The first true pyramid of Egypt and arguably the most perfect of the Egyptian pyramids, the chambers inside the Red Pyramid have incredible acoustical resonance. That descending passage is a lot longer than he said... it's really about 200 ft long. It'd be mindblowing to go down that passage all by myself, to even reach the bottom. Alone in the dark, I might crawl back up before I went 30m, not gonna lie. I'd complain about the flashlight. yeah that's what I'd do.
It looks like the 3rd chamber is off limits to visitors other than to stick your head in and look. I would love to put some penetrating radar at the far end of that 3rd chamber to see if there are any hollow cavities there. If the pattern holds there will be another chamber parallel to the 3rd, and continuing the pattern the 5th chamber will be up and to the right of the 4th. Creating an internal upwards corkscrew. To my untrained eye looking at the far end of the 3rd chamber in this video, it looks like there's something there. Some color differences if nothing else. I'm perhaps looking at repairs and maintenance/upkeep.. but still, I'd love to be the Indiana Jones figure that combs it over. Allegedly the Great Pyramid has mysterious cavities in it that are still undiscovered so it makes me more interested in this, the Red Pyramid which is probably the most beloved Pyramid of all for the ancient Egyptians.
If I am allowed to speculate wildly I do wonder if there is a 4th and 5th chamber, the 5th perhaps the smallest of them all but also the most important. The first two chambers have 11 "baffles" and the 3rd chamber has 14 baffles, not 13.
