Eds Coral Castle Quarry and Flywheel, Engineering Mystery Solved

This Documentary has been registered with the library of Congress and I am awaiting the VSA pursuant issuance number. Replicas, and other engineering "toys" will be available upon request. Contact me if interested. For now I will customize an order. later when this engineering truth becomes "accepted" I will produce cookie cutter replicas for the masses. depending on the demand. Full Ed Leedskalnin machine replicas will also be available. wheel, tripods, and yokes etc will be full setups like an old working train set.

[@robertbodell7221]

I grew up in Florida and always thought about this place. I knew it was just physics and not magic. In fact, that is what got me interested in studying physics more. Some things he mentioned here I used in my generators for living off the grid for 60 years, like making the power source work at maximum output so there is no idling. This guy spent a lot of time in the museum studying everything and putting it together. It took a genius to put all the bits of knowledge together to build the coral castle and another genius to figure out how he did it. Great video.

This video shows the result of a thorough investigation, and explains in a very clear way the technology Leedskalnin almost certainly used to build Coral Castle singlehandedly. I sent it to a friend who is an experienced electrical engineer and a senior program manager with a major defense contractor, and he too found the conclusions completely plausible.

[@jenkor513]

you left out a couple points. First, Ed stated he knew how to find the exact center balance fulcrum) of a stone, no matter the size or shape. That was required to be able to move the stones. Second, Ed moved the castle ten miles from Florida city to Homestead, a distance of ten miles, in a 3 yr time frame. Third, Ed clearly stated many times he used reverse magnetism to defy gravity. Fourth, Ed weighed about 120 lbs and worked alone because he refused to divulge to anyone the secret of how to move the stones. You stated you nearly completed a model of Eds machine. I suggest you finish the model, then move a stone 10 miles by yourself. You have only explained how to raise the stone from the ground. something we already knew. And you stated how you believe the machine works but never explained at which point the machine reverses the magnetic field to cause an anti gravity effect on the stone. So basically, we are back where we started. We don't really know how the machine works. KNOWING where electricity moves is the easy part, understanding the effects, exact parameters of the voltage, amps, power (watts) and the magnetic field created is still undetermined.

There is a very rare video of Ed actually lifting and moving stones using tripod and pulley system with chains rolling on top of smaller logs on top of our logs. He also loaded the trucks that moved the stones 10 miles away and then unloaded them. He didn't physically move the stones by his own hands the way you might think.

My friend. The video says that his father and grandfather were stone masons. He was also an experienced rigger. Mr. Russel also clearly showed how the cutting process occurred and how the flywheel was implanted. The only reason he didn't demonstrate how to cut the actual coral was due to the fact that there isn't any in Vermont. However, , I am afraid, the purpose of pointing a telescope at a star, was taken to the grave with Mr. Leedskalnin.

Thanks for making this video. My family has been in Miami since 1919. I was always unhappy at the recent bizarre theories people used to attribute how Ed was able to build his stoneworks. Many of them claim he used unknown magical and mysterious forces that normal humans were incapable of. The truth was he was a wonderful stonemason and engineer. He did not have alien help, he had a lot of intelligence and grit and gumption and the desire to create that is in most of us. Ed should be held as an example of what we can all do when inspired, not portrayed as some mystical person who had access to otherworldly nonhuman resources. I think the creator of this video showed a similar amount of ingenuity and desire to create as much as Ed. Thanks a lot for making and sharing and inspiring.

In my opinion, i believe you have figured everything out. I don't believe for one minute what others say about him levitating huge blocks. If that feat was possible someone would have figured it out by now. You sir are incredibly smart, sorting this all out and making it work.

[@EdOfTheNorth]

