You know, I wasn't sure whether it was a water jet or not, since that's used to cut through STONE. So, it's likely that the wheel was being cut in half prior to it tearing apart.

The ones used to cut through stone and steel typically have diamond "sand" muddying the water. At least the one at my local machine shop does. I'm guessing the one in the gif is straight water.
