This is pretty awesome. But there are two things I wonder about: 1) It was under water. My guess is that the water around remains cool, and can maintain a high temperature gradient. -I suppose that's why they say it works best underwater. I want to see what happens in air. Cold temperatures might be better? 2) We are looking at the sheet edge-on. I wonder if a shirt of this can just make you look skinny, but not hide you completely. Ooh fashion industry!
