    The bent pyramid is so cool, it’s the second pyramid they built that fucked up. Once they had to change the angle to stop the burial chambers from collapsing, they started work on the 3rd and final Red pyramid, which they nailed and buried Sneferu in.

    They used all that knowledge that they gained in failure directly to create the great pyramid. It’s a unbroken chain of engineering marvels!
