I wouldn't believe it if one says they know everything about Egypt and its history. No way! There's just too many mysteries and romance in Egypt! My favorite land!

[FuctByTheGovernment]

The most amazing part is how they keep on calling these things burial Chambers when there's never been a body found in them

[bobcoulon]

We don't know the truth, the history channel hates to admit it...

[ancientsitesgirl]

This is why I love Egypt! <3 Behind all the world's greatest buildings there is a mystery... generally unrelated. Soon I'll be back there to shoot more videos on my channel 🎥

Highly doubt they’ve used mud ramps. Just say “we suspect”

[MARLEYDIDIT]

placing heaving multi-stone ton stones via "mud ramps"?!? uh yeah, all you do is sink in mud, I call shenanigans ...

[ThexBorg]

You forgot the part about carving granite with copper tools which would be impossible for those people.
The proportions for the site are for a humanoid 3 times the height of a modern human.

[piconano]

These dudes were working in diapers 2:28, when shoes, pants and shirts was not yet invented, but you want me to believe they had the math skills to build these monumental buildings?
Why did the pharaohs all had cone-shaped heads and hid their alien heads inside crowns and hats?

[ralphgreenwood]

A bunch of foolishness.They don't know how or why the ancient Egyptians did anything.

[gamefuse]

Honestly If Egypt was all new again it would be better than most cities

[andyhill]

The angle they would need for a ramp to build the pyramids would have been to steep and bigger than the pyramid itself if it was done that way and also the mudbricks would have just crumpled under that weight. That is just coming from someone who just straight believes everything the Egyptologist say, Modern Engineers, stonemasons, Geologists, and metallurgist's all agree that they would have needed much higher forms of technology like equivalent to us or better in some cases. There is no way that those could have been build in the time and fashion that they say for example the Great pyramid apparently only took 20 years to build and keep in mind thats pretty much the time frame to build everything in Egypt but it has over 2.5 million stone blocks and is the structure that is the most true galactic not earth North, South, East, and west. There is so much we dont know and if you want to really see how crazy some things are I would recommend UnchartedX to start with

70 tons equals 2 and a half boxcars that's amazing!

[kogi]

The “tomb burial chamber” is actually a healing device. You lay down in the coffin and gently hum and the sound bounces off the walls, getting louder and louder until it’s practically deafening but it’s a form of meditation actually.

[bobcoulon]

She doesn't know anything about mud ramps.

[RicoCorbata]

Once again, tons of misinformation and myths passed along as "facts."

[adeduma]

According to the professor of logic, if you don't own a doghouse, you must be one them spreaders

[onsiteelectricianscott]

We need to rebuild them and see what type of device it is

[RAM_.]

It's all lies... the Egyptians didn't build that, and they don't know how.. it's all just theories

[SeddikChannel]

It would be great to do a feature on Hemiunu, the pharaoh's chief architect.

[gamefuse]

I wonder what Egyptians would of done with modern construction tools
