Traveling Water - Sick Science! at Steve Spangler Science. Magic Rollback Can - Sick Science! at Steve Spangler Science. Forces and Motion at Steve Spangler Science. Egg Drop - Newton's Law of Inertia at Steve Spangler Science. Warning: Always wash your hands well with soap and water after handling raw eggs. Some raw eggs contain salmonella bacteria that can make you really sick!

Fill the large drinking glass about three-quarters full with water. Center a pie pan on top of the glass. Place the cardboard tube on the pie plate, positioning it directly over the water. Carefully set the egg on top of the cardboard tube. With your writing hand, smack the edge of the pie pan horizontally. Take It Further! Try setting up a tray (like one that you would get from a fast food restaurant) on top of five glasses. Credit for this one has to go to Sir Isaac Newton and his First Law of Motion. Also, according to Mr. Floating Paper Plane - Sick Science! at Steve Spangler Science. Balloon Expansion - Sick Science! at Steve Spangler Science.
