  • This Documentary has been registered with the library of Congress and I am awaiting the VSA pursuant issuance number. Replicas, and other engineering "toys" will be available upon request. Contact me if interested. For now I will customize an order. later when this engineering truth becomes "accepted" I will produce cookie cutter replicas for the masses. depending on the demand. Full Ed Leedskalnin machine replicas will also be available. wheel, tripods, and yokes etc will be full setups like an old working train set.

      No, it doesnt...lol. His 'engineering solution' is all but bunk. How did Ed charge those batteries? Did he put ANY type of power measurement into this? He just 'plugs in the wheel', shows it spinning...and says 'this is how it works'. Yeah well, how many batteries did it take? Did he cut ONE rock with this method? Do you know how many batteries it would take to cut rock in this way? How did Ed charge those batteries? With his tiny 'hit and miss' engine he had (most don't even know he had this). This is extremely inefficient. You would be better off using the mechanical energy from the generator its self to cut the stone. Ed only had ONE cutting device, which is seen at his 'at work' photo. This guys explanation above is all but a distraction from the 'real' technology used. Just like Tesla...they don't want you to know the real stuff. This guys explanation is bunk...utter junk.

Even for a layman unsavvy in the field of electric machines, the methodical way you went through all the details allowed me understand the working principle..... I have little pity for mystics and quacks, however clever they may be, but lets assume Ed Leedskalnin had his reasons. Thanks again for the hard work!

I want to know how he cut the rocks and what the wheel REALLY did. The rest SHOULD be obvious like all the rest of the giant sites, BUT how did they CUT the rocks. Eds wheel is an old DC machine.
      Does S stand for Stupid you say? He NEVER had utility power everyone knew that but he did have BATTERY power. for lights BUT MAINLY TO CUT ROCKS. NOTHING else. its a stone garden not a engineering museum. Lets try to keep is simple. You know the rest. And I beg to differ my good man it is NOT SILLY. I am hurt.

    Thanks for the explanations, you really show how much of a mechanical genius Ed was; and to have unraveled how it was all possible, you are a genius yourself. We had a man that retired where I live around the early 20th century who spent about 10 years in retirement digging out a cave complex. He didn't do it for any other reason than passion and to keep in good shape, and he was proud of his work. After he passed away, many legends sprang up about the origin and purpose of the caves, most of which were totally bogus. It's no surprise that the Coral Castle would end up shrouded in myth, anything people don't understand the purpose of ends up with its story told in a mixture of facts and lies.

      Thanks, I was wondering if even the masons have forgotten the secrets they once knew, and I think you may have confirmed my suspicion. Another mason I talked to was aware of high level sacred geometry, and we were able to have a conversation based on the trinity and the clover being the center points for much deeper understanding than the flower of life. What I know comes from no order, and I think I remember what I know from previous incarnations. Once you figure out the 7 point star, the rest just falls into place through experimentation.

If one has no knowledge of what is required to actually handle blocks the size of those used in the construction of this monument.or for that matter,. assembling the blocks once they are in the general vicinity of where they are intended to go, they might consider this a AH HA video. What is it that makes some people so driven to explain things, that others, highly knowledgeable/experienced in their particular field, operators, engineers, stonemasons, ironworker, etc. etc.can not explain? The only explanation that I've found for it is FEAR, absolute terror of the unknown. That said, why don't one of you that feels that this video has enlightened you, removed enough of the mystery to build just one of the creations within CORAL CASTLE, DO IT.

      My friend. The video says that his father and grandfather were stone masons. He was also an experienced rigger. Mr. Russel also clearly showed how the cutting process occurred and how the flywheel was implanted. The only reason he didn't demonstrate how to cut the actual coral was due to the fact that there isn't any in Vermont. However, , I am afraid, the purpose of pointing a telescope at a star, was taken to the grave with Mr. Leedskalnin.

