This is another news editorial on "The Lost Pyramid", a sensational mega-documentary the History Channel is about to air. Using computer technology, they uncover and recreate a supposed fourth pyramid, taller than the Great Pyramid of Giza.

The only problem is that is neither lost, taller than the Great Pyramid, in Giza, nor indeed even a Pyramid.
