Are there places on the planet where gravity doesn't work?

 Planet Earth operates according to the laws of gravity discovered by Sir Isaac Newton. But there are gravitational anomalies in some places where this law doesn't apply. Let's see them now!

1. The "upside down" waterfall in England

This waterfall is located not far from Hayfield and has water rising skyward, making it look more like a fountain. The secret of the inverted waterfall is the wind: it's so strong there that the falling water is caught by the wind and pushed upward. The waterfall typically reaches a height of 78 feet. Where does this incredibly strong wind come from? 🤔

2. The road at the foot of Mount Aragats in Armenia

On the border between Turkey and Armenia, there's a mountain that drives people crazy. Thousands of travelers come to this mountain every year to witness the astonishing anti-gravity phenomenon. If you turn off your car's engine at the foot of the mountain, it will ascend on its own . There's also a river nearby that

rises . Many who have been here say it's easier to go up than down.

3. Hoover Dam in Nevada, United States

When you climb this 726.4-foot-tall dam, you can do a simple experiment. Try pouring some water from a bottle. The liquid won't flow down as usual, but will float up! The same thing happens if you try to throw a light object from the same height—it will float due to the strong airflow.

4. The golden boulder in Myanmar

This rock is covered in gold and looks like it will fall at any moment. But in reality, it has remained in the same place for 2,500 years! The boulder stands 49 feet high, along with the pagoda built above it. According to legend, the boulder is held in place by Buddha's hair, which is inside it. The boulder is not fixed, and anyone could move it, but nature has not yet toppled it. It is said that only a woman can move the boulder. For this reason, women are not allowed to touch it.
