My crackpot theory is that aliens showed up, told the Egyptians at lasergun-point to build them pyramids, but then didn’t give them any help at all. The Egyptians had to work out all the trigonometry and engineering entirely for themselves, while those lazy fucking aliens hung back and contributed absolutely nothing. Fuck those goddamn lazy space aliens.
Excuse me, they’re ‘job creators.’
Damn Goa’uld.
Very heavy Cunk On Earth vibes on this one.
Don’t tell me what to do! :-P
Love her humour. It’s impossible not to cringe while watching but at the same time it’s captivating.
I remember watching this vut can’t remember where it’s from.
I didn’t remember either but I took like a quarter hour and got it. This character’s name is Philomena Cunk.
These weren’t built in Egypt at all. They imported them from the Mayans.
… who had licensed them from the Toltecs.
You do build steel grain bins from the top, down, however

Nah, it’s just good old fashioned legacy colonial racism.

That’s dumb, I’m sure some think that because of racism but that can be said of anything. I think for most it’s due to the mystery about their construction that still remains and the seeming impossibility of moving huge numbers of truly massive blocks 6000 years ago. If it was an equivalent sized castle or something built with blocks that could be carried by one or two people there would be less motivation to look for crazy explanations.
Not everything is racist.
Maybe that’s what they mean when they say we couldn’t build the pyramids with modern technology. Not nearly enough slaves.
Except they weren’t built by slaves…
Also they probably packed in dirt to act as ramps, and shit loads of labor.
Secret trick no one knows to make your own pyramid

We learned many things from the mighty Egyptians, such as pyramid building, space travel… and how to prepare our dead so as to scare Abbott and Costello.
