How’s it going all of you most amazing top teners?
I’m your host Landon Dowlatsingh and welcome back to another most amazing top 10 video.
I want to learn more about you guys so let me know in the comments where you are from?
I’m from Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
So even though the law of gravitation has not changed at all, there are actually some
places on earth that seem to contradict it.
It’s almost as if gravity doesn’t exist in these places.
So here are the top 10 places on Earth where Gravity doesn’t seem to exist.
Starting us off in at number 10 with Mystery spot in Santa Cruz, California.
This anti-gravity area was discovered in 1939 by a group of surveyors and it was later open
to the public in 1940.
At this mystery spot, the laws of gravity don’t appear to apply here because you can
see balls rolling uphill and people leaning over past their toes without tumbling over.
Some people have a lot of conspiracy theories about this place but I think it might just
be a tourist trap.
Number 9 brings us to Magnetic Hill, Canada.
Visitors will drive to the bottom of this world-famous hill and release their foot off
of the break then their car will start to roll uphill, defying the laws of gravity.
This attraction is known as a natural phenomenon driven by a magnetic force, but it still seems
pretty cool.
Saint Ignace Mystery Spot, Michigan, USA makes it into number 8.
Back in the 1950s, 3 surveyors came from California to explore the Upper Peninsula when they stumbled
across an area of land where their surveying equipment didn’t seem to work properly.
As they continued to research this land, they noticed a constant feeling of being light-headed.
Apparently in this 300 foot diameter, you will experience objects behaving irregularly
and you will feel really strange physical sensations.
Now in at number 7 we have Magnetic Hill, Australia.
This magnetic hill is located on black road on rural South Australia and as you drive
along this road, you will discover that gravity is very strange in this location.
And that’s because when you drive down the hill and put your car in neutral, it will
begin to drive itself uphill.
Anywhere else and your car would continue to roll down the hill.
Waterfall, Faroe Islands falls into number 6.
Can you guys imagine a waterfall flowing upwards?
No?
Well here is an example of that in the Faroe islands that is located in the Atlantic Ocean
between Scotland and Iceland.
Although it might seem like gravity doesn’t exist in this area, it’s actually the powerful
winds that are responsible for creating this illusion.
Number 5 takes us all the way over to Magnetic Hill, Leh Ladakh, India.
Here we have another magnetic hill of some kind because this location is also known to
pull cars uphill.
But some people even say that even passing airplanes have to increase their altitude
in order to avoid being pulled in by this strange force.
Electric Brae, Scotland makes its way into number 4.
Here we have a location where people feel as though they are being drawn uphill by a
mysterious force when in reality; it is just an optical illusion.
Although the road appears to be running uphill, the configuration of the land on both sides
of the road make it look as if the slope is going in the other direction.
So that is why a car on the road in neutral will appear to move slowly “uphill.”
Up next in at number 3 we have the Hoover Dam, Nevada, USA.
If you are planning on visiting it, try to do this little experiment.
Try to pour water from a bottle over the Dam.
You will see that it won’t go down but instead, the water will flow up.
This happens because of the very powerful upward current that the Dam creates.
The water is actually carried upward by the wind but it is still pretty cool to see.
Mysterious road, Jeju, South Korea comes into number 2.
This is a famous anti-gravity road in South Korea where many tourists go to visit.
A lot of people believe that there is a mysterious force that prevents gravity from working properly
in this location.
But in reality, this is just another spot where an Optical Illusion is fooling people.
The mysterious road has a downward slope of 3 degrees but it appears uphill because of
the higher surroundings.
Finally in at number 1 is the Hudson bay, Canada.
For more than 40 years, experts were baffled when they discovered an anti-gravity zone
surrounding the Hudson Bay in Canada.
Scientists were unable to explain why gravity was so much weaker in this area, until now.
In their investigations, the discovered that the Laurentide Ice Sheet, which used to cover
a lot of Canada and the northern United States, was so large that it dented the Earth 10,000
years ago which cause gravity to become weakened in this area.
Scientists believe that it will be 5,000 years before the Earth can recover and get back
to a normal level of gravity in this area.
Well there you guys have it…
