Hidden Secrets of the Bent Pyramid Seen for the First Time

Go inside the Bent Pyramid where no archaeologist has gone before.
The Bent Pyramid has never been investigated properly, and is a woefully neglected monument. A unique feature of the pyramid is a 15-meter vertical shaft nicknamed the ‘Chimney’. This shaft contains special architecture sacred to the ancient Egyptians, but it has never been photographed or examined for the purpose behind the design.
This video takes you to the top of the Chimney to see the evidence for yourself, and perhaps restore the Bent Pyramid to its rightful place in Egyptian history.

Your observations and explanations make a lot of sense, and I wish we had this information before my visit. This would have clarified the confusing statements that the Red Pyramid was built as a replacement of a failed effort.

    • Peer review is us .. We are all capable of reading and understanding information and filtering out the facts from the speculation. To start to understand what a pyramid is and how it functions you have to read the ancient texts and try to get inside the heads of the people building them. They are literally "immortality machines" .. it's there in the texts.. It seems in some ways they have worked as intended because we know the names of their builders.. and while the name of a person is known they aren't really dead.. That's how they seem to have seen it. Add in the preservation of the bodies and what we know now about DNA and things and suddenly it's not quite so weird. If you are interested have a read of the story of Isis and Osiris and the birth of Horus.. then use your modern eyes on it.

    • The big secret of the Bent Pyramid, is that the bent top is a copy of the Red Pyramid, on a 10 to 5.5 ratio. The Red pyramid is a 20-21-29 pythagorean triangle, measured in cubits (x10). The top of Bent is a 20-21-29 pythagorean triangle, measured in rods. (The Egyptian rod is 5.5 cubits - the same as the Imperial rod is 5.5 yards.) So the Bent Pyramid was designed and planned to have the bend on top. This was not a mistake, or subsidence. See ‘K2, Quest if the Gods’. R

    • Many things seem obvious once they're pointed out. Not all Egyptilogists study architecture, and even History for Granite just now noticed it, so I'd argue it is excusable. That's all assuming it hasn't been documented somewhere. I trust this channel is diligent about it's research, but it's certainly possible someone mentioned it somewhere in some obscure text. Lastly, perhaps it was observed but wasn't deemed noteworthy. If you did want to change pitch halfway through your construction, no reason you can't carve the angle into the stone. I'm more curious about the need to...Was the pyramid not level? Why not? Did a portion of it sink slightly? Etc.

    • One could still argue that if a change of plans was necessary, should the aesthetics have been important enough, then it still made sense to cut blocks like that to "smooth" the transition. A closer investigation would hopefully yield more clues. Honestly, it astounds me that such a basic observation is not already commonly documented, unless that is a failure of the OC to find such documentation (less likely imo but still). What other details could have been missed? Did the LIDAR scan fully document the exterior, and at what resolution? What about ground-penetrating radar and the such?

  • I am a large fan of your content. Over all of your videos you’ve convinced me that your observation based theories on the pyramids are the most plausible in comparison to just about everything else out there currently. That being said you never fail to mention your frustrations with academic egyptology. Don’t get me wrong, I agree with the majority of what you have to say on the topic but I’m curious as to why you haven’t published yourself to help set an example in making a change in these common held views in egyptology (or atleast set a foundation which others may build off of). I’m really grateful you make this stiff for us because its genuinely cool, but more or less as you’ve said, the only way deeper studies can take place at these monuments, especially ones utilizing modern technology, is if the egyptologists evolve to want that. As I see it, as someone familiar with the field of archaeology, I suspect part of the reason they’re as dismissive of new players doing research on these monuments as they are has to do with decades of combatting pseudo science has taken a great toll on them (acknowledging the few outsiders who make great points is unfortunately viewed as acknowledgement of the entire pseudo science community by said community since they see themselves as coming from the same background).

    • C'mon, be real. Academia is not objective. Its ripe with favor, abuse, privilege and at the mercy of the snob club. Even Einstein's Paper on Relativity was snubbed for years because he was not in the club. If objective fact as merit was academia's currency, you would have a point. But its not. We live in a new world, science is no longer gate-kept by the stratospheric snob club of traditional academia. What is going on right here on KZhead is amazing! And it is only possible, because our friend here does not have to kiss the ring or be banished. He could publish. Maybe it moves the needle. But, I would not hold my breath. Egyptology is one of the most corrupt disciplines Ive ever seen.

    • Einstein, despite many criticizing his theories, still followed the scientific method and published his works. Theories that the science community couldn’t shoot down. Those scientists might not have come around to general relativity but the next generation's sure did. And the reasons those scientists got anywhere is because they had Einsteins work as a verifiable foundation. I take no comfort in the fact that archaeology and especially egyptology are being held back by gate keeping. But change will come as it always does, no one lives forever and their ideologies with them. The old guard can be replaced by near clones of themselves, or maybe their successors will be different because the works they built off of disagreed with each other.

It seems that most, if not all, of our knowledge of the Pyramids comes from the work of interested amateurs rather than professional archeologists. And that's really weird. The work that you've just done is a classic example of it. Sending a camera up that shaft is a trivial task, and yet none of the "official" people ever bothered to do it. Anyway, keep up the good work. Looking forward to the next installment.

  • Great video. I don't understand how any modern person could call the Bent Pyramid a failure- it's obvious it wasn't thought of that way from the amount of resources put into it after the change in angle. Whether they changed the design while building, or not, doesn't matter. I work in construction, design changes that happen during building lead to a successful project, IMO. Dude could have been like "I want a mini pyramid too" "All our workers are on the big one" "Is there any way we could free up resources from the big one? It's plenty big already.." I see no 'failure' which ever option one may believe. edit: a word

  • At Gisa, some of the stone floor have cracks between massive stones. You can just keep pouring sand in them... it never fills up. On the other hand, ground penetrating radar scans, taken in several areas of Egypt reveals symmetrical structures (yes, also pyramids) still buried under the sand. Zahi Hawas has notably put a lid on anything that is new, and not censured by himself. Ben (unchartedX youtube channel) has also uncovered the existence of a palace under their feet while in Egypt. Why are there so many smart, interested individuals like yourself, barred from a full and rapid scientific exploration of a civilization(s) that spanned across antediluvian builders to Cleopatra? Science is a body of knowledge that is acquired in the pursuit of truth. Some people in authority are acting against science. Thank you for the excellent research you did! Cheers!

    • *Hawas has an ego bigger than the great pyramid.* He has done more to hold history back from the truth than the people slowly moving it forward with an open mind. As Max Planck famously said: _”Science progresses one funeral at a time.”_ There are many wonderful things awaiting to be discovered once he passes. This channel is a blessing against his dogma, propaganda, and closed mind / insecurity.

After the advent of Islam in the 7th Century, every single government and society there, has simply tried to hide the truth or schemed to fool the Scientific Community and the people as a whole.

Your mention of incense makes me wonder if the chimney was, in fact, a sort of chimney where smoke would ascend with the warmed air in the direction of the upper chamber and collect there instead of filling the stagnant lower chamber. Maybe it is for theatrics, like a stage set. That would fit with your idea of a space designed for use. I wonder if modeling the space with a heat source where the incense was found might produce some interesting air-current effects, maybe involving the window.

  • Great video. Has anyone ever measured the distance in % or in actual feet/meters/cubits of where the bent pyramid bends, and compared it to the point where the great pyramid goes from large stones to distinctly smaller stones. There appears to be a line across both pyramids at about the same level, defined by the bend (in the bent pyramid) and the stone change in the great pyramid. I have noticed that the % of area dedicated to below ground, from ground to~30% above, and then the top % above the bend/line, seem uniform. (Gods of the underworld, Gods of the earth and Gods of the sky) each getting a % of the pharaoh's monument dedicated to them, to link him to all the Gods. Many polytheistic, ancient religions take great care to pay homage in all offerings to all the gods and not risk upsetting any of them. Has anyone ever considered the constructions in this manner?

    • I will answer this, since it is quite easy to look up this information... The change in angle of the bent pyramid occurs ~47 metres above the ground. However, the "point where the great pyramid goes from large stones to distinctly smaller stones" that you mention does not exist. You can easily find images on Google which show the height of each course and there really isn't any one special place where it changes. Rather there are *several* places where the layers become slightly thicker than normal for a few courses before returning to normal. These thicker courses occur at heights of roughly 17m, 30m, 38m, 70m, 77m, and 90m. None of these match with the 47m from the bent pyramid. The horizontal lines you can see (when the light hits at the right angle) on the Great pyramid are basically these areas where the course thickness is different. It's hard to make out but there could be a pattern to it, reflecting some structural thing, though I don't have any explanation for that.

  • There's another detail that links the chimney to the queen's chamber niche: The chimney continues downwards for several meters (beyond the lowest point in the pyramid?) although it's filled in and I'm not sure if it was ever fully explored. The queen's chamber niche also has an excavation into the floor in front of it. I don't know why the excavation was made there (did looters dig there as well?) but it seems suspicious, especially after watching ancient architects' video on seven mysteries of the great pyramid. He makes a good case for this excavation to be reopened, and if your hypothesis is correct then the lower chimney should be as well. There may be evidence confirming the connection to be found. Thank you for a wonderful video, keep up the great work :)
