the first one is BS, at the 3rd cup, if you watch closely, you will see the ammount of water rise up 1/2" before he fills the next, that gave away the obvious sign of "turn the camera off, fill it up, turn it on" and keep everything else perfectly still while doing it.


The 2nd one, i will try that :D

It is either a plastic sheet, or a chemical reaction (vinegar & baking soda type).

It's very easy, get some cups that reflective/frosted on the outside, put in a clear cylinder filled with water in each one.

The glass one they guy is using milk in the first glass and you look very closely to each glass as he pours it becomes watery and you can almost make out the cylinders inside. When he goes to refill the other glass with the real big one thats when you can really tell its watered down milk and can easily fill the rest because he is filling up in between the cylinder and glass which is probably half of the actually glass size.

Is that the correct answer?
