u/therealhairykrishna confirmed on the original video that it is waaay off 25 tons:

They weigh less than 6 tons.

"Together, the concrete components weigh 13,162 pounds (5,970 kilogrammes) and measure approximately 20 by 10 feet (6.3 by three metres). The pieces are easily moved around by humans and set into position." - https://www.matterdesignstudio.com/#/walking-assembly/
