00:00High above the Giza Plateau
00:03stands one of Egypt's most enigmatic ancient sites.
00:07There is a mystery here,
00:09a huge mystery to unravel within the ruins of Abu Roash.
00:15Some say these stone blocks
00:16once belonged to one of the world's greatest architectural wonders.
00:21Abu Roash would have been cased in electrum or gold,
00:25so when the sun hit it, it would really be quite a dramatic sight.
00:28And many believe this lost pyramid was built more than 12,000 years ago.
00:35This corresponds to a time in ancient Egypt called Zep-Tepi,
00:40when the so-called gods were living amongst us mortals.
00:46Do the ruins of Abu Roash have a connection to extraterrestrials?
00:52This mystery of the Abu Roash pyramid
00:55could indicate that the entire Giza Plateau
00:58was built before the history of mankind.
01:18Cairo, Egypt.
01:20On the outskirts of this bustling metropolis,
01:23rising from a plateau on the west bank of the Nile River,
01:27stand what many consider to be the three most sophisticated
01:32and mysterious monuments ever built.
01:35They are the pyramids of Giza.
01:38There are so many ancient Egyptian pyramids in Egypt,
01:41but some of them have always really puzzled us.
01:44When you think of ancient Egypt today,
01:46you think of the three pyramids of Giza.
01:48That iconic picture.
01:52Every pyramid is a perfect mathematical equation.
01:58Geometrically perfect, physics-wise perfect.
02:04Till today, we are so puzzled by how they built the Great Pyramids of Giza.
02:11Egyptologists say the Great Pyramid and the other pyramids on the plateau at Giza
02:17were created around 2500 to 2600 BC for the kings of the fourth dynasty.
02:26This was Khufu, Khafre and Menkara.
02:31And it was their innovation that built these incredible monuments
02:36that remain to this day.
02:38The Giza pyramids are slightly smaller today due to erosion.
02:43But when it was built, the smallest of the pyramids,
02:47the Pyramid of Menkara, measured 335 feet long,
02:53343 feet wide and stood 213 feet high.
02:59In the middle of the complex,
03:01the magnificent Pyramid of Khafre rose 448 feet above the plateau
03:07and is the only structure to retain some of its original limestone casing.
03:14And the Great Pyramid stood an astounding 480 feet tall
03:19and covered 13 acres or nearly 10 football fields.
03:24The Great Pyramid of Giza is a magnificent structure
03:29that took about 30 years to be built
03:32and is a marvel of architecture.
03:35Every block was five tons
03:38and there's about one million of them
03:40to create a perfect pyramid shape
03:43that stood for over 4,000 years.
03:47And we believe that with all the technology we have today,
03:51we still wouldn't be able to recreate it.
03:53Inside the Great Pyramid are a number of fascinating chambers and corridors,
04:01like the Grand Gallery, this towering stairway
04:06that goes up into the so-called King's Chamber.
04:10It is incredibly sophisticated in every respect.
04:18The three pyramids are part of the sprawling 400-acre Giza Necropolis
04:24that also includes the Great Sphinx, a number of cemeteries, and a workers' village.
04:31While the Giza Necropolis is considered by many
04:34to be the most spectacular archaeological site in the world,
04:39there are hundreds of incredible structures, including more than 130 pyramids,
04:45that were built during Egypt's 3,000-year civilization.
04:50Egypt has an incredibly long and rich history.
04:53I mean, even when, say, by the time Cleopatra lived,
04:58Egyptian history was already 3,000 years old.
05:03Egypt has persisted in its popularity through ancient times into the modern era
05:09because they used stone to build.
05:13The Mesopotamians generally just used mud brick, even for their temples.
05:18But Egyptian pyramids were made out of stone, which was for eternity.
05:24Ancient Egyptians knew exactly about their history, and they documented it.
05:30For example, when King Tut showed up to look at the pyramids, he was a tourist,
05:39and the pyramids were standing already for at least 1,000 years.
05:49According to mainstream historians, ancient Egyptian civilization began over 5,000 years ago
05:56and flourished until 30 BC, when the forces of Queen Cleopatra and Mark Antony were defeated by the Roman military.
06:06By the time European explorers arrived in Egypt in the late 1700s,
06:12many of its monuments had literally been overcome by the sands of time.
