Man jumps into bath full of coke zero with mentos stuck all over his body


A Japanese viral YouTube star has made a splash by attempting to up the ante on an old prank.

Hajime, who boasts nearly 1.25 million subscribers, proceeds to strap hundreds of Mentos onto his near-naked body before plunging into a bath filled with 350 litres of coke zero.

Admittedly, the experiment falls a little flat, with the resulting fizzle failing to compare to the Mentos eruptions in some other more dramatic videos.

Hajime can be seen stripping down to his briefs, before strapping a vest of double sided tape onto his body and adorning it with the iconic mints.

While there is a sizeable splash when he dunks himself in the tub, it’s more likely the result of his weight rather than the explosive confectionery combo.

The vision plummets into stranger still territories as Hajime howls to himself and drinks from the fizzing bottles of cola.

The candy’s porous surface and gelatin clashing with the potassium benzoate, aspartame, and carbonation in the cola, releasing a torrent of CO2 and an eruption of foam.

The video, titled 'Coke Pool and Mentos Around Body,' has recently gone viral, clocking six million views.

It’s a far cry from the explosive results of Canadian YouTube pranksters Epic Meal Time, who last year achieved a much more cinematic version of the same stunt. 

The video saw a willing participant wearing a custom Mentos suit laden with the mints being dunked into a massive tank full of Diet Coke.

The results are akin to a cola tsunami.
