Anyone actually ever tried this? I can't believe it works, it's just as they say, in the video comments:

What happens when you combine 200 liters of Diet Coke and over 500 Mentos mints? It's amazing and completely insane.
Insane really is the only description i can find!  ;D ;D ;D

Hey, thanks for screenshotting it. I knew it would need something more interesting than my vague description but I was too lazy to spruce up the post. ;)

I haven't tried this yet but I do very much intend to!
