 Welcome back to Kids Fun Science. My name is Ken. Today's experiment is walking on water. As always, adult supervision is required. What you need for this experiment is a boogie boards, a lake, and a volunteer. The first experiment is just running off the dock with your bare feet and here we go and you can see it comes in right about the end of the boat and the last foot hits in at the end of the ladder and goes straight down from there. It goes about a foot but that's just about the momentum that's taking him that foot sinking the whole entire time. So it's not really walking on water but more force of running off the dock at this point. But he did make it about a foot. It comes in about at the end of the boat with one foot and then maybe the end of the ladder platform with the other and went straight down from there. The reminder that the water is about 50 degrees so it's very very cold. I'll do this in the name of science right so I was able to get my son to do this. So it's pretty cool. So the second experiment we're going to duct tape boogie boards to his feet to see if that's going to help him walk on water. So here we go. He's taken off an attempt and there it goes. It looks like he got a little bit in there so we'll see it in slow motion here and we're going to see where he initially gets in and where he is going to to see if he gets any steps and able to walk on water. So we got him starting up here and he's going to take off and we're going to see if he's going to be able to launch a little bit faster here. So of course we want to do in slow motion so we can see the progress to see how far he goes. Good old duct tape is going to be able to hold anything there. So he got a couple boogie boards. He's taken off into flight not as much momentum as he had otherwise. This time he comes a little bit short. You can see he's about a foot back of the boat so he's starting about a foot farther back and then as we continue to go we can see he's starting to take one, two, maybe about two and a half steps. There's one, see it again, two. He's still up. He hasn't sank. You know he's still going forward and then he starts to pull that half up and the board gets a little bit sucked under and now he's starting to go under but he's passed the platform so it looks like it is having the boogie boards did help. He was able to have a couple different steps there to be able to walk on water pretty impressive. So the water temperature was about 50 degrees Fahrenheit and 10 degrees Celsius. It was pretty cold and so it was a success though. We're able to walk on water using the boogie boards at least two and a half steps so that was a success. So we're going to try it one more time. My son weighed 125 pounds and we're going to see if weight has to do anything with a factor so we're going to try it with myself and I weigh 185 and we'll see if that has anything to do with it. So here I go. Also I am not as brave so I took it off in the warmer water which was about 75 degrees a lot better and so taking off here it's got a little bit more duct tape this time but we don't have any boat to really measure me on how far I'm going to go but I don't think I'm going to go too far here. So as I come off I'm doing pretty good at first and when I hit the water it starts to go under pretty quick because of the weight and then I do the splits which is probably not a good thing for moving forward and everything goes downhill from there. So having a little bit of extra pounds on there doesn't help the theory of walking on water but I hope you enjoyed this video remember to click thumbs up and to subscribe and thanks for watching.
