      @@ralph3333 I’m not a physicist but gravity is doing its thing here and so is surface tension but I’m pretty sure its the coriolis effect that’s twisting it around the string in the same ways it spirals the water around the drain hole. I would think it shouldn’t matter if gravity is a stronger force as the coriolis effect wouldn’t exist if that was the case, perhaps 🤷🏻‍♂️

    I think the water "stays on that side" at the end because it wraps to the bottom and doesn't have enough energy to fight gravity back up around the other side of the thread and sort of centres on the string instead.

    This reminds me of something I was playing with in my own kitchen sink this morning: I have a demitasse that I can actually empty by running water into it while upright under the faucet. It only works if I let the stream catch the upper inside of the cup, where it then careens around the bottom of the cup and streams back up the other side, pulling all the water that was already in the cup out with it.

    It doesn't look like it's twisting around the thread lower down, more that it's "swinging" back and forth from gravity since the thread isn't plumb. So less corkscrew, more serpentine.

    One time when I was filling a bucket having a flat rim, I was startled by water dripping off on the opposite side from the faucet. It turned out that some of the water from the faucet was landing on the rim, forming itself into a tube via surface tension, and transporting itself all the way around the rim via laminar flow, seemingly defying conservation of linear momentum.

    Look up the research that was done by Viktor Schauberger. I think he explains this phenomenon. I vaguely remember him doing lots of research with water and other things of nature. He invented a lot of things that were based of biomimicry. Created an efficient pipe design that was basically a twisting vortex pipe that mimicked the way water naturally twist which dramatically reduced the resistance of water flowing through it. I think he also created an impeller that was super efficient. I can’t recall completely, I guess I’ll need to look him up too, but this instantly reminded me of the work he did.
