      a1z4 The amount of accidents that occur on this road is crazy because of idiots (including locals unfortunately) stopping to try this. Cars coming around the corner at the top have no way of seeing stationary vehicles and either plough right into them or swerve to avoid them... Sometimes people get lucky.

      Surly you have tried it once before right ? anyway since you know the road and the fact you can find someone in the middle of the street you would be cautious while driving on that particular spot, my point is to leave people alone and who ever want to see it is not your business and just be kind to others and be happy that you are healthy and living .

      @DirtPoorWargamer 8 лет назад +88

      +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.

    • @13sci
      @13sci 8 лет назад +103

      +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!

    • @DirtPoorWargamer
      @DirtPoorWargamer 8 лет назад +13

      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.

      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.

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

    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

      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.

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

    - 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

    @keithmayes4358 5 лет назад

    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.

    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

    When it showed the landscape and the narrator suggested which end of the road was higher it just looked level to me. 🤷🏻‍♂️