Me thinks you missed the entire mystery of the mystery. Cutting the stone is nothing. It can as you admit, be cut with a hand saw. This coral limestone is a soft material which can be cut and shaped with ease. All it requires is time and energy. Lifting the blocks is the mystery because they are so heavy. Stacking them only increases the mystery. What do you do with the story of Ed moving one of his creations to another site via a wagon. How did he get the stones up on the wagon. And more importantly, how did he remove the stones from the wagon and stack them at the new site without his cutting contraption or his tripods, in the middle of the night without his battery powered lights and all of this in the course of less than 6 hours? That story has been verified and proven to be true. Ed also said that he understood how the Egyptians built the pyramids by utilizing what he re-discovered. And he said that he refused to share his discovery because he feared what mankind would do with it. Building a DC (pulse) generator and utilizing solenoids to operate jack hammers was far from anything to be feared because that technology was already widely used. However Ed's generator and his primitive solenoids do show us that there is great power in magnetism if you can harness it. The mystery is magnetism. Ed speaks of that all through his writings. The mystery of the mystery is how to capture the earth's natural magnetism which affects everything on earth, even gravity. And that is what takes us to Ed's repeated inferences to time, longitudes, latitudes and materials, which is what we still don't understand to this day. You have figured out one of Ed's experiments but you neglect the mystery of the mystery.

[@thomaskarpinski1997]

He used the Earth's mag to move them and it deals with the cone shaped rocks he had and there's more to it water is one .

[@Drew_Hurst]

You make some very good points Ed, I tend to agree with you. There is more mystery here. Also Thomas is right... I heard a theory where water plays a part in the cutting, in an uncommon way. The pond /tub at the site is said to be used to create a kind of ionicly charged water which is ready after the water has evaporated to the second inner cut-out in the pond/well. Then used to cause the stone to cleave apaet by dripping it along the cut line. As I said 'uncommon'. If modern-day engineers, when trying to improve the 10 tonne door (which used to open with just a push of one finger), were only able to only ruin it all together... then it points to the use of an uncommon (miss-understood) force. Also can you imagine how much attention all those lights running, and having a truck engine running all night would attract, not to mention the added sound of the saws and solinoids going at the same time. I admire your mind and your video but I believe there's more to it personally.

[@andyjohnson7408]

He fracked the inside of the coral then pumped air into it and capped the blocks. They used water to float them.... I'm pulling this out of my ass, but that's how I would do it.

[@TheQuarterbackX]

Nice video. Nice explanations. Though there are still many unanswered questions. Such as an uneducated man able to have a greater engineering understanding than the mechanical, electrical, engineers and physicists with a Ph.D. around the world? And, doing so from only reading books in the neighborhood public library? How could he afford to pay for all those working batteries, mechanical devices the were specially made with tools and methods he did not have access to or the most likely ability of resources and financal means to make or buy these specialize devices you arexmentioning? Part of me is, on a side note, thinking if we could just look at the record of all the books he had checked out at the library, read this book, would at least give us the background of how he was able to figure out the knowledge he was able to learn and figure out himself. I will give it to you, these are nice explanations to how he may possibly have built his castles. Though I also have to agree with the person here questions as well. 1) That is was stated by Ed that it would 3xplain how the Egyptians built the pyramids. 2) Why he was concerned that if the world should have such knowledge. 3) And, if I recall correctly how the earth's own lay lines, magnetic energy and such was what allowed him to do so. 4) I am also courious how he was able to move 30 ton stones? Yes a cart will make the moving of heavy objects easier. Though anyone who has used a wheelbarrow or a hand pulling cart knows, the more weight put in these carrying devices, the more difficult it will be to move. That is even if he had the cart sturdy enough to do such moving repeatedly over the years use. There is also that giant stone door he made that was so perfectly balanced on its center axis at the top and bottom that a person could open and close the spinning doorxwoth their finger, and little effort in doing so. Also feeling confident when no matter how many times opening and closing, that it would not fall off its axis, and be a potential danger to anyone around. I also recall how extremely secretive he was at night to all his workings. With stories of people trying to catch, and sneak a view of his secrets with pur his knowing, with no lick in doing do. Though again good explanations. Possable if not answering all the questions, then at least some. And, also demonstrating pictures to such objects, machines he had at his property for use, that most were not awair of. Those demonstrating the strong connection to these devices being of use in his project. So, thank you for sharing.

[@davidalexopoulos8372]

EdOfTheNorth The mystery is in the application of energy against the coral or stone- that concentration of energy force through the blades is not something we get to see except in something similar to plasma welding, or water welding. To cut the stone, not just a small stone but a massive, several ton stone, perfectly cutting the stone would take a great force, or would it? The interesting part is that people assume Ed did this on his own without getting the epiphany from someone else- how do we know someone else didn’t inform Ed and he just applied it?

