The Kinder Downfall, a waterfall located in Derbyshire, England, started flowing upward as intense winds from ex-Hurricane Gonzalo swept through.

The video above, captured by Rod Kirkpatrick on October 21, shows the waterfall flowing upwards as intense winds pound on the stream, making it impossible for the water to continue on course to its destination 98 feet below. Watching the waterfall is entrancing, as it almost looks like a magic trick or some grand entertaining illusion.
