GIZA, Egypt, Jan. 29 (UPI) -- A German 18-year-old shared footage of his daring climb to the top of Egypt's Great Pyramid of Giza, which took him only 8 minutes.

Andrej Ciesielski posted a video to YouTube showing highlights of his 8-minute climb to the top of the pyramid, which attracted the attention of police.


"I think the police shouted in Arabic to come down but I just listened to music and enjoyed the climb," Ciesielski told Buzzfeed. "I went to the police station for maybe one hour. They asked me many questions about why I did this, but they let me go."

The teenager posted pictures taken atop the landmark on Facebook.
