Lava vs. Can of Coke

[Agschmid]

Pretty simple, but pretty cool to watch. (minus the litter factor)

1. Coke held out a lot longer than I would have guessed

Lava is freaky hot.

3. Thought the same thing

Who knew coke was so tough!

I expected the can to ignite almost instantly.

4. Considering the barrels of coke I've drunk in my life

I'm not sure if this is good or bad - maybe my stomach will be the only thing left of me long after the rest is dust.

then again, maybe it was the can standing tough - it has to be to keep coke inside.

5. I was also very impressed...

I figured the pressure and aluminum would create some kind of amazing coke explosion!

2. So that can will be preserved in lava...

...perhaps to be discovered one day by future archeologists. Cool.

6. Future archaeologist: "The fuck is this?"

9. Sacrifice to the lava gods...

8. Woohoo!

Kind of an embarrassing duh on my part eh?

11. I may have to take a recycling trip to Hawaii!

12. I can't believe Pele is down with this. Just sayin'. n/t

13. Coke is toxic-- seriously

I had no idea until I did a little research at my doctor's suggestion.

I haven't touched Coke since.

Just FYI...

14. Well thank god the lava took care of that dastardly coke!

ETA: Most of the things from you second link are questionable.

15. That last shot freaks me out...I would NEVER be downhill from a lava flow that close...

Cool video though...I'm amazed at how long the cans held out.
