    Well, that design was found at the Lions Club Expos when I was a kid. Don’t know about that particular installment though.

  2. Captain Ron says:

    You can also see it at most Ripley’s museums. *Yawn*

  3. WOW says:

    The installment is a big pipe being covered by the water. And dissapearing by the white wash pressure being forced downwards contiusaly.

  4. Kai says:

    You can buy a smaller version at most Spencers. I thought it was pretty cool.

  5. Young boss says:

  7. Manda lynn says:

    ive seen little home versions of this. A friend of mine had an “endless beer bottle” It used the same idea as this fountain. It was pretty cool

  8. Rj says:

  12. Des says:

  13. kiki says:

    welll basically everyone answered it what i was going to answer, but I want to say it anyways ^_^ the water goes down and in the inside the water goes up and i found tht at the ocean city maryland ripleys believe it or not museum

  14. (:-# says:

    You can find one on Lanzarote. I believe it is made by the local artist Cesar Manrique.

  15. ??? says:

    Its really cool, and i know that there is a pipe holding this tap beneath the presaure of the water coming down. Its simple, water goes up the pipe and comes back down around the pipe looking like the tap is floating and letting out loads of water…
    I wouldn’t like to be underneath that pipe!

    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.

  17. hfhrtytry says:

    cool

  18. gjsmo says:

    There’s usually on at the NYS State fair. It’s not as good though – you can kind of see the pipe.

  19. Captain Obvious says:

    Thanks for giving me the answer 50 million times…

  20. salmon says:

  21. Rosy says:

  22. Laura says:

  23. Tay says:

  27. tony chekino..italian mafiaa says:

  29. Ajacks says:

    I guess everybody’s been to OC, MD cause thats where i’ve seen it too. The water covers the pipe a lot better in this pic though.

  30. XJR says:

    I’ve seen this in Belgium in Germany.

  31. kada says:


    wo this amazes me, and i had 2 reed sum1s comment and know i am mad cuz i know how it works

  32. Xybelle says:

    I’ve seen those at various waterparks in the US. They’re pretty cool.

  33. Danielle says:

    i saw one of these on my holiday in tenerife at the water park, a thick white pipe is hidden beneath the flow of water supporting it

  34. Dave Rattigan says:

    There used to be one at Blackpool Pleasure Beach in England. Not sure if it’s still there. Last time I saw it was probably 10 years ago.

  35. Caleb Dewberry says:

    its taking the moisture out of the air and all that moisture is coming out of the pipe, and its coming out with so much force that its supporting the pipe in midair? just kidding

  36. REYANA says:

    theres a glass pipe where the water in flowing and it sucks in the water then spits it back out. it stands in the air cuz the glass pipe is stuck to the swimming pool or whatever it is.

  37. Bobsta says:

    i saw a huge one of these in Minorca

  38. muni says:

    pipes hidden in the water? ye all are disbelievers, tis a divine tap! and the water flowing from it is HOLY WATER! Twas put there to symbolise the strength and importance of water on this land.

  39. Mike says:

    yea, I’ve seen one of those smaller ones of those. It has a pipe in it.

  40. Belinda says:

    Theres a huge purple one in a museum on Phillip Island here in Victoria, Australia.

  41. illusion braker says:

    i’ve seen this, stick your hand in and u can feel a pipe going all the way up

  42. kris from england says:

    theres one of them in menorca

  43. Gman says:

    its not photoshop or anything. they had soething like this at the Ripleys exebit. There is a perfectly clear pipe in the center with water running up it. It comes out at the top and flows down the outside of the pipe. Since the wole thing is covered in water, you can barley see the inside, making it look like just water

  44. jess says:

    That’s in Duinrell, in holland…?

  45. Anonymous says:
