Water Flowing UP a Cliff to 24 metres, with NO PUMP! This Simple Experiment in 1995 Pulled Plug On 300-Year old Law Of Physics, Yet has been ignored by many scientists, doctors ever since this historic event took place in Devon. The theory behind this video is based on sound fully repeatable model and gives us for the first time a sound common sense understanding of the driving force behind the very essence of life. I believe I have discovered the primary source of circulation in humans, animals, trees and plants. Gravity provides all of the power.
The Experiment:
Consists of a single length of 6 mil bore strong nylon tube, filled with pre-boiled water. Both open ends are immersed in two large water filled bottles at ground level. 10 millilitres of coloured salt solution was added to the centre of the tube, which was raised on a rope and pulley to the height of 24 metres.
Result:
As the centre of the tube was raised, the salt solution begins to flow down one side causing one bottle of water to overflow while the donor bottle water level falls as water travels from one bottle up the suspended tube and down the other side into the recipient bottle. The Video is unedited since the event and provides accurate timescale for the suspended fluids remaining actively circulating inside a tube suspended more than double the limit thought to be possible for a liquid to exist under such tension.
Explanation:
This simple Flow and Return System must exist wherever evaporation takes place from a liquid that contains substances denser than water! A tree for example evaporates almost all of the water drawn through the roots from its leaves in a process called transpiration.
Evaporated water does not contain salts or sugars, so these substances MUST be concentrated to some degree at the leaf. Gravity pulls the denser or concentrated sap down, represented by the 10 millilitres of salt solution in the experiment. The downward flowing sap generates a positive pressure in front of it and at the same time a negative tension behind it, which is powerful enough to lift less denser fluids in adjoined tubes, represented by the salt free side or rising side of the suspended loop of tubs shown in the video.

Yep, if water lacks microscopic bubbles, it cannot boil. (Lifting the hose is essentially trying to trigger some vacuum-boiling.) This is similar to microwave superheating of water which causes an "explosion" when a touched by a spoon.
Water's internal tension is pretty large. If no bubbles exist, then large negative pressures are possible. I wonder what might be the theoretical limit for lifting distance?
Goes to show you can't trust everything you read in a science book.
