Coral Castle

[other one]

I would have to say that is pretty cool...

I seriously doubt the man used magnetics, or even force fields. Considering that there are photo’s of him using traditional tools used to move heavy things. His idea for a jack screw isn’t unique, for a guy back in the 1880's invented the tool and it was primarily used to by the railroad for lifting locomotives. It is also documented that the tool was used by those working on bridges of the day.

From the pages from the coral castle web page, it is noted that when asked he said he understood the laws of weights and leverages He said very little about the pyramids, which left people just speculating in a bunch of nonsense. Nobody really saw him raise the blocks onto the truck beds, so they can’t really say how he did it. Take a look at this youtube clip, which shows a guy all by himself moving heavy blocks vary easily.

That's a nice video, one I have seen before. It doesn't display anything close to what Leedskalnin used though. Anyone who would be a builder would naturaly have an understanding of leverages? I have been to see Coral Castle and there is a machine (his generator) that has many parts missing that people only can speculate about, but some folks would know. Modern experiments that have been done using the same "close" design to Leedskalnin's used magnetics. The box at the top of his tripod he used went missing as well. I am sure he had other tools they used at the time, that would be easy to assume. You also have to remember that Leedskalnin believed in using what are called "ley" lines and "sacred geometry" (stay away from this) which is shown by symbols carved into certain blocks at Coral Castle. When he originally built this site the first time, he had several opportunities to buy land that was beautiful for this but he refused. Instead he chose what he considered to be along the ley lines of the earth. I like the video and it shows one way that the ancients may have used to raise obelisks. I haven't seen any video as of yet that shows anyone actually raising a 30-250 ton stone in the air and stacking it. As is well known and you stated yourself, no one ever saw him lift these stones. I do believe they had ways of sliding and moving certain stones and I as I have said before the ancients were far more brilliant then we give them credit for. Consider how the ancients cut, lifted and hoisted stones like the ones at Ollantaytambo for just one example. It is this kind of ancient knowledge (which branches into more then just lifting things I can promise you) that I think is linked to along the same lines as Leedskalnin's work. Thank you for sharing the video, I always enjoy anything like this.
