Moment dog who scaled Giza pyramid casually descends 481ft landmark

This is the moment a dog who scaled the Great Pyramid of Giza is seen casually descending the landmark.

The pup made headlines this week after a paraglider spotted it loitering near the top of the pyramid – which stands at 481-foot-tall.

Now, it has been caught on camera scampering back down yesterday (16 October).

In the clip, shared by What’s The Jam, the dog races down the side of the pyramid, easily navigating the large chunks of limestone.

A local employee at RetreaTours – a carbon-negative tourism company – caught the incredible moment on camera.

Sharing the footage online, employee Lauren Rathvon wrote: “I saw this dog climbing down the Great Pyramid in Giza like it was nothing!

“It’s just a hop, skip, and a jump for them.”

She joked: “It’s [a] good place to get away from the crowds!”

The Egyptian landmark was built more than 4,500 years ago and is one of the top global tourist hotspots, named as one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
