Who Built The Giza Pyramids?? Many scientist believe that the pyramids

were built by slaves, some think by thousands of skilled workers. (Egyptian Pyramids)

Unexplainable Facts About Pyramids

It took about 23 years to complete, 2,300,000 building blocks, each block weighed an average of 2.5 tons each (although some weigh as much as 16 tons).

The length of the base is 755ft (230.4m) they rise at an angle of 51degrees to a height of 481ft. but nowadays 451ft.

Time Period

So far we have discovered 138 pyramids

Most built as tombs for Pharaohs

The majority of them were built between 2630 and 2613

This was only a period of about 23 years

Technology of the Time The Ancient Egyptians of the time had

very little technology

(Daniken)

Technology continued Some of the blocks are estimated to

weigh around 2 tons This is approximately the weight of a

Toyota 4-Runner

(Car and driver)

The Egyptians only had manpower to move build the pyramids

They had armies of slaves to get this work done, but still did it in an incredible amount of time

Ridiculous! What about the fact that the Egyptians

had not even invented the wheel yet, but the blocks that they had to carry to build the pyramids weighed about 2 tons each?

4,000 lbs.? What did they do... use cement? In fact, they used so much stone, that if you took all of the stone they used and cut it into 1 foot square blocks, it would extend 2/3 of the way around the earth!!! (startling)

Mathematics If you take the perimeter of the pyramid

and divide it by two times the height, you get a number that is exactly equivalent to the number pi (3.14159...) up to the fifteenth digit

(Daniken)

The Universe The universe is infinitely big, and always

expanding

Aliens Odds are that there are life forms

somewhere within the vast universe This seems logical as it is not impossible

for life to exist in harsh conditions.

Aliens Survey Surveyed 63 people across campus

Fairly random sample, gathered in dorms

Mixture of many different majors, not just engineers

42 believed aliens could exist, 21 did not

ResultsBelieve in Aliens?

YesNo

Possible VisitationVisitation Possible

YesNo

Of the 42 people who believed in Aliens, only 18 believed that visitation had happened.

This means that 29% of people surveyed believe that Aliens could have visited

Letter to the Editor One estimate is that it would take

between 17,000 to 18,000 men, all working together, to move such stones.

It seems to me that the ancients either had access to technologies we no longer possess, or the stones were cut and moved by non-human creatures far stronger than ourselves.
