mystery spot


Here is a question for you: Where can you go to have your brain melted by black holes and inter-dimensional space rays for $5 per person?

That's right, it's "the mystery spot" in Santa Cruz, CA. If you do not go there at some point in your life (read RIGHT NOW) then your face will implode from the same freaky gravity bending weirdness that we saw here.

Example 1: This board is exactly level. The guide proved it with a level to us. As you can see, Autumn is taller.


Now, when they switch positions, you'll notice that Abby is suddenly taller-and terribly amused because of it. What just happened? I don't know, but hang on, there's more.

Item #2: This video shows Donavan giving the tour guide a battery that he loves to carry around. He did that because she wanted to show us with an untampered with object how on a perfectly level board, (she showed us with a level again) that things placed on it will roll toward the end. That's because the mystery spot pulls things (like our money) towards its center with an insatiable power.





Thing #3: This is actually not anything unusual. I can do this pretty much anywhere. You'll actually probably see me on any given afternoon standing like this on a street corner with my back parallel to the ground like a scene from the Matrix. I'm not looking for people to give me money or anything, it's just who I am.
