It’s more of a story about how if you minded your own business, worked hard, and limited what you share with nosy neighbors, you used to be able to live a nice quiet life
Ed built it as pretty much what it is now, a roadside tourist attraction. That explains why he moved it , to be on the main road people would drive through. It's incredible he built it all by himself but doable for a guy like Ed, who understood how to work with stone and move very heavy objects. He was a very patient man for sure
When I visited years ago, I bought a small book that tells the tale. Ed built his castle for his "Sweet Sixteen". A young woman he was courting only to have her abandon him. Coral Castle is Ed's letter to his Sweet Sixteen. 💔💔💔
@@mirandarights9635. This is what they say .but the truth is . No1 helped him or seen him do it . He worked at nite on his own. Nothing to do with his women I don't think . More a tease for the modern man . To get there head around. You can't tell me he was still cut up about a girl 50 years later and that was still his drive. Can't see it myself. He's old enough to be her grandad in these films 🎥 😄
@guagua70 water and electric mix . Neutralizes the weight of the stone . Like a magnetic charge that comes from the water flow and the gearing from crane .makes the coral weightless.all of Egypt was done thru transportation of stones thru water and once there the subterranean chamber and the water tide creates anti gravity
"Nobody had no idea how he lifted those rocks," she said in a mystical way, while this video just showed the tools he used and how he lifted those rocks. Man, I'm tired of people.
He was a true savant. He knew how to create anti-gravity, which many known scientists unsuccessfully tried to discover till date. He stated that he knew how the Egyptians built the Pyramids. Anyway, he brought this secret to the grave. The Coral Castle should be considered one of The Marvels of the World.
@@miloslavtokar1080thats what they want you to believe.. like the Egyptian built pyramids with hammer and chisel😂 like they say he only worked at night.. when he had to remove coral castle to its current place he loaded the truck al by himself the truckdriver couldnt be there
*shows video of him moving very large stones around with pulleys* NOBODY KNOWS HOW HE DID THAT *shows video of him moving very large stones around with pulleys* OMG IT'S SO MYSTERIOUS 🧐🤣
No one has been able to replicate a similar build with his tools within modern day. Even after his death, there was an investigation on the property. Investigators weren’t able to replicate it with the original tools left over. This is why it is a mystery
all these people are rambling lies, like the girlfriend part too, that wasnt true, she was no one, he was actually a creep and said it was for a girl who was 16 when he was like 35 at the time and continued saying this his whole life, theres proof by neighbors.
@@Seanysaurus "When asked why he had built the castle, Leedskalnin would vaguely answer it was for his "Sweet Sixteen". This is widely believed to be a reference to Agnes Skuvst (often misspelled as "Scuffs"). In Leedskalnin's own publication A Book in Every Home, he implies his "Sweet Sixteen" was more an ideal than a reality. According to a Latvian account, the girl existed, but her name was actually Hermīne Lūsis." The guy was clearly a fraud. The original name of the castle was "Rock Gate," it was listed as such until 2011, and the gate was the only thing mysterious about the whole thing until it broke and was disassembled for repairs, revealing that it was on a truck wheel bearing, not mysteriously weightless as he claimed, and they renamed the place after the mystery turned out to be a hoax. Now it's a corporation and only interested in profit, but there's no mystery except why anyone would want a castle built of sedimentary rocks.
ok, there is too much missing. He built this castle for a women that he loved and she never showed up. He had a quarry and there are photos of him with a truck to move the blocks of "Rock". were they coral? Is there such a thing as coral quarry? How could he put a 15 T stone on that old 2T truck bed? That truck would not support that load of 30,000 lbs. Who saw him do it? How did he move the rock off the truck and into the yard? You would have to have floodlights to work at night in that quarry. At the castle he supposedly used a tall tripod of metal or wood legs to lift the stone. Moving that thing around would be a massive job.There was a pic of the tripod with a black box on top of the tripod supposedly it generated sound to lift an object. He was supposed to know how pyramids were built but never let on. the impressive thing is that a 12 T gate could be pushed open with your fingertip. yes, a real mystery! On my bucket list!
The power of a determined man's will is an unstoppable force. Society represses the urges of men. That is why great men like the constructor of the Coral Castle sublimate their intense urges. In his case, this originated in heartbreak. To create, for men, is to call out for something, for anything true and beautiful. Then finally one day, these tragic men leave behind mysterious, improbable wonders in their wake. Creation is merely an outlet for a man's suffering. In the dark night of his pain, he withdraws, goes to work at making the impossible possible. Such sublime creations of men are their way of escape. These works are a man's search for some sense of control, after having his spirit obliterated by that stupefying chaos, that incomprehensible nature, that a man is left with after succeeding, yet somehow, still failing, to give a woman what she says she wants. In that dragon-battle of satisfying the decadent lusts of a potential paramour, you, as a mere mortal man, are confronted with a baffling, monstrous force that rides behind a tsunami of pure capricious sollipsism: a woman who knows you like her. An infinite loop of getting shut down no matter how much you give. You learn so painfully slowly that the only thing that a man can never attain, the harder he tries to reach it, is... a woman's love. And so, Coral Castle is simply one man's refuge from this chaos emotion. It is his symbolic triumph over nature, physics, and reality. An attempt to retry that failed romance. To redo that search for beauty. But this time, within a system of meaning that actually makes sense! In creating beautiful things, a man atrempts to discover triumph and truth in an object, in nature, in a world of logic, in the clarity of cause and effect, which, to him in his lonely turmoil, is like a charity left to him by the universe. It is a gift, to create. So, creating beautiful things is a translation of pain. And sadly, for most men on this earth, to create is also to know that truth can only be beautiful in the things made by their own hands... I say, don't let them flatten your spirits: nourish your intense libidos, men, and construct immense things of beauty. The depth of suffering that only you will know, that melancholic solitude of being a man, is a resource of energy that will fuel you to make possible the impossible. For you, man, creating is the only beauty you can will into truth.
