Ever See 1500 Coke Fountains Blow at Once?

You don’t really want to.

Dubbed “The Diet Coke & Mentos Experiments,” the Leuwen, Belgium-based event happened on 4/24 and broke the world record for most “exploding” fountains at once: 1500. (The previous record was 973 out of Missouri.)

Not sure where Mentos fits in but it doesn’t look like there was a lot of fresh-making going on. Did it sponsor the raincoats or something? Something to contemplate while looking over previous Mentos/Diet Coke collabos. Thanks Influencia for sending this over.
