The scammers, hustlers and dodgy cops of the Pyramids are the absolute worst parts of Egypt's world wonder! They were hard to avoid, but luckily the kind Egyptian people really made my day!
Today is the much anticipated day! FNALLY, I got to go to the great pyramids! All my life I have wanted to see this world wonder, however, I did not have high hopes since I was told the scams and touts get very annoying and aggressive. It is true they exists and they get annoying, but if you are smart and have your wits, you can just say no until they move on.
The locals here made my day! Lots of them stoped to talk and take photos. But after a few photos, the most puzzling thing happened. I was about to take a photo with a local, until a cop called him over and told him he couldn't take a photo with me, I questioned why and he simply said it's not allowed and it is against the rules. This was very puzzling to me, the locals were not bothering me and I enjoyed the company. Cops suck :(
INSTA: YABOYSEAL
They do not accept to be photographed because they defraud you of the prices of tickets and bus rides. They take double or triple the price from you.
So what? You absolutely have to film them instead of simply saying no thanks?
@@bobsaint9272elaborate
@@bobsaint9272soooo they’re scamming people and don’t want to accept the consequences of being known as a scammer
You technically need written consent to take a photo of an Egyptian.
I don't think he knew how many times they tried to pocket rob him 😂
Everything this guy does screams MARK. HE'S literally asking to be scammed, he's obnoxious. Talking about "public streets" and photography, it isn't America with a constitution and police to protect him. Gonna get hurt
Pyramids were made with cymatics sound and vibration matching frequencies acoustic levitation. And stone masonry
Yeah he thought all these kids wanted pictures with some random tourist, NOT they wanted to pick them pockets
Hahahahaha he insisted. On taking the pictures and the COP SAYS NO,,, CAUSE THE KIDS WERE GONNA ROB YOU
@@FreqsandVibes But mainly acoustic levitation
Noice
Looks like a horrible experience. Thanks for the warning.
It's horrible if you're obnoxious like him
Don’t base your experience off one UA-camr, do your research. I know that and I’ve never been there myself.
@@soyjeffe__ I’ve been there, it’s horrible
@@luisgarcia-ru3sq You have to be obnoxious or else the scammers will tear you apart
I feel like if you dress like the locals they'll leave you alone. Dude kinda stands out as a tourist

Ignorant as any other Western people ;)
Hahhaa
there’s pyramids in latin america
@@dancam5812and? They are in egypt
14:55 that kid was actually a snake who went to the cop and said that you’re filming them. The cop is not saying that you can’t take pics with locals, he’s telling you that you can’t film the kids without their permission because that kid tried getting you in trouble.
Very confusing situation. Considering the kid was with some other kids who were taking photos with me and I just thought he wanted a photo as well. All good tho
@@sealontour I think he was just a bored kid who wanted to create a situation. You handled it well though 👍🏼
@@sealontour Youre the best vlogger not letting things slide
@@sealontour pickpocket group, didn't like to be videotaped once they realized, thats what i think

Going to Cairo was the most irritating thing ever. You can't be left alone without idiots trying to get something from you or annoy you. Never again
I wanna tell even Egyptians local when go to famous places in Cairo they got scammed but if u go for local places and another cities I till u won't pay a dollar for eating and drinking
From my experience Cairo is deemed pretty chill if you're comparing it with central-southern Egypt. (Luxor, Aswan) The hassling there is on another level..
If they approach you, its already a scam

