Water that has frozen and, ever-so-slowly, folded itself at the bottom of a slide. Have you ever seen this before? @BackTnature pic.twitter.com/43KwQCEOBQ

This is amazing! I wonder if the ice was very thin and just at the freezing/melting point so that the ribbon could fold but not break? Ductile deformation at the surface of the Earth! Great stuff!

That phenomenon itself is rather common, but to fold to that extent is -really- rare. The 'snow-sheet' on a slide or on any inclined metal surface usually breaks after 10-30 cm of sliding over the edge.

Yes! At the earth's core-mantle boundary. I always described it as honey being poured, but this is much better. nature.com/articles/natur… pic.twitter.com/5oyvNNm0Ny

I wonder if it contains microplastics.
