  • Edyaret: ikr

  • Go to portabella road in London this Chinese woman sells these mini balls add water and wait then they grow big and bouncy :) I have then downstairs

  • You didt show us how to bounce it gay ass video

  • U didn't show us how to make it bounce so this wasGAY!!!!!!!!!

  • "...when dropped on a hydrophobic surface". So you agree that you have to "do" something to make this occur. Just like you have to drop a ball to make it bounce. What would you expect in a video called "How to Make a Ball Bounce"? Would you only expect a high-speed close up ball's bounce?

    You can pay attention to words all you like, but knowing what to do with them is a different matter.

    Also, in case this hasn't come up, nature is rad! The video itself is fantastic.

  • the surface tension of the water keep the droplets intact.. i guess..

  • the surface is just extremley hot and air olds the water up

  • The first bounce looks unnatural.

  • Do a google on hydrophobia. Rabies comes up because of the "fear of water" rabid animals exhibit.

    And it IS spelled hydro, not hydra... learn how to spell before correcting someone!

  • @hopper2698 actually, its because of the difficulty rabid animals have swallowing water. they aren't actually afraid of it.

  • can u use malt vinegar?

  • doesn't hydrophobic means you have rabbies?

  • @RoyalSmoker what the fuck?? hydra means water and u spelled it wrong you twat and phobic means scared or resistant in this case but where the fuck did u get rabies from?

  • @RoyalSmoker sorry i mean hydro not hydra but still your gay

  • this is wear my folks tax monkey is going to???

  • Its could just be the Leidenfrost effect (cold water - REALLY hot plate) just viewed up close and way slowed down

  • this video is fake and gay

  • @cobweb93

    But you know what isn't fake and gay? The comment question of the day.

  • @cobweb93 yeah well your dicks fake and your gay you twat

  • make shit bounce and l'll watch the rest of your crappy videos

  • Its "see water bounce" Not "how to make water bounce".!

  • Put a glass jar of water on a vibrating surface (Washing machine doing spinning, an air compressor, an engine or a boom-boom speaker with a recorded sound of an engine)

    and then drop water using an eye-dropper. See the droplets bounce on the water surface of the jar.

  • Homeade lava lamp lol

  • U don't control the rain so u don't make water bounce all the time

  • @terribletoys so "YOU" personally are in control of the worlds weather and make it rain??

  • use oil on water. simple science.. they don't mix.

    we used refined oil ---virgin coconut oil to be exact.

  • This isn't "How to Make Water Bounce". This IS water bouncing. If it were how to make water bounce, we'd get instructions on how to do it.

    Words mean things for a reason.

  • @theblasto check out the Caltech site on youtube.com: "Water Droplet Bouncing on a Superhydrophobic Carbbon Nanotube Array"...they have a better grasp of our language than GE

  • its the use of highspeed cam

  • who knows what isde offects such suface has.

  • What "side effect" could a surface actually have?!

  • This would make an awesome Under Armor-ish T-Shirt :) Or it could be used on the undeside of boats?

  • An GE's next trick, run the US government without ever running in an election.

  • definitely not

  • no its a substance that you can make and it looks like water and when it hits the air it looks like marbles

  • yuo just add sodium acetate and salt and boil it.

  • I love these idiots who write before they switch on brain.

  • Copy & paste then send this to 3 other videos and nothing will happened! I did it twice and it worked!

  • Would you believe if someone said that the universe expands and contracts almost instantly?

    Instantly meaning at a speed so fast you could not conceive.

  • Possibly

  • The first part was n response to another conversation. The second part was basic high school physics. Now excuse this nerd while he goes to get an education that will net him a higher paying job than you. k thanks bye.

  • science geeks ;)

  • Current data suggests the universe is expanding at an exponentially increasing speed. The culprit of this is the theoretical dark energy of our universe (consisting of over 70% Dark Energy... theoretically until dark matter or dark energy is actually detected).

