Hmmn sounds like only the truth can shake any faith. Again, it sounds like you are afraid of changing your belief even when you see a factually superior evidence to proof that what you believed all along was a fat fucking lie.

Explorers:

most expensive civil engineering project, with a total cost of$20 billion.

Completion date: 1994.

The pyramid remains the greatest engineering feat of all time, and it was built by Africans. It has never been replicated.

Till this very moment nobody understands how it was built!!

Admn401:


you say it was build by humans, and not just humans but africans
name another great engineering feat that was built by humans (of any race) but cannot be replicated till this day.

Admin401:


someones foreign reserve they used to build an airport.
it's not fair ohh

musicwriter:


Of course, it was built by Africans. You can be rest assured of this, because they drew themselves and told stories on the walls inside the pyramid. Everything else they built couldn't stand the test of time. In fact, many were stolen and is spread in museums in Europe and America.

The invented mathematics, geometry, physics, chemistry. These has not been replicated.

The pyramid was built by humans of course, but whoever built it were thinking a lot of stuff.

The major reason y i watch foreign movies is to gain sumtin meaniful,the movie GOD OF EGYPT a little revelation was made abt Egypt.dat tower dat was built for d rebellious king took over 2000 lives of slaves,slaves were dying everyday and over 10000 slaves built it,nw to d great pyramid do u knw hw many people would have lost their lives,amount of materials used.and i believe dat during dat era dere was close relationship with gods.

Explorers:
Great Pyramid of Giza, Egypt.

The Great Pyramid was the tallest man-made structure in the world for more than 3,800 years.

The builders responsible for the Great Pyramid of Giza would have needed more than a few tea breaks to keep them motivated.

The pyramid consists of 2.3 million stone blocks.

The largest ones, found in the King's chamber, weigh between 25 and 80 tons and were transported to the site from Aswan, 800 kilometers away.

In total, 5.5 million tons of limestone, 8,000 tons of granite and 500,000 tons of mortar were used.


How did they cut the stone into the perfect shapes, how were the stones transported from over 800km, and how were the stones lifted to that height and arranged perfectly(139m).

No caterpillars, no bulldozers, no excavators, no rock saw, drilling equipments, and no cranes or lifting equipments/machineries.

Experts have never worked out these questions, how the blocks were moved into place.

Completion date: 2504 BC.





I just wish the sun, moon, and stars are CCTVs.

We would just hack into them and play back to 5000 years.

Because the sun will be shining up in the sky while the construction was going on and the Moon/stars up in the sky as they work through the dark of the night.

the israelites really suffered.

You think it was built during the time of the reign of Rameses-1.?

Some said the Pyramid was built by professionals and not slaves. But i know hundreds or thousands of people must have died constructing this, accident most especially.

Just like the Great wall.

Billyonaire:
Dr. Mike Heier knows little about the Pyramid, has very little knowledge of the Anunnakis and has no proof that the information is wrong. He just sat his ass on one chair and say there is no evidence. You see, if he wants to learn, he can move around and search and not sit at one place and say, it is not true.

The scientists that worked on the sumerian texts from which most of the Holy books are drafted from, are actually more cerebral than the Heier guy.

Feraz:
Most of those if I am not mistaken were destroyed when the Romans attacked Egypt thereby destroying the library that held enough knowledges. The library was burnt down; if not, I think we'd have advanced far beyond what we know as humans as I think that is where the answers as to how the pyramids and the sphinx were built lie.

Explorers:
The Channel Tunnel (The Chunnel).


Opened in 1994, the Channel Tunnel is an undersea connection between England and France.

Crossing the English Channel, the tunnel holds the record for longest undersea portion, at 37.9 km (23.5 mi) out of a total length of 50.5 km (31.4 mi).

The tunnel reaches a depth of impressive 75 m (250 ft) and allow trains to travel at 160 kmh (99 mph).

With the channel tunnel passengers can travel from London to Paris in just 2 hours 15 minutes.

I've heard so much about this channel. a real engineering feat indeed.

Explorers:

They went below the sea bed for almost 50km.

Explorers:
From the Great Pyramid built almost 3000 years ago with over 2million stones weighing 2.5 tons each to the Palm Islands in Dubai, built of islands that had to be constructed from rock and sandstone, to stepping out onto an oval glass ring above the Grand Canyon.

These are just a couple of amazing constructions found around the world and here are some of the greatest feats of engineering that we think are worth a mention.

What about Hong Kong International Airport?

It was built on artificial land and it has the largest cargo in the world where over 1million of luggage passed everyday without human touch.

There are two major waters crossing to the Airport, initially it posses a big challenge for engineers but which were solved by building an under water tunnel at about 50m below water and a double decker suspension bridge.

We need MEGASTRUCTURE in this country.

Another fascinating thread from Explorers. Indeed, this geezer's threads are the very best on this forum.

Kudos, Explorers!
