0:00 thank you [Music] so how many monies do you guys think it would cost to build the Great Pyramid if they were going to build it today whoa today and you can't use any indentured servitude or you cannot use the same Union work if it's a union job then it's a trillion oh my God if it's Union if it's immigrant labor then it's probably a billion damn that's a ████ ton if it's union job by the state of California then it will probably be like the construction would have been started and it would cost a trillion and then they would like lose the money and be like where did the money go and it'll never get finished and they didn't even build and they didn't put a brick down yet that amount of money would probably just go to the r d to figure out how to build it you

0:50 don't have to do that first yeah wow and then all the soft costs and the red tape will never get to the actual like sarcophagus in there yeah so check it out the pyramid 756 feet long on each side 700 481 feet high 2.3 million Stones weighing 3 tons each whoa for a total mass of 6.5 million tons holy ████ I'm gonna try to build it today it would cost they're saying 5 billion wow which to me like Joe said it seems like there's no corruption involved five billion five billion that's if they've gave the contract of maybe Legoland they do you know what's funny yeah well this is not funny it's kind of sad but they spent like 10 billion on this rail in Hawaii That was supposed to be finished like a decade ago

1:40 it's the most 10 billion yeah it's it's one of the most expensive rail projects on Earth and on Oahu it's like a mile long and it's so ████ it's so bad a mile long it's like ████ small it doesn't even go to Waikiki or the airport it goes from like the West Side to like this one little stadium that they're gonna break down anyway the corruption and the incompetence is like ████ mind-blowing Aloha Stadium right yeah I think it's that one but they're shutting they're gonna close that one down anyway really yeah we're gonna have to swap it looks like ████ in there have you seen it I kind of like it did the did the corrupt money from this project mainly go to people not from Hawaii we are I guess the state is going through an audit through it and it's not releasing ████ yet like did people come

2:31 in to work on it and take the money and then bounce I think that's one of the things that they're talking about because like they said the cars were uh they hired some Italian company to build it not the Italian and then like sounds Mafia to me right yeah and then like to me I'm like Japan's like right there and they're really ████ good at building rails you know what Hawaii needs Italians aren't known for their ████ I'll tell you what Hawaii means a ████ real a monorail in California we try to do remember the high-speed rail I voted for it yeah exactly LA to ████ NorCal how many billions did they did they eat up for that just like and it disappears disappeared didn't do it even derail didn't even get completed nothing happened it didn't no no it was ████ dude we're all it's over we're all done it's over

3:21 here the one that's going to Nevada the Vegas one the it was I think it was supposed to be the hyperlooper yeah yeah I think um anisco's company bought it but they've already done rail projects and completed it bright line and they're private so it's not government okay so it's it sounds like it's more promising are they already building it um they're going to start either this year or next year but they already have a proof of concept I think in Orlando so they've already built stuff yeah and it's not government so it feels like it's gonna actually happen um but I think it's supposed to go from Vegas to LA in two hours wow really and so you get to just sit there and work which makes my move to Las Vegas a little bit more promising Colleen Summerlin yo dude they built the original pyramid 4 000

4:12 workers over the course of 20 years 4 000 only that it was four thousand that's what they estimate with a piece of Rock they use strength they use sleds apparently they use ropes apparently there's some methods we don't quite know that they did because obviously those are ████ huge huge Stones yeah ████ cranes made by aliens we can't get MythBusters can't figure this out the posters can't build a ████ pyramid Nick well you know there's money would that cost how about to lift like a three ton rock you know they can't figure that part MythBusters lost all credibility when they did that McDonald's special what was the McDonald's special for that one McDonald's did a partnership with MythBusters to show that McDonald's was was making nuggets out of chicken no you

5:02 guys remember that yeah it was with that Asian guy that passed away oh ████ they did like a thing to uh to prove because you know they wanted to clean up their image do they know that people don't care yeah people don't give a ████ I'll just shovel that in my mouth go on there they're not like that'll be authentic ████ yeah who cares about how healthy McDonald's is you're a ████ ████ if you like go there and think that it should be healthy if I if I buy chicken nuggets and I opened it and I took a bite and it tasted like chicken and there's like bone or whatever that gross me the ████ out I'm pissed like if it tasted like Wingstop it would gross me the ████ out yeah imagine it's dark meat that gross me the ████ out I'm like this is where's that goo ████ it's supposed to be sponges yeah

