BUILDING PYRAMIDS WITH WIND & BEER. The Theories of Dr. Maureen Clemmons, Transformations.
Kite Obelisk Project @ Cal Tech EDU
"The prevailing theory entails the use of manual labor and ramps, and I think the Egyptians were smart: they used a combination of ramps to walk on, manual labor to manipulate the work, as well as kites. So I don't think one excludes the other; I think our theory is one that can enhance and augment the current prevailing theories." DR MAUREEN CLEMMONS DOCUMENTARY
Zahi Hawass, the curator for the Giza Plateau, calls Dr. Maureen Clemmons a “pyramidiot.”
Dr. Clemmons is the president of the change management consultant firm, “Transformations” in Winnetka, California.
Along with numerous Egyptologists and archaeologists, Hawass excoriates Maureen’s “new” theories of wind-based pyramid-building because they make the last two thousand years of speculation look like… well, hot air.
The theory is simple: instead of thousands of slaves pulling ropes, the Egyptians may have used scaffolds and kites. (See videos above, diagrams below.) Beer, ubiquitous in Egyptian culture, was used to stabilize roadways for log rollers. Ingenious theories, proven physically feasible by Dr. Clemmons and her research team in the field, aided by NASA, JPL, CalTech, Kiteship and the American Institute of Architects, to name a few sponsors.
After a decade disproving the Egyptologists’ slave theories, through her field work and unending circuit of national lectures, Dr. Clemmons felt the time was right for a feature film.
Thus was born STONE CRAZY, a tale of lusty immortality and forbidden passion, a tale of sabotage and subterfuge, a tale of trying to find the best way to move 2.5 million two-ton stones in one lifetime - and still have time for a beer...
STONE CRAZY – a modern comedy about ancient Egypt.
Zahi Hawass is gonna HATE it!
1. The simple principles that brought Dr. Clemmons' ingenious theories to life: a kite, a scaffold, a 16-ton obelisk.
2. The wind raises the kite, the kite raises the obelisk...
(see the video above!)
3. The kite flies high in any direction, threaded through the scaffold - for the obelisk, the only direction is UP...
4. Any Way The Wind Blows... the kite is low, but the obelisk continues its rise.
