Pictures and Videos

Assalamualaikum everyone. Let see and watch related pictures in this so-called gallery for more adventure in this blog before we narrow down on research studies conducted by the psychologist as mentioned before. The entrance would be like this, (a wider view)



Next, how the man is seen to be standing at possible angle.


And these ...







Basically, there are lots of physics principles were related to the absurd things occurred in Mystery Spot included the experiment made by the phsychology professor from University College Santa Cruz, Bruce Bridgeman. According to Bridgeman, Mystery Spot is the best place to explain how optical illusion affect what you see and how it works due to the specific strange locus. It is further explained that people will look at the deviation occurred due to the extra sensory ability which called proprioception that unconsciously develops and "screen" a wrong information to brain. Even the hanging heavy load from the ceiling could deviate to suspended angle so, human being also affected!

Let's watch the video on how the experiment is conducted.




and feel free to watch this one too :D




That's all in this entry. Till we meet again. Assalamualaikum. Asta la vista.

Mystery & Perceptions

Assalamualaikum and Hi. Mystery Spot has receieved lots of ideas on how the weird event happened as in previous post. So according to the experiments conducted by some the researchers who passionate with the deviation of nature occurred, they found out theories on Mystery Spot.




According to William (cited in Shaw),time moves at slower rate when someone enters the mystery spot. It is at least "3 minutes 40 seconds" late in a day and this has led to changes towards all metrics such as the volume, mass, frequency, gravity, time and energy while walking through the spot. This is supported by the response from a website saying;

 " I've been to the Oregon vortex. I remember I went there with my friend who is a good 6 inches shorter than me. We stood at this spot marked by a horizontal board lying on the ground, and it looked like it was perfectly parallel to flat ground. When I stood at one end, I looked much taller than I should have been relative to her, and then when we switched spots, we looked to be the same height. It makes sense if the board wasn't actually on flat ground." 

All we can interpret here is the real metrics have been departed from their established standard and caused confusion for people who walk in to that locus. "William also determined the "shape" of the anomaly based on actual observations. He shows in the video all his equipment and actual data collected." However the result could not be analysed here unless we pay for the video. No problem! Let us review another experiment made by the other researchers. According to a Americana Through the Years, people explained that Mystery Spot was an alien marks that once upon a time happened in that particular place which finally caused miserable and result to adverse effect and vomitting. On the other hand, based on Terriann Van Gosliga (2012), Mystery Spot in Santa Cruz is totally a crowded space for tourist to observe and enjoy the strange of the anomalies. 

"His sets the stage for some crazy perception changes. As you hike the up the seemingly innocent incline, you notice that climb feels harder and more strenuous then it should. You are then led to an obviously skewed cabin. Though you know the cabin is built at an angle, that doesn’t detract from the things you see. All logic in regards to gravity and how things ‘should’ act is gone." It explained how the place gives abnormal effect to the visitors and it is also said that the flora found in that place grew in peculiar way.


The spot was more surreal when people could notice that redwoods grew awkwardly which only some of the branches that away from the Sun would grow while one of eucalyptus grew skewly spiral. She also added people would stand at odd angles! Find out more experiment in next entries! :D
Asta la Vista . Assalamualaikum.

What is Mystery Spot?

Assalamualaikum and Hi. So dear readers, let us take a look what is the significant things behind the title of The Enigmatic Locus of Santa Cruz California in United States of America. It is where the deviation of gravity happen in that area and leads to weird effects on every single stuff placed around the spot which is said to be ".. a circular area of effect around 150 feet or 46 meters in diameter". Before that, let us look it in general scope. There a lots of places in the USA which experience mysterious and unexplainable effects for example "...Balls roll uphill, brooms stand on end at odd angles, people's heights seem to change as they walk about.." The mysterious place is not only at Santa Cruz California.







It is also in Michigan, the Saint Ignace Mystery Spot


Next, it is also the Oregon Vortex Mystery Spot


Since the gravity is not the same or "uniform" in every places in this world, thus certain areas will be experiencing unidentified and unresolved mystery for ages.





To discover the mystery, there were two consistent and committed 19th Century professor from University of California, Berkeley have been conducted a series of research to reveal the secret on the anomalies on gravity towards Mystery Spot in Santa Cruz California. They are William Prinzmetal and Arthur Shimamura respectively.

So how actually Mystery Spot in California was found? It was how Mr Prather, the original owner would like to purchase a specific area of land to build a summer house or mountain cabin but the man refuse to sell the requested land unless he purchased "a strip across the entire south end of his property, including this hillside." After negotiation and they finally bought the whole land as asked by the man and found something has gone beyond the nature. 

