Just last week watched a video starting out in 1900 with a famous Egyptologist finding a pit all his colleagues dismissed, but 40 minutes later led to this & a guy who made a working model for water only to accidentally discover it was a Pulse Generator. Fascinating.
@@conzmoleman You sound like the reason Skeptic & Sceptic are so close together. If you told people more than 200 years ago we'd have Magic Lamps in the Ceiling that ignited at the flip of a switch you'd be committed! But infected with Modernity You can't imagine the reality of anything beyond your own understanding.
The thing that intrigues me the most is the fact that there’s a sulfur smell from the queens chamber. What else would explain the smell other than a chemical reaction with compounds containing sulfur. There’s so many discrepancies and odd things about the pyramids that the only why to explain it is to think outside the box. I get that the Pharos were the Egyptians gods to them and that that would be a motivator to build the pyramids but the level of accuracy and the many mathematical coincidences makes me think otherwise. Now the fact there isn’t any evidence that there were transducers and other advanced technology’s left behind is odd and makes it hard to believe but the fact still remains that all the tunnels and chambers definitely had a purpose.
Im not taking away from your content, this is a great video. Theres a lot of videos "debunking" these alternative theories. But theres never any real rebuttals or convincing arguments otherwise. I don't believe they were powerplants but i do believe the dynastic Egyptians found the great pyramids left over from a much older lost civilization. Then spent thousands of years building a successful civilization contributing their own awesome structures in the area. The matching ruins of the previous civilization exists at many places across the world and our ancestors just added to these pre-existing sites
Dunn's theory strikes me as similar to proposing a traffic bridge was specifically built to generate sound because it vibrates when cars travel over it.
I saw a video with a dude that made a scale model that generated power but I can't freaking find it again. Had I known it would be so hard I'd have saved it.
Hey im responding kind of late but look up thunderstorm generator or martin fleichmann. Apparently its a replica of this technology and it does seem to work. I believe the schematics to build it are also publicly available
Yeah cause using a make shift hammer and a little chisel makes sense. Do your research dude. Just the geometry alone tells you what there telling us isn’t true.
I have massive respect for Mr. Dunn for speaking out the engineer's perspective against the ridiculous bronze age tomb hypothesis we've been told and all the incredible analysis he has provided for the vase, the drill core and the sarcophagi, but i'm not going to buy some random alternative idea either just because I like the guy who proposes it. demnostrate on how this type of structure produces power and demonstrate why 99% of the structure has to be highly geometrically placed stone. where the energy was stored and what was it used for. until then i'm fine admitting that I don't have a clue what the pyramids are, who built them and when.
Nikla tesla, created the wardenclyffe tower, he was supplied with classified files that were based off the schematics of the pyramids, look into each blue prints and purpose off his tower to the pyramid and try to connect the dots
The easiest way to ex-lain phase cancellation is to think of it in terms of electronic signal a positive charge will cancel out a negative. Simply put 1 plus -1 = 0 Hope that helps great video
I think Dunn's theory is interesting and worthy of debate, these structures are full of unexplained anomalies and unanswered questions. These structures really do not match hand guided tools. Im just saying, I can fell a tree with an axe, but this proves nothing about how my house was built.
@@CoffeeFiend1 if you do a quick google search about baroque and neoclassical architecture, you will see stone work much better then that of the Great Pyramid. It should take you roughly 20 seconds. In the 10 seconds left, you can google close up photos of the Giza pyramids, so you can see the rough finish of the outer blocks and the tons of plaster and rubble used to fill in the gaps between the stones. So where exactly is the need for lost high tech?
Regarding your skepticism about splitting rock with wood, I first learned of it perhaps 30 years ago, so believe it’s well known in the historical record. I can’t find a non-paywall paper, but there’s one by Roger Rowell of the University of Wisconsin, Madison that actually references Egypt. Rowell, Roger. (2012). 4 Moisture Properties. Handbook of Wood Chemistry and Wood Composites. 10.1201/b12487-7.
53:41 An interesting point about raising the gabling above the grand gallery. But Hancock can only talk about tuning these granite blocks because of their very odd shapes and the lines and ‘bowl’ features in their upper surfaces. If they were more uniform and hadn’t had the bowl depressions made in them (taking lots of effort) then his theory would hold even less water. But the same should be true the other way. If this is a stack of granite for the purpose of spreading the load from higher in the pyramid that no one was supposed to ever see again after construction, why did they bother with the bowls and lines? They would have to be extremely bored to choose to carve the bowls for fun!
1:07:47 To be fair to Hancock on these. I believe he predicted that similar would be found at the end of the Northern shaft and those show even more signs of being electrodes for hydrolysis rather than having a ceremonial function.
Electrodes deteriorate during electrolysis. The idea for building such a monster pyramid for such tiny electrodes that might last a year having spent god knows how long building it and moving 2.5 million tons of stone is so ludicrous I can see why nobody wants to listen to such stupid theories
@@KowBoySpace One electrode deteriorates, the other electrode gets plated. If you look at the pictures of the northern and southern gantenbrinks doors, that is one interpretation of what you can see. There is definite tapering of one and the other is a different colour and looks fatter. I’d say compare this with the hook found at the bottom of one of those shafts. That’s oxidised to copper green, but it’s still in very good shape. Further, across the northern and southern doors there are four copper handles. Only one of which is crudely sitting in a groove in the thin stone. When Ancient architects hi-res pics first showed this, it was I who alerted Hancock to it. A half remembered chemistry lesson, bolstered by a quick google, showed that ‘recessed cathodes’ are a thing in electrolysis as it makes it last longer before you have to replace it. So to my mind there are several pieces of evidence that point towards electrolysis. I agree that it sounds crazy, but the whole thing is crazy. Keeping two 20x20cm shafts climbing 60 odd metres into the masonry only to end in these blocks with little copper handles that no one is ever going to see! All the explanations have issues: electrolysis is far out and requires undiscovered new rooms. I think they look pretty terrible as ceremonial end points. Particularly with the aforementioned crude groove and graffiti behind. If they are handles they are weirdly high on the door and also the pins do stick out the back. Lastly, the theory put forward by History for Granite about them being covers for the shafts, again it’s 20x20cm you don’t need copper handles, particularly two copper handles mounted high with tiny loops! One horizontal handle would be far better. Or simply just a slab would do the trick to prevent debris entering the shaft during construction. So the other theories aren’t without issues. And this is just one of many pyramid oddities which are open to interpretation.
It’s like, who figured out “how” to build these things?? But wait? They built these based off of plans for a Power Plant?? How did they figure out what a power plant is, and how to build it? Then start building it(perfectly), and there’s just, so much missing here. I believe it all, but it’s truly un believable.
How on earth could a stone pyramid generate power and what would anyone do with electricity in 3500BC? There's a video out there saying pyramids broadcast radio waves in the 200-400 metre range. So maybe the Pharaohs used the Great Pyramid to tune into Radio Luxembourg on 208 metres! The one million watt signal broadcast all over Europe so surely a well-built pyramid would pick it up!
Whilst being another great post by Lines In Sand, I watched this particular one for the entertainment value. Dunn and Hancock have both been very successful in what they do, but their ideas and suggestions are a bit.... silly. For lack of a better word, lol.
Couldn't agree more. And all this to find a power source to explain power tools that never existed. The drill holes don't actually show 0.1 inch/ rotation speed at any point. Professionally debunked by Scientists against Myths here on yt if anyone is interested.
Well I wonder if it was a power plant did someone sabotage and caused to explode? Heard the inner chamber shows signs of being moved about an inch inside. Just thoughts that come to mind.
