Could You Run on Water?

The video explores the concept of running on water, starting with the mythical basilisk and its real-life counterpart, a lizard that can run on water due to physics, not magic. It explains why humans can't naturally run on water due to the weak molecular forces in liquids compared to solids. Small animals use surface tension to walk on water, while larger animals like basilisks and grebes use specific techniques to run on water. Humans would need to generate immense force to run on water, but a study shows it's possible under reduced gravity, like on the moon. The video concludes with a SciShow promotion.
