New Robots to Explore the Great Pyramid
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 тра 2024
- The Great Pyramid of Giza continues to surprise us with hidden secrets and intriguing anomalies that have yet to be properly investigated. The visual inspection of the North Face Corridor announced on March 2, 2023 is hopefully the beginning of many more revelations to come.
The ScanPyramids ‘Big Void’ above the Grand Gallery is now more promising than ever before, but reaching this space will be a significant challenge.
Since drilling into the core of the pyramid for 7+ meters to reach the Big Void is a daunting proposition, there are other methods of investigation that can occur which are minimally invasive.
New soft-bodied robots powered by compressed air have the ability to investigate previously-inaccessible areas of the Great Pyramid. Near the Queen’s Chamber a drilling from 1986 by Gilles Dormion hit a large cavity of anomalous sand that has never been explained. Innovative and inexpensive robots can now easily burrow through this sand to determine the physical parameters of this hidden area.
These robots can also be used within the ScanPyramids North Face Corridor, and even the Big Void if an access point is ever found or created.
Please contact me if you have information on Jean-Pierre Baron’s radar survey conducted in the year 2000.

Come visit Egypt with me September 13 - 24, 2023
I am excited to announce I will be joining Matt Sibson of Ancient Architects as a co-host of the Adept Expeditions Tour this September.
Details here: ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxhaA-IzW1SCzgsALl5FeAxtuCuTlUmt2G
It would be good to see "sibsons door" that little nook be explored with a snake robot.
The sand and the wall before I got an answer is the wash off the erosion from the high quality stones in the pyramid itself from rain from over 2 or 3,000 years
What an adventure! You must be stoked.
🎉 cool, cool, COOL! 🎉 Sounds like a great once-ina-lifetime trip. Additionally, made even more wonderful accompanied by Matt! Such an opportunity and experience.
Can’t wait 🙌
I’m 53 and I have no doubts at all that I will not live long enough to see the big void filmed. You would think that someone of Zahi Hawass’s age would be EAGER to get exploring and see what’s in the void before he pops off. But apparently he doesn’t care at all about not living long enough to make this next discovery.
Someone with Hawass's ego thinks he will never die.
Snap I am also 53. 😀.
Maybe because he co-authored with Mark Lehner in 2017 a book called - Giza and the Pyramids: The Definitive History. Emphasis on Definitive.
Oh he'll explore it.. doesn't mean he's going to tell you about it
I don't know enough about any of the men to make a character judgement, but keep in mind that there are reasons why someone may be more concerned with the next discovery proving them wrong than curious about what it may hold.
Assuming everyone is working from the same motivations can mislead from the truth just as much as assuming conspiratorial motivations (and that's not even getting into humans having internally conflicting motivations as we so often do).
I can just hope that the nondestructive nature of future testing prospects helps break through whatever resistance (even if simple institutional inertia) is holding things up. We can do so much more than we used to be able to just a couple decades ago.
Feels like I've been waiting 25 years for this to be done properly. 🙂
Try 2500 👌
@@JonnoPlays haha, touchè 🙂
"I've" been waiting. So your comment is dumb.
It's very similar to waiting for man to return to the moon. I just hope that both happen in my lifetime.
@@mepik15 what's dumb about his comment?
Well one thing is certain, nobody takes this channel for granite. You sir have single handedly ignited my new fascination with the Egyptian pyramids.
Ancient architects also
@@AndrasMihalyi Anyextee for that boots on the ground content!
|I never take channels for granite ! 😂
That the shafts have not been explored with modern imagers is mind blowing.
Absolutely!
They point to specific star constellations. You know, where they came from. Yahweh and the Priests of Amun.
@@astra6712they aren't even straight..
@@limehawk4989 what we do know. The 3 pyramids of Gizeh are aligned with Orion’s Belt. The Nile river represents the Milky Way. The shafts of the Cheops / Khufu pyramid point toward specific star constellations, such as Sirius and Kochab. Question is, why?
I discovered this channel recently & absolutely LOVE it! I had no idea they'd invented non-destructive robots that could explore a sand-filled chamber. I may need to watch nothing BUT channels like this if I'm to get through the next few years...

Your idea with the sand robot exploring existing drill holes is spot on. Easy slam dunk, I hope they use that idea. I've always wondered why the sand is not native and it's never been explained to my satisfaction.
- any idea where the sand may be from ? Is it from a "special place" or is it because it has special structural properties ?
It's the leftovers from carving stones. Easy disposal.
