1 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:42,080 The idea that some ancient civilizations had high technology and engineering, much 2 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,120 as we do today, fascinated me. 3 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:49,080 So I enlisted the help of British engineer Christopher Dunn. 4 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:54,160 Before we met in Egypt, I visited him at the Danville Metal Stamping Plant. 5 00:01:54,160 --> 00:02:07,160 OK, we move beyond now what it takes to actually cut something. 6 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,600 How were they checking it? 7 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,640 How were they guiding that tool? 8 00:02:11,640 --> 00:02:16,440 Because obviously they had to have had some metrology instruments. 9 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:22,800 They had to engage metrology instruments to be able to verify that they were maintaining 10 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:27,800 parallelism between this surface and the opposing surface right there. 11 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:36,800 And you just don't get that by line of sight or saying, you know, we'll get Joe on the 12 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:38,800 job today because he's got really good eyesight. 13 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:39,800 Yeah. 14 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:45,800 Now, see, I could go with some of that in small grooves and stuff like you're saying 15 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,160 there, but that one... 16 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:54,160 I mean, and so basically the conclusion on these artifacts and a lot of the other artifacts 17 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:59,160 that we look at is, you know, they were using tools that no longer exist. 18 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,160 They're not in the archaeological record anymore. 19 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,160 They do not exist anyway. 20 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:09,160 And so then the question is, OK, what are the minimum requirements? 21 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:16,520 What's the minimum tooling level or technology, if you will, to be able to do this? 22 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:27,520 And this is the most striking example where people just go, whoa, because for you as 23 00:03:27,640 --> 00:03:37,640 an engineer and also an expert machinist, corners, inside corners, mean something to 24 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:38,640 you, right? 25 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:40,120 Yeah. 26 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:47,120 Five-thirty seconds of an inch inside corner on those boxes, top to bottom. 27 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,120 Now, that photographs a little blood. 28 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,120 Now, that's not two pieces coming together. 29 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:53,120 No. 30 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:54,120 No. 31 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,120 That's just a square granite fillet. 32 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,120 Solid block. 33 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:02,120 Consistent all the way down. 34 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:03,600 Yeah. 35 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:09,600 And why would they really have to be so precise is what blows my mind. 36 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:14,600 Now, this is how they would, you know, conventionally they would say this is how they built something 37 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:15,600 like that. 38 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:22,600 And then for squaring something off, of course, you know, the way a carbon tool is squared 39 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:31,600 a frame, obviously measured from corner to corner, which is a low tech compared to a 40 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,080 what we have here. 41 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,080 And you can't verify that with a piece of string. 42 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:44,080 I mean, you know, that kind of precision, you can't verify with a piece of string. 43 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,080 So that's what we're faced with. 44 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:47,080 And there's not just one there. 45 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,080 It's not like they got lucky on one box. 46 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:54,080 There's over twenty of them in this facility, down in the rock tunnels at the Serapion, 47 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:57,080 near the Saqqara in Egypt. 48 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:02,560 So I'm back to they had, like you mentioned earlier, they had hundreds and hundreds of 49 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:07,560 people spending hours and days and months and years doing this stuff. 50 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:14,560 But let me take you back to the historical information on the Serapion. 51 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:15,560 Okay. 52 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:19,560 You know what they were supposed to be using for those boxes? 53 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:24,560 They were burying the Apis bull, which was a revered animal. 54 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:25,560 Okay. 55 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,040 The Apis bull's lifespan is supposed to be 28 years. 56 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:36,040 And they say that when an Apis bull was selected, they would start building his burial tomb. 57 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:37,040 This is Egyptologists. 58 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:38,040 Is that what they say? 59 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:39,040 Okay. 60 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,040 So 28 years. 61 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:53,040 Now, they've also done some time studies on how fast they can remove granite using the 62 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,520 ancient Egyptian tools. 63 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:56,520 Okay. 64 00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:03,520 Now, you use the material removal ray of the old methods and the bulls run out by the time. 65 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:12,040 You know, using the maximum number of workers that you can actually get in the work site. 66 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:17,040 And you're not talking 28 years, you're talking 50 plus years. 67 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,480 And that's just roughing the bloody thing out. 68 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,480 That's not even lapping it. 69 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,480 So now, we're talking power tools, right? 70 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:28,480 Exactly. 71 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:29,480 Okay, right. 72 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:30,480 Exactly. 73 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:35,480 From what I'm seeing, I'm looking at that picture and there's tool marks on it. 74 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:39,920 Anything we machine, though most of what we machine, there are tool marks. 75 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:43,080 You just don't see them because they're so minute. 76 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:47,480 But also because of the feed of the tool. 77 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,080 It controls that surface finish. 78 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:54,480 If you plow down through a piece of any kind of material, you're going to have a rougher 79 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,380 surface. 80 00:06:56,380 --> 00:07:01,800 If you go slower, the feed rate's slower, the RPMs are faster, you're going to have 81 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,240 a nicer, smoother finish. 82 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:10,360 So this blows me out of the water a little bit because of those tool marks. 