Give this one a go: Some Spaniards put walking across "water" to the test.
so if we just dump enough corn starch in the ocean we can run from here to china?

Pretty wicked. I also like how the show's website:
http://www.cuatro.com/microsites/el_hormiguero/cientifico.html
...seems to feature a Spanish Marilyn Manson cooking with nitrogen. It's about halfway down the page on the right.
Everyone standing around watching in that video are annoying as hell. Ok, so they walked on "water"...was it any different the 10th or 30th time than the 1st? No, it was the exact same. SO WHY THE HELL ARE THESE PEOPLE SO FUCKING HAPPY ABOUT IT? It was new the 1st time, maybe the 2nd and 3rd. But after what, 4 minutes later and everyone is still cheering in awe and wonder.
Stupid losers. I'd like to drown them in some non-newtonian fluid...
I thought the guy that sank in it was pretty funny... his stunned expression makes sense at first, but it doesn't wear off... it's like he's continually amazed that he's sitting up to his neck in a tank of corn starch.
Looks like it would be fun to run across though.
They should put some giant subwoofers in the pool, and then make people run across. They'd have to beat down the corn starch monsters with clubs or risk drowning!
