MrBeast claims to have gotten "unrestricted access" to the inside of the Great Pyramids in latest YouTube video
MrBeast has released a new video on YouTube depicting him taking an inside look at the Egyptian pyramids, nearly two months after his initial announcement of the video.
In his initial announcement, he claimed to have gotten permission after working with the Egyptian government. However, Egypt's Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities 'categorically denied rumors' related to MrBeast's announcement, responding to speculations that the YouTuber had "rented" the Pyramids.
The statement on the ministry's official Facebook page claimed that MrBeast had obtained a permit to film outside of official working hours and that the area had not been closed to the general public "for even one hour."
Despite this, in the video, the YouTuber can be seen exploring the various locations within the pyramids over seemingly many hours, with some areas even supposedly being dangerous for the crew to traverse. They also explored the tombs in the pyramids while being guided through the experience by a local guide.
In other news, MrBeast recently posted on X to announce the release of the ninth episode of Beast Games, his ongoing Amazon Prime series depicting participants competing in tasks to earn a grand prize of $5,000,000.