1:07:47 Hi Sean, (correct me if I’ve chosen the wrong spelling). I too keep an open mind about the various pyramid theories and something that sticks in my mind is what Christopher Dunne says about if you are explaining the great pyramid then your theory has to explain all its parts. And for me the “pins” at the ends of the Queens Chamber shafts are the most compelling evidence for Christopher Dunnes theory of a functional rather than ceremonial pyramid. Which you glossed over a bit here. Because the picture evidence reveals that these pins are not handles, or the backs of handles placed there in some ceremony. If that were the case we would expect symmetry, but that is not what we have. Instead both the Northern and Southern shafts pins on the Gantenbrink doors show signs of electrolysis having taken place. One pin is fatter in a misshapen kind of way and looks a different colour even, perhaps shinier, the other tapers away. This is consistent with electroplating of one and the eating away of the other. Hence the diagnosis of electrolysis. This was exciting evidence in and of itself. But then Matt Sibson of Ancient Architects published the high res photos from the exploration of the Northern Queens chamber shaft. And this showed something extraordinary, one of the pins was poking out away from the “door” but the other sat much closer in a (crudely) chiselled groove in the “door” itself. I looked up recessing the anode or cathode in electrolysis and discovered, to my astonishment, that it is a known technique which prolongs how long the anode/cathode lasts. So we have two pieces of evidence that point to electrolysis, the playing/eating away and the recessing. But there is also a third point of interest: it looks very ugly! The only metal, buried in the middle of thousands of tons of stone during construction in what must have been a ceremonial capacity if they aren’t functional, yet they look like that? The burial only, mainstream you might say, have to account for how these pins look, now that we know they aren’t perfect little handles.
@@tyrannosaurusimperator Compare how these look with the hook found in one of the shafts. That’s in much better condition. But I agree some sort of natural explanation might be found on the electrolysis hypothesis. However the recess/groove that one sits in also needs explanation.
Evidence of ancient batteries have been found, as well, which could have powered such tools to build the pyramids. The pyramids may not have been the original or main source of electric energy (if that is, indeed, what they were built for.) Referencing 41:35 in the video
Dunn provides a lot of useful fodder for debate. He is right in that you need people from many different disciplines to look at a complex problem I just don't see the power plant theory as being correct without much more evidence
It's funny how u chuckle about the age of the book, a mere 26 years old, and it coming from an ers we don't see anymore, when discussing thousands of years old pyramid, shows how quickly time changes perceptions.
It's funny Dunn dismisses levitation for the construction of the pyramid, considering he claimed on camera that the Coral Castle was built using levitation.
That’s an interesting point that I didn’t connect with the wider context. There’s a section of the book dedicated to Coral Castle which I omitted. I think the implication is that some sort of mechanical / electrical energy may have assisted the man at Coral Castle in building his house. Either way, I don’t think much of the whole thing at all, and it seemed irrelevant to the theory at hand. Maybe I’m misunderstanding. Either way, that’s a good spot. Nice one!
@@linesinsand3928 There is a documentary (it can be found on yt) about the Coral Castle, where Dunn says the builder was able to reverse the gravitational/magnetic (I don't remember exactly) poles of the block's of stone, using electricity and make them levitate. My point is that levitation it's not too fringe of an idea for Dunn. And since he claims the Egyptians had electricity, I don't think it's something he would not claim. But the second point is that he would say anything for money, then back it up with "look at my engineering degree". Which is both sad and dishonest.
I just finished the book. I agree with many theories Dunn has written there but to be honest I think such massive project would not be undertaken to use energy for a civilization on earth. It is no coincidence that the pyramids are in line with Orion. Maybe other civilizations used earth as a giant power plant to fuel their spaceships or to send energy all the way to their far out galaxies.
It would be one thing if it was just one or two ridiculous notions.. Nope.. The whole entirety of everything Dunn says just screams bullshit. It sure does sell a lot of books but I can't see how anybody seriously can entertain this... This is just ridiculous
EXCELLENT Chanel ! Long time Sub :) You are 100% correct in your assessment. 100% Dunn is trying, he means well.. but none of us here today have even the slightest idea of why and how the structures were designed and built this way. None of us. It almost appears as though they were not "US".. No labels, no markings, no plaque hieroglyphs.. nothing ? Could Not be "US" like we are or were..
Dunn is brilliant but he made some errors... I haven't read his books yet actually but my opinion is the so called "Star Shafts" in the queens chamber were once filled with Liquid Mercury, once electricity was applied to the liquid metal it could be theoretically made to spin almost as fast as the speed of light. This would vibrate the entire Pyramid to any desired tone & since 25% of the structure is composed of quartz crystals it would release ample energy at significant levels. Picture the two arms or shafts as a giant tuning fork, changing the speed of one shaft would change the produced tone & the vibrations would cause the entire structure to produce energy & sound & the reason the shafts ended a mere 5 inches from the interior of the Queens chamber is because a now missing device once located there produced a large magnetic field to help activate the Mercury & make it spin, currently I'm also theorizing they used a now missing device very similar to a Mercury Arc Rectifier that converted energy from AC to DC & vice versa inside one of these chambers too because I'm also convinced the Civilization that built the structure utilized a global Mercury based technology on a lot of their machinery but I won't go into all that here... Without a doubt the Pyramid is a Power Plant
Underrated comment, appreciate the inpput The rotating mercury, seems as though some of that was stored in the gold (exterior appears to be gold, at least) spheres on top of the old world "tartarian" structures. Perhaps in that case, once the mercury was "spun up" it would act as a drain for atmospheric energy, which could then be "sung" though the rest of the lower structure for whatever purpose, perhaps even energizing the water below
@@slomnim Well thank you... I've been doubting my sanity since no one said anything about the idea when I ranted about it on far to many video's... But I do think I'm right - On either shaft the builders left only 5 inches of granite to separate the hollow shaft from the Queens chamber Now name me one thing the Builders did that was small & since no one can I suggest the only logical reason for constructing the shaft so close was because they needed a strong magnetic field to activate the Mercury *So there's a missing magnetic device from the Queens chamber But yes, the incredibly fast spinning Mercury would vibrate and activate/excite the multiple tonnage of Crystals in the stone (Can't recall but I think they said 250 million tons were in the Pyramid?) And the Vibration would create a tone & the tone or frequency could be changed by adjusting the speed of each shaft * I'm pretty sure you could play a certain tone & it would vibrate everything in the area if it was loud enough * And the Sound would also create vibration. I think there is a very good reason the shape of the tunnels resembles a tuning fork - that's because it is! I have no scientifical learnings but I do believe the spinning liquid metal would also cause Positive ions to be created by the spin & also it would act like a whirlpool to drag more ions up thru the Earth by creating a flow But what do I know? Tesla did say “If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.”
@@slomnim & your comment about "Energizing the water", yes the water question is fascinating Was the Water already electrified in the miles of unexplored tunnels below the Pyramid? I've heard that would create a flow & adjusts the polarity too I'm not sure but, yes.. it's obvious they definitely harvested energy from the water too & it did carry positive ions into the structure above
@@slomnim And don't get me started on the infamous Palenque Astronaut carving...That carving doesn't depict a rocket engine it is an artistic representation of a Mercury Arc Rectifier machine that turns Mercury into a Plasma & converts AC to DC We invented the same thing in modern times & they're quite beautiful as they glow a florescent blue But it's part of how they powered the Pyramids
Anyone still using the drill cores as argument that power tools were used in ancient Egypt, please watch Scientists against Myths debunking this in one of their videos. A must watch for anyone who's curious about these granite cores.
@@stephengallagher2209 it was to take in hydrogen and put out co2 or something like that. Maybe different elements but yea, something was brought in one end, and transformed to something out the other
I wouldndnt level with water why not level with a water mixture with sand? A bit like the self levelling we do now. It will find a level and you can find out where is high and where is not.
Ether the theory is true or not it accomplishes 1 thing,, It sparks debate on a Structure that know-one knows how or why it was built. A Win/Win scenario!
