THE TRUTH BEHIND THE PIRAMIDS

No matter how many times you lay eyes on the Great Pyramid, it never fails to amaze. The sheer size, symmetry and the fact that it has stood here for four and a half thousand years is mind-blowing. Take a moment to absorb it all, especially when you step into the tomb of Pharaoh Cheops, also known as Khufu.

It's truly baffling. You look at it and can't help but wonder, what is it? Talk to me, do something! It's just so strange. British archaeologist John Romo saw the Great Pyramid for the first time 40 years ago, and ever since, like many others, he has been trying to unravel the mystery of its construction. There's an old Arab saying that goes, "Man fears time, but time tears the pyramids." These ancient structures have been standing here for ages, and they continue to impress. Imagine how they must have looked in ancient times, gleaming white in the desert. Visitors to this land must have been in awe, asking the same question we ask today: How did they do it? The Great Pyramid, in particular, is a masterpiece. It's not just a random pile of rocks stacked together. The precision and accuracy of this pyramid, built long before the recognition of mathematics, is astounding.

Its angles and joints are so precise that it remains one of the most confounding structures in the world. You just need to know where to look. Every angle has to be perfect, as even the slightest deviation would throw off the entire structure. What's even more mind-boggling is that this complex building was designed using simple tools like the naked eye and a piece of string. They even used a plumb bob, a string with a weight on the end, to align it with the stars and create one of the most accurate buildings of all time. Even after 45 centuries, it still surpasses the precision of many modern skyscrapers. Clearly, the precision was no accident, but it's still a mystery how the ancient builders achieved such perfection without modern technology.

it doesn't matter how many times you see

the Great Pyramid it's always astounding

its size its symmetry and most

impressively that it's been here for

four and a half thousand years so take a

moment and take it in the tomb of the

Pharaoh Cheops or Khufu as he's known

here

it's completely boggling you look at it

anything what is it

talk to me do something it's sort of

really weird British archaeologist John

Romo first saw the Great Pyramid 40

years ago

ever since like so many others he's been

trying to figure out how it was built

you know there's an old Arab saying man

fears time of time tears the pyramids

oldest thing in the world just stands

there.

they're impressive today but imagine the

pyramids in ancient times completely

white shimmering in the desert visitors

to this land must have just looked and

wondered and they probably asked the

same question we asked today how did

they do it in this land of pyramids the

How did they do it.

Great Pyramid is pure perfection it's

not just a huge pile of rocks neatly

placed on top of each other precision of

this pyramid but looking at it looks

rather precise made well before

mathematics was recognized 2,000 years

before Pythagoras came up with his

triangle theorem it's perfect angles and

joins make this the most precise and

most confounding building in the world
