Thanks to Joel W. for suggesting this awesome video!

How strong is oobleck? You know that fun corn starch and water combo that sometimes feels like a liquid and sometimes feels like a solid? They explore how strong it is in this video with chainsaws, bb guns, and even a golf ball cannon launcher! This channel, The Backyard Scientist, has some really interesting stuff.

As a bonus, here is the other video they made together, too! How would you survive better if a grenade exploded?...on land or in the water?

When we get to adulthood it's been assumed that we stop growing brain cells. This has been shown to be false. Read the article for more information!
