High viscosity silicon oil is sandwiched between two circular plates. As the upper plate is lifted at a constant speed, air flows in from the sides. The initially circular interface develops finger-like instabilities, due to the Saffman-Taylor mechanism, as the air penetrates. Eventually the fluid will completely detach from one plate.
