To reveal the mysteries that are still contained inside the great -- joining us now doctor Bob -- the author of secret of the great pyramid.

He's -- -- apologist at CW post college that building that was burning is something that you know well.

Yes the French archaeological institute if it's terrible thing -- -- fabulous documents they're napoleon's letters things like that when he was in Egypt and it's priceless and apparently all golf.

A lot of that -- it looked really bad.

-- You were just in Egypt a while ago couple weeks ago trying to you know do some explorations in this kind of environment how dangerous is that.

Tell you truth it's not that dangerous it's only carbonneau museums are burning it's it's all in the dumbest idea that one area that we always see on television.

That's the year it's concentrated there you go in another part of Egypt you know things happening.

I'm so that you can get a couple of right there in Cairo yes all right so but of the of the great pyramid of Giza sits just outside Carol -- and and that is holding.

One of the tantalizing mystery is that that you and some other scientists think you may be able to get an answer to.

Well I think I think the team that's working on it will get an answer within the next year sort of things calm down.

They'll go in with a little robotic cameras and figure out what that these serious -- this for let let's talk about better and you see it represented graphically hear it in these pictures -- -- screen now.

There are a couple of eight inch shafts that go what hundreds of feet in a couple hundred feet -- 225.

Feet from thirty feet and what's B -- what's at the end of those -- that's the big question.

Some people think may be treasure maybe it's a secret room where you wind -- Ferrell was very they're very some treasure -- like that.

Others think it's a religious thing it's for the -- soul to go up the -- -- out to the stars you can't send a person in there it's too small -- real -- or with robots right right.

And at the end -- these.

-- -- -- right yes that's mysterious and made these these doors and a drill leaving a hole through one of them and put -- little camera through.

And you seem to be handled on the other side but that is another door so they're not there yet but that they're about to get through I think they will the ancient and hieroglyphics have they decide how those hieroglyphics that are on the door of something they look like -- marks that if they look like the people don't think the pyramids.

Left our calculations may be just sort of 200 for -- here through -- -- I think -- numbers Q Kilroy was here it's fascinating stuff -- Bob -- when we -- -- in.

Get a view inside those rooms hope to have you back to explain what they found thank John and.
