It depends. Where I live, tap water is so full of minerals that supercooling a bottle of it would be very difficult. However, some places have quite pure tap water, which means that this trick isn't too difficult to reproduce.
Can do this with almost any drink, I accidentally left a bottle of cola in the freezer and it made instant slushi when I opened the cap. Far too many self proclaimed PhD's in here so here's a little excerpt from an actual scientist (not me).😊 "It isn't the pressure drop directly, because you can give an upper-bound estimate to how much cooling the pressure drop directly does based on the observation that the pressure is not more than a few atmospheres. That means that space the gas in the bottle gets multiplied by a factor of, say 10 (that's too big), and (kT times) the entropy gain per atom is kTΔS=kTlog(10) and kT is 1/30 eV, so you get at best 1/10 eV per gas atom. The density of gas on top is 1/300 the density of water, and the maximum total cooling from expanding that gas is negligible per atom of liquid. There is no significant cooling and heating in compressing a liquid, since essentially no work is done in the process, so the pressure drop does nothing to the liquid. But the pressure drop makes the soda supersaturated with respect to its dissolved CO2, and this CO2 is outgassing from a liquid state to a gas state, and this is a huge gain in entropy. By outgassing the dissolved CO2 into bubbles, each CO2 atom gets a 300-fold increase of available volume to roam, and this can cool the liquid by kTlog(300)≈14eV So you get .25eV per released CO2 molecule, which is comperable to the binding energy of a water molecule. So each outgassed CO2 freezes order 1 H2O, and this freezes a network of filaments of water around the outgassed bubbles, making a slush."
@@fakefenicks I’m not fighting you on this I’m just saying if you haven’t tried this trick it takes many tries if you just want a quick slushiee this take days to make.
I used to do it at work with a grape Gatorade, I’d slap it against the door frame when going out on break and it would do this every single time without fail, was amazing on 38°c days.
It is, ice needs an impurity in the water to start forming the ice. Banging the bottle causes bubbles that act as that impurity. Yes other drinks will work if they are clean enough. Also, its the same with bubbles in fizzy drinks, a completely clean glass won't allow bubbles to form, it needs an impurity for the bubbles to form on. If it bubbles, the glass isn't clean but you can't get a glass clean enough for it to not form bubbles.
Not true, only possible with sodas and things that are either extremely pure with no particulates or things that have a lower temp then most freezers go like coke.
@@NebulaHatesWatchdog please note that "regular" water can differ tremendously depending on where you are in the world. If you would for instance use Dutch tap water it would probably work but it may change depending on the country you're in.
I am not sure, many of them contain impurities that ignite the icing process (source: a lifetime of "forgotten waterbottles in the freezer" and they always turned to solid ice, without exception, but never tried fiji)
Correct, I've done it with soda, water, fruit juice. Hell I've had it where it was liquid and turned to ice as i poured it. My freezer can do it in about 2hrs.
Depends on what your tap water is like. Different places will have different amounts of other minerals in the water. The purer the water and the cleaner the bottle, the less nucleation points for the ice crystal and the easier it is to supercool rather than freeze
Excellent example of how even when you did your own experiment to confirm, you can still be duped if you made an assumption at the start. Fiji water is just like all water.

Suggestion: If your winters get below freezing, do it outside, and stay outside when turning it into instant ice. That way the water bottle won’t turn foggy and you can see it freeze much better. If not, keep it in the freezer when you shake it (however this might also get in the way of seeing it).

“Pure water that it stays liquid under 0 deg celsius.” In chemistry, the more diluted an aqueous solution is with another compound or element, the lower the freezing point.
This!! If water is freezing below 0°C that means it's not pure and has solutes of some kind in it (mostly minerals or other solids like salt). Pure water should always freeze at 0°C, it's the reference point for the Celsius scale in fact :)
But this is a different thing. The pure water freezing point is 0 deg C, but if it is so pure it does not have any core where the condensation and hence the crystalition can start, then it can't freeze. But when a condensation core forms, then the whole water freeze. Its called super cooled water.

