This is the best semi-conspiracy theory documentary I've seen about the pyramids
Thanks for sharing, it was interesting to watch. Still, it gave me more of a "that's too far-fetched"-feeling than "they have a point".
Especially the parts about the numbers don't make much sense. I mean, how special is it, that a culture which is capable of building huge structures with great precision, is also capable of dividing the circumference of a circle by its diameter? And why would the meter be so special? Appearantly, those guys would go through great lengths, just to have everything be presented in nice numbers, but only after we convert them to a unit they were not using... Sorry, but that doesn't sound very convincing to me.
I have several more problems with it, but I won't waste my time on explaining them. Or more nicely said: I'll leave them as an exercise for the reader.
I certainly did like the idea that the pyramids could have been built long before the Egyptians. But I don't think their conclusion makes all that much sense.
