I guess he should have said volume, although it is very very technical and even rewatching it now and trying to work out what he was meant to say is quite difficult. I had secondary school science teachers go over this film to evaluate the wording and they found it fine...

Sorry about the mistake...I'm a film maker,not a scientist

This video is really good except you messed up the one key part...It's volume not mass!

Your comment above is very true. It has helped grasp the basic principles and is a great job for a non-scientist, great filming too!

Yup - a good effort but alas completely wrong. Great try - do it again *right* and it would be a useful training aid.

Come to think of it maybe I'll show it as is and see how many catch the error.

I think you screwed up the idea. The extra water is how much more VOLUME the crown has, not how much more mass it has. If the crown and the bar are the same mass then they must be the same weight.
