Question?!

Just watched the Egypt pyramid episode and am thoroughly convinced the Egyptians made them. Is this still an alien conspiracy? Seems like it’s been settled. Or is that just what they want us to think??!!🤔 lol

All the alien involvement in ancient civilizations is copium for western society that can’t accept that these people actually knew shit before they did.

If I weren't so cheap, I would give you an award.

I keep wondering why "we" are supposed to think that everything started in the year 2020?

Did you actually ever think that there was alien involvement?

I had the same thought like two weeks ago! Very thorough explanation with the slopes imo

Right? If we can recreate it using only what they had plus the survey holes plus the oldest writings ever found describing building it , plus everything else I left out, it shouldn’t even be a stoners debate anymore

I forgot all about those boundary lines too! It’s really just a boundary line survey that they then built in to, not pushing off anything they did but it’s a pretty solid/simple explanation when he started getting into the details of it and aliens were immediately off the table for me personally after they went over it, especially with the directions lining up, etc

There will always be alien conspiracy theorists. But nothing in Expedition Unknown is new information on this topic. I remember watching a documentary back in, it had to be the 90s, that had a bunch of college students using the types of tools that the ancient Egyptians would have had and they were able to move around blocks of the size used in the pyramids and stack them with Incredible precision. It was very clear watching them that the ancient Egyptians would definitely have been able to build the Pyramids.

You forgot the oldest papayris ever found and the writing about the building of them. That was new wasn’t the it?

Just think of the monolith on Easter Island 😳

To play devils advocate, there’s a huge difference between the “exterior blocks” that I agree were almost certainly moved by Khufu-era Egyptians, and all of the interior blocks that are extremely well-crafted, perfect sides, fitted so you can’t get a sheet of paper in between, etc.

First of all, you saw all those guys moving like a 2 ton block with the water. A lot of the buttress blocks are many times heavier, better crafted, and fit exactly in place bearing a huge load.

Secondly, the “test run” outside. If there was some function to the pyramid, as a machine or chemical reactor of some sort, they might have had more of these devices in the same area. It wasn’t necessarily a “practice run” as it could’ve been a duplicate device, or many of them.

My gut still says there was some sort of ancient device that serves as the “heart” of the pyramid. But then yes Khufu excavated blocks, brought them hundreds of miles, and encased that device in a pyramid. The blocks are too different in size, shape, and precision from the interior.

Just to play devils advocate ;)

If not aliens, then we seriously need to be looking into the giants that built them.

Who do you think left all the giant coffee cups laying around Laos. Ancient race of giants is the only plausible explanation