@jhg7943 actually 106
You did a great 👍 job not following that scammer. Once you follow him, he's gonna say he showed you around and he wants u to pay him.
Ahaha thanks buddy exactly
Or lead you to a spot that’s secluded and him and the homies rob you knowing you’re not allowed to have a fire arm
Well then you just say “no”
@@zeuszo_o1593Yeah like I can understand feeling pressured/awkward I get really anxious but if the guy said ‘for free’ multiple times to me I’d absolutely be like ‘no lmao wtf’ and walk off. It’s not like someone able to enforce it wouldn’t know about the scammers. That’s why I wonder if it’s more complex/involved theft or something, idk
Ain’t no way bro guessed 250 blocks even when he was close up 💀
I think there are 250 blocks, at least. The other 2.3 million blocks were wondering when he would realise.
Bro thinks he owns Egypt 💀
The real crime is how many people were wearing hoodies in the desert
That one kid has a full on winter jacket on. Like what??
Guess u never traveled b4...cuz it can get cold and windy in the desert believe it or not and some of them are not used to cool breezes 😅
i could be mistaken but there is some logic to wearing long sleeves in extremely sunny locations. not sure about HOODIES but long sleeves can protect against sun burn
If you put the hood up... Wham bam wallop, you've got a sun hat and scarf combined.
Low IQ, you know the desert isn’t necessarily hot it’s just dry and sunny but can be chilly
Love the honesty of UA-camrs, you can never get that from travel agencies..
The police told them not to take a pictures with you because he doesn't want them to bother you. I blame this on the language barrier.
As a tourist, the police at the pyramids are great and very respectful..they told me how to avoid scammers and what the real prices were, they were awesome 👍🏻.
14:07 left man hanging so he shook his own hand 😂😂😂😂😂
That's what am saying
Bro, great way to handle yourself. Scammers ruin every vacation I’m in. I found that knowing a few sentences in their language is helpful to get rid of them faster.
What sentences? Curious minds need to know!!
@@Thecryptidsleeps No thank you. I don’t need it. Where is ….? I already have a guide
People say aliens built them and others say egyptians nowadays are not the same as ancient egyptians, but i say there is no people that are crazy enough to build those things other than Egyptians
Hahah fair!
Allien built pyramids !!!🤔
So funny 🤣
Scares me *walks right up to the camel 😂 you just a tad bit 😁💪🏿💯
idk about aliens ut its sure that nowadays egyptians are completely different than ancient egyptians, now they are all arab lol
It was also created for religious purposes. It's a simple look up away along with other explanations to different things
0:14 the taxi was saying ( you got change ? ) he is not trying to get more 😂😂😂😂
You know a very funny thing? Nowadays Egyptians believes they are related with the ancient Egyptians but this is completely FALSE they are arabs the ancients were real genius
U are uneducated. Speaking Arabic doesn’t make u arab by blood
Ever herd of fucking Qatar dubai theirs more but those are 2 of the richest Arab countries in wealth minerals and resources fact check that they don't need to fake being genius because they were born fucking genius free health care better housing they make the US look like fucking shit process that that 😅
They make 103.2 billion more then the US every year 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 were fucking jokes buddy
No they are not Arab they are Arabic speakers

