The Mexican Wave

4 For this experiment, you will need;
  • Ten or more friends

Stand in a straight line, side by side.  The person at one end starts by raising their arms quickly above their head and back down to their sides.  As soon as the person next to them sees them do this they also raise their arms above their head and back down by their sides and so on.  The Mexican Wave is passed down the line in the same way that a Transverse wave travels.