83 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,280 That's telling me they wasted no time cutting through this thing. 84 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:14,280 Okay, it's really bad. 85 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,880 Now, I've been talking lapping and all this. 86 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:21,960 This is a feed rate of 100,000 per evolution, which it would be difficult to achieve on 87 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:27,760 aluminum using cowbite tools, let alone in granite. 88 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:36,120 So basically, what you're looking at is something that is only explained if you consider 89 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,920 non-conventional types of machining. 90 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:45,980 My first impression was, with very little historical background, that all this was done 91 00:07:46,060 --> 00:07:47,060 by hand. 92 00:07:47,060 --> 00:07:53,580 It was lapping and chiseling and took many hours, days, weeks. 93 00:07:53,580 --> 00:07:57,180 Took a large amount of time. 94 00:07:57,180 --> 00:08:05,180 But after looking at some of the granite that I've seen, I question if it was even feasible 95 00:08:05,180 --> 00:08:06,180 to do by hand. 96 00:08:06,180 --> 00:08:10,980 And it kind of leads me into directions of thinking about the application of machine 97 00:08:10,980 --> 00:08:15,980 tools, for lack of a better, some time ago. 98 00:08:24,980 --> 00:08:33,980 I think all the evidence in Egypt indicates that there was a high civilization in prehistory. 99 00:08:33,980 --> 00:08:40,260 Now, when we look at the tools and the technology available to the ancient Egypt, we have to 100 00:08:40,260 --> 00:08:45,780 consider that the culture that built the pyramid, that built all these other monuments, 101 00:08:45,780 --> 00:08:52,260 was far older, because the tools do not exist for that particular epoch. 102 00:08:54,260 --> 00:08:59,260 It doesn't matter what site you go to in Egypt, whether it's Abou Goura, Bab al-Rouache, 103 00:08:59,260 --> 00:09:03,260 whether you're going to the temples in Upper Egypt. 104 00:09:03,260 --> 00:09:09,260 There's always some signature of technology. 105 00:09:09,260 --> 00:09:15,260 And that signature is actually the machine tools that were used and the marks that they 106 00:09:15,260 --> 00:09:16,260 left in the stone. 107 00:09:16,260 --> 00:09:23,260 And those marks are not just the cutting marks, but the geometry of the stone. 108 00:09:23,260 --> 00:09:33,260 I don't think it's an exaggeration to assume that a culture that has the genius to devise 109 00:09:33,260 --> 00:09:42,260 these wonderful miracles of engineering, limited that expertise and genius with just 110 00:09:42,260 --> 00:09:44,260 the design of the product. 111 00:09:44,260 --> 00:09:49,260 They had to have had the tools to match the job. 112 00:10:03,260 --> 00:10:21,260 According to Chris's theory, the ancients not only had electricity, but they had power 113 00:10:21,260 --> 00:10:23,260 tools as well. 114 00:10:23,260 --> 00:10:33,260 Chris shares my interest in ancient technology, so I had him take me around Giza for a day 115 00:10:33,260 --> 00:10:36,260 to look at things from an engineer's perspective. 116 00:10:36,260 --> 00:10:53,260 One of the great mysteries of the past is the enigma of the colossal cities of the 117 00:10:53,260 --> 00:10:54,260 ancients. 118 00:10:54,260 --> 00:11:05,260 How were they able to quarry and move these giant granite blocks? 119 00:11:05,260 --> 00:11:10,260 Many of these stones are extremely hard and difficult to cut, such as basalt and granite. 120 00:11:10,260 --> 00:11:15,260 How did the Egyptians build these complex geometric wonders? 121 00:11:15,260 --> 00:11:21,260 Did they use brute force or some kind of high technology? 122 00:11:21,260 --> 00:11:34,260 So what we found here on the Giza Plateau is one of these granite blocks that's been 123 00:11:34,260 --> 00:11:37,260 contoured. 124 00:11:37,260 --> 00:11:48,260 Chris is going to check it with his precision tools to see if there's some indication of 125 00:11:48,260 --> 00:11:52,260 modern machining techniques here on the granite. 126 00:11:52,260 --> 00:11:59,260 What we have here is a prime example of modern machining. 127 00:11:59,260 --> 00:12:06,260 We have a contour, not a true radius, but it's a contour. 128 00:12:06,260 --> 00:12:10,260 And the contour is precise. 129 00:12:10,260 --> 00:12:18,260 If you look at the gauge, the surface gauge, you'll see that there's very little light 130 00:12:18,260 --> 00:12:22,260 that's showing between the interface and the granite. 131 00:12:22,260 --> 00:12:31,260 The gauge is accurate to within one ten thousandths of an inch, which is one twentieth the thickness 132 00:12:31,260 --> 00:12:32,260 of a human hair. 133 00:12:32,260 --> 00:12:33,260 Wow. 134 00:12:33,260 --> 00:12:34,260 Yeah. 135 00:12:34,260 --> 00:12:38,260 It's very uniform, then. 136 00:12:38,260 --> 00:12:39,260 It's very uniform. 137 00:12:39,260 --> 00:12:52,260 There's some imperfections, but probably if I was to estimate how precise it was, I would 138 00:12:52,260 --> 00:12:59,260 say from five thousandths of an inch, which is quite remarkable, really. 139 00:12:59,260 --> 00:13:00,260 Okay, really, yeah. 140 00:13:00,260 --> 00:13:01,260 Yeah. 141 00:13:01,260 --> 00:13:04,260 Over that entire contour. 142 00:13:04,260 --> 00:13:15,260 Now, the features of this stone, you have this radius here that blends into, it's almost 143 00:13:15,260 --> 00:13:20,260 like it goes straight into the blend radius at the face. 144 00:13:20,260 --> 00:13:21,260 Okay. 145 00:13:21,260 --> 00:13:22,260 Okay. 146 00:13:22,260 --> 00:13:28,260 So, obviously, I mean, you know, you look at this, you can't, you can say, there's no 147 00:13:28,260 --> 00:13:31,260 way you could turn it on a lathe to achieve a true radius. 148 00:13:31,260 --> 00:13:41,260 So, they had to have, had a means of replicating that contour with precision over the entire 149 00:13:41,260 --> 00:13:42,260 length of the block. 150 00:13:42,260 --> 00:13:43,260 Okay. 151 00:13:43,260 --> 00:13:44,260 And how would you do that? 152 00:13:44,260 --> 00:13:51,260 Well, today, we would do it with a, like a CNC machine, or we could do it with a, in 153 00:13:51,260 --> 00:13:56,260 the old days, in machine shops, we'd do it with a profiler, where you'd actually follow 154 00:13:56,260 --> 00:14:02,260 a template with a rotating tool or a vibrating tool. 155 00:14:02,260 --> 00:14:03,260 Okay. 156 00:14:03,260 --> 00:14:13,260 And continue that, step it over, and continue that contour with precision right to the 157 00:14:13,260 --> 00:14:14,260 end. 158 00:14:14,260 --> 00:14:24,260 Now, this is where it becomes interesting, because you need to get a really good shot 159 00:14:24,260 --> 00:14:26,260 of this corner. 160 00:14:26,260 --> 00:14:27,260 Okay. 161 00:14:27,260 --> 00:14:36,260 So, now, what we have here is something very, what we recognize in modern manufacturing 162 00:14:36,260 --> 00:14:41,260 as a, actually, it's an engineered or designed feature. 163 00:14:41,260 --> 00:14:53,260 If you want to marry or fit an object with a sharp corner with a face, and also be able 164 00:14:53,260 --> 00:14:59,260 to use a tool to create this, that has greater rigidity and stability. 165 00:14:59,260 --> 00:15:06,260 So, you'd use a larger tool, and this is done with a ball, like a ball radius tool, a ball 166 00:15:06,260 --> 00:15:07,260 end mill. 167 00:15:07,260 --> 00:15:14,260 So, this radius would have been done with a ball end mill, or what we call a ball end 168 00:15:15,260 --> 00:15:24,260 where you have a, the bottom of the tool is actually shaped like a ball, half a ball. 169 00:15:24,260 --> 00:15:31,260 But the really interesting part of that is this relief, the way it comes down. 170 00:15:31,260 --> 00:15:32,260 The undercutting. 171 00:15:32,260 --> 00:15:35,260 Right, the undercutting and this groove right here. 172 00:15:35,260 --> 00:15:41,260 And as you can see, you have the larger radius here, but anything that would fit up against 173 00:15:41,260 --> 00:15:44,260 it could have a smaller radius. 174 00:15:44,260 --> 00:15:45,260 Okay. 175 00:15:45,260 --> 00:15:48,260 So, that is a unique feature. 176 00:15:48,260 --> 00:15:53,260 Now, the other thing is the size of the radius. 177 00:15:53,260 --> 00:15:54,260 Okay. 178 00:15:54,260 --> 00:15:58,260 So, that is going to require another tool. 179 00:15:58,260 --> 00:16:06,260 So, if you were just bashing this out with a Dolarite ball, you wouldn't have this undercutting 180 00:16:06,260 --> 00:16:07,260 like that. 181 00:16:07,260 --> 00:16:12,260 Well, actually, they wouldn't have bashed this out and achieved this. 182 00:16:12,260 --> 00:16:15,260 They could never have bashed this out and achieved this. 183 00:16:15,260 --> 00:16:16,260 No. 184 00:16:16,260 --> 00:16:17,260 No. 185 00:16:17,260 --> 00:16:18,260 No. 186 00:16:18,260 --> 00:16:23,260 There's the, I'm going to melt this, that again. 