What's Behind the Wall?





(No, this time it's not a mummified cat. It's even more bizarre.)

Remember the forgotten tunnel that was discovered underneath Brooklyn? (If not, you really should click here.) Well, there may soon be a movie about it. The film's producer is trying to raise money to complete the project--and to fund an excavation. He hopes to prove that a section of the tunnel still hidden behind a wall, "contains hidden international mysteries about John Wilkes Booth, the assasination of Abraham Lincoln, the missing pages of Booth's diary that list the conspirators involved in Lincoln's death, and a perfectly preserved locomotive from the early 1800's."

Hey--stranger things have happened.

Watch the film's trailer here. And see a CNN interview with the men behind the film here.

I actually saw a history channel thing about this (the tunnel, not the movie). On the same episode was a bar that had been around during prohibition, and you'd be surprised how much effort they put into hiding their booze. I don't remember what it was called, but its intact and in Manhattan.

Huh, Making a movie... I wish I could make one about the tunnels I dug in my back yard. But I don't have a video camera. Jk.

The claims that they have of all those particular treasures that they believe are back there leads me to ask how they can assume things that specific?
