its acctually goin back down

To put it in layman's terms: the car is actually rolling downhill but because of the scenery surrounding the road, it looks like the car's going upwards. It's a known phenomenon & there are a few places around the world like this.

Pretty cool.

@sniboboof well a car can't roll uphill it's impossible (apart from in a very strong wind). A ball will do exactly the same thing if the slope is sufficient (it might just stay in one place). I think some hills might have something like the trees growing at an angle for which you can tilt the camera.

It's not the only place on earth where this happens, you can do it in Scotland too. Look up Electric Brae.

Maybe the car has an auto transmission, its in reverse, and the reverse lights don't work.

There is at least one place in Oxfordshire with the same illusion, near the village of Middle Barton.