187 00:16:23,260 --> 00:16:24,260 There, there, nice. 188 00:16:24,260 --> 00:16:29,260 I'm going to melt this forming wax and press it into the corner. 189 00:16:37,260 --> 00:16:44,260 And I, actually, yeah, that looks good. 190 00:16:44,260 --> 00:16:51,260 I've actually done that previously, so that already had the shape of the radius. 191 00:16:51,260 --> 00:16:55,260 So, now you've, okay, now you've got a form, a wax form of the radius, and you can use 192 00:16:55,260 --> 00:16:58,260 that to check the consistency of the radius. 193 00:16:58,260 --> 00:16:59,260 Correct. 194 00:17:00,260 --> 00:17:11,260 And so, if you check this radius, even in this corner, okay, where you have one, two, 195 00:17:11,260 --> 00:17:26,260 three surfaces actually meeting, and if I slide it along that radius, we get the, pretty 196 00:17:26,260 --> 00:17:35,260 much the same radius, except for this flat part, because the, evidently, it came out, 197 00:17:35,260 --> 00:17:40,260 or there's a, I think there must be a larger radius there, but when you get down into 198 00:17:40,260 --> 00:17:45,260 here, let me look at that. 199 00:17:45,260 --> 00:17:46,260 Yeah. 200 00:17:49,260 --> 00:17:55,260 So, you have a consistent radius, and, you know, the question is, for something like 201 00:17:55,260 --> 00:18:04,260 this, why, to get something even remotely close to a perfect radius, it would take 202 00:18:04,260 --> 00:18:12,260 a tremendous amount of time by hand, but then to replicate that along the length of the 203 00:18:12,260 --> 00:18:13,260 block. 204 00:18:13,260 --> 00:18:19,260 Right, to keep it so uniform is just so much effort to do that. 205 00:18:19,260 --> 00:18:20,260 Right. 206 00:18:20,260 --> 00:18:24,260 But if you're using some kind of machining tool, it would happen naturally. 207 00:18:24,260 --> 00:18:26,260 You couldn't do it in the other way. 208 00:18:26,260 --> 00:18:27,260 That is correct. 209 00:18:27,260 --> 00:18:28,260 Yeah. 210 00:18:28,260 --> 00:18:29,260 That is correct. 211 00:18:29,260 --> 00:18:35,260 We have the other half, or not a half, but the portion of the block that has been broken 212 00:18:35,260 --> 00:18:36,260 off. 213 00:18:36,260 --> 00:18:44,260 Evidently, they took the end off, and it doesn't have the same features, but the basic geometry 214 00:18:44,260 --> 00:18:56,260 is the same, and the radius, as you slide it down, radius is fairly close. 215 00:18:56,260 --> 00:19:05,260 There's, obviously, there's going to be some imperfection, but. 216 00:19:05,260 --> 00:19:20,260 That's a precision radius gauge, 1532nds radius. 217 00:19:20,260 --> 00:19:29,260 See, that's incredible. 218 00:19:30,260 --> 00:19:38,260 That speaks volumes, to find something like that on something so ancient. 219 00:19:38,260 --> 00:19:46,260 I would have to use a modern instrument, or a modern gauge, to check its precision. 220 00:19:46,260 --> 00:19:51,260 Well, would a millimeter gauge also, it doesn't matter whether it's inches or millimeters. 221 00:19:51,260 --> 00:19:53,260 No, no, a radius is a radius. 222 00:19:53,260 --> 00:19:54,260 A radius is a radius, right. 223 00:19:54,260 --> 00:20:02,260 And so, you have the whole thing of the pyramid inch, and them using those measurements, 224 00:20:02,260 --> 00:20:04,260 but that's not what you're looking at. 225 00:20:04,260 --> 00:20:09,260 No, no, no, it doesn't matter whether it's inches, millimeters, cubits, whatever, pyramid 226 00:20:09,260 --> 00:20:10,260 inches. 227 00:20:10,260 --> 00:20:12,260 A length is a length, a radius is a radius. 228 00:20:12,260 --> 00:20:15,260 Right, I mean, it's the consistency and accuracy of it. 229 00:20:15,260 --> 00:20:22,260 Of course, you know, this is not quantitative in it, by any means, because for that, you'd 230 00:20:22,260 --> 00:20:29,260 really need to have some measuring instruments to check coordinates on it. 231 00:20:29,260 --> 00:20:39,260 Today, we would use a CMM machine, a computer, I mean, a coordinate measuring machine, and 232 00:20:39,260 --> 00:20:41,260 check it that way. 233 00:20:41,260 --> 00:20:52,260 But, no, of course, you know, the other part of it is that if you had a precise template, 234 00:20:52,260 --> 00:21:00,260 and you fit it to the template, then you could have that, you could create that contour. 235 00:21:00,260 --> 00:21:04,260 The evidence of machine work is in this block, it's in other blocks. 236 00:21:04,260 --> 00:21:08,260 The mountain of evidence that we find is in the Serapin. 237 00:21:08,260 --> 00:21:09,260 Okay. 238 00:21:09,260 --> 00:21:11,260 In those giant granite boxes. 239 00:21:11,260 --> 00:21:17,260 And it's kind of these inside corners that are so difficult to make without machine tools, 240 00:21:17,260 --> 00:21:18,260 right? 241 00:21:18,260 --> 00:21:20,260 I mean, is that kind of what... 242 00:21:20,260 --> 00:21:25,260 Yeah, I mean, this is not done with a dollar I found. 243 00:21:25,260 --> 00:21:28,260 Or a chisel, for that matter. 244 00:21:28,260 --> 00:21:32,260 You wouldn't, no, no, no, not a chisel. 245 00:21:32,260 --> 00:21:33,260 Not a chisel. 246 00:21:33,260 --> 00:21:41,260 So you have to ask yourself, why would they even want some curved piece of granite like 247 00:21:41,260 --> 00:21:46,260 this, and then go through the effort to actually create it? 248 00:21:46,260 --> 00:21:49,260 Well, that's a question that I've asked myself. 249 00:21:49,260 --> 00:21:54,260 And it is the obvious question, is why would they do that? 250 00:21:54,260 --> 00:22:04,260 Because it doesn't resemble anything that would fit with a statue or... 251 00:22:04,260 --> 00:22:07,260 It's obviously for construction. 252 00:22:07,260 --> 00:22:14,260 But in construction, we don't work with this kind of precision. 253 00:22:14,260 --> 00:22:16,260 Okay, yeah, all right. 254 00:22:16,260 --> 00:22:21,260 And there's another piece of evidence that we'll look at down near the Valley Temple, 255 00:22:21,260 --> 00:22:24,260 on the south side of the Valley Temple. 256 00:22:45,260 --> 00:22:50,260 Of the seven wonders of the ancient world, there's only one left. 257 00:22:50,260 --> 00:22:53,260 And that's the great pyramids of Giza. 258 00:22:53,260 --> 00:22:56,260 What secrets do they hold? 259 00:23:01,260 --> 00:23:10,260 And what we see here is basalt paving blocks on the southern side of the pyramid. 260 00:23:10,260 --> 00:23:12,260 But here we find something curious. 261 00:23:12,260 --> 00:23:18,260 We see actually saw marks here in the basalt. 262 00:23:18,260 --> 00:23:27,260 And in fact, this big saw mark here is going far behind inside this block. 263 00:23:27,260 --> 00:23:33,260 I mean, it would appear to be modern sawing. 264 00:23:33,260 --> 00:23:40,260 However, apparently this was done not in modern times, but in ancient times. 265 00:23:40,260 --> 00:23:52,260 And yet, looking at this cut, it must have been made by something like a machine tool and a diamond saw. 266 00:23:52,260 --> 00:23:58,260 This is not something that could have been made with crude tools like copper chisels. 267 00:23:58,260 --> 00:24:00,260 Here we also see saw cuts. 268 00:24:00,260 --> 00:24:08,260 And we can see a saw cut right here along the edge of this basalt block. 269 00:24:08,260 --> 00:24:12,260 This too appears to be done with some kind of a modern tool. 270 00:24:12,260 --> 00:24:16,260 Yet this cut was apparently done in ancient times. 271 00:24:19,260 --> 00:24:23,260 Were modern construction techniques used in the building of the pyramids, 272 00:24:23,260 --> 00:24:27,260 or were they built with stone balls and copper chisels? 273 00:24:29,260 --> 00:24:35,260 Well, we know that there's been cataclysms in history, prehistory. 274 00:24:35,260 --> 00:24:38,260 I don't think that nobody can argue that. 275 00:24:38,260 --> 00:24:49,260 The only thing that argues against it is some of the conventional evidence, archaeological evidence, for the time period of the pyramids. 276 00:24:49,260 --> 00:24:58,260 But if you look into that time period that's ascribed for the building of the pyramids, you don't find the tools. 277 00:24:58,260 --> 00:25:01,260 There are nowhere to be found. 278 00:25:01,260 --> 00:25:04,260 And I believe you have to go back earlier. 279 00:25:04,260 --> 00:25:12,260 There has to be an earlier civilization that suffered a huge cataclysm, totally wiped off the face of the planet. 280 00:25:12,260 --> 00:25:14,260 Okay. 281 00:25:14,260 --> 00:25:19,260 Interesting here, this hole is kind of like the doors of Mount Jibouti. 282 00:25:19,260 --> 00:25:21,260 Mm-hmm. 283 00:25:25,260 --> 00:25:27,260 Yeah, that's cool. 284 00:25:42,260 --> 00:25:49,260 So here at the pyramid of Abu Rawash, not many tourists come to this when it's on top of a mountain 285 00:25:49,260 --> 00:25:56,260 and appears to have been buried in some kind of a 286 00:25:56,260 --> 00:25:59,260 grave or some kind of a grave. 287 00:25:59,260 --> 00:26:02,260 And so this is the pyramid. 288 00:26:02,260 --> 00:26:04,260 And this is the pyramid. 289 00:26:04,260 --> 00:26:06,260 And this is the pyramid. 