Diet Coke and MInts (Cool Waste of Time) Coke + Mentos= FUN


A fourth of July substitution for fireworks. Check out these fountains. OK Hatch kids if you are reading this don't get any ideas.

This is for all the diet coke fans out there. What happens when you combine 200 liters of Diet Coke and over 500 Mentos mints?

Requires Quick Time to view. . . . . . Melanie, my challenge is for you to do this at 1 of your wild parties.

As a side note for the site:

So is it dangerous to drink soda and eat Mentos? Well, a lot of the fizz goes away as you drink. Then when bubbles are released in your stomach, your stomach can expand a bit, and it also has ways of releasing excess pressure. Do not, repeat, do not be stupid and test the limits of your stomach. Don't even think about it!

One of my co-workers did this as a demonstration during Take-Your-Child to work day. I think that he said that it works for any carbonated beverage, but Sprite worked the best. I definitely think we should try it. Maybe for 4th of July....
