Mentos + Coke == Instant death....????

hi guys!!
hey remember we were planning to do that experiment to test what happens when mentos is mixed with coke?? we've heard of stuff regarding someone dying when he drank coke over mentos...
here's an Excerpt from "Surely You're Joking Mr. Feynman"


I often had this problem of demonstrating to these fellas (his fraternity frnds) something that they didnt believe- the time when some claimed that if you took asprin and coke you'd fall faint directly. I told them I thought it was a lot of baloney, and offered to take aspirin and Coke together. Then they got into argument whether you should have the aspirin before coke, just after coke or mixed in the coke.So I had 6 aspirins and 3 cokes, 1 right after the other. First, I took 2 aspirins and then a coke, then we dissolved two aspirins in a coke and I took that, and then I took a coke and 2 aspirins. Each time the idiots who believed it, were standing around me, waiting to catch me when i fainted. But nothing happened.





any one wanting to try out the same with coke and mentos????

While i appreciate Feynman's courage, he only had to contend with the fact that he might faint while with mentos its the case where i might blast!!! So i am not ready to do this in my stomach but i think next time we meet we should definitely try this in the coke ka bottle!!! (mereko pankaj ke video ka yaad aa raha hai!!!)