    I guess according to E =mC^2, it's impossible to reach the speed of light because the energy required gets exponentially larger and you theoretically are energy when you are as fast as light.

    1/5mv^2 = mc^2.? Hope I did that right.

  • thats what she said

  • epic... not

  • I know how you did that all you did was play a video of a drop of water hitting the floor then rewinde the video. But blurr out the water droplet that the blob obzorbs.

  • you're a fucking moron

  • Surely  you are joking?

  • A much better demonstration of a Superhydrophobic surface can be seen here: "/watch?v=1j04peq4c9U".

    (not mine... it's just real neat!)

  • Alright cool...now how do I do that?

    ...don't tell me...you aren't going to explain how to do it?! Are you telling me I just watched 4 minutes of a drop of water in slow-motion for nothing?!

  • they created an extremely hydrophobic object that you probably can't do on your own without a high tech lab.

  • this isnt how to make water bouce! this is just water boucing.

  • you guys are a bunch of nerds.i cant watch the video my computers being realy stupid.

  • Oh yea! Haha, i've never thought about that...we probably are moving an a VERY VERY fast speed. Indeed, you may be right...hmmm we COULD be going faster than light or VERy close to it...that's an interesting thought, Devastoras...a very interesting thought indeed. I'll talk to my physics teacher about it.

    And i did understand what you meant and i didnt know you werent english or i wouldnt have said anything. I sometimes forget that youtube is a global network, not just english. My appologies.

  • No. by saying you are running, you are implying that someone is physically moving their legs to get from point a to point b. Moving was the correct term but whatever, i understand what you meant.

    Honestly, there is a 50/50 chance we are going towards the center. We might not have slowed down enough to go back inwards after the initial explosion but you are absolutely right. We could be going back to the center to explode again.

    I dont see what it has to do with anything.

  • have you never watched "The HitchHikers Guide To the Galaxy". It provs a valid point of the universe being this shape of a "Donut" To where it is opening up to itself- by which i mean, you go up to the top, come out of the bottom like in the game "Asteroids"

  • well, no cuz you are actually sitting at your desk. You are MOVING at a few couple miles per second...but ur not running. ur just moving involuntarily.

    I dont think we are moving towards the center of the universe. I dont think the universe has a definite center that means anything. If there were, then it would collapse under it's own gravitational well and thus nothing would be there except possibly a black whole.

    And i believe in God...i dont see your point.

  • yep...lol in science class, we were talking about that and some girl was like "so if you are walking on the earth you are going faster than it?" and i just said "it depends on which way you are walking" lol and everyone just stared at me like...wow really?

  • it says "how to". all i see is you bouncing water balls. wat's with that?

  • its just water on a superhydrophobic surface

  • yea, what you said.

  • HeHe. x]

  • just becuz its hard to believe doesnt mean its fake like the theory of if two people had clocks and one stayed on the ground and one flew around the world one of the clocks will be ahead by like 1 millisecond

  • well it all depends on how close the flying clock is to lightspeed and the direction that the other clock was spining on the earth. If you think about it, the clock on the ground is already going about 1,000 miles eastwards...the plane would have to go east to reach maximum speed in relevance to the clock on the ground.

    Lol, yea, i'm a nerd and i think about that stuff haha.

  • consider that speed at which the earth orbits the sun, and the speed out solar system oribits the center of our galaxy, and the speed at which the galaxy moves through space as well. and if you really wanna get scientific consider that our universe itself is moving aswell. all things considerd i believe we already are traveling the speed of light

  • Well you could be correct, so i'm not saying arent. But if you think about it...the speed of light is just a number 186,000 miles/second i think and you CAN go faster than that...but the speed of light for whoever is going any speed is 186,000 miles/second faster than them. Basically i am saying that if you are going 200,000 miles/second, the speed of light relative to YOU is about 386,000 miles per second. That's why it is "impossible" to go faster than the speed of light.