😂😂😂😂 I must say that you are smart@@GrumblyAirMonk
14:05 that poor man who didnt get a handshake 💀💀💀
You're just a LITTLE bit off on your number of blocks guess...
Taking the Great Pyramid of Cheops as an example:
It is 449 ft (137m) high. That is just less than half the height of the Eiffel Tower in Paris (984 ft / 300m), but a good 150 ft taller than the Statue of Liberty in NYC (305 ft / 92m).
Each side of the base is approximately 756 ft (230m) long, and the entire base covers an area of about 13 acres. For reference, an acre is 43,560 sq ft, or the equivalent of a square about 209 ft on each side.
As far as blocks go, there are 2,300,000 blocks in the Great Pyramid, each one weighing an average of 2.5 tons (2.3 metric tons). That's 5,000 lbs, or 2,260 kg, which is about the size of a mid-sized pickup truck.
The mathematics and feats of engineering that went into building the pyramids are AMAZING, even by today's standards...and remember, these structures were built between 2600 B.C. and 1500 B.C....in other words, 3,500 to 4,600 years ago.
HOW they were built has been debated and changed with our evolving understanding of Egyptian society and their capabilities. Anything that is not 100% certain often ends up creating conspiracy theories and crazy ideas...like aliens or superpowered beings.
In reality, they used thousands of slaves (guesses put the number anywhere from 20,000 to 100,000 per pyramid), for up to 2 decades to build each pyramid.
Blocks were floated down the Nile on barges from the quarry where they were created, which was about 500 miles to the south, to the build sites during the 4-month flood period each year, and then hauled up to their positions using ropes, pulleys, rollers and levers...using a giant ramp made of brick, earth and sand that was added to piece by piece as the pyramid grew in height.
But the math had to be EXACT, the angles PERFECT, from minute one til they were completed. One small mistake lower down would compound with each level, until they became impossible to fix by the time you reached the top. On the Great Pyramid, for example, each of the 4 corners of the pyramid had to rise at precisely 51.6°, CONSISTENTLY, or they would not meet at the top like they eventually did.
Even today, with our modern technology, building methods and knowledge of mathematics, engineering and so on...we would be hard-pressed to create a pyramid like the ancient Egyptians did. We have created pyramids like the Luxor Hotel in Vegas, out of metal, steel-reinforced concrete, and glass...but we're not trying to build them out of 2.5 ton blocks of limestone that we have to haul 500 miles up a river, then haul up an earth and brick ramp BY HAND as much as 450 feet in the air.
And the Egyptians weren't the ONLY ones building pyramids, either--multiple cultures across Central and South America also built their own unique pyramids.
For example, the Incans of Peru built pyramids as early as 2,600 B.C., around the same time period as the Egyptians. The Mayans, who lived in what is now known as modern-day Mexico, also built pyramids, but much later--around the 3rd to 9th century A.D. (201 A.D. to 899 A.D., give or take).
As awesome as the pyramids were, there were DOZENS of other structures built across the ancient world that didn't survive to modern times, but which were equally as amazing. Many are currently referred to as the "7 Wonders Of The Ancient World".
There have been different lists, depending on who you ask and when...but the TRADITIONAL list includes:
Great Pyramid of Giza
Colossus of Rhodes
Lighthouse of Alexandria
Mausoleum at Halicarnassus
Temple of Artemis
Statue of Zeus at Olympia
Hanging Gardens of Babylon
Of those 7, the Great Pyramid of Giza is the only one that still exists today.
From the descriptions and estimates of size (especially the Colossus of Rhodes, Library of Alexandria and the Hanging Gardens of Babylon), I think they would rival or even surpass the pyramids for the wonder they would generate if they were still around today.
The ancient world, Roman and Greek Mythology, and History in general, were always my favorite and best subjects in school, and I have continued to study and learn about them long after my schooling was done. 😊😊😊
Egyptologists have discovered that they were built by labourers not slaves. The old testament is not a historical document.
🤓
Thank you for taking the time to write it all. Cheers from Brazil
I wish I could've seen the Library of Alexandria
@@supremebuffalo6322 I wish I could have seen ALL of it in its prime, honestly. The Library At Alexandria (along with the Lighthouse, which was considered to be one of the 7 Wonders while the Library WASN'T...which, to me, BOTH should have been on the list), the Colossus of Rhodes, and the Hanging Gardens of Babylon especially.
It was said that the Library at Alexandria contained every bit of collected knowledge in the known world on papyrus scrolls, knowledge that was mostly lost for centuries until future scientists rediscovered things, or redid experiments, and so on. The Lighthouse was constructed under the rule of Greek Ptolemy II, who became Pharoah of Egypt, and oversaw much of that country's enlightened period and scientific advancements.
The Colossus of Rhodes was supposed to be approximately 105 feet tall, making it the largest statue ever constructed in ancient times. There were debates on how it was built and where it stood--some accounts said it straddled the entrance to a harbor, but modern thinking dispelled that theory.
Most likely, it had a pedestal close to 60 feet wide, and the statue itself was made of stone, covered in bronze and other metals made from melting down weapons that Rhodes' enemies left behind in their defeat. Unfortunately, it onlu stood for about 5 1/2 decades (280 BC to 226 BC), until an earthquake snapped it at the knees. Later, further destruction took out what was left of it.
And the Hanging Gardens of Babylon supposedly contained flowers and plants from every corner of the known world, and were so extensive that they stood 75-80 feet high, and covered an area 56 MILES LONG. For comparison's sake...the island of Manhattan is only 13.1 miles long. So imagine 4 Manhattans, end to end--THAT'S how big the Gardens were. They were supposedly built around 600 BC, several centuries before the Colossus...but ironically, they were destroyed by the exact same earthquake in 226 BC that felled the Colossus.
The earthquake mostly affected the area around Rhodes, but was one of the 10 worst recorded earthquakes in the history of the world. Modern estimates place it at a 7.2 on the Richter Scale. The death toll was too high to count, and the destruction was widespread. This was long before modern anti-earthquake construction techniques, obviously, so the vast majority of structures couldn't withstand the quake.
This is a brief Wiki article about the earthquake:
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/226_BC_Rhodes_earthquake
And THIS one is a breakdown of how the 7 Wonders of the Ancient World were destroyed (except for the Great Pyramid of Giza, which is the only one still standing):
www.wearethemighty.com/mighty-history/how-wonders-of-the-world-were-destroyed/
This article describes what the Library at Alexandria contained, according to estimates, and the significance both the Library itself, and Alexandria as well, had in the ancient world, and how many scientific, artistic and other great works resulted from those who walked its halls:
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Library_of_Alexandria
To me, the ancient world is a mystery, wrapped in an emigma. It has always fascinated me. If I had a time machine, and could go back and observe any time periods I wanted...the first 2 I would choose would be the 60s...and then Ancient Greece, Rome and Egypt.
History and Mythology were 2 of my best subjects in school, and I still like to read Homer's Iliad and The Odyssey on occasion (although my ability to do so in the original Latin has gone by the wayside in the decades since I learned how). But to see these structures in their prime, not wiped out or ravaged by time and the elements...THAT would be the most amazing journey I could ever imagine undertaking. 🙂🙂🙂
Do you do any research about the country before going there instead of assuming the laws and culture are the same as the wherever you're from? Egypt actually did have a ban on street photography until sometime last year, so saying "it's a public street," is like, yeah duh, that's why you're not supposed to do that. Restrictions still actively remain in place for children and you definitely recorded that kid and broke the law, you're lucky you didn't have any police interaction
People like this guy don’t give a sh** about the local laws. Thats the vibe I get from him. Doesn’t matter if he thinks it’s BS. The local law is the local law, respect it or don’t be there.
Those kids wanted pictures to give the drop on you 😭😂 no wonder all those people came up to you
they were pickpockets
I know at least 3 of those kids pickpocketed him while pretending to take a picture 😂
I came to watch scammers at the pyramids. Left knowing M. Salah is tne real Pharaoh
You can tell the kids even are trying to find an angle to get a dollar out of tourists! Like the kid in sunglasses
As an Egyptian, I am telling you, you are wrong and the pyramid scammers don't represent even 1% of Egyptian population.
Nothing better than having some one that actually lives there show you around. You went to the pyramids but you didnt go to the pyramids.
You wouldn't have had much of a problem if you didn't yell hi to everyone you walked past. You make a huge scene. Keep a low profile with your head down. Don't talk to anyone. You would have been fine.
People said hi to me and I responded. I’m a nice guy, if people wanna talk to me I’m going to talk to them. Low profile sounds lame
@@sealontour then don’t complain about the response.
@@jalapenovibes I never complained...

