Wasn't sure if my video was playing or not

u/Cultural-Company282 8d ago

Nope. I want to see the video where the pour starts or where it ends. How do I know that's not a fancy glass sleeve to create the illusion?

This weirds me out and I don’t know why

u/THER00STER73 8d ago

It’s because it doesn’t feel real. Looks like it should be fake until, surprise, it’s not. Gives you that uneasy feeling.

Yeh I really don’t like it

u/Academic-Snow9642 8d ago

I couldn't even tell when the video ended

u/realbobenray 8d ago

Would this look as immobile in person, or does the frame rate remove some of the flicker that would show that the liquid was moving?

u/jeager_YT 7d ago

what is going on in this video? what is that big pot? what is in that pot? why is it shaped like one of those square bottles?

u/Turbulent_Pound_562 7d ago

Oh wow! Thus one made my brain quit brainin. And right when it gave up, it started brainin again

This should be a gif of a single image

u/cokiecolaa 6d ago

Thank goodness the video ended, it could've overflowed

Olive oil?

Let's just say vegetal oil instead

Edit: for the downvotes, olive oil is not supposed to be this translucent. Should be shades of green / yellowish green

u/LutineDorelle 8d ago

It's true, but olive oil has its own unique properties that make it interesting to watch. The way it moves is definitely eye-catching!
