Vwolf: The landscape is opposite hence the road goes up while the land goes down and vice versa. You could create this in your yard with sand or earth or...and charge people money giving this illusion.
+Pyaar Suravira A level wouldn't tell you anything other than which way is up relative to the direction of the gravitational forces affecting it. It would be mostly worthless when trying to determine if you are experiencing an optical illusion or a legitimate gravitational anomaly. If non-magnetic things are rolling "uphill", a level is *_always_* going to tell you that direction is "downhill", regardless of the actual altitudes of the "top" and "bottom". The only time a level would be useful is if you could find a spot where it suddenly begins reading differently than previous measurements would suggest it should. For example: If while at the top of the hill, the level reacts as you would expect, but as you travel towards the bottom, it begins to reverse which way is "up", then you've just found yourself a genuine anomaly. If, on the other hand, measurements consistently show the same direction as "up" for the entire length of road, you've just wasted a bunch of time and have gotten practically no useful information. Determining the altitude of the "top" and "bottom" of the hill is the only surefire way to determine whether it's an optical illusion or a gravitational anomaly.
+Wells actually, a level would tell you which way is up and which way is down. A level with a small air bubble works using gravity. Supposedly the cars are being pulled "up" br gravity (doesnt really matter whats pulling the cars up). So a simple level will tell you which way up actually is, and you'll be able to see that "up" is actually down. Problem solved!
Shehan Conrad The fact that the air bubble works using gravity is the precise reason it's useless in this particular situation. It is incapable of telling the difference between an optical illusion such as the one in this video and a genuine gravitational anomaly, should such a thing exist on Earth. If the "top" of the hill really were at a higher altitude than the "bottom", and objects are rolling uphill, the level is going to tell you that the top is the bottom. Without knowing the altitudes of the two points, you have no way of knowing whether the level is reporting "up" relative to the center of the Earth, or some other gravitational force. Remember: "Up" is simply the opposite direction of the sum of the gravitational force vectors acting on an object.
the psychologist was totally unnecessary lol. if the surveying results show the real elevations, then the so called 'illusion' can be solved by the engineers themselves.
MarcLloydz Obviously the car would still roll downhill but the point of the video was to explain why downhill looked like uphill and I am sure you couldn’t explain that.
I drove this hill 40 years ago, and was convinced that gravity was reversed, until I stopped the car and took a pee at the side of the road, water always runs downhill.
The "five senses" that grade school teaches us is woefully innacurate. We have more senses than that, one being our sense of balance with the main sensing organ being the vestibular system of the inner ear.
+Alex Parr You just have to be really quiet so you can hear the hill tell you which way is up. But don't be too quiet, because then you might hear it telling you to swerve into the bicyclists.
I don't know, maybe you can't tell if you're upside down or not. We humans got some form of Accelerometer to sense forces and acceleration. Stand in a steep hill see your body's angle relative to the ground. If you argue that under water people can lose their way (as in which way is up or down), sure they do because underwater you get boyency force from the water that opposes gravity so you get less sense of gravity direction. In an airplane, without looking outside i know when the airplane tilts clockwise or counter clockwise. That's totally normal.
I remember a television programme years ago about a road in Scotland (probably the same one), that did this and I always wanted to see for myself. The fascination is not that gravity has been defied, it's the shape of the whole landscape that creates a false illusion. I still haven't seen it, but I fear that with all the head scratchers crawling in neutral along there, the Scottish highways authority will be placing armco barriers with built in bubble levels, very carefully set out with lasers beamed off satellites to avoid any confusion; and the illusion will be lost
ACTUALLY,its proven by mark shucbin a forensic motion picture analyst.he says that essentially creating a fake landing on the moon would be IMPOSIBLE!! In the 60s
I cant believe a video this long is required to explain why it looks like things are rolling uphill... is it not obvious? Did people truly believe that gravity was wrong on that particular road?
To be fair the more jarring part of that sentence was the "we don't listen to our other senses". Our vision and brains actually do a lot of things to fill in a puzzle, so its not always accurate. However I don't get how other senses would help here. Taste the dirt? Feel the road? Hear the wind hitting the pavement at an angle?
