X-ray an egg? I’m not sure this is the right phrase to describe this trick – but oh well, you can make an egg somehow transparent by just using a candle(actually fire) and water. First off, light up the candle. Then hold the egg above the candle and make the whole egg black.
After that, place the egg in a bowl of water – you will then see the effect. I haven’t try it yet though. You can see what it’s all about in this video.
I host this new video player and video on my own server. How’s it, better than YouTube’s player? It’s actually a good flash player, but too bad – with the plugin I’m using with it, it’s doesn’t support extra function. I will try to get a better one near future. If you are wondering where I steal this video from, it’s from MetaCafe.

hi… when you wash eggs by hand you have to use hot water because the shell is porous and the air is vented out with the hot water and any contaminates do not go into the egg. eg bird droppings… the shoot is sucked in by the reverse action when the egg is placed in cold water and the soot is sticking to the egg inside… i think this is what is happening and after washing thousands of eggs . i think it is right… cheers …
