About the book:
When construction project manager Chris Massey set off on a surprise trip to Egypt it seemed he was in for a relaxing time - a cruise down the Nile, a hot air balloon ride over the Valley of the Kings, sunbathing by the Red Sea and guided tours of the most spectacular ancient structures in the world...
But wherever he looked, he saw problems with the perceived wisdom on how the pyramids, temples and tombs of the pharaohs were built:
If limestone blocks were dragged up a mud brick ramp to be placed at the top of the Great Pyramid, where is the evidence of this huge ramp? How could materials such as wooden rollers and mud bricks take the strain put on them by tons of stone? Thousands of men are supposed to have dragged the building blocks across the desert in the searing heat - how did the ancient project managers keep morale up amongst the dusty and tired workforce?
Surely there must have been an easier way? Massey looked around him and saw the greatest resource available to the Egyptians - the waters of the mighty Nile.
This engaging account is the result of Massey's pool-side ponderings, in which he gives a detailed alternative theory of how the ancient Egyptians could have used water to their advantage to make pyramid building much easier.

I’m one step closer to figuring out how the Pyramid was built because I just eliminated this technique.
Water filled shafts, yeah, OK.
Lol

@@SavedbyHim What do you mean with "still cant move today" ?
Its just concrete made with concrete forms. Mystery solved. Whoops they said those were stones.... ahhh a lie.
This is almost as good as my theory that they trained thousands of birds to fly in unison while being tethered to the stones.

Very funny! Just like the movie The Croods!

@@mixer6166 that’s a topic of great debate in the avian Masonic community. Some days .0000003 miles per day and others think that it’s .0000007
😀😀😀😀😀
There are a few issues with this:
1- How would you make the ramp to the top water tight with the technology of the time for that massive pressure that comes with the height?
2- The blocks do not sink gracefully. They either float or they sink to the bottom. It's pretty hard to control the speed of the sinking without precise control of the volume of the air in the floats.
This is similar to the ramp theory... where it's not technically impossible, but its just so much work that the very theory requires feats as impressive as the pyramid itself. As a pool guy, I can tell you that sealing all that water sure looks easy but wouldn't be at all.... we're talking insane pressures and leak issues.
It's just so needlessly complicated
pressures and the author of this vid
Paul Hai ~ Raising Stone
Humans did not build anything with big stone blocks thousands of yeard ago !
The ramp "theory" is no longer a theory.. they have FOUND THE RAMP. 😀
The problem is that the density of granite is 2.75 g/cm^3. Density of fresh water is 1. This means that the volume of the floats would have to be 2.75 times the volume of each block, in order to float. Also the pressure of a 454 foot water column equals 200 psi. The lock at the bottom could never be opened due to the enormous pressure on it.
Yeah...that's what I thought.
@@nickg505 bro thats what i been telling people all day
Can you dumb it down a little bit for the rest of us
@@stevemill8959 I think all the rocks in the water would make too much water pressure to be able to open the doors?!?
So now we know what happened to all of those big ass dinosaurs...them some BIG skins...:/
This whole system is more difficult to build than the pyramid itself
Yup this would of been more work lol
Excellent one-liner.👏👏👏
Yes your right about that......how would they keep it waterproof.........where would they get all that water from........1 single river ?.....so every pyramid had his own water transportsystem ??? looks like a walt Disney story
You are right lol
Сам то что можешь предложить?
The blocks on the outside of the pyramid measure approximately 1.2x1.2x1.5m, that is, its volume is 2.2m3. Knowing that limestone has a density of 2700Kg/m3, these blocks weigh around 6000Kg. Using Archimedes' principle, to float 6000Kg, it is required to displace at least 6000 liters of water. It actually requires a larger volume for it to float. Suppose 10,000 liters, that is, 10m3 have to have the floats of each of the thousands of blocks. If we compare this volume with the 2.2m3 of each block, then the floats should be at least 4.5 times larger than the stone itself. In the animation this is not to scale. Doing so would make it clear that building the floats would be as complex as carving blocks with copper tools.
While this is a well depicted theory, I find a major issue with keeping that almost vertical column of water sealed in that shaft. Just the weight of the water alone would create leaks and be especially problematic during the movement of heavy blocks. In addition, wouldn't the upper parts of the floatation means rub off on the ceiling of the shaft as the blocks move up the shaft?
As an industrial designer, I would first build a scale model that simulates this theory in order to work out potential problems.
Yeah there are way too many flaws here. Sounds good. It just would never hold.
The real champion is the voice actor who managed to read this in a serious voice.

