| FileCabi.net | Posted: 9 Oct 2007, 00:00 How To Make Glow In The Dark Mountain Dew |
| HeyBuddy | Posted: 9 Oct 2007, 00:00 Hey, it's worth a try. Other than Mt. Dew, I already have everything at my house. I'm just curious though, what makes a person decide to try putting baking soda and peroxide in their Mt. Dew? I would be a bit cautious. Peroxide is pretty foamy shit, Mt. Dew is carbonated....throw in some baking soda, and it just seems like it could get pretty messy when you shake it the way that guy did. |

LMAO...I see your point, but if you forget and drink something that looks like Chernobyl Soda, you might have bigger problems. :1orglaugh: |
| DaisyDontDuke | Posted: 9 Oct 2007, 00:00 I am gonna try this for halloween this year. Great idea for trick or treating with the kids. :xyxthumbs: |
| kingjohn | Posted: 9 Oct 2007, 00:00 Let me be the first to say fake. |
| HeyBuddy | Posted: 9 Oct 2007, 00:00 Okay, so it doesn't make Mt. Dew glow. If you swish the baking soda around in your mouth with the hydrogen peroxide, you just might have whiter teeth though. |
| thecheese_ | Posted: 9 Oct 2007, 00:00 imma try this later today... |
| chito | Posted: 9 Oct 2007, 00:00 im sooo gunna do this tonight..:xyxthumbs: then drink it and maybe just maybe

| PARABOT54 | Posted: 9 Oct 2007, 00:00 It's fake, go to snopes.com. |

No doubt, that's some bunk shit. I would be pretty surprised if it actually did work though becuase there just doesn't seem to be enough of the right elements in play to cause a glow. |
| FS88 | Posted: 9 Oct 2007, 00:00 Ahh nuts. I was all ready to get the supplies and try too :eek7: |
| Guest | Posted: 10 Oct 2007, 00:00 Hey wait, it just might work. Does anyone know if he's using the common household peroxide, or the 40% peroxide that you have to special order? |
| Guest | Posted: 12 Oct 2007, 00:00 Actually its not fake.
If you look at the markings on the peroxide bottle, he is using a industrial/scientific peroxide (that is 40% - 70% H202).....most likely the 70% version. Its risky though, that stuff is extemely violatile, hence why you need the permits to get it.
I assume these guys swiped it from a university lab.
It works because of the phosphoric acid in the soft drink (and every soft drink has it....and they chose Mountain Dew because its fairly transparent). The baking soda neutralizes the acid, releasing the phosphorus, then the peroxide binds with it, causing it to glow.....its that exact same thing in glow sticks, but trust me, it wont glow for long! |

Bullshit. I can't believe this shit is top rated. The same asshole that put this video on another web site tried to get a video posted of radio emitters setting coke on fire. It was clearly done by floating alcohol on top of the coke0 and lighting it. Uploader is anonymous because it's bullshit.
Yes, phosphorus can glow. This is not how to do it. |
| Guest | Posted: 30 Oct 2007, 00:00 I went to snopes.com I didn't find any thing on this, what is the link? |
| Guest | Posted: 9 May 2008, 00:00 you made me waste money on this shit that doesnt work, it doesnt GLOW!!! YOu bastard, dont even try it, its a waste of time. |
| Guest | Posted: 9 May 2008, 00:00 Ive already tried it this is weak... i wasted a can and a half on it, then a bottle thinking my reasons were different each time
lol |
| Guest | Posted: 1 Jun 2008, 00:00 I thought it was soooo cool, untill I tried it - ITS FAKE. Doesn't work. :-( |
| Guest | Posted: 19 Jun 2008, 00:00 Gay.... A waste of a perfectly good 1/4 Mtn Dew....

| Guest | Posted: 9 Oct 2007, 00:00 Sir,
I will only give you 4 stars and no i will not pass it on.
good day |
| Bushga | Posted: 9 Oct 2007, 00:00 Why would you bother if its fake |
| Seymour Tittz | Posted: 9 Oct 2007, 00:00 What a waste of viewing time. Why is this video even given "air time" on filecabi.net. It should be deleted.
http://www.snopes.com/photos/food/mountaindew.asp |
| Satan's Uncle Ron | Posted: 9 Oct 2007, 00:00 I tried this a few days ago, it doesn't work. I tried it exactly as the video shows and also with different amounts of peroxide and baking soda. He probably edited it and poured in liquid from a couple glowsticks. |
| Raidenator | Posted: 9 Oct 2007, 00:00 I could tell just by the way he held the bottle after shaking it that it was fake. It's pretty simple I think. |
| K-Lab | Posted: 9 Oct 2007, 00:00 I like on the snopes.com video fo the people trying it and at the end the girl say's "Should we try it again?" and the dude said "No it's not done glowing yet." That just made me lmao for a few mintues.Maybe it's the drug's? |
| silenthill22 | Posted: 9 Oct 2007, 00:00 Why buy a bottle of soda you can't drink cuz you wasted it doing this? I'd rather drink it!!! |
| Twinkie555 | Posted: 16 Oct 2007, 00:00 I just want to say that this weekend 10.13.07 my friends and i tryed this experiment and it didnt work. we tryed 30 different ways and with two different brands of proxide and baking soda. so i would have to say that is video is FAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| loadrunner | Posted: 16 Oct 2007, 00:00 At the Fish-sports shop (dont know the word in english) You have small cans of sticky glow liquid, to color the line and tip, for fishing in the dark.
I used a UV-pencil -(only light up in blacklight, used for marking electronisc so the police can see who's tv is stolen)- To write nasty thing on the t-shirt of someone i knew... At the Disco, it showed up perfectly. lolz |

| drewboo | Posted: 21 Oct 2007, 00:00 If you want closely, the bottle of Mountain Dew is switched. At 55 seconds, the camera zooms in on the baking soda and you lose site of the Mountain Dew bottle. When the camera zooms back out, the bottle has switched position (the label has changed and the location of the bottle itself has shifted.
Fake. |

| Satan's Uncle Ron | Posted: 31 Oct 2007, 00:00 Why is this thread still going? It should have ended on page 3, we've established that this was fake about 10 times already. They poured glowsticks into a bottle, stopped the camera, and switched it. |
| 389triple2 | Posted: 2 Nov 2007, 00:00 Fake, see link to snopes: http://www.snopes.com/photos/food/mountaindew.asp
Also, you can see the edit at exactly 60 seconds, where they replaced the MD bottle with one filled w/glowstick juice. |

Because it keeps trolls preoccupied |
| americanineu | Posted: 23 Mar 2008, 00:00 Absolutely fake. Hydrogen Peroxide is one of the three chemicals inside a glow stick though, so it seems all the more believable. Stupid viral videos.. and here I was looking for something to cause trouble over the weekend lol |
| Satan's Uncle Ron | Posted: 23 Mar 2008, 00:00 No way, this is totally real. I've done it 6 times now. |

A MOUTHWASH and STILL IS therefore PErfectly Safe
3.Baking Soda- well if that needs to be explained youve obviously never EATEN FOOD or BRUSHED YOUR TEETH in your life time i guess
Ok Fuckstick, go to the chemist and buy a bottle of hydrogen peroxide, drink it and then come back and tell us how safe it is. I know you won't because A.you're full of shit and know you can't back these claims, or B. if you do drink it you'll be dead (one can only hope) and won't be able to report back. |

When I was a teenager I found mushrooms that glowed in the dark down at Jells park. I was drunk at the time and thought it was the most amazing thing in the world so I took them home and woke up my parents to have a look. They were somewhat impressed. |
