This is so fun. Wirtual went from "and then hefest got this run" to "my favorite theory: the internal ramp" and I am just happy that he is so curious about the world he lives in.
Imagine building a time machine and going back 5000 years and ask them how they built them and they reply with "no idea, they've been here for 5000 years".
The question i have is why didnt they document any of this stuff - like, surely we should've found build plans or whatever unless they got lost in war or time
@@professorpwerrelthey most likely did, but those methods of documentation are susceptible to loss over time. furthermore, it's a lot easier for a method to get lost to time when you've only done it once. by that I mean since we wash the dishes so often, how to make soap is relatively common knowledge, but since we only built the pyramids once (for an unknown purpose), that information isn't spread as widely and thus is more susceptible to being lost.
@@seanpe8474 +1 good point. Was hoping to spark a response like this with my quite general message. It's what makes it such a fascinating mystery I suppose. It is the shame that Egypt and the tourism board are so opposed to deep exploration and uncovering the true secrets
If you had a time machine to go one way to anywhere and back again where would you go? I would for sure go to the past to some significant event like the pyramids, or sometime around 30AD to find Jesus or something. That's the issue here with this weird pyramid shaped Trackmania track, no one actually knows, or may never ever know how it was truly built and to find out the truth, not some hypothesised theoretical assumption, but the real truth would be kind of cool.
This type of video is by far my favorite. It's a content creator I enjoy, teaching me something new thats interesting. Please don't stop here, even if you have to make a separete channel for it.
Like he is so enthusiastic about Pyramids and the internal ramp theory that I am somehow really invested in this. I probably won't look at any of this by myself but watching him talk about this and be so happy is great
I know, right?? Like I'm really opposed to this dude that wants to hinder the good scientists just for personal reasons and just this whole story arc is so fascinating
I think most people genuinely enjoy listening to you talk about your passions. So many of us followed you despite never playing trackmania, so it makes sense that we just enjoy what you have to say.
I had a friend who did a project with muon scanning. For anyone wanting a better explanation of how it works here it is: Muons are subatomic charged particles that are formed in the upper atmosphere by high energy cosmic rays. They then fall through the atmosphere at speeds close to the speed of light and can travel through solid objects but will eventually collide and be blocked if the solid is thick enough. we can detect them with effectively a slab of plastic with special electric propertias and so can count how many are detected hitting the slab. In the pyramids because of all the rock, we can use the muon detection count rate to estimate how much stuff is between the detector and the sky. And by repositioning the detector we can even make a 3D map of any significant voids that would change the number of muons detected.
Ever since I watched the pyramid RPG map VOD I've been lowkey interested in the topic. No idea why editors are repressing pyramid talk, it's awesome to hear wirtual talk about a tppic that excites him so much.
If the great void turns out to be a ramp just like the corridor beneath and if the newly discovered ramp ALSO has a stone with the shape that the committee mistook for a worn down step then it undeniably confirms the internal ramp theory and that the ramps were used as leverage. Because that stone hasn't been stepped on since the chamber was buried. Exciting!
I absolutely love hearing wirtual speak so passionately about pyramids. It’s so wholesome, like a toddler excited to show his parents the cool rock he found
This is what you've been working for. Slowly warming your audience up to the idea of you having a big interest in the pyramids, and then suddenly you unlock the ability to post a pyramid video without disturbing your audience too much. Big brain content creator.
Honestly super interesting, would genuinely love to see some Wirtual documentary style content covering things like this (actual theories, or just facts about interesting history)
I'm so happy that you made a video sharing what is clearly a huge passion for you. It's super interesting to learn about a subject I know very little of from someone so enthusiastic who can explain it in simple terms to a chatter like me. I hope this comes across as sincerely as it is meant - thank you, Wirtual
I thought this was going to be a video about doing custom scenery on a TM map, but I ended up being taught a history lesson. I don't even play TM, so this just goes to show that I could watch this particular human being talk about anything and I'd be entertained.
