Was it worth it?
To this day the men remained in Germany and were not prosecuted by their government, which received a huge amount of pressure from the Egyptian government. Needless to say, they can never return back to Egypt because of what they had done, was it all worth it in the end?
Probably not, this means that they will never be able to study the pyramids that they love so much anymore. One foolish thing that they did will now block them for the rest of their lives and they can never go back as real archaeologists. We guess that in the end, they learned a hard lesson.
