coke + mentos record

Around 1,500 students kitted out in waterproof ponchos have created the world’s largest Coke and mentos explosions. The students, from Belgium, tried to out-fizz the previous record for so-called Mentos fountains by simultaneously putting Mentos mints into bottles of the soft drink. The resultant chemical reaction shot hundreds of streams of carbonated soda into the air.
The explosive record-breaking event was held in Ladeuzeplein square in Leuven, Belgium.