06:17In 1798, Napoleon Bonaparte, along with his army of savants, documented the wonders of ancient Egypt.
06:25They published a book called The Description of Egypt that became massively popular and ignited interest in Egypt.
06:34Napoleon had come into Egypt and had publicized how spectacular it was.
06:40And when we cut to the year 1850, the world is going through a huge explosion of obsession with Egypt.
06:50French artists had come and drawn the monuments.
06:54Engravings of Egypt were sold all across Europe.
06:58People were fascinated with what was happening in Egypt.
07:03There were people increasingly interested in the culture of the ancient Egyptians.
07:09This was a time when Egyptology really started to come into being.
07:14And in fact, in about 1850, 1851, that's when the word Egyptology was coined.
07:22Champollion had just translated the hieroglyphics from the Rosetta Stone just 30 years before.
07:28And people have high expectations that new discoveries are going to be made,
07:33that reputations are going to be made.
07:35Once Western archaeologists became aware of the treasures waiting to be found in Egypt,
07:41they descended upon the Giza Plateau.
07:44It was soon declared that the three pyramids were built more than 4,000 years ago.
07:50As tombs for the pharaohs of Egypt's fourth dynasty.
07:55And archaeologists concluded that the ancient Egyptians built the enormous structures by sheer manpower.
08:01Moving huge stones from a quarry as dragging and lifting them into place.
08:07But ancient astronaut theorists contend that this explanation seems highly unlikely.
08:13And is contradicted by the Egyptians' own writings.
08:18According to the great majority of mainstream archaeologists, pyramids are not a mystery.
08:26Because they say, oh, how hard is it for people to stack rocks on top of each other?
08:34But there are more questions than answers because the pyramids are not just rocks piled on top of each other.
08:43They're highly sophisticated engineering feats.
08:47That, from an engineering standpoint, our ancestors at that time should have not been able to do that, yet they
08:56did.
08:58The ancient Egyptians say that the knowledge with which to build the pyramids was given to them by our celestial
09:08teachers.
09:09The so-called guardians of the sky.
09:13Could it be that the pyramids of Giza are physical evidence of an extraterrestrial presence on earth?
09:21And if so, what purpose did they serve?
09:26Perhaps clues can be found by examining mysterious megalithic ruins that stand on a hill just north of Giza.
09:34And mark the location of a pyramid that may have been the most spectacular in all of Egypt.
09:47Cairo, Egypt, 1880.
09:50Just north of Giza, on a rocky outcrop that rises almost 500 feet above the Nile River.
09:57British archaeologist Flinders Petrie comes upon an extraordinary ruin.
10:04Carved into the bedrock of a hill are several strange pits that are surrounded by a wall of limestone blocks.
10:12It is the ancient site of Abu Rawash.
10:16Abu Rawash is a very intriguing site thought to be an actual pyramid structure because of its square base and
10:24the angled stones that were found within it.
10:27But the problem is, is that most of it's missing completely.
10:32In the early 19th century, when Egyptologists started to look at this pyramid at Abu Rawash, they thought it must
10:39not have been finished because it was in such a shambolic state.
10:42However, since that time, archaeological work has shown that, in fact, the pyramid was probably completed.
10:51In the years since Petrie's discovery, further structures at Abu Rawash have been discovered, including a mortuary temple, a boat
11:02pit and a workshop.
11:05At the center of the complex stands the main pyramid, which was built out of massive limestone blocks and encased
11:13in granite.
11:14It spans 348 feet on each side.
11:18And when completed, it is believed to have stood over 220 feet tall.
11:24Abu Rawash probably looked very impressive as a pyramid when it was finished.
11:29The top might have been covered with a smaller pyramidion, which would have been cased in electrum or gold.
11:36So when the sun hit it, it would reflect off, shining very brightly.
11:40And because it was high on a hill, it would gleam from a distance and really be quite a dramatic
11:45sight.
11:47The choice of this site on top of a mountain seems very likely to have been intended to make the
11:54pyramid as visible as possible.
11:56Indeed, anywhere within like a 10-mile radius, you'd better see this thing.
12:02Exactly what the Lost Pyramid of Abu Rawash looked like is completely unknown.
