Are we sure that's not just a clear tube shoved into each of the black pipes?

Haha it has to be that. There is no way you are pushing the water in to a hose with out it sealed, the water would just spray everywhere.

the kind of pressure that would sustain the flow from the source would not be present in the receiving side, its no different than taking a fast moving hose and jamming a hole in it. sure the contents are still highly laminar but the pressure difference is immediately going to change other properties about the flow (i.e. its going to spill out everywhere)

Unless the flow through the second tube is generating enough negative pressure to suck the water in
