[0:00]This teapot was designed to kill you. See, it's called an assassin's teapot and it's used to trick your enemy by pouring yourself a cup first to prove the drink is safe. This works because inside are two separate chambers, controlled by two hidden holes on the handle. If you cover the bottom hole, the safe tea pours out. But if you cover the top hole, the poison is poured. It works entirely on surface tension. If your thumb blocks the air from entering the chamber, the liquid is physically trapped inside.
