Takeru Kobayashi - how does he do it
« on: July 05, 2003, 09:46:29 AM »
This guy must really have a hollow leg.

If you have never heard of him, he is the hot dog eating KING of the world. This year he ate 44.5 dogs in 12 min. His record is 50.5

the next runner up managed 29..


on the downside he won a years supply of hot dogs :)

If hes going to be eating alot hot dogs in preparation for the next championship trial, I bet the company making the hotdogs for the years supply is going to be sorry.
(unless it means 365 hotdogs and not as many as you can eat in a year)


50 hotdogs.. thats crazy for 12 minutes.
1 hotdog every 14.4 seconds.

I'm just amazed the yanks didnt win.. after all they got hotdogs all over :>

I remember that WldThing except I believe it was a bear?  The same show had a sumo-wrestler playing tug-o-war against an orangutang.  Human lost.  The funniest part was the Orangutang showing a non-chalant "Who's next" face after the sumo was pulled into the mud.:D

He ate 4 and quit.  I think he watched others eating and realised he wasn't gonna come close to winning and would just get sick.
