Chariot Festival Involves Heavy Chariots and Breaking Wooden Blocks

The claim that wooden blocks are placed under the chariot wheels to control its speed, that these blocks break into pieces, and that workers collect these pieces to load onto a tractor is supported by the video transcript. The transcript also mentions people placing and collecting the broken wood, and a tractor in the background.

However, the claim that the chariot weighs 350 tons is not substantiated by the provided web context. While tamarind wood is mentioned as being used for various items including furniture and wheels in Reference 1, there is no direct evidence in the provided context that the specific wooden blocks used for the chariot are made of tamarind wood.

Reference 8 mentions tamarind kernel powder and tamarind seeds, but not tamarind wood in this context. Reference 2 discusses chariot wheels and their construction but not the use of tamarind wood or blocks for speed control.

Reference 7 lists 'WOODEN CHIPS' and 'BLOCKS, WOODEN, COMPRESSED' but does not specify tamarind wood for this purpose. [1][2][3]
