Amazing Drone Footage of Nubian Pyramids | Expedition Raw

if something goes wrong out there I’m
gonna be the one that has to fix it it’s
gonna be all on me and that’s a lot of
pressure to deal with you don’t know how
close the things you are so I’d be
flying at a pyramid I’m like man I
really hope we don’t crash into this
thing because I don’t I have no idea how
close I am after the helicopter takes
off I’ll sit for a second with it just
in the air to kind of get into the
perspective of the helicopter now I’m
comfortable and now I can fly because
I’m seeing what the helicopter sees I am
the helicopter
Jeff ember links an archaeologist and
he’s been in Sudan for a few years now
excavating a place called el kuru so I
was there to get aerial coverage of the
pyramids being able to go in the air
allows you to spatially connect all
these different elements and kind of
gain a better geographical understanding
of what’s happening at the site
I remember there was these granite lions
that were outside of this one temple and
I’m like imagining who carved that thing
you know and it’s like this weird
connection you have to somebody that
lived an incredibly long time ago but
it’s also not just the connection to the
past but linking a people that currently
exists to this past culture the Nubians
had their own culture and they were
building their own pyramids they had a
separate Nubian kingdom it’s really cool
especially for the Sudanese people to
get this identity that’s not just
associated with Egypt what and it’s
really great to be a part of
