Everyone is talking about Chewbacca mask lady Candace Payne’s You Tube video. I see why her video is such a big hit. But there’s one You Tube video that might even outdo Candace Payne’s.
This one has to do with a swimming pool and dry ice. Dry ice is usually used for food storage and preservation, fighting mosquitoes, removing floor tile, even make your own root beer. Famous You Tube video producer Crazy Russian Hacker conducted an experiment. He put 30 pounds of dry ice in a cooler. With gloves on, he crushed the dry ice. After almost dropping and spilling it, he dumps it in his backyard swimming pool. The pool bubbles up like a jacuzzi and there is a foggy mist covering the pool. Crazy Russian Hacker himself describes it as, “It looks like a volcano underwater.” He admits it was a windy day, and that might have added to the effect. In scientific terms, when dry ice hits the water, the water turned the solid into a gas. I would have love to seen him at least put his foot in the water, but that didn’t happen. Crazy Russian Hacker is known for his unconventional experiments, from food hacks to science discoveries. The man even offers tips to survive a zombie apocalypse.
And this one was a huge hit. As of this writing, Crazy Russian Hacker’s dry ice pool experiment has nearly seven million views in four days! That’s even more views than Candace Payne has. Then again, Crazy Russian Hacker has nearly 7.4 million subscribers. And dry ice experiments have been done on You Tube before, but never got this many hits or publicity. Plus, I learned other things, both from his channel and about dry ice. I had no idea dry ice could be used for so many issues. What are your favorite You Tube channels to learn from?