This person melted their brains so that we don't have to. Also RE: machine tools. While this would pre-date our current understanding of the origins of a lot of tools, it's not like they didn't already have all the parts to make a man/livestock powered mill. The differences between a grain mill, a machining mill, and a lathe are pretty minimal as far as what you need to build it. Ancient Egyptians probably didn't have 5 axis CNC lathes yet.
Like 90% of this guys theory checks out. He was wrong on a couple of his hypothesis, but also realize, Dunn, like the rest of us, have never seen this before. The funniest part, is “Dunn is wrong” but there’s no other theories that make more sense(or even thought of), for one instance. There’s a chemical on this side, and another chemical on that side. When you put these chemicals together, it creates hydrogen. Where are the other theories of why these two chemicals are found in the way they were found???
I do like Chris Dunn, I have read the power plant and watched a few of his talks. He does have some interesting things to say at times but c'mon man, the power plant stuff is just to flippin woo woo for me. I would love it if we found evidence of ancient machines but after years of being an ancient history enthusiast the cold hard facts are there is not one single piece of evidence to back that up. If ancient machines existed we would have found at least some evidence. But no, not a single nut, bolt, piece of metal, plastic....nothing. The power plant hypothesis gets a "no Bueno" from me.
I have built lots of things....but I defy you to find ANY of the tools I used to build them! The reason is because I took the tools with me and didn't just leave everything laying around for you to find. As was said in the video: the evidence is in the tool marks on the stone that could not have been made in the way the 'authorities' claim they were. That is the main disagreement with many of us who are accused of claiming that aliens or other mystical people made these things....only that what we're being regularly told about the ancient structures and how they were made cannot be correct. We need to dig into them deeper and with examination we'll no doubt find information that will help us figure out how they were made. Like the recent measuring of many stone vases that show precision building that absolutely could not have been done by hand...and would be very difficult to reproduce even today, so something was going on that is not being admitted and we'd be a better species if we knew the truth about our history.
@@recoilrob324 Maybe you never lost a too, but you also never lost a nails, bolt, nut, ...? This also has to be considered in the span of hundreds of years or even thousands of years in which this high civilization used those tools and never ever any one lost anything? And then there was this big catastrophy that wiped away this civilisation but everybody had time enough to put all their tools back in the drawer and hide it for future? A civilisation so sophisticated would not limit their technology to stone cutting and building but would also use their power to all aspects of life but still no sign of out of place technology. On the other hand there are plenty of tools that clearly show the evolution of craftsmanship from early rough stone hitting to sophisticated masonry and stone cutting. But the lost civilzation just appeared out of no where and vanished without trace? Interestingly the claim of people back then were not capable of doing such work comes from those people who do such claims for a living. There are videos on YT showing experimental archeologists replicating the concepts and mechanics of ancient people successfully. Of course they cannot achieve the degree of perfection. But people don't consider how life was back at ancient times. No Kindergarten no school. Kids started to work as soon as they could walk and learned for decades from masters of their craft, from dawn till dusk, every day. And it was not a 9-5 work just to get money to go on vacation. People's work defined their social status, was their honor and often literally their life. If they were ordered to create eg a vase for a pharao, they put everything they had into it to please their king and their gods and worked on this piece for weeks and even months. There are plenty of videos on YT showing people at their work with amazing skills (search for eg 'satisfying workers') nowadays. So why should people back then being less capable, lazy or idiots?
Is it possible that the evidence is the artifact itself? We see tool marks left on the stone, evidence. We never found a mummy or bones inside the pyramid but we consider them tombs? Kinda strange right?
@@forrestwhichard2862 The pyramid is located in the middle of the necropolis, more than 100 pyramids have been found in Egypt and indeed a few whole mummies and a lot of mummy remains have also been found in them. It would be quite impossible for all of them to be power plants.
@@forrestwhichard2862 There have been fragments of bone and various bit n bobs found in pyramids. The reason there are no whole mummies is because the tomb robbers had to completely destroy the mummy or it would get revenge in the afterlife. Listen to the vid again, the pharaoh's mortal body had to be in-tacked to live in the after life. So if you are a tomb robber, what are you gonna do ?...completely destroy it, and burn anything that burns for fire light because contrary to Chris Dunn's hypothesis they didn't have electricity to light up inside the pyramid.
i would like to fund your research as i believe you are onto the right path but i cannot use the time to research as much and as deeply as you can due to time restrictions, please reply to this with an email as i would like to fund you to do this research that my current job wont allow.
Thank you very much for the kind offer. Honestly, the best way anyone can fund the channel right now is just by watching the videos. It seems trite almost, but the income from Google ads increases significantly when videos get into the 10s of thousands of views. On top of that, the more people who watch, the more RUclips pushes the video to newer audiences, it seems. So it’s a win win situation. I too struggle with time, in between family and work and everything else life throws at you, so I don’t think I could offer anything worthwhile to a system such as memberships or patreon, at least not for the moment. It’s still very early days :) Thank you once again, I hope you had a good Christmas and have a happy new year!! (PS my email address is written in the about section of the channel!)
DID YOU GO TO COLLEGE FOR POWER PLANT DESIGN AND ENGINEERING? NO YOU DIDN'T!!! HOW CAN I TELL??? BECAUSE I DID!!! WHO ELSE DIDN'T GO TO COLLEGE FOR POWER PLANT DESIGN??? CHRISTOPHER DUNN!!! HE DOESN'T KNOW HOW POWER PLANTS WORK!!! YES, I BOUGHT HIS BOOK AND READ IT!!!
I never said they were more advanced than us, know more about science prohaps' for our time" Surprisingly there are us that don't find pyromids vary impressive...
Decimal inches are pronounced as thousandths of an inch. For example, 0.020 in. is pronounced "twenty thou" 0.005 in. is pronounced "five thou", etc. I'm also marveling at a man who is apparently an engineer waxing eloquently about how precise 0.02 inches is. 0.005 is considered a standard tolerance for manufacturing components and a 1/16 (0.063 in) is good enough for residential construction. And his assertion that Egyptians didn't have the wheel is beyond crazy. We have hieroglyphics discussing chariots and even cravings depicting the Egyptian chariots. Chariots require wheels to work.
Maybe read up on your history as well as the engineering. Pyramids at Giza are conventionally dated as around 2500 BC. Other pyramids even earlier. Chariots were introduced by Hyksos in second intermediate period dated 1759-1539 BC. Way later than when the pyramids were built.
I'llI believe they were used as tombs when somebody can finally demonstrate how slaves could Quarry these giant blocks with millimeter Precision using chisels and hammers then haul them 500 Miles without the use of the wiheeland then stack them hundreds of feet in the air. I don't know if this guy is correct but the subtle tone of mockery makes me think pot, meet kettle. Great channel though. No hate. 😁✌️
The internal ramp and counterweight theory is not only excellent but after predicting it was then supported by direct investigation. The only way any theory can be considered valid is if you can make predictions and then go find evidence of that prediction. These hair brained theories are never able to do that. They take what's there. Cherry pick some aspects and create a completely none testable theory. There are many mysteries how some of what was done was achieved. However to suddenly start behaving like prehistoric people ourselves and saying "we don't understand what happened so we will explain it with basically miracles". If there was an ancient civilisation with super tech. Some of this super tech must be found. Steel would have existed titanium which is actually pretty easy to get if you are high tech would be found. Yet we find nothing. Zero. So till someone finds something like this the likelyhood of it being true is vanishingly small. What remains is to explain how these people really did cut these stones and line them up so well. Without resorting to machines of which there is not even a SCEW anywhere to suggest existed
The gall of Dunn and others to try and poke holes in the conventional knowledge with these petty arguments about what is certain or not, only to use it to suggest BONKERS ideas of their own. I guess they think it makes their ideas equally possible.
The example of you claiming that convention knowledge is sacred and should not even be questioned is what’s wrong with the human progress. If everyone thought this way people would still be living in caves bashing rocks together.