I remember an old student teacher I had back in grade school that told the class about her trip to Scotland and how they stopped their car on an uphill road and it moved forward on its own. I had no idea wtf she was talking about, NOW I know what she was talking about almost 20 years later. This is so cool!
There’s also a road like this in Barbados! I went on vacation there and we took an Uber and he showed us a road he backed up and put the car in neutral and it pulled the car upwards! It was a sick experience!
The psychologist has it figured out. How cool. The same landscape phenomenon occurs here in Gold Hill, Oregon on Sardine Creek road. They have a mystery house set up here and they demonstrate water flowing uphill. Much like some of the rooms at the Winchester Mystery House in San Francisco there are rooms that will make taller people look shorter than others.
Magnet Hill is a gravity hill located near Leh in Ladakh, India. The layout of the area and surrounding slopes create the optical illusion of a hill. The hill road is actually a downhill road. Objects and cars on the hill road may appear to roll uphill in defiance of gravity when they are, in fact, rolling downhill
In certain situations it's hard to tell if you're going up or down hill. When in doubt get out and have a pee and see which way it flows. (= It's not that complicated!
It is most likely a similar optical illusion. NASA and DLR launched a joint mission known as GRACE which mapped the earth's entire gravitational field with astonishing accuracy. I highly recommend reading the Wikipedia page on the mission, it is quite fascinating how they pulled this off. Anyway, it was found that the min/max magnitude of earth's gravity anywhere on its surface is 9.7639m/s^2 and 9.8337m/s^2, which you likely would not even notice. As for it's direction, this can of course also fluctuate ever so slightly depending on location, but only if you had very very precisely calibrated equipment. As far as human senses are concerned gravity is effectively a constant magnitude and points directly towards the core, regardless of where you are on the planet. Hope I could provide some interesting information.
If the road surveyor leveled his equipment inside a gravity anomaly using a bubble level, then his equipment is being fooled too. It is gravity dependent initially. It didn't show him referencing from afar or using accurate GPS data to get independent MSL data. He was inside it.

There is a similar place at Jenkinstown on the Cooley peninsula north of Dundalk in Ireland. It is known as Gravity Hill or Magic Hill. It is eerie to stop a car at the bottom of the hill and then see it roll uphill. I have long maintained that it is an optical illusion and, in fact, the car is actually rolling downhill. Thank you for confiming this. I now have a reference to show people in future.
1:33 "This looks like the top of the hill ,right? - No? - And this looks like the bottom of the hill, right? - Absolutely nope, no, you drunk? - WRONG. - Told you so..."
There’s a road not far from me in NJ that has a hill we call gravity hill. If you come to a stop on it and put your car in neutral and let go of the brake, your car will start coasting backwards uphill. Obviously it’s an illusion it’s just the way the hill is sloped compared to the road, but it 100% looks and feels like gravity is pushing you uphill backwards
The whole presentation was dubious, and rather than the landscape playing tricks it appears that the presenters are playing tricks, first they get a load of complicated technology, then they get a orwellian to talk about "conspiracy theories" (God musta conspired with Himself when he made the dude and set the law of gravity), then they get a psychologist - All they had to do was get a water level commony found at a local builder's merchant or 99p shop and put it on the road. or if unconvinced and needing a bit more drama, one vertical stick and a protracter to measure the angle (-90* / +90*) ?or even more dramatic - two upright sticks of the same size and a long horizontal stick with a water level between the two, and see which stick is higher than the horizontal stick and use a bit of pythagoras theorem to clarify the angle.people were just left feeling inadequate and wondering at the complicated nature of the tests and hypothesis and some were even left to speculate since the displayed "horizon" wasn't level
Thank you. I bicycle on a trail where a quarter mile segment of that trail seems to have the same effect as this road. I always thought it might be a wind current, but then even on a calm day I'm peddling "downhill." Case solved.
This road is the A719 near Dunure Mains, Ayrshire, Scotland, close to the coast. The section that appears to defy gravity is known as Electric Brae, for obvious reasons. I would occasionally use that road when going out for a pleasant drive and every single time I used it there would be cars that would stop and then the driver would release the handbrake and be amazed that car seemed to be rolling uphill. There would also be people with spirit levels, but that is a waste of time because it is not a constant slope from top to bottom, some parts are in fact dead level, it’s just the overall effect that is so convincing. It’s no wonder it’s a bit of a tourist attraction, I have taken family members there myself when they have come up from London for a holiday. It’s a fun thing to do and I do understand why people stop on the road, it’s no big deal, the road has a couple of places where you can stop and not be a nuisance or danger to other road users, providing they are not driving too fast down a country lane.
