I've never seen or heard of this. I live just a couple hours from Ontario (we have the same weather) and i'm supprised that I hadn't heard anybody talk about this. I will have to check it out myself. Its -27 today here so it would be perfect to try this...

It is called supercooled Water. If the water is extremely pure, as in has very little to no particulate in the water, there will not be any nucleation sites in the liquid, which is required to start the freezing process. Once the bottle is shaken or disturbed, air bubbles introduced to the liquid will act as nucleation sites around which the water will begin freezing. Once it begins freezing, the ice will spread until the entire bottle is frozen.

I grew up about 2hrs from where this was supposedly filmed and have never heard of it. It is -27C (-8F) here today and I might just put a bottle on my patio tonight - thinking it was more 'misting' or iced up on the bottle than anything.

Not sure if that works, but last week it was -40 here (literally, the second coldest place on the planet that day) and my husband took a cup of Water outside, threw it into the air, and it froze/evaporated before coming back down. Very very very cold that week.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