12:07But equally mysterious are the massive pathways and chambers that remain at the site, which have been hewn out of
12:15solid rock.
12:17Not only do we have the base of the pyramid, but what we have is a substructure that's carved into
12:26the bedrock.
12:27It goes down 65 feet or so below the bedrock surface, ends in this huge chamber, which is open to
12:37the sky.
12:41But if these mysterious chambers were part of the base of a great pyramid, the questions remain, who built it
12:49and when?
12:50While the answers are uncertain, the consensus among Egyptologists is that the Lost Pyramid at Abu Rawash was originally constructed
13:01in 2550 BC by the pharaoh Jedephra.
13:06The Jedephra was the son of Khufu, the builder of the Great Pyramid.
13:12And for some reason, he decided to move away from his father's pyramid at Giza and build it five miles
13:22to the north.
13:25Egyptologists see it all as part of the same family.
13:29Khufu built the Great Pyramid.
13:32His son Jedephra built the pyramid at Abu Rawash.
13:37And then Khufu built the second pyramid.
13:42And then the third pyramid was built by Menkara, all part of the same dynasty.
13:49All going back to the 26th, 25th centuries BCE.
13:57The dating of all four pyramids is based largely on the notion that the Great Pyramid, which is believed to
14:03be the oldest, was built by the pharaoh Khufu.
14:07The evidence for this was presented in 1837 by British explorer Richard Howard Weiss.
14:14Weiss claimed to have found the name of Khufu written in paint inside a chamber of the Great Pyramid.
14:21But this discovery has been the source of much controversy.
14:26What was strange was that the name Khufu inside the pyramid was misspelled.
14:32And he was later discovered that Weiss had the same spelling mistake inside his journal.
14:40So was it perhaps Weiss who wrote the name of Khufu inside the Great Pyramid?
14:47Because there is not a single inscription in the entire pyramid.
14:52And then later they find one and it's a spelling mistake?
14:58There's little evidence that these pharaohs really did this and some dating has been challenged.
15:04A lot of people believe it's older than 2500 or so BC.
15:09Ancient astronaut theorists also challenged the mainstream theory that people living roughly 4500 years ago
15:17could have built the Giza pyramids without the help of any advanced technology.
15:22The entire Giza plateau with its megalithic structures requires advanced engineering methods.
15:31Our modern day machinery would be very limited in being able to recreate what the ancient Egyptians achieved thousands of
15:41years ago.
15:43So you have to wonder what type of technology did they have access to?
15:51Inside the Great Pyramid you have different rooms, you have different halls, you have different passageways.
15:58This is all a question of planning, engineering.
16:02In old writing, especially in the Hittat, which is a book from an Arabian writer,
16:07they say the Great Pyramid was constructed before the Great Flood by a pharaoh with the name of Saurit.
16:15In the 14th century AD, prominent Egyptian historian Al-Makrisi wrote that in the far distant past,
16:23a king named Saurit built the Giza pyramids after he was visited by beings who descended from heaven.
16:31According to Al-Makrisi, King Saurit and his men placed the giant blocks on sheets covered with special writing
16:39that somehow allowed them to move the stones with ease.
16:43Saurit was editated by the extraterrestrials.
16:46So the Great Pyramid, in my opinion, was made by humans, but under the guidance of extraterrestrials,
16:54and under the planning of extraterrestrials, and with some of the help, the tools, the technology of extraterrestrials.
17:02Could it be that the incredible ancient structures that stand on the Giza Plateau were built thousands of years before,
17:10Egyptologists suggest, and with the help of extraterrestrial visitors?
17:16Perhaps further clues can be found while more closely examining the lost pyramid of Abu Rewash,
17:23and how it ended up in ruins.
17:32The mysterious structure at Abu Rewash, Egypt, has baffled archaeologists since its discovery in the mid-1800s.
17:41It is believed that the massive limestone blocks at the site are all that remains of an ancient pyramid that
17:49stood over 200 feet tall.
17:52But much about the pyramid, including what was behind its destruction, remains shrouded in mystery.
17:59Mainstream Egyptologists say that the Abu Rewash pyramid was basically dismantled to build other pyramids,
18:09and that the stones were then taken away and put in some other structure.
