Were some of the black and white films on Bill Nye real?

[edit]

The Soviet one where a guy demonstrates seawater is not good to drink by harvesting some with a glass and spitting it out was fake right? Was the one with liquid air or toy cars or explaining evaporation real or just filmed in the 90s for the show? Sagittarian Milky Way (talk) 23:43, 30 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I don't remember well but I have doubts it was really a Soviet childhood science education or comedy clip from the 1950s or 60s. Sagittarian Milky Way (talk) 02:28, 31 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
