charlesIncredible slow motion video of water hitting sand
:
The true nature of substances can be hard to appreciate, sometimes, especially since interactions can occur faster than our eye can see.
A drop of water, for example, is a beautiful thing to see in slow motion, forming an intricate crown and jeweled spires that seem to stretch and reach to the sun before they are pulled down by the iron hands of gravity.
It's always fascinating to see these kind of slow motion videos, especially this next one, which is of a water drop hitting very fine sand - so fine that the sand behaves almost like a liquid.
There's a popular series of flash-based browser games called Falling Sand, or World of Sand, or Hell of Sand, which allow the user to interact with sand, water and other substances. They're interesting physics simulations, modelling water flow and the interaction between these substances. And you can also blow stuff up. Here's a link to one.
Here's another video of a slow motion water drop:
And if you'd like a little more slow motion fun, here's a compilation video of slow-mo videos:
