00:00For our first activity, iBeliebers, we will create a diorama.

00:04What is a diorama? Is it like what mom watches on TV?

00:10That's different. This is not a TV drama.

00:14You're so cute, mom.

00:16This is not a diorama. This is a diorama.

00:20What?

00:21Diorama.

00:22It means a miniature 3D model or a small representation of a scene.

00:27Like this dessert.

00:29Let me see.

00:31This dessert is a diorama.

00:33A miniature dessert.

00:35Wow! It's so beautiful.

00:38But there's something missing.

00:40These are cacti.

00:42See?

00:45Wow! Our dessert has a character.

00:48It looks more real.

00:51There!

00:53And because it's Year of the Snake,

00:55here it is!

00:58Yes!

01:00Oh, no!

01:02That's so scary, Chris.

01:05Don't be scared. This is just a game.

01:07Made out of clay.

01:09Because it's Year of the Snake,

01:10let's put it here.

01:12It's in the front.

01:14Chris, did you hear what Mik-Mik said?

01:16What did he say?

01:17He said he's not scared.

01:19So that means you're ready for more trivia.

01:22Of course!

01:23Perfect, Mik-Mik iBelievers!

01:25Stay tuned for more trivia about Zebra!

01:28That's right!

01:29We'll also learn more about Pikas.

01:33We'll also investigate the mystery of Quicksand.

01:36Quicksand?

01:37All of that when iBelieve returns!

01:45Ta-da!

01:46Chris, what's that?

01:49Is that Quicksand?

01:52Very observant, Mik-Mik.

01:54That's not Quicksand.

01:55It's called Ublek.

01:57Ublek?

01:58That's not black.

02:01Ublek.

02:02Not Ublak, Mik-Mik.

02:05Ublek.

02:06Yes, it sounds like Ublak.

02:08Ublek.

02:09Mik-Mik, do you think it's soft or hard?

02:12I think it's soft.

02:14Maybe it's soft.

02:15Okay.

02:16Ate Shaira, please do the honors.

02:17Let's see if it's really soft.

02:19Take a good look.

02:21That's right.

02:22I'm right. It's soft.

02:24It's soft.

02:25Ate Shaira's fingers are drooping.

02:27But, wait.

02:30Do you know that it can also be hard?

02:32I saw that it's soft.

02:35It's really Chris.

02:37I don't believe it.

02:38Look at this.

02:39To see is to believe.

02:40That's right.

02:41Ate Shaira, try to close your fist and then punch it hard.

02:43Okay, Mik-Mik.

02:44Just the blue one, not the glass.

02:45One, two, three.

02:47Oh, it's hard.

02:49How did that happen?

02:52See?

02:53It was soft earlier and now it's hard.

02:55Because Ublek is a non-Newtonian fluid.

02:58Huh?

02:59Nano?

03:00Nano?

03:01What is that?

03:03It's a non-Newtonian fluid.

03:06That's what we call things that look like liquid

03:08but the density of the fluid changes

03:11when you change the temperature.

03:12Or like in our experiment,

03:14because of pressure.

03:15Pressure.

03:16Oh, right, Mik-Mik?

03:18Ublek is like a liquid when it's at rest.

03:21The pressure is low but it's solid

03:24when there's a strong pressure here.

03:26That's right.

03:27And would you believe, Mik-Mik,

03:29that it's just water mixed with cornstarch

03:32or what we call gawgaw.

03:34Wow, that's amazing.

03:36Right?

03:38And do you know what else is amazing?

03:40What?

03:41The next trivia about Zebra.

03:45And how it's made.

03:49Wow!

03:50So don't leave...