Same thing in New Brunswick near Moncton. I have been there twice and it is an optical illusion. a little stream beside the road and the water goes uphill until you turn around then the hill is back to normal. They call it the magnetic hill.
We’ve got the same thing happening here in Dundalk Ireland, there’s no trick of the eye playing a part, your car will be pulled up the hill, it’s a magnetic pull, iff u throw a beer top out you will see it being pulled along too.
There’s a house like this in Santa Cruz. It’s a huge tourist attraction. It is explained at the end of the video. It’s just the background makes it seem opposite of what it truly is.
We have one of these roads near to where I live in south Ireland. Little stream beside looks like it runs uphill and cars go “uphill” too. Always fun with friends to freak them out 😉
Same thing near Moncton New Brunswick. Canada. It's called Magnetic Hill. We used to go there regularly as kids. I've always wondered. Now I know. Similar situation nearby there as well, The Reversing Falls. The tide in the Bay of Fundy comes in so fast and is so high, about 60 feet, that the St. John River flows backwards.
In A Maze'N Things in Phillip Island, VIC, Australia, they have a room like this. The room is on a steep angle, and then there's things in the room on a less steep angle. So you have water appearing to flow upwards, for example.
Guy: “These optical illusions fool us because we rely too much on our eyes, and dont listen to our other senses” Psychologist: *figures it out with his eyes*
We have the same thing in South Australia. Its an illusion of a road going up or down because of the background isn't flat or even. But the town and council, promote it with signage.
Although the road appears to be running uphill, a suitably free-running vehicle will slowly move off from a standstill. It was widely believed that vehicles were being propelled uphill by a mysterious magnetic force, but the road's apparently uphill slope is an optical illusion.[1] This runs the quarter mile from the bend overlooking Croy railway viaduct in the west (286 feet Above Ordnance Datum) to the wooded Craigencroy Glen (303 feet A.O.D.) to the east. Whilst there is this slope of 1 in 86 upwards from the bend to the Glen, the configuration of the land on either side of the road provides an optical illusion making it look as if the slope is going the other way. Therefore, a stationary car on the road with the brakes off will appear to move slowly uphill. There are hundreds of gravity hills around the world. The explanation often given for the phenomenon is that of a visual illusion, similar to the well-known Ames room in which balls can appear to roll against gravity. There you have iz
There is a place in Ireland where cars roll up hill! it's near Sligo in the mountains, its know as the magic road! Oddly the government has not put up any signs for this,so you have to ask for directions, it's on the bundoran side of sligo town,about 15min out from sligo on the rhs
As someone who uses this road regularly it's a pain in the arse when people try this trick right in the middle of the road.

I probably would've liked this mediocre comment until you edited it.. some ego
LAMOOOW maybe the way it was before made less sense before... we don’t know. It could’ve had a punctuation mark in the wrong place that confuses the reader. At least they had the “Ego” to care about what their comment appears to look like.
...Or they had a spelling mistake. We don’t know.
LAMOOOW Also /rwoooosh me if you have to. If you were kidding, use ScRaMbLeD WrItInG to convey sarcasm next time.
LAMOOOW 🤡 wdym its kinda funny its litterally opposite of what they said
2:10 what my goldfish see when I’m looking in the fish tank
Don’t you mean *every road in Australia*
Imagine being a cyclist unintentionally stumbling across this road.
Especially if it's before he goes to the pub....
2:56 what other senses am I supposed to smell the slope of the road lmao
No your taste
Wtf it's 7yrs ago and the quality is mind blowing 🔥🔥🤯
There is a similar place at Jenkinstown on the Cooley peninsula north of Dundalk in Ireland. It is known as Gravity Hill or Magic Hill. It is eerie to stop a car at the bottom of the hill and then see it roll uphill. I have long maintained that it is an optical illusion and, in fact, the car is actually rolling downhill. Thank you for confiming this. I now have a reference to show people in future.
Hey guys see you in another 3 years when this is back in our recommend
TwoMac alright bet
Can't wait!
