The bet is I take to a place, park car in neutral, and your car will go back. No trick. Park car on perfectly flat ground. I repeat this is not a trick. No hidden rope, string or whatever. Happens naturally. Local FL knowledge a must. Really freaky.

Hmm. Great idea. Go to bar, have drinks, get in car, turn on car, wait patiently for cops to bust you.

Is that because Florida is below sea level?

Please explain sir.

I will test your theory/trick later today.

HERE IS A BAR TRICK/BET YOU CAN WIN EASILY....


bet someone that you can make a cue ball roll under a pool stick that is laying on the pool table from one side pocket to the other side pocket. tell them that you will NOT hit the stick.

upon initial inspection it does not appear possible. after they accept the bet, pick up the cue ball and roll it on the floor under the pool table (and stick!).


works like a charm...

Take three pool balls, including the 8. Place two of them side-by-side, touching, against one of the short rails. Place the 8-ball on top of them, in the centre. Make a bet with someone that you can shoot the cue-ball downtable and hit the 8-ball first.

Easy enough. After you hit the cue ball, just pound your fist on the table, causing the two bottom balls to shift and the 8-ball to drop straight down. The cue-ball will then contact the 8-ball.

Works every time.

If you make that car bet thing and win, I suggest you use your winnings to get your car fixed!:party:

I've had that optical illusion occur to me while driving in the mountains of Wyoming or Utah. I just knew I was traveling downmountain but if I let off the accelerator the car would severely slow down AND while I was wondering about that I looked out the window to a stream running along the road and nearly lost control of the car when I realized that the stream was flowing in the direction that I thought was UP the mountainside. THAT WAS COOL and I'll never forget it. So, I know what you guys are talking about. It is freaky and worth experiencing. tulsa

Geologists determined there is some formation underneath with magnetic properties. Nothing to do with optical illusion. You could really f with someones mind if you took them there and they didnt no what it was about. All sorts of shenanigans. Great Punk.
