Mpemba Effect: Freezing hot water in the air

This beautiful sight is what happens when hot water meets freezing cold temperatures. It is known as the Mpemba Effect.

The Mpemba Effect is the name given to the observation that hot liquid freezes faster than cold under similar conditions. It is achieved by throwing hot water into the cold air often overhead creating superb photo or video opportunities.

This video of the spectacle is from the town of Schleiz in Germany from February 2020 when temperatures dropped to a bone-chilling -18C. Isn't it incredible?
