Jamaican runner Usain Bolt, the current world record holder for the 100-meter sprint, ran 10.4 meters per second.
"This is what the so-called Jesus (basilisk) lizard does." "However, if they could run fast enough, each time one of their feet slapped the water surface that would provide an inertial force from the water, and if they retract their feet fast enough before the water collapses, they could continue with the next foot," says Lauga, who has studied how snails can drag themselves across a fluid surface.
Nor does running into the water on a curve do anything to support their weight. Hoax Alert: An underwater bridge is responsible for these apparent water-walking abilities. It means each shoe should be a mile long and a mile wide." If you put numbers in, you find a contact-line perimeter of 12,000 meters long. The surface tension of water is gamma = 0.07 N/m. "Say these guys weigh 200 pounds and call g the acceleration of gravity. "This would only be true if the force from the water-surface tension on the shoes is enough to support one man's weight," says Eric Lauga, assistant professor of mechanical engineering at the University of California, San Diego. The video claims that special water-repellent shoes allow you to stay on top of the water. But given the video's immense popularity, we wanted to explore the biomechanics of walking on water. Finally in early June, outdoor brand they were behind the viral video and that an underwater bridge was responsible for the effect. Viewers wondered if it was possible, while scientists insisted it was a hoax or publicity stunt. An Internet phenomenon, "Liquid Mountaineering" has received well over 4.5 million views on YouTube. Ever wondered what it would be like to walk on water? A few sporty Europeans showed us what it might look like in a popular video launched last month.
