It was so windy in England yesterday that this waterfall reversed direction

England bore the brunt of the tail end of Hurricane Gonzalo yesterday and things got pretty windy, it seems.

This video of a 80ft waterfall in Derbyshire - known as the Kinder Downfall - shows just how blustery it got - the wind basically stopped the waterfall, blowing the water back up the way it came.

In the video description, Rod Kirkpatrick said that the River Kinder was "stopped in its tracks as it is blown back up onto Kinder Scout Plateau at the point where it would normally cascade 80ft down Kinder Downfall".

Epic.