@marcusrowe2098 They'd be bashing rocks together and calling people flying by in helicopters "quacks" and "conspiracy theorists" peddling misinformation about aerodynamics.
We all must respect Mr. Dunn for his continuing research on the ancient structures and artifacts in Egypt. In fact he proves without a doubt that an advanced ancient civilization must have existed. But even he does not know why the Great Pyramid was built, and when you don't know why you keep on making up things. There was a damn good reason to build these pyramids at Gizeh. A highly educated and skilled civilization that lived more than 20,000 years ago knew that their civilization would end in a couple of years due to the recurring and inescapable disaster that is caused by the ninth planet in our solar system. They knew that this disaster causes a huge tidal wave that is pulled all over our planet. At the end, after seven days, it leaves the Earth covered with a thick layer of mud. They also knew that this would happen five times before a new highly educated civilization, ours, would emerge. If they wanted to tell this next civilization about them, they needed a very strong and high building that could survive these disasters and still be visible. Many other constructions were made like to Serapeum to store seedlings to grow food as soon as possibel and surviving places high in the mountains as Machu Picchu. We explain much more about planet 9, the recurring flood cycle and its timeline, the rebirth of civilizations and ancient advanced technology in the e-book: "Planet 9 = Nibiru". It shows abundant and convincing evidence both in text and many depictions. It can be read on any computer, tablet or smartphone. Search: planet 9 roest
Yeah....now go ahead and make a model that works on the same principles. All just seems like a sciencey-sounding-words word salad to me. "Piezo-harmonic-microwave-resonating whatever". Also, what were the other pyramids for? They were just tombs? Or they were supposed to work without all the tunnels inside? Bit of a coincidence isn't it? Total BS if you ask me.
if you are going to deep dive, it would be better if you were to actually get second opinions instead of reading papers thinking those are opinions that you have personally touched upon. upon these kinds of conclusions your proposal that tools were used were interesting but you gave no solutions for yourself or what the pyramid's purpose were.
Sorry going to have to skip this post as pyramids were tombs and anyone who thinks they were some sort of power plant is tripping and I won't buy into it or promote it
To be fair to Mr Lines in Sand if you listen to the whole thing it becomes clear that he’s not on board with the theory! Personally I do invite everyone to take a close look at the gantenbrinks doors and what those pins are for.
Dunn is not an engineer, he was a simple tool maker/setter/operator. Dunn has no education or grounding in engineering principles. Dunn is a perfect example of the "Dunning-Kruegar" effect
Nah it wasn't a powerplant. The Great pyramid had a vacuum powered lift and 2 cranes, (N and S,) to help construct it. Water generated the vacuum, by pouring down to the subchamber which was plugged sometime later. The chamber shafts were polished Tura limestone to make a better seal with the stones they cut to use as pistons which pulled ropes and ran outside to spools. One chamber was up, the other chamber was down. Maybe they threw a sarcophagus in because he was a great guy, or that was a part of the mechanism and it broke. Vacuum is the power that allows your one foot to stop 3k lb. + car easily, and it's just a byproduct of running an engine. In the Egyptian's case running water. The central lift was a sled, and had a counterweight/sled above in the "mystery chamber." The King's chamber has a lip to prevent the last stone from getting pulled in under vacuum. The stone ball found was a bleed down valve, to make sure down didn't happen too fast under load. Gantenbrink doors were part of the decommissioning process.
@@BartSliggers No idea. But the water came from the Nile and went back to it. As much water as could fit down the descending passage. To the ceiling. The counterweight could balance things out, like a modern elevator.
I don't understand why a channel such as your with such really great and put together would continue to try to push this absurd theory that the Great Pyramid was some kind of electrical power plant. Could it be maybe you are getting some kind of cutback from the author? Either way it is totally ridiculous with all the hundreds of pyramids around the world that this one 5000 year old Khufu structure is some sort of a light company. How much stuff 4500 years ago did they need to power? Maybe a Pioneer receiver, a turntable, satellite TV? On the contrary to what anyone wants to believe there once upon a time was a full sarcophagus that made up that lower half you see in the Kings Chamber and in that there was a Pharaoh (rather it was Cheops or not is up in the air) and that is reason they had those blocking granite stones there. I've been in many caves, and many rooms and buildings including my bathroom that has acoustic properties, but that doesn't make them "Power Plants" Please go back to making good educational videos again and let this nonsense go. Have a Merry Christmas and be Safe!
I’ve examined this theory in depth as I would any other theory for any other video. I chose the Giza power plant theory due to its popularity as a fringe theory. I guess you didn’t watch the video before commenting because by the end it’s quite clear to me that there is little to absolutely zero chance of the theory being possible.
It should be made clear this is a deep dive into one single theory by one single man, not a deep dive into the possibility that pyramids were power plants of any sort. There are many possibilities on how the pyramids could produce power, not just one. The title should be A Giza power plant theory not THE theory.
I’m sorry but the book originally written in the 90s is called “THE Giza power plant” and the cover of the book and a diagram from within said book are in the video’s thumbnail. The opening “scene” of the video is a quote from Chris Dunn, the video description says it’s about Christopher Dunn and the video clarified in under 20 seconds that it’s about Chris Dunn’s main work, THE Giza power plant theory. I don’t know what else I could have done here to clarify lol.
Hmmmmm. Let's think up some more crazy ideas and make videos about them and the Great Pyramid. Be real thorough and scientific about it. Your 'Lines in Sand' doesn't draw a line at the truth. How about that the pyramid was built by enterprising Chevrolet Corvette auto salesmen transported back in time to open a dealership for Khufu to present new models? They used the Grand Gallery as a showroom display area. The Philadelphia Experiment actually succeeded with these guys, little known fact. I could MAKE UP a complete story about that. 'Let's make some more cool videos, Daddy!"
I don’t usually respond to antagonistic comments but you’ve been a frequent contributor to the comment sections on most of my videos so I’m going to give civilised dialogue a chance here. You seem to have missed the parts of the video where I have frequently mentioned that the sheer lack of evidence consistently undermines most if not all of the points put forward by the author. You also seem to be labouring under the assumption that I am a proponent of the Giza power plant theory, which leads me to believe you haven’t really watched much of this video before deciding to make this comment. It is very easy to sit there and say “this theory is a load of rubbish”. Just as easy as it is to say “the pyramids are 100% definitely power plants!”. The only way to know for certain - at least in regards to making something that could even remotely resemble an informed decision - is to make the effort to study what is being presented by the author. On top of that - There’s a lot of hot air online about the power plant theory but next to zero actual investigative work, so I decided to share my thoughts on the matter seeing as I was going on this journey anyway. Here on the channel I welcome everyone with any interest in pyramids and ancient Egypt, whatever their truth might be. My line in the sand is drawn firmly in front of those who feel the need to make unhelpful, inimical or even hostile contributions to the discourse here.
@linesinsand3928 I think this guy is completely unaware of what a massive following Dunn has and the huge platform he has been given for his wacky ideas by rogan etc
Just last week watched a video starting out in 1900 with a famous Egyptologist finding a pit all his colleagues dismissed, but 40 minutes later led to this & a guy who made a working model for water only to accidentally discover it was a Pulse Generator. Fascinating.
Sounds fake

another great episode brother, still the only channel i got notifications on for
I appreciate the effort involved with the making and producing of this video. Great work 💜
Thank you! 🙏
The thing that intrigues me the most is the fact that there’s a sulfur smell from the queens chamber. What else would explain the smell other than a chemical reaction with compounds containing sulfur. There’s so many discrepancies and odd things about the pyramids that the only why to explain it is to think outside the box. I get that the Pharos were the Egyptians gods to them and that that would be a motivator to build the pyramids but the level of accuracy and the many mathematical coincidences makes me think otherwise. Now the fact there isn’t any evidence that there were transducers and other advanced technology’s left behind is odd and makes it hard to believe but the fact still remains that all the tunnels and chambers definitely had a purpose.
