That's when you see that the human brain is also very amazing. The guy, intuitively, is actually solving complex three dimensional equations and their double derivative... Damn we, as humans, rock!

In the distance a large wave it seen, which then comes and washes over all of the rocks.
When the water clears, all of the rocks have somehow stacked into one neat tower.

Of course the combination of a seaside resort, some alcohol and an attractive woman is my preferred method of getting my rocks off - but this is still good.

fake, bird cannot stand on it without it tumbling, especially if the bird stayed vertically off the center of balance.

THIS HAS TO BE A FAKE there must be small pins and holes to accept them in these rocks, or some strong crazy glue,maybe some are real by luck, but most I cant buy it. especially the seagull landing on the rock.

I think he balanced these rocks, but I'd like to see the rocks examined. Anything from a sticky coagulant to attached magnets could secretly influence them. Also we all know that anyone with an "artsy-craft" is also able to put on a show.

#2 You have me lost with your vagueness

Amazing!

I played similar games with my defeated drinks (beer-bottles) in my favorite bar. My most complicated one however was only four bottles big 'tower' with a mug of beer on it.
It was taken a few hours to construct - 'cause the bottles need to be emptied then I had to wait my brains come back - but it is not impossible. Even in drank.
My friends talked out of continue but this guy is restore my faith in balance. (Especially without booze.)

Nice stones... or statues ?

I had to get a account just to state for the record: THIS IS REAL! This dude has talent and deserves props. I've seen him do this many times, this is a couple miles from my house.

Just kidding... that's crazy impressive.

But I still wanted to see a gust of wind or a wave come in and knock 'em all down >:)
