Five places on Earth where gravity doesn't work
Why did the apple fall on Newton's head? A question that was repeated before us in the physics curriculum at school and its answer was due to the gravitational pull that affected the apple and toppled it on top of the world and what happened after that in the form of endless laws!
But what if Newton sits at the inverted waterfall in the Republic of Chile, or on Mount Aragats in Armenia, where the behavior of gravity differs from the rest of the world! Perhaps the apple would have gone up then and Newton wouldn't come up with the laws of gravity that have been so much to her exam questions!
In this article, we talk about mysterious places on the surface of the Earth where the effect of gravity decreases to the point where it may be absent and the direction of movement of objects becomes up, not down!
Mysterious places where there is no gravity!
There are five places on our planet where gravity doesn't seem to work. It might sound crazy, so maybe you should just check them out for yourself!
1. Inverted Waterfall: Located in the Republic of Chile, this waterfall flows appears to flow upward. But upon closer look, you'll realize that the phenomenon can be explained by the extremely strong gusts of wind blowing up from underneath the waterfall. Surprisingly, Chile isn't the only place where such a strange sight has been recorded - India and Australia have some upside down waterfalls too.
2. Mystery Spot: this visual illusion–based tourist attraction near Santa Cruz, California, was first opened in 1939 by George Prather. I have been to this crazy place and so can say from experience that the wooden building on the site really does appear to defy gravity, and it's true that the water flows up! Confused about what I mean? Watch the video to catch a glimpse!
3. Mount Aragats: In western Armenia, sitting about thirty kilometers from the border of Turkey, this mountain also defies all known physics, with a river flowing uphill and even cars rolling uphill on their own!
4. Magnetic Hill: In the Canadian province of New Brunswick, cars are also known to roll uphill on their own. Watch the video to find out why!
