Water bottles placed in a very cold refrigerator, freeze instantly when brought outside into the hot sun of the Iraq desert.

Credit to user "fiedag" for the following explaination; "Very pure H2O often will not freeze at 0C, as there are no little nuclei around which little ice crystals can form. It is known as supercooled water. If you disturb it, you accelerate the reaction. The fact it freezes from the top suggests that some microscopic crystals had already formed and risen to the surface of the water."
Thanks again, fiedag!

  • @cathlic2007 Read description, and I think the bottle is connected to the door somehow.

  • @kvanio Way to demonstrate your stupidity. I know you've probably had 30000 people tell you this, but evaluate a situation before making remarks about some "floating object" in a video.

  • @LifesEyesFilms i know why he says kuwait, bc it kuwait those are the water bottles that we were given, in iraq where i was we had clear bottles with no label

  • @kvanio its hooked to a string so the door will close itself

  • @kvanio Its a doorcloser, you dumb fuck.

  • very cold + hot = Very very cold

    Its the same if you stay in the snow for long time and come home and dip your legs in slightly warm water. you feel a burning sensation.

  • @kvanio its not floating look closer is on a string to hold the door shut

    used as a counter weight

  • @kvanio thats to pull the door close

  • @abhab0 what a fagot

  • i got two questions

    why did water bottles just freeze up in iraq with 100 degrees weather??

    and was with the water bottle floating in 0:13??
