    That is pretty cool! I think we made that stuff in elementary school science. Never thought it could support that much weight though.

    There is another video with cornstarch and water, i cant find it yet but its pretty freaky. It involves shaking the substance and inserting a hole, then all these finger like intrusions pop out...LOL i cant explain ill try and find it.

    I saw a video before that said the harder the force is the harder it is to penatrate? Well I was wondering would a bullet from a gun not go in and if it does. they should make vest with it and just padding lol I would try shooting a 2littler filled with it but what if it did work... would it bounce back off towards me?

    Un this? http://youtube.com/watch?v=lDzampa3xrc& ... ed&search=

    yeaahh!!! the ending is INSANE, it actually looks freaky. I don't think the bullet would work since its aerodynamic and vests arent thick. But then again this thing doesnt really follow fluid dynamics lol.

    it clearly stated that on youtube, mixed in a concrete truck that is pretty cool though

    does anybody know the percent of cornstarch and the percent of water needed to make that?
