Chalcis


What are the two physicists of the picture observing?
"Crazy water" of Chalcis. It changes direction of flow every 6 hours.

Science says that this is due to the gravitational attraction of the moon.

Unfortunately, I couldn't find any cool legends associated with this phenomenon, other than that Aristotelis killed himself because he could not explain it. Which is sadly not true.
