Yeah! There are vids here of people running across swimming pools of the stuff... I wonder if you could drive a kiddy pool of it and make life size fingers...
Cornstarch+water in a thick mixture does weird stuff when poked... or vibrated. Try it! Also, search around here more... there are quite a few videos of this effect.
Not that I know of, though there probably are. You need a paste with "non-newtonian" behavior, basically, it gets stiffer the faster you push on it. Weird stuff!

Well dang, I meant to reply to Aqua2012's comment "I want to have a party in that" and I must have hit "remove" on the way to "reply".
Sorry 'bout that Aqua.

Why specifcally corn starch and water? Aren't there other mixtures that react like this?
