00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:51,999
That's the one spot
we're not supposed to go.

974
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:53,359
That's the one spot
we're not supposed to go.

975
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:53,999
I've been in so many
more dangerous spots than this.

976
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:55,999
I've been in so many
more dangerous spots than this.

977
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:57,999
Well, you might have used up
all your lives already.

978
00:26:58,000 --> 00:26:59,519
Well, you might have used up
all your lives already.

979
00:26:59,600 --> 00:26:59,999
I'm just gonna throw the power cord
through to the other side,

980
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,999
I'm just gonna throw the power cord
through to the other side,

981
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:02,839
I'm just gonna throw the power cord
through to the other side,

982
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:03,999
through that dangerous tunnel.
OK.

983
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:05,039
through that dangerous tunnel.
OK.

984
00:27:05,120 --> 00:27:05,999
And, yes,
it could collapse at any moment,

985
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:07,119
And, yes,
it could collapse at any moment,

986
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:07,999
so that's why I'm just
gonna throw it through.

987
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:09,399
so that's why I'm just
gonna throw it through.

988
00:27:11,360 --> 00:27:11,999
Well, you're not
bloody Indiana Jones, all right.

989
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:13,999
Well, you're not
bloody Indiana Jones, all right.

990
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:14,519
Well, you're not
bloody Indiana Jones, all right.

991
00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:15,999
You gotta risk it to find opal,
Beck.

992
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:16,599
You gotta risk it to find opal,
Beck.

993
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:17,999
We've already
risked it just being here.

994
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:18,679
We've already
risked it just being here.

995
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:19,999
Justin, that's really stupid.

996
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:20,759
Justin, that's really stupid.

997
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:21,999
Apparently, Justin and I disagree

998
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:23,759
Apparently, Justin and I disagree

999
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:23,999
on whether finding opal
is worth risking your life for.

1000
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:25,999
on whether finding opal
is worth risking your life for.

1001
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:27,719
on whether finding opal
is worth risking your life for.

1002
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:27,999
This is what I would do
without you here, OK?

1003
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:29,999
This is what I would do
without you here, OK?

1004
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:31,639
This is what I would do
without you here, OK?

1005
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:31,999
Honestly, Justin, it's really not...

1006
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:33,999
Honestly, Justin, it's really not...

1007
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:34,199
Honestly, Justin, it's really not...

1008
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:35,999
What do you wanna do?

1009
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:36,479
What do you wanna do?

1010
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:37,999
Not go on the one place
that Max told us not to.

1011
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:38,919
Not go on the one place
that Max told us not to.

1012
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:39,999
He said,
"Don't go digging this area."

1013
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:40,999
He said,
"Don't go digging this area."

1014
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:41,999
Please, relax. You're making
me nervous by going off your chops.

1015
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:43,999
Please, relax. You're making
me nervous by going off your chops.

1016
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:45,999
Please, relax. You're making
me nervous by going off your chops.

1017
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:46,719
Please, relax. You're making
me nervous by going off your chops.

1018
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:47,999
It just makes me really frustrated.

1019
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:48,799
It just makes me really frustrated.

1020
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:49,999
We've had discussions about where do
you draw the line financially,

1021
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:51,999
We've had discussions about where do
you draw the line financially,

1022
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:52,119
We've had discussions about where do
you draw the line financially,

1023
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:53,999
but where do you draw
the line physically?

1024
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:54,399
but where do you draw
the line physically?

1025
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:55,999
Like, for your own life
for God's sake.

1026
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:56,479
Like, for your own life
for God's sake.

1027
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:01,999
I don't know.
It's just concerning sometimes

1028
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:03,639
I don't know.
It's just concerning sometimes

1029
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:03,999
how much he's willing to risk
just to find opal.

1030
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:05,999
how much he's willing to risk
just to find opal.

1031
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:06,919
how much he's willing to risk
just to find opal.

1032
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:09,999
And that scares me because,
you know, the worst-case scenario

1033
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:11,999
And that scares me because,
you know, the worst-case scenario

1034
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:13,999
And that scares me because,
you know, the worst-case scenario

1035
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:14,319
And that scares me because,
you know, the worst-case scenario

1036
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:15,999
is that that roof does come down
on top of him,

1037
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:17,399
is that that roof does come down
on top of him,

1038
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:17,999
and then I have to dig
him out with my bare hands.

1039
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:19,959
and then I have to dig
him out with my bare hands.

1040
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:23,999
Safe. Lovely.

1041
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:25,959
Safe. Lovely.

1042
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:29,999
Come on, let's go.
Let's find some opal.

1043
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:30,479
Come on, let's go.
Let's find some opal.

1044
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:39,999
(SOBBING) It's not worth it, Justin.

1045
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:40,719
(SOBBING) It's not worth it, Justin.

1046
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:41,999
Can you just put your trust in,
you know, me?

1047
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:43,159
Can you just put your trust in,
you know, me?

1048
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:43,999
And I know you're super worried
because, you know,

1049
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:45,999
And I know you're super worried
because, you know,

1050
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:46,399
And I know you're super worried
because, you know,

1051
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:47,999
we've got something so special,
you know, we love each other,

1052
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:49,479
we've got something so special,
you know, we love each other,

1053
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:49,999
and we don't want anything
to happen.

1054
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:51,559
and we don't want anything
to happen.

1055
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:51,999
I don't think it's worth it.
I was fine before that.

1056
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:53,999
I don't think it's worth it.
I was fine before that.

1057
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:54,079
I don't think it's worth it.
I was fine before that.

1058
00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:55,999
You need to get the job done,
the power through.

1059
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:56,439
You need to get the job done,
the power through.

1060
00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:57,999
(SIGHS) I know you just, you know,

1061
00:28:58,000 --> 00:28:58,879
(SIGHS) I know you just, you know,

1062
00:28:58,960 --> 00:28:59,999
you get excited and, yes,
probably you'll find la-la-la-la,

1063
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:01,999
you get excited and, yes,
probably you'll find la-la-la-la,

1064
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:03,479
you get excited and, yes,
probably you'll find la-la-la-la,

1065
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:03,999
but I just don't like it
when you do risky things...

1066
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:05,999
but I just don't like it
when you do risky things...

1067
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:07,079
but I just don't like it
when you do risky things...

1068
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:09,999
..just so you can find opal.

1069
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:10,239
..just so you can find opal.

1070
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:15,999
If you're not feeling it,
we may as well go then.

1071
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:17,559
If you're not feeling it,
we may as well go then.

1072
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:17,999
I don't think it's worth it.

1073
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:19,999
I don't think it's worth it.

1074
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:21,999
(GROANS) Oh, man.

1075
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:22,079
(GROANS) Oh, man.

1076
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:27,999
OK.

1077
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:28,999
OK.

1078
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:29,999
All right.
I just gotta always remember

1079
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:31,599
All right.
I just gotta always remember

1080
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:31,999
that Becky might be
a bit nervous down here.

1081
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:33,759
that Becky might be
a bit nervous down here.

1082
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:33,999
So, I got to be extra sensitive,

1083
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:35,839
So, I got to be extra sensitive,

1084
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:35,999
especially when, you know,
she's well out of her comfort zone.

1085
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:37,999
especially when, you know,
she's well out of her comfort zone.

1086
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:39,039
especially when, you know,
she's well out of her comfort zone.

Whoa. It's tough work, Beck.

Whoa. It's tough work, Beck.

1096
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:01,999
Drilling opal is amazing,
cos you never know

1097
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:03,799
Drilling opal is amazing,
cos you never know

1098
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:03,999
how close you are
to the actual fortune.

1099
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,999
how close you are

1100

how close you are

1101
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:11,999
All right.

1102
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:12,799
All right.

1103
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:13,999
So, opal is in this level
in between all the holes.

1104
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:15,279
So, opal is in this level
in between all the holes.

1105
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:15,999
I'm gonna dig out this nice
sort of rectangular area.

1106
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:17,919
I'm gonna dig out this nice
sort of rectangular area.

1107
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:19,999
I'm just gonna drop it out,
and then I'm gonna see

1108
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:20,359
I'm just gonna drop it out,
and then I'm gonna see

1109
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:21,999
if there's anything in it.

1110
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:22,439
if there's anything in it.

1111
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:29,999
Justin. What? Come here.

1112
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,999
Justin. What? Come here.

1113
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:33,239
Justin. What? Come here.

1114
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:35,999
You joking? Wow.
Look at that. Oh, my God.

1115
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:37,999
You joking? Wow.
Look at that. Oh, my God.

1116

You joking? Wow.
Look at that. Oh, my God.

1117

Bloody hell, Beck. There you go.

Bloody hell, Beck. There you go.

Bloody hell, Beck. There you go.

1120
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:43,999
Look at the colour on that.
It's amazing, aye?

1121
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:45,999
Look at the colour on that.
It's amazing, aye?

1122
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:46,319
Look at the colour on that.
It's amazing, aye?

1123
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:47,999
Oh, wow. There it is.

1124
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:49,879
Oh, wow. There it is.

1125
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:53,999
Whoo!

1126
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:54,119
Whoo!

1127
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:55,999
That's a big pipe. Look.
You can see the pipe.

1128
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:56,359
That's a big pipe. Look.
You can see the pipe.

1129
00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:57,999
It's got a little bit
of a tinge of colour in it.

1130
00:30:58,000 --> 00:30:58,799
It's got a little bit
of a tinge of colour in it.

1131
00:30:58,880 --> 00:30:59,999
A belemnite fossil
which has turned to opal.

1132
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:01,039
A belemnite fossil
which has turned to opal.
