In the musical Feeling Electric, the main character, Diana Brown, tried to commit suicide twice by mixing Pop Rocks and soda:

During the song "Feeling Strongly Fine - Catch Me, I'm Falling" she says "I overdosed on antidepressants fifteen years ago, which in a perfect world would just make someone really happy, but I puked them all up. So I tried Pop Rocks and Coke to see if I could get my head to explode."

Later, when she tries suicide again ("Stomach Pump - ECT"), the contents of her stomach pump are "valium and fizzing candy".

“I really feel like this is part of my life's work....It's part of what I want to do with my time here....So if I can make a difference at all by talking openly about myself, I'm glad.” - Anthony Rapp, Without You, pp. 206-207
