Hello northstar,

"Electric currents streaming out of stressed igneous rocks"

I guess this would be one instance of "physical" scientific evidence.
This was demonstrated in a documentary I saw, where a small slab of granite was compressed mechanically. As a result of compression an electrical current was measured with attached electrodes. I would think the kings chamber has a tremendous amount of pressure bearing down on it, enough to generate a current ?
EMF meters are inexpensive handheld meters and I also wonder why no one has taken one or another type of meter into the pyramid. When I finally get there.........

Here we describe a simple experiment that subjects igneous
rocks (granite, anorthosite, gabbro) to stress. By judiciously
connecting electrodes to the rocks we show that the
stressed rock volume turns into a battery: it generates,
which flow out without externally applied voltage. These
self-generated currents may hold the key to understand
how powerful electric currents can be generated deep in
the Earth prior to major earthquakes and what kind of signals
they send out.
