My Christ. This is real life. What a time to be alive.

Is everyone science ignorant? Flame can't transfer heat near as effectively as you imagine. The snow was clearly melting on the surface but snow insulates quite a bit as it's full of air. Then the water soaks down to the bottom part of the snow ball. I could clearly see this in the video.
Take a garden hose and turn on the water. It's just water from the city that has a temp of around 40 to 60 degrees F. Hose down your drive way at that temperature where the snow can be formed into snow balls. That's the point that the snow is still not cold enough to be powdery and can easily melt. The water will transfer it's heat through the snow rapidly and melt it.
Or, spread salt on top of the snow on a sidewalk. The salt will lower the melting temp of the snow and cause it to melt rapidly. This guy is science ignorant as well as having a poor observation ability.

I swear I saw this video (or one like it) 10 years ago or so.

I think that’s what happens when snow bypasses the liquid stage and goes right to vapor because of the heat.

It's called sublimation, but water doesn't sublimate in atrmospheric pressure.

It is evaporating immediately (not sublimation). The pressure / humidity / temperature must be right enough to cause this. You can see the water glistening on the snow, but doesn't have time to drip before evaporating.
E: Oh fuck, I'm yellow now. Not wonder all the options look fucking different. I thought it was this subverse or whatever. Whelp, about time for a new account.

I'm yellow now
Is there an explanation to all the colors somewhere? I missed orientation.

"Sublimation is the transition of a substance directly from the solid to the gas state, without passing through the liquid state."
Water can do this but not in standard atmospheric pressure (14.7 psi)
611.66 pascals = 0.08 psi
That ice/snow ball would have to be in a vacuum to evaporate like the video. The real question is can you see water dripping from the ball? Maybe it's wicking off into his hand, I don't know.
