I was introduced to this video while making composite ice pucks with my class. We started with three circular plastic containers. The first was plain water, the second was water with newspaper strands in it, and the third was water filled with sawdust. We stuck the containers in the freezer and I promised the students we would be testing them the next day. One of my best nerds raised his hand right before the bell and asked if anyone had heard about the aircraft carrier made of ice. Needless to say, it was the topic of conversation for the rest of the class and the students were begging for the video the next day.