  • So with all things considerd the speed of light is infinite

  • pretty much. But only for the person who is getting closer to the speed of light. To observers, that person ages slower because relative to them, he is moving faster than light.

  • Not quite true ... the fact is that you always travel at an exactly constant and limited rate through spacetime, to travel faster through space you travel slower through time. at the speed of light time will no longer pass. The mindf*ck is that as you go faster light will speed up relative to you, presenting two alternate realities, both equally true, to you and a onlooker for whom light is still travelling as normal.

  • But if some way, you could watch a space ship or some object traveling say 50% speed of light, wouldn't the light coming off of it be traveling 150% the speed of light, relative to you?

  • no, the light travels at a constant speed, its you who are traveling slower so i would seem that the light is traveling twice as fast because its moving farther away every second.

  • i think so. There is an example i'm going to cite. In a study by a radio dish antenna that studies deep space bodies of matter, they discovered that they could see if a large body of matter was orbiting a star by the change in color of the star.

    It makes sense...light is only wavelengths..if another, large object pulls it towards or away from you, the color changes. Thus proving that light can change relative speeds.

    The answer to your question, Sptdexs, is yes. i do believe it would be 150%.

  • Well it would actually be the decrease in wavelength (or rather because the same wave hits you more frequently). It is actually just a shift towards the wavelength of blue light. If you do the light slit experiment (cant remember what its called) with white light, you will know what I mean, without extra details.

    I don't think you are using your highschool physics background correctly.

  • No, If you were watching a ship going 50%, then any light coming off of it would be going 100% the speed of light, ie 2 as fast. But to anyone in that spaceship, the light coming off is going at 100% the speed of light relative to them so in theory 3 times as fast as the spaceship, but still 100% the speed of light relative to any 'passengers'. This means that depending on where in the universe you are the spaceship and the light it gives off are moving away from each other at different speeds.

  • the thing to realise is that the order of events in the universe depends on your location and velocity, and that there is no one difinitve order of events, and nor is there any way to properly consider object's motion relative to each other without taking into account perspective.

  • Actually, if you were completely still in on instance of the universe (ignoring relativity to the universe etc) and a space ship was comming towards you at or close to the speed of light, would it not appear blue due to compressions in waves?

    In a real life instance, a fire truck comming towards you makes the siren's pitch go higher, and when it goes away, lowers in pitch.

    So the light comming off it would be at different speeds due to compression and it would change colour =]

  • Comment removed

  • freakin' awsome

  • hydrophobic means that water does not mix with a substance easily. The material was probably coated with a hydrophobic substance. Since the substance was extremely hydrophobic, it viciously repelled the water, causing it to bounce.

  • I think this video is poorly named.

  • slow motion reverse....duh

  • duh thats why when the water is going back up the rest of the droplets are dispercening outward. If you understood bio you would know the hydrophobic means it cant get near water so when the water hits it, it pushes it away. helps to read the description ; )

  • Hey, after watch the video I comment(previous) then I try to watch the video in backward and I realize I was wrong!

    Yeah and just started BIO 111 not too good a Chemistry

  • lol its fine I didnt mean that in a bad way. It is actually REALLY cool how this works though watch the video Superhydrophobic Surface by dimsum22 its sooo cool

  • How do u do it then u prick

  • To all the people saying it's "fake". Thanks god you're not someone with influence.

  • wtf

  • its really sad so amny people really care this much about it. it is what it is retards

  • ok i know it bounces but how? lol stupid

  • Congratz guys finally u got that hydrophobic layer as that of Lotus keep the good work going I Bless the entire team who made this happen

  • so your saying the drop of water is dropped in the middle then it bounced to the left side of the video?

    ok i wont believe this until there is proof

  • superhydrophobic

  • that's freaking awesome!!

