This water is super cooled to somewhere around -10 degrees celsius. Since the water is nearly pure, it does not freeze at 0 degrees. However, upon adding a small piece of ice, crystals form and spread throughout the bottle, freezing the water within seconds. Blah blah..

  • im laughing at the people who dont think this is real, if your someone whos about to comment, go wiki up supercooling

    pure water thats been kept still can go to below -40 without freezing

  • Do your research first! Its pure H2O...

  • problem is fiji isnt "pure" water. 

  • I'm doing A2 Physics coursework on the Mpemba effect - how boiled water freezes faster than cooler water, and this supercooling effect messed with at least two of my results :D I'd wiggle the thermometer and it seemed to spontaneously freeze!

  • didn't work with mine...

    

  • It doesn't have to be 'pure' water, this happens even with nasty Yuma AZ tapwater

  • @XoXHootXoX Have you ever taken chemistry? Pure water is less likely to freeze than impure water. The solidification of water is analogous to starting a car engine. If you want the engine to run, you must first start it. Impurities in the water are "starters" of crystallization. Pure water does not have those "starters", so it is able to be supercooled.

  • It is totally real lol figi is like the most purified water in the world lol and unpurified water makes the freezing slower so purified water is faster

  • i would be like WHERE MY WATER BIATCH but seriously thou you must be like 5 to not know that this is real

  • my fiji water froze....

  • This happened to me with iced tea. It was soooooooooooooooooo cool

  • If the water is completely pure, yes.

    The change was not too big to freeze it, si when you open it, the air temperature makes the reaction
