2 Liter Bottle Tornado

We've had this contraption floating around our classroom for a few weeks now, and it sure does provide a lot of entertainment!

Materials:
2 2-liter bottles
1 1" washer
masking tape
By swirling the top bottle it creates a vortex and then a tornado funnel appears.
This link has great information about what is happening, and how to make your own!