Great stuff. Really enjoyed it. The longer the better.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.
Im not taking away from your content, this is a great video. Theres a lot of videos "debunking" these alternative theories. But theres never any real rebuttals or convincing arguments otherwise. I don't believe they were powerplants but i do believe the dynastic Egyptians found the great pyramids left over from a much older lost civilization. Then spent thousands of years building a successful civilization contributing their own awesome structures in the area. The matching ruins of the previous civilization exists at many places across the world and our ancestors just added to these pre-existing sites
The pharisees are were the pharaohs.
Dunn's theory strikes me as similar to proposing a traffic bridge was specifically built to generate sound because it vibrates when cars travel over it.
Pretty wild to propose such a 'out there' theory as an engineer, and not provide even the smallest scale model to verify any of it..
He did... and now we know you are low IQ lol
I saw a video with a dude that made a scale model that generated power but I can't freaking find it again. Had I known it would be so hard I'd have saved it.
Hey im responding kind of late but look up thunderstorm generator or martin fleichmann. Apparently its a replica of this technology and it does seem to work. I believe the schematics to build it are also publicly available
Chris Dunn who made the book in the title made a scale model showing how it’s possible
Yeah cause using a make shift hammer and a little chisel makes sense. Do your research dude. Just the geometry alone tells you what there telling us isn’t true.
The Giza Power Plant Theory reminds me of the theory that birds aren't real.
Thank you
well to be fair harry potter is just as believable and evident as the bronze age builders and tombs.
Then who keeps nutting on my car?
I have massive respect for Mr. Dunn for speaking out the engineer's perspective against the ridiculous bronze age tomb hypothesis we've been told and all the incredible analysis he has provided for the vase, the drill core and the sarcophagi, but i'm not going to buy some random alternative idea either just because I like the guy who proposes it. demnostrate on how this type of structure produces power and demonstrate why 99% of the structure has to be highly geometrically placed stone. where the energy was stored and what was it used for. until then i'm fine admitting that I don't have a clue what the pyramids are, who built them and when.
Nikla tesla, created the wardenclyffe tower, he was supplied with classified files that were based off the schematics of the pyramids, look into each blue prints and purpose off his tower to the pyramid and try to connect the dots
Well , this is very interesting and the parts that actually work and make logical since are Important , Thank you , Liked and shared :) QC
The easiest way to ex-lain phase cancellation is to think of it in terms of electronic signal a positive charge will cancel out a negative. Simply put 1 plus -1 = 0
Hope that helps great video
I think Dunn's theory is interesting and worthy of debate, these structures are full of unexplained anomalies and unanswered questions. These structures really do not match hand guided tools. Im just saying, I can fell a tree with an axe, but this proves nothing about how my house was built.
How can you debate something that can be debunked in 30 seconds?
@@MrAchile13 30 seconds? If you're able to do that in the medium of written text I reckon you need what about 5 lines? Let's hear it then, champ.
@@CoffeeFiend1 if you do a quick google search about baroque and neoclassical architecture, you will see stone work much better then that of the Great Pyramid. It should take you roughly 20 seconds.
In the 10 seconds left, you can google close up photos of the Giza pyramids, so you can see the rough finish of the outer blocks and the tons of plaster and rubble used to fill in the gaps between the stones.
So where exactly is the need for lost high tech?
Regarding your skepticism about splitting rock with wood, I first learned of it perhaps 30 years ago, so believe it’s well known in the historical record. I can’t find a non-paywall paper, but there’s one by Roger Rowell of the University of Wisconsin, Madison that actually references Egypt.

Thanks Pete!!
@@linesinsand3928 I posted a link to it on researchgate in a reply to my comment, so you can find it in your spam folder
53:41 An interesting point about raising the gabling above the grand gallery. But Hancock can only talk about tuning these granite blocks because of their very odd shapes and the lines and ‘bowl’ features in their upper surfaces. If they were more uniform and hadn’t had the bowl depressions made in them (taking lots of effort) then his theory would hold even less water.
But the same should be true the other way. If this is a stack of granite for the purpose of spreading the load from higher in the pyramid that no one was supposed to ever see again after construction, why did they bother with the bowls and lines? They would have to be extremely bored to choose to carve the bowls for fun!
1:07:47 To be fair to Hancock on these. I believe he predicted that similar would be found at the end of the Northern shaft and those show even more signs of being electrodes for hydrolysis rather than having a ceremonial function.
Electrodes deteriorate during electrolysis. The idea for building such a monster pyramid for such tiny electrodes that might last a year having spent god knows how long building it and moving 2.5 million tons of stone is so ludicrous I can see why nobody wants to listen to such stupid theories
@@KowBoySpace One electrode deteriorates, the other electrode gets plated. If you look at the pictures of the northern and southern gantenbrinks doors, that is one interpretation of what you can see. There is definite tapering of one and the other is a different colour and looks fatter. I’d say compare this with the hook found at the bottom of one of those shafts. That’s oxidised to copper green, but it’s still in very good shape.
Further, across the northern and southern doors there are four copper handles. Only one of which is crudely sitting in a groove in the thin stone. When Ancient architects hi-res pics first showed this, it was I who alerted Hancock to it. A half remembered chemistry lesson, bolstered by a quick google, showed that ‘recessed cathodes’ are a thing in electrolysis as it makes it last longer before you have to replace it. So to my mind there are several pieces of evidence that point towards electrolysis.
I agree that it sounds crazy, but the whole thing is crazy. Keeping two 20x20cm shafts climbing 60 odd metres into the masonry only to end in these blocks with little copper handles that no one is ever going to see!
All the explanations have issues: electrolysis is far out and requires undiscovered new rooms.
I think they look pretty terrible as ceremonial end points. Particularly with the aforementioned crude groove and graffiti behind. If they are handles they are weirdly high on the door and also the pins do stick out the back.
Lastly, the theory put forward by History for Granite about them being covers for the shafts, again it’s 20x20cm you don’t need copper handles, particularly two copper handles mounted high with tiny loops! One horizontal handle would be far better. Or simply just a slab would do the trick to prevent debris entering the shaft during construction.
So the other theories aren’t without issues. And this is just one of many pyramid oddities which are open to interpretation.
As if the existence of machines is more baffling than the sheer existence of these giant pyramids.
It’s like, who figured out “how” to build these things?? But wait? They built these based off of plans for a Power Plant?? How did they figure out what a power plant is, and how to build it? Then start building it(perfectly), and there’s just, so much missing here. I believe it all, but it’s truly un believable.
1:09:06 says it all. Looking forward to hearing more from you.
Dunn's explanation of his theory is like Star Trek technobabble; sciencey-sounding gibberish.
It's sounds like gibberish because you don't understand science and engineering.
just how well this describes all the proposed bronze age construction methods as well haha.
How on earth could a stone pyramid generate power and what would anyone do with electricity in 3500BC?
There's a video out there saying pyramids broadcast radio waves in the 200-400 metre range. So maybe the Pharaohs used the Great Pyramid to tune into Radio Luxembourg on 208 metres! The one million watt signal broadcast all over Europe so surely a well-built pyramid would pick it up!
“How on earth could a stone pyramid generate power”
It can’t. Just wanted to give the theory a thorough once-over.
Whilst being another great post by Lines In Sand, I watched this particular one for the entertainment value.
Dunn and Hancock have both been very successful in what they do, but their ideas and suggestions are a bit.... silly. For lack of a better word, lol.
Couldn't agree more. And all this to find a power source to explain power tools that never existed. The drill holes don't actually show 0.1 inch/ rotation speed at any point. Professionally debunked by Scientists against Myths here on yt if anyone is interested.
Well I wonder if it was a power plant did someone sabotage and caused to explode? Heard the inner chamber shows signs of being moved about an inch inside. Just thoughts that come to mind.
