Default lifting heavy stone post/electric winch?

Possibly how it was installed.

It's easier though with fewer, bigger, blokes (I used cage fighters
last time I needed this). Rugby players have a fair lifting capacity
each, but they're too wide to get many of them near it at once. It's
much easier if the post has a hole through it, because you can then
put a needle through it (scaff pole etc.) and then have your BBs
spaced out along the pole.
