BOILING WATER INTO -22 F WEATHER

[asuperpower]

freezing! BTW I thought 40 degrees farenheight was cold.

[isenhart666]

fail imperial is fail

why can't you idiots just use metric like the normal parts of the world??

[fumil]

because the government is too "proud" to be like the rest of the world...

[washingtonwarrior]

i like water

[StuartZ]

SRV rules

[J0hnnyH4ck3r]

dude u cant boil water at 212 it boils/turns into gas at 100 degrees unless u were using distilled water which would have exploded in ur face man!

[rkc5150]

water boils at 212 degrees Fahrenheit, or 100 degrees Celsius. water is water... distilled or not, so not sure what you're really trying to say,  dude.

[samurai7411]

if the water is distilled, then it will not boil by itself. once something disturbs the water, it will boil instantly and violently (when heated to or past the boiling point of water)

[asuperpower]

@rkc5150 it's easier to remember 100 boiling point and 0 freezing point.

[rkc5150]

i have no problem remembering that water boils at 212 F and freezes at 32 F, AND that water boils at 100 C and freezes at 0 C, so your point is....??? it's not that big of a deal. we should all be using the Kelvin scale anyways ;) Stop trying to make the argument over which scale is "better"... such a silly argument.

[departedangel89]

youre stuck on the Celcius scale. 212 is Fahrenheit

[IncredibleGoliath]

Stuck with the rest of the world, on the metric system.

[Ksquaredgaming]

metric is way better than iperial, like 212? its so random. I like 100 better

[xj14y]

I have that exact same set of cookware.

And I call BS on this one. It has to be reproducible.

I remain unconvinced

[rkc5150]

LMAO ! WTF does the kind of cookware have to do with it?? thanks for the laugh .... lol lollololollooolololol

[DeLuciaRules134]

I like the SRV in the background

[JesseDELTA88]

im pooping right now

[marty20dev]

thats pretty cool-im a 4th year college student studing thermodynamics and i was going to say something smart but instead im going home to my crappy student flat to try this and to listen to a abba cd i found. i mean did someone lose or what-i need beer

[rkc5150]

naahhh, come on say it! maybe we will all learn from it. my thoughts on this were that it has something to do with latent heat and the rapid and change in actual temperature of over 200 degrees in less than a second. the energy in the hot water wants it to expand and it does so when thrown in the air, but then the rapid cooling cause it to condense into a fog before hitting the ground, so we're actually seeing a fog, rather than "steam"... something like that.

[koltonkj26]

i live in north dakota and once it got to -40 degrees and I threw normal water into the air and it froze rock solid to ice not snow.

[lapointe1333]

Iremember I was there one year and it was -70

[glokmar117]

thats ossim im going to try that

[maklar89]

awesome*

[bloodshot16]

water boils at 100 degrees?

and how did you know it was 22 degrees if you had no thermometer?

[rkc5150]

yes 100 degrees CELSIUS. I got the temperature from the news, and my computer. I meant I didn't have a thermometer for you to see on the video. Thanks.

[lucasbadong]

i seen the print of the water like all over the ground...

[Fangscream]

Ah, yes. This old myth goes back to basic misunderstanding of how vaporization works. I think the SEED of the myth might be that because you can SEE more steam in cold air (it condenses faster), so scientifically uneducated people think it's actually vaporizing quicker. It isn't: You can just see the condensation better. If you have a TINY bit of boiling water, it'll disappear quick at ANY temp--but dry air is better. At -40 deg, air is VERY dry. Hot desert air is better though. Myth busted!

[rkc5150]

There is no myth. If you take boiling water, or water very close to boiling and even just pour it out of a pot slowly into air that is 200 degrees colder, the water will be gone before hitting the ground. Try that in a desert and it won't work.

[WadeLogan]

Agreed, it's no myth, we did it in the snow and there were no marks on the ground where boiling water had hit any snow.

[saris42]

it is to bad that everything that floated away was STEAM not snow. and is that Water I see melting the snow?

-22 F !!!!! HA, wonder what would happen if it was actually COLD outside (get -40C on a Regular basis in winter where I live)

[Jarda44]

I love Boil, Roy Boylan, boil boiling love boil.

[elkkuman]

is that boiling water become to snow

[rkc5150]

it just evaporates before it hits the ground

[bassz9]

water dosnt boil at 212 unless ur at sea level.. the higher up u are, the less the temperature needs to be for boiling.

[rkc5150]

you're correct. I should have put 210.29 degrees F. That's more accurate for the 918 feet above sea level I was at, but then again, I was 10 feet higher up on the deck too :o.... :)

[ROCKsquareANORACK]

or 100 degrees celcius if you live in the uk

[Dan5481]

Wow Great Video

i thank god it doesn't get that cold in Melbourne Australia
