It is funny how even after so many failing each kid still thinks they can magically do it with the same way despite being subject to same physics laws

The winner is the teacher's daughter. She watched him test it the night before at home.

[–] thenextguy@sh.itjust.works 23 points 3 days ago

Or an older sibling who had this test last year.

I would've never suspected that stirring water would make something that size rise up.

[–] prowe45@piefed.social 7 points 3 days ago

But you see, the key to the trick is that size has nothing to do with it, nor does weight. It's all about relative densities. The orange is almost entirely water, with just enough other stuff in it to make it sink. Even a bowling ball will float in water if it weighs less than 12 lbs.

take the glass, drink the water, pull out the Mandarin, no drop was spilled.

[–] spankysalmon@fedinsfw.app 31 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Would you want to drink water ten+ kids put their hands in?

There are clubs in Los Angeles where children's dirty bathwater cocktails sell for $50.00 a glass.

If you think that's dirty just wait till you have kids

[–] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Well, exactly the problem. It's not just any hands, but child hands.
When I dig through my memory, my hands could've often been classified as biohazard. Genuinely.

We had a separate toilet room with no sink. I've used to spend a lot of time closed there. I've also played with wet toilet paper, modeling it into shapes.
Remember, no sink. So, how did I get it wet? Yeah, just like that. And I didn't necessarily flush before.
Sometimes I even used turds wrapped in a layer of toilet paper. It was warm and squishy.

[–] ryannathans@aussie.zone 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

How long ago are we talking 👀 toilet fister

The glass comes with a free frogurt.

Schrodinger's mandarin?

Too much mustache, I'd lose at least a drop or two

That's just spilling it into your mouth.

[–] jdr@lemmy.ml 63 points 3 days ago (1 children)

"winner" spilled several drops, stab that orange with a pencil

[–] stembolts@programming.dev 5 points 2 days ago

Yes! I also came here to criticize the little girl.

Allies unite, I ain't allowing that munchkin no stole valor.

[–] CallMeButtLove@lemmy.world 50 points 3 days ago

That hug from her friend was so genuinely heartwarming I couldn't help but smile.

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 25 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I would've drank the water

[–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

That was my first strategy. Then, after watching a few attempts, I adjusted that strategy to "set up a new cup and I'll do it" because that water would have been nasty as soon as the first kid dipped their hands.

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

So we now have bots posting Facebook slop on here? And the users are upvoting this shit?

Seems like Lemmy is doomed to go down the same path as every other social media.

[–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The difference is the comment section here has some coherency to it, isn't sorted to drive engagement, and the platform encourages discussion rather than trying to simultaneously make you interested in this thing but also the next thing so you don't spend too much time talking about this thing instead of seeing ads.

And no one is trying to use the comment box as a search engine or to message their granddaughter.

I also don't expect to see many comments on the race of the kids here.

Maybe the community will eventually go to shit here, too, but the difference between the various social media sites isn't just the content, it's the way the site is run and the kind of people it attracts and keeps.

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Reddit, Instagram, Facebook and every other social media didn't start that way either, they started off good, but then they got worse over time

[–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Yeah but I'd still argue it wasn't the content that caused that, other than having content attracted more people and there could be some critical mass (though I think it's about when the medium attracts a more mainstream audience that includes people who don't like to think more than they absolutely need to).

[–] Hupf@feddit.org 15 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Step 1: put the plate on the glass as a lid

Step 2: hold the two together firmly, quickly turn them upside down

Step 3: trivial, the next person can easily figure it out from here.

What a wholesome antidote to the darkness that pervades. No AI, no screens, just kids learning. Love it.

I feel like a drop would have spilled had she gone first. Part of this challenge is to let others fail so that you can succeed in the aftermath

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 35 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The cup is filled to the same level when she sticks her finger in, as it was at the start of the video. Also, the water gets refilled throughout the video.

Use something sharp with low volume (a needle/fork?) so it doesn't spill over.

Pour some water into the dish then get the mandarin. No water spilled.

[–] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 5 points 3 days ago

Sir this is the science class, not english.

[–] wuphysics87@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I would have taken the L and fisted it for the next person

[–] LodeMike@lemmy.today 12 points 3 days ago

It's refilled