5:52 I want some ████ I want to chew into a delicious eraser yeah an eraser and mustard and then I want to eat it yeah with chicken flavoring yeah deep fried eraser Elmer's Restaurant sauce did um so if they did do the pyramids again what feature would you want it to have a basketball court basketball court at the top oh ████ what happens if the ball falls out oh no no no it's it's covered rolls down you're see when people would do uh like when you go to Disneyland and they were like Walt Disney built all these secret compartments and they had like diagrams I mean yeah basketball court yeah but it's like there's no way there's a ████ basketball court there unless I'm the ████ there is in the what Matterhorn yeah it's a half court they do they said

6:43 they have a half court at the princess castle Yeah no they do they yeah they have actual video footage of this yeah they have real pictures I'm not buying them Sleeping Beauty is capsule yep there's even a jersey made out of her outfit yeah but they should do something like that in the pyramids because I feel like what's in the pyramids now booby traps and ████ no one's gone down there nothing none of us no one's going down there but apparently there was a tune but they never found nobody's man see the Titanic people that went down there they should go check out the pyramids that's what they should I think there's a Halal Guys it's just a cart but yeah like I've always been curious of what's actually there because I know that no one's really good they're secret compartments yeah there's like a bunch of like weird hauls and ████ okay there's no document or something there are it's they're just boring really because the truth is always boring yeah that's true it's

7:34 better to watch Indiana Jones people think it was a power plant is that what a power plant really that's that's the new Theory because they're like there's no there was it's like there's no tomb there's no coffin there's nothing there's no function well people also think the pyramids are just the tip of the infrastructure that it goes all the way down oh yeah they say it goes like this and it's actually a diamond we can't start digging just a little bit spoon dig yeah yeah then you could have gone like a little bit and be like it does go down yeah yo how sick if one day that should just [Laughter] but the Egyptian government won't let anybody wow well yeah they're like don't ████ with our relics what about the the Sphinx do people talk about that is that still no one talks about that huh is there no mystery around that's supposed to be older than the pyramids apparently

8:24 same idea there's a theory about you dig enough in the Sphinx is like the top of some kind of structure too yeah it's like the majority of the infrastructure is actually all underground yeah that's crazy it's a ████ hat it's a ████ hat and then it used to be a lion's face yeah the ████ fell off right no then they carved somebody else's face because they're like a pharaoh was like looks better if it was me oh they've manually changed it yeah it used to be Alliance that's one of the things and then some time travelers were like I remember when it was a lion's face yeah sometimes but then they um real talk though science talk so where the paws are they're saying like um the reason why I was older is because there's water erosion around all of it and then

9:16 they're like oh this was during a time when it was flooding and then the Nile was here and all that but then the pyramids don't have it so they're like the Sphinx was probably here first before the pyramids were built so it's older than the pyramids do people think the Sphinx is built by aliens too some people if you watch Ancient Aliens people think everything that's cool is built by aliens yeah if it's cool and it's old it's built by alien do you think it's a cop-out yep yeah they're just saying there's no way humans back then were smart enough and I'm like and humans are always ████ smart dude but dude as soon as we if you know all this alien s███'s happening right now we're in the middle of all of it if we do find that ████ out I think some guys are gonna get dunked on dude that's true some of these Smarties are gonna get dunked on dude what about sucralose you think what's the name George sukulos do you think he's gonna be like rubbing everyone's face the guy

10:07 that did aliens guys yeah this guy you think he's gonna just dunk on everyone I think he's gonna need a whole Clause of the basketball shoes but what if we asked the aliens we're like did you guys build those or they're like no it's whack we think that's just whack you guys so then he can't really slam dunk so like we think the that looks like ████ yeah and you guys love talking about it you guys will go visit it you guys think you're so cool you guys go visit it all the time take little pictures of it [Music] oh [Music] foreign [Music]
