That's pretty damn cool. Though I would have liked to know how he got the top block on.

I read some stuff on his website before it went down because of digg and he did a simmilar thing to the block on the ground and used a rock to swing one end then the other out (after using the rocking method to lift it all the way up there)

At least thats how he did his mini one

There's no such thing as stonehenge. It's just New Age mystical bullshit. I've never seen a stonehenge. I'd wager most people who believe in stonehenge have never seen one with their own two eyes either.

You're delusional. Either that or you're writing a book for new-age UFO and Crystal power freaks to waste their money on.

I'm not! On both counts! I went there with my teacher. On a school trip, like. She said it was Stonehenge and she's a teacher! Infallible! She knows stuff!

As impressive as it is, his way is of course still wrong.

Stonehenge was just erected one night by a couple of drunken Irishmen cause it seemed a good idea at the time.


Drunken Irishmen are actually the reasons behind nearly all the world's great mysteries.
Pyramids (Egypt and S.Am)
Nazca plains
Pathetheon
Hanging gardens
Not bad

Ive been to stonehenge. I believe it exists far more than I believe that you exist.

Anyway back to the thread instead of the troll.

If one man built stonehenge he wouldve had to live the centuries it took to build the multiple rings found there.

Ive seen drunken Irishmen too. They have trouble making it to the toilet and back without making their trousers and shoes smell of wee, and after it is no sure bet they can safely reperch on their barstools unaided. They are no pyramid builders.

I'll tell her you said that.

She'll give you lines and detention and that thing she does where she gives you a sheet of graph paper with the 1mm by 1mm boxes on and tells you to put a dot in each box!

That's only pretending cause they know you're watching.
Once you leave, they'll start to knock something up.

Yeah.. We came by bus. We sat on the grass. We were given wax crayons. We ate a pack lunch. We took our rubish away with us and we left by bus.

Of course I got it. I've got my wits about me. Unlike those who believe in things like fairies, spirits and stonehenge.

Salisbury? Lovely place. Nothing but chopped meat "steaks" swimming in gravy as far as the eye can see.

Everyone knows the moon is a NASA conspiracy to make everyone think the US "space program" actually sent people there. Before the 1960s there was no "moon".

Ya. My cousin's the guy who runs the big spotlight with the pockmark-pattern stencil on it. He just shines it up in the sky every night blocking an increasingly large sliver out. That's why it looks the same every night, despite supposeddly being a ball in orbit (synchronous revolution my ass).

The whole "lunar eclipse" thing started when his predecessor accidentally spilled coffee on it and didn't have time to clean it.
