Soaring above the iconic Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, paragliders spotted a stray dog soaking in the views of the ancient wonder before expertly navigating down the monumental structure.
Paraglider Alex Lang captured the footage of the stray hound during an overview of the Egyptian landmark on Monday, Oct. 14.
In Lang's video, the light-colored dog is seen pacing around the top layer of the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the World. The Great Pyramid of Giza is 481 ft. high and about 4,600 years old.
"He was barking at birds," Lang told news agency Storyful, per local Los Angeles outlet KTLA.
