splash was filmed from below the water's surface. The camera
looks upward toward the undersurface of the water. The drop
height remains unchanged. Backlighting provides greater
contrast to visualize underwater portions of the splash. The
initial impact of the drop produces a hemispherical depression in
the water prior to forming the column. Just before the
column fully collapses, two bubbles of air form under
the column. One bubble is much smaller than the other,
and this smaller bubble travels further underwater.
