In 1816, a destitute, 6-foot-7-inch Italian circus strongman named Giovanni Belzoni was stranded in Cairo with only £7 to his name. To survive, he accepted an "impossible" job from the British Consul: move a seven-ton colossal head of Ramesses the Great from the ruins of Thebes to the Nile, a task that had defeated Napoleon's best engineers.
This is the incredible true story of Giovanni "The Great" Belzoni, one of the most audacious and controversial figures in the history of archaeology. Follow this untrained but brilliant adventurer as he uses sheer force of will, ingenuity, and brute strength to succeed where everyone else had failed.
His success catapulted him into a whirlwind of discovery. He would go on to unearth the magnificent, sand-buried temple of Abu Simbel, discover the pristine, painted tomb of Pharaoh Seti I in the Valley of the Kings, and be the first modern man to enter the Pyramid of Khafre at Giza. Operating in a ruthless era of treasure hunting, Belzoni's methods were often destructive, but his discoveries were so spectacular they would change the world's understanding of ancient Egypt forever.
