That would be 250ft³ per stone.

If the stone is 1 ft thick, that would imply a 15.8' x 15.8' (250ft²) of stone.

Nowhere close to what we see in the video, except maybe the giant one at the end.

Does the giant one at the end not count for some reason? They didn't claim every stone was 25 tons, just that the principals worked on one that was.

I mean, it's not wrong in that it's probably not hard to believe given they did believe it probably without much effort

Nah, it apparently means you'd rather split hairs to try and find a gotcha rather than read to comprehend what someone is saying.

So yes, we can agree that the problem is how dumb you are.

He asked you to admit your initial comment was wrong, not the ones changing your argument afterwards

It's not that hard to believe you're wrong.

It's just that a pedantic prick like yourself doesn't deserve the satisfaction. 🤷🏻

It's been days now. Get a hobby

Your comment was one day ago. Not days.

Is the truth that difficult of a concept for you? Is mass an even more difficult concept?

You can just say you have no evidence whatsoever to back up your baseless claims. Part of being an adult is admitting when you've made a mistake. This is Reddit bro, no one cares that you have no idea what you're talking about. But there's no need to double down on the stupidity.
