NOT letting my kids in on this at 14 and 11 this would be something to do for them and teach their 4 year old brother too .

. I do bet some idiot will now go eat mentos and drink diet coke at the same time though . Won't be me.

Wade, it's like this, the State of Insanity (oopps i meant New Jersey) won't let us play with fireworks so we have to do something to amuse ourselves on the 4th

So tomorrow after work, I'm going to pick up some mentos, a diet coke, and see what if I can make a rocket.

I'm also going to try that cheese in plastic one. It looks pretty cool.

ChuckR · « **Reply #10 on:** July 04, 2006, 12:50:39 AM »

Dubya91 · « **Reply #11 on:** July 04, 2006, 02:57:46 AM »

Won't do a thing...too much air in the mouth. The two liters work because of their shape and contained space.

The smaller the opeing the faster and farther it will move coming out of the bottle. If you can make some kind of pointed nozzel or better yet put your finger over the hole like a garden hose like the video below. Also did anyone catch this aweosme 100+ bottles and 500+ mentos looks like the Ballagio water show in Vegas.

Anyway, this looks pretty cool for a unique science experiment. I'll have to try it out some time

Yup, I tried it tonight. It worked and it was pretty neat, I must say!

WadeJ · « **Reply #17 on:** August 02, 2006, 11:32:41 AM »

The David Letterman segment that had the 2 guys with 122 bottles of diet coke do a complete show was on again last night. It was really cool

overlord · « **Reply #18 on:** August 03, 2006, 06:21:00 PM »

I am going to bust it out tomorrow night so with enough sunshine still, I should be able to capture some pictures if it doesnt get dark...
