We know that the only way to keep any liquid in its container is to ensure that it stays upright.
However, Steve Mould has discovered a new liquid which defies gravitational laws. Check out the bizarre behavior of the liquid in this video:
The liquid is a polymer named polyethylene oxide. Polyethylene oxide is made from long chains of molecules allowing it to pour itself out of the containers without being tipped over.
So next time someone shows you this self-pouring liquid as a magic trick, you know what it really is!