290 00:26:06,260 --> 00:26:14,260 It's on top of a mountain and appears to have been buried in some kind of a landslide or something. 291 00:26:36,260 --> 00:26:46,260 Yeah, this is like a rock-cut ramp right through a solid mountain. 292 00:26:46,260 --> 00:26:51,260 Yeah, this is like a rock-cut ramp right through a solid mountain. 293 00:26:51,260 --> 00:26:56,260 And then they've lined it with large limestone blocks. 294 00:26:56,260 --> 00:26:59,260 Like the entrance here to a pyramid. 295 00:26:59,260 --> 00:27:01,260 Wow. 296 00:27:02,260 --> 00:27:07,260 One of the alternative theories on building the pyramids, 297 00:27:07,260 --> 00:27:12,260 one that's been proposed by a French chemist named Joseph Davidovitz, 298 00:27:12,260 --> 00:27:16,260 is that the pyramids are actually poured into place. 299 00:27:16,260 --> 00:27:21,260 And the blocks are a form of molecular concrete. 300 00:27:21,260 --> 00:27:27,260 We know that the Egyptians used a form of concrete, the Romans used a form of concrete, 301 00:27:27,260 --> 00:27:30,260 the Mayans used a form of concrete. 302 00:27:30,260 --> 00:27:34,260 And here at Abu Ruwaash, just outside of Giza, 303 00:27:34,260 --> 00:27:39,260 we're also seeing the extensive use of concrete. 304 00:27:46,260 --> 00:27:54,260 There is extensive granite down here inside the pit of the pyramid of Abu Ruwaash. 305 00:27:54,260 --> 00:27:57,260 And granite is not found here at Giza. 306 00:27:57,260 --> 00:28:03,260 So any granite is coming from the Aswan quarries, which are 500 miles to the south. 307 00:28:03,260 --> 00:28:10,260 Chris is saying that there must have been a roof over this giant pit at one time. 308 00:28:10,260 --> 00:28:12,260 You can see part of it. 309 00:28:12,260 --> 00:28:20,260 But there would have been apparently massive stones, lentils spanning this roof. 310 00:28:20,260 --> 00:28:22,260 Must have been huge. 311 00:28:27,260 --> 00:28:55,260 Here's a very interesting granite slab here at Abu Ruwaash. 312 00:28:55,260 --> 00:29:01,260 It shows all the indications of having been cut with a modern saw. 313 00:29:01,260 --> 00:29:12,260 It's been smoothed and you can see, in fact, the saw marks on the block. 314 00:29:12,260 --> 00:29:17,260 Well, you know what, David? 315 00:29:17,260 --> 00:29:24,260 There are certain features to this that really don't lend to the theory that it was sawn. 316 00:29:24,260 --> 00:29:25,260 Really? 317 00:29:25,260 --> 00:29:27,260 Yeah. 318 00:29:27,260 --> 00:29:31,260 You see this cut right here where the cut ends? 319 00:29:31,260 --> 00:29:32,260 Yeah. 320 00:29:32,260 --> 00:29:33,260 Okay. 321 00:29:33,260 --> 00:29:35,260 Well, it's on a radius. 322 00:29:35,260 --> 00:29:37,260 All right. 323 00:29:37,260 --> 00:29:40,260 And it goes this way. 324 00:29:40,260 --> 00:29:42,260 So it's very large radius. 325 00:29:42,260 --> 00:29:43,260 Okay. 326 00:29:43,260 --> 00:29:45,260 It's arcing that way. 327 00:29:45,260 --> 00:29:47,260 It's arcing like that. 328 00:29:47,260 --> 00:29:48,260 All right. 329 00:29:48,260 --> 00:29:51,260 Now, if you're going to be using a saw, you won't get that. 330 00:29:51,260 --> 00:29:52,260 It'll be impossible. 331 00:29:52,260 --> 00:29:53,260 It would be impossible. 332 00:29:53,260 --> 00:30:00,260 If you're sawing from here to here, regardless of what you use, it would be impossible. 333 00:30:00,260 --> 00:30:04,260 Whatever cut that had a radius to it. 334 00:30:04,260 --> 00:30:08,260 Now, the question is, is it a true radius? 335 00:30:08,260 --> 00:30:09,260 What size is it? 336 00:30:09,260 --> 00:30:16,260 Obviously, it's quite huge because, you know, it probably goes up to that radius. 337 00:30:16,260 --> 00:30:22,260 So what kind of a tool would you say would be used to cut that then? 338 00:30:22,260 --> 00:30:34,260 Well, I mean, I've seen similar features in a machine shop. 339 00:30:34,260 --> 00:30:35,260 Okay. 340 00:30:35,260 --> 00:30:36,260 All right. 341 00:30:36,260 --> 00:30:38,260 And that's another feature on this. 342 00:30:38,260 --> 00:30:45,260 If you have a, like a milling cutter, a very large milling cutter, and it's tilted on an angle, 343 00:30:45,260 --> 00:30:51,260 then you're going to cut a large radius on the surface. 344 00:30:51,260 --> 00:30:55,260 Okay. 345 00:30:55,260 --> 00:30:56,260 Actually, you cut it more of an ellipse. 346 00:30:56,260 --> 00:31:02,260 But, you know, if you're covering the area enough, then it's going to appear like a radius. 347 00:31:02,260 --> 00:31:17,260 In fact, there are calculations used in tool and die making that give you the angle, the tilt of your tool 348 00:31:17,260 --> 00:31:23,260 associated with the diameter of the tool that will give you a specific radius. 349 00:31:23,260 --> 00:31:24,260 Okay. 350 00:31:24,260 --> 00:31:25,260 Yeah. 351 00:31:25,260 --> 00:31:29,260 I mean, this is remarkable because it has all those features. 352 00:31:29,260 --> 00:31:41,260 Now, okay, forgetting that, if we come back to this particular object, what tool actually created this? 353 00:31:41,260 --> 00:31:53,260 That to me is, I don't know of any primitive method that would create that. 354 00:31:53,260 --> 00:32:10,260 The, we have a feature right here where evidently there was, it came into a particular area and then it went off track. 355 00:32:10,260 --> 00:32:16,260 So they lifted it up and proceeded on because you've got a ridge there. 356 00:32:16,260 --> 00:32:17,260 Yeah. 357 00:32:17,260 --> 00:32:18,260 Right? 358 00:32:18,260 --> 00:32:19,260 Yeah. 359 00:32:19,260 --> 00:32:20,260 Yeah. 360 00:32:20,260 --> 00:32:21,260 You can see it. 361 00:32:21,260 --> 00:32:22,260 Yeah. 362 00:32:22,260 --> 00:32:23,260 So they were starting to cut it. 363 00:32:23,260 --> 00:32:24,260 Right. 364 00:32:24,260 --> 00:32:25,260 Okay. 365 00:32:25,260 --> 00:32:34,260 But the interesting thing is when you look at the striations on the block, because you can see them right here, 366 00:32:34,260 --> 00:32:42,260 it does appear that it was a tool that was radius. 367 00:32:42,260 --> 00:32:52,260 Well, of course, one could argue that they used a saw that was somehow curved 368 00:32:52,260 --> 00:32:59,260 and, you know, had one fellow on one side, another fellow on the other, and they were just doing this business. 369 00:32:59,260 --> 00:33:05,260 But the problem with that is, how did it create this curve here? 370 00:33:05,260 --> 00:33:07,260 Uh-huh. 371 00:33:07,260 --> 00:33:15,260 And so if we take this straight edge, you'll see that there's light in the center. 372 00:33:15,260 --> 00:33:16,260 Uh-huh. Right. 373 00:33:16,260 --> 00:33:17,260 Okay. 374 00:33:17,260 --> 00:33:19,260 So it's slightly dished out. 375 00:33:19,260 --> 00:33:20,260 It's slightly dished out. 376 00:33:20,260 --> 00:33:35,260 And as you track across the surface, that light does not go away, nor does it change much. 377 00:33:35,260 --> 00:33:36,260 Fascinating. 378 00:33:36,260 --> 00:33:51,260 So, I mean, in the mainstream Egyptology explanations of bashing this out with a stone, using copper chisels, 379 00:33:51,260 --> 00:33:56,260 that would be impossible in your mind to create this. 380 00:33:56,260 --> 00:33:59,260 Well, you wouldn't create something like that, bashing it out. 381 00:33:59,260 --> 00:34:03,260 There have been some experimental tests. 382 00:34:03,260 --> 00:34:12,260 There has been experimental work done where they have cut granite using a copper saw and hand. 383 00:34:12,260 --> 00:34:19,260 But to the extent that they would actually create something like this is quite remarkable. 384 00:34:19,260 --> 00:34:24,260 Not only that, look at this. You know, the size of it. That's quite a large saw. 385 00:34:24,260 --> 00:34:25,260 This is a very interesting block. 386 00:34:25,260 --> 00:34:38,260 I mean, and so in your mind, this is evidence of modern type of machining, advanced machining, but done in ancient times. 387 00:34:38,260 --> 00:34:55,260 I would say that if we were looking for evidence of ancient methods, I wouldn't expect to see this. 388 00:34:55,260 --> 00:35:00,260 If I was in a modern machine shop, this would not surprise me. 389 00:35:00,260 --> 00:35:11,260 You know, with this fascinating block of granite that appears to be sliced by a giant diamond saw, 390 00:35:11,260 --> 00:35:20,260 this is the kind of thing that I'm hoping we're going to find on the Altiplano of the Andes in Peru and Bolivia, 391 00:35:20,260 --> 00:35:23,260 Puma Punku and other sites there. 392 00:35:30,260 --> 00:35:47,260 This is the ancient sun temple of Abu Garab on the edge of the western desert of Saqqara. 393 00:35:47,260 --> 00:36:00,260 This ruined pyramid area once contained an obelisk at the top and all around it are scattered blocks of granite and alabaster. 394 00:36:00,260 --> 00:36:07,260 Here at Abu Garab, there is evidence of ancient machining. 395 00:36:07,260 --> 00:36:12,260 Chris, what do you think about this block here of granite? 