lmao fr
Sounds like he’s reading it inside a well. Or a piece pvc
Yes , hardly could resist myself from laughing
Where exactly is the information in the video incorrect?
Insane! Many other commenters have already pointed out the naive disregard of basic physics, but my favorite is the lunacy of vertical water shafts with flat sides!
Square tunnels don't work well?
Where are those tunnels
The sliding rocks in death valley were being moved hundreds of yards by centimeters of water and ice. Yes this theory is out there, but in my opinion its more believable than "they threw human death and suffering at them until they were done." That being said, the question in my mind shifted from "How did they move thousands of tons of stone?" to "How would they pump millions of gallons of water?"
@@elastiq1704 Nobody who payed any attention in school thinks that archeologists believe it was built by slaves or that it was in any way a rough or grueling job. We have accounts thousands of years ago describing it as a highly trained workforce of approximately 20,000 men. Plus all information of the culture suggests the builders were extremely skilled and highly revered for doing this extremely important job. Ain't nobody saying they threw bodies at it till it was done. I'm really tired of hearing this nonsense strawman from people, it's blatantly false and only takes like half a second to look up and verify that it's wrong.
@@tyr7876 Hmm it's almost like science and what we "think" we know changes all the time. "We have accounts thousands of years ago describing it as a highly trained workforce of approximately 20,000 men" -this is false. you are referring to the 1990 discovery in Cairo (note it was 1990) they discovered workers graves with evidence that they were paid workers, but not highly trained or skilled by any means. Before this we had a 5th century story of 100,000 slaves in egypt, so basically anyone in their 40's or older most definitely was taught about slaves and probably even most people in 30's especially in the bible belt. so did you pay any attention in school? or just like being a butt on the internet.
I beleive that what makes this water system workable is the discovery of the rampump that can lift water uphill as long as there is flowing water to power the rampump and that's the river Nile.
The part that sold me was the blocks can be easily guided even in tight spaces as they lazily float along all the water channels. It’s a shame they tore this system down because it would quite possibly been a bigger wonder than the pyramid.
I'm an engineer with almost 35 years experience and the floating of the blocks up the side of the pyramid is not possible with stone and mud 'cement' tubes. Let alone the containment of the water on the top of the pyramid. These materials would fail under the compression forces.
I’m not an engineer and I would have to agree this whole thing is laughable. Just imagine trying to float a 5 ton block with some animal bladders as well. I’m sorry i know I’m being negative but it is just not even remotely possible. Beautiful animations though.
Trust me, you don't need 35 years experience to know this theory would not work 😂🤦🏻♂️

He is hoping to recoup by selling something.
50 years ago Ron wyatt showed where the plan for the machine they used is chiseled ontona stele in Egypt. Then he built the machine and raised a car of equal weight to one of the blocks. Its right on you tube for anyone to see.
*Theory of Building Pyramids*:-
The stones from which the pyramids were built are not natural stones, but rather manufactured stones with the same idea as the manufacture of bricks or blocks, and these stones were not moved or carried to their high positions (which increase in height with increasing height in building). Rather, each stone was manufactured in its location (It is the same as its current location) and it was never moved or carried from its place. These stones are characterized by precision in their manufacture, and the connected stones are relatively similar. Each stone is also characterized by an increase in the width and length of its base (compared to its height), but they gradually decrease the higher its position in the building, and while below we will review a vision of how to build of external frame for pyramid, regardless of the internal divisions (which could be done using traditional methods of construction in conjunction with the construction of the external structure of the pyramid).
*The idea of building the external structure of the pyramid*:-
The external structure of the pyramid consists of several levels (or rows), starting with the base and ending with the top. Each level consists of stacked stones in the form of a square with regular dimensions and high precision (right angles and equal sides). The dimensions of the square decrease at the top level, and this shows how the staircase shape of the pyramid appears. The stones on each level are almost identical, and the dimensions of the base of each stone are several times its height. These dimensions decrease at the upper level and continue to decrease gradually until the top. Three-quarters of the base of each stone on the upper level is above the stones of the lower level, while a quarter of the base of each stone remains suspended in the air. Each stone is manufactured on site using wooden molds made up of several facades (from five to three facades depending on the location of the stone and the number of adjacent stones), and each facade consists of several flat, strong, tightly packed wooden planks. These molds are used in the same way as making blocks or bricks. The ancient Egyptians came up with a specific chemical formula that was mixed with desert sand, and perhaps a certain liquid was added to it (perhaps water). This resulted in a mixture similar to the cement mixture we have today, where workers carry it using special containers and pour it into wooden molds (with the same idea as concrete pouring). This mixture dries quickly, so the wooden molds are removed to begin making the adjacent stone until the current level is completed and then move to the next level, and so on. After these stones dry, they become very hard, just like rocks.
*Scientific evidence of the validity of the theory*:-
1- There is no doubt that the ancient Egyptians had some secrets of chemistry that we do not know yet, such as the secret of the materials used in mummification, which is still a mystery that baffles scientists. Likewise, they discovered a chemical formula for making the mixture used in making stones for construction, but they did not convey to us the nature of those compositions that It has become one of their mysterious secrets. It is not logical to believe that there is a secret in a specific dye used in mummification, but not believe that there is a secret in a specific mixture used in construction.
2- The color of the pyramid stones is completely similar to the color of the desert sand surrounding the pyramids, which confirms that the pyramid stones were made from that desert sand, noting that the color of the rocks tends to be dark in all the mountains surrounding that desert, which are very far from the site of the pyramids.
3- The absence of any rocky mountains in the areas near the pyramids, thus ruling out bringing real rocks from the mountains to build the pyramids, noting the large size of those rocks used in building the pyramids, thus ruling out the idea of carrying and transporting those rocks using traditional tools.

