MANILA, Philippines – Can you walk on water?

Normally, your answer would be – you can’t. But the video below will show you, there’s a way – through oobleck.

Oobleck is a simple mixture of cornstarch and water. When you put pressure on oobleck, it becomes temporarily solidThe magic is in the cornstarch. The cornstarch particles clump together under the weight. And voilà! A liquid you can walk on.

Individuals from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia tried it out and found that they could run, play soccer, dance and party. Kids and adults had their chance to walk on the oobleck pool, with one dad even bringing his baby along for the ride!

But not all were successful. Stay too long on the surface and it’s like quicksand– you sink.

Watch the video below and see what stunts people came up with.