I suspect this short is “sponsored” by Fiji… No need to be that gentle, just dont hit, or shake. The important thing the degree water reaches and can be achieved with any brand of water, not specific to Fiji. Thank you all for the likes 🙏 🙇♂️.
It can’t be sponsored without saying #Ad because that’s against the law for the fact that the IRS can’t track your taxes and how much you make if you don’t say so.
No-one drink this shitty brand that steals water from the people of these islands. Go google it. They are a garbage company. Go drink Jason Mamoa’s water
I once had a bottle of water in the fridge and when I started pouring it in my glass to drink, it formed an ice mound. It was totally unexpected and I've never been able to recreate it since.
I doubt it’s sponsored, but the first time I saw someone try supercooling back in the day was Veritasium and he recommended Fiji because of its purity. Doesn’t mean it’s the only drink that can do it, but it’s easier to achieve with purer water and Fiji likely gained more of a reputation for that after that video.
You can do this will apostle any drink, if you also pore it out on something else that is frozen, it will turn into a slushy tower thing and instantly freezes also.
They actually have vending machines in Japan that do this for you, you buy a bottle of coca cola and once you open the bottle the liquid turns into a slushie before your very eyes
@@chasemiller7974 Why does it have to be spelt differently from distilled, and not have been shown to mean that when I searched the word on Google, and looked for the definition of the word on a website that retains words if it means that?
You can also do this with soft drinks or even beers... Its a state of supercooling (ie the temperature is sub zero) and impacting the bottle creates a nucleus point for ice to crystallise from. Far easier in glass bottles as they regulate temperature more slowly... Although risk of breaking!
Wrong. You actually need to supercool the water, and get it *below* 32. Right at 32° it's just barely at the phase change threshold and this won't happen.
Sorry what’s wrong with this? Supercooling is a very real phenomenon. And it depends on having high purity water. Don’t mistake “at odds with my limited understanding” with “bad logic”
Doesn't have to be Fiji, literally can do it with any liquid. I used to do it with Popsicles all the time. They just have to be freezed for a specific time, long enough to be cold but not long enough to freeze
@@simonfinnie2900 if your water is a suspension with enough particulate to not freeze like this, you have much bigger issue than your ability to create “instant ice”
@@simonfinnie2900 How about this. You’re just going to have to take my word, but I’m going to try with some tap water in a old coke bottle or something and report my findings here.
This has nothing to do with Fiji water. Seems like an advertisement, don’t forget, your breaking the law bye not revealing your sponsorship with them. All drinks do this, has nothing to do with purity, or anything of the sort, your bringing the drink to the point right at freezing, then causing a state of change by smacking the bottle. Literally can be done with any drink….
To be fair if he was advertising he would show Fiji with it’s label. Mike Boyd is, no offence, pretty gullible sometimes so he probably just believed only Fiji could do it and never tested it with other drinks.
All drinks?... No not all drinks. Any purified water though, as long as your freezer isn't so cold that it freezes regardless. And by purified water, a good bet would be distilled or deionized

@@aleyagold I only put it in the freezer for a few hours. Putting it overnight will definitely freeze it. Maybe it's because my freezer works on full and is basically my mini Antarctica. But a trick is that if you lift a bottle of warm water and a bottle of this type of water, this bottle will be heavier because it is very close to becoming ice and shaking the bottle basically disrupts the "environment" of the water, freezing
It's not just fiji water that does this. I've done it with tap water. It's all about the water being the right temp and yes like you said u have to be gentle untill you want to jostle it to make it turn icy.
I accidentally got good at this. I’d always forget to put enough bottled water in the fridge, so I’d stick a couple in the freezer when I refilled the fridge, knowing I’d want cold water again in about 3-4 hours, which is, coincidentally, how long it takes my freezer to get the water right in the range for this effect
I'm from Fiji 🇫🇯 Happens with any other "bottled water". Visited the actual plant where they get the water. Really nice and natural area but the same as any other.
I used to work at an Office Depot before I quit because my family and I were about to move. The fridge there was pretty terrible since it froze quite a few things, causing them to explode. A customer brought a large water bottle to purchase, I don’t recall the brand, but it wasn’t Fiji. The bottle was already frozen. I told him to grab another, and it wasn’t frozen, but as soon as he set it down on the counter, it started freezing in front of us. Then I found a 3rd bottle for him, and it was just water, yay.
It definitely sounds unnatural in England! Maybe more common in Scotland But he also often wears American baseball caps, so maybe he just likes US culture
My bro just told me about this yesterday, when i took a bottle out of the freezer. The water felt powdery inside, but i couldn't do the trick...i drank it :(
The late Grant Thompson (AKA king of random) did this many years ago, and he showed you could do it with pretty much any bottles drink. Like you said, just need to be careful handling it, and each drink has a different critical point, so gotta figure out the right length of time for your drink and also freezer type
I remember one time I was tripping on acid and it was really intense cause we just took dabs and my home boy was freaking out so I remembered I had a water in the freezer and I thought some ice cold wawa might bring him back so I go to grab it and it instantly froze In my hand shit felt like I had super powers afterwards
This happens all the time in the winter out at our cabin. We have a case of cheap bottle water out there almost constantly, around 65% of them will do this for us
If it doesn't freeze at exactly zero, it is a sign of an impurity (other ingredient which isn't mentioned) and it is usually said that Fiji water in particular is not very pure
God bless you and Jesus loves you so much that is why he died for you. He rose from the dead 3 days later and by putting your faith in him as lord and saviour you will be saved. Be blessed!
Even Faucet water does that lol. I don't know how it happens but it doess because I've seen it couple of times. What I meant here is that you don't need Fiji Water for this advertising bullcrap.
This has nothing to do with Fiji water being "pure", works with tap water as well.
Supercooling water is easier if it's free of impurities. Tap water may not work everywhere

