Water flow trick on two sides of the Equator. I think it's fake.

Excerpt from the series Long Way Down, Episode 5, starring Charley Boorman and Ewan McGregor. There is this guy claiming that moving 20m up or down the equator influences the circulation of water flowing out of a pan. I don't know how he does it, but I think he is cheating. The change in the Coriolis force would be so tiny even on a perfect sphere (one in a million), that it is impossible to have any influence on the water. The imperfections of the bowl, and his hand movements are certainly more relevant.