[@Jacmac1]

Thanks for the explanations, you really show how much of a mechanical genius Ed was; and to have unraveled how it was all possible, you are a genius yourself. We had a man that retired where I live around the early 20th century who spent about 10 years in retirement digging out a cave complex. He didn't do it for any other reason than passion and to keep in good shape, and he was proud of his work. After he passed away, many legends sprang up about the origin and purpose of the caves, most of which were totally bogus. It's no surprise that the Coral Castle would end up shrouded in myth, anything people don't understand the purpose of ends up with its story told in a mixture of facts and lies.

[@vincecox8376]

I've been in electronics for more then 50 Years. This is what I'm thinking as it relates to Ed;s efforts and design, All you need to do is look at his generator device, (one of six he built over time), It uses "V" (NOT BAR MAGNETS), magnets there was a real reason for that. The magnets were set up 25 magnets around and 5 deep. They were set up in repel mode to send as much "B" field into the earth as possible. The "B" field is the center of a magnet not the North or South poles those are the weakest points on a magnet. The "V" magnet is a perfect device for his purpose given the "B" field is at the center and allows all magnets to supply the center as needed then through the crankcase and then into the ground. Once the ground was saturated with the "B" field energy I suspect he would use sound to manipulate the stone do to the fact the stones magnetic properties were totally disrupted by this injection of the "B" field energy. You can conduct your own test just by fast tapping a granite rock with the "B" field of a magnet you will see it loose weight!! Have

[@gerretw]

How would you bend the bar magnet onto a V shape without affecting it's strength? If you heated the bar magnet to bend it, wouldn't it lose it's strength? If you tried to re-magnetize it, wouldn't the apex of the v become a pole? If on the other hand, you don't heat it, and bend it cold, aren't you in essence making a horseshoe magnet?

Did I miss the part where a 30 ton stone was lifted in this video?

[@factsdontcareaboutyourfeel7568]

Maybe. Pay attention at about the 10:15 mark for a plausible explanation. If you want to see the experiment demonstrated and the results reproduced, then no, that part did not happen in this video.

[@cegtown]

Nerdy McNerdlington Thanks for responding. I was hoping to see the duplicated apparatus perform the job since the video is supposed to have cracked the conundrum. I appreciate you pointing out the 10:15 mark because I did miss it before. This video is still a theory of how it was done to me and not the explanation since it wasn't duplicated on film. Thanks again.

I miss that part to.If I had to use this saw to cut all this coral I would shit.Ed varyed or shielded the field of gravity.

[@badbatch974]

There is no way those stones weighed anywhere around 30 tons. They were more like 2.5 tons. The blocks would have to be close to nearly 9 ft. cubes or 27 cubic yards to have that much weight. They look to be closer to 2 cubic yards on the video. It's coral not granite.

[@brianwilson9828]

Scott, hello once again! I texted you years ago when having discovered your video on youtube! I just once again wanted to PRAISE your ingenuity and intellect AND perseverance! You single-handedly solved this enigma! What I find amusing is people don't even bother to look at all of the videos and photos of Ed using enormous block and tackle! they do zero research to learn that he was a stone mason who came from a stone mason family! You proved beyond a reasonable doubt how and what all the "gear" was being used for! PERIOD! I remember watching "in search of" with Leonard Nimoy and being irritated by the prospects of "unknown" magical powers creating this work...like "floating" the rocks with his mind power! etc...the true unknown "irritates" me because I want to really know the truth! And you my friend solved the mystery! again! THANK YOU!!!

[@ananominity]

This is magnificent. Let the skeptics howl all they want - no-one has ever even come close to recreating it, but you did it. You created a video walkthrough showing every stage successfully. This needs to be a legitimate documentary. The haters don't like it because it doesn't involve mysticism, aliens, or sorcery. You broke their bubble. Outstanding!

This video was a treat and a pleasure to watch. A deft and concise display of logic and erudition. When you look at it, it makes so much sense with such an elegant ease. Of course the 16 spiked wheel is a rotor, when the magnet stator and the engine generator were found on site. Thank you for putting the pieces of the puzzle together. Even for a layman unsavvy in the field of electric machines, the methodical way you went through all the details allowed me understand the working principle..... I have little pity for mystics and quacks, however clever they may be, but lets assume Ed Leedskalnin had his reasons. Thanks again for the hard work!

