Real or fake - levitating water without a cup

Watch this video and see if you think its real or fake.

If you have to ask, I have some ocean front property in Montana you may be interested in.

Right now a bunch of people are spilling water on themselves and floors.

if it's on youtube, it's fake :P

Everything on the internet is FAAAAAKE!

It took a couple tries, but I was able to eventually do it. It's real.

Wow, that was more lame and fake than I was expecting...

This is something I would expect to see in the matrix not RL.

Good CGI but fake as hell.

Isaac Newton is facepalming right now.

Someone arrest this man! He's breaking the laws of gravity!

*submits to Mythbusters*

EDIT: Damn, too late.

It must be real! Especially since all the rest of the guys youtube videos involve his work in 3d special effects.

Of course it's real...

:lol: People actually tried to do this?

fake...

I wish it was real :(

This is real, I tried it and everything.

Now how many of us OT'ers are going to try this at home only to be disappoint with a watery mess to clean up.

I'm a Nigerian prince and I could help you fund a research experiment into this. . .

I'm actually not sure. I'm skeptical but I felt the same way about this. Turned out it was real.

Mythbusters just got some new material for their show to bust.

No. Just no.

Even if that little twist would magically keep the water from spilling (which it wouldn't) it would not keep the EXACT shape of the cup. In fact if it was a vortex it would spin out and collapse just like his "failed" attempts. The edges of water do not magically turn solid.

I really have to facepalm at people who think this is real.

If you're having trouble, try adding a little bit of vinegar to the water.SolidSnake35

Or freezing it. I couldn't get it out of the cup, though:(

Could have been real if it wasn't for gravity... horgen123

Its too unbelievableto even be remotely believable. Not sure how he did it (I'm guessing its very clear ice) but no, Water will not stand up like a sand castle even if you create a vortex affect.
