A robot explorer has revealed ancient markings inside a secret chamber at Egypt's Great Pyramid of Giza.
The markings, which have lain unseen for 4,500 years, were filmed using a bendy camera small enough to fit through a hole in a stone door at the end of a narrow tunnel.
It is hoped they could shed light on why the tiny chamber and the tunnel -- one of several mysterious passages leading from the larger King's and Queen's chambers -- were originally built.
The markings take the form of hieroglyphic symbols in red paint as well as lines in the stone that may have been made by masons when the chamber was being built.

Erik Von Daniken is right!
“giggle” ;)
Benders...more fun than a person should be allowed.
“Phone home”
“No smoking beyond this point.”
ROTFLMAO! Nicely done.
If you enlarge the picture of the marking (red) they found, you can clearly see that it’s a picture of a walking alien.
