If it’s that heavy how are they picking it up?

Nah, 2.5 tonne seems about right

But regular workers back then didn’t understand what those weight numbers/hieroglyphs meant, so they just picked it up unaware it’s way too heavy to do so.
The photographer was giggling at them & about to explain how heavy the blocks are - but doing so a lot of workers would be immediately pancaked.

Thank you. Finally, some logic!