Even if he's probably wrong, it dont mean there wont have an interest on exploring the theory. I mean the alien BS theory sold a lot of books... Even if its the LEAST plausible one.
This is literally the second stupidest theory right after aliens.
Alien story is much better than this crap
At least the alien crap is entertaining to think about. IT was aliens though.
This makes zero sense
"Most pyramids around the world were built at a certain time period. Why did they stop building them (at a similar time period) from China, South America, middle east?
@@Grim_Azrael Explain why it makes zero sense? Seems to be a sensible solution. There's evidence recently of ramps having been built, although they aren't sure in what fashion they would have really been constructed. What if the ramps were actually channels for water similar to the theory here?
Nice! But how did they pump the water from the Niel and into the system and up on to the pyramid?
The Aliens did that part of course
Excellent quality video! Very well made! Outstanding content and graphics!
I have no problem with this theory in concept... I'm just confused at how they got that much water up that high. And how they would have kept it full in spite of all the leaks/intentional drains.
The use some type of buckets or drums to fill it back when the closed the gates so each time they drain the top the fill it back man power on common sense
They time traveled, they needed the water pumps and power generators man, common sense
Yeah they’re trying to sell this idea to people but not explaining the main functions of how this concept works. Meaning they can’t even bullshit an answer lol
As well as under pressure to get it up the pyramid. The other issue is that it has to be waterproof to keep the water in.
This theory is not applicable
We must work on this that how they built it
This really makes a lot sense, especially if you dont think about it. At all. I really love how the author disregarded physics to make his theory make sense, to him.
my buddy that believes this bs wont listen to me about the physics that doesn't exist here or the tec that is lacking
@@soffwhere - The tower that raises the blocks to the top would need to be 450 feet high eventually. That's about 195 psi of water pressure at the bottom. You're not sealing that with mud. It would take a steel tube. That's one thing.
@@hamletksquid2702 they had a form of concrete, can hold thousands of PSI
@@soffwhere - Concrete can take thousands of pounds in compression, but only a few hundred psi in tension, which is what you get when you pressurize a vessel. You're talking about a continuously slip-formed tube that would exceed all sane safety limits with modern concrete, and doing it without steel rebar. Seems doubtful. It would have been simpler to just build stairways up the sides and have peasants haul baskets of wet concrete up, and cast the whole thing like the Hoover Dam. The Egyptians didn't build their buildings and monuments out of concrete, so I can't see them reserving their most advanced building technology for temporary construction structures.
@@soffwhere - I'm not the one claiming to know "How were the pyramids really built?" This guy doesn't study pyramids for a living, or any sort of engineering. If he's going to claim knowledge superior to thousands of people who do study pyramids for a career on the basis of a daydream, it's up to him to provide some evidence of the practicability of his proposed methods. What he's proposing is ridiculous on its face. It's not up to the rest of the world to prove him wrong.
Even if building this tower were possible, it wouldn't work. Inflated skins would shrink under the pressure at the bottom of the tower, so you'd need to start out with a stack of airbags about 33 times as high as the block. A three foot thick block would need a stack of airbags that's originally a hundred feet high to lift it under the kind of water pressure. This is literally stuff that's taught in the first year of any engineering program.
First question that comes to mind is is there any proof of material used to seal the water from leaking from the top of the pyramid. The water ways on top has to be sealed to allow the pool to retain it.
Ingenious idea though.
How did they get all the water to the top? What was the pressure at the bottom of the water column and how did they contain it?
At least we can rule out one thing.
It wasnt built like this.
Lol
interesting idea though
It's possible but very difficult
there have been ruins found along the sides of pyramids that support this idea, along with the debris of floodgates funnels and bedrock. Also this version relies on no physical effort on moving the blocks, and only relies on the force of buoyancy which has been proved to work unlike the theory that has been stretched out by western media for nearly a hundred years, of people pulling them. Also this version of the construction of pyramids isn't harder and was actually easier, which explains why the typical time of a pyramid to be constructed was around 20-30 years. With a dedicated workforce of will-fulling citizens and builders not slaves. Why would a god king order slaves to build his/her divine catacomb? This version of my argument is pointed towards rueben vega. Also the tools and reedbed boats required for this technique have also been found around constructed sites usually buried under the pyramids themselves as well as beside them under ruined floodgates, watercocks and buildings.
@@ryennfilms6429 it would be easier to make a time machine and go see how it was actually built : P
Each large block weighs some 90 ton, that means the volume of the float would have to be well in excess of 90 m3 more like 120 m3. This means the foat would be larger than the stone its fastened to.
This is the best counterpoint I've read so far. Everyone talking about how complicated the construction of the aquafers would have been are not thinking about all the complex aqua ducts that the Romans built. That wouldn't have been the issue. However, the physics of keeping the blocks afloat certainly would have been a major point of contention.
You mean three layers of pig stomachs can’t lift a car?
@Dissident Aggressor Actually I think the Egyptians would have just pulled a vacuum on the pig stomachs which hardened in the sun. That would’ve given the best buoyant force.
@@maxxxmodelz4061 Dude.. aqueducts used water that flowed down.. these things require water to flow up or stay stationary at an angle.. what...
@@maxxxmodelz4061 the Egyptian piramides were ancient to Romans like Romans aquaducts to us...
How did they retain the water in those chambers does raising the Limestone and how did they film up in the first place. With buckets
Water flows downhiil mate ! Any idea how much energy it would take to move that much water to the top of the site and keep it there? Water is heavy mate and it doesn't stay i one place like a rock does.
Diver here, those floats would have to be about 4000 cubic feet ( 1 ton of lift = 40 cubic feet of displacement ) . Also floats don't really work in a silo like that because they hit the top first while the load is still the float height from the surface. Therefore Smurfs did it.
..allways those freakin Smurfs eh?
Whoever can do the levitation required … it’s placing each stone precisely that gets me … it’s a nice theory. Flotation would be needed to encapsulate each stone rather than just suspend from above.
It's even more difficult to imagine how they could made that kind of canals and maintain stability and sealing of everything. This is a cool fantasy theory for a Dune movie or so...
Not really... I mean when Spain conquered the Aztecs, the Aztecs had running water, shit the king even had tubs in South America. Canals, self watering crop fields, used huge ponds to study astronomy. What's hard to belive about this theory is how precise each stone is placed. I would imagine water would impede that.
@@salbtheghost7161 dude Aztects were founded in 1428,Pyramids of Giza were built 5000 years ago,can you get a hold od that thought?

