If you put enough rubber bands around a watermelon, chances are, it's going to explode.

Knowing that, Midday Michelle and I decided to give it a shot. I picked up a watermelon, and Michelle brought in the ponchos and goggles.

We then grabbed a one pound bag of rubber bands and went to work.

It took us about 12 minutes for the watermelon to start bubbling. The pressure applied by the rubber bands on the watermelon was starting to squeeze out all of its air.

Only a few minutes later, the top of the watermelon went sky rocketing into the air and made a huge mess all over the patio.

Have you tried this yet? If not, try it, it was so much fun!

Remember, wear a poncho and safety goggles!
