Nat\'l Geographic Special: Pyramids Live - Secret Chambers Revealed

Did anyone watch this?

I thought it was cool. I was a little disappointed when the pyramid rover robot only found another stone block behind the first stone block. Though, it wasn't as disappointing as when Geraldo Rivera opened Al Capone's vault.

Maybe they'll televise the robot pentetrating the second stone block to find ... another stone block???

Anyway, what kind of flashlight was the Egyptologist using when he opened the sarcophagus? I didn't recognize.

I watched most of the show as well. I love those types of shows.....very interesting to me. But....the live aspect can leave you feeling dissappointed. 2 hours of watching to see a big.....scary......rock?? Oh well.

Watching live as they discovered the skeleton in the sarcophagus was pretty cool. I didn't happen to notice the flashlight they were using though. Now you have my interest peaked.

Found a picture at www.nationalgeographic.com

Finding the skeleton was probably the highlight of the show. I also enjoyed learning about the lifestyle the pyramid builders might have had (they might have actually been well-taken care of) and the design of the pyramid rover robot (tractor treads on the bottom and top of a collapsable frame to squeeze thru the shaft).

I also wondered what kind of lights they were using. Did anyone else have a flashback to Geraldo opening Al Capone's vault and finding...not much of anything as I recall.
