Though climbing the oldest and largest of the three pyramids could result in a three-year jail term, or something far worse if he lost his footing, "I thought the photos would be worth it," Ciesielski says, per the Telegraph. Armed with a GoPro camera, "I just started climbing." He took the first few steps quickly "so nobody would follow me and take me down," he tells Business Insider. It wasn't until he was about halfway up the 455-foot structure that police finally spotted him.
Ciesielski kept climbing and reached the top in about eight minutes. Spectacular images on his blog show the surrounding pyramids and ancient dwellings.... Ciesielski took his time with his descent for safety reasons and was back on the ground in about 20 minutes, he writes. He was then taken into police custody... Officers declined to press charges on the condition that they delete all photographic evidence of his climb. Unbeknownst to police, Ciesielski had software that allowed him to recover the deleted images...."I didn't destroy anything. I didn't hurt anyone."

Man. The things I would have done as a teenager if I had the chance. And this is one of em. lol
great view....
....but did he find any evidence of grain storage....?
Tut, tut, tut.
The TRUTH about alien construction of the Pyramids REVEALED.
See my website for details on the government cover-up
and how this explains the JFK assassination and
Hillary’s email pyramid scheme.
I once read were a guy said climbing up the pyramid isn’t a problem but climbing back down is.
I think Trump sent him.
Seriously, the police should have confiscated the camera if they wanted to discourage others.
The issue was he did not bribe the local “tour guides.”
You pay the right people and you can climb it no problem.
A non-story.
“I once read were a guy said climbing up the pyramid isn’t a problem but climbing back down is.”
Same in mountain climbing. The summit is only halfway.
Can’t blame him one bit.
I watched the sun rise from on top of a water tower once.
The Aztecs solved that problem.
Been to Egypt countless times, been to the Pyramids countless times (the nigh-time laser show is pretty good). Climbed the Pyramids many times, no problem.
Why no problem when climbing it? Easy. You bribe the local tour guide and he ensures the “site lead” gets his cut and the “police” get their cut and you are good-to-go.
The police are the “Tourist Police” and that is nothing more than a jobs program for the illiterate and they don’t get paid but, maybe, a dollar a day. So your bribe means they make out like a. . .ahem. . .a bandit.
Bribe was 40 Egyptian pounds. . .about $15.
Be careful about the camel hawkers. . .they will tell you it is free to sit on the camel and take your picture. . .thing is, when you climb on-board the camel the guy will have the camel stand up and THEN charge you 15 Egyptian Pounds to get down. . .and if you are an old tourist you can’t jump down.
Beautiful on top of the Pyramid. . .early, watching the sunrise, quiet, all before the dense smog rolls-in the view is gone.
Like the difference between takeoff and landing of an aircraft.
Funny how you make no mention of the Illuminati's central role in all this. Kind of makes me wonder if you're not really an Illuminati Master.
I'd like to go into this in more detail, but I must run down to the dollar store, as I am out of aluminum foil.
I climbed the pyramids at Teotehuacan—a long time ago. Coming down safely is much harder since you’re looking at how far the drop is the whole time, you get little help from your hands and your feet really aren’t very good at gripping.
Then I think of the kids who hump cases of soda to sell at the top and then back down with the empties.
All they found was a lot of twisted copper pipes, kettles and big jugs.
I’ll be impressed when someone does it and burns a pile of korans on top.
