My dad stumbled across that a couple week's back,It's really cool if your fast,trying to drop a shitload of mento's into a pop bottle is hard,Something on the outter coating(hard shell) of the mento's is what make's it react.btw if your going to try this,use diet pop,Wearing and or cleaning up regular pop is a pita.

i ran accross a vid awhile back of some guys, they would put the mentos in the bottle then throw it on the ground. the cap would pop off and the thing wourl rocket through the sky for a good ways... ill see if i can find it again.

I read that Coke is pissed about this because it doesn't fit their image, while Mentos is happy as hell because their experts figured it out to be like 10 million dollars worth of free advertising.

 

[FastEddy]

The Mentos part is easy but how do you get the seagulls to drink the Coke?

 

[hb1111]

[greenwing7]

It's really cool if your fast,trying to drop a shitload of mento's into a pop bottle is hard

From the video:

200 liters of Diet coke
500 mentos

Doing the math says you only need to drop 5 mentos per 2 Liter bottle.

Cool Vid Candyman!!!

We don't allow drinks to be on the floor at my office, but if we did I'd be all about dropping mentos in peoples drinks.

I tried 5 mentos and it didn't work quite like i wanted,so i dropped the whole friggin roll in there and i wore diet pepsi,The soda rocket's outta the bottle quicker than i moved.As long as you get a complete roll into a 2 liter all at once,the better it works,I think the record distance for height was 20ish feet,I got about 7. It's really cool if you know how to react.


By the way,Dropping mento's into a can of pop doesn't work,need's to be bottles for it to look really cool and shoot out,Dropping mentos into a can just make's it foam over,same result with a glass,but with a glass you can see the reaction.

Did you drill the holes in the center of the mentos?



My wife loves to drink diet coke, I'm saving this one for the fourth of July barbecue.

 

[Candyman]

Dude, 1 word.....VIDEO! That includes the part where she kicks your ass.

 

[Got Nitro?]

LOL YEAH VIDEO!!!!!!

No i didn't drill hole's in the mentos,I just tookem outta the package,Unscrewed the cap,and slammed all of them in there.Just make sure your not as stupid as i was,and stood over it while dropping the mentos in.

 

[sweetdiesel]

I will take video for sure, including the beat down. lol

 

[WoodiE]

I just did this at work in the back parking lot. I only used 6 mentos and we got probably 5-6 feet out of it. We're going to try it again with a whole roll and see what happens.
