Pyramids, Giza | MCU Location Scout

The Pyramids and Sphinx in Egypt. Text: Giza, Egypt.

Here on the plateau of Giza stands forever the mightiest of human achievements.

A mysterious object streaks past the Sphinx and pyramids at Giza, bringing a snowstorm to the desert.

Stock footage of the pyramids and Sphinx was supplemented with the Silver Surfer streaking past. The group of tourists was presumably filmed on a soundstage on the same sandy set where the Bedouins, seen later when Johnny crashes after chasing Norrin Radd, were filmed.
