Yeah, what are the odds, 1:1? ;^)
Given the ever-shrinking and ever-more-capable drone technology, it's only a matter of time before some sneaky tourist videos the entire interior of the shrine (which was built to replace the old one in the late 60s I think, I've seen a few seconds of footage of the procession, led by Haile Selassie).

I wouldn't blame anyone for taking a miss on the fourth installment of those movies, but near the beginning Indiana is seen pushing the crate with the Ark aside to get at something else.

Even Werner von Braun did his best work as an American.

I remember that! One of the few good scenes in the movie!

The Word of God tells us that Jesus took His blood into the Holy of Holies where He as High Priest sprinkled His sinless blood on the Mercy Seat. If the Mercy Seat is the spot between the wings over the box then the Ark of The Covenant is in Heaven.

Hi.

Someone long ago, an archeologist of some repute, told me that the Ark of the Covenant was buried 60 feet below what was Solomon’s portico.

Too bad he died before getting it.

When asked by a reporter after the 1969 Moon Landing how the US managed to beat the Soviets to the Moon, he answered, “Because our Germans were better than their Germans.”

The current keeper of the Ark always has AK-47 with him. Must be because of this guy.

It has to do with the endemic and probably irreparable violence of African society.

“Reality” tv can be very lucrative. Especially if you get producer credits. Rick and Marty are often listed as producers along with a bunch of the cast. Oak Island Tours makes money also. At $50CDN/guest for a walk around.

He took most of his team and loats of documentation and equipment in a caravan to surrender to the western allies; those who refused to go went home and got rounded up by the Soviets. They probably weren't too bright.

I'm worried that the whole thing will tip over and sink like Guam.

The Ark of the Covenant is available on Ebay if you know where to look.
Only the most worthy can find it.

So our Germans were Smarter than their Germans!

Yes, Ethiopian language and history. Not archaeology.

I recently watched the whole series and after I was through I couldn't believe I actually enjoyed them when the first came out.

Only memorable scene I loved was when the big guy came out twirling his swords and Indie just pulled his revolver and shot him.
