- The building of the pyramids would have stretched the capabilities of builders and engineers even today, so how did the Egyptians do it? Taken from the documentary: "Pyramids - how were they built?" on DVD from www.rocketrights.tv

Pretty decent video,It showed me a few things i was wondering,but it tell us too much stuff we already know about like how we build stuff today.
You can replicate the Great Pyramid in Minecraft, but to get it to a level of smoothness equal to or even possibly greater than that of the Great Pyramid, you would probably have to start with a based which is about two-hundred blocks square.
If you were only interested in confirming the means of making the pyramid, you could limit yourself to doing only the outer wall. The way to do this is to use steps for the exterior wall, and to use blocks or slabs to create a base for each new rank. You would simply make the sides one-hundred and ninety-nine blocks across with the addition of a corner step on each corner. Just make each succeeding rank one unit smaller, and continue for hours until you have come to a peak or pinnacle.
A lot of people involved! All my admiration for the great technic used ! Of course is something difficult to understand but I'm quite sure that Egypt gives to the world a fabulous lesson of many sciences that still today are studied for many scientists!
2,300,000 Stones over 20 years by 25,000 people is only the equivalent of one person moving 4.6 blocks per year. But its even simpler than that since those who quarried the stone were not those who transported them. Like an efficient assembly line the builders were organized into specialized gangs. The vast majority of the stones can be pushed with relatively small numbers of people with many of the stones being quarried on the plateau itself.
Would you please post where you found the information about the air pockets and human hair being found inside pyramid stoneworks? Thank you..!
how do they know the time it was build?
0:47 Does it look right? I'm trying to bash or anything since I lack knowledge but isn't it like 6 blocks on that wooden boat? If one of them weights about 2.5 tons then it's about 15 tons of stone right there. Would it even float??
Exactly.
There are also tons of other things about the pyramids that indicate that the builders had immense knowledge of science.
warning - Only short clip to an entire DVD... you don't learn jack hole from this clip!
@COBWEBOWNZYA :: John Anthony West says the rain damage to the Sphinx is over 10000years old. Robert Buval says the image of the pyramids on the ground match the pattern of Orion's belt at that time. Also Edgar Cayce commented that the pyramids were much older than we think they are.
The blocks might have been a sort of cement enclosed in a wooden frame.
That way there'd be no need to haul huge blocks uphill.
If you wanted something to survive for thousands of years this is exactly what you'd build.
lol @ 0:51 pls tell me how they get that giant rock on a small boat :'')
@k0smon What makes you say that?
@shreddmonkey im sooo agree with you!!
@k0smon I believe they are older than what we think they are, but 12,500 was such a specific amount I had to ask.
Ah, I love speculation and assumption because that is all we have on the Ancient Pyramids. With the discovery of 17 new pyramids in Egyp and the possibilities of excavating them, I hope we can learn more about our ancient ancestors. They clearly had some sort of knowledge we were unaware of, be it a higher form of enlightenment and connectivity with nature or other worldly beings, they were clearly living in a golden age. Shame we don't pour more resources into learning our ancient history. :D
@T15Medic Yeah, don't know if you using sarcasm but yes that was some sort of a device
Yet, they placed everything so perfectly.The mathematical precision is just amazement of itself.Not a single razor blade goes between the rocks.Even modern buildings arent that accurate.I want to see, how someone makes an intel proccessor with theyr simple tools next ;)
Even with our modern technology it's impossible to build a pyramid of that size.
And the fact that there was a pyramid built on a small ( very steep ) mountain completly BREAKS this theory.
@steveman03 I know right! That block is like 10 tons! D:
Have you heard people say that they made a gaint ramp to get the stones up in the air to build the pyramids well that would take a long time just to keep building the ramp to the right level.
i think that once they built 1 layer they formed and shaped the rocks for the 2 layer on the first layer doing this would have no need for a ramp!
That they keep building the layers on top of one another
Ah, I love speculation and assumption because that is all we have on the Ancient Pyramids.