Love the content! Thank you for sharing ✌🏻
Thank you for watching :)
What where the guys at 6 mins in upto? Thinking pickpockets surely? There are plenty of tourists in that spot so it's not like they haven't seen a white man before.
He said they wanted a picture because his jersey but they definitely tried to pickpocket him a few times
The kid was complaining to the cop that you were filming him, you completely misread that entire situation. 😂
such a weird situation considering all his friends asked for photos
I’m from the UK and was reading the foreign office travel advice for Egypt and it states “You are not allowed to take or share photographs that could be considered damaging to the country’s image. You can only take photographs of Egyptian citizens if you have their written permission. Do not photograph officials without their consent. Taking pictures of children is not allowed.” I assume this is accurate as it’s on the government website. So my guess is that kid was trying to create an issue and what the police officer said was actually correct. Very bizarre though.
Did you say 250 stones ? Dude the pyramid is made of over 2mil stones weighing each over 2.5 tons
Pretty sure all the picture request is to mark you as a target 😂
Reason they want to take pictures with you is so they can pickpocket your ass
You are BOLD for going anywhere in Egypt without a guide 😂
9:12 Wha! small world. Dale Philip took that camel ride ‘’Mickey mouse’’ and yes they tried to scam him. I don’t know how to link videos, but it’s his most popular one.
If there’s anything I have learned from traveling, is simply nod no, and go on your way.
You officially have the biggest balls in Egypt lol. I laughed so hard. You actually said who am I offending? The aliens lmao
Also, about the issues you ran into about taking photos...I looked it up, and apparently, they used to have a LOT of strict rules about public photography, only SOME of which was relaxed by the government in August 2022.
Some depends on what KIND of camera you're using. If you're just taking pictures with your cellphone, you're generally fine. Larger and more professional cameras often require permits to use in public, and especially in more private settings.
Certain things are expressly forbidden, such as taking photos of police, military, or places that have strategic importance (like the Aswan Dam, for example). Another no-no is taking photos of children (though what ages are considered children were not exactly specified). That may be why the cop gave you a hard time, and the kids walked away from you.
Breaking certain rules involving photography can result in punishments that include heavy fines, confiscation of equipment, even imprisonment. And jails in Egypt are no joke.
This quote is from the article linked below, which has some pretty good info on photography in Egypt:
"While photography in public places and on the streets of Egypt is now allowed, this change in the rules does not mean that you photograph whatever you want. It’s wise to avoid taking photos of the police or anything that could be considered of strategic or military importance, such as the dams in Aswan. Punishment, even for innocently taken photos, can be imprisonment.
Taking photos of children is not allowed and snapping photos of adults requires their written consent."

