The Pyramids Were Machines? – Geoffrey Drumm, DemystifySci
Sun 9:15 am +00:00, 5 Apr 2026 1What if the pyramids were never meant to be tombs at all? In today’s conversation with Geoffrey Drumm, @thelandofchem, we explore a radical but physically grounded hypothesis: that ancient Egyptian pyramids functioned as industrial machines, integrating chemistry, pressure, materials science, and natural electricity at monumental scale. Drawing on experimental models, geological evidence, and global architectural parallels, the discussion reframes ancient civilization not as primitive or symbolic, but as deeply practical and technologically fluent. If true, this view doesn’t romanticize the past, it forces us to reconsider how much functional knowledge about nature has been lost, misclassified, or misunderstood.
Why do dragons have scales? Fashion statement. Unlikely. Electricity conduits. No need to eat all the time if the body gets power environmentally. The pyramids were maybe cut away rather than built.