Maybe there was two big cube rocks that were carved down into the pyramids
How did they cut the granite blocks? People today are STILL figuring out how to cut those type of blocks that created the pyramids. It takes DIAMOND to cut those. How did these Egyptians have the materials to cut these blocks without the modern technology that we have.
It seems to me that the Egyptians love to paint life down on these structures. Has anyone viewed anything that looks like the Egyptians building a pyramid or any other structure painted or sculpted on the walls? It would seem to me that an achievement of this magnitude would be painted on every edifice they ever accomplished. If there are none to be found then these buildings must have been there before their time. If anyone knows of wall paintings or sculpting feel free to link it to my page.
@dav5tar09 Yes, they did drag it up sharp turns.
Do you realize how high a crane would have to be, to lift the top block high enough? Too high. It wouldn't be stable. They built ramps, they dragged and pushed at the same time using the same rolling log method the people of Easter island used to move the heads.
CONT...The word "Ignorant" is an adjective describing a person in the state of being unaware. The term may be used specifically (e.g. "One can be an expert in math, and totally ignorant of history.") or generally (e.g. "an ignorant person.").
Ramps.
There are about 2.3 MILLION blocks in the Great Pyramid
Which would be equal to around 315 blocks a day
And that would be assuming that people worked non-stop, with no breaks whatsoever, for exactly 20 years
Each stone weighs about 2.5 tons
The pyramid is almost 491 feet tall
So the level of difficulty by carrying them uphil would be MUCH greater right after the first level. And yet they would have to place the same amount of stones each day?
100...200,300,400 feet... same pace?
All these years and they still don't know how the pyramids were built.They use words like "might" and "could".
Egyptian communication was done using electricity wirelessly not foot messengers.
@njfaq2 of coures it would benifit us. the pyramids and the temple of the sphinx have blocks weighing 200 tons. the idea that they were put in place by simple pullies and ramps seems amazing. if it is true then knowing exactly how it was done is one of the most interesting and educational episoides in all history. if it was done with some sort of lost ancient technology, or even aliens, then we definiatly need to know. this is the history of mankind we are talking about, not some trivial matter.
I found the comments more interesting than the video itself haha.
im waiting for them to figure out how it was made and its the most simplest of things >_>
@arira1995 me too.......
The simple way in the build process is to gather all material first and place it on the location. Then they start to build. Why must everyone try to make it harder then it is?
@SGDeGalvez yes we can....using fossils and radiometric dating techniques
Or not necessarily cubes but a huge piece of rock
yea i completly agree but u have to wonder how they did buil them cause they are there and how come the pictures that tell storys in they dont have any about how they built them
I dont think we would ever know how they truly did it!...
Actually, the math works out to 1 stone every nine seconds in a 20 year period. That is impossible considering the size of the stones. Look up the full series on youtube "ancient aliens" by the history channel. There are nine parts and it gives a different look to these ancient mysteries.
i read that it was built before 40.000 years by giant people , also they discovered huge bones and sculls beside the pyramids , the ancient illustrations in pyramids shows giants obviously .
How were the pyramids built?
-telekenesis?
-eating spinach?
-chuck norris?
-they fed the egyptians cans of red bull
What do you thinK?
I used to try to explain how the pyramids were built, then i took a pharaoh to the knee
Rockbender
Something to try out in minecraft
discovery channel says 80 years...big difference
I bet the Library of Alexandria could have tod us who and how the pyramids were built.
Do a search on geopolymeric concrete and you'll get simple answer how the pyramids where built. No need fo huge logistics, super-civilisations or UFO's. There is a (loose) quote from movie The Man from Earth: "stone age people were as smart as we are, they just didn't knew as much". Well maybe these guys did.
The thing is 12,500 years old.