[@simagu918]

[@echafaud]

it ok if you prefer the magical explanation

[@madebyoneman5006]

You don't knopw your history of the place. I KNOW he lifted the rocks with chains and everything like the movie, BUT the wheel was always the TRUE mystery. THATS ALL. I want to know how he cut the rocks and what the wheel REALLY did. The rest SHOULD be obvious like all the rest of the giant sites, BUT how did they CUT the rocks. Eds wheel is an old DC machine. Does S stand for Stupid you say? He NEVER had utility power everyone knew that but he did have BATTERY power. for lights BUT MAINLY TO CUT ROCKS. NOTHING else. its a stone garden not a engineering museum. Lets try to keep is simple. You know the rest. And I beg to differ my good man it is NOT SILLY. I am hurt.

[@madebyoneman5006]

Thank you I am trying. I have cut rocks now but won't upload the "action" because of future plans for books movies, Documentyaries etc. OH YES I GOT IT NOW GUARANTEED. the rest is nothing more than $$$$$$$ to film capture, quarry, and lift some like the ol boy did 80 years ago. PS the doc is wrong on the batteries. they were not in the boxes. SAWDUST SOAKED IN OIL to preserve the poles was. Simple and I know first hand.

[@sandycarson2168]

While he makes many valid discoveries, it still doesn't explain how he moved it from where he originally built it, to where it stands today. Also doesn't explain the massive doors you can open with one finger, with the exception of one which was knocked out of position. As far as I know, they still haven't been able to restore it to the way Ed originally set it.

[@brianclark7719]

Two big problems - 1st ) Regardless of your example, the design you suggest does not provide ample force to do anything of the magnitude it would require to work the coral. Fact ) Scientists have commissioned contractors to use whatever heavy machinery they would like to replicate the work and precision - they were unable to do so. 2) The wheel was not free spinning, instead was enclosed within another ring of block shaped machinery and was hand cranked at the very least to get the process rolling (as seen in several photos of Ed and remnants at coral castle) . Another piece that just does not work well with your idea - Ed moved every block of the castle by himself (and a driver who was not allowed to help him) onto a flatbed, and off the flatbed - to an entirely new location. I am quite comfortable saying that had he only been using a pulley system and tripods - the driver would have had no problem identifying how Ed moved the blocks. Instead, he had no idea how Ed did it. While your suggestions do pose as possibilities - unless you can undertake something just as advantageous as Ed has done on your own , with your theory and no help, do not suggest you know how it was done otherwise the only thing you are doing is showing how pompous you really are. And Ed definitely deserves more respect than that. And finally - the 1930's video is hollywood at its finest. If you're telling me that you believe what you see in film then oh boy.. This HAS become deluded.... Ed worked at night - and did not share his secrets in his writings, visitors, nor onlookers. When asked, he wouldn't share it - and almost lost his life as a result of this: which also was the premise of him moving his castle. IF it was a matter of simple mechanics and machinery , I do not think Ed would have had any problem sharing it with the rest of us. Instead of his two books being cryptic; he would have just laid it all out. I'll give credit where credit is due; your suggestions 'sound' convincing - now get out there with your theory, cut some 30 ton coral slabs out of the earth, pulley and stack them and prove it to the world. Otherwise, just another sham.

I beg to differ. As a mechanical engineer who has worked with electric motor design for decades. As a lover of stone masonary. As an owner of a 16 hp version of the engine shown.

Regardless of what anyone thinks about the blocks and antigravity, this man has ABSOLUTELY EXPLAINED what's there when it comes to DC current and the necessary tools and components on sight. I'd kill to possess his old school ingenuity and understanding of electricity... probably a logger.

[@naokikashima9349]

Ed Leedskalnin had the entire coral castle moved to Miami from the original site. Ed hired a driver to take the rocks to Miami, he told the driver to leave the truck at night and the truck would be completely loaded by morning. Ed did all the loading and working at night to prevent others from seeing what he was doing. Well one time the driver came back to his truck only 30 minutes later. To his amazement the truck was already completely loaded with over 30 tons of rocks! How did Ed load that truck with 30 tons of rocks in just 30 minutes? How could his tripod move stones that weigh 30 tons when the tripod could only support 2 to 5 tons max? Ed used anti-gravity to nullify mass/weight of those rocks. Gravity is a subset of electricity and magnetism it doesn't exist as a separate force. Ancient builders knew this. That is how all the great ancient structures were built, the stone henge, puma punku, the pyramids. The great pyramid is 1,200,000 blocks at 433 feet tall, built in only 20 years, average weight of block is 5,500 lbs. This means that a block had to have been cut, moved, and set into place above every 8 minutes and workers had to have worked 24 hours a day 7 days a week while maintaining the precision of the blocks at 0.01 mm... That task is impossible even today!

