Mystery Spot

12 years ago I visited ' the mystery spot'  in Santa Cruz, California.   Driving through the dense redwood forests was an experience by itself. What  I experienced and what many others  continue to experience in  the Mystery Spot  was and is an unexplainable  phenomenon.
The guide giving you the tour would say that in the small circular  area of 150 ft (diameter) the conventional laws of physics and gravity are defied.  They say it is a gravitational anomaly.
Inside the small room in The Mystery Spot it is impossible to walk straight. Meaning, you will be tilted at an angle.

 They demonstrated some of this  phenomenon by  lining  up 5 to 6 people  next to each other with the shortest and the tallest  on either ends of the line; when the 6 ft man on the left  switched sides with the 5ft woman on the right,  he lost a foot of his height.  How do you explain that?  I was simply in awe.

At some spots short people appeared taller than their tall friends.

In a normal world what happens  to  a ball that  is rolled on  a slope ?  The ball rolls down.
But at the mystery spot the ball rolls UP.

Mystery spot is real  although the  mystery is still mysterious.
