Can Mentos and Diet Coke really kill you?
March 14, 2010 by: nickadminMany people used to think Pop Rocks and soda could kill you. That has been disproved already, but what about Mentos and Diet Coke? I mean if you watch the videos online you can see some truly amazing results. So could eating them at the same time actually kill you?
Also Myth Busters only did it with a pig stomach. It would be different with a real person. I mean couldn’t some of the foam shoot up and get in your lungs or something?
Well, On Myth busters I saw an episode and they tested it on a pig’s stomach. It wouldn’t really kill you although there have been stories its happened. I woudn’t recommend it.
Absolutely not. Not only has Mythbusters covered this with Pop Rocks and soda, but Snopes investigated and proved this false a long time ago. You can read about it here —–> http://www.snopes.com/horrors/freakish/mentos.asp
Try it.
no but it will give you a stomach ache i also saw in myth busters .
no you wont die unfortunately
not really sure why, i guess couse your stomach wont hold enough coke to get a really good expolsion
does give you burps and gas though…..
I’m not sure they kill you, I know they explode, I’ve don’t it myself.
It isnt I just drunk mentos with a Diet Coke both with mentos first and then again with it after i drunk it and the last I put the mentos in the Coke only results was stomache ache and I tasted what I ate last.
