    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.

    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!".

      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.

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?

    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.

      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.

      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.

      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 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.

    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.

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.

      Look here. ua-cam.com/video/Fe2c-xbXmi4/v-deo.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.

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?

      the spiral ramp is clever, but I have an issue, if they didnt have the wheel, they couldnt have made a pulley system.. so either they had the wheel, or this pulley system didn't exist. everything else here makes the most sense I have seen thrown out there yet however.

      It wasn't written up. That doesn't mean it wasn't noticed. Houdin was intrigued because it was located where a notch (the 9th) should be.
      IIRC, Bob Brier said he'd been there some 50 times. He'd climbed the pyramid but to the top, with students. The French team explored it but their measurements didn't match up.
      The book has much more detail on all this. I've barely started reading it but I can see already it answers many of these questions.
      "At the beginning of 2003, Jean-Pierre had another meeting with the French Opération Khéops team that surveyed the Pyramid. He described the theory of the internal ramp in detail and mentioned the angle of incline and the notches at
      the corners that had to be left open so the blocks could turn the corners. One of the team members, Jean-Pierre Baron, remembered something peculiar he had seen when taking measurements up and down the Pyramid. At about 275 feet up the Pyramid, on the northeast corner, was a notch! This was essentially where the Houdins’ theory would place the ramp’s ninth notch! The French team measured the notch when they were doing their study and mentioned that it was seven feet six inches on each side-a square. In ancient Egyptian terms that translates to five cubits square, a perfect Egyptian measure.
      The internal
      ramp theory now had its second empirical confirmation, but there was more to come. Baron also remembered seeing a desert fox disappear into a hole next to the notch. Why would a fox climb 275 feet up the Pyramid to find a hole? Perhaps it didn’t. Perhaps it found an entrance hole to the ramp near the bottom and then made its way up the ramp. It would be interesting to attach a telemetry device to a fox and send it through the hole and track its movements. Would it show the animal moving through the internal ramp?

      The enigma of how the Pyramid was built was just the thing.
      He & his father already figured it out how it most likely was built before they ever set foot into the Pyramid.

    Very interesting video. However, if you do the calculations, they had to move over 3,000 blocks per day. Even if they worked around the clock, with different worker shifts, that would be 125 per hour. To me, that means that they likely had multiple methods. We now know that even a single person can lift a block that weights 20 tons using simple leverage tools like simply a few weights that a single person could carry from one end of the block to the other and a central set of wooden beams, where they insert additional beams as the block teeter totters from side to side. With this method, they could have many small crews, perhaps only three or four people each, all around the pyramid lifting blocks from one level to the next. This method would require the casing blocks to be installed last, but if they could carefully place the casing stones to be perfectly aligned, then they could have placed the stones directly underneath them perfectly aligned as well. In fact, even in this video they describe that the stones directly behind the casing stones were perfectly aligned and cut with greater precision that the stones in the inner layers. This gives evidence that the layer just inside the casing stones was of great significance.

How can you be sure you know the truth if the wealthy are hiding it? if you say the wealthy are hiding the truth and this is true, then you must be wealthy yourself, otherwise the truth would've been concealed from you by the wealthy. But if you're wealthy, you must be hiding the truth, so your claim that the wealthy are hiding the truth is in fact a falsehood.
      But similarly, If you aren't wealthy, you couldn't possibly know the truth, since the wealthy have naturally hidden it from you, You are not capable of perceiving the difference between truth and falsehood at all, so your claim is again false.
      Conclusion: Some people are under the delusion that the wealthy elites are the only ones with access to the truth, which they have the power to hide from everyone else including those who claim this situations exists. The logic of their claims proves they are suffering from a neurotic delusion concerning reality which they indirectly admit renders their assertions to be patently absurd and irrelevant, yet which they continue to assert..