396 00:36:12,260 --> 00:36:19,260 Well, as you can see, David, there is a hole that's actually been core drilled, 397 00:36:19,260 --> 00:36:29,260 and it has similar features to the hole and core that Petri described in his book, 398 00:36:29,260 --> 00:36:32,260 Pyramids and Temples of Giza, which I wrote in my book. 399 00:36:32,260 --> 00:36:36,260 And the striations are visible there. 400 00:36:37,260 --> 00:36:42,260 It's very difficult, I mean, it would be difficult to find out if it's actually a spiral, 401 00:36:42,260 --> 00:36:46,260 but if it's anything like the core that is found in the Petri Museum, 402 00:36:46,260 --> 00:36:51,260 then those striations do form a spiral down the entire length of it. 403 00:36:51,260 --> 00:36:57,260 And that would be only done with some modern machining type tool? 404 00:36:57,260 --> 00:37:01,260 That's what I concluded, that it was some kind of sonic core drill. 405 00:37:01,260 --> 00:37:03,260 A sonic core drill, doing that. 406 00:37:03,260 --> 00:37:08,260 And what is the mainstream explanation for a hole like that? 407 00:37:08,260 --> 00:37:15,260 The mainstream explanation for doing this kind of work is to use copper and sand, 408 00:37:15,260 --> 00:37:22,260 and essentially rotate the copper in two directions, with a bow drill. 409 00:37:22,260 --> 00:37:26,260 And is it a hollow copper tube then? 410 00:37:26,260 --> 00:37:31,260 A hollow copper tube attached to a piece of wood, 411 00:37:31,260 --> 00:37:39,260 where you rotate the wood and the copper by wrapping string around it, 412 00:37:39,260 --> 00:37:42,260 and attaching the ends to a piece of wood. 413 00:37:42,260 --> 00:37:43,260 Like a bow and a drill. 414 00:37:43,260 --> 00:37:46,260 Right, and then you just rotate it that way. 415 00:37:46,260 --> 00:37:53,260 The problem with that method though, is that the core in the Petri Museum 416 00:37:53,260 --> 00:37:58,260 shows that the spiral is only in one direction. 417 00:37:58,260 --> 00:38:00,260 Uh-huh, okay. 418 00:38:00,260 --> 00:38:05,260 And also the feed lines, or the feed rate, 419 00:38:05,260 --> 00:38:12,260 that's the distance each striation has, the distance the drill goes in a 360 degree rotation, 420 00:38:12,260 --> 00:38:17,260 is almost one-eighth of an inch, which is an incredible feed rate. 421 00:38:18,260 --> 00:38:22,260 And we see striations here, and like I said, 422 00:38:22,260 --> 00:38:30,260 it's very difficult to really tell whether they are a continuous spiral down the length of it, 423 00:38:30,260 --> 00:38:33,260 but still it's quite interesting. 424 00:38:33,260 --> 00:38:35,260 Yeah. 425 00:38:48,260 --> 00:38:53,260 This is what they call the alabaster altar here at Abu Garab. 426 00:38:53,260 --> 00:39:01,260 It's a curious star shape, made with about four giant slabs of alabaster, 427 00:39:01,260 --> 00:39:06,260 and it also shows some evidence of ancient machining. 428 00:39:06,260 --> 00:39:08,260 Yep. 429 00:39:09,260 --> 00:39:16,260 Well, what we have here is a perfect circle cut into the stone, 430 00:39:16,260 --> 00:39:26,260 and essentially, it looks like what they did is they came down with a core drill in this corner right here, 431 00:39:26,260 --> 00:39:30,260 because you have that machine as a depression. 432 00:39:30,260 --> 00:39:37,260 That would have left a central core, but then what they would have done is 433 00:39:37,260 --> 00:39:46,260 machine this surface into, to meet this feature right here. 434 00:39:46,260 --> 00:39:51,260 So they started out with a hole, and then machine that. 435 00:39:51,260 --> 00:39:56,260 You see the difference in tool marks, or the difference in geometry here. 436 00:39:56,260 --> 00:40:04,260 You have the geometry of this tool, which has a larger radius here, 437 00:40:04,260 --> 00:40:08,260 and then you have the geometry of the drill. 438 00:40:08,260 --> 00:40:15,260 And so they drill that out, knock the core out, and brought this in, 439 00:40:15,260 --> 00:40:27,260 and then cut this onto a radius, and there are one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight of these features around the block. 440 00:40:27,260 --> 00:40:32,260 Now, what they were intended for, it's a mystery. 441 00:40:32,260 --> 00:40:38,260 Yeah, yeah. What are the purpose of all this, and even why they would cut this out like this? 442 00:40:38,260 --> 00:40:50,260 And there's another of these features over on that other corner, except that it's not a full circle, it's just like a half a circle. 443 00:40:51,260 --> 00:40:59,260 And so if you were actually doing this with a very slow, laborious hand drilling thing, 444 00:40:59,260 --> 00:41:03,260 you probably wouldn't have, you know, overcut it like this, right? 445 00:41:03,260 --> 00:41:07,260 Well, I mean, I'm not saying that that's necessarily the case, 446 00:41:07,260 --> 00:41:13,260 but the problem that we have with the conventional theory of cutting stone, 447 00:41:13,260 --> 00:41:24,260 such as with, you know, stone and bashing with stone, chisels, or just grinding it with a lot of lapping it, 448 00:41:24,260 --> 00:41:33,260 why, you know, these surfaces are very smooth, okay? 449 00:41:33,260 --> 00:41:42,260 But you'll notice, some of them, the surfaces are smooth, but you'll notice that the alabaster is very brittle. 450 00:41:42,260 --> 00:41:44,260 And it has the crystals in it, yeah. 451 00:41:44,260 --> 00:42:00,260 Yeah, and so this is not a stone that you would actually bash with another stone, to achieve this kind of smoothness, black surface. 452 00:42:00,260 --> 00:42:12,260 But they created this feature as a relief, so that a mating pod or a mating object, something that would fit snugly over the top of it. 453 00:42:12,260 --> 00:42:13,260 Okay. 454 00:42:13,260 --> 00:42:25,260 Because if you follow this surface here, it goes right into this area here, where this radius starts, okay? 455 00:42:25,260 --> 00:42:34,260 So that's the only explanation I have for that, that, you know, this is meaningless, except for clearance. 456 00:42:34,260 --> 00:42:38,260 Clearance, okay, and then other stone blocks then were fitted down in here? 457 00:42:38,260 --> 00:42:39,260 Oh, whatever it was. 458 00:42:39,260 --> 00:42:40,260 Whatever it was? 459 00:42:40,260 --> 00:42:41,260 Stone, yeah. 460 00:42:41,260 --> 00:42:44,260 Okay, out of stone, or even possibly metal parts? 461 00:42:44,260 --> 00:42:50,260 Whatever material that was available in prehistory. 462 00:42:50,260 --> 00:43:07,260 So, you know, this is another example, and there are many of them throughout Egypt, another example of very, very high proficiency in cutting stone, and in my opinion, they had to have had advanced technology. 463 00:43:07,260 --> 00:43:16,260 And here is the other feature right here, where you have that circle, which is actually a half. 464 00:43:16,260 --> 00:43:17,260 Uh-huh. 465 00:43:17,260 --> 00:43:27,260 Okay, and the same kind of features, the same radius here coming into the corner, but this is a sharper radius right here. 466 00:43:27,260 --> 00:43:29,260 So you have a sharp radius there. 467 00:43:29,260 --> 00:43:37,260 And to the life of me, I can't understand why they found these necessary, but obviously they had a need. 468 00:43:37,260 --> 00:43:40,260 I mean, today in manufacturing, we have lots of weird shapes. 469 00:43:40,260 --> 00:43:42,260 Uh-huh. 470 00:43:42,260 --> 00:43:44,260 And there's another one, see? 471 00:43:44,260 --> 00:43:45,260 Yeah. 472 00:43:45,260 --> 00:43:49,260 But they didn't, this is further away from the corner. 473 00:43:49,260 --> 00:43:50,260 From the corner, yeah, right. 474 00:43:50,260 --> 00:43:51,260 Right. 475 00:43:51,260 --> 00:43:54,260 So it's quite fascinating. 476 00:43:54,260 --> 00:44:01,260 So it's clear that they started each of these niches by first coring down here and then cutting away. 477 00:44:01,260 --> 00:44:03,260 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 478 00:44:03,260 --> 00:44:14,260 So evidently, what I would suggest is that whatever, that something fit on top of this thing, and these surfaces are on an angle. 479 00:44:14,260 --> 00:44:22,260 And so whatever fits slipped on here, and they cut this out as a relief. 480 00:44:22,260 --> 00:44:29,260 And so whatever fit on it came into this surface right here. 481 00:44:29,260 --> 00:44:32,260 And so what you have is a relief right there. 482 00:44:32,260 --> 00:44:33,260 That's great. 483 00:44:33,260 --> 00:44:35,260 And now, wow, look at this, you guys. 484 00:44:35,260 --> 00:44:39,260 Here's a saw mark on this circular piece. 485 00:44:39,260 --> 00:44:41,260 Look at that. 486 00:44:41,260 --> 00:44:42,260 It's been cut in. 487 00:44:42,260 --> 00:44:44,260 Now, how did they do that? 488 00:44:44,260 --> 00:44:48,260 I think we need to get up on top so that we can examine it more closely. 489 00:44:48,260 --> 00:44:50,260 Basically, you're going to start here. 490 00:44:50,260 --> 00:44:58,260 You're going to reach the top, or the top of the radius, the maximum distance, and then taper out. 491 00:44:58,260 --> 00:45:04,260 So I'm going to insert this rule key, and we'll check it out. 492 00:45:04,260 --> 00:45:09,260 It gets deeper there, and then it gets shallower, and comes back out again. 