The nose fell off the Spinx, not the pyramid. Most believe it was due to wind erosion but no one is really sure why it fell off. In ancient Egypt it was a common practice to remove the nose from statues and drawings of a disgraced leader so maybe the early egyptians removed it because they were upset with whoever the Spinx statue was supposed to represent.