@@panchopuskas1 the ancient architect channel has a video with quite a bit of information about the drilling and the type of sand that they found. I think it's his over an hour video about the great pyramid. It's a really informative and enjoyable video and well worth watching (if you haven't already done so).
@@ryannagy9244 You can't be serious. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@conservingcommonsense4980 But isn't the theory that they did all the carving and shaping of stones at the quarries? In that case they would have just thrown all the leftovers out at that location, instead of carrying it first all the way to and then up the pyramid.
Also, what leftovers do you mean?
Shavings from the stones? Limestone (the bulk material) is mostly calcite and aragonite, not quartz. And granite is only between 20% and 60% quartz (I don't know the exact composition of the Aswan granite they used).
Material that has come off from the tools? Quartz indeed has a Mohs hardness of 7, comparable to granite (again, depending on the granite composition) So using quartz tools would make sense. But any tool splinters would be mixed with shavings from the masonry stones.
And if they used actual hand tools for shaving the stones, we should find more broken tools than tool chippings.
The only explanation that I would accept for why we would find only sand as polishing remains is that they polished the stones with sand. They might even have intentionally dragged the stones over large grained quartz sand to perform the transportation and polishing in a single step. But again, that would mix the dust that came off from the masonry stones with the polishing sand. But in this case, they would already have a reason to sieve out the shavings. (Or maybe the wind would have carried away the fine limestone shavings more easily than the coarse quartz sand. That would be another reason to specifically use large grained sand, or a reason why they only had the large grains left over to dump after the wind had done it's job.) Or maybe they even started out with the local sand mixture and only the hardest component (I assume quartz would be the hardest one) survived being crushed repeatedly by large stone blocks. And having the sand already on the ramp (and thus halfway up the pyramid) would reduce the effort to use it as acassional cheap filling material for gaps compared to sand from the ground level.
honestly the fact that they used bio-mimicry to create those new robots is freaking genius and so awesome.
Bio mimicry has been a point of study in various fields for many years now.
After all nature has produced so many designs over time by process of evolution that reinventing the wheel by searching for purely man made solutions is folly at best.
@@mnomadvfx thinking that “Evolution” designed anything is the folly. I M H O
@@Mr05Chuck look up the peppered moth. Not saying everything can be explained away with evolution, but theres some type of natural selection that occurs and in this case it happened pretty quick.
@Mr05chuck-Sobriety-Songs Thinking you know what evolution is and making such a silly comment, is folly. You apparently think the word 'design' implies conscious choice. But everything was 'selected' _indirectly_ with *those things that were the most adaptable, being the things that survived to breed.* I can't wait to hear your uneducated take on the word selected thinking that too was a conscious choice because you don't know anything about the entire study or the theory. Shame on you, spreading foolish misinformation! What was the last book you read on the subject? I know that has to be none ever, because otherwise you would know better to make such a statement About a simple self evident truth.. Evolution= the best version continues. That's all there is to it. A person should have to read nearly every book on this subject, before they're _allowed_ to comment as I have done.

Cue Zahi Hawass: "We can't trust snakes"
@@Xandros999 he is 75 and doesn't look in great health. He will not always be there to block exploration and new knowledge of old things.
@@maryblushes7189 There will always be a Zahi Hawass. Such types are most likely to get promoted to almost any prominent office, and especially in countries like Egypt.
So excited about this channel!!
If they find a chamber filled with sand. It's on purpose. Sand is heavy, 50 pounds for a small bag. I believe sand would have been used to fill a chamber/void to deaden sound waves. If a tomb robber is looking for a void, they listen for hollow chambers when chipping away the stone. The fact that the sand was not local is a huge clue. It was put there for a reason!
I like to imagine they filled a large space with sand and then built something important on top of it. Let the sand out through a hole from below, and the whole structure above collapses, along with several thousand tons of pyramid. Use coarse sand that won't pack as tightly so once it starts flowing, it won't stop.
I think they simply used sand as filling, easier then fitting stone blocks, reducing the construction time of the whole pyramid
@@AndrasMihalyi ...easier to move a big block than a loads of sand. Sand never makes a good "filler".
If it was just for sound deadening, I would assume it would be local sand. I don't think we can answer what it was for until we know where it is from and what else is in that space, though, so I don't really have a better idea to propose as a counter-proposal, though.
@@dynamicworlds1 ..good point. It may have been used in many ways. But if it is specific sand in large quantities, maybe it was used for cutting/shaping or polishing stone. I wonder if this is a harder, or better sand for cutting than the local sand? It's a clue for sure.
