A movie that actually tried Mentos cola with '10,000 liters of cola' that was played over 11 million times



The Mentos Geyser phenomenon is a phenomenon in which carbonic acid suddenly evaporates when several Mentos grains are put into cola in a PET bottle, and bubbles blow up to a height of several meters at once. A movie about trying such a Mentos cola with a large amount of cola of '10,000 liters' was posted on YouTube, and it has attracted a lot of attention.

10 000 ЛИТРОВ КОКА-КОЛЫ И МЕНТОСА 2 --YouTube


This time, the challenge to create 10,000 liters of Mentos Coke is Maxim Monakhov, a popular Russian YouTuber.



This is the 10,000 liters of cola that was carried by truck.



First of all, from the place where all the cola is brought in. We will unload 1.5 liters of cola from the truck.




When all the colas are piled up, it looks like this.



The total amount of cola is 446,894 rubles (about 627,000 yen).



As the name suggests, Mentos Coke usually uses Mentos, but this time, instead of Mentos, we use 'baking soda', which is the cheapest one that causes the Mentos Geyser phenomenon. The prepared baking soda looks like this.



I also bought vinegar, which increases the power of Mentos cola when mixed with cola.



The total amount of materials is 700,000 rubles (about 980,000 yen).



Next, prepare a container for cola. Since a huge container is required to hold 10,000 liters of cola, we secured a huge drum can from the rolled steel disposal site.



Load it on a truck with a crane ...



Take it home and start remodeling. Repairs scratches and dents to make them clean.




At the end, draw the letters 'Coca-Cola' with a spray ...



Completed a huge container for 10,000 liters of Mentos Coke.



Upper parts that can drop a large amount of baking soda at once are also available. In the center of this upper part, a cylinder for blowing out cola is attached.



The experiment started before dawn in a large field.



Instead of putting cola directly from a PET bottle into a huge container, first transfer the cola and vinegar to a blue tar.



During this work, the night was completely over.



Tal with cola and vinegar is lifted with a crane ...



Pour the contents into a huge container.




Then set the baking soda on the upper part.



The upper part looks like this, and the contents can be discharged from the lower side. Baking soda is dropped at once with this discharge mechanism.



Ready to attach the upper part containing baking soda.



All you have to do is cut off the string that secures the lever and pour in baking soda to cause the Mentos Geyser phenomenon.



It is dangerous after cutting the string, so you need to escape immediately. In the first challenge, one of the crew tries to cut off the string ...



I was too scared and failed. I ran away before the string broke.



In the second try, put a knife in the string ...



Spa



Two people running away in a hurry



Immediately after the two jumped off, white carbon dioxide spouted from the upper cylinder.



Then, cola blew up like a fountain.



The cola that blows up reaches many times the height of a huge container.



The ground side is a downpour of cola.



Seen from the side, it looks like this. You can clearly see that the cola has blown up to a height more than five times that of the huge container.



Since the experiment was a great success, Monakhov was delighted with a guts pose while taking a cola.



All the crew members hugged each other in a soaked state and shared their joy.
