Well that was a little fun to watch, when i put those orbeez in a bowl, and then heated that bowl from below, a very weird sound started to come, i left it for 2min, the surface which was touching the bowl got stuck there, it was really very hot, so then i took a stick to take it off, and when it was not stuck there, i moved the bowl such that if there was a marble then it should come in a circular motion with respt to the bowl, then what, the orbeez while performing a circular motion made a very wierd sound, that sound was like a machine gun firing with some bombs blasting in between, they dont want to be in circular motion, if u move the bowl slowly then those orbeez will be stuck where they are, for this spinning experiment i took only 3-4 orbeez, and also while spinning those orbeez will tend to jump outside the bowl while u are moving the bowl...