The attention to details and ideas well grounded are A++. Simply the best channel out there about REAL ancient Egyptian mysteries, pyramids and granite! I am proud to have been here since about 6K subs. My congrats, y ou totaly deserve it! Always looking forward new content!
This channel and the Ancient Architect channel are my joint first favorite. They are both awesome at what they do. The Ancient Architect has been around longer so has more content etc. But i must say I've really enjoyed every video that History for Granite has put out and often double check to see if the next video is out yet. I even checked earlier, so i was happy when this one went up a few hours later.
@@Lookoutmedia353 Ancient Architects is an awesome channel as well! Both channels are a must for those that need a good dose of independent research and ideas out of the box.

Have anyone noticed that History For Granite and LockPickingLawyer are never observed simultaneously?
So true 😮😮

Thanks keep up the good work I appreciate you're attention to detail and careful study of previous investigation ! Looking forward to the next installment on the journey ! Peace !
The man somehow has the same puzzle pieces we all have and manages to slot them together whilst mainstream Egyptology is out there bashing them with dolerite hammers.
Freu mich immer wieder von dir eine tolle Dokumentation zu bekommen 😊
I've always wondered why they hadn't done more robotic cameras lately. Especially in the wall holes that don't seem to have an agreed upon explanation.
They should hire some kid, give him an endoscope, and have him go around sticking it in every crack he can find. You never know.
@6:48 "no matter what it might reveal" - There's lies the struggle. Egypt is not yet ready to be transparent. Their gatekeepers keep all the secrets and continue to disguise what mysteries are hidden. However, I do believe that they are barely holding up the last card in their deck of deceit. And when that topples, it will all be revealed. Keep up the great work - It's important !!
If anything they're concealing just how dull the pyramids actually are, and actively try to keep the 'mysterious' side of the story alive for tourism profits...
The entire civilisation was just made up out of nothing. The first real human writings were Cuneiform on Cyrus’ cylinder. Not anything like hieroglyphs and no other culture around the world has used hieroglyphs. The closest to the hieroglyphs was found on the Roswell craft in 1947. They’re definitely not the same related civilisations but most certainly it would contribute more ideas to the conversation.
@@astra6712 Well, that's a plot twist. Until all artifacts previously discovered are unveiled we really only have perhaps half the story at best. I maintain that the Great Pyramid is much more than a simple construct. The how, why, and who built it I believe is already suspected, and protected, by those same gatekeepers who resist new theories and/or discoveries.
@@ritchkelly2829 the pyramids and burial are used to emphasise the exact opposite of what we are as beings ourselves. The Priests of Amun ran EVERYTHING in Egypt. We know the last pole shift occurred around 11,600 BCE And is evident on the base of the Sphinx. So the great flood myth is verifiable. Then there’s Nikola Teslas free energy tower based off of the internal structure of the Gizeh pyramid. Then there’s the dimensions of Noah’s ark which archaeologists want to believe it’s a boat. Then there’s the Baghdad battery and the Antikathera analogue computer found in the Mediterranean. Then there’s the Priests of Amun recollection of the lost landmass of Atlantis. Plato was confused on his story where he described the Minoan civilisation on Santorini when Mount Thera exploded.
Let’s say humans build a Martian civilisation and the earths poles shift in around 7000 years from now. That would disrupt the earths civilisation. Would a human Martian colony be revered as gods as the earth humans would forget the Martian civilisation exists by the 2nd generation after the pole shift.
These past stories tell us the truth of where we came from. It all aligns back to the Big Dipper constellation. That’s where the shafts of the Gizeh pyramid point to, our original planets.
Keep up the great work.. your time and content is valued.
New video. Love seeing these. Thank you for the new content
Science advances one funeral at a time. Might be that we have to wait until Zahi Hawass breathes his last before we can utilize cutting edge technology like this to explore without having to wade through the muck of bureaucracy. Imagine sending these new robots down the various holes drilled around The Sphinx over the years? So much we can learn, and I'm with you HfG, Egypt could really profit quite a lot by just giving these things a shot!
There's nothing under the Sphinx.
Excepted the water table.

As always your video has left me wanting to see the next and even more beyond that it has left me with real hope that these voids will actually someday be viewed. What do you think the large voids may contain ?
It's Khufu's indoor swimming pool for the after life. Either that or his walk in wardrobe.
I'm always hoping to be surprised.
