Fake. You can see the strings attached to the peppers.

that happens because the dish washing soup ruins the surface tension of the water, and the pepper is no to heavy to swim and sinks, same works with a rain collecting barrel where tons of mosquito sit on the water surface, put a drop of soup into it and all the mosquitos will die ;)

@Nevermind9132 its science and no one can see it and when we put the soap in who pulled the peppers

it happens because water molecules stick less to air molecules then soap. when soap is introduced, the soap molecules attatch to the water molecules, and the air molecules attatch to the soap molecules, greatly decreasing the surface tension. when the soap was introduced, it disperses quickly through the water and begins this reaction. the water that still has the surface tension shrinks, like a piece of rubber to the outside. and the surface tension of that water pulls the pepper with it

Hahaahaha peppers afraid of soap. :)

@NeverMind9132 LOL

this is mi science experiment for the science fair

omg



[mezzic1212]

this is because soap acts as a hydrophobic. wich repels anything inside the water. but once the soap is mixed in with the water it will actract pepper when swished around.... ITS SCIENCE
