Was Stonehenge built by just 1 man?

Quote:I'd like to see how he gets a lintel across the two uprights. He's done it at least once, since the end result is shown in the video, but how he did it is not. However he did it, it is probably pretty ingenious.

Unless I'm off my rocker, it should be possible to do it with three of those teeter-totter setups in a row. The lintel in the center goes up first, higher than the two supporting pieces sit, but it isn't put on end; it just sits there for awhile. Then he puts in the other two pieces as he did in the video, then lowers the center piece back down. Could get some weird, and potentially dangerous stability of the center in this setup, though.
