About Great Pyramid

The Great Pyramid of Giza is the largest of the Egyptian pyramids and the most famous landmark of the Giza pyramid complex in Giza, Egypt. It is the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the only wonder that has remained largely intact. The Great Pyramid served as the tomb of Egyptian Pharaoh Khufu ("Cheops"), who ruled during the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom. It was built c. 2600 BC over a period of about 26 years.

  1. Before they did this, before they started doing this pyramid, which they will probably do, and they had another idea where they wanted to build a pyramid containing the same amount of bricks as there were people born in the 20th century. It's quite a nice idea, isn't it? How is that? Unfortunately, it's 10 billion. The Great Pyramid in Giza has 2.3 million. It would have been a hell of a pyramid. That's true, unless you had tiny bricks, and then Lego bricks. Are they selling those bricks?

They think that the sphinx is the face of Khufu, which is the person who the Great Pyramid was built for, so maybe the sphinx is a guy. Oh. I thought the sphinx was a woman, and that when she's riddling, then she's female. I'm pretty sure. Yes.
