CAIRO, Egypt–Egyptian authorities have arrested a camel driver and a woman accused of having helped two Danes scale the Great Pyramid of Giza to take a video and naked photograph, sparking outrage in the country. The nearly three-minute video has so far notched up five million views on YouTube, while stirring a public outcry in Egypt. Hvid, 23, has explained back home to the Danish newspaper Ekstra Bladet that he had “dreamed for many years of climbing the Great Pyramid” as well as of taking a naked photograph. The young Dane, who runs his own YouTube channel, said the woman in the video was not his girlfriend. The Great Pyramid is the largest in Giza, standing 146 meters (480 feet) tall, and the only surviving structure of the seven wonders of the ancient world.