[@madebyoneman5006]

Naoki Kashima IMPOSSIBLE? woops you just landed on the wrong site to start using such BLIND words. I can tell right away you are either very young or very young at mind. Because these things are not impossible. What is impossible is to get the public to stop believing stupid exaggerated "non provable stories". As for 20 years that might be wrong but that's it the rest is "probably done by man" how is impossible for modern lazier unorganized minds to understand. Don't get me wrong Naoki, I am not running down todays people just that know one seems too much common sense old fashioned thinking any more WITH physical teamwork. I have levered some very large things into place and know Ed leedskalnin built this place with perserverance and sweat not some silly never ever seen device. Come on. Really. Ground control says NO. peace. Scott R.

[@naokikashima9349]

Made by one man If ED used conventional methods for building the Castle how come he only worked at night? How much harder is it to dig and lift giant stones under the light of a candle light? What about the report of kids spying on Ed. They stated that he was levitating the stones using two cones. Kids reported that stones were floating as if they were giant balloons. How did Ed load that truck with over 30 tons of rocks in just 30 minutes? Ed was only 115 lbs (very small man).. What is the point of having so many inductors, transformers, the flywheel if he didn't use them for some grander electrical setup? Go read Ed's book called 'the electric current' it will give you a different perspective about what Ed was doing.

[@shidoin5398]

Naoki Kashima he didn't use candlelight, he had lights! He did it at night #1 because of the heat #2 he was giving tours during the day. He NEVER FINISHED THE FIRST SITE.. it took him 3 years to move the first site to the new location. He didn't levitate anything... he used chains, please look at Ed's original 1930's video of him lifting and moving the coral. If you still think there is something more, they have medication for your condition...

[@naokikashima9349]

shidoin Did Ed Leedskalnin have advanced knowledge of electricity? Wad Ed a high level Freemason? All one has to do is go to the Coral Castle and look around. You'll see "the star of david" or the joined pyramids in at least 3 places within the Castle. You also will see the Moon sculptures. These are both well known Freemason symbols. Ed is known to saying, "if you put one of my devices on a rocket and fly it to the moon and then come back you'll have the same amount of fuel as when you started". What was Ed talking about in that quote? Is he talking about harvesting energy from the vacuum of space? I think so. If Ed only used levers and a tripod to move his stones how did he move the 35 ton stone in the Coral Castle? Why don't you do a video demonstrating how it is possible to move a stone with a weight of 35 tons using this method :P

[@shidoin5398]

Naoki Kashima no ed did not have knowledge of ADVANCED electricity, he did however understand electricity. He was NOT a freemason, but he was a stone mason. Stars, the sun, the moon. That's pretty mind blowing. There is not a 35 ton block at the castle. It's easy to take a statement and twist it to work with your beliefs..

But there are plenty of people who can work smart AND hard. If this is all still a mystery to you after watching this video, you failed to understand what you saw. He comes from STONE MASONS! He probably knew more about working stone than us by the age of 5. And this is EXACTLY how big stones have always been moved and built with. Simple mechanical physics. Planes, levers, pulleys, wheels. Granted that the Egyptian deeds we're a magnitude larger they would probably have needed to construct wooden cranes that could swivel and be broken down for mobility. Only someone with a great fear of doing actual labor would fail to understand how this is all inevitably the only way to accomplish this kind of building. It's not even really hard work. It would just take dedication and persistence and trade education. He took what he could from the current science of the day and improved on a trade that is as old as the pyramids

A real mystery solver would be a real cutting on the rock or a real lifting/moving of a 40-ton rock. I agree that was all his opinion of how it could be done not mystery solver at all.

Not to take anything away from Ed by any means, I'm a huge fan, but it's doable without secret methods.

There will always be people who prefer to believe it was achieved by his discovery and use of antigravity.

