During his 'Speed Does Africa' tour, YouTube streamer Darren Watkins Jr., known as IShowSpeed, gained rare access to explore Egypt's Great Pyramid, navigating dimly lit tunnels and massive 40-ton granite slabs with a guide. Egyptian authorities cleared tourists for the visit, allowing him to broadcast from ancient chambers built over 4,500 years ago, where he marveled at the engineering and questioned how it was constructed in just 20 years. The stream mixed awe at historical feats, chaotic moments like breaking up a dog fight, and a thrilling paramotor ride, drawing millions of views and fans calling it 'modern National Geographic.'
