There is also something in texas, I forget where but there are train tracks and supposedly you can put baby powder on your rear bumper, and put your car in neutral on train tracks that go up hill and your car will go up by itself. then you can see handprints on your bumper.....go figure

There's a place like that about a mile from here. It's on a steep hill, and the road that cuts off of it is less steep, but appears to be level, or going upward. Put your car in neutral and it will "roll backwards up the hill." It's actually still downhill, just way less of a grade, so it's an illusion that makes it look like it goes up. They say if you let go of the wheel, you'll go completely straight for 25 feet, then your car will cut hard right and go off the road. Tried it... wound up with the passenger side rear tire off the road... Slammed that thing in drive, slung some mud, and got out of there in a hurry. Haha

Explanation of a 'magnetic hill' in Burlington

Short version:

Is the Hill really magnetic?, paranormal? No. It is an optical illusion. There are numerous locations around the world where objects apparently roll uphill. Usually it is a stretch of road in a hilly area (as is the case in Burlington) where the horizon is obscured. Objects such as trees which normally provide visual clues to the true vertical, may be leaning slightly. This creates an optical illusion ...

Then goes on to a bunch of hippie bullshit about ghosts and spirits, so YMMV.

Uhh...if that is the case, the finger prints are undoubtedly yours. I'm sorry, but even if ghosts did exist, they'd be spiritual, not physical.
 
Yeah, we had a "gravity hill" but it's just an optical illusion. Much cooler to experience at night, much easier to spot the illusion during the day.

The handprint thing is bullshit.
