Anatomy of the Pyramids: Hidden Interior Structure Revealed

[@cattheminion]

This is the most interesting chunk of information that I've heard about the pyramids in quite a while.

[@Auxik]

It's so fascinating how much stuff is there that's rarely ever even been discussed on Discovery or History.

[@takiman1]

Snakes. You really need to do timestamps. On that note, I think you guys have the most sober attitude in this sphere of topics. Excellent work guys

[@AtticusKiser]

Thank you guys for building and sharing this. Such a thought-provoking exploration on the What. It's a fascinating time for this research, with Geoffrey Drumm (Land of Chem) concurrently studying the Why (presents well-developed hypothesis focusing on Pyramids having an ancient alchemic function in chemical production), and then people like Billy Carson studying the How (origin of the technology based off of ancient texts). It just sort of feels like the pieces are finally coming together thanks to the passionate and hard-working few. Imagine a roundtable with all of you guys in the same room bringing these different fields of study together. Get Ben, Randall Carlson and Chris Dunn in there, too. Oh and most importantly I'ma need some of that Montepulciano!

[@MrMarvell]

I've been to Egypt 3 times and thought that would be enough, but whenever I watch you guys and Bens videos it just makes me want to book another trip there, nowhere else like it.

[@Mama_esta_presa]

Those half flattened stones in combination with the nubs are mind blowing, it's the first time I see the combination and wonder if the combined presence has been used to analyze the construction method. Thanks!

[@mistym4411]

Nothing like a Snake Bros podcast drop to top off the evening. Thanks guys, been waiting for this one

[@DeathsPit00]

One hell of a presentation, Kyle. At the end I just kept thinking to myself," I wonder if Chris Dunn still listens because he would probably like this." I look forward to hearing about how the actual show went.

[@cadeezra315]

Wow, that was very well-researched. Fantastic job, guys!

[@mikelee9886]

I'm gonna have to watch this more than once. I think this presentation will be the good jumping off point for a legit, fully polished presentation in the future. this one was great, but you could formalize it really well, script it, and make it into something you'd present at like the cosmic summit or a standalone video.

[@ArchMage1]

This presentation reminds me a lot of Chuck who had the cfapps channel. He had the exact same revelations about the pyramids and those different well shafts and went over hundreds of sites on his channel, claiming that they we're all "unfinished" pyramids like you are saying. He's got a playlist on his channel where he shows them off on google earth and it could be a good repository if you guys are interested in finding more that you've perhaps not seen before.

[@russelllyne5298]

Awesome presentation Kyle

[@timreed-dq3nx]

Drinking an entire bottle of wine makes this episode even more interesting. Get Randall Carlson drunk the next time you have him on !

[@jetpetty1613]

Wow - observations are top tier! Ive read about the Egyptian pyramids all my life. I didnt realize anything about these "casing stones" existing until Randall Carlson mentioned how the pyramid is measured.

[@LucidityEngine]

Enjoying the content. This is a great watch so far, I'm halfway through. Thanks for the hard work -- can't wait to join.. oh, what was it.. SnakeForce? 😊 I think I saw that lol. I'll be joining soon. 🤟

[@stephw.6539]

Amazing! Full of great information, I really enjoy how you cover other sites. Thank you 🙂

[@profthoth2548]

Caught you on Randalls, you guys keep rocking...

[@clamsoup]

Alright Snakes! It's bedtime in Alaska, and this is where my REM will be popping! Much better than missing children for my eyelid movie screen.

[@claybowlproductions]

LOL

[@SkintAlot]

What a great presentation, loved it.

[@dpop8378]

Like your presentation. Maybe the first thing to consider is what historical time those were built. Because, it is one thing to build something in a desert, and completely different if this wasn't a desert but a thriving place with rivers, mountains, flora, and fauna much greater than now.

[@gpags76]

what an excellent deep dive into pyramid construction. Fascinating stuff.

[@gorbalsboy]

I can see why the course thicknesses vary from top to bottom, larger at base to take greater weight then tapering off, then being repeated multiple times , perhaps the idea was to break the weight distribution into multiples instead of a more linear reduction in weight the ones that differ from the decline weight variation certainly look interesting, the superstructure being vertical would reduce the amount of work required on each block compared to the angled faces on the casing blocks. The slimmer courses would certainly make them easier to work into more multiple angle faces(tunnels, rooms, voids??) which in turn would reduce work time overall showing the genius of the architect(s) yet again, great stuff Kyle😊

[@MichealMireles]

Nice Man you nailed it! Thanks for sharing your presentation!!

