    I’ve seen that before, but it’s still awesome!

  3. GmanX says:

    It works because it has a clear plastic pipe in the middle of the water flow, holding up the structure, and pumping up water which is then forced out creating the illusion that it is floating in mid air, but you just see through the piping.

    There is also a simular version to this in West Edmonton Mall, Alberta, Canada. In the indoor waterpark there is a childrens area which features this “invisible tap”. It’s funny to watch the little kids stare at it in amasement…

    Proof it doesnt pay to treat people like idiots:

    To Quote ‘Frappo’, comment no.16-
    “Quote Age: ’simple it has a pipe within the stream and saports the top…’

    Translation: This trick is simple. The saucet is being supported by a pipe hidden within the stream of water.”

    SAUCET??? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

    You take the trouble to publicly embarrass someone for their spelling, yet you cant spell your own Americanism?

    Serves you right, smart alec.

    I saw a tap very similar to this on a school trip to Belgium in 2006, but i have no idea where about it was. Does anyone know, thanks :)

    There’s another version of this using a sculpted clear tube that turns mechanically. It looks very real, without using any water at all.

  13. Mari says:

    One of those is in Finnish amusement park called “Särkänniemi”. We had fun staring at it with my friends…

  14. Cait says:

    I saw this at Ripley’s Believe It Or Not in Williamsburg,VA. But it was a smaller version. It had to fit indoors.
