In the Peak District of England there is a waterfall where the water doesn't actually fall.
Officially known as the Derbyshire waterfall, it's also called Kinder Downfall. The water here usually cascades down about 80 feet from this fall. But a natural phenomenon occurs when high winds hit the area and updrafts force the water to blow back upstream - resulting in a sort of reverse waterfall.
The winds seen in this video are believed to be remnants of the recent Hurricane Gonzalo. Whatever their origin, these wind gusts reached 50 mph creating a mist that can reportedly be seen several miles away.
This video, posted by Rod Kirkpatrick, an English nature photographer, reminds us that no matter how much CrossFit we do, nature will always be stronger.

Scene 4: actor #4 arrives in a strange religious costume and speaks
"Ignorant Humanity is a dangerous Virus and will soon be corrected by Nature so that this widespread disease called "humanity" will be cleansed from the planet."
Scene 5: actor #5 arrives in a strange religious costume and speaks
- "Let me ask you: when we, the cleansed from Earth, and verily dead, arrive to the Otherworld, as wretched spirits and the veil removed from our ignorant eyes we see the destruction of Earth we caused and millions upon millions of people killed we ignored, how loud do you think the wailing chorus of the Dead Masses will be?"
And your answers?:
- "Bollocks!!"
- "Oh, just give me another chance to be born again as a human and I will fix it!"
- "Go to Hell!" .. oh wait .. we are already there..