[@patriciahansenwithan]

You have my attention but I would have to go back and read about the situations where he did something extraordinary in a short time when people were listening and did not hear any noises, etc to indicate he was doing things that used the kinds of energy you are describing. Another point is that the men at that time would have been familiar with the things you are describing and if he could have done them they would have known it. I think that he did do things with the equipment he had but I also think he did something more either with that stuff or other stuff that related to magnets. I volunteered at UFO and free energy conferences for 20 years and I saw some amazing things. A thing on a carburator that ran a car idling for 8 hours a day of the event, and the exhaust pipe was ice cold. A device made of round magnets that copied the 'wedding cake saucer ' that Billy Meier in switzerland photographed, and when the guy stood it up it began to rotate wildly on only the power from the magnets. And I have seen videos where things Ed had were moved to make a magnetic change and did something I forget, but it was impressive. I agree with other commentors that although impressive, you theories have not shown they can do the moving of the coral slabs, and if they could as you say, five men could not do it in the time he did things. It is like the Japanese team that moved a huge block by ropes, but they never got it up to anyplace that showed it could be done and was an explanation for how the pyramid was built. I also have videos where Yul Brown barehanded with regular glasses and smoking a cigarette welded glass to tungsten, bricks to steel, etc with browns gas. Having worked as a fitter to a welder who cut 35 inch steel pipes, I know a bit about how welding does and does not work, and abiut how much one or two people can do when things are very heavy, etc I think he could have done what you say but in months rather than hours, and if he did the people who tried to see how he did things would have heard motors and seen lights, etc,

[@newroyalorder6225]

Great reply. I've been to Coral Castle several times. Almost everything in this video's on point, except I don't remember seeing a reciprocation engine or a locomotion attachment or any heavy machinery. I think he was using the generator to do a couple more things that's missing in this video

[@HydroMaester]

Really cool! The amount of practical and physical engineering knowledge Ed had is staggering! No wonder so many people are confused!

[@jeffbrinkerhoff5121]

Absolutely the best Leedskalnin information- documentary I've seen. Most impressive.BYW I knew a guy who worked at CC in the 80s, though he had no clue as to the details you demonstrate. I hope this video is played for guests at CC so they can appreciate what is otherwise not explained.

Scott, the more I watch this video the more I like it.

[@madebyoneman5006]

Yup its a little barbaric but I am making GOOD head way on the real process to the point where i am almost ready to go to Florida. Coral Castle Nut Roadtrip. Any takers. ?? hope you are well brother. all that mathematics you are digesting will come in handy later.!!!!! Scott

After watching this clip, I was furious and felt compelled to voice my utter disapproval in the comments portion area section. You should be ashamed of yourself for uploading this clip. Where do you get off making a clip that poses a hypothesis and back it up with sane, credible evidence? This is KZbin! Hello!? Since when did it become acceptable to clearly use the scientific method properly on KZbin? Hey? You know, I've watched a lot of crap on KZbin in my time. It gives me great joy to make fun of their ridiculous claims and point out any glaringly obvious flaws to them. How dare you take that away from me. How do you sleep at night? If you wake feeling tired, with aching muscles after a night tossing and turning, perhaps a new mattress is what you need. I get you good price for mattress. You want? Yes? Only Three fitty. Karma dude. You make a valid rational clip and back up your theory properly, I have no choice but to use my words to make you smile at least, at best, you will cry. At least I have hope. Peace. Exceptional clip. Well researched and executed properly. Do you have any frikkin idea just how rare you are on KZbin?

[@energyfrequencyandvibratio4867]

Duncan Disorderly lol

[@pietrayday9915]

Bravo! Any proper KZbin video requires a few basic things: 1. A bad techno stock music soundtrack. 2. A robot voice narration, or inane captions without narration. 3. A lot of smug, smirking, marijuana-induced paranoia from the video's creator about being smarter than "mainstream science", "Illuminati", "big government", and "the military-industrial complex", mixed with.... 4. A lot of goofy New-Age pseudo-science and/or magical woo, preferably involving aliens, crystals, chi, and pyramid-power.

[@Jill_T]

Duncan Disorderly, you could have used your talents to describe the horrible music. Lol

[@bullzdawguk]

@Duchess Of Ravenhall. Talents? I love when a stranger uses that word. Why... thank you. Incidentally, I am blushing, the blush of the modestly flattered. How did I miss seeing this comment?

[@bullzdawguk]

@Pietyr Ayday. Only saw this for the first time today. I love it! You hit the nail on the head. Nine Inch Nails preferably. I love that frikkin group! NIN is the way to my heart, both literally and figuratively.

