[@Homeboy969]

to all the people who say its fake: OF COURSE IT IS. theres no way they wouldve stranded themselves on an island... its called mythbusters not survival-busters. they wanted to test if a duct tape boat could get off a shore, not survive an actual marronage. the scripting of the island-escape was just for fun and games, not to lie.

[@wresk6054]

A kite wouldn’t be able to pull them counting bc there weight and air flow and how small it is a sail would work better but not needed

[@nelsonta00]

You would need something that is akin to a parachute to catch wind, plus duct tape is kinda heavy so you would need to structure a mast like sail boats to be really effective.

[@ElxCriiO]

Just make a sail with duct tape

I want a Mythbuster "How much would it cost to build the Great Pyramid" in today Economy. Not just stack the enormous rocks perfectly, but also quarry them from Far Away, cut them into shape, then place them perfectly and end up with an exact replica? I honestly don't think it can be done, even with todays technology. If it could be done it would cost close to a Trillion dollars to build I'd guess. Even then I doubt it would be as perfect.

[@Monsiemage]

I've talked about this to people at work It's so funny how fast scientist speculate how it was built. "Slaves" comes up as the best answer. I'm starting to think they would had ran out of every slave they had a some point. They technology they "had" makes it nearly impossible. The architecture they used is impressive by current day standards, the pyramids are 8 sided however only when you look at them from a airplane. The nearest rock quarry was 20 miles away, so you're telling me these giant slabs were carried 20 miles? Even if the rock was right there people would begin destroying their body's to the point that they were useless in two years time. That's extremely heavy labor the tops appear that the only way they could had actually been made with use of a crane, which they give a very poor diagram of. People won't actually talk about them, the insides, how things are still hidden in the bottom floors no one knows about the pure thought. They were not made by the kinds of people they say they were, they were made by people who had technology, it's really the only real way of thinking.