1:07:47 Hi Sean, (correct me if I’ve chosen the wrong spelling). I too keep an open mind about the various pyramid theories and something that sticks in my mind is what Christopher Dunne says about if you are explaining the great pyramid then your theory has to explain all its parts. And for me the “pins” at the ends of the Queens Chamber shafts are the most compelling evidence for Christopher Dunnes theory of a functional rather than ceremonial pyramid. Which you glossed over a bit here.
Because the picture evidence reveals that these pins are not handles, or the backs of handles placed there in some ceremony. If that were the case we would expect symmetry, but that is not what we have. Instead both the Northern and Southern shafts pins on the Gantenbrink doors show signs of electrolysis having taken place. One pin is fatter in a misshapen kind of way and looks a different colour even, perhaps shinier, the other tapers away. This is consistent with electroplating of one and the eating away of the other. Hence the diagnosis of electrolysis. This was exciting evidence in and of itself. But then Matt Sibson of Ancient Architects published the high res photos from the exploration of the Northern Queens chamber shaft. And this showed something extraordinary, one of the pins was poking out away from the “door” but the other sat much closer in a (crudely) chiselled groove in the “door” itself. I looked up recessing the anode or cathode in electrolysis and discovered, to my astonishment, that it is a known technique which prolongs how long the anode/cathode lasts.
So we have two pieces of evidence that point to electrolysis, the playing/eating away and the recessing. But there is also a third point of interest: it looks very ugly! The only metal, buried in the middle of thousands of tons of stone during construction in what must have been a ceremonial capacity if they aren’t functional, yet they look like that? The burial only, mainstream you might say, have to account for how these pins look, now that we know they aren’t perfect little handles.
To be on the safe side you should mention his name several times in the comment, always with a different spelling.
Excellent points, thank you for sharing!
I think that you have pins in your noggin. The panels blocking the vent shafts have pins that allowed them to be moved and secured.
The pins could have corroded naturally on their own over thousands of years.
@@tyrannosaurusimperator Compare how these look with the hook found in one of the shafts. That’s in much better condition. But I agree some sort of natural explanation might be found on the electrolysis hypothesis. However the recess/groove that one sits in also needs explanation.
Great video!
Thank you!
Really a ridiculous video, actually.@@linesinsand3928
Evidence of ancient batteries have been found, as well, which could have powered such tools to build the pyramids. The pyramids may not have been the original or main source of electric energy (if that is, indeed, what they were built for.) Referencing 41:35 in the video
Dunn provides a lot of useful fodder for debate. He is right in that you need people from many different disciplines to look at a complex problem I just don't see the power plant theory as being correct without much more evidence
It's funny how u chuckle about the age of the book, a mere 26 years old, and it coming from an ers we don't see anymore, when discussing thousands of years old pyramid, shows how quickly time changes perceptions.
It's funny Dunn dismisses levitation for the construction of the pyramid, considering he claimed on camera that the Coral Castle was built using levitation.
That’s an interesting point that I didn’t connect with the wider context. There’s a section of the book dedicated to Coral Castle which I omitted.
I think the implication is that some sort of mechanical / electrical energy may have assisted the man at Coral Castle in building his house.
Either way, I don’t think much of the whole thing at all, and it seemed irrelevant to the theory at hand. Maybe I’m misunderstanding.
Either way, that’s a good spot. Nice one!
@@linesinsand3928 There is a documentary (it can be found on yt) about the Coral Castle, where Dunn says the builder was able to reverse the gravitational/magnetic (I don't remember exactly) poles of the block's of stone, using electricity and make them levitate.
My point is that levitation it's not too fringe of an idea for Dunn. And since he claims the Egyptians had electricity, I don't think it's something he would not claim.
But the second point is that he would say anything for money, then back it up with "look at my engineering degree". Which is both sad and dishonest.
I just finished the book. I agree with many theories Dunn has written there but to be honest I think such massive project would not be undertaken to use energy for a civilization on earth. It is no coincidence that the pyramids are in line with Orion. Maybe other civilizations used earth as a giant power plant to fuel their spaceships or to send energy all the way to their far out galaxies.
I am also curious as to who used this energy and how??
When he discusses reversing the coupling I assume he is talking about phasing. Phase cancellation
It would be one thing if it was just one or two ridiculous notions.. Nope.. The whole entirety of everything Dunn says just screams bullshit. It sure does sell a lot of books but I can't see how anybody seriously can entertain this... This is just ridiculous
EXCELLENT Chanel ! Long time Sub :)
You are 100% correct in your assessment. 100%
Dunn is trying, he means well.. but none of us here today have even the slightest idea of why and how the structures were designed and built this way. None of us. It almost appears as though they were not "US".. No labels, no markings, no plaque hieroglyphs.. nothing ? Could Not be "US" like we are or were..
Is he trying?
I think he is trying...to make a lot of money.
@@celsus7979 that may be true…. Or more than maybe….
Connecting the earth's double torus magnetosphere with the OOrt cloud of it's magnetosphere.
35:35 Bro they built those pyramids but we still doubt that they knew what a wheel is? Come on.
For this theory to be true, it would he teally helpful to find a "receiver" for the supposed power produced.
Dunn is brilliant but he made some errors...
I haven't read his books yet actually but my opinion is the so called "Star Shafts" in the queens chamber were once filled with Liquid Mercury, once electricity was applied to the liquid metal it could be theoretically made to spin almost as fast as the speed of light. This would vibrate the entire Pyramid to any desired tone & since 25% of the structure is composed of quartz crystals it would release ample energy at significant levels.
Picture the two arms or shafts as a giant tuning fork, changing the speed of one shaft would change the produced tone & the vibrations would cause the entire structure to produce energy & sound
& the reason the shafts ended a mere 5 inches from the interior of the Queens chamber is because a now missing device once located there produced a large magnetic field to help activate the Mercury & make it spin, currently I'm also theorizing they used a now missing device very similar to a Mercury Arc Rectifier that converted energy from AC to DC & vice versa inside one of these chambers too because I'm also convinced the Civilization that built the structure utilized a global Mercury based technology on a lot of their machinery but I won't go into all that here...
Without a doubt the Pyramid is a Power Plant
Underrated comment, appreciate the inpput
The rotating mercury, seems as though some of that was stored in the gold (exterior appears to be gold, at least) spheres on top of the old world "tartarian" structures. Perhaps in that case, once the mercury was "spun up" it would act as a drain for atmospheric energy, which could then be "sung" though the rest of the lower structure for whatever purpose, perhaps even energizing the water below
@@slomnim Well thank you...
I've been doubting my sanity since no one said anything about the idea when I ranted about it on far to many video's...
But I do think I'm right - On either shaft the builders left only 5 inches of granite to separate the hollow shaft from the Queens chamber
Now name me one thing the Builders did that was small & since no one can I suggest the only logical reason for constructing the shaft so close was because they needed a strong magnetic field to activate the Mercury
*So there's a missing magnetic device from the Queens chamber
But yes, the incredibly fast spinning Mercury would vibrate and activate/excite the multiple tonnage of Crystals in the stone (Can't recall but I think they said 250 million tons were in the Pyramid?)
And the Vibration would create a tone & the tone or frequency could be changed by adjusting the speed of each shaft
* I'm pretty sure you could play a certain tone & it would vibrate everything in the area if it was loud enough
* And the Sound would also create vibration. I think there is a very good reason the shape of the tunnels resembles a tuning fork - that's because it is!
I have no scientifical learnings but I do believe the spinning liquid metal would also cause Positive ions to be created by the spin & also it would act like a whirlpool to drag more ions up thru the Earth by creating a flow
But what do I know?
Tesla did say
“If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.”
