haha man thats awsome. I've done that b4 w/ some friends, but it wasnt as good.

We just put chewed mentos on the bottom of the cap and then threw it. Wondering if you did it different.

Hm chewed mentos, that sounds like a decent idea actually, never thought of that. That would help them stick to the cap...well we actually just threw them in the bottle and tightened it REALLY fast, lol we got pretty good at it too. Actually if you put rock salt in it makes the reaction even stronger and faster, perhaps if we could get little bags and put mentos and rock salt in at the same time it would be even better, lol but at that point you might as well just go get some explosives, haha

Dont try it. if you've seen mythbusters, its the surface of the mentos that makes the reaction. there are microscopic holes in the mentos which the carbonation gets into. if chewed up, it doesnt work.

[Anastasios912]

Oh yeahhh forgot about that, I actually saw that episode. That's where I got the salt idea...works like a charm. I think I'll try that idea with mentos and rock salt...maybe use tissues so it'll break apart quickly. Like I said before I really wish I had more resources at my disposal...namely actual explosives, lol but being only 17 and having strict parents that's not going to happen any time soon.

I think if that hits your head you can be dead...

[Anastasios912]

...well seriously how dumb could you be to stand in the same place for what? Like 5 seconds so that it could hit you? I doubt that would kill you any way, maybe a concussion (depending if it hit you cap side or bottom)

that doesn't work. the texture of the mentos alone is what makes the chemical reaction. mentos' surface has microscopic holes which caffine bubbles in thus makeing the carbonation in the soda to reverse back into it's original form so theres tons of C02 in it. basically, small holes-BOOM
