Been there, done that...
It's still 'cool' to see, though (in more ways than one).

Unfortunately, it is impossible to distinguish the water in this video from water that has been supercooled at normal atmospheric pressure, since it would be have in a similar fashion. Although we just have to take their word that it is at the triple point, it is still cool nonetheless :)

it’s simple!
The triple point of a substance is the temperature and pressure at which three phases (liquid, gas, and solid) of that substance may coexist in thermodynamic equilibrium.
For example, at high temperatures and increasing pressure, water results in first liquid, and then solid (above 109 Pa - a crystalline form of ice which is denser than water begins to form). At lower temperatures the liquid state ceases to appear with compression causing the state to pass directly from gas to solid.

The fridge that I bought for college actually does that to my water bottles if I leave them in there for about a day. Pretty cool, huh?

That is really cool. See little kiddies, science can be cool.
