If we take in count the lot of physics laws that are been broken in that video. I don't think it can be possible, so there must be a good job on the video editing. Anyway, as Godzilla said, it was fun to watch!
Thank you!

Very good joke, and well made.
...I can only imagine how many houses are much cleaner because of this video.

I believe it can be done with NLP (Non Liquid Physics)

When I was young, whenever my father and I would go to a restaurant and get bad service he would leave a cup of water upside down like that with 3 pennies in it. It might have been a jerk move, but there have definitely been times when I wish I had a card myself. I HATE bad service.

If you're going to do something like that, you should put in a good tip. Make them want to make the mess.

That was cool. I am thinking of a method now. I can think of one that is practical, but not doing the splash at the end. I will work on it. Nice link and effect. Thanks!

You could have a another smaller glass inside like an insert with a hole in the bottom (top when its upside down) and when you pull the other cup off the excess water would spill out a bit and drip down the sides?

Great clip! It reminds me of a lot of what we see nowadays on TV with the magician doing an actual (explainable) effect and then they add camera trickery at the end to add the 'non-explainable' part. David Blaine, Criss Angel, and Derren Brown do this

Wow! A guy at work actually told me about this this morning. I told him no way could it be done. Not so sure now. It looks real!

Wow, that would certainly be a sign to waiter!

As much as I had hoped there was some type of unknown element/chemical involved to make this possible I assumed it to be C.G.I. If you watch it in high def slow motion you will know the answer to if it's fake or not.

A second glass wouldn't work as the light refracting through glass (plastic, etc.) and water would mean the glass will be clearly seen.

with special effects.

Griffindance, depends on the lighting, the material of the insert and how thin it was maybe?
I agree it's CGI but want to try recreate a similar effect.
One idea I had was a disc with a thin skirt of cling film like plastic, the water tension might keep it steady till you tapped it?

This looks really good. He knows how to sell the fakery I think. If I were a bit younger I would have started practicing.

I don't think it can be done either.....
So, Vick, what do YOU think?
What if the Hokey Pokey really IS what it's all about? 
My neighbor rang my doorbell at 2:30 a.m. this morning, can you believe that, 2:30 a.m.!? Lucky for him I was still up playing my drums.

It can't be done. If you slow it down, you can see the editing. Cool to watch none the less.

I've just noticed that when he 'touches' the water, he doesn't!

In Quantum Physics, you CAN actually suspend water molecules in a temporary form using a high energy electromagnetic field. This phenomenon has been observed around electromagnetic fields...of course I'm pulling all this out of my butt. Great fake! But it's something to think about and creat a cool effect that is similar.

I've also just noticed that when he lifts up the glass it is in fact INFRONT of the aleady formed water. I still love this clip, I WANT to believe it.

The glass isn't full to the "bottom" either and the water left behind is the shape of the bottom of the glass.

I'd still like to know how he got the water to look like it did.

The use of Sony Vega, using the floating water video effect. Clever though.
