Well first off, they only show a concrete "road" once, and it was his back porch. Besides that, he never uses flat concrete surfaces besides the obvious stone blocks. And yes, concrete was most definitely being used 4,500 years ago.
I don't see why you even had to mention flat concrete roads. Just because he's using a concrete slab doesn't mean he's implying they used them 4,500 years ago.
@Creativeffectstudios First off, concrete was invented by the Romans about 2000 years ago (2500 after stonehenge). The reason I mentioned it is because his technique literally pivots on using a flat, hard and durable surface to balance a X-ton block of stone on a pebble.
Secondly, your claim that Britain had "primative stone pathways" 4,500 years ago is laughable, if we did we would find archaeological evidence of them - we don't.
So in summary, you most definitely ARE fucking retarded!
When in that sentence did I use the word "Britain"? I mentioned that there were stone pathways back then, but nothing about Britain. You're honestly freaking out, all I said was that the stones weren't flat because of erosion. I haven't fought on the internet in a few years, and I regret doing it now. I forgot that 80% of the people on Youtube are immature.
They didn't even have to have flat concrete surfaces back then, anyways. They had primitive stone pathways which could have had the same effect with a bit more difficulty. You're forgetting that this guy's doing it alone just to make a point. There was likely more than 1 person who made the Stonehenge. Honestly you just made a moot point, and calling me "fucking retarded" won't make you look any more right than I am.
now lets see him get the multi tone blocks onto the top like stone henge without any machinery ... also lets see him quarry them thousands of miles away and transport them there and how about use stone thats not light concrete ... lets see him do this with granite and Diorite ... this video only proves you can lean a block into the ground nothing else, it doesn't even show you how he got the block on top of that seesaw .... this is ridiculous lol, doesn't solve anything.
@WhiteKnightDubstep Stupid youtube commenter doesn't notice that only one of the blocks is moved on concrete, and that the bits of stonehenge he does build is indeed on ordinary ground.
@WhiteKnightDubstep You've just watched a guy move stones under his own ingenuity and strength that would otherwise take serious heavy machinary to move and you have the fucking ignorance to call him a "stupid redneck"? All because you think you know the full history to Stonehenge? Go back to wanking over Skrillex or some shit, cunt.
@YOUNOTCOOKING This guy's way of moving heavy objects in the 21st century certainly is ingenious... but it has got nothing to do with Stonehenge. ALL of the stones you see him move are on smooth concrete bases. If the people who built Stonehenge used anything similar we would expect to find archaeological evidence to support the fact. We don't.
not trying to diss the man. great stuff. but the only thing is they did it on grass. the weight of the block would sink the pebble into the soil so it wouldnt move at all :/
@ehou the first technique that got the block 3 ft in the air could take one to the height of vertical rocks. Getting on top of 2 rocks might be harder tho :P
Unbelievable how people insist on alien involvement when there is not a single plausible piece of evidence suggesting it. Anywhere. Ever. Lol. And the comments are full of questions supposed to disprove the theory when they would have said this would never work before they saw it. Get over it. This is one man who figured out something you never could. He could figure out how to move it across even ground and then you'll harass him about the weight. He'll lift more weight and it won't be enough.
So you put a small rock under the massive one. How did you lift the rock up enough to get the small one under there? How do you move these across, you know, huge grass rolling hills instead of flat concrete.
Interesting stuff but these are not megaliths. Still nice technique. I want to know how the ancients hoisted real megaliths, multiple hundreds of ton stones high up into the air to put them into place. Pulley with thousands of man power behind them?
wow epic fail. The weights of the objects are so different....... now I would like him to move 200 tons, then he'll have proven his point to me. Then the thousands. This stuff was even disproven on the history channel.....
To compare this to what people have done in the past, is just stupid. "Rock of the pregnant woman" is 1200 TONS. The pyramids of giza were build in 22 years. In other words, they cut, transported, and placed 1 block every 9 seconds for 22 years. But this is apparently how they did it..........
@chris32393 9 seconds times at least 100,000 (if not more) men working is 900,000 seconds of work = 250 hrs, i think it's plausible this man or someone with the skill set they had back then could cut move and transport a block in 250 hrs or 10 men in 25 hrs.
try it with the 130 ton stones stonehenge is dwarfed compared to many other sites.We can build stonehendge with a big crane not so with those massive stones.Point is the ancients were no dimmies and obviously they had better technology than us.
@KroovyRookas Really? I mean he's basically showing you the difficult part which is actually lifting these objects, after seeing the method it's just a matter of applying it in different ways.
To put the stones on top you could simply keep lifting it higher (like he was doing before he tipped it over) raise it all the way up then stand the two other stones and sit the first one on top. So raise the stone first then the legs, just a guess but it's certainly possible
no, kratos came and made em, it was a puzzle which the gods could not complete, so he went to youtube and searched how to fix the GOW puzzle and then.................
OKZ! BUT IF YOU USED THE LOGIC , THE QUESTION IS ..
HOW YOU CAN CUTTING MANY TREE ?? TODAY YOU WASTE TIME AROUND 5 MIN. WHIT A CHAINSAW. AND IN THIS TIME JUST HAVE A PREHISTORIC KNIFE, I THINK CALL ESTAFETA AND ORDER 1000 TREE JAJA THAT DOESNT HAVE LOGIC.
using magnetic fields you can do that shit. Someone told me today that you can move heavy stones and shit with sound too. Something to do with vibrating it making it bounce or some shit. nuts!
so how did they bring the stones from wales to salsbry plaln then which is over 500 miles away quary them cut them and then erect them so they catch the summer solctice and the winter one each year with out fail over 2000 years before christ then