@@anatos1722 that's cause they don't get credit enough....the aztec sun and moon pyramid was bigger than Egypts.. also they invented the # 0. So go ponder on that as well.
@@salbtheghost7161 i mean i aint that fascinated cause they did it 5000 years after u know?
@@salbtheghost7161 Running water is different that pushing water uphill. Also there is the pressure at the bottom would be the same as the bottom of a big dam. To seal that modern engineers need to make the walls 10s or 100s of meters thick. Im unaware of any ancient civilization having pumps.
I like this theory to explain how they moved the stones from the quarries to the building sites.
They had knowledge of the flood and they knew how to take benefit of it.
But I'm more on the side on Jean-Pierre Houdin when it comes to moving the stones from the port to the building site
and then to the different layers of the pyramid.
The thing I don't understand in that video is how did they feed water into these water columns ?
If the pyramid was taller than anything else around, how do you use the communicating vessel principle to feed these columns with water up to the high level of the pyramid?
Unless you've got a damn good pump system that can push the water up to these high level.
But if they had such a system that could push up the humongous weight of water columns,
they would have used it to lift the stones up with ropes.
The blocks could never gently glide up the initial water filled shafts near the lower harbor. The inflated skins and their ropes would bump and scrape along ceiling of this shaft all the way up. Same with the upper water shaft. Also, men with paddles could not gently guide these blocks along. These things weigh thousands of pounds and have real inertia. This uppermost water containment area on the pyramid would need to not only be water tight on its sides and bottom, it would also need to have another built above it for the next layer, and the next one again and again with each one made watertight. Also, the water is drained away to let down the blocks??? How do they get more water up there to refill it for the next load??? I will say this- the video is fun to watch. There ought to be a hundred other ones like it by other people!
My favorite part was where he told you to not only buy his book but to believe his theory

Interesting concept. How did they get the water up to the top level???

I can't imagine the amount of pressure that would exist at the base of that shaft on the side of the pyramid. I'm no hydraulic engineer, but once that shaft was more than say 50 feet tall, the pressure at the bottom of the shaft would be enormous. The walls of the shaft would need to be ridiculously thick. You couldn't have a simple wooden gate that you pull up and then push down to close. Once you pulled that gate up the pressure behind it would shoot it out of the shaft with considerable force. Without hydraulics there would be no way to close it again. Also, can imagine the time and power required to pump several million gallons of water up to the top level under construction. That would be a challenging feet today.
You are 100% correct. There are so many things wrong with this idea I don't know where to begin. And I've been a civil engineer since 1972.
Actually at 50' the pressure at the base of the column would be about 20 psi. About .43 psi per foot of static head is height of the column. The volume of water in the column does not affect the pressure. For example a one inch wide column and 100 foot wide column both at 50 ft high would have the same amount of pressure at the base. Water Distribution 101
@@nathanb2319sounds like you know what your talking about but wouldn't the 100 foot wide column at 50 ft be holding more water and there for more weight increasing the pressure?
@@Kwikasfuk636 I know it sounds weird but no the weight of the water is not affecting the pressure inside the column. It is the atmospheric pressure outside of the column causing the pressure inside the column. I ......43 psi per foot if I remember right. But you are correct in considering the weight of the water. 8.34 lbs per gallon. Even though the pressure is not extremely high water is still quite heavy and the structure being built must be strong enough to support all that weight. I think you may be confusing weight of water and water pressure .hope that helps. You can look up Newtonian gravity may help
Nate B I just learnt something then, I was thinking that the weight of water was what created the pressure, I was a fire fighter once, they told us, if you join 4 long fire hoses together and hang them over the side of a building, tie a knot at the bottom and fill it with water it will burst the bottom hose. This isn't because of pressure it's because the hose was not strong enough to support the Weight of the water? But if a submarine goes to deep it gets crushed.
The structure needed for the water ways is a far greater accomplishment than the pyramids. How did they place those blocks?
Lol right? This theory is cool, but it ain’t it
Can you imagine the pressure the water has on the bottom gate of the ramp,lol silly rabbit
if they set them in place with floats how did they get the rope from between the blocks when they are cut loose?
most plausible one is that the Egyptians employed a sloping and encircling embankment of brick, earth, and sand, which was increased in height and length as the pyramid rose; stone blocks were hauled up the ramp by means of sledges, rollers, and levers.

