Leidenfrost jets
A sub-millimetric jet impinges on a substrate heated above the boiling point of the liquid. Under specific conditions - determined by the jet radius, substrate temperature, and the impinging angle - a ``Leidenfrost jet'' can be observed, bouncing off the surface. Surfing on its own vapor layer, this jet rebounds without making any contact with the heated substrate.
