Impossible?

Water can go uphill! The reversing falls at St John, New Brunswick at the mouth of the St John river. Due to the rise & fall of the tide in the Bay of Fundy (one of the largest ranges in the world) at some stage in each tide the sea is higher than the river so the water rushes upstream & conversely at the ebb tide the sea is lower than the river so the water rushes downstream. An impressive sight. A similar situation to that at the Falls of Lora at Connel Ferry at Loch Etive.
