Helps Make the Internet

Justin Dickinson Hi, how's it going? I'm Justin. I live in Brooklyn and design at Vimeo I like to cook and look at things on the Internet.

I share all the cool things I find at A Variety of Things. I think bears are awesome. You should definitely watch some of my favorite videos.

I'm on Twitter but don't use it that much. If you want to say hi that's cool too.

Record-breaking Mentos and coke explosions

It was to be one of the biggest science experiments ever seen yet there was not a bunson burner or test tube in sight.

Around 1,500 students kitted out in waterproof ponchos discovered exactly what happens when you drop a mint sweet into a bottle of Coca Cola, in an attempt to break a world record.

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.