genius invention...however......stonehenge...according to my belief was built using MAGIC....levitation and teleportation....Merlin assisted with this....though to excact the alignment and placement, a device such as this may have been used, and a lot of man power, pure strength as welll....I agree with this concept as well as the use of magic....
david, you are goddamn retarded. he just showed that you don't need magic. not only that, but when merlin allegedly existed was thousands of years after stonehenge was built.
i believe stonhenge was raised with harmonics, its a secret that you dont hear about, but supposedly you can move objects with certain tones and such.
Easy, I guess... he first raised the orizontal piece (with the shown technique), then moved the vertical pillars under the horizontal piece (with the first technique - but trickyer and riskyer, because the base is much smaller, so there is less stability).
I get the concept, but what if you don't have a large, level concrete slab to spin the blocks on ?
That's a luxury the ancients probably didn't have.
Plus , he didn't explain how he placed the upper block. Maybe he did.." I *try* not to use pulleys or equipment". I'm not saying what he did is impossible, but there seems to a couple of holes in the story.
Well imagine that the people who built stonehenge had a lot more manpower and raw resources to work with that it would have negated this guy's advantage over them. I would think that what he prepared earlier were the wodden structures like the "teeter-totter"
I appreciate what you're saying, and think the guy's a genius for coming up with it, but if the display of the teeter-totter device begins with the rock already on top of it and the rock is far smaller than the real ones I would like to know how it got there. Manpower is fine if it's proven on blocks the full size and weight but it's the all too often the standard answer when somthing gets too heavy to prove in full scale.
Failed - saw it on TV about 15 years ago. The main entrance and other gates were made of immense stones, balanced so that the right push would cause them to open easily. How he did all that was a mystery, kind of a recluse. California, Florida? ... ?
3:03 He moves the block upwards. Now with that he is able to slide two more blocks underneath to hold up the horizontal block. He didn't have to explain it. ;)
This wouldnt be surprising. The romans knew how to make concrete too. While this may be the case in some less well-known pyramids, I dont think its likely in the famous ones. Most of the exposed rock looks like rock (not concrete) and show evidence of being hewn. Hell, the rock even matches that of nearby quarries.
If you think this is cool, check out Coral Castle. Edward Leedskalnin built it by himself, usually working alone at night. The grounds of Coral Castle consist of 1,100 short tons (1,000 t) of stones found in the forms of walls, carvings, furniture and a castle tower. A single (very small) man assembled the entire site using only primitive tools. With few exceptions, the objects are made from single pieces of stone that weigh on average 15 short tons (14 t) each. The largest stone 27 tons.
Who the hell disliked this? Oh yeah, jealous twerps who didn't think of it themselves.

Failed - saw it on TV about 15 years ago. The main entrance and other gates were made of immense stones, balanced so that the right push would cause them to open easily. How he did all that was a mystery, kind of a recluse. California, Florida? ... ?

look up "Coral Castle." That might be what you are talking about. Very interesting.

this is awesome.
but did he explain how the blocks got on top? or did I miss that part?

This is seriously cool. Never would've thought of this, and yet, now that I've witnessed it here, it seems so obvious.
zackhample 2 years ago 2
yeah, ok I get it - but HOW did they get the ones on the top to lay horizontally?! This still doesn't answer that.

3:03 He moves the block upwards. Now with that he is able to slide two more blocks underneath to hold up the horizontal block. He didn't have to explain it. ;)

Very ingenious. But we have no way of knowing if this was the method they actually used to build Stonehenge. And we never will.
quadturbo4 2 years ago
true, but if this guy was able to figure this out, I'm sure someone then could have as well.

We don't know if this was the exact method, but we can say with confidence that it was some variation of this

Only problem is that stonehenge isnt made of perfectly flat and square stones

they dont have to be for this method to work...
its just takes a little more care
thompson888 2 years ago
the principle would still work. You've also had a few thousand years of errosion on Stonehenge as well so I doubt they were as rough as they are now.

@PrawdehFish neither would these if you let them sit since 1600 BC i bet they were at one time

this technique can be adapted to various shapes... and the stones back then were much more even than they are now

interestingly they reckon the blocks that make up the pyramids were made of ancient concrete....
dillonstars 2 years ago
This wouldnt be surprising. The romans knew how to make concrete too. While this may be the case in some less well-known pyramids, I dont think its likely in the famous ones. Most of the exposed rock looks like rock (not concrete) and show evidence of being hewn. Hell, the rock even matches that of nearby quarries.

If you think this is cool, check out Coral Castle. Edward Leedskalnin built it by himself, usually working alone at night. The grounds of Coral Castle consist of 1,100 short tons (1,000 t) of stones found in the forms of walls, carvings, furniture and a castle tower. A single (very small) man assembled the entire site using only primitive tools. With few exceptions, the objects are made from single pieces of stone that weigh on average 15 short tons (14 t) each. The largest stone 27 tons.