@@slomnim & your comment about "Energizing the water", yes the water question is fascinating
Was the Water already electrified in the miles of unexplored tunnels below the Pyramid? I've heard that would create a flow & adjusts the polarity too
I'm not sure but, yes.. it's obvious they definitely harvested energy from the water too & it did carry positive ions into the structure above
@@slomnim And don't get me started on the infamous Palenque Astronaut carving...That carving doesn't depict a rocket engine it is an artistic representation of a Mercury Arc Rectifier machine that turns Mercury into a Plasma & converts AC to DC
We invented the same thing in modern times & they're quite beautiful as they glow a florescent blue
But it's part of how they powered the Pyramids
"Giant bloody lawnmower", lmao.
OMG this hypothesis makes absolutely no sense on any level.
Total poppycock!
Anyone still using the drill cores as argument that power tools were used in ancient Egypt, please watch Scientists against Myths debunking this in one of their videos. A must watch for anyone who's curious about these granite cores.
So they built the pyramids to get electricity to build the pyramids.

Lmao apparently so
What kills Dunn's theory is it only works as an hypothesis on the Great Pyramid. Say it's correct, then what were the other two, or all the others?
Are the other pyramids older than Giza?

Also RE: machine tools. While this would pre-date our current understanding of the origins of a lot of tools, it's not like they didn't already have all the parts to make a man/livestock powered mill. The differences between a grain mill, a machining mill, and a lathe are pretty minimal as far as what you need to build it.
Ancient Egyptians probably didn't have 5 axis CNC lathes yet.
What came first, the machine tools or the pyramid that powered the machine tools?
@@linesinsand3928 I'm guessing donkeys, pyramid donkey power!
Like 90% of this guys theory checks out. He was wrong on a couple of his hypothesis, but also realize, Dunn, like the rest of us, have never seen this before. The funniest part, is “Dunn is wrong” but there’s no other theories that make more sense(or even thought of), for one instance. There’s a chemical on this side, and another chemical on that side. When you put these chemicals together, it creates hydrogen. Where are the other theories of why these two chemicals are found in the way they were found???
I do like Chris Dunn, I have read the power plant and watched a few of his talks. He does have some interesting things to say at times but c'mon man, the power plant stuff is just to flippin woo woo for me. I would love it if we found evidence of ancient machines but after years of being an ancient history enthusiast the cold hard facts are there is not one single piece of evidence to back that up.
If ancient machines existed we would have found at least some evidence. But no, not a single nut, bolt, piece of metal, plastic....nothing. The power plant hypothesis gets a "no Bueno" from me.
I have built lots of things....but I defy you to find ANY of the tools I used to build them! The reason is because I took the tools with me and didn't just leave everything laying around for you to find. As was said in the video: the evidence is in the tool marks on the stone that could not have been made in the way the 'authorities' claim they were.
That is the main disagreement with many of us who are accused of claiming that aliens or other mystical people made these things....only that what we're being regularly told about the ancient structures and how they were made cannot be correct. We need to dig into them deeper and with examination we'll no doubt find information that will help us figure out how they were made.
Like the recent measuring of many stone vases that show precision building that absolutely could not have been done by hand...and would be very difficult to reproduce even today, so something was going on that is not being admitted and we'd be a better species if we knew the truth about our history.
@@recoilrob324 Maybe you never lost a too, but you also never lost a nails, bolt, nut, ...? This also has to be considered in the span of hundreds of years or even thousands of years in which this high civilization used those tools and never ever any one lost anything?
And then there was this big catastrophy that wiped away this civilisation but everybody had time enough to put all their tools back in the drawer and hide it for future?
A civilisation so sophisticated would not limit their technology to stone cutting and building but would also use their power to all aspects of life but still no sign of out of place technology.
On the other hand there are plenty of tools that clearly show the evolution of craftsmanship from early rough stone hitting to sophisticated masonry and stone cutting. But the lost civilzation just appeared out of no where and vanished without trace?
Interestingly the claim of people back then were not capable of doing such work comes from those people who do such claims for a living. There are videos on YT showing experimental archeologists replicating the concepts and mechanics of ancient people successfully. Of course they cannot achieve the degree of perfection.
But people don't consider how life was back at ancient times. No Kindergarten no school. Kids started to work as soon as they could walk and learned for decades from masters of their craft, from dawn till dusk, every day. And it was not a 9-5 work just to get money to go on vacation. People's work defined their social status, was their honor and often literally their life.
If they were ordered to create eg a vase for a pharao, they put everything they had into it to please their king and their gods and worked on this piece for weeks and even months.
There are plenty of videos on YT showing people at their work with amazing skills (search for eg 'satisfying workers') nowadays. So why should people back then being less capable, lazy or idiots?
Is it possible that the evidence is the artifact itself? We see tool marks left on the stone, evidence. We never found a mummy or bones inside the pyramid but we consider them tombs? Kinda strange right?
@@forrestwhichard2862 The pyramid is located in the middle of the necropolis, more than 100 pyramids have been found in Egypt and indeed a few whole mummies and a lot of mummy remains have also been found in them. It would be quite impossible for all of them to be power plants.
@@forrestwhichard2862 There have been fragments of bone and various bit n bobs found in pyramids. The reason there are no whole mummies is because the tomb robbers had to completely destroy the mummy or it would get revenge in the afterlife. Listen to the vid again, the pharaoh's mortal body had to be in-tacked to live in the after life. So if you are a tomb robber, what are you gonna do ?...completely destroy it, and burn anything that burns for fire light because contrary to Chris Dunn's hypothesis they didn't have electricity to light up inside the pyramid.

You forgot the hidden fusion reactor in the pyramid.

Well, the plant wouldn't have been the only source of power. It's purpose wouldn't be to make buildings constructed with stone possible.
Decimal inches are pronounced as thousandths of an inch. For example, 0.020 in. is pronounced "twenty thou" 0.005 in. is pronounced "five thou", etc.
I'm also marveling at a man who is apparently an engineer waxing eloquently about how precise 0.02 inches is. 0.005 is considered a standard tolerance for manufacturing components and a 1/16 (0.063 in) is good enough for residential construction.
And his assertion that Egyptians didn't have the wheel is beyond crazy. We have hieroglyphics discussing chariots and even cravings depicting the Egyptian chariots. Chariots require wheels to work.
Maybe read up on your history as well as the engineering. Pyramids at Giza are conventionally dated as around 2500 BC. Other pyramids even earlier. Chariots were introduced by Hyksos in second intermediate period dated 1759-1539 BC. Way later than when the pyramids were built.

The internal ramp and counterweight theory is not only excellent but after predicting it was then supported by direct investigation. The only way any theory can be considered valid is if you can make predictions and then go find evidence of that prediction. These hair brained theories are never able to do that. They take what's there. Cherry pick some aspects and create a completely none testable theory.
There are many mysteries how some of what was done was achieved. However to suddenly start behaving like prehistoric people ourselves and saying "we don't understand what happened so we will explain it with basically miracles".

So till someone finds something like this the likelyhood of it being true is vanishingly small. What remains is to explain how these people really did cut these stones and line them up so well. Without resorting to machines of which there is not even a SCEW anywhere to suggest existed
29:38 Dunn's statement shows there is a simple explanation for these anomalies. It wasn't the Egyptians who built them.
The gall of Dunn and others to try and poke holes in the conventional knowledge with these petty arguments about what is certain or not, only to use it to suggest BONKERS ideas of their own. I guess they think it makes their ideas equally possible.
The example of you claiming that convention knowledge is sacred and should not even be questioned is what’s wrong with the human progress. If everyone thought this way people would still be living in caves bashing rocks together.
@marcusrowe2098 They'd be bashing rocks together and calling people flying by in helicopters "quacks" and "conspiracy theorists" peddling misinformation about aerodynamics.