18:14We know that some of the stones were used in other structures,
18:19but to dismantle the entire pyramid for that seems incredibly difficult.
18:26Dismantling a pyramid is actually much, much more difficult and trickier than it seems.
18:32They are four to five-ton blocks put perfectly together to create a pyramid shape that lasted 4,000 years.
18:40They're not easy to dismantle.
18:42The only recorded attempt to deconstruct a pyramid took place in the 12th century,
18:48when Egypt was part of the Islamic Empire.
18:52Egyptian Sultan Al-Aziz Uthman ordered the pyramids to be destroyed,
18:57because they were an affront to his religious beliefs.
19:01He began with the smallest of the three pyramids,
19:05but soon learned that removing the stone blocks was far more difficult than he had anticipated.
19:12They could only remove about one, maybe two a day.
19:16And as soon as they prized them off the side of the structure,
19:21these huge blocks would just fall down into the sand and be lost and be almost irretrievable.
19:28So after they'd been doing this for around eight months,
19:33Al-Aziz said, look, enough is enough, we're just going to have to just stop this.
19:37The result of this reckless work that was done at this time has left this huge gash
19:45on the northern side of the Third Pyramid, which is visible to this day.
19:53While more than eight centuries have passed,
19:56since Sultan Al-Aziz abandoned his attempt to destroy the pyramids.
20:01Experts suggest that even today, using modern machinery,
20:05it would take more than 23 years working around the clock to dismantle the Abu Rewash pyramid.
20:13So if the pyramid wasn't taken apart on purpose, what happened to it?
20:22Some researchers believe the stone blocks themselves provide an important clue,
20:28because curiously, many of them are severely burned.
20:33What's really strange about it is some of the limestone at the site,
20:37and some of the granite, in fact, that have been kind of almost look like they've been superheated.
20:43We have what looks like charring of the rock, there may have been vitrification,
20:48where the rock was hit by intense heat and turned to glass, and then basically fragmented away.
20:54One speculation I have is that Abu Rewash was hit by major solar flares that happened around the time of
21:06the end of the last ice age.
21:08A solar flare?
21:10While it's a sensational notion, many researchers believe a cataclysmic event, like a solar flare,
21:19triggered a global climate change 12,000 years ago.
21:26And what's even more remarkable is that geologist Robert Shaw claims to have found evidence that the pyramid of Abu
21:33Rewash
21:34and structures on the Giza Plateau were all standing before this event occurred.
21:40I've suggested that the structures on the Giza Plateau actually have their origins much earlier.
21:50I'm not denying that the dynastic Egyptians were there, but they reappropriated these structures.
21:57This began with my work on the origins of the Sphinx.
22:00When we look at the Great Sphinx of Giza, what we find is that the core body and the walls
22:09of the Sphinx enclosure were weathered and eroded by rainfall,
22:15by water runoff, not by wind and sand as you get in a hyper-arid desert Sahara condition.
22:26What this indicates to me is that the origins of the Sphinx go back to pre-Sahara times.
22:34The Sahara desert is about 5,000 years old and the level of erosion indicates it goes back significantly earlier
22:43than 5,000 years ago.
22:46Putting everything together indicates to me that the origins of the Sphinx and the three major pyramids on the Giza
22:54Plateau
22:54were able to go back to the end of the last Ice Age, back about 12,000 years ago or
23:01about 10,000 BCE.
23:04The findings of Robert Schock remain controversial.
23:09Archaeologists maintain that the Egyptian civilization didn't begin until around 3,000 BCE.
23:16So who could have built the pyramids 7,000 years before the rise of the pharaohs?
23:22For ancient astronaut theorists, the findings of Robert Schock lend support for the idea that these towering monuments were built
23:31with the help of extraterrestrial visitors.
23:35They don't even have the wheel. They're not even supposed to have really advanced language.
23:40But somehow, somebody did this and the ultimate question is, who?
23:45And it's just more support material that there's an extraterrestrial component to what is happening in Egypt.
23:53Could it be true that the pyramids of Giza were built as much as 12,000 years ago with the
24:00help of an advanced alien race?
24:02Ancient astronaut theorists say yes.
24:05And suggest further clues about what function they served can be found by looking once again to the ruins of
24:14Abu Rawash.
