Cornstarch and water - Twilla - 04-02-2010
I think what I like about this video is the crazy cute volunteer from the audience. Girl is fearless.

Oh i saw this when it aired! Was pretty damn cool too. I think someone even posted this here before you joined and when I had the old software.
I was tempted to try that with a small container and some "heavy" objects then but I forgot - now you remind me and I want to try all over again.

And here I thought cornstarch and water was a thickening agent for making gravy. Silly me!

Thats nothing, I do that when I'm in the boat and I forgot the beer on shore.

I've seen this done in a swimming pool. I've also seen the same out in the harbour, its just a quicksand formula. Don't stand still walk fast and you'll be lucky to get over it. Stand still............as the presenter discovered, in the swimming pool, you will get 'sucked under'. The fire service added more water to loosen him up and drag him out.
I'd rather eat my custard than play with it.

We usually learn there are four states of matter. The cornstarch and water mixture represent a fifth form, non Newtonian fluids. Then there are superfluids (Einstein Bose condensates) and supersolids, and I'm sure a few more I don't know about.
Look up ferrofluid, that is awesome, too.
