Silly Putty, the weird bouncy rubbery thing that became a bestselling toy in the second half of the 20th century, has some weird physical properties. It's a non-Newtonian fluid, which means it sometimes acts like a liquid and sometimes like a solid.

Instead of bouncing back up, it shatters like glass and makes a crashing noise. |
