MONCTON MAGNETIC HILL, CANADA

 Gravity hill, by now you know what happens. The hill looks like it
is an up slope but it is actually a downslope and our brains
misinterpret the visual interpretation. Residents here have
monetised this experience, visitors can experience falling back
uphill for a charge of 6 Canadian dollars.
KINDER DOWNFALL ENGLAND

 98 ft tall
 Flows normally mostly
 But under some wind conditions, the waterfall is pushed up instead
of down. This waterfall also freezes in winter, but fortunately, the
wind isn’t strong enough to send chunks of ice back up during that
season.
SANTA CRUZ MYSTERY SPOT,
CALIFORNIA, USA
 Discovered by George Prather after his cabin slid down a hill in the 1940s.
 Has a cabin built on a slant whose dimensions give an impression that things
move uphill. People can lean forward as much as they want without falling!
 Some suggest that it is the result of the meteors falling here or an
electromagnetic field
 ELECTRIC BRAE SCOTLAND

 What is the electric brae?

 The Electric Brae is a gravity hill in Ayrshire,
Scotland, where a freewheeling vehicle will
appear to be drawn uphill by some
mysterious attraction. The phenomenon is an
optical illusion.
 Placing a car in neutral facing downhill, the
car begins to roll backwards up the hill
instead of rolling forward. Known locally as
Croy Brae, the half-mile stretch might appear
to be running up or downhill, but an optical
illusion created by the surrounding landscape
dupes the brain into contorting reality.
