wow
I agree, although I’m not entirely sold on the artificiality of what we see. Cold climate, these could easily be natural blocks, given their enormity and the erosion.
I have to ask. Are these with out a doubt man made megaliths? Could they not be natural stone formations?
sort of like giant and long-term versions of dried cracking mud?
Natural formations that look like stone bricks is possible. America Unearth series has a town in TX that was surrounded by a 8 story “wall”. Unearthed it looked like man laid rectangular stones. The expert drilled stone samples and had it analyzed for low magnetic orientation. If it is a natural formation, all the samples stone magnetic orientation will point in one direction. If manmade, all the sample magnetic orientation will be random. It turned out that millions of years ago, area in TX was under water and lava pressured earth upward to form a wall like bathtub. Upon cooling it formed cracks that give a visual impression of man laid rectangular blocks. These formations are rare but possible.
Nice picture of natural blocks.
The geological formations in the world are fantastic. How many people knows that Mount Everest was the bottom of the sea before the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Plate collided with the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurasian_Plate
Thanks AdmSmith.
Wow!
Thanks for posting!
Mother nature must have had her square and straight edge out that day :)
“Tekeli-li!”
Definitely aliens. Or lost technological arts in a Russian golden age. Or natural.
These are naturally broken rock formations. Notice how tight they are to each other. Probably cracked due to extreme cold and ice which got into the vertical cracks. It eroded them from within for a long time, just enough to send the crack all the way to the bottom of each piece.
Wouldn’t be surprised to learn that an earthquake also shook the area, and if it occurred during a hard freeze, it would have allowed the froze ice to break internally and the shock waves would have followed the cracks, thus breaking them all the way up and down.
No human hands in this stuff.
Now, the important question. Did they find a Yeti?
Those dinosaurs were clever creatures.
When does nature ever do straight lines?
Throw in fracturing from post-glacial isostatic rebound, and some of these could be merely cracked and weathered in situ.
