    There was a documentary made in the late 1980s about this. The Nazis tried to get the holly grail but two archaeologists found it. Unfortunately it was lost down a chasm.

    Mabey the Grail is all the friends we made along the way
  • @dannyb2783
    Just make sure you choose the cup of a carpenter, not a king.

    Didn't realise Lemmy was a grail enthusiast
  • @MrSpartanicus
    Watch, the holy grail is just another cup in someone’s beer stein collection.
  • @alanaldpal950
    So the holy grail is so powerful and grants eternal life…. Yet any group or individual has possessed it has been defeated and none are alive ? Sounds like the holy grail needs an operators manual 😮

    The fact be told, the cup Jesus probably used was a little clay vessel. The gold chalice or grail is a RCC myth
  • @Davidfooterman
    Himmler a ‘nerd’, no. It was a typo for ‘Terd’.
  • @mariakelly90210
    I thought the most elusive treasure of them all was The Ark Of The Covenant.
  • @letssee5213
    The Spear of Longinus AKA Spear of Destiny was also important
  • @christopher5361
    It was never “imbued with miraculous powers”. Neither was his plate or his chair. Only him.
  • @bt6202
    Why is Everyone saying Raiders of the Lost ark? That’s the Ark. Raiders of the lost “Ark”. That was “The Last crusade”. lol
  • Compliments to the sound editor , however music wasn’t quite loud enough I almost heard what was being t said 🙄
  • @linkin543210
    I’ve seen a movie about this, I think it was called Monty Python
  • I worked with a Himler in SE Ohio. He looked like Himmler so I asked and he said yeah he was an uncle. They dropped the m. Damn good kid too.
