You can also see lot of people trying Rock balancing. This often can be a spectacle depending upon the interpretation by its audience. Rock balancing or stone balancing (stone or rock stacking) is an art, discipline, or hobby in which rocks are naturally balanced on top of one another in various positions without the use of adhesives, wires, supports, rings or any other contraptions which would help maintain the construction’s balance.
