[@alakdanhilario315]

I was able to view from another upload Jimmy Akin’s Mysterious World, and I tend to agree and favor his research‼️That probably Archbishop Lamy commissioned the construction of said mysterious Staircase, in France and paid the same thereat and transported via Ship and train to Santa Fe, New Mexico! The builder Rochas “Frenchy”, shipped the already assembled (in France) staircase and had it installed where it is now located in Loreto, Santa Fe, New Mexico‼️The French had that skill/expertise to construct not only woodcrafts but likewise, STEEL Fabrications! Like the famous Eiffel Tower in Paris, France! FYI, the Engineers and skilled Frenchmen who did said Tower, were the ones who built the San Sebastián STEEL Church in the Philippines🇵🇭. A Roman Catholic Church, located in Manila. They transported the steel structures via Ship, some parts already assembled in France‼️This CHURCH is still standing and being used for worship by the FILIPINO Catholics. Please google it or research from Wikipedia about the San Sebastián Church, Philippines🇵🇭‼️If they were able to transport one whole Church, (All STEEL) , the Miraculous Stairway is no comparison. Religiously, myself a Catholic from birth(am now Octogenarian) , probably, GOD through the intercession of St. Joseph sent his representative, Rochas to install the said STAIRCASE🙏‼️The arrival of Rochas on the tenth day after the sisters’ NOVENA, could have been a coincidence or GOD’S PLAN🙏‼️GOD BLESS US ALL‼️

[@s.p.gambone1190]

It's wooden pre-columbian soulmate, with its mirror image counter-rotating spiral-like coil would have to be assumed to have been built around the same time period as this original, possibly a thousand years ago or more. And while it is theoretically possible to replicate this upside-down installation of a pre-existing, repurposed wooden structure... that ain't gonna happen any time soon. Since even those professional stairbuilding fools who erroneously claimed back in 2018 that they do build these things all the time know for a fact that they are lying through their teeth because the clearly had no clue about how it was built.

Except it wasn't, it was just a master stair builder of the 19th Century, without the skill or the will, to finish the job by adding a handrail (which BTW, is much harder to learn and to do.) This doesn't mean that prayers weren't answered, or that it wasn't well-worth the trip and price of admission to see it. I did and I recommend it and I'm a professional stair/handrail builder.

The staircase is magnificent but not miraculous. It is likely built by François-Jean "Frank" or "Frenchy" Rochas (1843-1894). We don’t do ourselves any favours by believing in superstitious rumours and sadly Catholicism is full of stories like this. How about we stick to the core basics of the faith which have stood the test of historical rigour for 2 millennia and have a few miracles sprinkled in for good measure along the way :-).

[@WarDaddyUSA]

It really is a wonderful staircase and a great mystery. A true miracle. But me being the freethinking person I am it is very possible that the guy never returned because he was killed somewhere. And maybe he stole stole wood or brought it with him, anything could’ve happened. If you look at the timeline it’s not like he completed it overnight or in a week. It took him eight months or two years depending on what video you’re watching on KZbin. So that would seem legitimate I think as a Carpenter. Now how it’s able to support that weight I believe it has a reverse spring in the wood that he was able to obtain with water. But who knows this is very interesting

[@ExploringThroughOurLens]

@@ExploringThroughOurLens well I did some research and I was able to draw a pretty clear conclusion. The guy who built the stairs was a French man. I can’t remember his exact name but he built the stairs there is many newspaper articles saying the man who built the stairs. He was assassinated in dog canyon near his cabin. This was over a dispute because he moved into this canyon with pretty much no permission and a couple of the locals did not like that. Also they were stealing his cattle I believe. The French man had some balls on him and said he was going to call the cops and you were going to go to jail. The following night he died

...carpenter with a mule... sounds similar to another

[@dogstar5927]

There is no mystery here, and definitely no miracle ! It was built by an expert carpenter, yes. But it was unstable and unsafe from the get go as it had a steep incline, so much so that the nuns had to crawl down to prevent falling. And an iron railing had to be added years later to prevent accidents. In fact it hasn’t been used as a staircase for decades to prevent structural collapse. There is a central wooden support of small diameter. We also know the name and origin of the French carpenter. There has been payment made for services rendered as there were receipts found and we even know where he is buried. Spruce is the wood that is was made off which is hardly uncommon in the Americas. Samples of the wood are not allowed to be taken for scientific examination, so it’s impossible to determine the exact species of spruce used. Wooden pegs were the norm at the time since iron nails were expensive and difficult to come by. The church is a ‘for profit museum’ so there is an obvious financial incentive to perpetuate a ‘miraculous’ mystery, especially in a religious setting. And lastly, the ‘mysterious carpenter rode in on a donkey you say…. I call 🫏 💩 ! 🙄🤦🏽‍♂️🤣
