Mythbusting in progress

It was Saturday night and I abandoned by my family as they went to my sister’s award ceremony. I was sitting  at home feeling bored so I decided to turn on the TV and to my surprise, one of my favourite programs on Discovery Channel was going on, Mythbusters. This show is about 5 people experimenting about myths and proving them right or wrong. This is my favourite show as most of the myths they tried out was usually wacky. The episode I was watching was amazing about Coke and Mentos.




As most of you know, if you put Mentos inside a bottle of Coke, the Coke in the bottle will come bursting out. But what they were experimenting was if you changed Coke to another type of drink such as Pepsi, Root beer, Sprite and so on. Once I saw their first test with Pepsi, I decided that it was time I became a mythbuster myself, as I always wanted to try to do what they usual did.



I quickly ran down my house and went to the nearby mini-mart and purchased a pack of Mentos, and a few bottles of drinks to try with. Knowing that if I conducted the experiment in my house, the whole place will get messed up and I would be murdered that very night by my mother. Thus, I did it in front of my house.

Conducting the experiment was breath-taking. It was so cool.  I even took down my results in a table like they did. Also, our results were quite similar. Now, I can truly say that I have tried being a Mythbuster before, at the expense of $10 that is.
