Dr. Zahi Hawass, an Egyptian archaeologist, debunks the myth of the Curse of the Pharaohs, explaining that the curses inscribed on tomb walls were meant as deterrents rather than supernatural threats. He attributes illnesses and deaths associated with tomb explorations to invisible germs released by mummies and organic materials, not mystical forces. Hawass emphasizes the importance of proper ventilation before entering tombs to ensure safety. He criticizes media sensationalism and Hollywood producers for perpetuating the curse myth. Hawass concludes that there is no curse known as the Curse of the Pharaohs or the Curse of Tutankhamun, urging a rational understanding of historical events.
