Haunted swing baffles boffins

Scientists have reportedly been left baffled by a "haunted" playground swing that rocks backwards and forwards on its own.

Locals in Firmat, Argentina claim one seat swings nonstop for ten days before stopping dead, while other swings remain still.

Parents and children are convinced a ghost is to blame for the phenomenon, reports The Sun.

They reported the swing to police after it began moving four months ago,

Police officers had to admit they were stumped and called in physics professors but they too failed to find a logical explanation.

Teacher Maria de Silva Agustina said: "One child called it the Blair Witch Playground. We believe it is haunted."

Academics have now ruled out magnetic and electrical fields, and winds - and called in ghosthunters

We were discussing this in detail... wind or no wind, that is the question - but you say that the academics have ruled it out, interesting. yes.gif

we have swings across from us and the one was swinging away for about an our with the other one sitting still. It was windy so could it be wind that was making only the one move?
