The Great Pyramids exact latitude is the same as the speed of light

Yeah, well Google has told me the dumbest way to get to a part of town when I know the general area well but punched in the exact address to get to a job. I'll just ignore it until I get close..

Though it hasn't sent me into a lake or of a cliff yet, so there's that.
 

Decimal location is equally valid. According to Wikipedia also, that's a latitude of 29.979167

So there's another problem with this myth. The location only matches the speed of light to five digits, not nine as claimed.

I'm actually disappointed. I prefer a mystery to a hoax.
 
Wait until Google builds AI into their navigation. It'll drive us all into lakes or off cliffs as part of its inexorable plan to exterminate humanity!

Anyway, If the latitude of the Great Pyramid and the speed of light actually matched to 6 decimal places, well it would still be a coincidence, but a pretty rare one. Literally one-in-a-million.

But they only match to two places. One in a hundred. That's far less interesting. Boring even.
 
I checked it out myself with google maps. The latitude is right at the peak of one of the pyramids. Go to the pyramids in Giza with maps. Change the latitude to 29.979258. The peak of the great pyramid will be exactly in the center of the map vertically.

If you convert the decimal to degrees, you get 29°58′45″.

There are 12 inches in a foot, and Jesus had 12 apostles, therefore the Imperial measurement system is the holy one while the metric system was invented by Satan to get people to reject Christ lol.

I think this guy (If You Know, You Know) used to preach about the sacred qualities of "The Pyramid Inch".

What does that mean that there are 100 centimeters in a meter and there were 10 Commandments?

The same type of coincidence that the sun is 400 times the width of the moon and also 400 times the distance from earth as the moon?

Now that is one hell of a coincidence. What were the chances that out of all the stars, planets, and natural satellites, the one we inhabit meets those sizes/distances? Pretty astronomical!

I see what you did there...nicee closing.
 
We'd all be better off if the tribe of monkeys never ate those figs.
