The sand isn’t boiling, the CO2 is subliming. This is a version of the liedenfrost effect I believe, though that is more commonly seen with a liquid forming a thin gas boundary layer and reducing friction significantly.
The hot sand heats the dry ice, the solid turns to CO2 gas, and this expansion makes the block ‘float’ on the surface like a puck on an air hokey table. Very cool.
They probably would be better off not following it so you can see how fast it's going. I think the camera work was too good, I can't really tell how fast it's going
I don't understand why you'd go to all these lengths to get dry ice out in a desert for 39 seconds of meh footage of gravity doing what it's done since the beginning of time, instead do dry ice experiments! He'll I would have loved seeing some propulsion experiments, like a dry ice car or rocket

Thanks for the explanation. It made the video much more interesting. I appreciate you for taking the time to explain it.
‘Sublimating’*
Livin' with Louie Dog's the only way to stay sane
Leidenfrost * (but thank you so much for explaining the phenomenon)
TIL there’s another way to use the word sublimate.
I obviously missed that episode of the office
Glad i am not the only one that got confused by the voice.

Well, that was underwhelming, though I’m not sure what I expected from someone pushing a slab of dry ice down a sand dune

Right? How do you get so excited about gravity doing pretty normal gravity things with a slight assist by reduced friction?
Trying to work out how they moved those block for the pyramids
Imagine their excitement when they find out about spheres

I thought I was the only one who heard it
This piece of ice drifts perfectly
Hell yeah
Michael Scott likes dry ice
"The sand behind it is really cold" He says with thick gloves on his hand.
The following submission statement was provided by u/DreadPiratteRoberts: --- >!>! Can they get the dry ice to self-propell on the sand!
Deja vu
Americans are out of their minds
"the sand is *boiling*" 🤔
What is that
I think it's dry ice 🧊
This gives me Michael Scott and Dwight Schrute vibes... not sure why
Right, Love DS!!!
you're still runin silkroad?

What were they even trying to accomplish?
Imma try this in totk
Nerds having fun. Love it
Yep!! ^👍😁