  • it is so cool,i've never seen water like this before.just watch the moment a water drop touch the flat,it is amazing that water is of unbelievable elasticity.

    cool,spectacular,fantastic '''

  • ditto, this video won't play for me either.

  • finally loaded... reminds me of T-1000 Terminators

  • oh yeah!

  • out of curiosty was this done in a airless space or was this done in a regular room sorry if i dont know the technical terms

  • yeah i was thinking the same thing

  • It wouldn't be possible in a vacuum, liquid water becomes vapor in extremely low pressures.

  • is that true,show me the reason,ok?

  • It's the same principle as why water boils at a lower temp at high elevation, except in a vacuum the pressure is much much lower, so the temp needed to boil it is also much lower.

  • i dont think so,when you have an injector,you filled it with water(no air in it),then block the openning and draw the handdle,then there is a vaccum,but the watter willnot become vapor>

  • When water is put into a perfect vacuum it will freeze, and then vaporize straight from the ice form. these are the laws of physics.

  • Ever thought of centering the bouncing drop in the frame to start with, dooperdorp?

  • It was a high speed camera pointing in one direction. Does it really matter? Centering doesn't matter all that much on something like this which looks just like a video which demonstrates the property of the hydrophobic surface. It doesn't have to look pretty. It just has to give data.

  • That is so cool. Surface tension & superhydrophobia rocks in slow motion! (never thought I'd ever say that...)

  • this water can bounce on my cock

  • video freezes right after it starts

  • didnt work

  • extremely boring

  • Then you should go watch pr0n or WWF. Since you have so much to do with your life THIS IS NOT ENTERTAINMENT.

  • I said it was boring...your saying it is not entertaiment...same thing...why are you commenting on my comment!

  • this may have been interesting... IF THE VIDEO PLAYED CORRECTLY!

    grrrr

  • agreed...its almost completely buffered but it's not playing...just keeps having the annoying doted circle.

  • some one has alot of free time...

  • wow

  • Wow cool but really boring

  • The distance dropped is so small, there is not enough energy built up to break the structure of the water droplet.

    Interesting, but not really exciting.

    This is the kind of thing I would do after hours if I had the equipment they get to play with.

  • Why thank you Professor KnowItAll for being that guy. Every youtube video needs one. We as youtube viewers appreciate your contribution.

  • hahahah blueberries4everyone, i like the name. hahaha

  • video doesnt play

  • this is sweet

  • If you drew a smiley face on the water, I'd be a better video. :)

  • Video doesn't play

  • Just move the time frame forward.

    The start is f**ked up.

    I dont need a thankyou or anything.

    your welcome

    Bie

  • I want it on the hull of my boat!

  • hahaha this is an immature comment but the bouncing water sorta looks like flubber...if u saw the movie then u kno wat im talkin about

  • i thought it was totally funny ;) hahaha this was some cool shit

  • That's really cool. I wish they did it also at a faster speed. Only about 10% of that video is actual cool content.

    So, when can I have this on my windshield?

  • I think you misunderstand the video. The technology is a super-hydrophobic surface that repels water so fantastically that it actually bounces. This has no application to breast augmentation.

  • It wasn't funny.

  • Newtondave is serious business. Don't mess with Newtondave.

  • No. A joke would be something like "You know porn theaters are going to be interested in this." A comment about breast implants shows that he has no idea what the video is about. Water in breast implants? How is that funny?

  • Mayssm knows what the video is about; since the water was bouncing he immediately thought "boobs". He tried to make a breast joke and failed. Don't take trolls too damn seriously!

  • Actually, I think my original comment does good to help others understand what the video was about. That's also the reason why I was so verbose in my reply -- and probably the reason why dave1812dave questioned my sense of humor.

  • Bouncing water, bouncing boobs, that's the joke. Very highbrow.

  • Lilly!... Lilly? Lilly!... Lilly? Lilly? Where are you? Sit!

    Sorry, just playing with the audio preview :P
