Approximately 40km/24 miles of Cairo is the Dahshur Pyramid also known as the "Red Pyramid." A limited amount of tourists visit this pyramid to enter into its depths. I buy an entrance ticket and began climbing down steep stone steps (thankfully with a railing) that lead up to the entrance where a "Guardian" sits. A short dialogue over "baksheesh" (tips) that he wanted for doing nothing, before he lets me begin the steep ramp steps down. I never realized that visiting the inside of a pyramid means steps up, and steps down. Visualization wasn't this...

Prepare to do a bent-over version of the "Duck walk" down the entire length of this stuffy chamber until you gratefully reach bottom with thighs quivering like jelly from muscle fatigue.... Watch the video... Please don't forget to Share, Like and Subscribe! Thanks.
