| Mr. Ram said that one day he accidentally touched a pot of boiling cooking oil and felt that he did not get burned, so he did not use any kitchen utensils, but only used his bare hands instead. (Source: CCTVNews). |
 |
| Mr. Ram shared: 'Since the day I decided not to use a ladle to scoop up the food, I have not felt any burns, it feels like I put my hand in a normal bucket of water. People who pass by often ask me how I can do this. I simply laugh and say it is thanks to God.' (Source: CCTVNews). |

| However, the simple scientific explanation is the Leidenfrost Effect. (Source: CCTVNews). |
 |
| The Leidenfrost effect occurs when a liquid comes into contact with a surface that is hotter than its boiling point, causing the liquid to create a protective layer of vapor around itself to prevent it from boiling over rapidly. This protective layer lasts for a few seconds. (Source: CCTVNews) |
