The Mystery Spot is not some carnival type thing. It's an actual gravitational anomaly. No one knows what's actually going on. There's basically a spot on a hill where gravity works funny. Someone tried to built a shack on top of this hill and it slid down, stopping right in the center of the Mystery Spot. Everything about this shack looks slanted. You cannot stand straight. Here's a picture of my brother inside the house. He is not standing like this on purpose. I should've taken a picture of the whole group of people, all standing slanted at the same angle. It felt weird too. My mom got dizzy.
Our tour guide put this piece of wood near the window of the shack. It looked really slanted but the liquid level didn't think so. And when she rolled a b
all "down" the piece of wood, it rolled for a while and then came back "up". It was sooo weird.Here's a picture of a pendulum tilted at the same angle. When you push it towards the corner of the house, it swings easily. But when you try to push it the other way, it gets heavier and harder to push. AND when it swings, it gains momentum when it goes towards the corner and actually starts hitting the wall after a few swings. I don't think that's supposed to happen!!
It was worth the $5 per person and guided tour. I wish they let us stay longer but I guess it was a busy day.
