Backyard Stonehenge: Amazing Video!

Watch an amazing Discovery Channel video of a Michigan guy near Flint, a retired construction worker named Wally Wallington, who thinks he has cracked the method used to build Stonehenge - working in his backyard. In the video, he stands a 19-ton concrete monolith upright all by himself using nothing but wood, some rocks, sand, and a garden hose. He also uses a variation of his technique to move a pole barn by himself more than 300 feet!

Here is the Discovery Channel link (you'll have to watch a 30-second commercial).

Here is the link to the same segment on YouTube.

Leave it to a "Flintstone" to show everyone how to move a stone.

---- Sorry, couldn't resist.

Interesting stuff. You should look into having him create a mini stonehenge for your backyard since you guys are neighbors.
