#2 It's Not What You Would Expect
Now here's something we have always wondered. What would happen when two extremities of nature were to collide against each other? What would happen when the blazing hot met with the icy cold? What would happen when lava meets ice? Luckily for us, scientists wonder the same things that we do. Scientists who aren't afraid to experiment and play with fire, or lava in this case.
"Our first guess about what would happen was that was that the lava was going to explode or tunnel down through ice, melting a hole," says the geologist and Professor Jeff Karson. He was pleasantly surprised when it didn't do either of those things. The video was put up on YouTube by the science channel and it was taken from the TV show 'Outrageous Acts Of Science'. Being a TV show the team has its own research team and panel of experts. This research team will answer any and all questions you might have. Just go to the video on the next page.

When the super heated molten rock hits the ice it actually moves across it, creating beautiful bubbles.It's like a natural way of glass blowing. See for yourself what happens when two forces of nature collide.
