Horses- Mystery in the pyramid workers' burial site - My tour guide Ali, asked me if i wanted to see a 3000 year old 'still-existing' mystery. Very eagerly, I agreed, and he took me behind the pyramids, to a place that didn't look any different from the rest of the desert, to me as a stranger there for the first time. He just said "Take care". That was it. I knew, something was going to happen, and I was rather alert. In a few seconds of galloping alone, my horse suddenly toppled over, and fell with its feet up on the air at one particular spot. I just had enough time to jump off, or else I would have either broken my hip or got paralyzed by the entire weight of the horse over me. Mysterious as it is, every horse and camel that crossed that 20 square feet of land, toppled over, as if by instinct that they had to respect someone or something there. It was truly scary, and extremely mysterious to see them paralyzed and motionless for a few minutes as if they were frozen in time, and the spot is very close to the Pyramid workers' burial site.