This level of enthusiasm coups make any subject interesting. If Wirtual wants to make a second channel for content like this I would totally subscribe to it.
I would watch 10 more videos of Wirtual talking about pyramids. Seeing him so passionate about his hobby, his interest, his curiosity, it's just contagious.
Dude this is no joke some of my favourite content I've seen on your channel and I've put in over 200 hours on TM because of you. Don't worry man, We love it.
What got my attention is the whole thing about the Egyptians needing to deny it, otherwise they failed in their mission of keeping it in their normal condition and shape.
There is something so fascinating about hearing someone speak with passion about something, even it is not something i am equally passionate about. It gets me interested as well. I always thought we knew how they built the pyramids and I just didnt care enough to learn.
Incredibly interesting to see you talk about the pyramids. Good to see someone who is passionate about their interests. Please keep the pyramid talk in the vids from now on editors :P
It took me until 11:21 to figure out i was just learning about pyramids rather than Wirtual actually having a pyramid map to run for this video lmao. I aint mad, I love this content; I was just so entranced that I didnt notice
History of Granite is such a good channel. I personally find the most plausible explanation to be hybrid ramp that pierced the pyramid during construction, using grand gallery for lower structures and ending in a supportive structure on the opposite side of the pyramid during the construction phase. Spiral ramps seem like a inefficient solution, and any rigging for counter weights just seem more logical to place outside the pyramid. To construct the top structures, I don’t think ramp of any kind is justified, as these structures bear much less weight, are constructed of smaller stones and as history for granite pointed out, could be constructed layer by layer where the lower layer forms “steps” the next rock is raised upon, using levers or a set of levers (rocking the stone to place bigger and bigger levers) to scale up the steps. So I don’t expect a number of ramps to be discovered, but only few, all piercing the pyramid completely.
When i first started watching Wirtual i began loving trackmania, and ive grown so fond that everytime im at work and im towing a cart i direct it like its a ice slide in TM2020. And now that ive watched this video wirtual has made me considerably more interest in pyramids XD.
Honestly I enjoyed this type of content. Would love to see more like this if possible in the future. After all this channel is just stream highlights, doesn't have to be just tm 😊
I follow these guys for years now. The best part is to see the guy from Ancient Architectes slowly changing his views from a crazy conspiracy theorists (aliens and stuff) to a dude with real interesting theories
Already watched this on a vod i assume, but downloading the video so it counts as a YT red view in support of more pyramid content. Wirts enthusiasm is contagious.
I actually think it was built like a 3D printer would build it, and as it got taller, they kept a Goyon spiral, then when that was all done, it would've been easy to just fill the Goyon spiral from top to bottom, filling the slope with steps. The ramp was probably supported by stones already, making it easy to just brush away the sand they probably used for the slop, and then when the stones below the sand was exposed,you could just keep put stone blocks where the sand ramp was and still utilize the convenience of the ramp to get things up there, which is why most of the pyramids are solid inside. another theory I have is that they built everything sort of like a 3D printer would, but building from the outside-in layer by layer and using pulleys and/or leverage to bring material up the side in a staggered position with like "wooden cranes" where 1 crane would take it a few steps up with a bundle of material that was then shoved over to another "crane" and so on, maybe a combo of these? Again, these are JUST THEORIES.
Imagine permanently altering an ancient wonder because you thought that it was a good idea to "restore" something without actually knowing what it was, not like there are less invasive measure that you could use to go up a small incline.
