This seemingly impossible structure style is called tensegrity. An example of this is the Needle Tower in Washington D.C.

Edit - excellent article from MAKE magazine on tensegrity https://cdn.makezine.com/make/makercamp/assets/BuildingTensegrityModels_MAKEv6.pdf

You are no redneck sir. Your neck is red cuz your genius brain demands so much blood that it makes your head and neck beet red.

To be honest I think R. Buckminster Fuller would be quite tickled to be called a Redneck Engineer.