This happen because the water is already cool enough to become ice but the molecules has not found yet a starting point of the "cristalization", so when hit/shake the little air that is in the top make his move and act like an starting point for the instant icing, that's why do you see a cascade effect.

I suspect this short is “sponsored” by Fiji…
No need to be that gentle, just dont hit, or shake. The important thing the degree water reaches and can be achieved with any brand of water, not specific to Fiji.
Thank you all for the likes 🙏 🙇♂️.
It can’t be sponsored without saying #Ad because that’s against the law for the fact that the IRS can’t track your taxes and how much you make if you don’t say so.
No-one drink this shitty brand that steals water from the people of these islands. Go google it. They are a garbage company. Go drink Jason Mamoa’s water
I shake and it works fine
I once had a bottle of water in the fridge and when I started pouring it in my glass to drink, it formed an ice mound. It was totally unexpected and I've never been able to recreate it since.
I doubt it’s sponsored, but the first time I saw someone try supercooling back in the day was Veritasium and he recommended Fiji because of its purity. Doesn’t mean it’s the only drink that can do it, but it’s easier to achieve with purer water and Fiji likely gained more of a reputation for that after that video.
When he said that Fiji water was so “pure” that it could do this, I actually wanted to scream
Freezing point depression does not exist to him🥲
Fiji drinkers: OmG oUr WaTeR iS sO pUrE aNd cOMes fRoM moUnTAiNS
I'm assuming they said that to get more comments
You can do this will apostle any drink, if you also pore it out on something else that is frozen, it will turn into a slushy tower thing and instantly freezes also.
They actually have vending machines in Japan that do this for you, you buy a bottle of coca cola and once you open the bottle the liquid turns into a slushie before your very eyes
There is Also alot of these in danish amusement parks and other summer destinations
I’ve seen machines next to Coca-Cola refrigerators that also do this in some Canadian convenience stores, so I’m assuming it’s relatively common.

This isn’t specific to this water brand. All water and most liquids.
does this include piss
@@djcatboy6979 would you really put piss in your freezer though?
“This video is sponsored by Fiji”
Do some research before spreading misinformation.
It’s soooo good too 😫😫😫
You can also do this with soft drinks or even beers... Its a state of supercooling (ie the temperature is sub zero) and impacting the bottle creates a nucleus point for ice to crystallise from. Far easier in glass bottles as they regulate temperature more slowly... Although risk of breaking!
Supercooling is lowering the temperature of a liquid below its freezing point, not necessarily subzero.
@@thefuzzman neat me to it, 0c, is only the freezing point of water at 1 atmosphere, other factors such as impurities can affect this as well.
This is possible with all water. It's not about overnight or whatever. It's about getting it to basically precisely 32°F
Wrong. You actually need to supercool the water, and get it *below* 32. Right at 32° it's just barely at the phase change threshold and this won't happen.
Yeah I was like bruh whaaaaaaaa
@@jeffslagle5357 For me 32 degrees is a hot summer day

Yes, it IS so cool!
“Apparently fiji water is so pure that it stays liquid below 0c”. Logic left the chat
Literally
Sorry what’s wrong with this? Supercooling is a very real phenomenon. And it depends on having high purity water. Don’t mistake “at odds with my limited understanding” with “bad logic”
youre the perfect example of understanding smth only 50% and thinking you know everything
The freezing point of water is -4 and the impurities sometimes decreases or increase the freezing point

