With less technology they were likely more adept at finding solutions to such problems. People always forget that older races were not stupid – just less technologically advanced.

There was no heavy equipment at the site, and neighbors never heard anything unusual during the construction. He also moved the entire construction to a site miles away, and rebuilt it there. The example in the video is only one way, there are undoubtedly others. The fact remains that there are massive stone constructions in the world of various ages whose construction defy explanation using current accepted knowledge. This video depicts one of the possible explanations, and is more plausible than many of the other theories. The guy who built Coral Castle could have used the same techniques or taken a different approach entirely. He did, however, manage to move large stones without heavy machinery. 7,

Not that I blame the guy that built the place for not working while others are watching; "helpful" people who "just wanted to be polite and say Hi", or who are "just curious" are a pain when I'm trying to do something.

I visited there years ago before whichever hurricane that was that devastated the area. I always wondered if it was damaged. That place is amazing. This technique would explain how Ed Leedskalnin built it. Ah, the Coral Castle. I visited there years ago before whichever hurricane that was that devastated the area.
