Explanation for how it works is here. Basically, the mentos (like pennies and a bunch of other things) have a lot of really small indentations. The indentations cause bubbles to form. Lots of bubbles forming causes the froth. It's similar to what happens if you shake a carbonated drink, except caused by an addition instead of agitation.

Poprocks are a myth that have been going around for quite a while. They don't do anything, I've seen it debunked before.

How does it work though? Cuz I've heard that poprocks and coke has the same effect, but I've tried that... and it doesn't.

So do the ones in a lot of movies. Your point?

I want to try this...
On the webpage there is a link to the Mega Burp, or something like that.
Youtube video in which a girl drinks a liter of Pepsi, and eats a pack of Mentos, then she explodes....
Obviously fake, although the bloody limbs strewn across the patio look veery realistic.

...If only poprocks and coke had that kind of effect.

YES! Because having reddish-brown (rather than just brown) liquid is evil. EVIL.

I should try to put red coloring in the soda to fool the neighbor into believing it is the end of world XD

Direct link to the video (Quicktime movie)

Yeah, they had a lot of fun, but it's not a real "experiment"

This is actually quite cool, but I'd rather go for the classic.

Rock Pops and Soda FTW!

Well, at least this one doesn't get you killed.

My guess is that it will pop. That seems logical dont you think?

I'm guessing you've done this? Because otherwise, it sounds VERY implausible. Especially considering how much fizz is lost just by drinking it, and how much drink you tend NOT to drink...

Yup, it tastes alot like medicine if you'd ask me. Mentos eh? I saw it last night, the guys were playing with 200 litres of diet coke and over 500 mentos. They sprayed it all over the place making sprinkler patterns. Almost looked like water.

Nice. That video was rather amusing, although, like Colin, I find it rather depressing for if I was going to do it in the future.

(I wasn't, but that kills my hopes even more because I know I could never be that impressive.)

You could always try liquid + dry ice bombs, as seen here. Take caution, though. Don't shake the bottle when you've put the ice in. Also, even though they use soda there, it works with any liquid.