493 00:45:09,260 --> 00:45:10,260 Yeah. 494 00:45:10,260 --> 00:45:13,260 Right. That's fascinating. 495 00:45:13,260 --> 00:45:16,260 And anything. 496 00:45:16,260 --> 00:45:27,260 Well, with this feature and all the other features that surround us, I am totally convinced that this platform was designed to hold something else. 497 00:45:27,260 --> 00:45:30,260 And then lock it into position. 498 00:45:30,260 --> 00:45:43,260 Because tightening, you know, just this feature alone indicates that they were placing something on there. 499 00:45:43,260 --> 00:45:48,260 And because otherwise, why have it? 500 00:45:49,260 --> 00:45:59,260 I mean, this is a pretty sophisticated and modern engineering way to fit giant blocks or even some kind of machinery or something, right? 501 00:45:59,260 --> 00:46:03,260 Well, it's not sophisticated or even modern. 502 00:46:03,260 --> 00:46:11,260 Modern by our terms, ever since manufacturing first started, it's a common feature. 503 00:46:11,260 --> 00:46:16,260 They use it to attach objects to shafts. 504 00:46:16,260 --> 00:46:21,260 They will cut something like that and then drive a screw in and hold it together. 505 00:46:21,260 --> 00:46:30,260 And of course, there would be, like, say, four of these around this circular thing to attach things. 506 00:46:30,260 --> 00:46:41,260 But then with the other features that indicate that something actually was dropped on here, it all begins to make more sense now. 507 00:46:41,260 --> 00:46:48,260 And do you think that this was also probably cut with like a circular saw, some like, you know, machine tool? 508 00:46:48,260 --> 00:46:55,260 Well, yeah, I mean, I would say with the weight of evidence throughout Egypt, obviously, they were using machine tools. 509 00:46:55,260 --> 00:47:00,260 But this could have been cut with anything, you know, it's very, very simple feature. 510 00:47:00,260 --> 00:47:03,260 And there's not much material to remove there. 511 00:47:03,260 --> 00:47:05,260 OK, sure. 512 00:47:05,260 --> 00:47:10,260 And look at this one here, David. 513 00:47:10,260 --> 00:47:11,260 How did it get here?

707 01:05:39,260 --> 01:05:43,260 So they built the Great Pyramid and they harnessed some of that energy. 708 01:05:43,260 --> 01:05:50,260 I wanted to explore the subject of the Great Pyramid being some sort of giant machine. 709 01:05:50,260 --> 01:05:55,260 So I arranged to meet with British engineer Christopher Don in Cairo. 710 01:05:55,260 --> 01:06:11,260 The first thing I did was take him to Giza where he could explain to me his theory of the Giza power plant. 711 01:06:11,260 --> 01:06:17,260 In the Giza power plant, I questioned the theory whether the pyramids were actually tombs. 712 01:06:17,260 --> 01:06:26,260 After conducting considerable research, I could not find any evidence that there were any original burials within the pyramids. 713 01:06:26,260 --> 01:06:31,260 Of course, that raises the question, if they were not tombs, what were they used for? 714 01:06:31,260 --> 01:06:38,260 What I did is I examined the Great Pyramid and did a reverse engineering study of it. 715 01:06:38,260 --> 01:06:43,260 What I concluded was that it was actually used to generate energy. 716 01:06:43,260 --> 01:06:48,260 It generated energy in a way that was extremely holistic. 717 01:06:48,260 --> 01:06:53,260 It actually did more than just generate energy. 718 01:06:53,260 --> 01:07:00,260 It relieved the stresses in the earth's plate and it also drove the plate into harmony. 719 01:07:00,260 --> 01:07:05,260 That harmony then possibly could have affected the people in the area, 720 01:07:06,260 --> 01:07:15,260 creating an environment, an acoustic environment that was peaceful and extremely beneficial to their health. 721 01:07:15,260 --> 01:07:22,260 However, what leads me to that conclusion are the details within the Great Pyramid. 722 01:07:22,260 --> 01:07:29,260 What we have is a series of passageways and chambers and shafts. 723 01:07:30,260 --> 01:07:38,260 It was a study of the dimensions and the geometry of these shafts and chambers 724 01:07:38,260 --> 01:07:44,260 and the residual material that were left inside. 725 01:07:44,260 --> 01:07:50,260 Also, the selection of materials in particular areas. 726 01:07:50,260 --> 01:07:56,260 In the Great Pyramid, we have a descending passage that goes down to a bedrock chamber, 727 01:07:56,260 --> 01:08:00,260 about 350 feet from the opening. 728 01:08:00,260 --> 01:08:05,260 Of course, we could talk about the precision of the Great Pyramid and the precision is considerable. 729 01:08:05,260 --> 01:08:12,260 That passageway itself was surveyed by William Flinders Petrie in the 1880s. 730 01:08:12,260 --> 01:08:20,260 He determined through his measures that the passageway was straight in the constructed portion 731 01:08:20,260 --> 01:08:24,260 to within 20 thousandths of an inch, that's the thickness of a thumbnail, 732 01:08:24,260 --> 01:08:30,260 over the entire length of the chamber, the full 350 feet, it only varied a quarter of an inch. 733 01:08:30,260 --> 01:08:32,260 That is an amazing precision. 734 01:08:32,260 --> 01:08:46,260 The subchamber itself, I am now coming to realize, was actually using hydraulics to cause a pulse generator. 735 01:08:46,260 --> 01:08:51,260 It actually generated a pulse that drove the entire pyramid into harmony. 736 01:08:51,260 --> 01:08:56,260 Of course, moving up into the pyramid, we have the ascending passage 737 01:08:56,260 --> 01:09:04,260 and many unusual features that are found there, such as the granite stone plugs at the end of the passageway. 738 01:09:04,260 --> 01:09:10,260 They don't seem to have any real construction purpose, 739 01:09:10,260 --> 01:09:18,260 while the theory is that they were there to prevent tomb robbers from entering the center of the pyramid. 740 01:09:18,260 --> 01:09:21,260 Really, all they did was attract attention. 741 01:09:21,260 --> 01:09:28,260 Alma Moon, when he chiseled into the Great Pyramid in 812 AD, 742 01:09:28,260 --> 01:09:36,260 did so when he identified those granite plugs and determined that perhaps something may lie behind them. 743 01:09:36,260 --> 01:09:39,260 Sure enough, what lay behind them was a shaft. 744 01:09:39,260 --> 01:09:46,260 He chiseled the limestone around them and a shaft straight up into the heart of the Great Pyramid. 745 01:09:46,260 --> 01:09:52,260 Coming to the end of that small shaft is what they call a grand gallery. 746 01:09:52,260 --> 01:09:57,260 The grand gallery is considered to be an architectural masterpiece. 747 01:09:57,260 --> 01:10:08,260 It consists of cobbled layers, seven cobbled layers, where the gallery actually gets smaller towards the top. 748 01:10:09,260 --> 01:10:15,260 Also, along the side of the grand gallery, we have ramps. 749 01:10:15,260 --> 01:10:23,260 Into the ramps are cut these notches. These notches are cut vertically into the ramps. 750 01:10:23,260 --> 01:10:29,260 There are 27 pairs of these notches. 751 01:10:29,260 --> 01:10:36,260 As you go along the length of the gallery, you come to what has been called the Great Step. 752 01:10:36,260 --> 01:10:45,260 Climbing up the step, you have a horizontal passage, and then through the horizontal passage, a small antechamber. 753 01:10:45,260 --> 01:10:50,260 Then again, another small passage into the King's Chamber. 754 01:10:50,260 --> 01:10:55,260 The King's Chamber complex is the heart of the power plant. 755 01:10:55,260 --> 01:11:04,260 It is constructed solely of granite. It is tuned to a high degree to resonate at 440. 756 01:11:04,260 --> 01:11:13,260 It also emits naturally an F-sharp chord, and this was detected by an acoustic engineer named Tom Danley in 1995. 757 01:11:13,260 --> 01:11:18,260 The chamber is free-standing within the heart of the pyramid. 758 01:11:18,260 --> 01:11:24,260 It is not connected to the core blocks and is free to resonate and vibrate at will. 759 01:11:24,260 --> 01:11:30,260 Overlying the King's Chamber, we have five layers of granite beams. 760 01:11:30,260 --> 01:11:36,260 These granite beams, I speculated in my book, are actually resonating beams. 761 01:11:36,260 --> 01:11:45,260 They are unusually cut. They're cut square and flat on three sides, but the top side is very rough. 762 01:11:45,260 --> 01:11:53,260 The roughness on the top side, I believe, was done in order to tune the beams. 763 01:11:53,260 --> 01:12:17,140 The 764 01:12:17,140 --> 01:12:25,140 chamber, we have a box. I call a box, conventionally it's called a sarcophagus. 765 01:12:25,140 --> 01:12:38,140 However, there have been no mummies, original burials found in any pyramid, and there was nothing found in the Great Pyramid, even when Al Mamoun entered in 812 AD. 766 01:12:38,140 --> 01:12:43,140 So the question is, what were these for? 767 01:12:43,140 --> 01:12:50,140 Also in the chamber are two shafts that lead to the outside of the pyramid on angles. 768 01:12:50,140 --> 01:13:00,140 These shafts, in the northern shaft, they have a 4.8 by 8.4 dimension. 