One of the issues I find with a lot of these theories that involve moving large stone objects that people tend to forget that these people didn't have lives like we have today. There was no 'time' limit on completing a project, it was more of when it got done, it was done. Not everything had a set dead line, and one statue may have taken a year or two to move, even more, I'm sure they didn't have anything else to do.
Patrick Strong also hills, walking and sleds with that much weight can be dangerous, you’d have no control of the fall most likely pulled there on its back but who knows lol
I feel like their days could have been equally full or more so. They had to hunt, gather, or farm. Societies didn’t have free time to start individualizing labor until they became agrarian. I don’t know if the Rappa Nui was agrarian. Were they?
I think its funny that the people that lived in the island were able to move them and say "they walked" and present say peopel are still wondering and trying to figure out how they did that. Super cool
anyone ever wonder why aliens flew light years in craft made of high tech alloys just to carve half assed statues out of rock on a world plentiful of elements to make high-tech alloys
I hate when people see a situation where humans didn't have modern machinery to move large objects and they immediately think aliens. There wouldn't be modern anything if not for innovative people thinking of new ways to get shit done.
Walking moai is reasonable. Their model is a scaled model of a larger maoi, and their model is of the same size and mass of most maoi. Only a few maoi are actually larger.
I find it fascinating that ancient man moved stones that weighed up to 150 tons, sometimes up hill! , and so called modern man can only theorize how they did it. The truth is the past is far murkier than the simple explanations that are offered as fact.
The moais walked in that way but inside of a trench so they didn't fall to the sides. Also a guy with a wood was moving in front and placed the wood to avoid the moai falling forwards.
Remember, the islanders have a very specific term invented to describe this type of walking, and they are synonym to the type of walking people with fully amputated legs have done. This is similar to how Asians have many terms describing rice and the state on how it is cooked, Greek have 3 terms to describe a type of love, and how Aramaic and Hebrew have many terms just to skirt around the religious restriction about using their God's name. That should be enough to tell everything, but, oh well, 'aliens', right?
My theory on how theses statues were moved is that they used beeswax. After cutting them out of the quarry they left a vein at the back and inserted it onto a tract like pathway made from Palm leaves saturated with beeswax thus a cushioned frictionless surface. To onlookers at the base of the mountain it would appear like the statues were walking. Once down on more level ground they moved them by strapping on compressed beeswax slabs under the angled front base to move them to the platforms. The rock theses statues were carved from were volcanic and quite porous therefore absorbable to the beeswax. They simply slid these enormous statues around effortlessly. Once in place they carved off the back veins and levelled the bases.
That's what I was thinking! Like the Ottoman did. Easter Island was very tree-rich back then,planks were laid down to form a path to the beach, greased and pushed rock,which would explain why Easter Island is tree-poor now
They said some of the symbols carved on the backs was half moon symbol that meaning is a sign of fertility, related to life and death, and thus a popular symbol in many religions. It pinpoints changing seasons, ebb and tide (and related inundations as harbingers of fertility), and the feminine menstrual cycle. If you notice some of the statues look like they are holding it's stomach 😳
I have a possible solution. Have a LifeSize statue carved out of the same rock as a human. Now move it and place said statue on a chosen location. If the visiting giants were the same size as the statues. If they came to earth from a place where gravity was much greater than ours, would they not move these statues with ease? We have walked on the moon !
The last method is most likely answer to the question due to one, critical factor: manpower. Rapa’Nui only had a limited population, meaning that the most manpower and resource-efficient fashion for moving the stones would be needed. This was best done with the final method, which used few resources and required only a small amount of manpower relative to the other methods (some requiring 100+ people to move a smaller stone).
The last theory looks good but if one try to move a 75 tons statue in that way, I afraid, it will sink slowly into the ground. Remember, they had to move 75 tons concentrated on a small diameter of 5-20 inches! In Germany a truck with a large power-plant-turbine had a malfunction and the load was set on a modern, bituminized road (highway qualitiy). A few hours later the leading engineer was informed, that the container with the turbine was sunk more than a half meter into the road by its own weight. One or two hours later and it would have been impossible to lift up the container!
You are correct which is why this is fake. They are laughing at people who believe this. What they made is actually hollow on the inside with rocks at the bottom of it. These were never carved out of stone they turned to stone from the flood.
+ben nichols Interesting... just guessing here, is it easier to deal with larger objects because they overwhelm the obstacles in their path? In my own experience of clearing small trees and shrubs from land, the big stuff just crushes its way through the landscape, whereas smaller stuff gets entangled with those same obstacles. But it's harder to see how this applies to the Moai, since the primary resistance they encounter is the friction which is directly proportional to their own mass. Elaborate if you wish.
