Make: Online : 200 liters of Diet Coke and over 500 Mentos mints

200 liters of Diet Coke and over 500 Mentos mints

This is getting out of control - "What happens when you combine 200 liters of Diet Coke and over 500 Mentos mints? It's amazing and completely insane. The first part of this video demonstrates a simple geyser, and the second part shows just how extreme it can get. Over one hundred jets of soda fly into the air in less than three minutes."

That's the funniest thing I've seen in a while - and a good performance piece!

Thanks for the link guys! As I suppose you might guess, I'm a huge MAKE fan. I've been talking it up to everyone I meet for the past six months -- ever since my brother gave me a subscription for Xmas.

(I'm the taller one on the left in the video.)
