But how many people actually know the story behind the upside-down building? WonderWorks originally began as a top-secret research laboratory on a remote island in the Bermuda Triangle. Legend has it that the world’s greatest scientists, led by Professor Wonder, were tasked with creating a man-made tornado and harnessing its power. During the experiment, something went awry, and the power of the tornado was released inside the laboratory. This created a swirling vortex strong enough to rip the lab from its foundation. It was carried thousands of miles away and landed up-side down. So, next time you’re on I-Drive, be sure to stop and snap a picture at the beloved upside-down attraction – WonderWorks.