  • @brianclark7719
    @brianclark7719 5 ปีที่แล้ว +70

    Two big problems - 1st ) Regardless of your example, the design you suggest does not provide ample force to do anything of the magnitude it would require to work the coral. Fact ) Scientists have commissioned contractors to use whatever heavy machinery they would like to replicate the work and precision - they were unable to do so. 2) The wheel was not free spinning, instead was enclosed within another ring of block shaped machinery and was hand cranked at the very least to get the process rolling (as seen in several photos of Ed and remnants at coral castle) . Another piece that just does not work well with your idea - Ed moved every block of the castle by himself (and a driver who was not allowed to help him) onto a flatbed, and off the flatbed - to an entirely new location. I am quite comfortable saying that had he only been using a pulley system and tripods - the driver would have had no problem identifying how Ed moved the blocks. Instead, he had no idea how Ed did it. While your suggestions do pose as possibilities - unless you can undertake something just as advantageous as Ed has done on your own , with your theory and no help, do not suggest you know how it was done otherwise the only thing you are doing is showing how pompous you really are. And Ed definitely deserves more respect than that.
    And finally - the 1930's video is hollywood at its finest. If you're telling me that you believe what you see in film then oh boy.. This HAS become deluded.... Ed worked at night - and did not share his secrets in his writings, visitors, nor onlookers. When asked, he wouldn't share it - and almost lost his life as a result of this: which also was the premise of him moving his castle. IF it was a matter of simple mechanics and machinery , I do not think Ed would have had any problem sharing it with the rest of us. Instead of his two books being cryptic; he would have just laid it all out. I'll give credit where credit is due; your suggestions 'sound' convincing - now get out there with your theory, cut some 30 ton coral slabs out of the earth, pulley and stack them and prove it to the world. Otherwise, just another sham.

    Thanks for making this video. My family has been in Miami since 1919. I was always unhappy at the recent bizarre theories people used to attribute how Ed was able to build his stoneworks. Many of them claim he used unknown magical and mysterious forces that normal humans were incapable of. The truth was he was a wonderful stonemason and engineer. He did not have alien help, he had a lot of intelligence and grit and gumption and the desire to create that is in most of us. Ed should be held as an example of what we can all do when inspired, not portrayed as some mystical person who had access to otherworldly nonhuman resources. I think the creator of this video showed a similar amount of ingenuity and desire to create as much as Ed. Thanks a lot for making and sharing and inspiring.

      Nerdy McNerdlington Thanks for responding. I was hoping to see the duplicated apparatus perform the job since the video is supposed to have cracked the conundrum. I appreciate you pointing out the 10:15 mark because I did miss it before. This video is still a theory of how it was done to me and not the explanation since it wasn't duplicated on film. Thanks again.

      There is no way those stones weighed anywhere around 30 tons. They were more like 2.5 tons. The blocks would have to be close to nearly 9 ft. cubes or 27 cubic yards to have that much weight. They look to be closer to 2 cubic yards on the video. It's coral not granite.

    Seems to me quite plausible. The idea of using a band/cable saw makes a lot of sense. Add in some moisture to keep the band/cable cool and the coral rock a bit soft/brittle and I like it. If you notice the coral is quite porous, unlike granite and other harder stone. I have found some coral to be quite hard but not as hard as many stones are. Excellent presentations. I'm going to give it a big thumbs up.

      No, it doesnt...lol. His 'engineering solution' is all but bunk. How did Ed charge those batteries? Did he put ANY type of power measurement into this? He just 'plugs in the wheel', shows it spinning...and says 'this is how it works'. Yeah well, how many batteries did it take? Did he cut ONE rock with this method? Do you know how many batteries it would take to cut rock in this way? How did Ed charge those batteries? With his tiny 'hit and miss' engine he had (most don't even know he had this). This is extremely inefficient. You would be better off using the mechanical energy from the generator its self to cut the stone. Ed only had ONE cutting device, which is seen at his 'at work' photo. This guys explanation above is all but a distraction from the 'real' technology used. Just like Tesla...they don't want you to know the real stuff.

      Someday I will write a book and there will be a "sub appendix" for the "potentially enlightened" open minded folks including leyline theory, anagrams of alien orientation, and a few "contraversial" spiritual subjects and commentary etc. That will probably be about the book in every home.

    The time and dedication in this video certainly deserve the number of views it has got in these 4 years. It is true that the guy in this video uses almost the same kind of things they let him see in the old vintage videos and the remaining of the museum, however with the machines he has built in this documentary never in this world he or anybody can build a Coral Castle like Ed did, in fact with those tools from this video he couldn't build even a wooden house. A real mystery solver would be a real cutting on the rock or a real lifting/moving of a 40-ton rock. I agree that was all his opinion of how it could be done not mystery solver at all.