A scientific thoery developed by an artist. You fail all the basic physics. floats would have to be several times bigger than the blocks, and you can't just float something into a massive tower of water. How did they pump the water up that high and how would they have made movable hydraulic gates that were strong enought and watertight enough to hold incredible pressures?
Exactly !!
+NatureHacker Besides your point, each time you would open the bottom gate you would lose a volume of water that is equivalent to 10 times the volume of the stone blocks that you got through the gate... It means that just to maintain that system working you would need to pump a volume of water 10 times that of the pyramid... And let's not talk about the volume of water that you'd also lose by evaporation due to the extreme desert heat... so basically this theory is just making the problem of moving the stone blocks much worse !
right, with 100% max efficiency they would have had to replace the weight of water displaced by each block. So if a block weighs 10 tons, they would have had to pump 10 tons of water up before hand and that 10 tons would have to be repumped up. I don't think this artist realizes that nothing is for free. You could use a pulley system with 100% efficiency much easier by hauling gravel up and using it as a counterweight to lift the blocks up. Gravel being much easier to work with then water.
+NatureHacker Ofcourse the aliens helps them!
You have just completely smashed this theory. Its just not possible that this would work.
Also, any leftover structures for water channels?
WHAT YOU'RE ALL MISSING: It was not blocks. It was a limestone sludge against wooden forms. The sludge could easily be pumped continuously a little at a time and one "sludge block" would fit perfectly against other limestone blocks!

Physically impossible... Remember these stones are between 15 - 50 tons! The water pressure alone would blow those gates.
Dont think any of the shit he talkes about were ever found
Dave Sisler In Europe they easily float narrow ships across highways etc in overhead aqueducts. The pressure does not rise despite the heavy loads as they displace an equal mass of water. There is an excellent vid on RUclips explaining the physics of this. By problem with this theory is that no mention of pumps were made and lochs require pumping water if you’re going up hill. Only pumps can get massive amounts of water to the top of the building area. The higher you have to pump water the more difficult and the more energy required. That’s why modern pumps always have a “head” rating or the distance in altitude to which they can effectively pump.
Dave they had not only 15 to 20 tonnes however the weight of the each stone were around thousands of tonne and the scientists are very amazed to think about that how they were lifted those heavy blocks to build the pyramids? Moreover, there is no concrete concept of pyramid construction in the history of science.
There's a stone in the pyramid, 80 tons.
@@steviebee1989 yes, the water pressure at the bottom of those float tubes up the sides would have blown out anything they could have made much less the bottom gates of wood.
How did they fill the upper pools and tunnels. Also the ropes on top would get shredded rubbing against the top of the tunnels as they float up.
Wodjer MEAN "Cattloxen" one OR t'other? Is there a type of Ox (singular) we aren't aware of, Like goatoxen? 🤔 ?
The whole theory lacks of fundamental physical knowledge.
Stone has got a desity if approx. 2.3 kg/Liter, which means that the floating device has to contain more than 1.3 times the volume of air than the volume of the block.
Next flaw: The ramp channels simply would explode due to the water pressure. Stone cannot bear tension so it can't bear inside pressure. At a 50 m pyramid the pressure would be 500 kPa, which requires thick walled welded steel pipes to contain that pressure.
How should they build a pressure tight gate which can resist more than 500 kPa (50 tons per square meter)?
Next flaw: The floating devices would get crushed on contact with any ceiling.
Moreover, the floating device looses boyancy under pressure: 10 m below surface the floating device needs 4.6 times the size of the block, at 50 m it needs 8 times the size of the block to maintain positive boyancy - which would result in uncontrollable speed when reaching the surface.
Next flaw: How should they pump thousands of tons of water up the pyramid constantly (they have to replace leakages, too)?
Next flaw: How to seal the top pyramid bassins watertight?
And so on.
This is the worst theory after "Aliens built it".

@@ronrichardson3103 The water theory is complete crap. Building that water system and operating it, takes much more technology and efforts than building a whole pyramid using most of the other suggested technologies.