Just commenting to get the noti if it happens
MojoLake same
Literally the same thing happens on “Góra Żar” in southern Poland, near my hometown.
1:33 "This looks like the top of the hill right? And this looks like the bottom."
Me: No it doesn't. Anyone can literally tell you that it doesn't.
Lmao that's what I thought too I was like wtf do you mean it looks like the top
1:33 "This looks like the top of the hill ,right?
- No?
- And this looks like the bottom of the hill, right?
- Absolutely nope, no, you drunk?
- WRONG.
- Told you so..."
I’ve actually been there some 30 years ago and it’s something that you have to experience to fully appreciate it. Regards, Bob M. South Wales. UK
There is thousands of these roads around the world.
One in my hometown.
One in my bed as well. I sleep on the right side of my queen sized bed but end up waking up on my left.
I've been to this road a few times
Same as “magnetic hill” in New Brunswick, Canada.
There’s a road not far from me in NJ that has a hill we call gravity hill. If you come to a stop on it and put your car in neutral and let go of the brake, your car will start coasting backwards uphill. Obviously it’s an illusion it’s just the way the hill is sloped compared to the road, but it 100% looks and feels like gravity is pushing you uphill backwards
If you're ever feeling DOWN, just remember to visit this mountain. It will cheer you UP!
Its an optical illusion. Why is this even a video
If you phrase the simplest, most obvious things correctly, you can convince people that this is amazing
I have been to a place in rep of Ireland and I experienced it
The whole presentation was dubious, and rather than the landscape playing tricks it appears that the presenters are playing tricks, first they get a load of complicated technology, then they get a orwellian to talk about "conspiracy theories" (God musta conspired with Himself when he made the dude and set the law of gravity), then they get a psychologist
- All they had to do was get a water level commony found at a local builder's merchant or 99p shop and put it on the road. or if unconvinced and needing a bit more drama, one vertical stick and a protracter to measure the angle (-90* / +90*) ?or even more dramatic - two upright sticks of the same size and a long horizontal stick with a water level between the two, and see which stick is higher than the horizontal stick and use a bit of pythagoras theorem to clarify the angle.people were just left feeling inadequate and wondering at the complicated nature of the tests and hypothesis and some were even left to speculate since the displayed "horizon" wasn't level
I live like 10 miles away from there, its the road mate trust me
+abz2000123 right? all they need is a level...ahahha....
+Cuhz is it weird i understood that? Hahah lols i agree
+abz2000123 These idiots were clearly desperate for content.
abz2000123 thing is, I've done this cos I live nearby and it works and it's creapy
There’s a road like this in Essex. It’s called hangman’s hill
Thank you. I bicycle on a trail where a quarter mile segment of that trail seems to have the same effect as this road. I always thought it might be a wind current, but then even on a calm day I'm peddling "downhill." Case solved.
This road is the A719 near Dunure Mains, Ayrshire, Scotland, close to the coast. The section that appears to defy gravity is known as Electric Brae, for obvious reasons. I would occasionally use that road when going out for a pleasant drive and every single time I used it there would be cars that would stop and then the driver would release the handbrake and be amazed that car seemed to be rolling uphill. There would also be people with spirit levels, but that is a waste of time because it is not a constant slope from top to bottom, some parts are in fact dead level, it’s just the overall effect that is so convincing. It’s no wonder it’s a bit of a tourist attraction, I have taken family members there myself when they have come up from London for a holiday. It’s a fun thing to do and I do understand why people stop on the road, it’s no big deal, the road has a couple of places where you can stop and not be a nuisance or danger to other road users, providing they are not driving too fast down a country lane.
No one:
RUclips recommendations after 5 years: "Here's something that may not interest you but we know you will click on it anyway."
Right??
You did it, you broke down youtube recommendations to it's bare essentials!
It’s because they didn’t make the road in the way of the terrain
Tesla regenerative braking: am I a joke to you
Same thing in New Brunswick near Moncton. I have been there twice and it is an optical illusion. a little stream beside the road and the water goes uphill until you turn around then the hill is back to normal. They call it the magnetic hill.
