Yeah no doubt, I don't think they were claiming to be the first either. There's a surprising amount of hate in response to the photos - many people are bantering about desecration, disrespect and damage. The pyramids were open to climb publically through the mid 80s, and were only closed because of the risk of falling.
In fact, 'we', as in the last few generations are probably the exception to the rule of climbing the pyramids..