Which would make this hysterical theory that much more believable

I think this concept explains the mystery on where the water damage came from that was reported. Thanks for sharing
OK, I get the idea in theory, BUT, I must ask, who or what is pumping all that water to levels needed to accomplish this? 1 metric ton of water is a lot BUT you cannot float 2.7 Metric tons of stone in 1 Metric ton of water...? And, to lift the column of water to the needed height only increases with the height of the structure, so...? Just asking.
I'm most interested in the lock gates and how you could open and close the bottom gate when there is 214 PSI on the pyramid side and how you equalize that pressure. Usually locks work by raising the water level on both sides to the same and then opening. You would have to go 1300 miles upstream to get the water to be equal to the height of the pyramid. At that point the technology would be more impressive than the accomplishment.
Smarty pants
A lock gate wouldn't be needed. Just use a chain pump, a device known to be used in Egypt at least as early as 200 B.C. according to recorded history. I know of no reason to believe they could not have used it earlier.
This chain pump would be inside that flue or pipe leading up the sidewall pumping water at the same time as providing the channel for those bricks to float up.
@@josephnebeker7976 So a chain with wooden plates big enough to take large stone blocks up a stone pipe that would rise up to 400 feet. How much water is being lifted and how would you power that system. If they had a method to drive such a system it would have simpler to build an elevator for the blocks and use that
@@mickjcarey even if moaking a non hydraulic elevator to lift the rocks would be easier, that doesn't mean they didn't use the other system.
Right now I don't know how they did it, I simply made a mention about the lack of need for a lock system.
@@mickjcarey I'm guessing the easiest way to do this would be to use a crane. It would have to be a huge crane, and that would be very difficult to build.
And without using steel or strong alloys, would a wooden crane be viable at such a size?
The truth is, we don't know how they did it, and we don't know what technologies they had access to beyond rope and copper chisels and pounding stones.
Ahh...so this is how my thesis sounds like to my professor...

Obtaining a first edition of this book will be impossible, as every copy will have been pulped and recycled due to no copies actually being purchased.
how would you even get that amount of water to the top. I would think that every shipment would get rid of insane amounts of water, and getting the water up seems like almost as big of a problem as getting the stones up. I haven't thought this through, but I would guess that you would loose more weight in water than the transported stone, so you would eventually need to get more weight to the top than if you'd only lift all the stones to the top .
Computer graphics very well done
But definitely this is not how pyramids were build
GAZi EMRA then how?
Then come up with a better theory, and do a experiment proving your theory. I wanna see the heaviest stones moved just as they were then, using the ropes that they had then. All you have to do is wet the sand, right? We have heavy equipment now, should be easy enough, right?

@Keith Au There is a simpler explanation than this that also uses water.
Much the same way that water wheels on rivers are harnessed to do tasks for humans, you just need to channel the water to a mechanism that can transfer the energy to lifting or pulling force.
Certainly building a lock that pushes blocks up a tall pyramid sounds a lot more laborious than building a pulley system that harnesses hydro mechanical energy.

I don't think so. Why is it so hard for people to believe that the blocks were pulled on sleds and the massive ones were rolled. It only takes a few men to roll a massive block and not a lot to pull on a sled.
Egyptian drawings show this method of dragging heavy monuments.
Interesting idea...
And I like how, (@ 8:20), removing a few floats will allow the block to sink part way, but not all the way down...
I thought that once the buoyancy is less than the load, it will sink to the bottom, not stop half way down.
And how they do not collapse under the amount of pressure it experiences under that big sloped column of water.
@@takix2007 never mind that when he opens the gate at the very very top of the pyramid, that whole lake of water up there is kind enough to stay put lol

Well, there is neutral buoyancy...as a SCUBA diver, you can reach a point where you can "hover" in place, but doing so with a person and doing so with a huge stone are quite different things.
Consider this: a block of stone of 1meter by 1meter by 2 meters is 2 cubic meters the medium density of lime stone is 2,650 kg. per cubic meter, so this stone bloc is approximately 5,300 kilograms, by Archimede principles it will need more that 5.3 cubic meters of water to be moved to barely float.

@@i8fish Try to float 2 ton blocks of limestone. If you can, then float 20 ton blocks of granite. Also, those weights are on the lighter side of the blocks used.
The specific gravity of limestone is 2.7. This means that in order to float a limestone block in water, you need to displace over 2.7 times the volume of the block, including any compression of the animal bladders. So the volume of animal bladders would need to be almost twice the size of the limestone block and be wholly submerged. The animation shows less than 1.0 as best I can tell.

