The biggest stone he's moved is 10 tons shown in the pic below

Now Kemikal claims that Ed Leedskalnin, loaded a stone 3 times the weight, (not to mention the fact that coral stone isn't as dense so it's even more massive), using some rails, and put it on the chassis of a republic truck and towed it 10 miles.


Look at the size of the stone in the above picture add two more stones of that same size, which makes 30 tons and picture it on the back of this:

Wrong again. He has moved a lot more than that. And his method has no issue with scaling up.

Your abject ignorance and superstitious baloney is no substitute for knowledge, reason and ingenuity.

Really, dude, aliens? People using "magic"? Do you think for a moment you could grow up beyond Santa Clause?

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Huggy....he's moving stone from one of his quarries on the video..in broad daylight..in front of the crowds at the attraction..in the film we have of him working.......which you have seen.  

Right?  You watched the film you threw a fit to get..didn't you?

Actually I misspoke we wern't talking about the quarry we were talking of the 10 mile move.

 The video btw is well after the move was preformed.

So...

He'll believe a ridiculous magical story about people building a tower which nearly pierced heaven and made God angry, but he won't believe perfectly straightforward, highly evidenced stories?

Sure. Let's start with your very first post in this thread.

Oh sure.

Idle speculation is idle speculation. It all happened. You can't magic history away.

MAGIC.

Great, if true. Unfortunately for you it doesn't mean that at all. Not even close.

I'm afraid it does, or at least it's derived from it.

You "misspoke" about the quarry, and you "misspoke" about the amount of time it took, and you "misspoke" about when it happened...and you "misspoke" about which stones were moved.  You "misspoke" about there being no pictures, you "misspoke" about there being no film, you "misspoke" about there being no witnesses, you "misspoke" about there being no idea or explanation for how it was done, and you "misspoke" about the viability of a converted chassis.....

But hey, other than your entire question being as wrong as it could have been......and other than there being every type of evidence possible for every bit of what he did.. and in spite of you having received everything you asked for and then some....I'm sure you still have something to ask.  

Quote: The video btw is well after the move was preformed.
He only used that equipment when people were looking and film was rolling, ofc.  When they weren't..he levitated things for shits and giggles.  That's just what we lizard people do.

The thing he refuses to believe is far more concrete than a story.  The museum exists.  The tools are there at the museum.  There are pictures of him using them, theres a film of him using them..and..I feel like I'm taking crazy pills just for having to say this...but we do know for certain that those tools work.  We still use them to do exactly what he did with them.

He could go to the site for himself. He could even construct the tools and then replicate the work for himself...

Over and above all of that....none of it has anything to do with the pyramids or how they were constructed, or the tower of fucking babble.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
