Stonehenge builders used "ball bearings"

Ed Leedskalnin knew how. What "theories" do modern scientists have for how he built Coral Castle? Use your search button - there are many threads here about Ed Leedskalnin , nothing to do with this thread at all The idea as is sounds possible but as Diechecker said , getting up the hills could be an issue , also didnt they have to cross lots of boggy ground ? i guess they could have had " outriggers " on the channel to stop it sinking and planks to walk on ? TIP

It does seem to serve its purpose.... However i don't think people back then have those kind of wood during that time also knots and bolts to hold the wood together are not available back then they simply use what they have back then so if its ropes and other trees they need to cling to make that pivot see saw thing it will literally collapse because of the weight... I'll be pretty impressed if he can do this in the perspective during that time....not the applied physics raw material he had right now...

Love the first scathing comment on the article: This video I saw on the UM Vid page a while back was one of my favorites. Kind've puts things into perspective as far as human ingenuity goes. When I saw 'ball-bearings' I thought it was gonna be the swivel technique he uses at 1:30, but the article's method seems way more practical. Thanks, that video does put it into perspective! I wouldn't be surprised to see this method used widely among ancient societies.

So, a caveman invented the wheel and a druid invented ball bearings. Good stuff! P.S. - That video is awesome!

No the stone henge was put their by satanic reptilian, giving thanks to the un creator they used that site for human sacrifice. Around 8 thousand years ago

Well first and foremost I applaud the Author's use of the words 'might' and 'may have'... The theory is sound, but the problem (as usual) comes in with practical application. You simply can't build a straight rolling track over 150 miles of uncleared earth, not even now. The first step in the construction of a modern road would be to clear and level the land. Such earthworks would still be apparent, and would pave a path from the quarry to the site... Additionally, I've recently visited the Clava Cairns, which are situated near Culloden. The area was completely overgrown with trees, and was in... [More]

Stonehenge is crude and simple, not something one would expect from people who could come up with ball bearings. It doesn't add up.

That's neat! Just to clarify something though..the ''Blue John'' stones are just the lintel stones that sit on top, not the Sarcen (standing stones) they are naturally present in the locality (deposited as moraine during an earlier ice-age).

Of course, you could ALSO move the stones by getting dozens of peasants around it, and just LIFTING it by hand, and then walking with it. Stop me if I'm getting to complicated meow purr
