    mythbusters actually did this one last month i believe. it's one of the new ones. it's a thing of beauty. funny, my sisters in law both have great senses of humor AND drink diet coke. heh i just really need to actively remember. =3

    and it's not going to space, though it CAN go pretty high. and it IS very awesome to watch.

    Hmm.. So if I had a diet coke on me, then poped a few mentos in my mouth...then took a sip of diet coke. And had no idea of this thread...what would happen?

    Anyway, I totally support there Idea, then we can launch small mammals into space...in diet coke..

    diet coke is just the most potent is all. pepsi will still do it, just not to the 30ft mark you can go with diet coke.

    A guy I work with downed 2 liters of diet coke and one and a half packs of Mentos before falling over and writhing on the ground. He got a bad ulcer and almost burst his colon. But most importantly, he let out the biggest, wettest fart you can imagine! He left a stain on the ground, no kidding.

    Obviously, you've never worked at Boy Scout camp for eight weeks straight.

    it's a combination, and the amount. the mythbuster episode tries them one by one.
