Cliffs of Moher, Ireland
The west coast of Ireland is stunningly beautiful, and the Cliffs of Moher in County Clare do not disappoint.  You can walk along the top of the cliffs, where I spotted this reverse waterfall.  The water was attempting to fall, but the wind was blowing so hard it was blowing it right back up the face of the cliff.  The wind was so powerful that I was leaning into the wind at a 30° angle, with my 40lb camera bag on my back, and the wind was still holding me up.  It even knocked me down at one point when I stepped off the path into the wet grass.  Losing the advantage of friction between rubber and concrete, it just blew me over.
