The Revelation of the Pyramids (French: La révélation des pyramides) is a pseudo-scientific documentary directed by Patrice Pooyard and released in 2010, then widely disseminated on the Internet from 2012 until 2023 when the film was pulled down from YouTube. Written by Patrice Pooyard and Jacques Grimault, the film highlights pseudo-historical theories put forward by the latter.
Alignment of sites
The film presents the view of Jacques Grimault's unpublished works about the construction of the Pyramids of Giza and other ancient archaeological sites around the world.[1]
His main point is that there is a slow cycle of geological changes on Earth, including the change of the magnetic poles, which cause great catastrophes about every 26 000 years, and he believes there was another human civilisation before ours[whose?] which was destroyed by such catastrophes. Pyramids and other ancient buildings were built by them, and the Pyramids of Giza were not primarily tombs, but rather a mathematical riddle, its answer being a warning of this cycle. Grimault views the current global warming as a forerunner of these catastrophic events.
The film claims that the Giza pyramid complex are aligned on a "leaning equator" of 30 degrees from the traditional equator, along with other archaeological sites : Easter Island, Machu Picchu, Ollantaytambo, the Paracas civilization, the Dogon country and Mohenjo-daro,[2] so as to be placed equidistant from the magnetic poles of the earth.