[@ethanwalker856]

I've been to the Coral Castle and live in Fl. One enduring story is that Ed would have these huge stone blocks delivered via truck and would not unload them until the driver left. According to this video, Ed would have had to set up his tripod/block and tackle (?) mechanism over the truck, lift the blocks off, then disassemble the tripod and move the blocks via rolling logs around the site. It's possible, but it sure sounds like a lot of work. Another thing, my understanding is that many of the myths or whatever were started by Ed himself. He would say things like "I figured out how the Egyptians built the pyramids" and so on. Good marketing, I'd say.

[@JustChillingOut]

The testimony from some of the flatbed truck drivers that moved the massive stones stated that they went around the corner to an area that prevented them from seeing how the blocks were loaded on to the back of the flat bed truck. The real kicker here is that the truck drivers stated that it took Ed but a few minutes to accomplish loading each block onto the back of of flatbed truck. This does not give Ed anywhere near enough time to assemble and disassemble a massive tripod over the back of a flatbed truck of which would take hours if not possibly days. As we can see from this video simply erecting a tripod made out of trees is a massive undertaking. There is simply not enough time during the loading process of the block to assemble a tripod crane over the back of the truck and then disassemble it and accomplish that in just a few minutes. This video completely and absolutely overlooks this very simple fact.

[@kevintucker3354]

Well put together! Ed was a genius “junkyard” engineer! I keep thinking even the great pyramids were built the same way! People using tools to make big work small! You know, if you listen to a large steam or oil or hit and mis engine you realize where the industrial music from the 80s came from!

[@detroitfettyghost8492]

Thomas Edison made the first recording of magnetic noise industrial machinery being the sound, this was truly said to be the inspiration for early 80's industrial music♥️

[@rubygray7749]

Over 40 years ago, somebody told me that 4 of us kids could lift the weight of a person sitting on a chair, using just 4 pinkie fingers. We all stacked our hands on the seated person's head, and imagined the weight of our bodies going down through the stack of hands. Then we each put one pinkie finger under 1 corner of the chair, and lifted ... and the chair was raised up as light as a feather. I always figured there was some dread witchcraft involved, and never tried it again. Any other suggestions for why this worked?

[@ivandamico93]

Ruby Gray Ive seen videos of this, as well as the same kids trying to do it without stacking, and couldnt be done,, maybe investigate? everything is magic until explained.

[@dongray3258]

Ruby Gray my pappy dug coal all his life men can move mountains we do it every day..

[@madebyoneman5006]

No but I would think if ED ever levitated rocks for real with "witchcraft" it was the same way and NO ABSOLUTLEY NO IRON MACHINE. it would have been the same way to some people the storms, floods, lightning etc MAY be tied to our souls???? EEEks???? So I went for the grounded NON HOCUS POOCUS CA DABABRRAADOODLE method. See I can't Spell Well. WHEEL hmmmm excuse me. eeerp........

[@rubygray7749]

I think this video nails it. He worked at night because it was too hot to cut rock during Florida days. His mystery wheel was his off-grid electricity generator to run his rock-sawing machinery. Coral presumably is riddled with holes, therefore large blocks weigh much less than solid rock of the same dimensions. He used the tripods to lift the blocks up, then rolled them into place on rolly logs, which I have done myself, being a mere girlie. No big metaphysical secrets here.

[@madebyoneman5006]

Ruby Gray Very good. speaking of girlies, here my good lady check this out. AND YES you nailed it. I have some revisions etc like the boxes held oil not the batteries, MY BAD, but the rest works actually. But I have a new marathon chipping sequence up now but back to the girlie, In my state of VT, 20 miles away, too, kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZPHmWOcfJWohck Thank you much for the objectivity.

[@TheZooman22]

Very well done. I read several of Ed's books, and conducted experiments using the principles he discussed.

[@brucevipond2222]

Mr.Russell, fabulous video! Like you I was born in 1961, so our experiences on a large scale are similar. Without getting into a diatribe on the failings of our educational systems the past 40 years I’d like to commend you on your use of language to impress or educate. Early in the video you spoke of Ed’s appetite to read. Reading and therefore knowledge is paramount to understanding the world around us or at least the world in which we place ourselves. Thank you.

