rough translation through thousands of years through multiple languages, many of which didn't exist in Roman times, rhymes.

Watching this is literally how it feels being an escape room gm. “Your lock is broken” no, friend, you are simply incorrect

[mintyfresh]

for the first couple of seconds i truly believed this was a clip from a syfy daytime movie

Yeah, don’t you just hate it that when you find the ancient entrance to Atlantis that the main gate is broken? Like, come on, you could’ve made it a little better.

“My fruit is FINER than gold”
“Oh ok the answer is gold in Latin cool”

Tungsten-Carbide drill bit would solved this whole problem in 2 minutes or less.

This dude sounds just like Sokka from avatar... or am I crazy?

[monolouge]

For anybody looking for the actual answer, its definitely aurum not fame with an exclamation mark. Its just broken.

[Coco-hqns]

I was too invested I’m so disappointed.

[anne.andromeda]

I'm still irrationally angry that the answer was English "Apple." Not even Latin or Italian, but bloody English

Somebody call McNellyOfficial on this one 😅 He would probably solve it without even touching it 😂😂😂

[DennisHeenan]

This is National Treasure level fuckary 😂

It's a combo lock with limited input. Theres no way it would have a dead lock if it was tried too many times. You could brute force the password in a couple days or so just mindlessly trying each one one click at a time untill they line up. Why couldnt they have just done that in the davinci code ? I dont remember much about it

[Cmw]

He reminds me of the dude from Hangover 😂

[hvip]

My fruit is better than gold... Yep it's definitely gold 😅

[timbomb]

Translated into english, funny enough it happens to rhyme

[William-Morey-Baker]

arent Dates considered to finer than gold by ancient peoples? like, werent they even referred to as gold and the food of the gods? idk why but i feel like dates is somehow the answer...

[waroftheworlds]

26^5~12 million

Why does no one ever brute force this stuff?

[verity]

Shouldn't the answer be wisdom? That's what the line means (my fruit is better than fine gold). If it's supposed to be in Greek then "sophia" or Latin "sage?"

When your ancient artifact was designed by AI and printed on a crappy 3d printer.