word
I gave u disslike
ithink the problem is when tourist think their home countrys rules applyto the country they are visiting
@mrolliepoper Partially. The bigger part is the fact that far too many people do not properly research other countries they're planning on visiting, to see what local laws, customs, or other issues might apply to them.
For example, in certain countries, the typical hand wave we use is considered a high insult to many traditional people. In others, drinking, or eating certain foods, is considered sacrilegious (like eating beef in parts of India, where cows are considered sacred...which is why in burger joints there, burgers are not made out of beef).
So it's always best to know what things are acceptable or not if you're going to visit another country, and plan on going off on your own. If you're on a guided tour, you're usually paired with a guide who knows the area, and the customs, so they can protect you from yourself.
you're a local kid, really think they would be hanging out all day there? every big group asking for photo is trying to pickpocket you
Very incorrect. The kids simply want photos. I am Egyptian and I know how Egyptians are and I understand what they are saying. The pyramids scammers don't represent the Egyptian population.
14:09 the guy shaking his friends hand because you shook everybody but his 😂
As a fellow Egyptian all I can say is.. Welcome to Egypt The most horrible place ever :D
I don't know only one people who was at the pyramids without a problem of crooks and lack of respect, insults etc.
I couldn't get through 4 minutes. This dude sounds so empty headed😂
Moaning & whinging all the time ! Even about Peru ! Insufferable !
14:02 bro left him hanging
You stand next to someone and blow your cigarette smoke infront of their face and he gets mad at you and say stop would you tell him I'm on a public street? Just be careful in public. One or two guys with a camera being a bit awkward is a bit creepy, and people will tell you to stop. It's a normal thing to do, you have to admit.
Totally agree with you - he’s ignorant and rude 90% of the time and shoves his camera in peoples faces lol. Has no respect for the people there
He wasn’t blowing smoke in anyone’s face. He was recording. Also, I would be on edge with the scammers as well. Because of the scammers, I assume everyone going up to are behaving in bad faith. Maybe it’s unfriendly, but the Egyptians that live there created that environment, so if they are offended, they should stop scamming people.
@banyasbeansofficial6484 Smoke in the face was a metaphor. You know what that is right? Because if you do then your comment is weird.
@CELINExDION He wasn't really shoving the camera in people's face. But the Smoke metaphor is the best I got from the top of my head lol
@@banyasbeansofficial6484 yes!🎉
Bro the international exploring with Josh
😂😂😂
I am not sure whether there is a law for that or not. But in the middle east there is a general understanding to not record people if they don’t want to be recorded even in public and especially if there are women.
I don't think there's a for for that...
There is . . . again as an american its widely known we arent liked or any westerner for that matter since we thunk our laws go for there. Christ most have laws against profanity or just loud talking i. MOST PUBLIC areas.
in germany youre also not allowed to record someone without consent
I'm sure the issue is taking pictures with MINOR children without parents consent, ANYWHERE you go.
The people staring at him in the background of the recordings lol
Yeah it was almost everyone in the back round was staring at him in some shots.
"This is a public street i can record!!"

"Mucho Gusto" to Egyptian kids is awesome!
Why do you continue the conversations with the scammers? I'd just walk away
From most videos i seen theyll continue to follow you from a distance. Once they find their mark theyll try an keep tabs on you.
Some camel owners offer a ride away from the pyramids for just $2 or $3, but when it’s time to return, they demand $100!

Is this an act you are putting on, or are you really act this stupid in a foreign country. And the fact that you said 150 “blocks” OMG I just hope this is an act

The pyramids were built by tourists who were told by scammers they would show them around, and then when they couldnt pay, they had to work off the tour by moving heavy blocks by hand. 😂
This is exactly the tourist I avoid at all cost. Goes to the Pyramids and doesn't understand or know what he's even seeing.

