How the Easter Island statues might have been moved
New idea on how the big (90+ ton) pieces of rock where moved to their current locations. Forget logs for rolling, get out the ropes for wrangling.

Come on man, get with the program. When will people accept that it was aliens??? Aliens also did the stonework in Cusco, Peru and all other surrounding sites along with the pyramids in Egypt and Mexico. The proof is in the Millenium Falcon they found at the bottom of the ocean. What more proof do you all need?

I remember reading or watching something about this 10 or more years ago and the mentioned that there was a legend that the statues walked to the place they are now. The legend might be true. In a way they did walk.

Nice theory, but not correct. There's a big difference between "walking" a small replica and walking a full-sized 30+ foot tall head. In addition, much of the terrain is not so ideally flat as they way they tried it. There would be quite a few busted-up heads from failed attempts littering the island, otherwise. But there aren't any.
