Why is this type of ice dangerous even though it looks solid? "Candle ice" or "rotten ice" forms when water freezes with air, dirt, or other particles in it. The result is not solid ice but rather a hollow, honeycomb-like structure. As it melts, it breaks into small, fragile columns. Although it may appear strong, it is actually very fragile. This type of ice cannot support weight; walking on it is risky.
