Reminder: We STILL Have No Idea How Ancient Egyptians Constructed the Pyramids

Ancient Egyptians mysteriously moved 80TON stones 500 MILES, and then Lifted/Stacked them 350ft above ground level. These stones are but a FRACTION of that weight...

If these truckers had just used rope and wooden poles, things would have been fine....lol

I remember seeing a video critiquing Jimmy on this exact video, the guy said "of course you can't use a little 2, 000lbs truck to move a 5, 000 lbs stone, you have to use thy right tools for the job"

He's right, but then that means that the ancients were even more advanced because if they did use heavy machinery actually needed, it's actually even more impressive!

Until archeologists can satisfactorily replicate a walled example of multi-ton, mortarless, interlocking, polygonal stone masonry using ONLY the tools proposed from the initial (assumed) time period of megalithic construction; I’ll continue to consider alternative history timelines and value the opinions of engineers and other trade professionals over theirs.

Oh, well, you see, after cutting the giant stones (made of the hardest granite, and basalt) from the Earth, using soft copper chisels and rocks of softer stones, they poured water on the ground and moved the giant stone blocks on trees cut down from... uh... well, somewhere else, where there were trees (we don't know where these trees were, but that's a story for another time), by sheer manpower. Then, after they moved these giant blocks hundreds of miles, and over mountains, they built ramps out of sand, and dragged them up with the water trick, and ropes. Yeah, right. And Hawass didn't loot every burial vault he came across, and sell the goodies on the black market either. "There's nothing in there! No reason for you to go inside! No, you can't go in! It's too dangerous for you! I've been inside, and there is nothing in there! But, it's very dangerous!"

These are pebbles compared to what the Egyptians moved. It’s very frustrating that this magnificent feat of engineering is ignored, for the most part.

What does academia say "Barefoot people without shirts on drug stone up ramps and would wet the sand to help move it more easily".

So think about this. Okay first off that stone is gonna sink until that ramp becomes hard enough to support the weight. Secondly, wet ground is very hard to walk on. Imagine pulling anything over beach sand. How many cars each year get stuck on DRY beach sand? So wet sand wasn't happening. A sled creates less surface area but greatly increases the weight of the footprint, to that ramp would have to be incredibly impacted/hard to bear the weight. They're getting blistered by the sun and if they're pouring something it's to save their burning feet. They're not pouring water, it would be so continuous that the soil would turn to mud. And imagine how hard it would be to break apart that highly compacted ramp. Imagine pickaxing a white rock road and your tool ain't even made of steel.

They'd have to roll the stone up on logs. It would look like a railway. Check out that ship pull in the show called The Physical 100 and you'll get an idea of how stones were moved..and it took a LOT of bodies. Eddie Hall had people pull his army tank and it took about a hundred. Odd comparison, but interesting to see. You'll need room for a lot of people, and good luck with pulling a stone around a corner.

Meanwhile you have to do this every hour of the day during bad weather for 20 years because the speed it was build is unreal. And Khafre's pyramid is even steeper.

I've always considered the difficulty of moving the stones around on the ground. It never even occurred to me to consider how much more difficult lifting them to height would be.
I've heard many theories about how they got them between sites. Some even seem plausible. I've never heard even an inkling of a theory of how they would have lifted those stones.
Sure, they used rocks tied to sticks to quarry stone. Sure, they rolled em across logs in the sand with nothin' but an excess of elbow grease. Sure, there may have been a river full of crocodiles and the only known boats were half the size of a canoe, but the rocks ARE there. They did it somehow.
So, sure, after 500 miles of fairytale nonsense, you've got your big stone to the site. Now explain how with nothing but sticks and stones, vines and twigs, rope made of hope, silk and hair, plus slaves for days, you're gonna pick it up.

This PROVES that the ancients weren’t using modern vehicles to build the pyramids! Checkmate archaeologists

[skipmullen]

You know those aliens are in their ship laughing their asses off.

I came on here to voice my opinion on the Egyptian‘s and the pyramids, but after reading the comments, I am very satisfied to see people are up to speed

[stephenwilliams]

At one point in my life I worked in a quarry and some of these clips blow away anything ever witnessed!!!
And yes....how did they do it and not just the pyramids there are other structures also

[geraldhoskowicz]

I think if you want to know how? Coral Castle is part of the key to moving. He used sound and electromagnetism. He used a small black box on top of a tripod that disappeared after his death. He also moved all of Coral Castle from one location to another by himself. The man was a little over five foot tall and thin. Thanks Jimmy.

Jimmy, the music fits the images perfectly !
Good job !

[ETHRON]

The music was absolutely 💯 fitting 👍😉.

Hopefully no humans were harmed in the making of this video.

Check out the 2013 Doc. Levitated Mass.. That really puts it into perspective.. In 2013, to move ONE 340 Ton Granite Boulder 105 miles.. They had to build a custom designed, 294 foot long, 206 wheel trailer around the Granite Boulder.. Then lift it about 3 feet.. Then use Multiple 10 Wheel Diesel Semi Trucks pushing and pulling simultaneously to move the trailer, and the top speed was 7 mph.. From start to finish, it took months, and cost $10 Million, to move ONE 340 Ton Granite Boulder 105 miles over roads/streets, Not Sand, Grass or Rough Terrain.

I also love hearing that slaves, thousands of slaves, moved the individual boulders by either PUSHING THEM on ROLLERS (just like the tornado warmers at Circle K) on level ground AND uphill, or PULLING THEM with ROPES.
Show me a remnant of just ONE of those rollers, a piece of that miracle rope, or the mighty bones of those herculean slaves.

1812 Overture - I love that they used real Muskets and Canons for this piece.

I guess I’m not sure what people using undersized equipment to move heavy things has to do with the pyramids.
