You keep adding to what I thought was my fairly complete knowledge of the pyramids. Thank you, Irena. I have only been in the Great Pyramid. Your research and knowledge of the nuances of each pyramid is illuminating.
Another amazing episode Irena! I really love how you show all the details about the architecture of the pyramids! Also I love the explanation about the historical context! Thank you very much for your work! ♥ 😃
I guess he did achieve a form of immortality...we still know his name. Glad you were allowed to film freely there. It definitely looks like a tight fit! Thanks Irena, great work as usual! 🖖☺️🤘🇨🇦❤️
What I like most of your videos is the time you take to explain the monument and the views offered. Please keep doing the great job you are giving us. Your friend in Key West Ingrid Holm.
you can see why so many themes and album covers are based on this ancient culture in Metal Music, killing Joke even recorded an album "Pandemonium" in the Kings and Queens chamber of the great Pyramid. This is fascinating. Wow! Just Wow!
As you say @ around 16min...The duality of the angle difference in the lower to upper parts is clear in the construction of this Pyramid. It is clearly a functional and symbolic element in the construction. Thanks for sharing this wonderful discovery
sneferu, built three pyramids, Meidum, red pyramid, and bent pyramid. All this in about 30 years of his life. It's a project, even more impressive than the Great Pyramid at Giza, but, there isn't even a papyrus or inscription that describes everything he did.
Thank you so much, your film is very informative and interesting !!!! I learned alot from this film , most people don't go very far ,they stop and don't go all the way as you did !!!! They complain about the HEAT ,, you didn't !!!!! You are very Brave to go past those BATS !!!!! Again thanks for your time and effort !!!!! Great JOB !!!!! TERESA HAYWARD CALIFORNIA USA
Well done braving it out with all the bats in there, you done really well Irena. This was a really exciting episode, I loved the way you talked us through it. Did you do a separate video for the red pyramid, I would love to see that one too. I still cant believe the pyramids are ancient, it must have been so hard to build them, theres so many blocks, you just wouldn't know where to start...You are so cool, I wish I was out there with you. Thankyou so much AncientSitesGirl, you are the best. Love always 🧡🧡🧡
Thank you so much Mark❤️I made a video about the red pyramid a long time ago, it's one of my first ones😋 but I feel like I'll have to come back to it and film it properly
@@ancientsitesgirl Oh excellent thankyou, I will go back to the start to watch that one. I need that to be fresh in my mind with the bent pyramid video. And of course you feel you have to go back, you will learn more everytime you visit and just like you said, we know less about these pyramids than the others, maybe you will be the one to make some great new discoveries. Take care and I look forward to your next new video. I love you Irena - 'Peace Goddess' 🙂 ✌🧡🧡🧡
Thank you for your excellent work and knowledge. I went there last year but only managed to go down to the bottom of the entrance shaft, when the lights went out.
Wish I would have had the time to visit the bent pyramid when I visited Egypt in 2005, maybe next year! Great video! Tunnels under the pyramid? Cheers!
I got shocked in here. i dont think the lights were grounded right or something. If i touched the side wall in the corridor I could feel voltage in my arm.
Hi, I'm loving the videos! Very high quality and informative. Do you have any idea or thoughts on how the Ancient Egyptians lit the tombs while carving and painting deep inside of them? I don't think flame torches were used.
@@ancientsitesgirl thanks for the response, I appreciate you for taking the time! I’m trying to think about how they did things back then. I’m making a 3d reconstruction of a tomb as one may have looked while it was being built. And one thing I’m noticing is how dark it can get. Adding little oil lamps definitely helped :-)
Thanks for the in depth look at this structure I barely knew about. I can’t help but wonder why the odd sized passage ways were used. I admire your courage and especially your agility in traversing those narrow passages.
Wonderful video! I will be going to Egypt this November and I plan on going to the Bent Pyramid. Thanks for making this and giving me a heads up on the tunnel down there. You mentioned it being hard to breath inside for the most part. I am glad there is a spot where there's a lot of ventilation. I hope I don't get claustrophobic while exploring inside!
I think some major psychological consideration was behind the decision to complete the bend pyramid even though it required a much less steep angle of inclination. Since the blocks were not made in a highly regulated manner, they couldn't simply disassemble the whole thing and start over with the Red pyramid as a superior replacement, so in order to 'save face' and not look forever like a king who build a massive failure, they had to finish it even though it would never look right. Like SpaceX and their constantly evolving rocket designs, the pyramid designers had to continually innovate new improvements and incorporate new and different features... which culminated in the Great Pyramid...with it being the final great pyramid and the center pyramid preceding it. That seems more likely than the official narrative of the order of construction being the opposite. [PS You were lucky that you only had a fear of bats but not a fear of confined spaces...claustrophobia...since some of those passages seem barely passable.]
Thanks for commenting. I'm actually aware it's grammatically incorrect :D BUT Egypt features numerous unique pyramids and, in my opinion, this one is "the most" "one of a kind". ;)
that tunnel's nearly a slide at that point lol, i mean sure it wasn't meant to be accessible but wow. i was wondering how so many of those blocks are still in place on the lower half even though ones below are gone, only for seconds later you mentioned the tilt! interesting to think about how pyramids were essentially a design/architectural movement
I’m lost as to what part of these pyramids indicates that there were burials here? There is nowhere to carry a sarcophagus in to any of the chambers?..
I just can't understand why the pyramids were built.....the amount of work seems disproportionate to their uses.......................at least the uses that are currently given................
