Pitch -- A drip that lasts a lifetime

Ever heard of pitch? (No not that kind of pitch you fool)

It is a material that was once used to waterproof boats and is the subject of an experiment in Australia that has been going for 77 years.

Get this, pitch is 100 billion times more viscous than water.

Check out the experiment here.
