How Ancient Egypt Built the Great Pyramid! 🇪🇬🍅 #shorts

How did ancient Egyptians build the Great Pyramid of Khufu and carve the Great Sphinx of Giza? 🇪🇬🍅 Join Toto the Travelling Tomato and Egyptian archaeologist & tour guide Layla Hassan on the sunlit Giza Plateau in Cairo, Egypt (Episode 3) as they unlock 3 real engineering secrets behind the ancient world's greatest wonders in 64 seconds!

🏛️ 3 ANCIENT EGYPTIAN ENGINEERING SECRETS UNLOCKED IN THIS EPISODE:
1️⃣ The Nile River & Wet-Sand Sledge Trick (2+ Million Stones): Ancient Egyptian builders floated massive limestone blocks down the Nile River during the seasonal flood and pulled heavy wooden sledges across wet desert sand—pouring just the right amount of water in front of the runners reduced sliding friction by up to 50%!
2️⃣ Gleaming White Tura Limestone & True North Alignment: The Great Pyramid of Khufu was originally encased in polished white Tura limestone casing stones that reflected the Egyptian sun like a giant star, and its four sides were aligned to True North with astonishing astronomical precision!
3️⃣ The Monolithic Great Sphinx of Giza: Rather than stacking separate stone blocks, ancient workers carved the colossal Great Sphinx directly out of one solid natural limestone bedrock ridge right beside the pyramid causeway!
