Custard is best, it's a non-Newtonian fluid. You can run across it when it's not frozen.

Cool, but when presented with a frozen lake, why not go swimming?

Way too big to do that with the movements of a few people. The sheet of ice was about 200-300m across. Think about it, not a lot of pressure could be exerted on the edge of it touching the edge of the reservoir, or the ice would just snap. Consider walking across a huge sheet of glass supported at the edges. It would snap easily. 99.9999% of the support must come from the water, evenly, all the way under it.

I knew that about water and cornstarch, but not about custard. Interesting.

They tend to be cold for some reason.

Ok, yeah -- at that size I would not expect the weight of a few people to matter much.

You've just made me imagine 7 people on a small piece of ice running back and forth arguing about balancing and falling in.

Why not just use your killfile? It's really quiet up my end.

Why is that a problem? The human body is self regulating.

Water apparently becomes a bit like that at very high speed. Alledgedly if you hit it fast enough it becomes more solid than you expect. Yet divers have dived from a lot higher, perhaps you have to pierce it with your hands.

I watched some of the absurd Kobra Kai show and they had two kids balancing on a road wooden platform on water... learning to anticipate how the other would move or some such nonsense.

Cool!.. But....
Why so much safety gear? And why didn't they just wade into the water to do it, or use a proper boat?

Sounds like the team player bullshit activities they have for companies in the UK.
