I planned on visiting the pyramids one day before I die. As a history teacher, I taught my 11-year-old students about ancient Egypt. Every year a new class. Then, when I retired I fell ill and now I am bedridden in Spain with any possibility of visiting Egypt out of the question. What a privilege it was to teach what we think we know about the pyramids even though I could never see them for myself. My comment here is like the graffiti left behind by those who got to Egypt and have passed on having left behind a few scratches while the pyramids remain forever.
@@s_mavi Nobody will miss me but that is unimportant. The pyramids are forever.
RIP
@@jean6872 Well at least you have my head spinning on whether that is really a valid thought. You will at least be remembered by some for a time. And I acknowledge your graffiti. Hopefully one day your work will be studied....
@@americannapalm Ordinary schoolteachers do not leave behind a body of work. Our students remember us and when they pass on there is no trace of us. I do wonder if my thesis will ever be read by a student studying the Spanish years in the Marianas. That would be a comforting thought.
@@americannapalm unlikely, but may he RIP
This is the second time Ive had the extreme pleasure of watching (and studying) this video and its contents. It's a terrific piece of vital information for the continuing effort to pursue the completion our knowledge of Egyptology.
Now, I can really appreciate why Zahi Hawass is so pissed off. To paraphrase: " Some French guy comes here knowing nothing, and makes a theory of the Pyramid. And the "Scan" programs were there simply to support his (amateur) theory." Well Dr. Hawass, J.P. Houdin isn't exactly an idiot. He's an architect, working closely with highly qualified engineers. These people are not fools. Of course he's pissed off, because it's been staring him in the face all his life and, "someone" comes along with fresh eyes and sees what he'd missed all this time. The recent "follow up" video from the "History for Granite" channel is superb. It has also some points of contention with Houdin's theory of the internal ramp but, it is firmly in Houdin's s corner. The bureaucracy of the Egyptian Antiquities Dept. is a real nightmare as long as Zahi Hawass sits on the board. And, the "hoops" Hawass has put up, for all to jump thru, for any further investigation of the internal structural configuration of the monument, are deliberately designed to fail. Houdin is clearly Sherlock Holms to Zahi Hawass' Dr. Moriarity! And , Hawass doesn't like being told, "It's elementary old boy!".
I've watched this at least 12 times so far, very intriguing
@@tommyandrews4992 The Riddle of the Pyramids shall endure.
I dont understand why you think this?
Have you looked into the tomb of the birds? There's possibly a huge system of caves under the giza plateau that's not been explored. Andrew Collins rediscovered this cave system and returned at one point for a another visit to find hawass and Co had gated the entrance. As you say, he doesn't want others to make these discoveries. It's potentially the biggest unexplored system in that area and seems to extend under the pyramids according to one scan they have done. Even the new corridor they found under the chevron area is dumb. After all these years, no drilling or anything invasive, turns out you just had to push an endoscope inside.
@@agentolshki4265 Thank you.
When you realize that Bob Brier is a super star Egyptologist while Houdin was nobody in the field and you see how considerate and helpful Bob Brier is with Houdin, it's very heartwarmimg and gives a lot of hope for the future of this research! We need more people like Bob. Besides, Houdin has brought a lot of great ideas. We still don't know for sure how the pyramid but at least Houdin's ideas are realistic.
On my end, my main question is Why did they build the King's chamber so high? Khafre's pyramid's chamber was built underground and that makes sense because this way you don't have to move those massive granite stones 43 meters high, you simply place them on ground level. Khufu's pyramid has an underground chamber like this, but it's unfinished. Why? Did the project get rescoped?
Did the king want to be buried INSIDE the pyramid? Seems like that one project constraint that gives you 20% quality but requires 80% of the budget.
Asking the right questions! Hopefully, one day we'll know for sure.
It was calculated to be as high as the top of the pyramid would end up being so that when they pulled the outer blocks up through the gallery they would be able to reach the top. As the outside progressed the interior would as well. When they were done at the top, they took all material they used to build out with them on the way down n out. It was there to go up would be the only way back down to the underground where it all started from. There is One main tunnel going underground to access all corridors of the pyramid upward. Again they built up and deconstructed on the way down and out.
@@matthewpettit4367 This is an excellent theory.
@@matthewpettit4367 that makes no sense to me. The Gallery is the mdchanism to counteract the weight of the stones not where the stones were carried through.
Unfortunately, i have no qnswer, but it seems exactly like you say. He just wanted to be buried in the middle of the pyramid.
My favorite bit is how the team in the 80’s “failed” when they couldn’t find any hidden chambers, but actually found the proof of one of history’s greatest mysteries without even realizing it!
When we first get to see that density diagram and it shows the obvious spiral shape…wow - that can’t be a coincidence.
I believed that no matter how many more Scientists are working on how the Pyramids were built ; I personally think that we will never find out.

I truly believe he has made the age-old discovery of how khufu pyramid was made. Keep up the great work,and keep surprising and inspiring generations to come with the belief ,that if you can think it, you can achieve it.The mind is our greatest tool.👍
Jean Pierre's passion for his work, research and zeal to solve enigmatic pyramid is really sensible and plausible. People like him are the treasure to the welfare of mankind.
You have to give him credit for coming up with the idea using only ropes and timbers. But we all know they had other means to build with.
His counterweight theory doesn’t explain how they got the counterweight back up to the top? Assuming they hauled the counterweight back up using manpower- why, seeing that the counterweight HAS to be heavier than the weight it’s pulling up, didn’t they just haul the lighter weight (the blocks) up in the first place?
@@BottleBri make the counterweight half the weight of the block you want to pull up, that way you pull half the weight
As an architect I find this fascinating! I'm surprised that I had not come across this before but I'm glad I finally did. Great deductive reasoning on how it was built and it makes a lot of sense. @27:25 when he sees those diagonal lines along the surface that certainly look to match the ramp locations, that did it for me.
Love hearing this and so happy you enjoyed!
If I had one chance to time travel I’d go back to when the pyramids were built. They are the most mind boggling interesting mystery’s to me.
Time travel isn’t possible sorry
Aye, although if it was just a one time choice I'd struggle to pick from Kennedy's assassination, Jack the ripper murders ,watching the defeat of the Spanish armada from the white cliffs , the murder of the twins in the tower of London and Dixie Dean's final 2 goals against arsenal in his sixty season.
Time travel is possible! You're doing it right now ;)
if you went back they would be building it so slowly you wouldnt see...lolz

Nice.
Hit me in high school, had a panic attack. 😆 🤣 shit was fucking heavy. It's been 18 years since and time has only sped up. Just trying to enjoy the moments and make em count.
I like how we’re advanced enough to fly to the moon in a rocket ship, but no one can figure out how ancient people stacked rocks😂
It is quite perplexing! Studying the past poses its own set of challenges compared to advancements in technology - but you do have a point 😉
Researchers have figured out most of it. Also they are using satellites with infra red to find more pyramids still buried under the sand
I believe it is us that still stack rocks today, suppressed technology to keep us enslaved.
If Musk offered $100,000,000,000 to reproduce this pyramid, I guarantee you it would be built.
@@randal_gibbons Definitely some food for thought!
For the past 60 years I have been puzzled by this question ,why did the Egyptians NEVER include a pyramid in their paintings ? I would be very grateful if anybody out there could answer it ! Cheers Eddie
This is SUCH a good question. Let us know if you ever find the answer!
I think that answer may be the same as in Christianity as Orthodox never paint the coffin or graves...
I’ve thought that too very often, also such a great fete you’d think they would make lots of models of them & the Sphinx for the people of that time , if you go to Paris there’s a shop selling Eiffel towers everywhere because they are proud of what they made but none found anywhere!!! So no glyphs on anything & no models made ,they must have been really proud of what they built!!!
I think they didn't because they knew they did not made this pyramids, they just used them for what ever...
maybe because it was never a part of their culture? They were there at the beginning of their culture and at the end. And all the really old paintings and carvings are destroyed, changed or erroted. It is fact, that the cultures after them changed the history in stone for their benefits and glory. Just look at the bumbling carvings of hyroglyphs on perfect sarcophagus made out of very hard stone. The really old carvings are already destroyed like the pillar with the myth about Atlantis or the old capital city memphis with its tablets of wisdom teaching. Just a minimal amount of the old tradition has survived, but massively changed in greek mythologie and within some cultures of africa, especially in ethopia.
The grand gallery was so obviously built as the ramp to raise the largest blocks since they are all stacked at its apex. And it has features within that can only be explained as accommodating the equipment and wooden rails the blocks would have been ratcheted up by. They would have built the pyramid up to the level of the king’s chamber floor, then used the grand gallery to winch the large granite stones up to that level… and from there they would have been able to build shorter ramps to lift the massive gable stones up to the top of the chamber as they built the walls of the king’s chamber after all the big stones had been raised to that level. There is almost certainly a second grand gallery above the known one for that lift, although not being needed for the burial, it was likely filled in. When Brier expresses amazement that they would have built this huge and impressive space “just to lift the stones” he reveals his ignorance. Moving the 60 ton stones was the single biggest challenge for the entire structure. The vast bulk of the pyramid is made of stones around 2 tons which are simply not that hard to move. But those massive stones took some serious planning and even more impressive work. The features in the gallery are all mechanical in nature. The notches in the two rails I don’t think were to affix wooden rails. I think they served the purpose of ratcheting brakes. They would rig to lift and pull the stone up just to the next pair of notches, and the wooden pawl would drop into the notch and prevent the load from backsliding. Then they would re-rig for the next pull. Moreover, I think the grand gallery would have been used as the primary ramp for much of the construction up to the kings chamber floor. If their winch could haul 60 tons up a 50% grade, then it could haul 30 two ton stones up at a time. Or 10 at a time at a faster clip.
This is some good thinking!
It's also funny to think that they didnt know about circles and wheels. That's a riot lol of course they did.
Your ignorance is astonishing. Stonemason of 30 years.
@@OswaldBeef based off what evidence exactly???? According to everything we know, they did not have the wheel...... that means no pulleys, no cranes, no wenches, nothing.....
Even the Romans attributed their success of building the Coliseum to the invention of the wheel crane. They couldn't have built it without.... and the Coliseum isn't even close to being as complicated of a build as the Giza pyramids.
Well, Brier is a specialist in mummies, not pyramids, so it makes sense he would be dubious of some aspects of Houdin's theory.
As a fifteen year old I was visiting St. Peter's in Rome. I went right to the top of the dome and scratched my name on the side of one of the pillars with a coin. If my little bit of graffiti were to be discovered in the future, would it be an accurate assumption that I'd built the damn thing?
so you think pharaon climb inside a piramid and scratch his name? OK
@@maximus-2307 No, not necessarily. But there was an English 19tht Cent. explorer who also left graffiti up there (His name I forget, but check it out). and rumor has it that he painted the cartouch on the roof. (The chemical composition of the red paint is NOT ancient).

i know they have other feature for them. im joking, but still...
I worked heavy construction 26 years concrete and steel with our modern equipment today it would be a big challenge to build the pyramids but they done it with simple tools pretty damn amazing
They weren't working to a budget, or only there for the pay. If modern humans ever really wanted a bit stone pyramid, we'd build one that put the ancient ones to shame in every way. But in reality, if some random rich guy tried to have one built in the modern world, there would be red tape, health and safety issues, pay disputes, and every worker questioning why anyone would even want a big stone triangle.
Basically the builders were giant humans. End of.
I didn't realise it required such clever ingenuity. I knew that they had to get their lines straight but geometry was their thing. As for the rest of the build I always thought it was brute strength. So it turns out it needed clever and complex engineering solutions.
The architect and engineer had at least the brains of Archimedes.
Visually, I think the facing stones amaze me the most. Cutting them at a precise angle and then placing them at a precise angle could not have been that easy.
Yeah, it truly took a vast amount of mathematical knowledge at the very least.
See my comment. I do not believe the white limestone blocks were cut before installation but were placed as square blocks and smoothed from the top down using the layer below to stand on.
The angle of each block doesn't have to be precise. As long as each one is cut to the same reference, it doesn't matter. One can be out a few mm one way, the next one a few mm another way, but when you have thousands, the errors all average out. Plus, the final finishing was almost certainly done with the blocks already in place. Very little math is needed. All you need is a way to place each block, in reference to a single known point, and the accuracy happens all by itself.

It's incredible, yet they somehow managed it. Great video thanks
The stones are made from ancient concrete for sure. They could melt and scoop rock. 👍🏻
You do know that the ancient Egyptians used saws with diamond fragments at the end to cut granite right? Just like today.
Lots of what we know now is just improvement to old technology.
@@donnismoo1498 let's you are right for the limestone blocks, explain to me how you do the granite parts...
@Mike Carlton the problem when talking about the tools used (copper chisel, hammers/stones) is that from beginning (ancient egypt ) to decadence (roman annexation...don't take it to heart!) 3000 years have passed, and the tools have not evolved a bit.
the most recent theories, supported by facts and not words, open on other questions but at least we stop going around in circles!
Stone mason myself. I went a few years ago to see the unfinished Obelisk in Aswan. Solid red granite, shit you not, they were scooping it out. Very very precisely. I have no clue how they do it. I’ve seen similar techniques today done with heat, but it destroys the natural grain structure. It’s incredibly what those fellow masons were capable of doing. Too bad there were natural cracks in the bedrock. My guess is, they got too greedy with the size of that behemoth. Would’ve weighed around 1,000-1,200 tons. Imagine lifting THAT.
In an age where I can’t focus for ten seconds, this show was fascinating. I want so badly to carve “2022” into the inner chamber where someone had carved “1915” and “1935”
I had a dream last night that the stone inside Bob's room (the notch) designated by Jean Pierre Houdin was finally removed leading to the internal spiral ramp and it was completely filled with tools, stone saws and apparatus used in the building of the great pyramid along with documentation 😴
We can only dream
they should have given you the guest spot on this doc
I love that.
Sorry, the spiral ramp is filled with nothing but aluminum pull-tabs (just kidding - metal-detectorist humor). Bob should have said to the pyramid security guys: "I accidentally left my flashlight up there when I went up last time - I'm just going to get it now, thanks!" *inserts endoscopic camera* Wish it were that easy lol. Just being in those spiral ramps for the very first time in 4,200 years would be cool even if there aren't any artifacts - fingers crossed though!
I'm afraid you won't find any piece of anything as they were reused. Pieces of wood as lintel for exemple, copper tools were recasted, and so on. Raw materials came from far countries like cedar, tin and copper came from Sinaï.
@@ptitmalouin910 I was actually expecting to find the hall of records in the spiral ramp
You know when I watch these documentaries I start believing that those pyramids can suck you in, it's just that when you decide to do research on them you sell off your property and move to Egypt and end up being there for a long time even forever.
That happens with all kinds of passions and obsessions
There is one man at the head of the Egyptian antiquities department.
He made a lot of money and fame by definitively stating everything.
He is stubborn and refuses to allow further research that might disprove his proclamations.
That is why, until he is gone, we will never know.
One man.
That’s should be a crime. To suppress knowledge that literally changes history. Imagine how ignorant this man is. He looks like a fool now. There’s evidence that makes other old tired solutions to the pyramid implausible. Wake up. We see your desperation.
Give me One Non-Return 1st Class Plane Ticket to Egypt as I won't make it back and a gun and I will take that Arse Hole out so the Entire world will forever know All the REAL truths and answers and NOT just His Propaganda and Nonsensece that keeps his job/lifestyle alive which also lines his pockets with all he steals as he plunders Egypt's historical worth into Swiss Bank Accounts through his stories he Pens and that of others he rubber stamps while having No-One to answer too apart from himself. The Guy is Criminally taking advantage of Egypt its people and its heritage. I'm Sick of this self-serving Ass who thinks his answer is the Absolute Finale answer. It is like getting the truth from within the Vatican walls and Files under lock and key. Though with Egypt the world only has to topple one egotistical fraudster funding his lifestyle and not Tens upon Tens of Thousands of Catholics doing the same. When it comes time to open the files/scrolls, there will be a Mysterious fire, destroying all literature and files that have been locked away for far more than100 years.

How they were built may remains a mystery but the people who built these amazing structures were definitely an intelligent people who deserve credit
We agree!
Watching for the second time after over a decade. Great documentary with a fascinating subject matter. Amazing work by Jean-Pierre Houdin and the other people involved.
We agree entirely! So glad you enjoyed again!
I am amazed that this documentary has not received wider coverage. This man is amazing !
Agreed. His ideas were gaining traction in academia, at least until the muon scans failed to detect an internal ramp. They did find cavities that may have been part of the system. The ramp may have been filled in for greater stability when it was no longer needed. I know of no better explanation for the Grand Gallery.
Lu Ann Lewellen - well could the dumb muons see that space shape that was filled in ??
@Lewis River om
It's censored on CZcams. You cannot find it on YT, even with full name.
It had wider spread coverage over a decade ago when the documentary came out. Just do a Google search. It was on CNN, New Your Times, The Guardian, The Australian, China Daily, etc. when this aired on television. It has since been discounted after further scans found no internal ramp. That is why it gets less coverage in the 2020's. The grand gallery counterweight idea is still viable though.
When every other theory has large gaps within it, this appears to be the one theory that stands up to scrutiny. You can even see on the outside of the Pyramid the faint lines which could indicate the presents of an internal passageway.
This theory doesn't explain how they cut the stones and the technology they used. There is not a single painting telling us how they moved individual rocks. All we have a a statue pulled on a sled, that is not enough. If we don't understand the methods they used, we will never see the entire picture!
We as humans need an understanding of how they cut these rocks so precisely and placed them all so perfectly. This man’s inside ramp hypotheses is nice, but I need to understand how they cut these stones so precisely to not even be able to fit a razor blade between them. It’s either aliens or they had a technology that was lost somewhere along the way. Or the timeline is way off and people were giants when the pyramid was constructed. Mountains are the stumps of trees type of giants.

yeah like wheel on a sand would work very well, nice conclusion ainstain.
There were always images of sleds on smooth logs to help transpory blocks. Not sure if those illustrations we're ever period correct.
Maybe having a wheel implies an axel as well, but I'm not sure of the historical accuracy
Great documentary, thanks for uploading it.
So happy you liked it! You may want to check out some of the other incredible documentaries we have on ancient Egypt.
The narrator said the ancient Egyptians didnt know about wheels, yet they figured out how to build a pyramid that man could not even duplicate today with modern technology.
He ought to retract that phrase.
Good documentary by the way.
I think the recently discovered "void" above the Grand Gallery, is another grand gallery for moving stones up inside the pyramid.

Il tell you why the Egyptian government don’t let someone stick a camera into these voids and be gone either it, the pyramids bring huge money to the country, they don’t want it solved.
*UPDATE!*
*In 2020 the Pyramid is proven at least circa 3,500 BCE, by carbon dating a piece of wood thought lost, but it was found in storage in a Museum in Scottland.*
*(Thus, it was not Kufu's Pyramid or tomb)*
The Sphynx has been dated conservatively to 11,500 BC by Dr Robert Schoch, Professor, Boston College (Yale Grad), *Peer Journal Reviewed*
I suspect the Great Pyramid would actually date to the exact same era.
Also my leaning
Wood was scarce in Egypt so they reused it over and over, so an old carbon date doesn't prove age of the pyramids. It just means they used old wood for stuff. The charcoal found in the mortar has carbon dates much more recent, especially the second survey that Lehner did. A little older than conventional dates for the Giza pyramids, but only by a couple centuries for the oldest pieces, not a thousand years like you suggest and probably well within measurement error.
@@Zentrails Yes. Thank you. Khufu's pyramid was also dated by the style of pottery. Dr. Lehner's idea to date organic flecks in the mortar was brilliant, IMO.

You're so welcome! We're happy to hear you enjoyed it so much and we agree - hopefully one day he's proven to be correct!
The mere fact that they had to use modern technology just to start to decipher how the Great Pyramid was built is a huge indicator that a very advanced technology had to be used to build the pyramid itself or at least we should accept that ancient Egyptians were much smarter than we are today.
They didn't have to be smarter than we are today (some of us aren't all that smart) but they did have experience in pyramid building and models to help work out the problems.
@@librarylu Good point. :)
I mean its kinda hard when you don't have records of something. If we are being honest we can make ways to do it that would be technologically similiar to what they could of used.
100%
@@thunderlifestudios There have been quite a few experiments done on moving the stones, smoothing the stones, getting the alignment right....They had a lot of time and the tools to do the work. Remains of a ramp have been found that was undoubtedly used. The only question seems to be whether the extended ramp wrapped all the way around the outside of the construction or whether part of it was internal.
Dr. Hawass, not surprisingly, dismissed Houdin's idea and said Bob Brier is a "mummy guy", not a "pyramid guy". The muon scan failed to reveal the internal ramp but it did find some things that could point to it. The 1986 thermal scan certainly is intriguing. I don't know what else could account for that shape.
Jean-Pierre Houdin's hypothesis is still unproven but it makes so much sense I have hope more evidence will prove him right.
Has anyone done an analysis of scraping the stones in the Grand Gallery to see if there are fats present? Is anything known about the fats the Egyptians used for lubrication? If so, is the residue in the pyramid the same chemically? This should not be difficult to do.
Had the same thought, most likely tallow used widely in Egypt for many purposes.
Surely any organic material would have decayed by now?

This is mind boggling. Jean Pierre's theory of an internal circular /angled ramps at 7 degree inclines with the outer ramps being built first, followed by the rest of the stone work being gradually added, including the the granite internal chamber of the Pharaoh himself seems the only plausible and sensible way that the brilliant Egyptian architects and workers could have hauled all those millions of heavy blocks of perfectly chisselled stone blocks to form the perfect geometry of the great Pyramid of Khufu. Jean Pierre is a genius architect.
Well said, this theory is the only one that makes sense, unless we can prove otherwise. But the scientific way to solve it by the 3D model is already very convincing.

@@magellantvhello Brother, I love to engage in a discussion about how the counterweight was “reset”, meaning: how was it put back up on to the highest point in the grand gallery? Surely one would have to put as much energy in it, as pulling it down, but of course minus the energy that gravity pulls the counterweight down. So just having the counterweight pulling something down, gives one another problem: the weight is then stuck at the lowest point in the grand gallery….
And also: as I understand the corbelled walls of the grand gallery can withstand massive weights from above, but not weights from “along its axis”, is that right? So would it not be a huuuge risk to have the counterweight-rope(s) being ripped and sending the whole counterweight rushing down the grand gallery? I mean the fact that it still stands today tells us it (probably) did not happen….
@@konstantinonassis7015 That's kind of easy if the grand gallery was indeed part of a counterweight system, the grand gallery ramp and the external ramp probably worked together, just like elevator counterweights:
-once the counterweight of the grand gallery is at the bottom, you remove the large granite block that it brought up, attach some smaller blocks to that side, and then slide/roll/pull the whole thing down the external ramp until the whole counterweight system is reset at the top of the grand gallery.
-That means someone would have to constantly haul some smaller blocks up for the counterweight part of the external ramp, but that's still way easier than the pulling the huge granite blocks... and they were already constantly hauling smaller blocks up through both the internal and external ramp anyway, so it's not as if they were short of some extra blocks up there to make the whole system work...