Ignorance is the state in which a person lacks knowledge, is unaware of something or chooses to subjectively ignore information. This should not be confused with being unintelligent, as one's level of intelligence and level of education or general awareness are not the same.
they simply poured single blocks on location
Some scientists went to the pyramids and took samples. They said that the Stones on the bottom were younger than the top. How is that? It is also said that these Gods came to them from the Sky. What are they talking about. And all around the world pyramids were found. In Turkey, Mexico, Peru and underwater. But why would they suddenly built these things and all of them. Also there is a monument in Egyt and Mexico that Line up with stars perfectly. How if they havent discoverd America yet?
@njfaq2 I would have to disagree with "if found would never benifit us anyways". Perhaps the answers would give us all what we seem to be looking for...the truth. Not just who and why thet were built but you have to think outside the box a little. We can't find 10 people who get along to work at a McDonalds and they had thousands that all worked as a unit? If they found steel or machines that could do this job(Sears Tower or Pyramids) there would be no mystery.
Why did the Egyptians, Mayans and others build costly pyramids?
There is a consistency between the Mayans and the Egyptian pyramids and why is that? Did the Mayans and the Egyptians knew about Planet X, Nibiru or the destroyers as many calls it. Did the most powerful men of old times tried to save themselves from catastrophic events consequences of Nibiru by building gigantic pyramids? If you see closely to the peak of the Egypt pyramid you can see like if there is water damage.

@Fatwaz1 It's hidden under the sphinx
I'm not trying to say it took the 600 years to build it. I just think that people 4000 years a go was simple with copper tools. Can u imagine how hard it would be to cut and shape all those stones with ''copper tools'' i think the work they did in the quarry was way more impressive than the pyramid it self. O and the ''giant ramp theory'' is 100% speculation there is absolutely no evidence to back that up just like the ''alien theory''
Chuck Norris commanded aliens to build them.
The pyramids made when Chuck Norris decided to blink
What do you mean pyramids were built with sound??
you're smart :)
People carried the rocks up. They would put the rocks up onto 4 pillars a few feet high using a ramp. Then 40 or people would get underneath the rock and walk it up the pyramid. No aliens.
@Fatwaz1 The great pyramid is 12500 years old. No wonder they don't know how it was done.
I don't care what anyone says.. no amount of rope is strong enough to hold a stone wieghting that much...
It was NOT aliens, it was Egyptian GIANTS with BIG brains...please check other vids about the mystery of the pyramids of Egypt...
Lol. I love confusing people with complex sentences which aren't even mine.
whos studying for finals with this video
No way they could have built that in just 22 years,also how comes the Egyptians are utterly clueless themselves about how it was made?
I'm not saying extraterrestrial's built it,just strange how all that information is lost on something so impressive!!!
Hmm, this video should be named: What egyptians DID NOT HAVE.
which is it ?
A.)an advance alien race with superior technology traveled all the way across the galaxy, just to pile up large rocks for the primitive natives.
or....
B.) an architectural genius was born at the right time,at the right place , and led his people to construct a tome for his king.
Aliens Nuff said. All of it. Pyramids, The Sphinx, StoneHedge all of it!" Aliens lol
Aliens have had to build this because look how big those blocks are those are about 2 thousand pounds each
@TheWhiteKnight89= I'm actually willing to believe you. I also believe aliens helped build thos giant heads on Easter Island. And the Nazca lines in Peru.
Nobody else asked your opinion either, but you still go ahead and give it anyway.
@realityexplorations
I think the only closed mind is yours if you think there is anything mysterious about where the stone for the pyramids was sourced from and how it was moved down stream. Ever seen a supertanker float? Pretty heavy! Have enough surface area to spread the load across....no problem. And the Egyptians knew how to build barges, big ones. There is no mystery here. The stone has been proven to come from quarries upstream, the Egyptians had the boat building technology at the time
@qazzzie just because extra terrestrials exist doesn't mean that they built the pyramids. a bit of logical error on your part.
