The gate, 
            originally used as a turnstile, is perfectly mounted and balanced so 
            that a child can open it with the touch of a finger -a remarkable 
            achievement considering its size and weight. The gate is 
            approximately 80 inches wide by 92 inches tall and is 21 inches 
            thick. The gate fits within a quarter of an inch of the walls on 
            both sides. The mystery of the Nine-ton Gate has been documented on 
            TV's "In Search or', "That's lncredible" and "P.M. Magazine." 
            Publications ranging from Reader's Digest to the National Enquirer 
            have sent reporters to the castle and numerous scientists and 
            engineers have tried to seek the answer to this seemingly impossible 
            feat. No one could discover how the diminuitive creator found the 
            perfect center of gravity enabling the gate to be opened by the 
            simple push of a finger.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.world-mysteries.com/mpl_coralcastle1.htm"><div align="center"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.world-mysteries.com/img/03E69D80-689D-424B-8C71-4AACFA3D8D43" alt="" /></div></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/D6172F29-5AFE-46BB-9DE9-0E06AB670A43/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