Yay, I finished binging the channel with this latest addition!
(*meaning I had already fully binged it before this upload)
This is my absolute favorite UA-cam channel now.
Looking down on the pyramid top, the gaps between the inner blocks look ideal for non destructive robotic probe. The air tube soft body robot could find it’s way through the 3 dimensional maze and map everything out as it explores every twist and turn. At the very least, this would give clues how the pyramid was built. Imagine a 3D map of cave tunnels with photo imagery of all the exposed surfaces. Now do the same with the Pyramid starting at the top. It might even find a route to the Great void.
UA-cam keeps recommending your videos to me, and I am enjoying them. Hope you don't start talking about space aliens
No chance of that, this guy is legit.
{:o:O:}
Thanks for this brilliant video. I’m so excited by those new robots. 😮
Your videos are truly inspiring. Thank you!
Love the content. I was fortunate enough around 20 years ago to go inside the step pyramid and climb down a very claustrophobic tunnel to see the burial chamber and hole in the wall leading to a second burial chamber. It was a very cool experience. Its an overwhelming experience to the the vast amount of structures carvings and beautiful art. Definitely something Ill never forget.
There are certain details that can't be ignored.
The North air shaft from the King's Chamber is not straight, obviously bending to avoid some internal structure close to the Chamber.
The non-load-bearing block in the KC.
The relieving chamber roof is higher than necessary for the known internal passages & chambers.
These details are among the keys to Houdin's theory, and by far the best scenario offered IMO.
Getting a camera behind that non-load-bearing block in the KC seems the most logical approach.
Fabulous episode! Thank you.
Just breath taking! Yet another beautifully done video.
Love your analysis in your videos! If you haven't already, how about a video where you give your opinion on where else the ScanPyramids technology should be applied? What other pyramids or structures, and why?
I think they're doing preliminary muon-scanning of ALL the big pyramids, but concentrating on the Great Pyramid. I would love to see more scanning done on Khafre's pyramid. It was the very first pyramid to be scanned by this technique, way back in the 1960's I think, but with less sensitive equipment. Khafre's pyramid is almost a twin of the Great Pyramid in size, and the next pyramid to be built. It's tempting to think there might be similar internal passages.
@@scotth6814 Thanks for that info.
All of the Snefru pyramids, as well as Khafre need a full scanning. The Bent Pyramid was used as a control test for ScanPyramds but the sample size was small.
I wonder what other sites outside egypt it could be used on as well?
Not sure how well the sand robot would work with compacted sand under pressure. You think of that robot had to reach 20 meters in and is 10cm in diameter then you have a huge amount of sand that needs to be displaced.
It can't just go up freely like with all the experiments they use it on. If it was going into a completely sealed box with the weight of a pyramid on top it probably wouldn't work as well
Really, really, really rhank you for the channel and alk th de the videos ypuc. Cheers man!
Great presentation, thank you :)
Are they ever explored the north "air shaft" of the king chamber with a bot, as they have done with the queen chamber one? It seems to pass near the big void, and could be an access point for future probing.
If the government allows it
I can only hope that the powers that be that control the excavation and exploration of the Great Pyramid, will grant the kind of work that will allow us all to explore fully the whole of that remarkable structure. If they don't, one can only wonder what it is they are trying to hide. Certainly a bore hole the thickness of a pencil can't be seriously considered damaging if it results in a huge leap of our understanding of the builders of this amazing edifice.
I discovered ur channel just a week or 2 ago but im already highly addicted.
😀Love your sand exploration robot ideas, and it makes sooo much sense on several levels. 😀 Thanks for another captivating video 😀👍
Thank you again for teaching me about all the things I never thought of or would have considered. Cheers!
Ah, a high point for the day !
Great Video
That void space will be difficult to get into. It's in an odd place inside the structure.
If it is a space 120 feet long with no entry points then it was designed to be never opened.
That is if it is a space 120 feet long 12 feet wide.
It was internal tunnel used in building pyramid
@@SoulDelSol If this is a known fact then why would someone need to dig into that space. It has served its purpose millenia ago.
Waste of time.
Great video as always.
As usual, very enlightening and informative. Look forward to seeing what information and conclusions you dig up. I certainly like taking my history for granite. 😉🤓
Couldn't it be that the Grand Gallery was used as a lever to get the granite blocks for the King's Chamber, and they made a basically identical Grand Gallery 10 meters higher for the granite blocks of the chevrons ontop of the King's Chamber? Since the Grand Gallery ends on the "floor level" of the King's Chamber, it only helps so much as a lever for the various granite blocks needed for the roofs of the King's Chamber
sounds pretty legit!