Good video you seem to be enjoying yourself especially solo in Egypt! I got a question how much money do you think I should have in my savings before I start traveling?
It really just depends what you wanna do, some people save no money and just work as volenteers and get by with any means, some travel in luxury. Just find what you wanna do and see the average cost of things mulitplied by the amount of time you wanna leave for
500-1000 for a good trip 1200+ for luxury
depends also on how long you stay, i bring abt 1500 for clothes jewelry, things to do ect and i stay with my boyfriend and his family so i don’t have to worry about housing but i would recommend a hostel cause u most likely would have other solo travelers around you and the hostels usually host events for their guest. if you want to rent an apartment for a month it’s abt 600 but make sure it has a update kitchen and ac oh and it’s on the 3rd floor up
Ngl this makes me not wanna even bother trying to visit
What a bad country to visit, I’d never visit this place.
Not a place I would ever go back to. It seems to be the culture to hassle and try to scam tourists. You never get peace to see anything with the constant hassle anyway.
@purplepoppyz Can't imagine a day in the life of one of these scammers just chilling around the pyramids finessing rich american tourists everyday, must be something else
@cdrealist9398 well if you leave your pride at home and enjoy begging only with menace, then yeah you might enjoy it though mostly tourists from everywhere know the deal now and few are taken in by them. Fewer and fewer tourists go to that horrible country anyway. The worlds a big place. Lots of nicer places to visit.
What's bad about it? You know the pyramid and tourist spot scammed represent less than 0.5% of the Egyptian population, right?
I feel like if you use a little tone in your voice to show you’re not gonna take their crap they’ll walk off, cuz once he was like “I don’t want it DUDE take it KEEP IT” he walked away RQ

And what of the boys, he ran into several groups i wonder what the translation is
An introvert's nighmare. Not sure why you were surprised about "no resting, just pictures" rule in that spot though. People from all over the world pay big money to visit Egypt and take nice pics of pyramids among other things. And then there are people like you that take good spots for pictures for a long time, not taking pictures. It's not a camping ground.
Just send undercover cops once a month to arrest them its not that hard. Its crazy how the government lets this happen
arrest them under what charge?
1. i really don’t think egypt has the police force to spare.
2. what they are doing is technically not illegal i think in egypt. it’s aggressive and scummy sure but egypt does not have the same laws the us or canada might have

They see Americans and immediately just say whatever word that comes first😂 Seal: Whats your horses name? Girl: 567 E. Albuquerque
There are still many hidden spaces under the Egyptian pyramids

Lmao fr xD
The scammers r crappy but I didn’t like his vibe either after this
My exact experience 😂
thank you for putting Egypt in a high place ❤❤❤
Cuz im from Egypt
Just by curiosity... How do that people scamm you? I only know they then say "its not free" because people say that. But when that happens you cant just say "i dont care, you say free bye"?
I never understood why.
Some people can’t resist a bit of pressure and don’t know the fair price, so end up giving too much.
why did i wrote that in a such awfull english? I swear im not that bad at it 😭
I missed the part where you ranked countries from meanest to friendliest.
Great channel bro. it's going to GROW
Thank you sir :)))
the sad reality is the scammers always learn and adapt consistantly. it will never stop.
@@sealontourit’s not to tho…your a pathetic princess
@@PatrickAung93It's not just egypt, there's even more scammers in just one city in the US than Egypts entirety, only capitalism has refined it to be as effective and discreet as possible on the largest scale. People worry about these small time sleight of hand artists and treat it like a crisis while back in their home country they get their pockets bent backwards and actually enjoy it, blows my mind lol. I salute these street hustlers the real monsters are back in america they've grown to be behemoths and have the govt stamp of approval.

Alright here comes the pyramids fact!!
So no one would actually wanna risk their life to build these pyramids that probably took around 15-30 years to finish, so Egyptian workers/ slaves were forced to build the pyramids we see today. You bet lives were sacrificed building these. This all took place in 2550 B.C. when the great pharaohs were in charge. Why did they build the pyramids? They were built for Pharaohs, who were ancient Egyptian rulers. More specifically they got buried in the pyramids with a few of they're items, the most common being gold. and jewelry. They did this because death was a big deal back in the day especially if u were one of the high classes like the ancient Egyptian rulers, and pharaohs.
Ofc this is all just a small introduction to the history of the pyramids if even that. There's a lot more to uncover.
P.S., I think it's disrespectful to walk on these since a lot of lives were taken while building these pyramids as well and some important people threw out our history. walking over that as if it's just a normal slope isn't really respectful.
Did he say 250 lmao

They said not resting, because they want you to walk, so they can offer the camels
They be sneaky
damn that's so annoying. I'd definitely be pulling a reflective travel moment™ there too and try to ignore him. But then in a place like this I'd be nervous if I really was breaking a rule