No, that was the show he's giving to the people when he invite them to see it, the actual hard work was how he could bring these huge stones that that weight tens of tons!
Was there in 92 my brother noticed no chisel marks on them It like he trurned it into styrofoam weight wise and hardness wise and rubbed them into the shape he wanted with his hands
I think it was because of the earths megnetic force plus the force of the full moon , that's why he did it at night , and it depends on the earths geo lines and magnetic force in that area ,also the make up of the corral itself I'm certain this is why he could move them so easy . It was probably like putting two magnets close to each other whatever is in the middle will float .he probably used the earths megnetic force times the moons megnetic force and the makeup of the coral to move them easily.
I'm perty sure Ed said there is no such thing as gravity and some say the moon is charged by the sun and gives off cold light from a negative charge. What if it was the moons negative energy he was using to reverse the stones magnetic attraction
Heard that as well. Their is a story of some young boys who wandered in at night when he worked and he was using some large speakers and vibrations to move a massive stone
Ahhh the power of 💕 Love. We are as strong as the weakest link .... In the words of French philosopher Pierre Teilhard de Chardin.... "Someday after mastering the winds, the waves, the tides, and gravity, we shall harness, for God, the energies of Love, and then for the second time, in the history of the world, man will have discovered 🔥 fire"
What doesn't make sense is why he wouldn't have used his power/knowledge to become the most wealthy person in human history... instead of just presumably scraping by by charging for tours as a roadside attraction in south florida...
In fact it's arguable the keeping secret of such a knowledge/power is grossly immoral. Every human on earth would benefit from this ability, it could usher in a new age of technology, billions of starving people around the world would suddenly be able to build and maintain giant infrastructure... It would completely change the world
I went there for a field trip. All I remember was getting off the school bus.......then getting back on the bus. I don't remember a SINGLE thing about the inside. When I sat back down on My seat in the bus, I was confused. Everyone was talking about how much fun they had & how cool everything was. I looked into My lunchbox & saw My food eaten. I, to this day, don't remember a thing. I never went back. Too creepy......
I want everyone in here to know "Agnes" is not a chick from latvia... and most importantly this same design is in ALL cathedrals and in the oldest parchment of the Torah. And Ed built it because the fabric of the universe is going to split just like the bible says...
Here this he saia he either discver how to work the stone meaning found some ancient text studied them or he found people stone. Builders who taught him how to work the stones back rhen...?
was there in '90 -- if you look closely there are clues--- although the largest one was removed from his work shop ( Newton's 3rd. law -- for every action there is a equal and opposite reaction..................)
I think it's fantastic. He hid it from people by working at night and he never told how he did it. I think he might also have used salfeggio frequencies. Levitation by aid of sound waves. No one has proven, yet, that this is possible, or they just aren't telling us about it. The old keep-things-hidden from people- and all of thecother addages.
@@yeetman4953 You just had to add an insult! Why? Don't you think physics people have looked at over the years? Many scientists have tried to figure it out. It was just paying attention in school, someone woild have figured it out by now.
I know exactly how he did that it's old maisonary method I learn in my youth its easy and u don't really need pulling or an wheel to sort that out u can move 30 ton some by one man hand lol
bro trust me I know what he did and thats not it he used the same technology which the egyptians used to build the pyramids it is something beyond our technology the technology he used allowed the stones to more or less become weightless allowing him to move it easily its a long explanation i just suggest you do the research
Not true! Mystery solved. Thru various tripod pulleys that magnify mechanical advantage, huge rocks can be lifted by one small man Recend short videos have been found showing him using these pulley tall tripods to lift these stones!
Coral is a sea creature. The castle is construction of the dead coral 100 years ago in Miami must of been in abundance. Coral is very expensive, due to the fact that the coral reefs around the world are sick and dying due to pollution. I heard he used some sort of levitating device to move the bricks
I heard that there was no levitation or "magic science" or "pseudoscience" involved. Pure physics. "Give me a fulcrum and a lever large enough and I could move the world!"
Called a pulley. the seafaring era with masted ships used complex pulleys so why do you assume it is magic instead of ancient tech known by ''smart'' humans.
@@Daniel_Rahl No you need afew different size format made from wood , to make it hollow ,then other stuff is sement water and stone to fill the box ,before drying is not heavy so you can easily move it ,and does a matter what size you made that format
@@chupamela7995 I specialize in cleaning algae and molds off of wood, stone and concretes. Simply making an observation that from when he built it to now it’s gotten very dirty with different things over the years. Soooooo yea! Have a great day 👍
Tidak ada yang misteri di dunia ini. Saya yakin Edward sangat dekat dengan Tuhan, maka segala rahasia pengetahuan itu terbuka didepan matanya. Ada satu kutipan dalam alkitab tertulis " barang siapa meninggikan diri di hadapanNya maka dia akan direndahkan tetapi barang siapa merendahkan dirinya maka ia akan ditinggikan di hadapanNya". Karena Tuhan dan Edward tahu, bila para ilmuwan mengetahui secara pasti rahasia ini maka akan ada penyalahgunaan untuk hal hal yang tidak diinginkan
Now we know how the pyramids were built. One guy can do al this by himself. Imagine thousands for 50 years.. nobody denies the Mexicans build their pyramids!!
