reminds me of the reversing falls in New Brunswick. They go upwards.

My first guess would be it's done like those 3-D sidewalk chalk drawings. It's not really going up, but the camera angle and the way it's built makes it look like it is.

yeah that would mean the water is zigzagging across the floor, and the vertical posts and the camera are aligned to make it seem like they are rising.....that's all "easy"....but then how the fuck does the water then flow right back into the loop again if its moving away from the point it originated at?????

Awesome :lol:

Ok so based on the online explanation of how this illusion works... It cant "work", so my best guess is there is some video trickery going on here using graphics and editing? Other than that I got nothing!

Do they have jet-boat rides there?

I think I've been there before, but my mind is kinda... hazy... about it.
