Is it possible to drive cars and bikes over water?
On youtube there are some videos of cars and motorbikes actually driving over deep water. I was just wondering if this is actually possible or even real, because they could just be driving over very shallow water. I have given the link to one of these videos to help you.

Thanks.
I mean without using floats or something like an outboard motor.
This is COMLETELY POSSIBLE. Infact, the video you linked to does show a car being driven over water. The reason this works is because the car’s tyres exploit 2 physical phenomena.
Firstly, the tyres a quite large and full of air – this lends an upwards force exerted by the water on the tyres called bouancy. The Force is upwards because the tyres are less dense than the volume of water they occupy.
Secondly, the car is travelling very fast, so the tyres are spinning very fast. There are big ridges on the tyres, and these smack into the water very quickly and with a great amount of force. This exploits the non-ewtonian properties of the water, meaning the surface of the water can exert a greater reaction force on the tyre than normal. This is because the water is noncompressable, and it is being smacked into with such force that the water around it ‘doesn’t have time to get out of the way’ to allow that part of the water to move.
These two forces act upwards, and are equal in magnitude to the weight of the car, which acts downwards, Hence the car remains on the surface of the water.
For more info on non-newtonian fluids, try a google or youtube search.
