I was too shown a ball rolling up hill (yes!) and i was able to stand on the wall and walk around at strange angle. And then on the border of the mystery spot people who are inside the spot become a much shorter than people outside the mystery spot - due to changes in the gravity / light field.
If you read the debunking report by Berkley unviersity it says that its just all a visual illusion due to that fact that the house is tilted - but there is more in their study that was not revealed - the university physics department blocked off the background in a study which includes the fence, the house everything and made it into a white cube. With a level surface they came to the conclusion that there IS an optical illusion there - but it's not the background, nor the tilted house (infact the cabin was built like a fun house to enhance the perception of the exisiting slant). If you've ever looked at a straw in a cup of water, you notice it looks like it's bent. The physics department said that light is being bent, but they have no idea why.
You can do things on this slope of land that you wouldn't be able to do on the exact same degree incline in your backyard. The tour guide talked about how birds make you turns right out of the mystery spot. Dogs hate it in there, deer stop right at the boundary line and turn around. He also talked about how when one person was trying to find the place he got lost, his GPS said he was 300 miles away when he was about 2 miles away and also the airspace above the spot is apparently well know to the military as a 'radar blackspot'.
There are many ufo theories explaing the mystery spot - Some speculate that cones of metal were secretly brought here and buried in our earth as guidance systems for their spacecraft. Some think that it is in fact the spacecraft itself burried deep within the ground. Other theories include carbon dioxide permeating from the earth, a hole in the ozone layer, a magma vortex, the highest dielectric biocosmic radiation known anywhere in the world, and radiesthesia. Whatever the cause is, it remains a mystery. Rate this posting:

Weird U.S. is a great show. I wish the History Channel would show it more often. I'd like to see an episode of mythbusters about that location. Too bad I didn't know about that place when my family took a road trip to California. :(
