It's not tar, but it is some deliciously thick and sticky slime!

Maybe a little off topic, but given the gooey tar-like characteristics of the slime... like mud in the tub, only stickier!
The other less topical pics/vids of more shallowly spread slime are on umd (https://umd.net/forums/my-dirty-30-year-in-review).

If anyone is interested in the ingredients, according to the YouTube page for "Slime Bath 1", https://youtu.be/PDXauleO2XI :

This slime is made from glue mixed with a combination of borax and liquid starch, colored black with regular craft paint. It took over 40 gallons to fill the tub to the brim.

I'd really like to see you first going into the tube full of tar and begin to sink / wallow.
How much has it costs to fill that bathtube with this slime? :roll:

We prefer to use clear glue (http://www.ssww.com/item/color-splash-clear-glue-GL583/). With discount codes, it can get to around $10/gallon. To a limited extent, you can add water to increase volume, but if you add too much, it might start to dilute the stickiness of the glue. Of the 50 gallons, about 9-10 gallons are from extra water. Borax and liquid starch aren't that expensive - maybe figure $15-20. It would probably be ok to do 30% water without messing with the consistency too much... so, let's say 35 gallons glue + 15 gallons water = $350 + borax/starch/tarps/sheeting/inflatable pool/etc... This stuff's not cheap, but it seems to keep indefinitely. Some of the slime of that batch is from last summer!!

Alas, it's probably only a dream to have a pit of this stuff deep enough to truly sink in.
