Man boils and holds boiling water in hands. I'm not tricking you here. It is not a chemical reaction. It is simply warm water boiling under near vacuum.

oh yeah, god old soda ;D so that means that in vacuum the boiling points get lower?

[pooperscooper71]

@klick2destruct Yes, and if you have enough time you can make it freeze after persistent boiling in a vacuum. Crazy!

i saw the hose at 0:31 secs

[pooperscooper71]

@amber2663 Yeah that's the vacuum hose.

@pooperscooper71 ;D

i totally forgot how pressure changes the boiling point

Ha...for a moment I thought it was just lemonade

@Terrorist939 No problem! I was happy that you'd thought that as I was hoping to confuse people and get them thinking.

[Terrorist939]

@pooperscooper71 oo yeah didn`t think about that sorry

@Terrorist939 It is boiling water. It's just under a vacuum. You should be able to see the pipe which I have accidentally hidden that is sucking the air out of the flask. The water is at about 30 degrees centigrade.
