      (I MARRIED A) MONSTER FROM OUTER SPACE
      The milky way she walks around
      All feet firmly off the ground
      Two worlds collide, two worlds collide
      Here comes the future bride
      Gimme a lift to the lunar base
      I wanna marry a monster from outer space
      I fell in love with an alien being
      Whose skin was jelly - whose teeth were green
      She had the big bug eyes and the death-ray glare
      Feet like water wings - purple hair
      I was over the moon - I asked her back to my place
      Then I married the monster - from outer space
      The days were numbered - the nights were spent
      In a rent free furnished oxygen tent
      When a cyborg chef served up moon beams
      Done super rapid on a laser beam
      I needed nutrition to keep up the pace
      When I married the monster from outer space
      We walked out - tentacle in hand
      You could sense that the earthlings would not understand
      They’d go.. nudge nudge …when we got off the bus
      Saying it’s extra-terrestrial - not like us
      And it’s bad enough with another race
      But, f**k me!… a monster…from outer space!
      In a cybernetic fit of rage
      She pissed off to another age
      She lives in 1999
      With her new boyfriend - a blob of slime
      Each time I see her translucent face

      And yes, despite being super heavy, the use of these techniques act as multipliers. For example, those simple swivel techniques allowed a 90kg man to move a 1000kg block with relative ease.

      He could not have built the Pyramid this way, maybe first couple rows but cmon, ya seen how tall pyramid is? would have taken more wood than was available and then some, not to mention with the precision.
      Aliens? well I will not say it is impossible but more likely a much better method was employed with a technology unknown or hidden from us. Ancient humans were much smarter than given credit and who knows. Maybe even Giants were involved, people scoff at giants being real but they are talked about in the bible and many other places around the world throughout history.

      but there is a difference between moving stuff on the ground and moving stuff up a steep hill.
      the pyramids in egypt have an angle of 51 degrees seen from the ground.
      So lifting those rocks to such heights is a totally different story.
      and then not even talking about cutting them.
      and also the astrology involved, cause many pyramids around the world form a line, even tho those civilizations didnt knew each other.
      and the pyramids also point to certain things in space (but i cant remember which ones)

      Also, just because the ancient Egyptians were not medieval Europeans, doesn't mean they didn't know stone-cutting, how to do maths, or were unable to predict the movements of the heavenly bodies. They gazed at them all the time. They even worshiped some of them. Are we to believe they couldn't line up a temple to point out the path of one? Now THAT would really strain credulity!

      And that's why there was more than one person building the hendge. Probably over a thousand of them in good physical condition working with a religious fervor.