We all must respect Mr. Dunn for his continuing research on the ancient structures and artifacts in Egypt. In fact he proves without a doubt that an advanced ancient civilization must have existed. But even he does not know why the Great Pyramid was built, and when you don't know why you keep on making up things. There was a damn good reason to build these pyramids at Gizeh. A highly educated and skilled civilization that lived more than 20,000 years ago knew that their civilization would end in a couple of years due to the recurring and inescapable disaster that is caused by the ninth planet in our solar system. They knew that this disaster causes a huge tidal wave that is pulled all over our planet. At the end, after seven days, it leaves the Earth covered with a thick layer of mud. They also knew that this would happen five times before a new highly educated civilization, ours, would emerge. If they wanted to tell this next civilization about them, they needed a very strong and high building that could survive these disasters and still be visible. Many other constructions were made like to Serapeum to store seedlings to grow food as soon as possibel and surviving places high in the mountains as Machu Picchu. We explain much more about planet 9, the recurring flood cycle and its timeline, the rebirth of civilizations and ancient advanced technology in the e-book: "Planet 9 = Nibiru". It shows abundant and convincing evidence both in text and many depictions. It can be read on any computer, tablet or smartphone. Search: planet 9 roest
Yeah....now go ahead and make a model that works on the same principles. All just seems like a sciencey-sounding-words word salad to me. "Piezo-harmonic-microwave-resonating whatever". Also, what were the other pyramids for? They were just tombs? Or they were supposed to work without all the tunnels inside? Bit of a coincidence isn't it? Total BS if you ask me.
This is why I favour Geoff Drumm’s theory over Chris Dunn’s - there is an “answer” by Drumm for ALL pyramids, not just one
@@linesinsand3928 ok, I haven't heard that theory. Can I bank on you making a video about Mr Drumm?
If I end up learning more about his theory then absolutely! Cheers!
I suppose it takes a pyramid to power the technology needed to build a pyramid.
Best not to think too hard about it.
@@celsus7979So it's a pyramid scheme?
Why am I even watching this? 😂
Theory? that's an insult of every scientific theory ever. please dont use theory with bunk nonsense.
I love your accent, but every time you say “well shaft” I hear “Welsh aft”. 🤓
if you are going to deep dive, it would be better if you were to actually get second opinions instead of reading papers thinking those are opinions that you have personally touched upon. upon these kinds of conclusions your proposal that tools were used were interesting but you gave no solutions for yourself or what the pyramid's purpose were.
Cayce is pronounced K-C
Thank you 🙏
Sorry going to have to skip this post as pyramids were tombs and anyone who thinks they were some sort of power plant is tripping and I won't buy into it or promote it
To be fair to Mr Lines in Sand if you listen to the whole thing it becomes clear that he’s not on board with the theory!
Personally I do invite everyone to take a close look at the gantenbrinks doors and what those pins are for.
Too many ads
Dunn is not an engineer, he was a simple tool maker/setter/operator.
Dunn has no education or grounding in engineering principles.
Dunn is a perfect example of the "Dunning-Kruegar" effect
Nah it wasn't a powerplant. The Great pyramid had a vacuum powered lift and 2 cranes, (N and S,) to help construct it. Water generated the vacuum, by pouring down to the subchamber which was plugged sometime later. The chamber shafts were polished Tura limestone to make a better seal with the stones they cut to use as pistons which pulled ropes and ran outside to spools. One chamber was up, the other chamber was down. Maybe they threw a sarcophagus in because he was a great guy, or that was a part of the mechanism and it broke. Vacuum is the power that allows your one foot to stop 3k lb. + car easily, and it's just a byproduct of running an engine. In the Egyptian's case running water. The central lift was a sled, and had a counterweight/sled above in the "mystery chamber." The King's chamber has a lip to prevent the last stone from getting pulled in under vacuum. The stone ball found was a bleed down valve, to make sure down didn't happen too fast under load. Gantenbrink doors were part of the decommissioning process.
How many liters of water would one have to lift to create enough vacuum to lift 1 ton of stone ?
All that to lift stone onto the structure itself huh..
@@BartSliggers No idea. But the water came from the Nile and went back to it. As much water as could fit down the descending passage. To the ceiling. The counterweight could balance things out, like a modern elevator.
Your car's brakes are hydraulic, not vacuum powered. Why would you add brake fluid if it was going to be removed by a vacuum pump?
The subterranean chamber was the only one not plugged
I don't understand why a channel such as your with such really great and put together would continue to try to push this absurd theory that the Great Pyramid was some kind of electrical power plant. Could it be maybe you are getting some kind of cutback from the author? Either way it is totally ridiculous with all the hundreds of pyramids around the world that this one 5000 year old Khufu structure is some sort of a light company. How much stuff 4500 years ago did they need to power? Maybe a Pioneer receiver, a turntable, satellite TV? On the contrary to what anyone wants to believe there once upon a time was a full sarcophagus that made up that lower half you see in the Kings Chamber and in that there was a Pharaoh (rather it was Cheops or not is up in the air) and that is reason they had those blocking granite stones there.
I've been in many caves, and many rooms and buildings including my bathroom that has acoustic properties, but that doesn't make them "Power Plants"
Please go back to making good educational videos again and let this nonsense go.
Have a Merry Christmas and be Safe!
I’ve examined this theory in depth as I would any other theory for any other video. I chose the Giza power plant theory due to its popularity as a fringe theory.
I guess you didn’t watch the video before commenting because by the end it’s quite clear to me that there is little to absolutely zero chance of the theory being possible.
This is trash.
It should be made clear this is a deep dive into one single theory by one single man, not a deep dive into the possibility that pyramids were power plants of any sort. There are many possibilities on how the pyramids could produce power, not just one. The title should be A Giza power plant theory not THE theory.
I’m sorry but the book originally written in the 90s is called “THE Giza power plant” and the cover of the book and a diagram from within said book are in the video’s thumbnail. The opening “scene” of the video is a quote from Chris Dunn, the video description says it’s about Christopher Dunn and the video clarified in under 20 seconds that it’s about Chris Dunn’s main work, THE Giza power plant theory. I don’t know what else I could have done here to clarify lol.
@@linesinsand3928 Apologies but not you this was directed at. Minions see this & jump straight to conclusion this refers to all concepts of the idea.
Hmmmmm. Let's think up some more crazy ideas and make videos about them and the Great Pyramid. Be real thorough and scientific about it. Your 'Lines in Sand' doesn't draw a line at the truth. How about that the pyramid was built by enterprising Chevrolet Corvette auto salesmen transported back in time to open a dealership for Khufu to present new models? They used the Grand Gallery as a showroom display area. The Philadelphia Experiment actually succeeded with these guys, little known fact. I could MAKE UP a complete story about that. 'Let's make some more cool videos, Daddy!"
I don’t usually respond to antagonistic comments but you’ve been a frequent contributor to the comment sections on most of my videos so I’m going to give civilised dialogue a chance here.
You seem to have missed the parts of the video where I have frequently mentioned that the sheer lack of evidence consistently undermines most if not all of the points put forward by the author. You also seem to be labouring under the assumption that I am a proponent of the Giza power plant theory, which leads me to believe you haven’t really watched much of this video before deciding to make this comment.
It is very easy to sit there and say “this theory is a load of rubbish”. Just as easy as it is to say “the pyramids are 100% definitely power plants!”. The only way to know for certain - at least in regards to making something that could even remotely resemble an informed decision - is to make the effort to study what is being presented by the author. On top of that - There’s a lot of hot air online about the power plant theory but next to zero actual investigative work, so I decided to share my thoughts on the matter seeing as I was going on this journey anyway.
Here on the channel I welcome everyone with any interest in pyramids and ancient Egypt, whatever their truth might be.
My line in the sand is drawn firmly in front of those who feel the need to make unhelpful, inimical or even hostile contributions to the discourse here.
@linesinsand3928 I think this guy is completely unaware of what a massive following Dunn has and the huge platform he has been given for his wacky ideas by rogan etc
Nothing new here... bandwagon jumper
Who, me or Chris Dunn?
