Science Behind Hallway Swimming Videos

In england, do they swim on the left side of the lane?

I live in England and we circle swim like the Americans do.

Someone tell me the different between hot ice and dry ice ?

Hot ice is a mixture of Baking Soda and Vinegar .. warmed up.
You get CO2 given off as a gas .. and a solid that looks like slushy ice
that rapidly expands
.. and it's HOT.

Dry ice is frozen Nitrogen.
As it warms up it turns back to a gas without going through a liquid stage
that's why it's called ''dry'' ice
.. and it's VERY COLD.

Neither would make a swimming pool colder
but dry ice would produce a lot of 'smoke'
and would 'boil' in the water producing a 'volcano of bubbles'.


EDIT .. I've just comeback to this question because I realised I'd put Nitrogen
and not Carbon di Oxide for dry ice.
billruss ... is right. Ignore the thumbs down.
