While observing the enigma box, I noticed that once all 450 liters of water were poured in, it all started 2 gush out. Secondly, i noticed that during the whole time, the tube dripped drops of water. Next, I observed that I could hear the water filling up in the box after the 1st pitcher of water. Finally, I observed that
I think that in the inside of the enigma box, the tube is layed sideways with a tiny "plug" in it. I think that once enough water gets into the box, the pressure pushes the plug aside, and it all rushes past. This would explain why water slowly drips throughout the whole process. The "plug" can't hold ALL of the water, so it slowly leaks by.
What was actually going on inside of the box was simple!! The tube was wrapped in a circle around the inside of the box. It starts with the open end of the tube face-down at the bottom of the box. The tube then moves upwards and loops around back to the bottom of the box. The other open end of the tube is fed outside of the box. Once enough water was poured in to fill the tube to the top, it ran back down the loop of the tube and out the side. The air pressure inside pushed the rest of the water out.
