In 1966, two Brazilian men were found dead on Vintém Hill under bizarre circumstances that continue to perplex investigators and conspiracy theorists alike. Lying side by side, their bodies were discovered wearing matching lead masks—shields with no eyeholes—alongside cryptic notes. Were they victims of a cult ritual, a failed experiment, or something even more otherworldly?

Mai Galal: The Woman Who Dressed the Pharaohs 58:33

21 days ago58:33

58:33

Meet Mai Galal , the visionary stylist who has revolutionized Egypt's fashion landscape through her extraordinary career spanning decades. Far from an overnight success, Mai's journey began with a needle and thread at age eight, crafting homemade outfits for her Barbie dolls and transforming orange peels into artistic expressions. That same creative spirit would eventually lead her to style Egypt's most prestigious event in recent history – the globally televised Pharaohs Parade. In our conversation, Mai opens up about navigating her "double life" – balancing the glamour of high-profile styling with the grounded reality of motherhood. She shares intimate details of her morning routine, which transformed after a health scare forced her to become more present and mindful in her daily life. Rather than following trendy 10-step skincare routines, Mai swears by what she calls "ancient Egyptian remedies" – olive oil, black seed oil, and simple traditional approaches that have stood the test of time. Mai has styled everyone from iconic Egyptian stars Mona Zaki , Youssra , and Angham , to Amina Khalil , Nelly Karim , Yasmin Sabri and more. Don't forget to subscribe, share, and leave a review!
