Subject: Что вы слышите?
Всем привет,

Помогите, пожалуйста, не могу понять то, что я расслышала на границе слов (см. ниже выделенное слово с вопросительным знаком). Слышу 'to' между  comes  и  pouring   off, которого там не может быть. А вы что слышите?

"... coconut ice cream which is prepared using liquid nitrogen. So they pull out this frozen coconut with coconut milk from this little bin and then they pour liquid nitrogen on it. And it’s pouring all this smoke off. This kind of... it's/its vapour, I suppose, comes to? pouring off and you hold this coconut ice cream and you have all this vapour everywhere. That was quite far out..."

нет там "to". 

просто переход от "s" к "p".

Aiduza: ** нет там "to" / просто переход от "s" к "p" ** +1

"comes pouring off it, and you hold this ......"

There's no 'to' in "comes pouring off it", indeed it wouldn't make sense here.

It could be either "it's vapour" or "its vapour" here, as both would make sense.

'far out', as used here, is a colourful, informal term for 'strange'/'bizarre'/'weird'. It was used a lot by hippies in the 1960s -- for example, when referring to the effects of certain narcotics -- and has remained part of the language ever since. They also sometimes used it to mean 'excellent'/'fantastic', but I don't think it has that meaning here.
