he has this powder and a fishtank full of water, he would pour this powder on top of the fishtank, and he could put his hand into the water and it not get wet. Its not surface of the water that gets you wet, not the water.

This is the first one I had in mind. In fact, it's the only Mr. Wizard experiment I remember clearly.

i loved the one where they were freezing stuff in some kind of liquid nitrogen or something and then smashing it with hammers. i remember various types of fruits being smashed into pieces like they were glass. i need to grab the dvd's.
