What is a famous building with a design flaw that most people are unaware of?

 Did you notice anything strange about this pyramid?

These are the pyramids of Giza.

Upon closer inspection, you'll notice that, unlike a typical pyramid with four sides, this one has eight sides.

Some argue that it is a structural design flaw because Egyptian engineers and designers cannot properly explain the weight distribution of the structure.

Others suggest that the mantle beneath was reinforced by the slight inward slope on each side, which helped to increase the pyramid's stability. Like many things about the pyramids, this remains a mystery.

The eight sides are easier to see up close, but the silhouette is particularly brightly rendered, making it even more effective when viewed from various angles.

And this is another reason why silly ancient alien shows are so popular.

Is forgiveness always a virtue or is it sometimes a flaw?

Some great Indian leaders forgave their would be assassins.

Mahatma Gandhi : This Indian leader faced five assassination's attempts.

His car was bombed in Pune that left many hurt.

Efforts were made to derail his special train near Pune, Maharashtra.

A bomb exploded during daily prayer meeting at Birla House, Delhi.

Nathuram Godse , his would be assassin unsuccessfully tried to attack with a dagger.

Forgiveness : Despite protests from his followers ; Gandhi ji forgave his assassins.

He reportedly asked cops not to register case against his attackers.

Assassination : On 30th October 1948, assassination was attempted on sixth time.

Unfortunately, it was successful that left every one shocked.

Facts : Gandhi ji was the epitome of forgiveness; his assassins weren’t !

Kindness towards incorrigible doesn’t make sense.

Perhaps : The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the naive forgive and forget; the wise forgive but do not forget. : Thomas Szasz