If you take a look at the blocks of the pyramids and other stone structures, you will see a 'nub' on the lower end. It is theorized this 'nub' was used in some capacity to move and lift the blocks. It is not a accidental 'nub' as the approximate same shape and location can be found on blocks everywhere throughout Egypt. Now one thing is to split a block in two, another is to create this 'nub'. One would have to whittle down the entire side of it and leave the 'nub'. This drastically increases the amount of work required per block, which makes the millions of blocks created in 20 years even more impressive and "impossible". And the most interesting thing about the 'nubs: You can also find these, in the exact same way in other stone works miles and miles and miles away even on other continents. People in ancient times seems to have used the exact same quarry method, exact same masonry, with the exact same 'nub' on the bottom and probably the exact same transportation method because of that. And all of the nubs only appear in the most ancient, lower levels of the stone works. Nowhere to be seen for the following generations. So, what is the link between all these sites and cultures?
There's probably a large number of people who watch Wirtual for Wirtual, not for trackmania gameplay. It probably helped, but we love hearing Wirtual tell us stories and talk about the things he's interested in!
It is possible at the end of building, they filled in the internal ramp from the top down. This would have been necessary to maintain the cooling aspect of the pyramid.
Came for Trackmania content, stayed for the pyramids... Sometimes life works like that.
I can't believe I'm here for this. But yeah. Watched the whole thing and now I'm hooked
Life is simple sometimes 😅 !
Same
so true, sometimes is that simple
How amazing would it be if Wirtual built a pyramid map, in which you race down an internal ramp? Would be an incredible COTD map
Petition for Wirtual to start a podcast ranting about pyramids
id gladly make that
PLEASE
He could call it "Talking Points"
He already has one. We just watched it lol
@@tonicblue Or Virtual Pyramid
I know it's a meme with the editors hating the pyramid talk and all, but I actually love when he talks so passionately about the pyramids
I think we all do
SAME
@Esl Hypr! *i think we almost all do. Better?
@Esl Hypr! 😞😣😖😩😫
@Esl Hypr! maybe it wouldn't be so bad if you weren't on the internet. get off the internet.
You know its a good day when wirtual drops a pyramid themed video
Actually, it's just an edit of his old vod...
You know it's a good day when Wirtual
@@rileywebb4178 Yeah they are just reusing the same material found in another video.. Super fucking lazy
PYRAMIDS
Yes!
"You can't point a thermal camera at it."
"Show me evidence, there is no evidence!"
It is crazy how he basically says "Show me the evidence or you're crazy! No you're not allowed to go test for evidence!"
The reason we love Wirtual is the enthusiasm he talks about the thing he love.I want more pyramids.
This is so fun. Wirtual went from "and then hefest got this run" to "my favorite theory: the internal ramp" and I am just happy that he is so curious about the world he lives in.

We all know, if Wirtual had his hands on a time machine, exactly when he would travel to.
So, would I! It'd be "JC & Wirtuals Excellent Adventure" 🤣
If you had a time machine to go one way to anywhere and back again where would you go? I would for sure go to the past to some significant event like the pyramids, or sometime around 30AD to find Jesus or something.

Wirtual gets to the past and doesn't see any pyramids. He realizes it was him all along and procedes to build them.
He'd go there, possibly Stonehenge, and Easter Island
This type of video is by far my favorite. It's a content creator I enjoy, teaching me something new thats interesting. Please don't stop here, even if you have to make a separete channel for it.
i could listen to wirtual talk about pyramids for hours....

As an egyptian, I see this as an absolute win.
Do you believe in the internal ramp theory?

I can't wait for Part 2! Screw the editors, post more pyramid content!
I'm so happy that you made a video sharing what is clearly a huge passion for you. It's super interesting to learn about a subject I know very little of from someone so enthusiastic who can explain it in simple terms to a chatter like me. I hope this comes across as sincerely as it is meant - thank you, Wirtual
I have a sixth sense for when wirt posts
Same wtfff.
Just in time to sleep too
Bruhh me aswell
I just woke up and see in the notifcation that there's a new video
Oh my… a Pyramide themed Wirtual Video on a Sunday. Im about to build a tent in my Pants.
you mean build a pyramid?