@Universound57 They did just 'randomly' build the pyramids. They were built as a tombs for their Pharaohs, which is a HUGE deal. Their own tombs were near the pyramids, but much smaller. They found the first one only 1990. Most of the tombs of Pharaohs were indeed raided, hence the lack of 'mummies' and treasures in them. Yeah, we can't do it today. Now, we're dumbshits and rely on computers to our work.
And they didn't measure in the American nor international units.
i love how most people in the comment section laugh at the idea of a god, but entertain aliens, with no proof.
@Universound57 A conspiracy theory book? No thanks. For all we could know, their measuring system could very well calculate the placing of the stones. Why, there's a man in France who is replicating medieval building techniques by building a castle. He made a 6 perfect shapes w/ a stick and a piece of rope.
It doesn't really matter how you argue, because they've already replicated the building of pyramids with ancient Egyptian techniques and equipment, and succeeded.
There is no way that people made the pyramids. from seen from space the pyramids are only 1/4 an inch of from being geometrically perfect. We couldn't recreate how we think they built the pyramids and made them that perfect, there is no way. Either we had some help from an outside being or we had way more advanced technology that has been lost.
25 000 workers set up over 2 million blocks in 20 years? lmao,
Thats 273 stones per day,
11 stones per fucking hour,
u know at 1:15 looks like a UFO and underneath 3 stars like the belt of orion. it maks sense now. the aliens from a plant in the orion constelation came to earth and built pyramids then scooted along home.
Foram os Et`s que construiram as piramides!
@TheWhiteKnight89 Oh, well it must be true, he said SERIOUSLY!! lol
Yeah you too, wouldn't want to know anyone so uptight anyway, toodles.
Yeah, that boat would immediately sink beneath the water. Unless... chuck norris is beneath, supporting it.
lol there is no proof Egyptians used "big ramps". Just a speculation.
The so called "Khufu's" pyramid was in fact a pyramid of god Osiris(Ashur; Ashur was also god in Sumeria/Assir). (watch my video), Sphynx (Hor em Akhet) represents his son - Hor(king Menes) who killed Seteh after invasion from Kush.
I do not know if Osiris was an alien, but for sure, he was giant king...like his son.
I think humans made them - but there was a whole lot more humans than estimated.
If one human can drag 50kg of stone on planks with ease, 1000 humans can drag 50 000 kg blocks of stone on planks with ease.
As of lifting them? I believe with enough people, you can lift them with rope and planks.
Over with what? What did I lie about?
Funny how the pyramids were built for the Pharaoh's, but no archaeologists have ever found the tombs of the Pharaoh's in any pyramid.
Watch the Ancient Aliens : Evidence episode!!!!!!
Two words ANCIENT ALIENS
"Experts" are baffled therefore they make up an explanation. The accepted explanation is impossible.
The trouble is most people in the 'west' have never done any construction work / hard labour whatsoever. Most people have never even dug a hole in the ground let alone moved stones by hand.
So when they see a computer animation of a rock the size of a motor home being rowed down the Nile or pulled along on a sled they think it's possible..... it ain't.
Let's see REAL FOOTAGE of a SINGLE BLOCK being chiselled with copper tools and brought to Giza by boat/ sled and carried up 400ft by hand. LOL
Ancient aliens muthafackaaaa
What are you even talking about at this point? Ramblings of a madman...
You know what I mean... do you believe in equality and equal opportunity? When you see a black person on the streets do you think negative things about them because of their skin colour even though they could and most likely are a genuinely nice person?
How were the pyramid build? Easy..... Wingarduim leviosa!
but we cant admit that there was human history predates adam and eve
@Goregrinding ahh, there's a more likely theory. also, slave labor in ancient egypt wasn't like slave labor in the modern sense. slaves were more like peasants under hire of the government who were given the very basics to survive and work.
@njfaq2 not true , egypt shows first sings of civilisation, their knowledge of stars is beyond even modern technology. If anything we can learn more from the egyptian civilisation than any other pre-existing culture. So in many respects you are wrong, you have to look at the bigger picture. Search Nibiru (12th Planet and learn a little more before making such rash statements.
