Donald Trump wasn't completely lying about his near-death helicopter experience after all, but the 2024 Republican presidential nominee did get a few details mixed-up. For one, the Black man Trump mistook for former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown was actually former Los Angeles city councilman and state senator, Nate Holden. "I guess we all look alike," said Holden in an interview with Politico. He added, "Willie is the short Black guy living in San Francisco. I'm a tall Black guy living in Los Angeles."

The Pyramid of Djoser, the oldest of Egypt's iconic pyramids, may have been built with the help of a unique hydraulic lift system, according to a study published August 5, 2024, in the open-access journal PLOS ONE by Xavier Landreau from CEA Paleotechnic Institute, France, and colleagues.

The Pyramid of Djoser, also known as the Step Pyramid, is believed to have been built around 2680 BCE as a funerary complex for the Third Dynasty pharaoh Djoser. Yet the exact method of its construction remains unclear. read more
