13. The Kraken Hole

Though the term "The Kraken Hole" may seem like something from a horror film, it's not a natural occurrence; it's all man-made. Designed to control water flow and stop flooding, this man-made spillway is on the property of a Californian reservoir. Though it serves a useful function, the sight of this enormous, spinning vortex can nonetheless make one shudder

Have you ever wondered how something so functional could look so intimidating? Water spirals down the spillway into what appears to be an endless abyss, producing a captivating but unsettling impression. Both residents and tourists frequently call it interesting and disturbing. Though not a danger, its size and strength remind us of the power of nature even when controlled by human engineering. Should you ever find yourself in California, would you be brave enough to examine more closely this engineering wonder that also serves as a visual treat?
