A Rare Viewpoint

0_8e7fe_7a1b043c_XXL 0_8e7fc_f480fc04_XXLTwo of a series of pictures taken from the top of the 4,400 year old Great Pyramid at Giza by three Russian tourists last week.

Climbing the pyramid has been illegal since 1951 and is punishable by up to three years imprisonment. The tourists, who weren’t caught, claim they saw signatures in many languages engraved on the stones at the top, including that of a Russian tsar.

The photos went viral after being posted on the LiveJournal page of ringleader Vitaly Raskalov.

The three have since apologised for their actions.
