The torrential water like an eruption from the trunk to the bottom attracts many curious visitors. According to local people, this strange phenomenon has happened in the last few decades.

Radio Free Europe recently shared a video of a unique natural phenomenon occurring in a village called Dinoša, located in the southeast of Montenegro. This is a small country on the Adriatic coast.

The images in the video show that, at an ancient tree, the water flowed like a nozzle from a trunk. This strange phenomenon particularly attracts curious tourists.

The torrential water flows from the trunk even though it doesn't rain.

According to a local resident, this phenomenon has occurred in the past 20-25 years, or even longer. People also estimate that this old tree is 100 to 150 years old.

The phenomenon of torrential water flowing out of the trunk is explained quite simply. Heavy rain caused underground water courses to flood, creating water pressure to push up the stem thanks to cracks and holes that caused the water to flow. Thus, after every heavy rain, the old mulberry tree in the grass turned into a nozzle.

Water sprayed from the well mouth in Estonia's Tuhala village.

Although there is only one fountain in Montenegro, it is not the only phenomenon of water erupting from the ground after the rain. The village of Tuhala in Estonia also has a sprinkler well after heavy rains.

People call it the Witch's Well.

It is known that wells are located right on the underground river. After each rain, water flows into the river. Water pressure increased to the point of erupting from the well. Sometimes the water spray is half a meter high. The phenomenon usually takes several days, depending on the amount of rain water. During the eruption days, it is estimated that about 100 liters of water sprayed on the ground every second.

According to the legend of the local people, they often tell visitors the story of the witches of Tuhala. Here, the witches gather at the underground sauna and fight with eucalyptus branches that spray water onto the surface. People also call it the Witch's well.
