That is crazy. I think it could be setup. Gravity tells me that a small rock cannot hold up a larger rock like that.

What does the force of gravity have to do with a little rock holding up a bigger rock???

I assume that the having a heavier weighted rock on top of a lighter rock and gravity applied over a wider area would cause the heavier rock to fall because the smaller rock does not have enough area to balance the larger rock.

I'm guessing that with so much time on his hands, he must not have a job - or a checkbook.

I saw that guy balancing rocks a few years ago: it's really impressive watching him do it.
