(Q - ??: we have often talked about Max Valentin's find, this find which is something, which is a find, was it more or less exploited one day in
a movie, in a book, in something, or is it something that, to your knowledge, you've never seen anywhere else?)
MB : I think that this does not exist in the treasure hunts that we know or have known since 93, I have never seen this principle taken up. After the idea came to him about stories of treasures, I'm not even sure. If I think about it by remembering what he was like and how he talked about all that, if I try to reconstruct what could have given him this idea, it's not impossible that he was inspired by something but I believe not that it was a treasure hunt if he saw this principle somewhere, I'm not sure it was in a treasure hunt.
But he never used it again.
