Non-Newtonian fluid would be fun, but the Jesus run would get banned after the first season.

It depends on the force being applied and how still the fluid is still, but it’s certainly plausible. Think of oobleck (cornstarch and water). Hitting with enough speed and force, the surface will act like a solid

Ketchup is a non-Newtonian fluid and I’m pretty sure that wouodn’t work Oobleck might though.

someone posted a video, replying to me, of people doing it with oobleck… it’s not very deep but they do run and ride a bike across it.

It would be interesting swimming in diesel. Or mineral oil

Edit: on second thought, the diesel vapours works probably kill you

That’s what makes it interesting. It’s a race to see who can go the furthest before having to exit the pool to breathe.
