Leonland - Leon Barnard
Chapter 1 > San Diego
This is possibly the most amazing thing I've ever seen. There is a guy down by the water here who stacks rocks all day. He starts in the morning and at 5:00 pm he knocks them all down, only to re-stack many of the same rocks in different ways another day.
Yes, all of these rocks are perfectly balanced on top of each other. No adhesive or magic, just physics.
Amazing, huh?
Wow.
Some close-ups of these unbelievable creations.
And here's "The Rock Guy" in action. It usually takes him anywhere between 5 minutes and 1 hour to balance a single rock. And he never re-orients the rock once he places it, he just re-adjusts its weight until it stays.
In addition to the amazing "Rock Guy", San Diego has some pretty great sunsets too.
