Backward flowing waterfalls!! Who says water can't go uphill.

Then I have, by personal observation, seen that they are wrong

Waterfalls being blown upwards are quite spectacular but a sudden change in the wind can result in personal proof that what goes up eventually comes down. Realising the wind was no longer blowing the water up but rather that it was swinging it towards you like a scythe provided a few "interesting moments" to be honest!

The upside of having a waterfall dumped on you is that it provides a perfect excuse to retire to a pub with a roaring log fire and a nice selection of single malts. Not that I need much of an excuse

Pumps send water uphill, don't they ?
