'Der Explodierende Pudding'. Presented in German, at the Technorama Science Centre, Winterthur, Switzerland.

'Achtung!' Preparing to launch a water rocket.

Plastic bottle travelling at 100 miles per hour. Audience still looking at launch position...

The pressure drop has formed a dense condensation cloud inside the bottle.

Making a condensation cloud by squeezing and releasing a bottle containing water, air and a tiny trace of smoke.

In a British secondary school (ages 11-18). A stick helicopter flies out above the audience.