24:15And examining the possibility that this structure was not destroyed by a solar flare, but by an explosion from within.
24:31For hundreds of years, the destruction of the pyramid of Abu Rawash has mystified researchers.
24:38Was the massive stone structure simply taken apart block by block?
24:44Might it have been destroyed by a solar flare?
24:49Ancient astronaut theorists believe there could be a more profound explanation.
24:54And point to the research of aerospace engineer Christopher Dunn.
25:02In 1995, Dunn traveled to Giza to conduct his own personal survey of the Great Pyramid.
25:09While exploring deep within the structure, he made a curious observation.
25:15Inside the Great Pyramid, you have all these various shafts and passageways.
25:24And chambers.
25:26They're on various angles.
25:29And some of them are so small that a human being couldn't pass through them.
25:35And when you look at it as a schematic, for me, it looks like a machine.
25:41And so then the question becomes, well, if that's the case, what did this machine do?
25:48After years of research, Dunn came to the remarkable conclusion that the Great Pyramid was designed to generate massive amounts
25:57of energy.
25:58In 1998, he published his theory in his book, the Giza Power Plant.
26:06He proposes that the Great Pyramid would actually harness energy from the Earth.
26:11And there would be chemicals and other reactions taking place in it.
26:15And this would actually produce energy.
26:19In his book, Dunn proposed the Great Pyramid was connected to other pyramids and obelisks to create a massive power
26:27grid.
26:27It produced a tremendous amount of energy until a malfunction caused it to fail.
26:34Christopher Dunn suggests that at one point there was an explosion inside the Great Pyramid in the Grand Gallery.
26:43And that disabled the Giza Power Plant.
26:48Could it be true, as experts like Chris Dunn suggest, that the pyramids of Giza were power plants?
26:56While such a possibility may sound like science fiction, some researchers believe evidence of this can be found by examining
27:04the ruins of the Lost Pyramid of Abu Rewash.
27:08This pyramid appears to have actually blown up from the inside, and there's only parts of the base left of
27:14it.
27:14Now, is this evidence that the pyramids were being used for something very powerful, maybe as a power plant?
27:21We have to wonder if Abu Rewash was also some kind of pyramid power plant that destroyed itself in an
27:31explosion in the inner core of the pyramid,
27:34and then blew the blocks out and scattered them around the site.
27:41Aerospace engineer Dr. Travis Taylor believes there is merit to Christopher Dunn's theory that the pyramids of Giza could have
27:49functioned as power plants.
27:51But he proposes that these massive structures generated electricity in a different manner,
27:58by harnessing the electromagnetic frequencies naturally occurring in the Earth's atmosphere.
28:06To me, more likely is that the pyramids are much more like Nikola Tesla's idea of wireless power transmission.
28:16Now, the reason I say this is because when Nikola Tesla was building Wardenclyffe Tower to experiment with wireless power,
28:25it was originally supposed to be the height of the Great Pyramid.
28:29And I think he believed that the pyramids were being used to gather electromagnetic energy from the Earth
28:35and then wirelessly transmit it to other places, maybe obelisks or other pyramids.
28:44According to Dr. Taylor, a resonant frequency could be powerful enough to cause a structure as massive as the pyramid
28:52at Abu Rewash to explode.
28:55This reminds me of a device known as the Jericho device that was used in the Apollo era.
29:01And they used this big sound wave generator to shake the rocket.
29:07One day, they hit a resonant frequency of this that ripped the entire first stage off of the test platform.
29:14They hit the right resonant frequency.
29:17It's just like when the opera singer hits the right resonant frequency and the glass shatters.
29:23If this pyramid was being used for acoustic energy collection or creation, if they hit the wrong resonant frequency,
29:31it could have been a crystal glass shattering from the opera singer's song.
29:37It has been suggested that the pyramids at Giza were energy devices.
29:43And this is very high-tech kind of stuff.
29:46And so to build that thousands of years ago, other than some advanced race, was it extraterrestrials?
29:55Could it be that the ruins of the Lost Pyramid at Abu Rewash are all that remains of a powerful
30:02technological device?
30:05One that was designed by other worldly beings?
30:09Ancient astronaut theorists suggest further clues may be found by examining Egyptian writings about an age before the pharaohs,
30:18when Earth was inhabited by the gods.
