If you caught the Late Show with David Letterman on Thursday, or NBC's Today Show on Friday, you might have been entertained by Fritz Grobe and Stephen Voltz, a pair from Maine who've had a sweet claim to fame...literally.
When you see Grobe and Voltz don their trademark white lab coats and goggles, you can't help but take them very serious, until you see the items they experiment with; one 2-liter bottle of Diet-Coke and 4 Mentos candy. Thats it.
By inserting the 4 Mentos into the Diet Coke, a Geyser effect is created, in which soda comes rushing out of the bottle in volcanic fashion. As simple as it may seem, its actually entertaining, and mind boggling to see 4 small mento's create this display. The pair will be touring select cities displaying their sweet show...until their 15 minutes of fame are up, that is.
Here is a clip of the two in action:
