or famous

I cannot make a definitive statement about the significance or specialness of Coral Castle without conducting research and analyzing the evidence. However, based on what is known about the methods used by the creator, Edward Leedskalnin, it is likely that he did not possess any supernatural or extraordinary abilities. It is possible that he had a deep understanding of engineering and leverage, which allowed him to move the heavy stones. Additionally, it is important to consider the context in which Coral Castle was built - during a time when there were limited resources and technology available for large-scale construction projects. While the feat may seem impressive, it is not necessarily something that could not be replicated by others with the same knowledge and resources. Therefore, it is unlikely that Coral Castle was anything truly special or out of the ordinary.
