This Michigan man believes he has discovered how the ancients managed to move and erect giant stones without machinery. He may be right!

Very cool. I'm fascinated by ancient stones so I found this a compelling possibility.

It's amazing what you can learn when you actually go out and try it, instead of just reading about it.