Always wondered how that tonnage got to the of of the Pyramid. This is a fantastic bit of research. Do you think the Egyptians used diesel engines to pump the water... or would it have been all electric?
they used water pumps developed by extraterrestrials 😉
Egyptians only stole from them never built them
They collected rain water with funnels. It used to rain a lot in the past and The Sahara was grass-lands.
An Archimedes screw can lift up water. In other ancient records, it is believed that Joseph created a canal system and water came right up to the pyramid. According to the K 2019 documentary on You Tube, the blocks were created on site in wooden molds by a polymer or cement. See also the new discovery that the "H" blocks in Globeki Tempe? ( or is it Puma Punku ?) were made of a polymer. You also have to remember that Joseph would have had only 7 years to build the Pyramid and have it filled with grain before the famine started.
@@didibrant7326 Agreed, Archimedes Screw could have done it. The challenge for Archimedes would have been to make a time machine first - so that he could go back 2000 years to help out on the Pyramids....or catch a very very fast Greyhound bus. However, I would say they wouldn't let him on the bus with oversized luggage.
it would take them longer to build a sealed water system and shafts than the pyramid
Lol
and to maintain water flow lol... in the middle fcuking desert!!! i dont think this technic shown in this video is viable... just dont made sense... water is scarce in egypt back then... and yet they manage to build a big reservoir in the middle of fcuking desert??? hahahaaa
back then it wasnt scarce... The Nilo was the main source for living...
Scarce? True, the only source of water available to them was ONLY THE LONGEST FUCKING RIVER IN THE WORLD a few miles away. Twit.
it wasn't a desert then look something up why don't ya... back when these were built it was totally different there, and the Nile had a slightly different course that came right up to the Pyramids... running under some of them. The tunnels still exist. Look them up, the videos of those tunnels are by Brien Forester i think
how would you get waterproof seals using wood and stone
So I think this theory is bs but that part isn't. The aqueducts were stone and they were water proof. The wooden doors of the locks would have many thousands of thousands of pounds of pressure on them which if pushed against a stone, perhaps with a leather seal would make a water proof seal easy. The problem is the friction force would be insane. Lifting that door would be way harder than lifting a block...
The pyramids themselves were waterproof.
THANK YOU! I don't think Phil Swift was around then! The watertight pools and columns were hilarious! How many psi do you figure are pushing on that mud and twig seal at the bottom of that water column! This idiot should apologize!
The same way how wooden boats and ships are waterproof. Wood expand when exposed water makes the structure sealed.
@@maxhamilton8204 Boats don't have to deal with the massive pressure that would be at the bottom of that water column.
How do you transport all that water UP the side of the pyramid to begin with? How do you water proof the inside of the water shaft on the side of the pyramid to prevent massive amounts of water seeping out of the joints? What about the very top of the pyramid? I think there were multiple techniques used to build them, and the time it took to do so probably took hundreds of years.
Buckets and bubble gum.

Internal spiraling ramp. Already proven. Watch john perrier's " Khufu's Pyramid Revealed" it will blow your mind.
To me, the obvious method was the use of hoisting derricks and glory holes. You simply leave out sections of the pyramid to create shafts where can just hoist them right up to the level you're working at. You can jump the derricks up to new levels as needed always leaving stone behind so that you can patch it up later. The trick isn't placing the material, is the manufacturing and the delivery of it. The pyramids probably went up very fast (a couple of years). The biggest delays are the material and the finishing.
How did they keep the water sealed in the uphill pathway? It would have to be completely sealed to not lose pressure.
The water pressure at the bottom of the vertical shaft would explode the entire structure.
what is he using as a seal...mud?!!?
How? I'm not familiar with the science. Can you explain further?
true
@@KodeKween The pressure at the bottom of the vertical shaft is the greatest. This is because the shaft is literally a tower of solid water, and water weighs a sh*t ton. If you were to fill a passenger size car full of water, that equates to 6500 lbs of water. Now multiply this by 50x, 100x, or 500x, whatever the case may be depending on the size and volume of this shaft. This is expected to be contained by the mud/stone/wood surrounding the shaft of water.
@@ForrestSchultz89 what if the pyramid was built in a space down the sea level and near a river? pretty much the same, but then only need to flood your construction space, position everything, quit the baloons and let the water get out.
still, how do you put the rocks on the river in the first place.
I have an issue from the very beginning, using floats with inflated animal skins and stomachs...you know how many "floats" it would take to make one of those blocks buoyant and just all the multitudes of problems you'd have along the way. I appreciate you've at least spent the time to think of how they managed to do something no one else has solved but until someone does an experiment using floats with the natural items from then it's just too hard to even believe.
Exactly. Many many floats..
Nah man, you see, I can take a concept, and do a 1 to 1 million scale experiment, and show this pebble floating, or a copper saw and sand cutting a hair depth of granite, and bam thats all the proof I need.
most plausible one is that the Egyptians employed a sloping and encircling embankment of brick, earth, and sand, which was increased in height and length as the pyramid rose; stone blocks were hauled up the ramp by means of sledges, rollers, and levers.
Humans did not build anything with big stone blocks thousands of yeard ago ! They only found what was already there ruclips.net/user/shortskdg865fAks8
The water shaft is a good idea but I can't see how they would have manage to maintain the water as the pressure would surely be massive. I think your idea is floored.
But where are all these channels + locks + waterways ? And how they pump it up to the top of the Pyramids ?
Nice Hypothesis, but the locks/gates would be unable to function. The force on the gates would be hundreds of tons per square inch, even if it didn't shatter the gate you could never get it open.
And next thing is waterway going from bottom to top of pyramid.
Pressure on air containers (and walls and watergate ) at bottom of waterway will be milion of pascals at height 100 meters We know that great pyramide height is 139 m..... No rock will hold static pressure of this degree. First thing- air container made form skins will collapse under that pressure and block will lose its displacement.
Simple.
The bottom gate would only have the pressure of water on it that is between it and the next gate, there could have just been many gates, the more gates the less load per gate, completely plausible in theory.
@@mitchellholland3690 Sure and how much gates you need to share milion pascals of pressure?
Wooden gates i presume?
Well biggest problem is with air containers - thay will collapse and shrink under water pressure.
Simple.
@@krzysztofrusek9096 Also how to pump up tons of water to a hundred meter height?
Really I think you better go back to Egypt have another think

I love your comment
What would happen when at any stage in the system 1 or more blocks flotation systems failed and the block sank and caused a jam or an impassable obstruction? How would you then refloat the block to get the system working again. All that water would also need to be continually carried to the top of the system by hand and poured into the chutes and canals so the manpower for this alone would be equal to that of the block sled / pulling theories. Its a nice idea and well thought out but there are too many variables to go wrong and it is overall too improbable.

