Note the cloudy bits around the jet? Its water vapor created due to sonic shock as the jet moves at the speed of sound. Isn't that awesome?
No, I don't stay under the coconut shell (haha) I know that there are jets that can fly at the speed of sound but I am just amazed that the water particle in the air would vaporise due to the sonic shock. Mind boggling to me.
You can try to understand the science, read this.
