Editor's Note - It's fun for us to see Steve Spangler in a complete stage of amazement and confusion and obsessed with wanting to learn more about a science demo. We get calls every day from physics professors who all have their unique way to explain this demonstration. Please know that this explanation will evolve over time as we learn more and try to wrap our minds around the science of Laminar Flow.
Steve Spangler was first inspired to recreate this demonstration after seeing Dr. Kevin Cahill, from the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of New Mexico, first present this on video. We have contacted Dr. Cahill and hope that we can have him share his explanation.
