The Land Where Eggs Never Tilt When Perched on Nails ( Video)

Something unique about Ecuador! Want to know it? Then stream along. First let’s get to know where Ecuador is. The country is located in the western corner at the top of the South American continent.

Ecuador is named after the Equator, an imaginary line that demarcates and separates the earth into two: northern hemisphere and the southern hemisphere, the earth is divided into two. That line equally splits Ecuador in two.

During Equinox, something takes place in Ecuador. Equinox is the time or date (twice each year) at which the sun crosses the celestial equator, when day and night are of approximately equal length (about 22 September and 20 March), termed solar equinox.

That means the sun appears directly above the equator, rather than north or south of the equator. Another term for Equinox is equinoctial point.

That strange thing is the feature of eggs. Eggs don’t fall down even when left on any sloped area at the imaginary line that divides the earth.

Balancing when eggs fall in Ecuador during spring

The Equator line has been a place for experiments with the eggs. Redline which demarcates the separation of the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, shows the strange reaction of balancing. While in other parts of the planets the eggs rolls if not placed on trays, balancing eggs is impossible, the equinoctial point is the only point that can balance even standing at the top of the nail top.

Why is this possible? It is because it is the period when the celestial bodies do not have any influence on material. Celestial bodies are considered to be responsible for movement and balance. The factors do not allow stability which leads to falling down.

An egg is one of the items that are highly influenced by electromagnetic and gravitational forces. Egg balancing is almost a harder task due to the attraction of the celestial bodies.

But the period of the Vernal Equinox makes a massive change in the behavior of the celestial bodies. It is because the sun travels from the southern to the northern hemisphere

At the end of the Vernal Equinox, the gravity is entirely balanced with the reduced magnetic effects on earth. The celestial bodies also do not force attraction that could cause the eggs to fall. Just on the tip of a nail head, the eggs are balanced.

Quite unique, you will agree, quite worth seeing!