769 01:13:00,140 --> 01:13:08,140 That is suitable for a waveguide in a microwave region, a hydrogen waveguide. 770 01:13:08,140 --> 01:13:14,140 In the southern shaft, the opening is shaped like a horn antenna. 771 01:13:14,140 --> 01:13:25,140 This is quite significant. If you consider that a signal coming into that chamber, if that chamber contained energized hydrogen, 772 01:13:25,140 --> 01:13:34,140 that signal could stimulate the emission of energy, collect that energy, and feed it into the southern shaft. 773 01:13:34,140 --> 01:13:42,140 Other features. Well, we ask the question, if they were using hydrogen, where did they get the hydrogen from? 774 01:13:42,140 --> 01:13:51,140 Well, for that, we go along a very long horizontal passage to what is termed the Queen's Chamber. 775 01:13:51,140 --> 01:13:56,140 In the Queen's Chamber, you have several unusual features. 776 01:13:56,140 --> 01:14:02,140 You have two shafts, similar, but not quite the same. 777 01:14:02,140 --> 01:14:13,140 In the Queen's Chamber, you have a shaft leading from the chamber to the south, and one leading from the chamber to the north. 778 01:14:13,140 --> 01:14:20,140 When early explorers went into the Great Pyramid, they did not detect these shafts. 779 01:14:20,140 --> 01:14:24,140 They wouldn't have known that they were there. 780 01:14:24,140 --> 01:14:37,140 The only reason they were found was because a man in 1872 by the name of Wayman Dixon was in the chamber and detected a crack in the wall. 781 01:14:37,140 --> 01:14:45,140 He pushed a rod through that crack, and he got no resistance on the rod. 782 01:14:45,140 --> 01:14:53,140 So he chiseled away the limestone, and lo and behold, behind that plate was the shafts. 783 01:14:53,140 --> 01:15:03,140 He did the similar thing on the northern face of the chamber, and tapped around and found that there was another shaft there. 784 01:15:03,140 --> 01:15:08,140 Chiseled out the limestone, there it was. These were intentional designs. 785 01:15:08,140 --> 01:15:14,140 They did not cut these shafts and then just put a plug in them at the Queen's Chamber. 786 01:15:14,140 --> 01:15:17,140 They were a part of the original block. 787 01:15:17,140 --> 01:15:23,140 Well, the question is, why? Why did they do that? 788 01:15:23,140 --> 01:15:34,140 In 1993, a German robotics engineer by the name of Rudolf Gansenbrink sent a robot up the southern shaft. 789 01:15:34,140 --> 01:15:41,140 When he got to the end of the shaft, it terminated at what is called a so-called door. 790 01:15:41,140 --> 01:15:48,140 But the question is, was it really a door? And my answer is no, it was not a door. 791 01:15:48,140 --> 01:15:51,140 It was just a plate of limestone. 792 01:15:51,140 --> 01:15:56,140 Through this limestone came two copper fittings. 793 01:15:56,140 --> 01:16:02,140 So these were really mysterious, and why would they put copper fittings at the end of this shaft? 794 01:16:02,140 --> 01:16:07,140 The solution in the Giza Power Plant is that they were actually electrodes, 795 01:16:07,140 --> 01:16:16,140 and determined when the shaft was full of the chemical they were using and mixing to create hydrogen. 796 01:16:16,140 --> 01:16:22,140 Now you might ask, why was the shaft closed at the end? 797 01:16:22,140 --> 01:16:27,140 So we have a shaft that's closed in two places. 798 01:16:27,140 --> 01:16:34,140 Terminated five inches away from the chamber at the bottom and with a plate of limestone at the top. 799 01:16:34,140 --> 01:16:40,140 Certainly it wasn't for the passage of air for people to breathe. 800 01:16:40,140 --> 01:16:49,140 And even though you may ask, why would a mummy or a pharaoh need to breathe if he was dead? 801 01:16:49,140 --> 01:16:54,140 So that was another mysterious question that we had to answer. 802 01:16:54,140 --> 01:17:02,140 So the Giza Power Plant theory actually proposes that both of these shafts contain different chemicals. 803 01:17:02,140 --> 01:17:10,140 A hydrated zinc solution and a diluted hydrochloric acid solution. 804 01:17:10,140 --> 01:17:15,140 These two chemicals, if mixed, would actually boil off hydrogen. 805 01:17:15,140 --> 01:17:25,140 The evidence to support that proposition was found actually on the walls of the shaft and inside the southern shaft. 806 01:17:25,140 --> 01:17:31,140 On the walls of the shaft, early explorers found that they were covered with salt, up to an inch thick. 807 01:17:31,140 --> 01:17:36,140 They subsequently cleaned off the salt, but the salt was there. 808 01:17:36,140 --> 01:17:48,140 And that would be the result of hydrogen gas boiling off and giving up some of the impurities in the gas to the limestone. 809 01:17:51,140 --> 01:17:54,140 So the evidence for hydrogen is there. 810 01:17:55,140 --> 01:18:01,140 The evidence that a liquid was contained in those shafts is very strong. 811 01:18:01,140 --> 01:18:12,140 If you consider that a five inch plate of limestone, a liquid would percolate through it, whereas it would not pass air. 812 01:18:13,140 --> 01:18:16,140 In the east wall is a niche. 813 01:18:16,140 --> 01:18:21,140 The niche is cobbled. I propose that it had an evaporator tower there. 814 01:18:21,140 --> 01:18:30,140 So the chemicals that came into the chamber were actually waked up into this evaporator tower and gave off the hydrogen. 815 01:18:33,140 --> 01:18:36,140 So let's climb along the horizontal passage again. 816 01:18:36,140 --> 01:18:41,140 And we'll go down into, we'll go to the bottom of the Grand Gallery. 817 01:18:41,140 --> 01:18:47,140 The Grand Gallery is 82 inches wide at the bottom and 42 inches wide at the top. 818 01:18:47,140 --> 01:18:49,140 And 28 feet high. 819 01:18:49,140 --> 01:18:52,140 It's quite an impressive masterpiece. 820 01:18:52,140 --> 01:19:02,140 I propose that within the slots, the 27 pair of slots going along the length of the Grand Gallery, were resonators. 821 01:19:02,140 --> 01:19:11,140 A series of resonators that actually coupled with the pyramid drew the vibration and converted it to airborne sound. 822 01:19:13,140 --> 01:19:14,140 At different frequencies. 823 01:19:14,140 --> 01:19:21,140 In other words, at the bottom you would have a larger resonator and stepping up to higher frequencies as you got to the top. 824 01:19:23,140 --> 01:19:29,140 In 1999, I noticed evidence that these resonators actually were there. 825 01:19:29,140 --> 01:19:34,140 And that evidence is on the walls and the ceiling of the Grand Gallery. 826 01:19:34,140 --> 01:19:41,140 Because in the past, in history, there was a disaster, a huge disaster. 827 01:19:41,140 --> 01:19:52,140 And what happened was, I propose that it was either a comet strike or some external force struck the planet. 828 01:19:52,140 --> 01:19:57,140 This caused all this destruction that we find around us. 829 01:19:57,140 --> 01:20:01,140 And what we have talked about as we have gone around the Giza Plateau. 830 01:20:01,140 --> 01:20:07,140 The crack blocks, things thrown and jumbled all over the place. 831 01:20:07,140 --> 01:20:12,140 The signs of a cataclysm many thousands of years ago. 832 01:20:14,140 --> 01:20:21,140 Inside the Great Pyramid, the evidence of that cataclysm is around the King's Chamber and the Grand Gallery. 833 01:20:21,140 --> 01:20:30,140 With the use of hydrogen and also if you have the introduction of oxygen after the casing stones are stripped off. 834 01:20:30,140 --> 01:20:36,140 You would probably have the conditions, the right conditions for that hydrogen to explode. 835 01:20:38,140 --> 01:20:42,140 The evidence is inside the chamber. 836 01:20:42,140 --> 01:20:47,140 The walls were actually pushed out over an inch. 837 01:20:47,140 --> 01:20:54,140 The ceiling beams were pushed up and they were cracked. 838 01:20:54,140 --> 01:21:05,140 So what we had was an explosion, walls were pushed out, the ceiling beams lifted slightly, they fell down and cracked along the south side. 839 01:21:06,140 --> 01:21:15,140 Also in that chamber, the sarcophagus or the granite box is a different color than the rest of the granite. 840 01:21:15,140 --> 01:21:18,140 It is a chocolate brown color. 841 01:21:18,140 --> 01:21:23,140 And I propose that that too was a result of this explosion. 842 01:21:23,140 --> 01:21:33,140 That the granite box, originally a pink, aswan granite, was subject to tremendous forces and heat. 843 01:21:33,140 --> 01:21:42,140 And as a result, it's literally cut like in an oven, changing the color of the granite. 844 01:21:43,140 --> 01:21:56,140 If we go back out through the antechamber and onto the Great Step and if we look at the ceiling of the Grand Gallery, we will see the evidence of that explosion. 845 01:21:57,140 --> 01:22:05,140 The walls of the Grand Gallery have the evidence of a tremendous force, tremendous heat. 846 01:22:05,140 --> 01:22:08,140 And I'm not the first one to notice this. 847 01:22:08,140 --> 01:22:13,140 There have been architects and engineers who have been there and say that the walls are vitrified. 848 01:22:13,140 --> 01:22:17,140 The evidence is there to support the Giza power plant theory. 849 01:22:17,140 --> 01:22:21,140 And also the design of the resonators. 