This is the head and the body being shown of the size of the mojority of moai. There are fallen ones that didn't make it to their destination all over the island proving this. Some terrible misleading media reports are saying they have bodies like it's some kind of recent groundbreaking discovery. It isn't.
There are some moai that have full bodies, but they aren't how one would imagine. There's one that's shown kneeling, there are others who have a big torso buried .
They all have bodies, and archeologists have known this for like 70 years. Most are not that tall, in fact the replica shown near the end is just a little under average.
There is indeed a firm answer Hackney Shark, Buy Heyerdahl's book called "Aku Aku:" from Amazon and discover the truth - Archaeologists like this guy a re dumber than dumb because it was all worked out years ago - Time was their greatest asset - we try to understand things in terms of everything has to be done now - today - back then time had no meaning - they cut, moved and stood them to songs they sang and we'll never know how long the Maoi actually toook to make and stand....the book is one of the best reads you'll ever buy.
i feel we are actually creating a different probality and which ever is possible by current humans, we assume that this is how it would have moved, its a good way of looking but i think we have to start thinking WHY would someone wants to build a megalithic figures, even in egypt or any other places, is it just for pride, passion, is it they dint have anything much to do, they would have built huge shelters for themselves by putting same huge effort, a shleter that can last for centuries.
@@Ratigan2 the roads the moai were moved on in easter island are still accessible, the national gov has photos of some that fell over and land surveyists say the roads never inclined over 6°
I can imagine how difficult it must be for some scientists to discover the way the ancient people moved the Moai 500 years ago if they cannot properly describe the way Pavel Pavel moved Moai only 40 years ago :-(
Danny Gio Look for pictures of the easter island quarry. They were carved exactly the same way that other structures in the world like the unfinished obelisk at aswan egypt and obelisk at baalbek lebanon. Machining was involved. and advanced techology.
elTeknoo I meant what tools were used, stone ? The amount of time and effort that went into to those statues, for what purpose? We don't even know because the hieroglyphics weren't even deciphered
look up videos of acient structures like the unfinished obelisk at aswan. youll notice scoop marks. Baalbek lebanon same fashion. then look at the quarry for the moai. same technology was applied. look up magnetic stones on eastern island on youtube. they could alter magnetic fields of stones. same for puma punku. we are talking about technology we dont even posses today. lost technology. Do research on your own and then come to a conclusion. Do just believe what some man wrote on a book 100 years ago.
...in 2010 they walked a 10 ft statue that weighed what? Looked like it was made of paper mache' .....doesn't get close to explaining how they got them (up to 75 tons off their backs and) out of the quarry~
Very nice movie. It is only shame, that it´s not fully right. Pavel Pavel have moved the statues allmost the same style like the two scientists in 2011, only 25 years earlier. He was not pulling the statues as it is showed here, he was swinging them. Only the ropes were, like it is showed - one on the top (which made the statue swing) and one lower (to make it "go" forward). The only "upgrade" of the 2011 are the three ropes on top. So you can aplaud to Hunt and Lipo, but they only partly upgraded the invention of Pavel Pavel (Thor Heyerdahl was paying and managing the whole expedition in 1986).
Can you imagine trying to talk six hundred people into helping you drag a fifty-ton stone eighteen miles across the countryside and muscle it into an upright position,and then saying,"Right,lads!Another twenty like that and then we can party!" --Bill Bryson
It is probably BS that they dragged them around on trees, as the island had an erosion problem due to a lack of trees. Scraps from the carving (basically gravel and various sized rock) were used to make the loose land livable. Then if you think about it... they lined the shores with these huge, heavy statues. Then notice how the land built up around the statues instead of eroding away.
these statues are 33 ft tall(the statues being half buried), weighing 82 tons, and each had a individual hat made of stone on top of the head for all 887 giant statues, these theories are laughable .
you are right - get the book from Amazon called Aku Aku by Thor Heyerdal - it contains the coloured photos taken back in 1955 of the descendants moving, & standing the statues. Heyerdahl did not put forward a theory as mentioned here - he didn't need to.
The Moai were created by the same people that looked just like them.... in ancient scripts there is a mentioned of this island the they called it "The Giant Island". These were mere mirror statues of these giant people in those times! They also knew like most of all ancient civilizations in ancient times how to levitate megalithic stones using reverse polarity and super high wave sounds as these are amazing simple pure Natural energy/technology!
I believe those archaeologists were on the wrong track. Instead of assuming that people had transported the statues, we should assume that the statues were built on the spot with cement which could be made with the volcanic ash available on the island. To verify the cement idea, we just cut a few slices of the material from the statue and analyze them under an electronic magnifying glass to find whether there are traces of marine lives and human hair, or whether they have salt.
The fact that they actually Made a stop motion for this is just incredible
