Will Pop Rocks and soda really make your stomach explode?
Let's talk about that.

Good Mythical Morning.
Most people that I know want to be healthy.
I have met a few people who want to be unhealthy.
- That's your prerogative. - It's your choice.
You can do whatever you want.
But if you want to live, you want to live a healthy life,
and, of course, if you wanna do that, you should ask guys like us.
- On Facebook. - For health advice.
Which is what you've done.
Damelis Diaz asks, "How can I trick myself into thinking
vegetables taste good?"
- Great question. - 'Cause as we all know,
vegetables do not taste good, so maybe she's onto something.
Okay, so most people who say this, I would say, enjoy meat.
They would be like, "Vegetables don't taste good.
- Meat tastes good." - Or bread.
So you gotta do a psychological trick inside of your mind.
- Is bread a vegetable? - Don't confuse things.
Psychological trick inside of your mind, where you need to give
vegetables the characteristics of an animal, and maybe
it will make you like them. Let me demonstrate.
(chuckles)
Hey, Link, look at this guy. His name's Ryan.
Oh, he's like a human?
- Animal. - Oh, he's just got a human name.
He lived a great life with his buddy...
Dale.
Man, you got props and everything.
Look at these guys. Oh, they've lived such a good life,
they had a long, full life. They grew to be this size.
And now...(crunching)
I killed them.
So you got asparagus on your plate and you're like, "Okay, kids.
I got a flesh...fresh...flesh filet of the meat off the bone
of an asparagus creature?"
Mm-hmm.
Like, yeah kids, it was a creature made--
They should put bones inside of vegetables.
That's a great idea.
...Entirely of asparagus?
Eat chicken and then stick the bones inside of the broccoli
and give it to your children.
Like garden peas. No, those are the balls
of green monkey babies. Does that work?
That wasn't what I was thinking.
What else could they be?
Legumes?
- I think we should move along. - Okay.
It's gonna take me a while to get that down
because it's not an animal.
(laughter) You can get an animal down quick.
- Do the next question. - Okay.
Mary Cheek asks, "Will my stomach really explode if I eat
Pop Rocks and soda? And if so, how long can I live
with a hole in my abdomen exactly?"
Well, let's find out.
We should go for the soda pop first.
I'm gonna rip these open so I can just pour them right in.
I don't wanna impede anything.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And this is a whole packet
- of Pop Rocks. - I'm ready.
So this first?
Mmm.
(Pop Rocks rattle)
(popping noises)
(crunching)
(hissing and popping)
Okay, I could take some more soda.
Wash it down.
Get 'em all down, Link.
I'm gettin' them down before they start poppin'.
- Mine are all down. - All right.
Mine are all down with two big gulps of cola.
(explosion)
(belching)
Oh gosh.
What was that?
Well, I burped, but before that... there was something happening
in and around my shirt.
(laughter) It happened where?
Under my shirt.
Well, I'm a little afraid. I can't even say it.
Well, let me see. Let's all see.
Okay.
(Link) Oh crap.
What?
- How do you feel? - I feel okay.
How long do you think you're gonna live?
- I feel like-- - Fake watch.
I feel like I could live forever.
Like, literally, that's how good I feel right now.
Okay, I think that answers your question.
Yes, your stomach will explode, but you're gonna live forever.
(laughs) J.r. Padilla asks, "Two guys, Two Weights was great
for helping "loose" weight. Will you guys-- "loose weight."
Yeah, I get it.
"Will you guys make a workout"-- wow, I still got--
Yeah, you're finding a pop here and there.
Yeah, there's is, back in there.
"Will you guys make a workout and meal plan for gaining weight,
as in building mass?"
Yes, so Two Guys, Two Weights was a workout series
that we invented on this show.
(laughs) Two Guys, Two Weights DVD.
- (cracking up) - That's horrible.
That'll sell like crazy!
And, yes, it was a big success. Not necessarily a commercial success,
but it was a success so much that we are proud to present
our second series of workout series.
- Yeah. - Things.
- Two guys-- - (both) Gain weight!
♪ (campy '80s music) ♪
Hey, guys! Welcome to Two Guys Gain Weight!
It's pretty simple. We're two guys and we're gonna what?
- Gain weight! - That's right!
And help you gain weight to help you undo
what we got you do to in the last time we did a VHS workout series
- where you lost weight. - Vicious cycle!
- Here we go! - Workout number one
is Hot Potato. Link get the hot potato!