[@TheEarl777]

This is such a great review of all the things that fascinate me the most I can’t thank you guys enough. Excellent excellent work. I agree with you both entirely

[@dpost1268]

wow... there is so much information in this video... thanks guys great video

[@DavidM-be6mu]

Excellent presentation. You're really on to something. It really gives the whole topic (the pyramids) a breath of fresh air. Keep digging!

[@thisiswherestoriesgrow]

Probably the most original presentation on pyramids I've seen in years. Awesome Kyle, killing it! Snykes!

[@Dz-go3gu]

Brothersssss video quality's looking awesome. Great episode as always 👌

[@peathead4450]

Excellent presentation and thought processes. Thanks for sharing

[@SecretAgentSuperDragon]

Really excellent footage and pictures guys, some of the best I've seen. I really enjoy your channel a lot, thank you!

[@larkljc]

🐍 nice work! I don’t know how we will ever know for sure the how and why but it’s fun to speculate. And wonder. More please!! 😊

[@CarlShine-j1m]

Wow this has given me a whole new outlook!!!the research into this must have been massive and eye opening.cheers guys,long time fan carl

[@daisymay2369]

Pyramids and Snakes!!!

[@emcarnahan]

Nothing better ☺️✨

[@joanberkwitz2662]

Fascinating!! Thank you!! The subterranean chamber was MUCH older and was for a different purpose. They didn’t “finish” it because they venerated it.

[@jtodd00]

The Stick to Pyramids crowd is gonna love this one

[@bobule]

Great presentation. So much wonder.

[@el_wumberino]

Great presentation, gentlemen. Thank you very much.

[@bananabanjo]

Sweet prezo. Awesome work. (I made a cameo too!) :)

[@dominusdelecti7561]

great information regarding the courses.

[@Boilerking76123]

Hanging out with Marty too much. “ We’ll Get in to that later”. Bugging Marty every episode finally paid off with him giving an answer. “ Yes”

[@Nainogero]

Simply stunning and sophisticated slithery slideshow, snakes!

[@yetti4life974]

Well done Kyle! Well done my boy!

[@robcircaaustin]

Yo Russ. When Kyle said then someone decide to just make it a pyramid. You said ya something like, now one else could put anything on top of it. Gold

[@loobrad]

Great presentation. I listened to the podcast first and couldn’t wait to see Gas Station Pyramids!!, worth the wait!!

[@alryan8609]

This is just fascinating, so many questions on HOW ! Excellent video !!!

[@ABN_TNKR]

nothing like a saturday evening snake bros drop!

[@dcrog69]

Most Excellent presentation Kyle.

[@gregbrown5473]

Well done Kyle this presentation really opens up the discussion on how the different styles of pyramids we see today are related , it would be awesome to be able to scan the grate pyramid to determent if its super structure is the same as the others . Quite possibly could be as I do remember crawling around in the robbers area off of the Queens chamber thinking the structure seems different, love ya's work Snakes 🙂🤙🐍🐍🐍

[@willywill3570]

this is one extremely fascinating video yall put out.

[@andymcculloch9199]

Excellent assessment of the pyramids and interesting ideas on how there may be different phases.

For the citation mismatch mentionned around 1:05:00, make sure the edition you are using and the one listed in the bibliography of man citing are the same. Idk if it was translated of not but that might explain the word search function to not yield anything (also assuming the file youre using is indeed word searchable and not just a photocopy)

[@kalmao9131]

loved the presentation thanks for that

[@andymccracken4046]

This is a great video and this is the kind of proper research that needs to be done if we are ever going to find out what was really happening, and when. I can give you a suggestion as to what the underground granite boxes were for, and a reference to Hancock's book "The Sign and the Seal", which is worth reading. Hancock floats the idea that the Ark of the Covenant was a nuclear powered stone-cutting device that Moses brought out of Egypt, and was mainly used as a weapon. I am a chemistry graduate but also know a useful amount of physics, and I think the idea is feasible, and there is a lot of circumstantial evidence presented. Such as, the Bible says the tablets that Moses had to prepare, glowed, it was an extreme bio-hazard, and it was to be kept in a granite chamber in the Temple. Happy to look up more details if anyone is interested.

