The Original Mentos + Diet Coke Video
Steve Spangler’s now-famous Mentos Geyser Experiment became one of the first viral videos on YouTube, teaching millions of people how to turn an ordinary bottle of soda and a roll of Mentos into an erupting soda geyser. Since then, Steve’s catalog of YouTube videos has grown to over 1,500 with over 380 million views and 1.2 million subscribers to his channels. Recently, YouTube’s top executives chose Steve as one of YouTube’s 100 Original Content Providers. His show, The Spangler Effect, teaches viewers how to conduct the coolest science activities using simple items found around the house.
Spangler’s most visible online project to date is called SICK Science – science experiments presented in a short video format that challenges the viewer to figure out the science behind the wow moment. Spangler’s minimalist approach was the first of its kind to showcase a style that focused the viewer on the real science instead of a personality presenting science. The SICK Science brand and style of engagement has come to define Steve’s ability to connect with a wide range of audience demographics.
