Not to long ago they found the place where the stones, or blue stones, came from and I still wonder how the hell they were able to transport such heavy stones for such a long dietance over such a rought terrain.
Even now days it would be almost inpossible......levitation?

[QUOTE=Ponce].... Even now days it would be almost inpossible......levitation?[/QUOTE] Did you not click the link in the first post? :shocking: The solution to moving and raising such blocks looks like a no-brainer now.

That's pretty amazing. Did you see what was printed on the side of the block, [url="http://www.theforgottentechnology.com/Page1.htm"]The Forgotten Technology ?[/url] He's got his own site.

Sorry Whip but I was unable to dowload the item and that's why my comment was only about moving the Blue Stones from the quarry 145 miles away to where it was set up.

Very interesting, indeed. The sight of him moving that whole barn was pretty cool.

For the benefit of those who are on slooooowww (really slow 14.4) dialup, would someone give a brief discription of what's in the clip? Thank you.
It would take about two hours to load the link and view it on a slooowww connection.

First he moves a couple of 1 ton blocks with a slight push., well rolls them actually. Picture the teeth on a sprocket; note the triangular groove. Now flatten that pattern out and widen it, set a block on edge into the groove and when itââ¬â¢s pushed a little it goes off balance and rotates over and the next edge falls into the next groove. Is that a clear picture? The next scene shows him rotate a 1 ton block on the ground with the aid of a rock centered beneath it. The next scene he shows how to raise a long slab of rock/concrete weighing around 10-20 tons by himself. He rests the middle on a block of wood. He then manually places weights onto one end to get the slab to teeter to one side. This causes a small gap between the slab and block of wood on one side. He then placed a piece of wood in that gap and moved the weight to the other side and again placed a piece of wood in the opposite gap. He continues that process to any height he desires. He also shows how he moved a 28x40 barn using these techniques.

The reason that I used the word "levitation" is because of the "Coral Castle" in Fla........key word "Coral Castle" for a lot more.
=================xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx=======================
Often equated with the engineering feats of Stonehenge and the Great Pyramid of Egypt, Coral Castle was built by reclusive eccentric Edward Leedskalnin, who single-handledly erected gigantic quarried stones resulting in his enigmatic castle.
Originally located in the tiny town of Florida City in the l920's, the site was later moved to it's current location just south of Miami, Florida. Ed is said to have built the Castle for his "sweet 16" - supposedly, a woman from his native Latvia who had promised to marry him and then changed her mind at the last minute. The fact it, it was a sheilded allusion to his discovery - the ability to redirect the forces of gravity using hyperdimensional physics: tesseract, hypercubus.
A feast of coral imagery, the site lies behind massive 8' high coral rock walls on a ten-acre tract, protecting it from the sprawling suburban city of Homestead. The coral walls fit together with amazing accuracy even though they were constructed without cement. These technical accomplishments have astounded engineers and scientists.
A small statured man barely weighing one hundred pounds, Ed quarried one piece of coral from the earth weighing over twenty-eight tons and then erected it himself! His accomplishments include a rocking chair weighing thousands of pounds that can be rocked with a finger, and an underground structure reached by climbing down a one-piece spiral stone staircase to a subterranean refrigerator. A five thousand pound heart-shaped coral rock table with a red blooming ixora growing from its center, is believed to be the world's largest valentine according to Ripley's.
