Act

Gantenbrink studied graphics and design at the University of Fine Arts in Berlin and later in Hanover . As an engineer and pyramid researcher, he is self-taught . After several years of research in Egypt in and around the Cheops pyramid, Gantenbrink and his research team finally came across the sealing stone of the southern shaft of the four so-called air shafts, which were hewn in a U-shape and one behind the other, in March 1993 as part of the Upuaut-2 expedition used stone blocks exist. However, after he had a falling out with the director Rainer Stadelmann - he is said to have sold images without authorization without the permission of the German Archaeological Institute - he was no longer there when the shaft was opened nine years later. Gantenbrink developed the Upuaut -2 robotic vehicle used for the expedition , as well as the Upuaut-1 used for the first Upuaut expedition .
