Amid a frigid cold front in Grand Prairie, Alberta, a mother and her son embarked on an experiment on January 13 involving a steaming bowl of ramen noodles exposed to sub-zero temperatures, a video of which had gone viral.

This challenge has taken the online world by storm, leaving many wonder what makes this experiment so captivating.

The videos kick off by obtaining a pack of ramen noodles. Following the conventional cooking process, the person takes the bowl of ramen outdoors and, with the aid of chopsticks or a fork, lifts a generous portion of ramen into the air and then attempts to make it stand or pose with the assistance of a dumbbell, jar, or any heavy object.
