If you had visited Coral Castle 60 years ago, you would have been greeted enthusiastically by a man weighing a mere 100 pounds and just over 5 feet tall.  Ed Leedskalnin, obsessed with his love for a young lady, labored for 28 years to build a coral rock monument to her.  Incredibly, he carved and moved over 1,100 tons of rock without human assistance.  Since it is documented that no one ever witnessed Ed's labor in building his rock gate park, some thought he had supernatural powers.  Ed would only say that he knew the secrets used to build the ancient pyramids!
