The Leidenfrost Effect occurs when a liquid comes in contact
with a surface significantly hotter than that liquid's boiling
point. On contact the liquid forms a cushion of vapor that
insulates it from the surface, slowing the evaporation process and
causing the liquid to become very mobile as there is little
friction.

When a surface is far above the liquid's boiling point and the
liquid is dropped onto it, the part of the liquid which first
contacts the surface flashes into vapor. The vapor forms a layer
under the liquid. The liquid is "shattered" into drops by the force
of the suddenly expanding and escaping vapor and by the liquid's
surface tension. The vapor is a poor heat conductor which then
protects the drops riding on top of it. This is called the
"Leidenfrost effect".
