No kidding. I was watching bricklayers and they’d throw a brick up to the guy on the scaffolding. The brick would just sit there in the air for a while, like the Roadrunner Cartoons, and then the guy up there would grab it. It really seemed to defy gravity. Never saw a miss.
I saw that when they built the house across the street from my house. It was like slow motion...................
The YouTube bricklayer contest videos are fun to watch. Those guys are surgical.