[@Les537]

IMO, casing comes before fill. You build the step pyramid, then you lay a casing frame, fill it in with rough blocks, then you lay the next casing frame and fill it in with coarse blocks - repeat.

[@benmurphy9328]

I don’t know how or why but the skill level of masonry blows my mind

Abu Rawash, I loved the concave granite saw cut. That was incredible. Such great memories from Feb "24. Its wild to think that Abu Rawash was dismantled. Awesome graphic at 1:34. Fascinating commentary on Petrie's "courses," I love watching you guys, since you keep teaching us. Wow the Persian tunnel at 1:36!!! You guys, Ben, and Yousef are legends!!! I hope you guys can interview Doug McKenzie.

[@MJIZZEL]

No matter what subject, Kyle seems to notice things that no one else does. Love his insights.

[@scully2625]

I find kyle to be not following along very well for most topics and just makes jokes.

[@MJIZZEL]

@@scully2625well that’s a statement from either a newcomer or a casual. Kyle makes jokes, yes, but notices things others don’t. He does this often.

[@johnmckinney9324]

That's smart. IMO you're onto something. Now apply that to the void and see if that makes anything make sense. The course layers thing. Keep up your brand of great work. I like the way y'all think.

[@elusive323]

Great show bros.

[@bradschoeck1526]

Phenomenally great info guys. I love it! Regardless of the previous talking of smack. -guy in the comments section.

[@veraciousreasoning863]

34:48 minutes in you can see that the limestone tiles and the casing stones have similar bevels. It seems they beveled the bottom casing stones so the tile can slide under and create a tighter seam or add support or something.

[@gagandhaliwal1453]

Started watching your snakes pod from the beginning. On episode 46 now and long ways to go 😂😂. Had to stop to watch this episode as I'm absolutely obsessed with the pyramids mystery. Thanks snakes bros for your immersive work as always. 😊

[@andrewmatsueda7126]

Have you heard of Geoffrey Drumms (LAND OF CHEM) hypothesis on the function of all the pyramids on the Giza plateau as well as the function of all the stone circle henges in the UK? He has the most comprehensive, in depth, and well thought out-out explanation of how all these megalithic structures functioned and designed similarly.

[@Big-B-of-bfd]

Drone imagery would of made this top tier

[@BrothersOfTheSerpent]

Agreed! Tough to get a drone into Egypt tho

[@Big-B-of-bfd]

​​@@BrothersOfTheSerpent we wont tell anyone 🤫 ..... lol

[@Momo-xs8mo]

Need more explanation on the story of how Petrie found the entrance based on the course thickness of the kings chamber. It looks to me like none of the courses in the kings chamber are near the size of the entrance course

[@Dz-go3gu]

this is actually very important work youre doing, this is really comprehensive the way you put it together. Do you think maybe that's how they got most of the giant boxes & blocks down into the inner structure of the pyramids? They brought them down while the stairway's were trenched out, before they filled them back in.

[@LukeGrimm]

That wa fun guys, nice work. Hope the wine was righteous. you might add a bit about the water table in the area and the long history of wells. A water source would be a reason to build a monument.

[@Jonas-si3gb]

Interesting stuff

[@Vinnnyyy]

Hey hey! Wait for me. Now I'm done pouring my drink, ok guys, CHEERS!

[@StringTheory-nl7gr]

These structures were probably built 160,000 years ago.

[@trinidad111]

Can I ask how you arrived at that number?

[@grantsimko]

Guys, the cut in the stone around 30:30 is called a plumb cut, not a bevel

[@PneumanaBreathwork]

Just went to Egypt for my first time and I’m convinced that the limestone casing stones were added at a later date. There is a lot of evidence to make this case if anyone is curious.

[@MrPenguln]

good work boys

[@crypticscripts]

If we are able to use Petrie's measurements of course block thickness regarding course 19, and also the course that is highlighted in this video, (which lies just above the 'Queens Chamber,') are we then to assume that we might find a correlation with course thickness in relation to the 'Hidden Void,' as described by the SCAN Pyramids project from a few years ago. It seems to me that it may be possible, by simple mathematics, to identify irregularities within the body of the Pyramid, by identifying correlations or differences with course depths, with the course levels on the outside of the pyramid. I imagine that the facing stones would be irrelevant in this regard, as they are , for the most part, aesthetic. The 'Meat and potatoes' are in the course blocks, and may be increasingly important as we begin to understand them. For example, If we look at 57:18 in this presentation, we can see the blue line which is positioned upon the 'Queens' Chamber. If you count 13 levels upward from this position, you will find that the next 13 levels are roughly the same height, possibly indicating the horizontal placement for the 'Hidden Void.' I could, as usual be barking up the wrong Baobab Tree, but I am trying to work out a few thought experiments, to see if any of it sticks!! Any comments that you may have will be very much appreciated......

[@79Cody440]

@105:10 Petrie says there is a correlation between the Kings chamber bottom course height and the vertical height of the pyramid entrance. Douglas isnt referring to that when he mentions Petrie. I think he means there is no correlation between which course level the entrances of the queen and kings chambers occur and which course level the thicker courses occur. I think thats whats he referring to anyway.

[@austinlyons2558]

So do this mean that the casing stones were in place and then the angle was worked? And did they do this one course at a time as they went up or was it done after the whole thing was complete? So fascinating.

[@rchaddock]

Is there a way to put the stones back in their original place digitally using scans? Like a giant jigsaw puzzle

[@jeffbarta6276]

great guys !!!!!

[@allentapay3950]

See all this, and your thoughts make sense. Yet when you see the precision, the size of the blocks , it had to be a high civilization. The geometry, Earth’s circumference, everything built in, it has to be someone advanced. And OLD!!!!! Incredibly old. Loved the presentation. Almost met you fellows last February. Scared off by actions to the east

[@bwaynesilva]

To measure course thicknesses one could use a drone with LIDAR (or other tool) and run it up and down each side. I would guess that the Egyptologists would all for that.

[@LivingSpiritDesign]

Can you look around Cairo and find the casing stones in other buildings?

[@dcrog69]

Kyle definitely deserves some atta boys for this presentation.

[@ThaUnseenTruth]

How to reconcile the rough-cut core stones, with the flat-cut casing stones? Was there a gap or cavity between the core and casing stones? Or, were they hermetically fitted, joined, or sealed without mortar, and without any gap between the core and casing stones?...

[@sanishalom5817]

Excellent

[@AncientAdvancedCiv]

if granite is cut in compound angles and forming potatoe chip surfaces to match the limestone, (on Khafre), and we know it would be far more easy to simply cut the limestone, this counts as yet another example of stone work that appears to have benefitted from stone softening, (unless what we're witnessing is the honoring of the original worn stone from extreme antiquity of the original limestone, and the granite was an addition and repair).

[@SmallWonda]

Looking forward to Kyle's interpretation of All Things Pyramid. I wonder if you figure out how or why these things were never finished - was it scope-creep gone mad??? The wine with goblets looked very enticing - even to a non-drinker @ the bottom of the world! Perhaps y'all could reveal a little more of the nose and bouquet -is it rustic Texas or refined vintage?? Cheers Snakes!!

I know it cant be healthy on how much it really pisses me off knowing I will never get to see the Great Pyramid fully cased and complete in all its glory! Anyone else have this obsession?

[@tahoejoe109]

Man it pisses me off that the arabs that currently inhabit Egypt are such poor stewards of these glorious sites. These treasures deserve so much better care and investigation, the only reason that modern day egyptians aren’t still using these sites as quarries is because tourism is more profitable

[@79Cody440]

​@tahoejoe109 yeah I wasn't going to bring that up the myself.... but.... since you did, the Great Pyramid kept its casing stones intact for roughly what ~3,800 years? Made it through all dynastic egypt, the Greeks and the Romans, but almost immediately after the Arabs get it Al Mamun robs it and a few hundreds years later they strip all but 10 or 15 of the 150,000+ beautiful and protective casing blocks from it. Plus stripping the casing stones surely shortened it's life span by thousands of years. I just cant understand how anyone could have looked up at it complete and still decide to destroy it. That's insane.

[@tahoejoe109]

Ancient egyptian architecture is actually an offense to the mohammedan, they understand intuitively that these structures could only have been built by a civilization higher than their own therefore implying that they must have worshipped a more powerful god. It is difficult for a western person to imagine thinking of things in such a childish way but that is literally their thought process