Link! Stop dancing and get the hot potato.
- Okay, here it is. - There it is.
Whoa, this thing is so hot!
In this workout, what you gotta do is you gotta hot potato.
How hot is that potato?
Totally potato...pretty hot.
Okay, and then you gotta get your optional sour cream...
[inaudible]
Here we go.
- Pass the potato. - And then--
Whoo! That's hot.
(Link) Dip it and chomp it.
Pass it back 'cause it's hot.
Dip it, chomp it.
You can choose to eat the same side of the potato
or a different side. I go for the different.
Tossy, tossy, tossy!
Side potato!
You can talk like Link if you want, but I don't.
For this next workout, everybody grab your hambells!
Yeah, two men, one hambell.
All right, lift and eat.
(munching)
- Yeah, pump ham. - Eat until it's gone.
(Rhett) Hey, Link! How do you know
- when this workout's over? - When the ham is gone.
That's right, Link. When the ham is gone.
And, remember, it's like we always say: always eat every rep of every set.
Mmmm!
Yeah!
[inaudible]
- The ham is gone. - The ham is gone.
It's done. Next workout!
Okay, it's time for Pizzcus!
What's that? A pizza discus!
That's right.
I'm in the mood for sharing. Okay, I'm gonna do the discus,
the pizzcus, right into Link's mouth. Get ready, Link!
Aaaaah!
- Oh! - Oh, that hurt.
All right, let's get a fresh pizza.
Time to return the favor.
Don't do it Frisbee style. Don't do it Frisbee style.
(crew laughs)
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
If it catches you on the shoulder, it's good.
But remember, you gotta eat it with your mouth.
Or he can eat it.
Bulk up, bulk up.
Oh my goodness. Go for it, go for it.
How do you know when you're done?
(Link) I don't know. How do you know?
So you're not done?
(Link) You can do it! Complete the rep.
This is when you really--
It's always worth it! Look at that!
Bulk up.
I didn't think I could do this, but you know what? I did it!
And you can too!
But maybe you shouldn't.
All right, guys, now it's time to feel the burn with some chili-ups.
Get yourself a big bowl of chili, put it under your face,
get in the push-up position, and then...uh, eat the chili
- while doing push-ups. - Pretty simple.
Two guys gain weight, go!
(groaning)
- Oh, it's got beans in it! - Mmm!
There's a lot of it down there. Let's go and get 'em.
You gotta really get your face in it.
- Oh, yeah. - Cause your head will hit
the side of the bowl. You really gotta get your face down in it.
Like this:
(groaning)
If you just wanna get in the tornado drill position,
and just stick your face in the chili...
that's totally acceptable.
As long as you're eating chili, everybody's happy.
The push-up's just for show, really.
(Link) Ask yourself: are you happy right now?
And, hey, how do you know when you're done?
Oh, look at that. I think that we're done!
(groaning)
Listen, the only thing that stands between you and gaining weight
- is you. - (moaning)
Okay?

As if that wasn't weird enough, now it's time for a segment
we call "The Internet Is a Weird Place."
That's right, the Internet is a weird place and we wanna guide
you through the weirdness that is the Internet and highlight
a weird website each week. This week that website is...
- (Link) Sanger.com. - (Rhett) Sanger.dk.
Not .com. Don't get it wrong, son.
.dk, that's important!
It's like Denmark and Sanger like, "She's a good sanger."
- Let's go there. - There's no singers there.
It's just this pug licking glass. There's no sound.
(Rhett) There doesn't need to be sound.
(Link in cutesy voice) He's so cute! He's so hungry! He wants to eat glass!
(Rhett) Who's watching? Who's watching me?
Do you see that, how he looked over his shoulder?
Of course, it loops on itself.
Maybe he feels guilty about this. I wouldn't feel guilty about this.
You know, it fascinates me that someone took this video
and then thought this needs to be on some dedicated website.
That's what makes the Internet great.
This dog is pretty cool, okay. And this website is pretty popular,
but this isn't anything that we couldn't do.
In fact, we did it. This is what it would be like
if you went to our website.
(sloppy licking noises)
Two guys are better than one dog.
(laughs) I don't know, but we have uploaded our site
through TheInternetIsAWeirdPlace.com, so you can scroll down there
and you can see our site, as well as the sites
that your cohorts, your other Mythical Beasts, have nominated.
That's where you go to nominate a website that you want us
to highlight next week, and while you're over there you can
also get a free trial and ten percent off the creation of your own website,
