Which place on earth has some gravity effect which makes you stand tilted(at angle to vertical line)?

Question

i think this place is some where in north america. as a results of some gravity effect, you can not stand vertical. As a result you stand at an angle. people visit that place to experience this effect.

Answer 1

Yes, the place is the Oregon Vortex. However, the so-called "tilted gravity" effect is simply a clever optical illusion (gravity acts in the same direction everywhere on the planet). You can read about it here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oregon_vortex

Put simply, the buildings at the Oregon Vortex are all tilted slightly to one side. Your brain doesn't see it as the building being tilted, but instead assumes that the building's walls are vertical and floors horizontal (because every other building you've seen is that way). So instead, your brain interprets what your eyes see as indicating that you are tilted. Similar effects occur in other places. For example, in Wind River Canyon, Wyoming, the Wind River flows through a canyon where the sedimentary strata are tilted slightly upstream. Your brain doesn't perceive the tilt, so it makes it look as if the river is flowing uphill.

Answer 2

In Scotland there is the "Electric Brae" at Croy in Ayrshire, where from a particular viewpoint there is an optical illusion about the true horizontal. If you switch off your car engine, you can believe that the car is rolling uphill on the road ("brae" is the Scottish word for hill). But it is just a trick of the eyes on the mind, like the Oregon Vortex or the Santa Cruz Mystery Spot.

But the tilted gravity around the mountain Schiehallion is real! Only fine instruments can detect it, but the mountain is so big and neatly shaped, and the surrounding land so flat, that in 1774 the scientist Nevile Maskelyne measured the tilt of the vertical around it to arrive at the first estimate of the mass of the Earth.

Answer 3

The Mystery Spot in the Santa Cruz Mountains. It's amazing. There are all sorts of weird effects.

Answer 4

There is the Mystery Spot in Santa Cruz, California. Some weird magnetic meteorite underground causes it, I think. Balls tend to roll uphill, things like that.

Answer 5

its in oregon, look it up
