    How Stonehenge was built?

    This is pretty cool. This guy can move 10-ton concrete blocks by himself with no heavy equipment.

        Worked fine for me. That's pretty cool. It's amazing what can be done with little effort.

          It was cool. It's the same principle as what is used to load cargo in military and bulk mail planes with the fixed ball bearings on the floor. Watching him stand the pillar was cool. And to think he did this all by himself, it's seems like it would be very easy with 4 or 5 people. Having seen Stonehenge myself, and read some of the theories of how it was built, I think this guy is pretty right on.

            I tried it a couple of more times. "Sorry, this video is no longer available"
            I am either being discriminated against or you guys are pulling my leg.
            There is the remote possibility that I am totally incompetent

                            Those ancient monuments were made at a time when gravity was a mere fraction of what it is today. Masons were able to toss them around like they were toothpicks.

                            Yes, my friends, we're battling global gravity.

                            A couple of arguments that prove my point: (1) Inside a black hole, where mass is nearly infinite, heat is also nearly infinite (at least I imagine it is). So as gravity increases, so does heat. People talking about global warming have missed the big picture. If the earth is getting warmer, it is because it is getting heavier! We've got to cut GLOBAL GRAVITY.

                            (2) Obesity. We aren't getting fatter! NO! Gravity is getting stronger! Some day we will barely be able to lift ourselves out of our beds. STOP GLOBAL GRAVITY!

                            How can you fight global gravity? Gravity is proportional to mass. If we can reduce the mass of the earth, gravity will be reduced. A good way to start is to pick things up and walk around with them, rather than lettering them sit on the ground. Even better: Juggling (and the heavier the item, the better, so tennis balls are good, bowling balls are great)!

                            If we all work together we can combat global gravity!

                              Thanks. Website works (It's Quicktime). YouTube does not work with Firefox 2.0, Installed flash update, still doesn't work. IE7 works on YouTube. Saw the whole video. Checked Firefox website for issues with Flash. Saw none.
