A physical impossibility, fill a glass or beaker with ice add water until a membrane forms (the effect of surface tension).

Make a bet with an envoironmental agitator.Wait till the ice melts and water level falls. Collect bet.

As Winston Churchill said "Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing has happened."
