Glowing MT. Dew


Name of Myth:
Glowing MT. Dew

History/Background of the Myth:
This was sent to me by email from a friend. the myth states that you can make a bottle of MT. Dew glow by adding hydrogen peroxide and baking soda.

Hypothesis of the Test: I think I could work. It is very possible that the combination could cause some form of glowing.

Ideal MythBuster(s) to Conduct the Test: Grant & Tory


Best Method to Conduct the Test:
the myth states that u must empty 3/4ths of the MT. Dew.(i vote to drink it) then u add 3 cap fulls of hydrogen peroxide and a tiny bit of baking soda. then screw on the lid, turn of the lights, shake, and watch the glow....

do it when its full its beater. bigfun
ok i just ues a flashlight under it thats cool(bigfun)
My Prediction: Confirmed




this video shows how it is done.

Give my vote for testing this myth out. Of course if it doesnt work then it will be a pretty boring test, and for that matter the test itself is so simple that we could all test this one in the safety of our own home. This one is almost as simple as the Mentos diet coke test. Its not the test that is interesting in this one. Its testing WHY it glows that will make this an interesting Myth. Of course if this one doesn't work it would not even be worth doing a segment on. Theres no mystery in why Mt. Dew DOESNT glow!! I would've been skeptical of this test, that is before I saw the Mentos Diet Coke thing. Now I think I would be willing to believe you can make NASA grade rocket fuel out of RC cola and Junior Mints!
