I have to admit that is impressive. Thanks for sharing.

I checked that out - interesting, but nothing as precarious as what this guy does.

I always figure there was a piece of rebar skewered through the middle of these.

The Inuit stuff tends to be much larger, and more enduring. This guy’s work is astonishing, but more like music ... the art ends when the performance ends.

“No way that’s real! The rocks have to be screwed together or something. They’re not even equally balanced!”

I’ve seen magicians do much better tricks than this one. So, “meh” is all I got to say.

After looking at the video - I’m calling BS.

Maybe it’s severe OCD

[ATOMIC_PUNK]

So he froze some rocks together lets see if it stands when it warms up !!!

Learn how to do this and wins some bar bets.

Or if you wanna get cocky...

Does he really get paid to do that? Or is he just an engineering student that dropped out after learning about canter levering.?

This is amazing and awesome! I loved the pix at the link, especially the ones that look like a group of people! I found it delightful, worthy of a healthy giggle and I really needed that today!

In the video, I was waiting for those rocks to tumble down onto his feet lol!

Thanks a ton for your post.

Knock yourself out, cupcake, as long as tax dollars are not paying you to stack rocks.

I have one question. Does he have a job or is he doing this on our dime?

[HiTech RedNeck]

These are built from the top down, finding the balance of each new assembly and letting that be the point of contact to what is placed below. Yes, it balances just fine. Likely a bit of glue to keep perching birds, etc. from knocking it apart.

"How about I give him the rocks and let’s see him balance them. This is BS."

Nope, not BS. I'm more skeptical than most.

I saw a guy pick rocks up off of a seawall and stack them up like this. I watched him for an hour or so.

Wow! Need to show this to the family.

[Jack Hammer]

Fun stuff and very creative.
