Yeah thats really something, actually amazing. The discovery channel once had a episode on Mythbusters that had did the same experiment with the mentos in coke and discovered that the dimples on the mentos create a nice way for the carbonation to be caught or something. They tried it without the dimples and it didn't react explosively. I myself have even tried to come any where near this experiment because of the waste of soda, but is something I really want to try. Something even more cool you may not of seen are http://www.spikedhumor.com/articles/32945/...entos_Show.html and http://www.spikedhumor.com/articles/19865/...s_and_Soda.html Check it out, see what you think, its something I would of never thought of doing.

You mean you only just found out about this? There are videos of people doing it EVERYWHERE! Just checkout yootube or something and you'll see...
You may like to know that after Mentos found out about this, they we're very pleased! They want everybody to try this expiriment so they can use it as an advertising campaign! But Coke Ltd doesn't agree... they say the drink is for drinking and not expirimenting on. |

Coke and Mentos are a very tasteful combination anyways. It's scary to know this though. You wonder what else like this could happen wit food and drink combinations. I can see how Mentos would be happy and Coke wouldn't be. Mentos is a smaller organization, while Coke is known everywhere and very popular. It's always fun to experiment with this kind of stuff.

this experiement has become the latest fad for kids to muck around with and do. it is quite a cool thing to see. some of them go 10 or so metres up into the air. very impressive. i am yet to do it myself though.

Looks like fun, but what a waste of soda! Obviously some people have way too much time on their hands. I wonder what sort of surprise the first person to do this got? I would have liked to have seen it!
