OK guys in case you're wondering this song is the Windows XP Installation Music. If you have XP the full version can be found here:

Why is this more interesting that just "fun things we can do in the shower"? Because it's so unexpected, that watching it in action become really compelling. Nice!

I think that I figured how its done..

the shampoo is creating a ramp and cousing the stream to bend. like a skatebord ramp...

that only what I think. Maybe i'm weong...

That's quite interesting. It seems like such a complex effect, but it's actually so simple.

[kotsoft]

pretty cool. i wonder if there's a fluid simulator on the computer that does this?

[BernierCR42]

depends on who's computer. there are more than one.

[Undig]

Can someone explain this effect to me ? Can someone at least give me the reference of an article about it ?

Doesn't the video pretty much explain it to you? It plainly demonstrates that it is merely a re-direction of energy. Its all about the angle and speed at which the stream of fluid hits the target surfaces. When the table is tilted, it shows how energy is lost due to the process of re-direction.
