I'M GLAD THIS DIDNT EXPLODE UNDER PRESSURE!!

Matrix · 01-03-2009, 04:10 AM

So I'm driving along and thirsty and so I reach for a Sprite can that I knew I had in the centre console and this is what I found. Imagine the forces and pressure it must have gone through to end up like that. Anyway, im so happy that at least it didnt explode and ruin my day lol!

We recently went through some cold weather like -26c so Im sure it froze solid! I'll remember NEVER to leave pop cans in my new Camaro!

Imagine finding a pool of sugar water in your console with all your stuff welded together with sweetness! Phew!!!

Matrix 1.. Sprite 0 !!! LOL!!

Heat will cause one to do it also.

I used to put soda in the freezer to cool it off faster at work, and one day I forgot about it and came in the next morning, and there it was, just like that. Well, I took the can and just dropped it in the trash fresh out of the freezer, and it EXPLODED. Like, gunshot loud, shrapnel, and what looked like an Icee all over the ceiling above the trash can.

My coworker screamed and hit the deck. It was pretty epic.

I thought you were in the GTA? -26 sounds like you're out in the prairies.

*Camaro_Corvette* · 01-04-2009, 12:55 AM

Wow, your lucky there. That can had explosion written all over it.

*TAG UR IT* · 01-04-2009, 01:34 AM

I've had them go off in the car before due to excess heat.

But dang...that can was stretched beyond it's means!!!
