Bending a Laser With a Stream of Water

This is a cool experiment where the scientist bends a laser with a stream of water.  Note its a green laser for all you Star Wars fans :).  All our life we’ve been told that light travels in straight lines.  It can also appear to bend under the right conditions and they show you how in this video.  All you need is an empty water bottle, a screw driver, a laser and a bowl.  Then don’t forget to wear safety goggles and only attempt with the supervision of a scientific professional.  Ok ready?

Check out how they appear to bend the laser in the video on page 2