[@invinciblevicks4382]

[@winfordnettles3292]

Thanks for posting. Found this video very insightful. Much appreciated.

[@joepinson5886]

Awesome work! You figured out almost everything about Ed and his ingenious methods of cutting his huge corral blocks. But how did he lift those heavy blocks is the big question? A wooden tripod? Pulleys lifting tons of stone? Ed said he discovered the secrets of ancient Egyptians. If it was all pulleys lifting the large stones why be so secretive about your building techniques?

[@inthesauce]

he was simply saying, he thinks the Egyptians used his methods but scaled up to thousands of men, if he could do this all himself imagine what 5,000 workers could do.

[@rccar354]

when loading the truck Ed would tell the driver to go behind the bushes while he loaded the big rocks on the truck.... I think there is more to this story than has been discussed Sorry Ed = 1 US = 0

In many of those old photos of Ed's set up show those black boxes, where'd they go ???

[@simagu918]

He didnt and coulldnt lift any stone. he figured nothing out.

[@madebyoneman5006]

NOTHING!! so accurate of an objective intellectual comment. highly respectable. eeeeeks I think you need a lift. by the seat of your pants. Didn't you see him lift out the blocks and move them in the movie? I apologize. every one needs their fantasy about floating 30 ton coral blocks and CUZ I didn't lift them but showed ED DOING IT INSTEAD I figured NOTHING out. again EEEEEks.

[@madebyoneman5006]

Ron, Thank you for your positive comment. Yes 2 years of winding measuring testing and realizing simple things.I am no way finished with this as some of these "Nuisance flies" you see hitting your comments and many others. Some people have limited mental faculties and I need to be more patient. I wont stand for immoral behavior tho no matter how "handicapped" the source. In the past those nuisances were "seriously, understandingly, eliminated for the betterment of the situation for reasons of mere driven survival. things are different. But I still have to Teach the people if they just don't see the real thing. If at all possible. other wise, in the mean time I will deal with pestering. Someday I will have more on this place with higher definition. Lifting, stacking, everything, But cutting comes first.Or there will be no lifting. So I need a mysterious unknown wheel first. THEN I can actually chip stones and not even lift a damn hammer. Scott R.

[@pacorenta]

Great job worthy of a genius like you! I still have a doubt on how the pieces were separated (cut) from the bottom (specially the very large and heavy ones of 30 tons size that were cut from all four vertical planes and the bottom horizontal plane). The bottom horizontal plane is very hard to figure out!

[@dannyboy12357]

I appreciate all of your great work but I'm not so sure this was his method. I would like to see some actual moving and building similar to coral castle.

[@FJL]

Ah, so many critics, so few actual working wizards. Great job, Scott. Don't let the shallow negative morons reduce or demean any of your brilliant work. I first visited Coral Castle with my parents back in the 70's. I took my kids to see it in the 80's when the door was still working exactly as Ed built it. The most amazing feat ever and the engineers managed to screw it up permanently. I revisited with my wife this past summer. I had a fresh perspective on it, but was still dumfounded on how his obviously magnetic and electronic apparatuses worked together. You have put the pieces together majestically! Thank you. Ed had a firm grasp of the power of magnetism and electrical energy. He shut down many an engineer that has attempted to explain his system for the past decades. We may still not know exactly how he moved multi-ton limestone blocks, but it's not that far a stretch that he used mechanical energy, as well as magnetic and electrical energy. Is it possible he also had insight on frequencies, Earth magnetic energies and the electrical properties of energy in water? Sure. But until someone can tell us exactly and accurately, just as Scott has done here with his hard work and research . . . then, just shut the hell up!

[@roryschultz3788]

Brilliant!!! I bet he read a lot of Tesla's books! I have to admit, your explanation has been the best ever " No Brainer!" Now we can also see how the Pyramids were done......who says they did not figure out magnetic energy, or steam.....the Romans had steam baths and fountains fed by the gravity of water from the downward slope of water off the mountains. I watched a scientist show a long lost self made stone pipeline at Machu Pichu that ran several miles to keep water flowing through out each home, the external fountains for plants and wildlife and this water fed to a high mountain top was fed from another mountain along this stone cut groove all perfectly aligned and with just enough flow rate to not cause pressure damage along the way or at the end. Nobody knew of this until this one man figured it out that it had been overgrown out of sight.
