Normal Stuff in Not-So-Normal Places

The video explores how materials, specifically water, behave in unusual environments. It begins with an introduction to oobleck, a non-Newtonian fluid, and then shifts focus to everyday materials. The properties of water, such as its boiling point, are examined at sea level, high altitudes, and in space. At high altitudes, water boils at a lower temperature due to reduced pressure. In space, water boils instantly and then freezes due to the vacuum and extreme cold. The video concludes by highlighting how extreme environments can alter material properties.