I think one concept that alludes many is that fact that not just one technique was used, but multiple methods or techniques were incorporated in building the pyramid. It's not that they used multiple techniques because they didn't know what they were doing, but they used multiple techniques because these methods proved essential in successfully constructing the pyramid.

I saw those "white" lines on another video. The internal passageways make the most sense compared to exterior ramp methods. The exterior could have been partially completed on the way up then finished on the way down(filling the notches and exterior lining). The passageway could have been filled on the way down too causing a less dense element.
thats exactly what they did do hang on i'll find you the vid that explains it all In the end it is so simple czcams.com/video/KMAtkjy_YK4/video.html
Seems an interior ramp would have been much cooler/ more conducive to efficient work of manhandling the slabs, vs in the sun, outside… making construction quicker ?
I also heard those markings are from when they were looting it, mainly the stone they took from the top, which I believe is the Ark of the Covenant. It would make sense if the tomb had ionization moving through the top, would create a rather plutonium like substance same as a nuclear war head.
The internal ramp is still there to this day.

@mohammed ilyas ?
Look here. czcams.com/video/Fe2c-xbXmi4/video.html, new finding amongs experts. The scientific test on the rocks seems to show that rocks from the first Pyramid (saqarra) were the result of casting of geo materials, they call it geopolymer process. X-ray test showing the rocks contains bubble and the lower density at the upper part of the rock compared to that of the bottom, seem to be valid evidence that rock were casted from materials as commonly found in rock, such as silica. Thats why , as expert said, that man-made rock' seem like and indeed as strong as natural rock.If that theory is accepted amongst expert with further experiment/test,, then you are very reasonable to say the solution must have been different, that what the worker brought up were not rocks, instead it was geopolymer-dough (transported using basket) , look similiar when we see builder pouring concrete to make pillar when building a house. In addition, please notify that up-until now, expert found no gap among stacked stones, no abundant chip of rocks as waste from carving the rocks, no machine and tools (relating to cutting big rock and carving the block) found around the site ,these also indicate that the block of stones were not resulted from cutting and carving stone block.. With the theory of geopolymer, no more question about how and how many labor to brought-up a solid rock weighing tens of tons, and how they smoothly carved 'stones'. However the question about the geometric structure and how to arrange those 'man-made' rock still remain.
Now how about other pyramids like Kufu, were they allegedly built through the same process as explained by theory above? I have no idea
@@anekata217 the geopolymer theory is a fallacy : The fact that this is not true is attested by the presence of nummulite fossils in the vast majority of the stones used in the pyramids and in the rock remaining in the quarry, which is only a few hundred metres away. This rock is a sandy limestone, or if, you like, a limy sandstone. If this rock had been processed as claimed, the fossils would have been destroyed. The other casing stone which has mostly been robbed, was a finer grade limestone from the Tura or Tora quarry just across the river and a little to the south. Easily floated across on barges. The only granite is in the so called Queens’s and King’s Chambers and the load relieving structures above them. The origin of this granite is exactly known.
@@seantice well, it s a new information for me. thank you very much. however, i need to see your reference so i can learn it
This is what Herodotus wrote (translation by G. C. Macaulay): “… This pyramid was made after the manner of steps which some called "rows" and others "bases": and when they had first made it thus, they raised the remaining stones with machines made of short pieces of timber, raising them first from the ground to the first stage of the steps, and when the stone got up to this it was placed upon another machine standing on the first stage, and so from this it was drawn to the second upon another machine; for as many as were the courses of the steps, so many machines there were also, or perhaps they transferred one and the same machine, made so as easily to be carried, to each stage successively, in order that they might take up the stones; for let it be told in both ways, according as it is reported. However that may be the highest parts of it were finished first, and afterwards they proceeded to finish that which came next to them, and lastly they finished the parts of it near the ground and the lowest ranges. …”
Herodotus knew shit. He was also amazed like we are today.
Awesome! THANKS
And he ruins his argument by stating that because "someone" painted Khufu's name inside, it must have been built by Khufu. Even though that's not how Egyptians of that time decorated the interior of tombs........
Pyramid texts weren't used until about 100 years later. There are three names of Khufu in the relieving chambers; they're part of the names of work gangs and were left there by workmen. One is so out of reach even Graham Hancock had to admit it could not have been forged. Dr. Hawass gave him a private tour. Hancock's retraction is on his website.
Jean-Pierre's argument has nothing to do with who built it; his hypothesis has to do with how it was built.
@J C He's a successful architect. He was barely interested in ancient Egyptian history. That's Dr. Brier's forte. Houdin was focused on the construction from an architect's point of view. Craig Smith took a similar approach and even calculated the time and cost to build one today.
There are many lines of evidence establishing the who and when. There's really no argument there and no need for architects and engineers to be able to tell a piece of 4th dynasty pottery from a 5th dynasty pot.
Fascinating and I hope he gets to take that long walk up the internal ramp.
The whole story behind it and the end result is just unbelievably fantastic and exciting at the same time. I don't think the Egyptians managed to do that, at least not on their own or with their own help.
Who or what do you think helped them?

With no computer nor machinery, the Egyptians managed to build the unthinkable. Egyptians were STILL the greatest Architects in the world. Not even the greatest Architects of this days with all the tools they have failed to find how they build the pyramid. Unbelievable.
Quarrying and stacking large stones doesn't even _begin_ to compare to the precision math/manufacturing required for bridges and skyscrapers and not being certain of the _exact_ process is far from not being able to find out how a thing was built... Just because you can look at the Hoover Dam and tell it's poured concrete and rebar does NOT mean you'd be able to know exactly which parts were poured with individual crane loads or a delivery slide/pipe and in what order _thousands_ of years later.

Not to mention move the blocks or even quarry them.
No, today's architects could easily build a pyramid. It's just that we don't know how THEY did it with the limited tools and technology they had. It's not that we can't do it today with our advanced tech. Still though, doesn't take away from how impressive the pyramids are for the time they were built.
@@melodyvalentine8779 That’s a bit of an overstatement. Are we technologically capable of replicating the great pyramid with the exact precision and size? Yes. But only just. That’s the thing: we couldn’t build the great pyramid more precise than they did even with our current technology.
That doesn’t even take into account the engineering in the first place from scratch. Could we build another great pyramid? Yes. Could we engineer another great pyramid? Kinda, sorta, maybe, probably not.
Much respect to M. Houdin and also Mr. Brier and others who helped him.

This is not mine. I saw this in a documentary, but it is a point worth repeating. According to Wikipedia, the Great Pyramid contains an estimated 2,400,000 stones. For the supposed ancient texts to be correct for the Great Pyramid to be built in 20 Years, that means each stone, of an average of 2.5 to 15 tons each (including and especially the 60 ton blocks as well), had to be placed at a rate of: 2,400,000 divided by 20 years = 120,000 stones per year, OR 120,000 stones divided by 365 days = 329 stones per day OR 329 stones divided by 24 hours in a day = 14 stones per hour, OR 1 stone needs to be perfectly cut and fitted in place every 5 minutes - all day, every day, for 20 years straight. That's NOT possible.
The estimate of 20 years for the construction of the Great Pyramid is based on certain assumptions, and it is possible that the actual construction time may have been longer or shorter than that. It is also important to note that the pyramid was not built continuously for 20 years, but rather at certain periods during the year when the Nile floodwaters receded and agricultural work was not possible.
Therefore, while it may seem unlikely that the Great Pyramid was constructed at the rate of 1 stone every 5 minutes, it is important to keep in mind that the actual methods and timeline of its construction are still shrouded in mystery, and new discoveries and research may shed light on this topic in the future.

Amazing to watch , the second time after many years, understood a lot more. the question still remains, how the pyramid not sink at all considering its enormous weight and no foundation as such.
You raise a very important question!
The pyramids are built on bedrock, mystery solved.
From an engineering standpoint, The French architects' methods seem viable. Two things get me. One: The Egyptians new a thing or two about water. To float the stones is much easier than to transport them by dragging them by huge gangs of men even with rollers. They also new a thing or two about mud. I saw an Egyptian drawing in witch a group of men were dragging a block but between the block and the men was a man applying what could have been lubricant.Black Nile delta mud mixed with animal fat or even honey would have made a slick substance. This could be collected behind the block and recycled. Point two: The Egyptians chariot was like a sports car. It had suspension. The wheels placed at the very back for excellent cornering. I've heard of a battle between Egyptian and Hittite charioteers numbering in the thousands. What a spectacle that must have been. Having to joist in a right to right side crossing as most people were right handed. Just like European automobiles are right hand drive to facilitate using the the brake with the stronger right arm. Theories yes.But until the veil of secrecy imposed by conventional Egyptian scholars is lifted we may never know. After all, The pyramids have always been about tourist dollars and to remove the mystery would give away their magic.

