The Great Pyramid of Giza is a world wonder that has been around for a long time. How the technology of that time was able to build such a structure is still a great mystery in the history of design. It’s also a beautiful sight for people who come to Egypt. But not many people are able to see the Great Pyramid of Giza’s very top. But recently, a Brazilian did have the chance and did not miss it. He took a great video of the flight.
Lucky tourists may be able to see the top of the pyramids when their planes land in Egypt, as long as they are not on a planned trip. However, Yanis Terzis, a 35-year-old Brazilian, used his paramotor to get very close to the top of the tower. He is from Campinas, Brazil, and works as a psychiatric supervisor and a pilot. His plan was to fly over a number of ancient Egyptian places. The Sphinx was on the list. It was done while he was on a paramotor event trip to Luxor and Cairo in Egypt. A normal paraglider is like a paramotor, but the back of the paramotor has a huge fan that helps it move forward.
What is the Great Pyramid of Giza’s top part?
Terzis put a GoPro Hero 10 on his helmet so that he could record his trip. Just to be clear, he wasn’t doing anything wrong. Getting permission to fly over the old buildings was already taken care of. He wanted to get “some of the most amazing footage from a different angle over the pyramids and temples.”
During his trip over the Great Pyramid of Giza, he chose to take a chance and get as close to the ground as possible. This is something he likes to do, and it has led to amazing scenes that have more than 7 million views on YouTube. This time, he was so close to the pyramid that he could have put his feet on the very top of it. Terzis will remember it for the rest of his life. Besides, not many people ever get the chance to see the tops of these buildings. In his film, he talked about “scriptures and graffiti” and showed words carved into white stone. Another thing he said was that the “incredible view in 4k gives you another perspective, and you can see all the details from the monuments.”
In his video, he can just barely be seen touching the top of the towers. If you didn’t know, those parts are pretty flat and not at all pointy like they look from the bottom. There is no doubt that the Giza Pyramids are one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The Great Pyramid of Giza, which is the tallest, is thought to have been built around 2560 BCE. At first, it was 482 feet tall. Some stones have been taken away and the hill has been worn down over time, bringing its height down to about 449 feet.
