COCA COLA CONSUMPTION + MENTOS = DEATH ???

Actually this is old news, I think it was in 2006. The period was circulated on the mailing list if you drink Coca Cola and eat Mentos candies can cause death like that happen to a boy in Brazil. Reportedly the boy was killed after drinking Pepsi and Mentos candy and eat together.

So what happened when Coca-Cola's merged? Look this video!




Look again!!



After seeing the video you do not rush to decide that the Coca Cola + Mentos same cause of death. You read duku explanation that I took from priyadi.net

If you put Mentos into a bottle of Coca Cola, there will be a blast. Coca Cola (or any soda brand) containing compressed carbon dioxide, confined by the water molecules attract each other. Under normal conditions, the carbon dioxide released into the air would be difficult, because to break the surface tension is the energy required. When inserted into a bottle of Coca Cola, Mentos candy to melt and break the surface tension of this. In addition, the Mentos surface is composed of many tiny holes. This is a gathering place for carbon dioxide molecules. When Mentos is inserted into the bottle of Coca Cola would be a lot of carbon dioxide bubbles. It happened very fast, and increased pressure this sudden push fluid out of the bottle.


So, it's all the explanation. Do not jump to conclusions. Moreover, I once read a blogger writing this phenomenon and malign Coca Cola and Mentos. More ironically relate it to religious matters.

Advice: Do not consume Coca Cola and Mentos candy together!
