What Do Raindrops Really Look Like?

The video explores the true shape of raindrops, debunking the common teardrop misconception. It explains how surface tension and air resistance affect raindrop shapes, resulting in forms like spheres, burger buns, pancakes, and parachutes. Wind tunnel experiments simulate raindrop behavior, showing how they flatten and break apart as they grow larger. The video concludes that raindrops are more like pancakes and hamburgers than teardrops.
