Bellagio Fountains Recreated with Mentos and Coke

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the truly-a-worthy-expenditure-of-time dept.

Trip writes "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. It's a hysterical and spectacular mint-powered version of the Bellagio Fountains in Las Vegas."

    Are they doing this anywhere near ants?


    I don't think ants would be very interested in diet coke... it's sugar they like, and diet soda doesn't have any. Perhaps they would go for the Mentos though... nobody likes an ant with bad breath.

    I don't care if it's 90,000 hectares. That lake was not my doing.

    For years, the big oil companies have been withholding a Mentos/Coke powered car from market... ;)
