Artist Creates Impossible Towers Of Balanced Rocks To Meditate
325Kviews
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!

I really enjoyed this. It has motivated me to try it...
lol good luck
zen master of stones
Simply amazing and breath taking, what an amazing skill to have
I would guess that EVERYONE has this skill ... but not everyone has the patience.
Absolutely right>>>
It's funny how this is impossible! :)) Very nice!
just watched the vid...I take it back...WOW
haha just saw this :)
ri
I assure you, it is very possible. I make similar balances (NO WHERE NEAR AS GOOD Michael is a pro!!!) you can videos of him too
right. my take too...but they're still really beautiful...if this were real, you'd see that on very rare occasions occurring naturally.
thank you, such beauty and creativity
Incredible.
One is nicer than another :) Amazing!
amazing
I was shocked by how he did this. fantastic.

This reminds me of Russell Heasley and his stacking abilities when he was very young
It is amazing. I share how stones around the world be implemented. Please see dsuskind.com and let's talk. dsuskind@comcast.net
Amazing, i would be far too impatient though.
Magic
These sort of hoodoos are all over the creeks in the Sedona area, no where near this amazing of course. Patience & happy rocks required ;-)
fuck it just frost
I guess I'm kind of weird bcz this was unnerving to me. I was just a touch irritable scrolling thru. Smh, i cant explain it
So magical! It's said 'seeing is believing' but it's difficult to believe this!
Turns out, it doesn't fall over no matter how hard you blow at the screen.
WOW
I think Michael is the Rock Whisperer.

There is something fishy about this. Some cobstructions are believable, but it would take quite some time & effort to find the right stones
michael Grab should be running the planet.
Michael Grab should be advising politicians - or running the planet.
What an amazing talent… very blessed.
It just goes to show that there is beauty in everyday ordinary things. You just have to find it.
Amazing!

My girlfriend and myself are used to do this everywhere we go... But we have not reached yet this level !
I think that third rock looks like it has a face when his hands hold it. like a lil rock dude meditating really ;p
Stunning and beautiful!!!
ich dachte erst das geht nur mit Kleber , aber anscheinend kein Trick dabei. echt super
He's a stoner.
O...M...G
I was just telling my girls about Michael after a hike last weekend prompted questions of how huge rocks were able to standing on end.
It's like he was willing the stones into place. Amazing and inspiring.
But, will it play in Poughkipsee?
mindblowing!!
He must be a Norwegian
Wow! Love these!!
Mamma miaaa! That's a miracle,man!
Mamma miaaa! That' s a miracle,man!

Patience level: Saint.
i know I don't have that kind of patience.... it make me sad
and the arches... Too cool
Neatest balancing act I have ever seen!
Incredible!
Brilliant!
There is somebody in the backround
Acttuly there are a lot of people in the backround
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.
Bravo! THE Mandrake of our times!
Truly amasing
тинтири-минтири! БАЛАНС ама друг път!
тинтири-минтири! баланс ама друг път!
awesome
Yep
OMG!How does he balance them?That's incredibly amazing and beautiful.
I'm impressed!
I won't believe it until I see them fall. Call me sceptic... That was incredible.
Wonderfull.
wow
What an awsome skill to put the rock like that... I'm frozen to see it.
This is cool!
This is cool
all I can say is WOW!
Fantastic!!
Amazed, bravo Michael!
Holy cow!
I don't believe it. He's using ice to hold them together.
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.
Fake stones or some kind of super glue... Almost got me :)
He's a stoner.
You are a fool if you believe they were balanced out :) They are kept together by drilling a hole and using some sort of rod obviously...
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...
haha nope. look up his videos. if you practice you start to learn how he does it. i make similar ones (no where near as good of course)
i do this since i was a lill kid, i am 33 y old now, and i tell you this: if he isnt cheating, hes carving a resting point to balance ...
He's not. you can see videos of him doing it and he's done live performances with rocks provided. other people can do this too
videos are not standards for reality .... they display that what whoever filmed wants to display. i have a very long joy of balancing
false :P 110%
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?
you can see videos of him doing it, and he's not the only one in the world who can do it. try it, you might surprise yourself