Thats interesting, you say Khufu's name was painted on the blocks - but why is there only one block with his name painted on it?
@@ianmarsden8568 There are three. They name three gangs; each one is based on a different form of the king's name. Only one was shown in the video.
@@librarylu proof? "graffiti 'found' by some european guys who blew their way into the pyramid looking for fame" is not proof.
@@iwillroam Why not.? It's true Howard Vyes had his workmen "blow" their way into the "relieving chambers" but the painted cartouches were already there, left at the time of construction.
Sitchin was wrong. Even Graham Hancock had to admit that.
"Cracks in some of the joints reveal hieroglyphs set far back into the masonry. No 'forger' could possibly have reached in there after the blocks had been set in place - blocks, I should add, that weigh tens of tons each and that are immovably interlinked with one another. The only reasonable conclusion is the one which orthodox Egyptologists have already long held - namely that the hieroglyphs are genuine Old Kingdom graffiti and that they were daubed on the blocks before construction began."
Sitchin was pushing his own Annunaki nonsense and the evidence the pyramid was built for Khufu contradicts that.

Another interesting huge pyranid with an spyral internal ramp, can be found in Mexico's Cholula Puebla's pyramid, where the Spanish built a Church on the top
Thanks Great video .
At this rate, we’ll figure out the mysteries of the pyramids in about 100,000 years.
Martymooseyepthatsme 😂😂😂😂👍👍
Maybe that is what we said 100,000 years ago before that too lol.

They could build that magnificent structure, but they didn't know to build a wheel ? A round object that rolls. Really ? Even rough , jagged rocks roll. I dont think so. To damn smart of architecture to not have had wheels.
Wheels were useless in the soft sand and they didn't yet have metal strong enough for the axles. They did have cedar sleds and used them to transport the blocks. Archaeologist Bob Brier explains it in the book he wrote with Jean-Pierre Houdin.
@@thealchemist5761 No Duh. Its the point of the deal.
You hit the nail on the head..there's no way that man had anything to do with this they could not do these things and they are repeated in different parts of the world in ancient times... That how government it has finest trying to put false television programming out to the masses of the peopledid it can't be done by man and it was done by man and this show is going to tell you how man did.
idk a wheel would be pretty useful on those smooth stone ramps.
@Richard Dames Chariots were popular about a thousand years later but in Khufu's time they didn't have metal strong enough for the axles.
@35:01 OMG, I physically backed off when I saw this coming lol. 😂
thank u for shering i can not get enought about the pyramids
Our pleasure!
Didn't a carbon 14 dating test of the wooden staff found inside one of the shafts prove that this was actually built like 500 years before Khufu was born?
It's a fragment, not a staff. Wood was scarce in Egypt and old wood was used for newer things. The dating can show when the tree died but not when the item was made. Other lines of evidence point to the three Great Pyramids having been constructed between circa 2550 and 2490 B.C.
I think it said most wood will be chisel away for other used. So probably not enough sample for carbon date
@@jryek Organic flecks (reed and charcoal) in the mortar used in the interstices have been radiocarbon dated. So has wood from Khufu's solar boat.
The Ancient Egyptians didn't write down dates like we do now. The timeline is based off of the Old testament and we know that there are various degrees of problems with the Bible's accuracy or people's interpretation of it.
Also America is a great nation but do you really think it's going to last for 3,000 years or is the culture and the people going to change dramatically within that time? Note that Ancient Egyptian drawings and the culture pretty much stays the same for 3,000 years. As well as a huge chunk of history is missing.
It's funny to see how they keep assuming their construction methods before looking into the vital details such as; each one of the million stone blocks is individually shaped, nothing like bricks, there are very few stones that are identical in size. Then apply logic to how reasonable the construction really is and start from there...
The core blocks were quarried on the Giza plateau. Red granite was shipped from Aswan and the casing stones from Tura. Quite a bit is known about the stones and how they were shaped and fitted. They were split along natural fault lines and numbered in the quarries so they'd be in the right order at their destination. You might want to read the book by Brier and Houdin. It goes into a lot more detail than the video does.
Thank you for your answer, I am aware of the origen of the stone. I will look into that book, however I doubt it mentions how they actually mapped all 2,5 million different shaped/sized blocks, and fitted them as such, with only one shot, it is something remarkable!:)
Extraterrestrial being it had to be if it’s so hard for us to figure out how tf would they be able to do it
@@BobMarley-np7xh "Ancient Aliens" is not a credible source.
@@librarylu of course!true
So interesting!
Yes, ancient Egyptian that didn't know to build a wheel in those days, knew how to build a pyramid.
It all makes sense now...
