Death by Mentos?


That's the title given to this video clip on YouTube. Thanks to reader Mark L. for sending me the link.







May I suggest ducking practice for the photographer?

That's the first time I saw that with the original sound; Who would have guessed that would happen?

Careful ... the Bumblers At Tobacco & Firearms will classify Mentos as a rocket fuel derivative and make possession without permits a federal crime.

Do you realize what you could do with this? How about getting a class of fearless junior high chemistry 'brainerds' and tell them that this 'experiment' is for their class grade .... :) This picture would be worth a thousand words!

LOL- Ducking WOULD have come in handy...

I think for the sake of going to bed with as many fingers as I woke up with, that I'd grind up the mentos and put the powder into gelatin capsules so I can screw on the lid and retire a few paces before the pressure builds. Fins might be a half-decent idea too!
