In this video I experiment to see if it is possible to freeze water that is constantly flowing or being mixed. What does it look like? Why does flowing water seem to not freeze when everything else around it does?

    Nobody: Youtubers when they need ice: LIQUID NITROGEN
  • Once as a kid ive Seen a frozen waterall and was wondering how thats possible gut it looked amazing
  • Your channel is so underrated. Your love for science has taught millions at least something they didn't know
  • @GummieI
    It is impressive how many "leading" VPN's that exist...

    "Can you freeze a liquid while it's moving?" 7-Eleven Slurpee Machine: "Like two days out of the week, maybe."

    Creeks are my fave example of freezing moving water one by my house flows like a river and we used to stand on the really thick clear ice and watch it and some little fish

    People get liquid nitrogen like its milk at a grocery store or something
  • @PlasmaChannel
    I’ll hand it to you, that frozen whirlpool is actually pretty cool.
  • @theoverseer393
    considering that water that froze never froze the waterfall, I believe it's incredibly difficult also, 2:50 the thermometer is a nucleation site!
  • Freezing a water bottle has only ever done exactly that for me. It freezes, as expected. What do you change to get it supercooled?
  • @axolotl593
    Imagine just swimming in a stream and this man just... freezes it
  • @jek__
    If you vibrate water supersonically could you prevent it from freezing at -48c?
  • The concept of latent heat should've also touched in this video it would help me understand what latent heat exactly is! I finally had a little better intuition, which was the reason I have subscribed to The Action Lab. Thanks man!
  • @h7opolo
    you should've incorporated some thermal imaging in this demo.

    Actually my dad wrote his doctor thesis about this whole topic, so interesting!!!
  • Good content as usual, title and thumbnail aren't misleading which is unusual. Mad props!
