This is a video of scientific experimenter and Youtuber NightHawkinLight levitating a hotdog by suspending it in a stream of compressed air (an example of the Coandă effect) and cooking the dog via a heating coil in what is arguable the coolest fashion ever, followed distantly by those hotdog carousels
This is short video of James Orgill of The Action Lab presenting a video from his more internet attention span appropriate channel Action Lab Shorts, featuring him repeatedly cutting water droplets in half with a razor blade that’s been treated with a superhydrophobic coating. Pretty neat, but *unsheathing blade, swinging
This is a video of the biochemist behind Youtube channel NileRed Shorts (previously: dissolving a penny in nitric acid) discussing why white phosphorus is so dangerous, in a very watchable 50 seconds. So, why is white phosphorus so dangerous? Because it reacts with oxygen and likes to GET LIT and
Presumably not found heads-up on the sidewalk for good luck, this is a video of Youtuber NileRed Shorts completely dissolving a penny in nitric acid. As the penny dissolves, it produces noxious nitrogen dioxide gas, and, after about ten minutes, you’re left with nothing but a beaker full of dark

Because scientists have to eat too, this is a video of a group of researchers atop the currently active Geldingardalsgos volcano in Fagradalsfjall, Iceland cooking some wieners and toasting some buns on a hardening lava flow. So, do you think the hot dogs taste like volcano? “What does volcano taste

Because going nowhere fast is a real thing that happens, this is a video of glider pilot Brent Davidson traveling at 46 knots (~53MPH) in an equal headwind of 46 knots created by an air wave lifted by a mountain range below, causing the glider to just float stationary in
