@franciscojrosero Often materials with unique properties are invented or discovered prior to being practically applied. For example cyanoacrylate (superglue or Krazy glue) was originally developed as transparent plastic for use in gun sights. It was no good for this! According to NS one use for this squishy metal could be for thermal insulation, but no doubt someone will need the technology.

@Carwave 'fraid not. Check the last three seconds of the video and compare to the first three. in the last, the metal sticks to the upper part and then falls. Similar motion is not seen at the beginning.

The video itself would be much more interesting and informative to about everyone, knowledgeable or not, if it had included a simple caption, giving us, for example, presure (Nw/cm^2) and height (cm) of the sample at any given moment.
