Dan, posting as DeDunking, uses this video to finish lines from The Joe Rogan Experience beside Jimmy Corsetti. The talk ran past three hours. Corsetti brought him, and Dan often yielded the floor because his points needed Baalbek as a runway. The claim he wanted heard is about weight. A Roman machine that could raise about six tons still could not lift the largest blocks in the Baalbek wall or the king’s chamber, and a crowd of such machines would not have fit. Three stones at ground level look Roman in their measures. Three in the wall do not, which he takes as a mark against a simple Roman origin. On the unopened void in the Great Pyramid he offers a plain motive. Leave it shut and visitors keep coming. At Gobekli Tepe he says he would dig rather than jacket the mound in concrete. A real Dendera lamp, he thinks, would have gone to private buyers at once. Missed lines, he adds, were three talkers overlapping, not a snub.
Key points
- The video is Dan’s own account of thoughts he did not finish on Joe Rogan beside Jimmy Corsetti.
- His main stone claim is that Roman lifting gear, even a machine rated near six tons, could not raise the largest Baalbek or pyramid blocks.
- He contrasts ground-level stones that look Roman in their measures with wall stones that do not.
- He wanted the Thunderstone used as a real-world scale for how heavy blocks are actually moved.
- On the unopened pyramid void he suggests a tourism motive, and at Gobekli Tepe he says he would excavate rather than encase the site.
- A real Dendera lamp, in his view, would have been sold off at once, and he blames missed lines on conversation flow rather than on his hosts.
Short quotes
the Romans were able to build a crane that could lift six tons that's amazing but not enough to even lift the stones

if there was a dendera light it almost certainly was sold on the black market as soon as that area was opened up
