A harmless prank clogs somebody’s toilet with a slimy green ooze. A little salt reverses the effect and the gel becomes flushable.

WARNING: This video is for demonstration and entertainment purposes only, and is not intended to be duplicated. Be warned that results may vary. Do not place cotton diaper wadding in the toilet as this will swell and can potentially cause damage. Use specific water crystals only, and test in a cup before experimenting with a toilet. Use of video content is at own risk.
Project History & More Info:
This effect was achieved using diapers, food coloring and salt.
For this experiment I collected the super absorbent crystals from 5 of our baby diapers, and mixed them into the toilet water, along with a few drops of green food coloring.
Please note that only the crystal power was collected from the diapers, and not the wadding.
Within minutes, all the water became a slimy green ooze. I wouldn’t recommend trying to flush the toilet at this point as it could cause clogging and overflowing of the toilet bowl.
The effects can be reversed with salt.
When I learned that common table salt could be used to reverse the retention effects of “super absorbent crystals”, I experimented in a glass first, then tested it in a toilet.
I was very pleased to see that after adding the salt, within minutes, the gel had converted back to a liquid that was harmlessly flushable.