I love what you did here, but can, as a dam engineer, prove it would not work. A stone elevator up through the center of the pyramid would stand a better chance since the pyramid conveniently has ultra-thick walls at the bottom where the hydrostatic pressure is greatest. But this too leaves far too many unanswered questions

I had to skim back through this but I can't find where the theory talks about how the water got to the top of the pyramid in the first place?
Biggest problem with this "theory" is how did they fill up the water channel at the top, amd how was it maintained. It would need massive pumps to refill every time you emptied each lock
Pumps? :) This was stoneage times. They would have had to carry a hundret thousand water filled goat skins up there everytime they drained the water in one of the segments.

This might be the most unrealistic theory I've ever heard
True, the aliens theory is more bleivable
😁but interesting
🙃🙃🙃🥴😆😆😆
Filling and emptying water containers with water thousands of times requires an amount of energy that exceeds the capabilities of ancient times.
Add to the above the problems of dealing with water pressure, whether on the walls of the shafts or at the highest levels of the pyramid and the walls containing them, where the weight of the floating rocks doubles the total value of the water pressure.
Then there is the problem of stubborn leakage under enormous pressure in a system like this.
You don't think its possible that some really high iq individual amongst the population came up with this? I can see it
This isnt a theory, this is a hypothesis. Theory means its been well thought out and tested as much as possible. Hypothesis means its a idea in basic brain storming… like how many people would it take to fill that channel from the top of the pyramid everytime one of those locks were opened.
Since no silicone was found on the job site, I think they used a lot of bees wax to seal all the waterways and chambers.
i suppose they used Flex-Seal to make sure there were no leaks between the blocks they used for their coffer dams and lock doors. Sheese! what a bunch of extra work.
Yup that’s exactly what I thought or perhaps no nails ?? 😂
Humans did not build the pyramids
@@brucekirk5386 prove it.
They had an abundance of goats, so they used goat SHIT to slide blocks in place and to seal joints. Might be some sheep shit, little puppy poop, some crane crap, and a few turtle turds.
They used water buffalos. And they can go for weeks without drinking.
If you assume the density of stone/rock as 2,5 (or a bit more), how much air would you need in the animal skins to keep a given mass of stone afloat in water? Nice theory, but too optimistic and not reality-oriented.
How would you get the necessary huge amount of water to the top of the pyramid construction site?
How do you get those many tons of water up in a watertight basin? The animation indicates that the stones go up obliquely, unfortunately they rub hard against the top of the channel and the air pockets are then damaged immediately, because driving things want to go straight up, so more stones will come down than to upstairs haha. How many of these basins should be built at different heights?
Certainly not thought of the water pressure, every 10 meters of height gives 10,000 kg per square meter (10 tons) and they should be a little higher I thought. What calculation did this "architect" do to calculate the strength of the stones? These stones are then only loaded on tension and bending, which is exactly what the stone cannot withstand. How does he get these channels watertight? There is a solution, that is with cement and concrete, then it only works if you heavily reinforced it with iron, but they only had copper. The most probable is that all the stones were cast on the spot, by simply carrying or lifting many bags of cement, together with water bags and throwing them into a wooden formwork. You are then quickly ready with a block of, for example, 3000 kg. A little easier I thought. Which one of you has seen this movie? ruclips.net/video/k0nOw_ebmGk/видео.html
Or why not have a straight shaft in the middle of the pyramid so the stone would actually hold the water in
Yeah they had water it is Nile river near by. Dont forget it was twice as big than today

@@heinpereboom5521 somekind of valves and pressure. I think those large blocks of granite served that propose
I understand the scepticism felt by most here when applying logic to this proposed method of construction. As many have already pointed out, the math doesn't add up and this process would fundamentally create more issues than it would solve.
That being said, this explanation seems far more sensible than assuming they dragged 3 million giant granite blocks from the quarry and pulled them up and into petfect positions. This mainstream explanation is far more absurd and illogical than the water theory. At least this seems plausible albeit full of irrevocable issues and assumptions.
Given that these structures exist therefore must have a reasonable explanation to describe their construction, perhaps water and floats were used for part of the process and a combination of methodologies were used to create the pyramids, whenever they were actually built...
It's really important to have an open mind and to give each theory some respect as it may provide clues to the bigger, overall picture. If there's problems with the theory, that doesn't necessarily mean the entire theory is bad.
Unless we open up the possibility that we're all wrong about how the great pyramids were constructed and create a collaborative process using portions of each different theory in order to find a solution, chances are we'll never figure it out. Intellectual narcissism, scathing ridicule of alternative ideas and a flat out incorrect description of the pyramids construction told by mainstream archaeology is entirely unhelpful when making a serious attempt at describing history.
History is what it was, it happened in a very specific and particular way that's not up for debate. Our mission should be to find that truth irrespective of what we'd like the truth to be.
