Walk Around the Pyramids
This is a pretty cool video put together by a guy named Jason Clay that shows the Pyramids of Giza in a kind of stop-motion progression. Clay writes that he took one picture every ten steps as he made his way in a long walk around the pyramids, and the effect is pretty interesting.

Very, very slick. I lived in Cairo in 1985, and every weekend we'd ride horses around the pyramids. It was totally cool. This brings back the memories. Thanks for the link!

Thankyou ever so much for that, as it brings back vivid memories of where I took my new bride on our honeymoon last year.
We stayed in the Mena House Hotel, just below the Pyramids, and we enjoyed eating our breakfast looking at these fabulous structures - what a way to start the day.

@Erik...I lived there for a year with my family. I was 10, but I remember it very well. I attended the Cairo American College, an international school almost entirely composed of ex-pat-kids. It was a really awesome experience. I'd go back in a heartbeat; I'd love to tour the place with my wife.
