Freezing soap bubbles

–15°C

Makes me want to try this out and then pick up the bubble. So cool to see that it doesn't pop on impact. I guess the cold air makes it more difficult to pop because the outside layer is in the middle of freezing? I'm not a science nerd so I'm just assuming that.

Now here's a question...
Since water expands when it freezes, shouldn't these bubbles grow slightly?
But since water freezes, that cools down the air inside, which decreases its volume, shouldn't these bubbles shrink a little?

Ask a cute physicist.
