• Explanation of the phenomenon

The phenomenon of zero gravity, also known as magnetic hill, exists in many countries around the world, including Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Sweden, Portugal, Poland, Germany, Romania, the United States, and China.

Many researchers have sought to understand and analyze this phenomenon scientifically, and opinions differed about it. Some believe that it is a natural phenomenon subject to the laws of physics, while others see it as just an optical illusion, in which the surrounding terrain plays a major role in creating it.

The reason behind this phenomenon is often attributed to the nature of the magnetic hill and the surrounding geography, as it creates an optical illusion that makes the viewer think that objects are moving up the road, ignoring the effect of gravity.
