The imploding soda can is a little trick I learned one day when the soda can is filled with steam then flipped upsidedown into icy water the air outside will literally crush the can. Ok, I know I didn't describe how it works very well in the video so here ya go. When the water inside the can boils it will expand into steam which will force the air out. When you flip it upsidedown into the icy water, the cold from the water will turn the steam from a gas into a liquid again. there for in shrinks on the inside and the air outside wants to get in to fill the empty space, but it can't because the opening is under the water sooooo..... as you can tell the air just crushes the can to get rid of that empty space. Hope that's better, if you still don't understand look it up.

  • I heated mine in a microwave, it worked great.

  • When the warm water hits the cold water the pressure makes the can implode!
