You could get lost in there!!
How the hell did they build that!! So impressive!
🤣
And people think they didn't have the wheel yet.
awesome ❤
Once more great stuff!
Yet no one documented how the pyramids were constructed...
Wow, that looked amazing ❤ Good on you two for doing the trip.
So glad you actually watched it! Awesome!
@@less-travelled I will watch them all... I'm glad you posted the videos.. stay cool ✌️
Great video. Loved the history lesson.Thanks so much for sharing.
Cheers Geoff, so glad you're still watching after Jordan! Onto another series now!
Another excellent and informative video of your channel, again, thank you!!! I have a huge passion for Ancient Egypt. I also I enjoyed your Jordan, Petra, series... Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much! Amazing to have a follower from Sudan!! We considered visiting Sudan but the Egyptians suggested it might not be the best idea right now :( We met many nice Egyptians, however we try to show both the good and the bad of a country so we also wanted to show some of the hassling and issues. Thanks again (I think Petra was one of the best things we produced, it took us ages to edit haha!).
The bent pyramid is legendary, might be my fav pyramid. Both the red and bent are just by their lonesome
It's really cool isn't it! It's so distinctive compared to the others too.
I find it remarkable that they are like the stepped pyramids of central and south America.
This video is amazing, great stuff. Don’t know why you have more viewers. This site seems more impressive then Giza. I have been to Egypt but only to dive (for a reason) but this site seems to be definitely worth visiting next time i’ll be there. Thanks !!
Thank you sir 🙏🏻 I don’t know why we don’t get more too!!! 🤣😂 Yeah check it out next time you go it’s a lot less stressful and crowded than Giza. In the next episode, we visit the bent and red pyramid and there was nobody there - it was one of the best experiences too. Thanks again!
Great video!
Thank you! 🙏🏻
Great video mate
Thanks! 👍
I might be interested if all the history wasn't a lie we know the Sphinx was there before the flood I mean there's water run out at the Basin of the Sphinx and there hasn't been rain or any means of water run out since the flood and before
22:39 notice the two guys below the milker are shouting ... or so it appears ,but could be singing or even whistling
I never had a problem when I was in Cairo I had the the best time ever
❤❤❤❤❤❤
I really like this new travel site
Awesome……
Speaking about Cairo being safe, Dude it's safer than where u come from lol
Im from Scotland, Its a lot safer in Egypt than the UK and the people are a lot friendlier and welcoming than the UK. Ive lived and worked in Egypt since 2010 and will retire in Egypt.
are you sure it wasn't a spiritual awakening? The pyramids hold a lot of energy. My coach went and she was not allowed to film or talk about what she saw at points...if you really understand the spiritual world we live in you know
Fantastic and refreshing content 👍
Energy devices
Yup
Brilliant
earthquick destroyed the city that's we know little about it
I get it about the animals but don't forget that for them it's just a normal day. They are desert animals and are probably worse off being kept in British Safari Parks than giving rides to people in their natural environment. Enjoyed the video though!
so British - well those couple of pyramids are weapons...so no wonder u feel ill there. they ain't all good they're machines. see Dunne and Farrells deep dive on them, they are resonance machines...and there's two examples in ancient texts of them being linked up with all the other pyramids on the planet. used to blow up the fifth planet the asteroid belt coz it was crossing the path of mars and ripping its atmosphere off. obviously repurposed later as others things...but there's a reason the bent pyramid and the red are analogues. the air shafts are wave guides. its built on floating stones so it could resonate its a piezoelectric machine. Whats interesting is, the fifth planet was fighting back...and....there's a giant scar on mars that follows what an electricity weapon would do....and the grand canyon is also a waterway which is shaped the same as what an electricity bolt would gouge out - meaning - grand canyon could have been an ancient Egypt also and would explain the mummies found there and might have been where the fifth planet blasted us back. if all this sounds bizarre - its not - read farrels pyramid book the giza death star revisited and you will have the missing blanks filled in. blew my mind the factoids which support this ancient text mythology. the tale of ishram nigra and something else. one story is from the perspective of hunter gatherers here talking about the gods - the other ancient scroll is from the perspective of the martians talking about it. so interesting...
I'm happy to see a realistic video I will cross this off my list
I would 100% have a full scale, claustrophobic panic attack....and that's just on the bus ride there.
Giants?
Aliens 👽
great vid mate. nearly had a panic attack just watching that. i wouldve turned around half way i reckon. 33 not that hot though !
Food poisoning, rabies, hepatitis B & S, scammers, beggars, touts, pickpockets, perverts, harassers, filthy environment and badly maintained infrastructure and streets, hot, poverty, injustice, dictatorial system, overpopulation, pollution, ignorance, unemployment all over, uneducated, uncivilized, backwardness, hunger, no healthcare, harassment, female violence and sexual harassment, delusional and ppl still lives in Stone Age. Yep, Egypt must be definitely tourists number one hotspot
Man, I just gotta say- those of us who would be attracted to this video due to our wonder and love of the pyramids....should not watch this video. You could claim that it is a reality check, but the fact is, this finished video is 80% negative, 10% neutral, and 10% positive. Not fun to watch people essentially complain for 80% of a 22 minute video while living out a bucket list item that so many millions could only dream of being fortunate enough to do one day.
