Giz reader Robert Woodhead combined two things that I just can’t seem to get sick of seeing: Stuffing Mentos into Diet Coke bottles and the super-slow-mo action of Casio’s EX-F1 camera to create this stunningly beautiful video.
Woodhead compensated for the 1200fps’ paltry 336×96 frame size by stitching four different Mentos tests together, and the results are awesome. Globs, ribbons and rings of Coke that are impossible to track in real time come to life when seen in slow-motion.

A co-worker of mine saw that I was eating a steak and bacon sandwich and asked me if steak-bacon (if it was real) would be my favorite food ever.
I replied to him that it would indeed be my favorite mythical food and that I would treasure it always.
He then asked me if I would marry Steak-Bacon.
I told him “Yes” and every question about Steak-Bacon would also be an affirmative.
I told him I would not only marry Steak-Bacon, I would introduce it to my parents and meet Steak-Bacons parents as well.
That is when he realized what I was up to.
He accused me of only agreeing to meet Steak-Bacons’ parents with the intent eating them.
I admitted it. He asked me if Steak-Bacon and I would have children and if I would even think of eating them.
To that I replied “No.”, I would not eat my Steak-Bacon children but what I would do is support them and hope that someday they would meet someone special, preferrably Gravy so that they could produce grandbabies made from Steak-Bacon and Gravy.
And then I would eat them.
Finally when my dear co-worker decided to get a little personal with his line of questions he asked, “Would you spoon your Steak-Bacon?”.
And thats when I told him…
“You don’t spoon Steak-Bacon…you fork the sh*t out of it.”