30:27Giza, Egypt, 1999.
30:31Egyptian archaeologist Zahi Hawass begins an excavation of a subterranean chamber near the Sphinx.
30:39To his astonishment, he uncovers a network of tunnels that descends deep into the Earth
30:45and finds artifacts within them connected to the god Osiris.
30:50Dr. Hawass names the mysterious underground structure the Osiris Shaft.
30:56The Osiris Shaft consists of not one shaft, but three shafts.
31:01So you have a shaft, a chamber, a shaft, another chamber complex,
31:06and a third shaft that ends in one big chamber, which is where you have a massive sarcophagus.
31:12This has been called the Osiris Shaft because a lot of Osiris figurines were found here.
31:19Osiris was one of the ancient Egyptians' most important deities,
31:24associated with fertility, agriculture, death, and resurrection.
31:28And in addition to discovering Osiris figurines within the tunnels,
31:34Dr. Hawass found that the nine-foot-long sarcophagus, surrounded by water and four pillars,
31:40matches Osiris' tomb as described in ancient texts.
31:45Why does a god need a tomb? There is no other places in ancient Egypt where we have a tomb
31:53for a god.
31:55And as the scripture would say, this is how Osiris transports between the underworld to this world we're in.
32:06Perhaps the most curious aspect of the Osiris Shaft is the fact that the giant sarcophagus that lies at the
32:13bottom
32:14is far too large to fit through the narrow opening at the top,
32:19or be maneuvered through the Osiris shaft's multiple tunnels and chambers.
32:24There's a massive sarcophagus, about 15 to 20 ton in weight, made from one piece of stone too big to
32:34fit within the entrance of the shaft.
32:38I've been down there before, and I was struggling to get all the way down to the lowest level,
32:45let alone try to take 20 tons with me down four-footable fields under the ground.
32:54How do you drag a nine-foot sarcophagus down a shaft that's, you know, two feet wide?
33:01There are more questions than answers about the Osiris shaft.
33:06According to Egyptian writings, Osiris and his wife Isis came to Egypt from the belt stars of Orion.
33:14And as far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned, this is not mythology,
33:20but a historical account of extraterrestrial visitation.
33:25Osiris is claimed to have been here on Earth with his wife.
33:29Now, how did he get here?
33:31It's very possible that we're looking at some type of misunderstood technology
33:35with this Osiris shaft in the sarcophagon.
33:39Is it a type of Stargate that actually brought them here?
33:43And this could have been thousands of years before civilizations like the Egyptian culture.
33:50When we look at the three pyramids of Giza, they are almost precise mirror images of the three belt stars
33:57of Orion.
33:58I say that it's almost precise because it really is a little bit off today due to what's called the
34:05procession of the equinoxes.
34:06Through time, Earth gently starts to wobble and puts us out of alignment with the stars.
34:12But utilizing computer software, researchers have discovered that the three belt stars of Orion and the three pyramids of Egypt
34:22would precisely match 12,500 years ago.
34:28Is it possible that the pyramids of Giza, as well as the lost pyramid of Abu Rewash, are more than
34:3512,000 years old?
34:37And could the builders of these massive structures have been directed by extraterrestrial visitors to position them,
34:45so that they aligned with the stars that they came from?
34:49Ancient astronaut theorists say yes, and suggest further evidence can be found
34:55by examining a mysterious chapter of Egyptian history known as Septepi.
35:02The Egyptians talk about Septepi, which is this golden era when the gods ruled the Earth.
35:08And that was when, of course, everything was perfection.
35:12During this so-called Golden Age, Egypt was ruled by the god-king Horus.
35:18In Egyptian mythology, Horus is the son of Isis and Osiris.
35:25Horus was one of the gods who was seen often as a guardian and also as a protector
35:31to keep the evil gods from hurting humans.
35:37One of the crucial parts of that mythology is that Horus is the god of every pharaoh.
35:46So, in a way, Osiris and Isis were the father and mother of every pharaoh of ancient Egypt.
35:57Most historians suggest that the era known as Septepi is little more than a myth.
36:04But ancient astronaut theorists believe evidence it existed
36:07can be found in an ancient document known as the Turin Kings List.
36:13It's an astounding list of pharaohs who have extremely long reigns, thousands of years.