They told the Greeks that they used levers, but that explanation was provided 2000 years after their construction and cant really be verified, which is why how they built them is a controversy. They never left any information as to how they were built, there is nothing. There's only ever been theories of how they did it, no hard proofs. It would be a very logical explanation though.
If a large gallery is just a "lever", then what is the purpose of making it so perfect from a technical point of view? There is a proverb, you heard a ringing but you don’t know where it came from.
The ONLY explanation for the grand gallery is that its is clearly designed for bringing large stones up to the level of the kings chamber. It has all the indices of a functional structure designed for elevating stones, and is large enough for every stone thus far found in the structure. As the pyramid was being built, it could also have been the primary ramp for bringing up 75% of the stones in the pyramid. It makes sense that all the stone for the king’s chamber roof and ceilings was brought up to this level, and then as the pyramid rose around the Kings chamber, those stones moved over to be pulled up a second grand gallery to get them to their ultimate elevations. The top of the ascending layers of the pyramid would have been a staging area for the large stones that had to go further up. So I would say the greatest likelihood is that the void is indeed a second grand gallery used to elevate not just the ceilings and gables, but also a significant amount of the overall mass of the pyramid up to that level. If you continued the newly discovered 2 meter wide vault it intercepts the base of the grand gallery. Given that the pyramid appears to have been re-designed for the higher chamber after construction began, I think the the original entrance was a level continuation of a smaller external ramp that only lifted stones as far as the entrance. Then becoming a roofed over passage to the base of the grand gallery where there was a winch and sled set up to raise 40 tons of stone at a time to the working level of the pyramid. A properly designed winch would have saved tens of thousands of manhours in lifting stones when you consider that the 40 ton capacity necessary for the gables, would have meant each lift bringing 20 plus regular stones up at a time. Unless real evidence emerges of there being an internal spiral ramp just behind the exterior stones, stacked grand galleries could easily have been used to lift most of the mass of the pyramid.
@@randoedits6906They also told them it was built by slaves; but it wasn’t, and that Khufu was a tyrant, which he probably wasn’t.
Is it possible to combine both your ideas here? And use the air filled robotic tube on the north upper chamber shaft. It’s accessible from the outside and if there were any small holes along it’s route near the void surely they could be accessed without drilling.
Tame your wild ways, that's far too awesome for Zahi (or whoever decides) to consider. Seriously though, good idea!
You Channel is the best channel to learn about Egypt. I watch it everyday for multiple times, as I really appreciate your interpretation, suggestions and assumptions. Thank you very much for your hard work and every time I watch your videos I make sure to like and to promote it! it is really the best channel for explaining things! thank you!
thank you very much ,great vid again😀
Will this work if the sand is packed tight within the cavity? Regardless, seems worth a try.
I'll never take this channel for Granite!
I love your work. Great channel 👏
Incredible! Great video
wake up babe History for GRANITE just dropped a new video!
I don't understand why someone doesn't go into the king's chamber, and drill a hole in the wall, to the right of the sarcophogas, about a foot up, or in one of the cracks. According to Oudin, that is the entrance to the rest of the chambers he says we haven't seen yet, the place where all the kings goods would have been stored, and the place where the original funeral procession entered the pyramid during the burial. To me it makes sense, simply because of the kinks in the little side air shafts... plus, didn't some ancient historian say that front entrance is where the procession entered?.... it seems like it would be pretty easy to drill there and either confirm, or lay to rest forever, Oudin's theory of the missing room section. I think Oudin's missing rooms, AND your theory about the 2nd grand gallery (that scan-pyramids seems to confirm) being needed to get the final heady granite blocks that high, could BOTH be true... I am curious to understand your reasons for not agreeing with Oudin here? the measurements make sense... i LOVE your channel! AWESOME content bro!!!!!
sorry, but not only that.... I honestly just do not see ANY other reason for those huge chevron blocks on the north side if it wasn't the funeral procession entrance..... i don't buy that they were just "testing a weight relieving technology"...psh....
Thanks for the Time.
Thank you for your talented work.
So is the Great Void horizontal, or does it slope parallel to the Grand Gallery? You show it both ways.
EDIT: Of course this makes a practical difference, both in the purpose of the void and in the plan to reach it. The drilling proposed in this video COUNTS ON the Great Void sloping downward, so that horizontal drilling is sure to intercept it. As long as the slope is uncertain and the prospects for success are uncertain, you can be certain the Egyptian authorities will not authorize drilling.