 "..we noted the compass to vary a small amount on the transit and spoke to him about it at that time. He said we might get that variation along a barbed wire fence or some mineral in the ground and let it pass at that. On thinking it over later, there was no barbed wire fence near where we were at the time, and as far as we knew, no excessive mineral in this ground; so we took our own small hand compass and went up over the north line to try and check on it. The variation there was not great enough that we could tell anything about it with the point of the hill and through the brush. On returning, we came down the little canyon or draw above here. In doing so we felt very light headed or top heavy, felt like something trying to force us right off the hill. We sat down for a while to try and overcome that feeling. While sitting there we happened to look at the compass again. There, the compass had varied enough that we needed nothing to compare it with to tell that it was not correct. We began to check from that, and we found the more we checked the more we found, until we found we had this spot of ground here. About one hundred fifty feet in diameter, that so far, we have not found any instrument absolutely correct over. A portable radio will play any place over it, but with very little variation, being the nearest correct that we have found". 

 It is a similar case to the other mysterious spot where the person who went to the place and detected the extraordinary forces to the objects they brought during the trip and they experienced strange and stunning gravity effects. Researchers have been conducting various of experiments to figure out what is happening at the diameter, but until now, it is remained a puzzle! After it was discovered in 1939 by surveyors group, it was opened to public in 1940 and has become a tourist attraction place all over the world to experience the anomalies. Since we have reviewed on its history, let's meet up again in next entries to get more information on how both researchers from Berkeley conducted their experiments and finalized theories on this mystery spot. It has been multiples of perceptions by people on how the spot exist but none of the research could prove the thing! Mystery Spot has been said to have cones of metal that brought and buried secretly in ground to be used as guidance systems for their spacecraft. Some people also come out with the idea of spacecraft has buried deep by itself. Not to neglect the theories on "carbon dioxide permeating from the earth, a hole in the ozone layer, a magma vortex, the highest dielectric biocosmic radiation known anywhere in the world, and radiesthesia. That's all for this entry. See you again for lots more of discoveries on Mystery Spot ! Asta la vista . Assalamualaikum

DNMC : Introduction

Assalamualaikum Hello and Hi everybody. First and foremost I would like to introduce myself. I am Nurul Ashikin binti Mohd Nohan or also known among friends and lecturers through my Facebook name - Ashikin Nohan.


I am currently finishing my final year in Diploma in English Communication, in one of the most well-known MARA college -Kolej Profesional MARA Indera Mahkota, which I will be graduating soon in the end of this year. Last Semester in 4th Semester, I have been writing for Critical Literacy subject and it was a tough subject, indeed! We will be meeting again in another subject which is called Digital and Media Communication with code ITE 3563. This subject explains on how we utilising the IT devices and all related things to daily life especially for academic purposes where it touches on E-learning, the methods of learning through different sensory ability i.e kinesthetic, auditory, and visual. 

Further in this subject, the students are required to have own blog to post informations on certain registered topic. So the topic is only to cover on certain things which are; Mysterious events for instance - Missing off MH 370, Mystery of Titanic, or perhaps the 11th September incident in 2011. It is also could possibly be Myterious Places which could narrow down on Bermuda Triangle, Stonehenge etc. Next, the Weird Law on particular norms in different areas in countries across the globe is also acceptable. Therefore, despite of all stated and suggested topics, I have found something amazing, appealing and worth to be read especially those who love travelling! In that case,I have chosen the Mystery Spot. Have you ever heard about Mystery Spot?


Mystery Spot Santa Cruz California USA


So, the main objectives the Mystery Spot is chosen among all mentioned topic is to: 

-Firstly, figure out what is Mystery Spot.
-Next, how the Mystery goes wild and viral across the nation where people could possibly standing at possible angles.
-To make it comprehensive, I would show the pictures and video on how people experience the anomaly during their visit to Mystery Spot. 

  In addition, we would find how Mystery Spot has been a place under spotlight where everyone loves to visit Mystery Spot Therefore, I could sum up in the end of the post where people could gain lots of knowledge on Mystery Spot. The pictures above are just to give hints to you my dearest readers on what I am going to explain in details. But wait, it is going to be in the next post. Not to forget, million thanks to Miss Norul Ashikin Abu Kasim and Madam Hawinda for this opportunity to explore more on blog. It is a fun activity for the semester to indulge and sink into blog-making until we get exposed to enormous creative skills. So, see you in next entries! 

 Asta la vista! Assalamualaikum.
