He’s crazy if he doesn’t get those rocks placed on some sort of a table. He’s going to get real sore knees and a crick in his back if he keeps on like he is.
I think its a rock called phonolite. One of its characteristic features is that it produces a bell like tone when struck. Coincidentally it is also the same rock type that composes Devil's Tower in Wyoming.
Here's a video of some dudes banging on phonolite in Ringing Rocks State Park, Pennsylvania.

Edit: I got the park name wrong.
Am I the only one that thinks this dude was just way into hitting rocks and then one day was like “this is a…….. really old form of…… Music! I know it sounds like random wind chimes but it was umm……. Music!”
I think with a little more inspiration he could have nailed "Shape of You" by Ed Sheeran, just [like Walk off The Earth did](https://youtu.be/YV5KAbV34NU)
The legend says that rock'n roll was invented by people that used to play rocks like that near a cliff and they were careless, dropped theirrocks and they sounded really cool while rolling down the cliff.
It always fascinates me to learn about the origins of music stylings. You know why they didn't use round ones in the beginning?
It would have been too early for Rock and roll.
Prehistoric music? What other instruments did they have?
“Here we have the stick, and the men would bang it against their heads to produce a whapping sound”
This would be the equivalent of someone finding a preserved guitar 2MM years from now, and using the back as a drum and "demonstrating how a XYZ is played'
Who the fuck knows how these were played correctly.
I'd like to think their logic makes sense, but still it's cool af
Does anybody know how an archeologist can replicate a style of music that no one alive has ever heard before? Is it just like studying music history, but backwards by tracing musical styles until they get to the caveman genre?

Banging tune...
Keep on rocking in the free world...
Yeah.. for an archeologist I guess…
I can hear the heavy metal in the minerals really coming through.
Without sound dude looks crazy

Sorney and the Crickets is the name of the band
A happy Cake Day to you

I just want a hot Neanderthals babe! Who can't use a cellphone! Or take selfies!😛
Lots of DAD jokes coming your way!!!
Easily one of the best things I’ve seen on here all year 🙌🏻
Easily one of the things I've seen all year
What’s up, Doc?
I know how you feel, mister. I hate it when my igneous rocks are even touched!
I think I read a monograph on that…
Vocal reverberation under spinal pressure?
Ya know, Bannister? As in sliding down the?
“Don’t touch me, I’m a doctor.” “Doctor of what?” “Music.” “Can you fix a hi-fi?” “No.” “Then shut up!”
Hard Rock right there.
Prehistoric music was already more advanced than Nickelback, confirmed.
But even the cavemen just wanted to be Rockstars :(
What the hell is on Og’s head?
FREEBIRD!
Anyone know what kind of rocks those are?

Loved taking my kids to ringing rocks , great place we used to live near . Short hike to a great water fall. Delaware river valley is beautiful.
Came here to ask this
Watched this one mute the first time and it makes this dude look like an absolute lunatic
Now do Master of Puppets
No stairway!
No Stairway? Denied!?
Thats, way too primitive!🙄
I'd hate to hear what a non-specialist sounds like.
Watched it like five times and he plays it precisely the same way each time.
That's how videos work when you rewatch them.
Banging tune.
Meh. Liked the first album better, before he sold out to Big Gneiss.
Am I the only one that thinks this dude was just way into hitting rocks and then one day was like “this is a…….. really old form of…… Music! I know it sounds like random wind chimes but it was umm……. Music!”
There are temples in India that use this style of musical instrumentation to make the columns ring out in key when struck.
Yea I was looking into it after seeing this and it is honestly impressive when done right! This dude…… not so much lol
[The Origin of Music in Early Man](https://youtu.be/KVSBxu14gdg)
Too bad he isn’t a musician
Rock on🤘🤘🤘
Getting his ricks off
You mean [these?](https://youtu.be/eBGIQ7ZuuiU)
Grandad is in a rock band.
We got us a real Rock Star right here 🙃🙂🙃🙂🙃🙂
still better than Phillip Glass
I see the Rock, where’s the Roll?
Rock and roll!
Bet mfs were turning up when this dropped 🔥
Rock music isn’t what it used to be
So this is what the Rock genre they are talking about.

They don't make rock music like they used to

Play Wonderwall!!
It’s rock music
That is both beautiful and the most totally Flintstones thing ever.
There are temples in India which were built so that the columns themselves are percussion instruments and will ring out in key.
Crack?
Man, cavemen had sucky tastes
That's some real rock music
Beautiful.

Damn depressing...
Prehistoric music? What other instruments did they have? “Here we have the stick, and the men would bang it against their heads to produce a whapping sound”
Those are Howard Banister's Rocks what are you doing with Howard Banister's Rocks??
This research should be funded pronto
Does he take requests?
dudes back has to hurt
Now this is some rock and roll!

I feel like I would find a crazy old guy living in a cave working as an oracle doing this.
Hey now your a rockstar
An original composition, I assume...

That's Dr Howard Banister from the movie What's up Doc
(☞゚∀゚)☞
I'm so glad someone else remembers that movie
It's a film worth watching many times.
This is what they chose for those science and nature videos they made us watch in school, but they were always made in the 70s
Ones, you cant buy it Home Depot!😉
Makes me want to pee! 🙄🍆💦💦
I think that 3rd rock is a little flat. 😜
Let a professional play that so we can hear our styles of music with it
Rocking that Lydian b7
Beauty can be found in the simplest of things
[It inmediately reminded me of this soundtrack of Age of Empires](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BTeC4k7EuqQ)
Minecraft music be like
This was rock before rock was rock
Finally. A ROCK STAR
Yeah, I listen to rock
“Flintstones, meet the flintstones, they’re the modern stone age family!”
Pass the duchi on the left hand side
That was NOT the sound I was expecting.
I’ve seen this in puzzle games before I thought it was just some creative gimmick
Dude needs a table
Now that's Music With Rocks In!
so cool
The acid in the 60's was killer
My man is being so careful with that stuff
Ringo stone
❤️
Those tones could definitely play the Simpsons theme.
Crappy xylophone, boomer.
The Flintstones was actually a documentary?
Hmm, that's where I think Heilung got the inspiration for [Krigsgaldr](https://youtu.be/QRg_8NNPTD8?t=110)
He definitely got his lunch money stolen as a kid
Dude that's me after 4g of mushrooms

Straight outta "what`s up doc"
Holy shit, this sounds like it should be part of a Gamelan performance. https://youtu.be/UEWCCSuHsuQ
This (music) belongs in a Tom Burton movie.
No sound on and i could have sworn he was petting sleepy cats
I assume this is the original Rock genre

How in the fck does someone archaeologically validate the existence of stone instruments like these?
