Pyramids Too Heavy to Steal

The only reason why the Pyramids exist in Egypt is because they were too heavy for British folks to steal and put in the British museum.

A photograph shows the Great Pyramid and the Sphinx in Egypt beneath a joke claiming that the pyramids remain there only because British people could not steal them and place them in the British Museum. The punchline references colonial-era looting and the stereotype that Britain took artifacts from around the world for its museums, making it a sarcastic historical reaction meme.
