This video shows an air balloon in a tank full of water and red food coloring. The round balloon is then punctured by a knife causing a vortex of air to move towards the surface resulting in a subsequent forceful burst of water.

Flow, music, effects, editing, and colors are all amazingly and well done!
I like the set up and the video editing is great! Maybe next time pull the balloon further down so we can see the air bubble travel farther in the water.
Great editing! haha. Fun to watch, ‘impactful’ :P
The dichotomy between the intense music and the video make it very funny and enjoyable to watch. I also like the camera shake when the balloon pops. I think the background could be somewhat improved to make it a little less distracting.
I like how the flow of the water appears similarly to the shape of a mushroom cloud. The video is a bit humorous because of the epic music. Have you considered slowing down the initial motion of the flow?
Music is awesome!! How did you choose the color? Why didn’t your background extend above the surface of the water?
Good music chose! and good timing with the pop. very dramatic. Good use of the build up it sets the scene for the pop.
Great work. the video is awesome. The sound editing is great. great work
The experiment is well-designed. The color contrast is amazing. The slow motion control made the explosion more drama.
This video is awesome! The music added so much anticipation. It is clear and well captured. The color choices also stood out. Great job!
Beautiful editing. The music made it. Very exciting. The burst of the balloon was very exciting and you could really see the flow afterwards.
That was really cool! Dramatic music made the video come together nicely. Amazing that you are able to get such a high quality with just an iphone. Did you have this type of soundtrack in mind when recording the video?
Wow, a really cool depiction of the balloon popping and the added color added to the water helps with the artistic portion of it. I think it could be cropped in a little bit or in a portrait positioning to get rid of the unnecessary bits in the video.
The music is super match the motion in the video. It definitely helps a lot. Nice editing!
I really like the dramatic music to the video. But considering the video itself, it was interesting to see the build up in food coloring and seeing the explosion of the fluid
the editing and angle of this shot was really nice and clean. I like how the ballon pops and the water begins to get red.
The combination of the pop and the music is really great. Really interesting stuff going on with the colors exploding after it pops. Great editing.
The popping of the colors is really nice to look at. The music makes it feel very intense and I really appreciate how well focused this video is. Great editing.
I like the visual editing you did to create the vibrant colors. The music is very dramatic
The music alignment is one of the best parts! I like the way it explodes upwards and shows the colors.
Nice job! The music makes it very dramatic. I like that you used the food coloring to hide the knife. – good job demonstrating the flow of the explosive water.
Great music! It is a well produced video. The flow is awesome.
I really like how reflective the water surface is before the balloon is punctured. The reflectivity blocks out the background until the balloon is popped. The video is well done!
Very cool explosive effects. Enjoy the sound added to the video. The red food die adds a dark effect.