36:21And it accounts for all of the kings all the way up into the time of Ramses II.
36:25So, more and more we have to look at this idea that this Golden Age existed and it's actually their
36:33true history.
36:35What's so interesting about this idea of Septepi is that ancient Egypt is not the only place that talks about
36:42a deeper antiquity to humankind than what we're being told.
36:48The concept of a Golden Age, where the gods lived amongst humans, can be found in ancient mythologies across the
36:55globe.
36:56It's even written about in the Hebrew Bible, where fallen angels known as the Watchers existed alongside humans before the
37:05Great Flood.
37:07If these legends are in fact the actual history, this might tell us that the Great Pyramids are thousands of
37:14years older than we previously understood.
37:18Might Egypt's most extraordinary monuments, including the Pyramids of the Giza Plateau and the Lost Pyramid of Abu Rumash,
37:27be remnants from an era when extraterrestrials co-existed with humankind more than 12,000 years ago?
37:35Ancient astronaut theorists believe further clues may be found by examining a recently discovered underground complex,
37:44hidden beneath the Giza Plateau.
37:52Cairo, Egypt, March, 2025.
37:57Researchers from the University of Pisa in Italy and the University of Strathclid in Scotland are surveying the Giza Plateau
38:06with a new technology known as synthetic aperture radar.
38:11This groundbreaking instrument sends successive pulses of radio waves from a satellite to create a 3D image of what lies
38:20below the surface of the Earth.
38:21In the course of their survey, the research team finds something truly astonishing hidden beneath the sands of the Giza
38:29Plateau.
38:31Archaeologists discovered a network of tunnels and passageways and structures, including five structures beneath the pyramids,
38:41inside the Giza Plateau, including cylindrical objects that seem to be part of some mechanical device.
38:51Images taken by the synthetic aperture radar show what appears to be eight massive cylindrical shafts surrounded by spiral pathways,
39:01reaching as deep as 2,000 feet beneath the Giza Plateau.
39:06This has caused a sensation, it's gone viral, everyone's talking about it.
39:12So they've recreated what it would have looked like and it is absolutely mind-blowing.
39:17But really, we have to kind of get down there and take a look now.
39:22Egyptologists now are describing it as a huge city beneath the pyramids.
39:28How did it get there and how did they build this?
39:32It would seem to be beyond the technology that the dynastic Egyptians would have had.
39:38While there is much excitement about what might lie hidden beneath the pyramids of the Giza Plateau,
39:44it could be years before archaeologists are able to excavate.
39:50Even now after 200 years or so of archaeological excavation,
39:55only a tiny proportion of the sites have actually been investigated.
40:00It is estimated that everything you see from ancient Egypt that we have above the sand today,
40:07all the pyramids, all the tombs, all the pharaohs, mummies, all the gold, all the treasure,
40:13is about one third of ancient Egypt.
40:18It is believed that nearly 70% of ancient Egypt is still under the sand.
40:27The sand of Egypt will carry many secrets for the rest of our lifetime,
40:32and our kids' lifetime, and our grandkids' lifetime.
40:39We are now in the time of uncovering the most amazing things.
40:45For the very first time, we now have access to military-grade technology
40:51that is being used for archaeology.
40:53I think with this new technology, we will also uncover that our past is way, way, way more ancient
41:03than we've ever even dreamed of.
41:07If we can really solve this mystery of the Abu Rwash pyramid,
41:12this would go a long way to proving that the civilization of Egypt
41:18is much older than what mainstream Egyptologists are saying and goes back tens of thousands of years.
41:27More than 150 years after its discovery,
41:30the lost pyramid of Abu Rwash remains one of the ancient world's greatest mysteries.
41:37Could it have been built thousands of years before the rise of ancient Egypt?
41:43Was it part of an advanced alien technology?
41:47And might there be even more astounding revelations buried beneath the desert sands?
41:55Perhaps the answers lie hidden among the ruins of Abu Rwash.
41:59And when they are found, they will reveal the truth about our extraterrestrial past.
42:06Or have you noticed?
42:06Even the history of AmeriStar Wars.
42:10You must have been warned by the
42:11It's not the only way you're involved,
42:11We can see how these characters work in the world has not been all over.
