I noticed a dripping noise on the carpet and after a couple of minutes of ignoring it noticed that the ceiling had drooped and had a hole in the middle of the distortion. We had to call a plumber and poked a larger hole in the sagging ceiling causing it to drip into a bucket faster and afterwards got the whole ceiling replaced.

Whether its drywall, wood lathe and plaster, or drywall with a plaster coating, the paint and plaster would be cracking due to the stress of that bulge. If it's between the wall and the paint, even if its latex it wouldn't hold. Water may not feel heavy in a glass in your hand, however by the looks of how many litres of water being held there, come on. Too much stress to look normal. This is fake.

The water from a leak above was, as Matt A. suggests, held by a layer of latex paint. How paint could have the tensile strength to hold that volume of water without rupturing, I can't say. I was shocked to find myself standing there starkers, looking at just this kind of enormous, surreal bulge from above. Oh, and Matt, a friend and I did indeed hold a large bucket beneath it and sliced the end with a box cutter. Whoosh! Same thing happened to the ceiling in the shower at my previous residence.

I'd suggest grabbing a bucket and poking a hole in it to drain the water.

Several water valves leaked in my house and created this effect in my downstairs water-resistant latex-based ceiling paint, but on a smaller scale. My drywall did not collapse, but where the water did soak through the drywall, the paint pulled away from the ceiling and created a hanging pattern similar to this. The reason why his paint job has not collapsed could be due to extremely durable latex-based paint or several coats of paint. IT MAKES PERFECT SENSE. THIS COULD VERY WELL BE REAL.

The air conditioning leaked above my room and as cool looking as it is, it is NOT FUN. It was right over the smoke detector, which started making these scary fizzly beeping noises, then water started dripping really slowly, water torture style. And the bulge made the wall look organic, like something out of a Cronenburg movie. Also, to get the water out my dad had to poke the bottom with a stick and then run so it wouldn't get on him. Oh ick! The air conditioning leaked above my room and as cool looking as it is, it is NOT FUN.

Mine disinigrated and killed everything I had downstairs. Horray for drywall! :) As someone who is just recovering from a flood caused by my upstairs bathroom, I can easily say that I would totally prefer this than what happened to my ceiling.
