Fucking Stonehenge Could Have Been Built By One Man!

I was gonna post this in that last list of links, but it's just too cool to not get its own post. A Michigan carpenter may have solved the mystery of how Stonehenge was built. He's managed to raise a 9-ton horizontal block of concrete (roughly the shape and size of the stones in Stonehenge) off the ground to an arbitrary height, as well as to move it along the ground and then stand it upright on its end. The video demonstrates the techniques and is one of the coolest things I've seen in a long time. Such a simple explanation. Mind officially blown for the week.

Wow that video is really awesome. The worst part is the end though, when the people are making news appropriate jokes. And they even have the guy that repeates what the joke just was in a murmur. "Hehe. Stonehenge Reloaded."
