Very cool.
That is very cool. How does he get the cross-member on top?
We rely on machinery for so much…but ingenuity counts for alot, too…
how’d you stumble across that? it’s great. so simple and yet how many of us would’ve come up with that technique?
A friend sent it to me…curious at a minimum.
Why don’t we make huge deals out of guys like that? We all clamber over rich whores and liars running for office but people who use their brains and do amazing things get nothing. This guy is great.
In this age of instant gratification where people crave (but not necessarily want) mindless mayhem, smut, and scandal do you really have to ask that question? The average person does not have a suitable attention span to be able grasp the accomplishments of such modest and unassuming men (or women) that! For the non-ST crowd, most would have clicked away from the video within the first minute because it did not produce a humorous response at the expense of someone else being demeaned, injured, or otherwise suffering some type of indignation with a humorous outcome.
Very cool. Thanks for sharing.
That’s a sweet video, I wonder how he got the stone on top as well.
The reason everything is geared towards this people is because they are easily brainwashed into believing everything they hear on the tv/radio and purchasing what they see in advertisements. It is all about money. The real question is do we call these people ‘average’? They are the people that foreigners hate but knowledgeable people don’t stand up and make any noise. Like in a class, you have 1 kid who is misbehaving and loud and bothering everyone while there are 30 other kids being good and listening. If you didn’t know there was 31 kids in the class you would think everyone is loud and obnoxious. I would like to believe that there are more people out there that would appreciate this kind of stuff.
Thank you. I really enjoyed watching the feature. DK
Wow neat he is not too far from me, I may have to wander out there one day.
That’s a sweet video, I wonder how he got the stone on top as well.
I would guess that he planted two vertically and then did just what you saw him do–gradually raise on in the air over the other two (but perpendicular), then spin it on a pebble or ball bearing, and lower it on to the two verticals. Or raise it first and position it over where he wants it to be, but higher, then drop the two vertical posts into place, then lower the horizontal one on to them.
He didn’t invent this or figure it out by himself.