The aim of our content is to present the both the positive AND negative aspects of a place to give people a real feel for it. If we don’t do this and instead over glamourise things or just focus on the positive then what’s the point of the content? it’s no longer real, it just becomes a fiction. We too were attracted by the wonder and excitement of the pyramids (hence why we visited!) but several factors frankly ruined it. In the next episode, we visit the nearby ‘Saqqara pyramids’ and we had much better experience as you’ll see :) I hope that makes sense.
Found you both on Instagram and I am glad I've spent my day off watching your videos! Please keep the content going, it's fantastic, real and raw. Reminds me of Bourdain
Thanks, so glad you enjoy it! Yes we’ll keep going - off to Asia soon 😊 Real and raw is exactly the idea, if we glamourise or only show the positive then the content just becomes a fiction. (Being compared to Bourdain is an honour, but one we’re not worthy of lol)
Oh Amy you've have dreamt about this moment since you were a child.... and then... panic attack! When the dream turns out to be a nightmare. You were shaking. Umbrellas guys! The most portable awning there is ;-)
Yeah it wasn’t quite the experience we were expecting! 😅 Note to self: always have an umbrella handy! 🤣 thanks for watching! 😁
Grab a 50+ UV umbrella. Been awesome for tropical summer walking. The Victorians got it right just not the UV bit @@less-travelled
Aww Amy, just felt so bad for you! I nearly had a panic attack watching, looks hectic, and sorry you guys were sick too! I think I would get so claustro in there 🥴 Great video and looking forward to seeing your visit to Saqqara! (Also Grant you need to bring back the 'onwards' haha!) ✌🏻
Thanks Kiki! It was definitely an intense experience - I didn't expect to react that way but yeah the food poising also didn’t help 😅. We have the pyramids at Saqqara and Dahshur coming up and luckily we pretty much had the place to ourselves, so no more panic attacks 😝. Haha we somehow forgot about 'Onwards,' I'll get Grant to bring it back.
Great video. I went in November and was surprised how crowded it was inside, especially with the cost to go inside.
Yeah we were too, we just can’t believe they didn’t warn anyone 😂 thanks for watching!
We were there last October and experienced the same suffocating journey inside the pyramid. Amazing to see but so tiring!
Yeah that’s how we felt. Honestly they really need to have a total capacity limit (and a sunshade outside 😅), but incredible experience nonetheless! We went to the red and bent pyramids and it was a much better experience, did you guys do that too?
A sunshade out side 🤣 fuck me. Maybe an indoor swimming pool in the pyramid as well that’d be neat with some air conditioning
America does this too. Theyve done that for decades here
Ha no way!
They wet the ground to stop dust rising. I'm actually in Cairo atm. I hope you both enjoyed Egypt.
Wow it’s madness there! So busy & noisy. Nice buildings though.
Man I can’t believe how cheap that meal nice. Sounded & looked yummy!
Why are you comparing? These artefacts have survived millennia. Just show them, not your face complaining about what you want… get off of here you numbnut.
I guess its a stolen car from germany😅😜
lol I doubt it but I guess it's possible 🤣
Interesting video. Very authentic and genuine. A little tip; invest in a microphone that can better capture your voice an reduce noise from the sorroundings.
Thanks - glad you enjoyed it! Yes we have a new camera AND audio for the next country. Jordan and Egypt were really just experimental series just to see if we could make anything good. Thanks again
Those gods here is Arabic, not Greek or Egyptian. Al-Lat, Al-Uzza, Manat, and Hubal... are all Arab pagan gods. 8:49
The gods I have shown on the facade are accurate: they are Egyptian and Greek gods and goddesses, however the eagles may represent the god Dushara - a Nabatean deity. Al-Uzza and other Arabic gods were important to the Nabateans but there is no obvious or easily identifiable carvings of them, their presences is more subtle. For example, they may have been represented through symbols (it wasn't Nabatean culture to sculpt clear depictions of their own gods, they didn't really do this anywhere). The reason these Greek/Egyptian gods appear is that the Nabateans blended their own gods with those from other cultures (they may have even associated some of their own gods with similar deities of Greece etc). They also traded extensively with the Greeks / Romans so it may have also been a way for them to show they are open to trade.
Hope you enjoyed your trip just wanted to mentioned that Cairo is an ancient place and is not considered developed that’s why you will see old buildings and overpopulated areas and old streets but there are a wide variety of places you can visit like sharm elsheikh or Al Alamein or even Alexandria
Yes but it was difficult to do it all or know where to go! I have already done A LOT more planning for the next country. Until we got back home from Egypt we had never seen a single one of our videos, so we had no idea how good they were - this was the most planning and research I was willing to do without knowing if I was wasting my time 🤣 Does that make sense? Thanks for watching!