You would think the scan results would have shown this. With my engineering hat on, I would expect it to be a counterpart to the Grand Gallery. Did the scan project reliably detect all the spaces within the pyramid that we do know about?
@@polbecca I suspect that the results were too noisy for a clear answer, but I'd rather see the actual data. All the diagrams I have seen have been similar to the illustrations here.
@@polbecca the orientation/slope of the north face corridor was also in question before being filmed, so it seems like the method used to discover the voids only gives us a rough idea. It’s my understanding that the Scan Pyramids team had to aim their tools directly towards the area of a suspected void, so I don’t think they could scan the whole pyramid in one go.
The next civilization will think Lady Arbuthnot built the pyramid in 1837.
Great video as always!
Thank you for this interesting video!
They just need to drill through the plug in the western wall of the King's chamber. That is the escape route, and the way to the other chambers.
Can you do a video on some of the proven methods that were used to shape the stone and transport it
Great work. Thank you.
THANK YOU for making this video! I was wondering about this void given the latest news about the N facing corridor. For me this other void seems so much more mysterious and exciting!
I’m guessing the “big void” was part of an inset ramp running at approximately 26 degrees from the lower North face corridor to the top of the kings chamber. This, of course, would line the exterior features up with the interior features almost exactly, and would make practical sense for the design and how the blocks were stacked in the kings chamber. From there, my guess would be that there was another inset ramp running at a similar 26 degrees approximately 7 degrees adjacent in the opposite direction up to the upper north face feature. Would love to see a probe of the big void.
Utube has an old internal ramp video, an animated simulation of how it was made, with ramp tunnels to get up and thru the pyramid as it was being built up.
The mysterious void above grand gallery is part of the access tunnel sys as well as the passage behind the chevrons over the entrance.
Your idea for the non-invasive robots to explore the pre-existing drill holes is as elegant as it is simple. Let's just hope those in charge of deciding whether to do it or not aren't equally simple...
Excellent video, perfectly done, very informative and exciting, I hope I live long enough to see what’s inside the void , peace ✌️
I enjoy every minute of your videos Thank YOU
I think some of the reluctance to use these non-destructive exploration methods comes from the fear that more and more exploration will be done in all the pyramids, tombs, and monuments. Also don't forget rumors that there are tunnels and mazes that are just below the surface that have been off-limits for exploration for many years, that are said to connect to sites many miles away. The council has always seemed to want to have a timetable on the reveals that they do, so that each reveal brings new and/or renewed tourism. Kind of like the new attraction at an amusement park.
There's been rumors about tunnels for more than 1 century.
Absolutely no one has been able to prove it.
The explorers in the 1800's would've documented them.
Unfortunately the egyptian minister is a little man with a big ego. It's likely he is holding firmly to decades old resentment to anyone he perceives as even the slightest threat to his legacy as 'the big deal' or should we say 'the definitive' egyptologist. So it is unlikely he would allow any discovery in the sand filled tunnels, unless someone can convince him that the glory of the discovery would be attributed to him.
Lol! Yes, great observation. Zewahe has had decades taking his brand of "Giza gate keeping" from obviously pathetic to a veritable art form. He's been carefully planning his retiring legacy from behind the scenes. Hence, when the big discovery day arrives, it will be "chiselled in granite" Zewahe Found Kufu!" Lol! 😂😅😂
Brilliant video. Many thanks.
Thank you for your videos.
Great video as always. I see this video as your way of suggesting how the Egyptian Authorities should move forward. Hope someone with influence there follows your channel.

Thank you for making the best pyramid content on UA-cam
Very exciting developments! Thanks!
So great. Love your vids.
I hope someday they use robots to explore the Great Void discovered by muography. Your idea to start with the areas already drilled is a really good first step. Interesting video, thanks!
Brilliant as usual ⚡️
Excellent video thank you.
Awesome, as always.
I love that way the little sandy robot swells and pops his little head through like 'look at me! I did it! Im the winner!'

My day and the next 15 minutes and 3 seconds just got soooooooo much better. :D
A great documentary, in particular the ending comments, about the importance of publicity of the discovery and preseverance to make the discovery. Remarkable observation!
Good video, please keep it up
Some great alternative ideas, but I won't hold my breath, Cheers.
Drill from the outside. Its massive and unremarkable. The inside is so precious
