How to make fluid "climb" up! AMAZING SLIME EXPERIMENT!
Season 3
Episode 27
Slime exhibits some crazy unusual properties, like viscoelasticity, because it's a non-newtonian fluid. We can use non-newtonian properties to make the fluid "defy gravity" and climb up a spinning rod. This is called the Weissenberg effect.
