The video which was posted in 1st June shows bubbles coming out of a leaking water tank that is filled to the brim. It is assumed that the bubbles were due to water supply pressure in the tank. However, this video has 81.47 lakh views and 89,000 likes so far.
Internet denizens were quick to react to this post with hilarious memes, jokes, and sceptical comments. A user commented, “I think it’s an overflow of water from the tap connected inside tank. Technically, this white tank will reflect heat, will the water gets heated to 100 degree Celsius (Boiling Point of Water)? But, it’s a possibility, considering the Rock & Sand gets very Hot.”
Another user said, “Abki baar 50 paar.” A third user remarked, “since when water shifted its boiling temperature from 100°C to 50° ??” A fourth user wrote, “My whole life was a lie they told me the boiling point is 100°C.”
A user shed light on the impact of climate change, which has led to extreme weather conditions such as severe heatwaves and floods. He stated, “For the very first time, we are seeing these extreme impacts of global warming and climate change. This is the right time to do bring country wide changes in terms of afforestation and the suggestions scientists suggest, else we are doomed.”
