showing how supercooled water can turn into solid, right before your eyes.
When you take pure water and expose it to temperatures below 32c, it can continue to cool in its liquid state given certain atmospheric pressures (135atm i think). By shaking the water you can cause a seed crystal to form inside and create a chain reaction to partially solidify the water.
