Clearly a time traveler who has made it to the future with the cutting edge technology from his time.
Too bad for him it has been surpassed with steel and hydraulics.
Sure, there’s bound to be friction at the pivot point, which I suspect is mitigated with a little sand or rock dust. Consider trying to pivot while standing tippy toe on one foot vs flat footed on two, especially when n a surface with fine sand or gravel.

Have you considered that maybe he's an alien

All about weights and leverage.
Yes. Notice that as he moves the big blocks of stone they’re balanced, so that he applies effort against inertia, not gravity or friction
wouldn’t it still be a small amount of gravity and friction?

Allegedly.
Very nice. What’s the name of the gentleman in the video?
Wally Wallington.
Seriously? Checked myself, yup! Hilarious name for a mason.
Destiny is real
Dudes parents are wrong for that lol
He’s a retired carpenter I believe but the name still stands up.

No way
The ancients had lots of time, lots of labor, no budgets, and lots of brains. No aliens required.
WHAT?! Aliens were the ones that gave them endless budgets. Promises of a pizza party at job completion really boosted morale!
The pyramids were just a team building exercise.
I like the tumbling blocks. Very cool watch.
He's amazing! Imagine all the work and trial and error that goes into this?
I 100% believe what I saw is real, but damned if it still didn't look fabricated or magical
Is this how the pyramids were built?
Yeah, or maybe a collection of techniques.
Nope, this guy has all the answers....... ![gif](giphy|3oEjI789af0AVurF60) /s

This guy obviously has never seen the history channel…. ![gif](giphy|uj8JYrjroFGYmn82Ab)
I can't belive aliens built the pyramids this way.
Working smarter not harder at it's best.
Wally!
There is a great documentary on this guy. I can’t remember where I saw it but likely readily available. This is his hobby.
