"No single story could ever do justice to the amazing accomplishments of Vendyl Jones, who was the true-life inspiration for Indiana Jones of Raiders of the Lost Ark blockbuster movie fame."

Are we actually supposed to believe this BS? The only source for Vendyl Jones being the "inspiration for Indiana Jones" is Vendyl Jones.

And apparently this guy has a history of being on the verge of unearthing the Ark of the Covenant...

From your link.

"As recently as last month, the rabbi, who only communicates via messenger, told Jones that the time was not yet right to discover the Temple vessels.
Last Thursday, however, Dr. Jones received a communication from the rabbi reading, “The time is right.” "

Maybe the time is right when the press are free to cover a fluff piece. I am betting that it will not occur because:

A. At the last minute the time is deemed not right again.
or
B. Some other BS reason

Actually, on Vendyl Jone's website (http://www.vendyljones.org.il), he states that he was not the inspiration for or related to the Indiana Jones movies. Please be careful with your references.