I thought this was going to be a video about doing custom scenery on a TM map, but I ended up being taught a history lesson. I don't even play TM, so this just goes to show that I could watch this particular human being talk about anything and I'd be entertained.
The best days for wirtual is Kacky and when something new is discovered about the pyramids
This level of enthusiasm coups make any subject interesting. If Wirtual wants to make a second channel for content like this I would totally subscribe to it.
the main channel, the second channel, the clips channel and the pyramid channel
I dont get why all your editors dont like learning about this stuff. Its so cool! More pyramid content please
For real its so cool when people talk about something they are passionate about. Its so interesting to listen
I would watch 10 more videos of Wirtual talking about pyramids. Seeing him so passionate about his hobby, his interest, his curiosity, it's just contagious.
It’s a good day when Wirt gives us a pyramid update
Dude this is no joke some of my favourite content I've seen on your channel and I've put in over 200 hours on TM because of you. Don't worry man, We love it.
I just love how excited he is about this topic. I could listen to almost anything if it was described with this much passion.
I’m currently lying in bed sick, but seeing a video from Wirtual talking about pyramids makes me a little better
-How do you know so much about the pyramids?
-So there's this game about driving toy cars...
I have been watching pyramid videos ever since you mentioned them, this is the best thing ever.
I really thought this would be a second monitor type video with some pyramid trackmania map but this was an absolute primary monitor video
This is great. I need a series of this type of content.
We did ask for it indeed, thank you editors for acquiescing to our desires.
What got my attention is the whole thing about the Egyptians needing to deny it, otherwise they failed in their mission of keeping it in their normal condition and shape.
Thanks for the Trackmania content all of us were waiting for.
Internal ramp theory is not what I thought I needed in my life but it changed me completely
This is awesome, I really enjoy the passion you are talking with :D
Wirtual taught me to love trackmania, and now I'm being indoctrinated into loving pyramids too. This content is fantastic
There is something so fascinating about hearing someone speak with passion about something, even it is not something i am equally passionate about. It gets me interested as well.
I always thought we knew how they built the pyramids and I just didnt care enough to learn.
i hope bass loves editing pyramid videos cuz they are fun to watch
Love this type of video, cause I like this ancient history videos, specially about pyramids!
This is actually cool can't lie. And its cool that Wirtual is so interested in this and talk about this on stream idk seems fun
you talking about pyramids while watching this is better than any other video! The editors should let you talk about pyramids more often!!
I believe the editors slowly realise what content YT wants to see.
This was both entertaining, interesting, but also funny to see how excited he was.
there's a video called "proposed pyramid construction techniques" that's pretty compelling
I think on top of trackmania you should put out videos revovling around your passion, we love you for your personality wirtual
we totally need more of this
In the future Wirtual will be known as the Pyramid Conspiracist who started as a Trackmania Streamer...
I love it!
Then the pyramid got this run.
This is exactly the content that I am here for
I'm happy to see the main channel recieving the same love and high level content as that other sometimes used channel.
I'm so excited for pyramid ramblings!
i got a 3 hour long ad for this video. well worth the wait
This is my new favorite Trackmania themed pyramid channel.
I would legit listen to a full hour of wirtual talking about stones and desert triangles, and I'm not even joking.
We need more of these, so interesting and entertaining
I would love to see Wirtual build a pyramid map for COTD that is racing down an internal ramp!
This shouldn’t be so entertaining, why is this SO entertaining!
bruh i love when wirt just goes on about the pyramids, so fascinating
Incredibly interesting to see you talk about the pyramids. Good to see someone who is passionate about their interests. Please keep the pyramid talk in the vids from now on editors :P
Been watching all of these channels for years, never expected you to be doing the same!!!
Finally a pyramid video on the pyramid channel.
Now the youtube frogs can also experience the glory of Wirtual talking about the pyramids.
This is awesome! Don't let the internet (or editors) pyramid shame you Wirtual!
This is a great day, we need more pyramid content.
