Do you know the corridor that looks like a street where all the house are tilted? They took it down somewhere in 2004. Why did they take it down? That was the best part of the Science Center!

Oops, I posted it in the wrong place. Could you move it to General Discussion, Thanks!

Have you been to the Pacific Science Center in Seattle? The Illusion Ramp was there where you don't know if the ramp is going up or down.

I remember at the Ripley's Believe it or Not museum in Niagra there was this corridor that had a simple catwalk going from one end to the other that you would walk along and the room was a spinning cylinder. It was so trippy I felt like I was going to fall off the catwalk while I walked across.

I know exactly what you are talking about. I did that too. It's amazing how your senses can be set off balance and completely mess you up.

Now I remember that place! I went there. It was great. I could barely walk through the damn hallway. I kept thinking I was going to fall over.

I remember this Illusion Ramp that used to be at the Pacific Science Center in Seattle, Washington. Because I went to the Pacific Science Center when I was in 7th grade. It freaked me out a little bit, but it was pretty cool.
