A moai walking is impressive enough but a moai walking while being blindfolded is next level impressiveness

"Everyone stay calm."
"Why?"
*Points at walking Moai*
"Oh."

Anyone who claims stuff like the pyramids could only have been built by aliens is doing an incredible disservice to the ingenuity of ancient humans.

I couldn’t believe the islanders had to bury the 🗿 to contain them, but after seeing 20 people fail to stop it, I understand how strong they really are

[Bosu_ilucai]

Impressive how moai can still walk even tho theres 20 people trying to stop him

[IronBridge]

There is something instinctually terrifying about a blindfolded 🗿 walking towards you, while a whole team of people are trying to hold it back.

this guy really just says "🗿" and everyone loves him

Took them long enough to figure out that the way we move a fridge and other tall heavy furniture might be how these figures were moved. How many people saw this and had that, “OH-Yeah!” Moment? Or was it more of a, “duh” moment?

Plot Twist: The moai is actually walking by itself, the people are just trying to contain it.

Fun facts: this is actually how the local myths tell the Moais have come to the place where they are. In one of the local myths and legends, it says Moais have walked and ran all the way down from the tall mountains.

Plot twist: It's actually walking by itself, and the ropes are just guiding it since it's eyes are covered.

I love the tiny steps he's taking with its entire body. Not only is he walking, *blindfolded, * tied and held back by a few dozen men, in a harsh muddy land and without any legs or other efficient means of transportation, but he isn't even breaking a sweat, still having that iconic 🗿 expression, unscaved.

This is exactly how I plan to move the Statue of Liberty to my mom's back yard in Stockholm for a practical joke.

Everybody gangsta until the moai starts walking

Girlfriend: come over.
🗿: But i have no legs and arms.
Girlfriend: my parents aren't home.

It’s cool to see them physically trying to work out this theory. This is the times it must be fun to be an archeologist or whatever they’re field is

[FridayFroths]

He’s even pulling all those helpless people along with him. A hero.

"The moai were transported by aliens, they had no wood to make it roll"
The moai: 🗿💨 r u n

The god trapped inside the moyai: “ MY EEYEEEES, STOP!!!”
