  • Stonehenge technology

    A youtube video about how to raise Stonehenge-sized blocks with Stone Age technology.

    Wally Wallington has demonstrated that he can lift a Stonehenge-sized pillar weighing 22,000 lbs and moved a barn over 300 ft. What makes this so special is ...

          Potential (big) problem with his lever method. He is moving all the big rocks by levering them off very small rocks.... on smoothed concrete. The stonehenge builders did not have massive, smooth and HARD surfaces to lever everything off of, every inch of the way. You could not do that in dirt.

            I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody's life, my life. All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die.

                  I think he lays a board under the fulcrums. isn't that how he moved the barn 300 feet over a grassy lot?

                        It is hard to see, he had SOMETHING under there.

                        When he moved the house though, the wood was joined at right angles in a frame underneath, of a strength which I do not think you could build with stonehenge technology. You have high quality wood measured precisley, with modern screws.
