FedEx Driver Walks on Glass – Spangler Tests Out Science Demo in the Shipping Department
When I started doing magic tricks as a kid, I remember always bothering my sister and brother to watch my latest trick. When they grew tired of my tricks, I switched to grandparents, aunts, uncles… finally anyone who would watch. Thirty some years later, I find myself in the same situation as I’m testing out new ways to present some cool science experiment. Years ago, I hit the jackpot when would wait for the FedEx driver to show up. A question like, “Hey, do you want to see something cool?” is almost always met with, “Sure… what is it?” Over the years I’ve persuaded visitors to our shipping dock to stand inside of a bubble, lay on a bed of nails, walk on top of a vat of cornstarch and water, but this is maybe the best one yet.
Listen to the very last thing Emily says… “UPS guy won’t do it!”

That was great, but where’s the cool science part? Why didn’t she cut her feet? This curious mind wants to know.
