We’re having a hard time deciding whether Michael Grab is an artist or a magician because he creates stunning structures by rock balancing that seem to defy the laws of physics.
These seemingly impossible structures require intense concentration and meditative focus. In the video below, Grab spends several minutes nearly frozen, making tiny adjustments until he gets all of the rocks’ seemingly defy gravity.
“Over the past few years of practicing the unique art of rock stacking, simple curiosity has evolved into therapeutic ritual, a sort of meditation type, nurturing mental well-being, and artistry of design,” writes Grab in his artist statement.
Scroll down below to check his impossibly cool art for yourself!

So magical! It's said 'seeing is believing' but it's difficult to believe this!

There is something fishy about this. Some cobstructions are believable, but it would take quite some time & effort to find the right stones

Job in the Bible did not have greater patience than this guy. Isn't this something ? I would try such an art if I were locked up for life.

So . . . how did you write this article and never mention Andy Goldsworthy? He is the artist who is famous for making just this kind of art.

You are a fool if you think they were balanced and this takes skills :) They were put together by drilled holes and probably metal rod...

He knew exactly how to place them, he had glue lined up ready to go, the wind would easily knock this structure, remember earths atmosphere?
