Holy Crap!

I was just watching ESPN and they had the national hot dog eating competion on there and there was a Japanese guy named Takera Kobayashi AKA "TOKYO TERROR" and he has the title 4 years running and now broke the world record with 53 1/2 hot dogs in 12 minutes (more than a hot dog every 15 seconds) and the guy is not what you would expect in a professional eater he is really tiny (131 lbs)! I mean i am a big guy (6'6" around 300lbs) and i used to like to eat alot but even then i could not even on my best day eat 53 1/2 friggin hot dogs! This guy is my hero!

I know... this guy never seems to lose. They need to shoot him full of barium dye and see how all that stuff in there works and how big his stomach much stretch.

Now that I'm done disecting him with my mind...

☝ he ate 53 1/2 hot dogs in 12 minutes?! Man I'm telling you, it's something special with the japanese people ..

Now here is the real question...

Did he puke it all up after? I've seen lots of eating contests in my school, and in general, but usually afterwards all the contestants run off to the bathroom and puke up the plates of jello or whatever it was they were eating.

Eat more ?! God is there no end in his tummy?! I'm out after 3 hot dogs

I saw a documentary of sorts on him once. If I remember correctly, they were disqualified if they threw anything up. You should see what he eats in a normal day! Basically, go to an average sized restaraunt booth and cover it with lots of Japanese food. Rice, sushi, etc. He eats it all!! Also, if I remember correctly, he doesn't really excersize a lot either! It's totally creepy...

We like to call that high metabolisim my friend.

One of the things i wish i had dearly!!!!

 

[TwistedMac]

i've got high metabolism.. but not THAT high!!

wouldnt want to anyway... too expensive to keep that diet up XD

 

[Areku]

High metabolism couldn't allow you to eat 53 hotdogs in that time, because the food would only be at the very start of being broken down into energy. Most of it would be just chewed up and lying in his stomach.

He obviously eats a load to stretch his stomach, and has a high metabolism to let him do this regularly enough to be able to perform like that :|
