The
Mystery Spot also know to be a gravity hill is a tourist attraction
located is a gravitational exception located in the redwood forests just
outside of Santa Cruz, California. It is a circular area of effect
around 150 feet or 46 meters in diameter and within the Mystery Spot you
will be stunned as your perceptions of the laws of physics and gravity
are questioned. But don't take our word for it, come and decide for
yourself!
The Mystery Spot was discovered in 1939 by a group of surveyors and opened to the public in 1940. The Mystery Spot has amazed and perplexed hundreds of thousands of visitors from all over the world, and many return time and time again to experience these puzzling variations of gravity, perspective, and height.
To say more, as a matter of fact, even though it might sound weird but the operators of the small site which is about 150 feet in diameter claim that it is a place where the laws of physics and gravity do not apply and provide a number of demonstrations in support of these claims, where water seems to flow upwards while people seem to be standing in slanted positions etc. It's absolutely a tilt-induced visual illusion which when experienced by visitors results from the oddly tilted environment as well as standing on a tilted floor.
Whats inside!
Inside
the tilted room of the Mystery Spot, misconceptions of the height and
orientation of objects occur. Even when people are standing outside on a
level ground, the slant of the building in the background causes
misconception as we judge the height of people using the slant of the
roof rather than the true horizon.
Some speculate that cones of metal were secretly brought here and buried in our earth as guidance systems for their spacecraft. Some think that it is in fact the spacecraft itself buried deep within the ground. Other theories include carbon dioxide permeating from the earth, a hole in the ozone layer, a magma vortex, the highest dielectric biocosmic radiation known anywhere in the world, and radiesthesia.

Whatever the cause is, it remains a mystery!
And that one must surely experience a refreshing day dedicated to weird science!