FTFY
Doesn't have to be Fiji, literally can do it with any liquid. I used to do it with Popsicles all the time. They just have to be freezed for a specific time, long enough to be cold but not long enough to freeze
Impurities makes it hard via the mechanism of how this works. So suspension are alot harder to achieve this with
@@simonfinnie2900 if your water is a suspension with enough particulate to not freeze like this, you have much bigger issue than your ability to create “instant ice”
@@owenstockwell4807 just not true. It takes very little impurities to make supercooling basically impossible
@@simonfinnie2900 just how impure is your water, cause unfiltered tap water, soda, and juice all work
@@simonfinnie2900 How about this. You’re just going to have to take my word, but I’m going to try with some tap water in a old coke bottle or something and report my findings here.
This has nothing to do with Fiji water. Seems like an advertisement, don’t forget, your breaking the law bye not revealing your sponsorship with them. All drinks do this, has nothing to do with purity, or anything of the sort, your bringing the drink to the point right at freezing, then causing a state of change by smacking the bottle. Literally can be done with any drink….
To be fair if he was advertising he would show Fiji with it’s label. Mike Boyd is, no offence, pretty gullible sometimes so he probably just believed only Fiji could do it and never tested it with other drinks.
All drinks?...
No not all drinks.
Any purified water though, as long as your freezer isn't so cold that it freezes regardless.
And by purified water, a good bet would be distilled or deionized
@@nani0001 He literally said the brand and showed it with the label right at the beginning. He took the label off to get a better shot of the effect.

I have literally been doing this with regular water everyday since it's summer started and show it to my parents like ✨magic✨ they even tolerate this everyday. Bless them
How do you prevent it from turning to solid ice when freezing it overnight? Im so confused or…. Im dumb lol
@@aleyagold I only put it in the freezer for a few hours. Putting it overnight will definitely freeze it. Maybe it's because my freezer works on full and is basically my mini Antarctica. But a trick is that if you lift a bottle of warm water and a bottle of this type of water, this bottle will be heavier because it is very close to becoming ice and shaking the bottle basically disrupts the "environment" of the water, freezing
I remember first time watching this on The King of Random. RIP Grant
I can relate. Rip KOR
everybody gangsta until somone drinks it and you punch their stomach
bruuuh this short made me remember that i forgot my coca cola in the freezer F
i remember when this first happened to me on accident i thought i was literally magic
It's not just fiji water that does this. I've done it with tap water. It's all about the water being the right temp and yes like you said u have to be gentle untill you want to jostle it to make it turn icy.
I accidentally got good at this. I’d always forget to put enough bottled water in the fridge, so I’d stick a couple in the freezer when I refilled the fridge, knowing I’d want cold water again in about 3-4 hours, which is, coincidentally, how long it takes my freezer to get the water right in the range for this effect
this is possible with any liquid using the same concept, thanks for giving Fiji some more exposure☺️

It was so cold, the fridge was a heater.
I'm from Fiji 🇫🇯 Happens with any other "bottled water". Visited the actual plant where they get the water. Really nice and natural area but the same as any other.
This reminds me of a The King of Random video that came out a long time ago, I think it was called how to make an instant slushy
I thought the title says “Making Instant RICE” 😭
That's some cursed rice.
Tried this with a boost sports drink, it worked
My drink isn't cool enough, hold up lemme just **smacks bottle against the table**
I used to work at an Office Depot before I quit because my family and I were about to move. The fridge there was pretty terrible since it froze quite a few things, causing them to explode.
A customer brought a large water bottle to purchase, I don’t recall the brand, but it wasn’t Fiji. The bottle was already frozen. I told him to grab another, and it wasn’t frozen, but as soon as he set it down on the counter, it started freezing in front of us.
Then I found a 3rd bottle for him, and it was just water, yay.
I’ve done this with a normal bottle and the ice is so weird it’s like slimy slush
I've been able to replicate this by leaving a snapple in the freezer for 5 hours and it worked first try. It also worked for me using core water.
"That was so Dope" lol I never heard a british person say dope before.

The late Grant Thompson (AKA king of random) did this many years ago, and he showed you could do it with pretty much any bottles drink. Like you said, just need to be careful handling it, and each drink has a different critical point, so gotta figure out the right length of time for your drink and also freezer type
I remember one time I was tripping on acid and it was really intense cause we just took dabs and my home boy was freaking out so I remembered I had a water in the freezer and I thought some ice cold wawa might bring him back so I go to grab it and it instantly froze In my hand shit felt like I had super powers afterwards

Why? People like you need help.
Apparently water from my garden hose is "so pure" I can do the exact same thing...
If it doesn't freeze at exactly zero, it is a sign of an impurity (other ingredient which isn't mentioned) and it is usually said that Fiji water in particular is not very pure
It actually has to do with btu measurements not ionized water
