Great Pyramid on the Joe Rogan Experience

“In 2010, I brought a team, scientists from every field, and we recounted the stones based on the new evidence, and we found out that the stones of the pyramid …”

Hawass says a 2010 recount found the Great Pyramid contains more than one million stone blocks, with average limestone blocks weighing half a ton to two and a half tons.

“Number two, that the stones used in building the great pyramid came from Torah. And Torah is 25 miles to the east from Giza. And number three, that Kufu ruled …”

Hawass characterizes the standard textbook claims as: pyramid stones came from Tura 25 miles east of Giza, Khufu ruled 23 years, and the Great Pyramid has 2,300,000 blocks.

“So now that you know that the base is solid rock, that removes 1,300,000 stones that were”

The claim is that recognizing the pyramid base is solid carved rock removes about 1,300,000 blocks from the previous 2,300,000 estimate.

“But now we discovered that they slaughter 11 cows and 33 goats every day, and this can feed 10,000 workmen a day. Then we believe now, and I published, that th…”

Hawass claims animal bone evidence shows 11 cows and 33 goats were slaughtered daily to feed a workforce of about 10,000 pyramid builders who worked with one day off every ten days.

“Right, but I thought it was used in Egypt like to measure wood that was in mortar to date the Great Pyramid to 2500 BC. No, that was an experiment to leave the…”

Rogan states that carbon dating of organic material in the Great Pyramid's mortar dated it to around 2500 BC.

“Because if it's the tomb of Khufufu then it had to be built in 23 years because that was his reign He would start in theory building it at the beginning of his…”

The Great Pyramid, if the tomb of Khufu, would have had to be built within his roughly 23-year reign.

“And this monument is aligned to within three sixtieths of a single degree of true north. Why do I pick three sixtieths? Because degrees are divided into 60 min…”

Hancock claims the Great Pyramid is aligned to true north within three arc minutes (three sixtieths of a degree).

“Now I give you some statistics. It's 481.39 feet high originally. It's a bit lower today. It lost some 30 feet from its top in an earthquake. Footprint of the …”

Hancock gives statistics for the Great Pyramid: originally 481.39 feet tall, base footprint 13.1 acres, weight 6 million tons.