We’ve got the same thing happening here in Dundalk Ireland, there’s no trick of the eye playing a part, your car will be pulled up the hill, it’s a magnetic pull, iff u throw a beer top out you will see it being pulled along too.
james reilly I can’t tell if you are joking or not
Finally that psychology degree came in handy
Oh man, if only we had a small, inexpensive object available in any hardware store to see what inclination the road has.
Witchcraft!
Philippines has this kind of road also.
where tho?
There is one in Sweden aswell
70NA5 okay. That's amazing. Not all places have this kind of phenomenon
Envinite omg hahaha
Rudst haha
There’s a house like this in Santa Cruz. It’s a huge tourist attraction. It is explained at the end of the video. It’s just the background makes it seem opposite of what it truly is.
We have one of these roads near to where I live in south Ireland. Little stream beside looks like it runs uphill and cars go “uphill” too. Always fun with friends to freak them out 😉
There is a similar place in New Brunswick, Canada as well called "Magnetic hill."
Anonymous Hurts he says he's in Canada you dumbfuck
"Magnetic" or "Witches"... magnetic deposits sound way more believable than witchcraft at least.
Anonymous Hurts can you not read he said Canada you must be from a third world country
We have the same in Australia and it's called Magnetic Hill also lol
Stronger optical illusion than this one though.
Here in Brazil there are two and they're both called Peanut Hill, just dont know why, lol
it doesnt look downhill it looks normal uphill. am i missing something?
2:09
When the special Ed kid asks you to play with him.
STOP IM DYING😂😂😂😊😂
Lolololololol xD 🤣🤣
And then you realise you are stupider than the special ed kid
Jeez bruh. WHY??!!!! 😂😂😂
4 people above me are the biggest youtube comment section normies out there.
Same thing near Moncton New Brunswick. Canada. It's called Magnetic Hill. We used to go there regularly as kids. I've always wondered. Now I know. Similar situation nearby there as well, The Reversing Falls. The tide in the Bay of Fundy comes in so fast and is so high, about 60 feet, that the St. John River flows backwards.

Bridget Whitaker original
Hey, I’ve seen this before! It’s a classic!
Sidemen reacts gang letsgo
I wonder when the developers are going to fix the glitch.
In A Maze'N Things in Phillip Island, VIC, Australia, they have a room like this. The room is on a steep angle, and then there's things in the room on a less steep angle. So you have water appearing to flow upwards, for example.
This is the same phenomenon i came across,there is a road in kenya which has become an attraction..up is down and down is up.
Who’s here because of the sidemen
Me lol
Guy: “These optical illusions fool us because we rely too much on our eyes, and dont listen to our other senses”
Psychologist: *figures it out with his eyes*
2:08 what the last Pringle sees
We have the same thing in South Australia. Its an illusion of a road going up or down because of the background isn't flat or even. But the town and council, promote it with signage.
Although the road appears to be running uphill, a suitably free-running vehicle will slowly move off from a standstill. It was widely believed that vehicles were being propelled uphill by a mysterious magnetic force, but the road's apparently uphill slope is an optical illusion.[1] This runs the quarter mile from the bend overlooking Croy railway viaduct in the west (286 feet Above Ordnance Datum) to the wooded Craigencroy Glen (303 feet A.O.D.) to the east. Whilst there is this slope of 1 in 86 upwards from the bend to the Glen, the configuration of the land on either side of the road provides an optical illusion making it look as if the slope is going the other way. Therefore, a stationary car on the road with the brakes off will appear to move slowly uphill.
There are hundreds of gravity hills around the world. The explanation often given for the phenomenon is that of a visual illusion, similar to the well-known Ames room in which balls can appear to roll against gravity.
There you have iz
2:57 i can smell the illusion
anybody here from the sidemen vid
1:50 he sounds like the guy who said "But steel is heavier than feathers"
C L 1 F F you never heard of a Scottish accent before??
C L 1 F F You mean Limmy?? He’s a comedian and if so i sound like that too and i’m not a guy lmao
@@capriceog9996 yeah but there both a kilogram
There is a place in Ireland where cars roll up hill! it's near Sligo in the mountains, its know as the magic road! Oddly the government has not put up any signs for this,so you have to ask for directions, it's on the bundoran side of sligo town,about 15min out from sligo on the rhs
When it showed the landscape and the narrator suggested which end of the road was higher it just looked level to me. 🤷🏻♂️