850 01:22:21,140 --> 01:22:26,140 Because on the ceiling you have these scorch marks, very, very deep scorch marks. 851 01:22:26,140 --> 01:22:37,140 The scorch marks weren't very visible until the pyramid was closed for a year and they actually cleaned it. 852 01:22:37,140 --> 01:22:42,140 And those scorch marks then became very, very clear. 853 01:22:42,140 --> 01:22:50,140 And what we have are two scorch marks, two pair, or a pair of scorch marks on both sides. 854 01:22:50,140 --> 01:22:52,140 On the ceiling. 855 01:22:52,140 --> 01:23:04,140 Also along the wall there are scorch marks that form a line, or the destruction seems to, the blast pattern seems to form a line down centered with the slots. 856 01:23:05,140 --> 01:23:07,140 So all this evidence comes together. 857 01:23:08,140 --> 01:23:13,140 But to sum it up, let me explain everything and how it worked. 858 01:23:14,140 --> 01:23:16,140 We start out with energy. 859 01:23:16,140 --> 01:23:18,140 That energy is the energy of the earth. 860 01:23:18,140 --> 01:23:24,140 The air, seismic energy, vibration, feeding through the Great Pyramid. 861 01:23:24,140 --> 01:23:31,140 We collect that energy in the Grand Gallery and convert it to airborne sound. 862 01:23:31,140 --> 01:23:47,140 That sound and the natural design, or the design of the Grand Gallery, is such that any sound generated in the Grand Gallery will focus through that small horizontal passage into the King's Chamber. 863 01:23:48,140 --> 01:23:52,140 There the sound actually builds and accumulates. 864 01:23:52,140 --> 01:23:55,140 It affects the hydrogen in the area. 865 01:23:55,140 --> 01:24:02,140 And then you have a microwave signal coming in from the universe. 866 01:24:02,140 --> 01:24:09,140 The signature of the Big Bang is actually a hydrogen signature. 867 01:24:09,140 --> 01:24:12,140 At 21 centimeters. 868 01:24:13,140 --> 01:24:15,140 So there we have it. 869 01:24:15,140 --> 01:24:30,140 The evidence of a sophisticated, intelligent, brilliant society that created energy not in a way that is harmful to the earth or the people that live on it. 870 01:24:30,140 --> 01:24:36,140 But energy that resonated, that was in harmony with the earth. 871 01:24:36,140 --> 01:24:45,140 Generating the energy, they did it with harmony with the earth and drove the earth into harmony. 872 01:24:45,140 --> 01:24:49,140 We've just scratched the surface though. 873 01:24:49,140 --> 01:24:57,140 I believe there is much more that needs to be found and discovered in Egypt about this lost civilization. 874 01:24:57,140 --> 01:25:00,140 We'll keep looking. 875 01:25:01,140 --> 01:25:10,140 Chris's theory that the pyramids were some sort of power plants tied into the resonance of the earth fascinated me. 876 01:25:10,140 --> 01:25:20,140 I then wanted Chris to show me evidence that there had been some sort of explosion that was associated with the pyramids. 877 01:25:20,140 --> 01:25:36,140 So if the pyramids were coupled oscillators and in this cataclysm, some disaster, the pyramids just vibrated until they shook off all this granite. 878 01:25:36,140 --> 01:25:43,140 Then for the later people who came here, the stones were lying just like this. 879 01:25:43,140 --> 01:25:46,140 Just as we see them now. 880 01:25:46,140 --> 01:25:58,140 And then people were trying to quarry and split these stones, but they were already lying here scattered and tumbled like we see them right now, right? 881 01:25:58,140 --> 01:25:59,140 Exactly. 882 01:25:59,140 --> 01:26:07,140 Part of Chris's theory was that the pyramids on the Giza Plateau were driving the earth into harmony. 883 01:26:07,140 --> 01:26:14,140 So, I mean, in your whole theory, why these small pyramids? They're also just mini big ones? 884 01:26:14,140 --> 01:26:16,140 I mean, to do the same thing? 885 01:26:16,140 --> 01:26:22,140 Yeah, basically resonating at a higher frequency, but still doing the same thing. 886 01:26:22,140 --> 01:26:32,140 And the theory is that what they were doing is they were causing for want of a better term, mini earthquakes. 887 01:26:32,140 --> 01:26:35,140 They were creating mini earthquakes? 888 01:26:35,140 --> 01:26:36,140 Mini earthquakes. 889 01:26:36,140 --> 01:26:38,140 To sort of relieve the stress on the earth? 890 01:26:38,140 --> 01:26:40,140 To relieve the stress of the earth. 891 01:26:40,140 --> 01:26:47,140 And so even today we're now talking about, say, the Cascadia Fault in America. 892 01:26:47,140 --> 01:27:00,140 They're speculating now that if they set off mini earthquakes, then you relieve the stress in the plates as one plate presses against the other. 893 01:27:00,140 --> 01:27:10,140 Right now the friction takes over and they build up stress, build up stress, build up stress, and suddenly you've got a 9.0 earthquake. 894 01:27:10,140 --> 01:27:11,140 Okay. 895 01:27:11,140 --> 01:27:12,140 Okay. 896 01:27:12,140 --> 01:27:14,140 And if you can relieve that, but with smaller earthquakes? 897 01:27:14,140 --> 01:27:22,140 If you can relieve that, then you're going click, click, click, mini earthquakes. 898 01:27:22,140 --> 01:27:31,140 Vibration, which actually allows the plates to slide smoothly over each other rather than building up stress. 899 01:27:31,140 --> 01:27:47,140 But in your whole theory of like the Great Pyramid having a maser energy in it, but are these also have some chemical that's put in them or are they just a pure geometric form on the plateau? 900 01:27:47,140 --> 01:27:50,140 Yeah, well the Great Pyramid is different. 901 01:27:50,140 --> 01:27:58,140 And really just the generation of energy is not the prime purpose for the pyramids. 902 01:27:58,140 --> 01:28:12,140 The prime purpose for the pyramids, in my opinion, was to actually create harmony, to drive the planet into harmony and to relieve the stresses of the earth's plates. 903 01:28:12,140 --> 01:28:21,140 Now if you're able to do that, if we could do that, you know, we can generate power for decades, right? 904 01:28:21,140 --> 01:28:24,140 Just from the earth's, the stress of the earth's crust. 905 01:28:24,140 --> 01:28:25,140 Yeah. 906 01:28:25,140 --> 01:28:31,140 The point I'm trying to make, David, is in our society, electricity is king. 907 01:28:31,140 --> 01:28:35,140 Power, energy, we use it for many, many purposes. 908 01:28:35,140 --> 01:28:39,140 And we can sustain a civilization for so long. 909 01:28:39,140 --> 01:28:48,140 And all that, that whole civilization can be wiped out by an earthquake, by a huge uplift in the earth's crust. 910 01:28:48,140 --> 01:28:53,140 Can just totally destroy everything, billions and billions of dollars. 911 01:28:53,140 --> 01:29:04,140 Okay, yeah, right, just the tectonic plate shift that we can't control it now, but if we could control it, we could harness power and these pyramids could do that. 912 01:29:04,140 --> 01:29:08,140 Bingo, you got it, that's it. That's what they were for. 913 01:29:08,140 --> 01:29:10,140 Fascinating, fascinating. 914 01:29:10,140 --> 01:29:24,140 And so you go from, you not only have the smaller pyramids, or the larger pyramids, but you have the different frequencies to match with different frequencies in the earth. 915 01:29:24,140 --> 01:29:30,140 Because the earth is a jumble of frequencies. They detected the hum of the earth in 1998. 916 01:29:31,140 --> 01:29:43,140 And the hum is very, very, really sub-sub frequencies with a whole jumble of different frequencies. 917 01:29:43,140 --> 01:29:50,140 So, you know, the Great Pyramid resonates still in the King's Chamber to 440. 918 01:29:50,140 --> 01:29:56,140 It resonates to an F-sharp chord, as Tom Danley detected in 1995. 919 01:29:56,140 --> 01:29:57,140 Okay. 920 01:29:57,140 --> 01:30:05,140 And my theory is that that energy is still being channeled through the pyramid. 921 01:30:05,140 --> 01:30:06,140 Through the pyramid, right. 922 01:30:06,140 --> 01:30:14,140 And of course the King's Chamber is a structure that's freestanding within the center of the pyramid. 923 01:30:14,140 --> 01:30:19,140 It's not dampened by the walls, it's not connected to the core masonry. 924 01:30:19,140 --> 01:30:25,140 The floor is not dampened because it's suspended on nodes. 925 01:30:25,140 --> 01:30:31,140 The upper relieving chambers, there are five layers of them. Why? 926 01:30:31,140 --> 01:30:32,140 Why? Right, right. 927 01:30:32,140 --> 01:30:37,140 And the whole purpose is harmonics and resonance. 928 01:30:38,140 --> 01:30:44,140 So what we have is a progression. And these were important for the relieving of the earth's stress. 929 01:30:44,140 --> 01:30:47,140 And so was the Great Pyramid. 930 01:30:48,140 --> 01:30:57,140 However, obviously they reached a point where they said, well, we've got all this energy coming through these things, why don't we harness it? 931 01:30:57,140 --> 01:31:01,140 So they built the Great Pyramid and they harnessed some of that energy. 932 01:31:01,140 --> 01:31:06,140 Join us on our next episode where we go to Peru to search for ancient technology. 933 01:32:31,140 --> 01:32:36,140 Thank you for watching!
