Can you give a brief synopsis for those of us behind firewalls?

Serious awesomeness!

A clever fellow in the UK figured how to use the power of a single man to move multi-ton stones in truly clever ways.

I am very impressed.

Using the techniques I see here, one man with a pile of lumber and enough fifty pound weights could indeed build something like Stonehenge.

A Michigan man is using the principle of the teeter-totter to balance large blocks, tipping them back and forth, adding a slab of wood with each tip and raising the block by its own weight. He also rotates large blocks by balancing them on a stone and pivoting, thus he can move these massive stones by rotating them a few degrees one end then the other.
