I was watching a documentary about competitive eaters, it had that guy from Japan who wins all the Nathan's Hot Dogs contests in New York, and it showed how they train for these contests and everything. If you could, would you ever compete in a competitive eating contest?
 
Maybe as a one off, depending what the food is.
 
No. I would get sick because i eat very little.
 
I heard people barf up all their food back up, after their done. Is this true? I thought people actually digested all that sh.t into their system.
 
It's disgusting. I watched the Glutton Bowl a couple years ago on FOX (what else?) and it made me sick to my stomach. There was a conveyor belt loaded with hot-dogs going past three fat, lazy *******s who were stuffing their faces and a crowd of hundreds of brain-dead half-wits behind a chain linked fence cheering them on. The only things I could think of were:

a) I just know they're going to throw the thousands of uneaten hotdogs in the trash following the show.

b) If I were some poor person in a third world country who just happened to come into contact with a television while this was on I'd become a terrorist. Seriously.
 
Dumbest...sport...ever. I hope all of them choke to death.

no I wouldnt , usually when I think I can eat alot , my stomach contracts . I HATE MY ****N STOMACH ;mad:
 
I'd still be interested to see how much I can eat in one go. Doesn't have to be in a competition where I'm on TV throwing up. Might try at home. :O
 
They showed a clip from this year's Nathan's Hot Dog contest, they showed the guy from Japan (forgot his name) with hot dogs literally coming out of his nose.
 
It may as well be competitive smoking or competitive drinking with the amount of **** they're cramming into their systems.
 
My fork and spoon compete every day to see which one shovels more food into my mouth. Does that count?
 
I think this year they showed that the amount of calories they ate in the Nathans Hot Dog eating constest equals the amount of calories someone should eat in the period of 3 months.
 
Ive heard of "Competitive Eating" i personally dont belive its a sport.Its just a excuse to make a pig of yourself.

I feel the same way about poker and darts
 
^Hey, don't knock the gambling. At least you stand to utilize some hand-eye coordination and memory with those two. This is basically overindulging yourself to win a contest.
 
That's just sad.

Why do they call it a sport? Sports are healthy activities that strengthen the bodies. This just messes it up. I agree with those who compare it to competitive drinking or smoking.

Next up: "Competitive Freebasing!"

I also agree with whoever mentioned how must food we're wasting with those competitions when people are starving. :mad: Just makes me mad.
 
On the high definition sports channel, they cover alot of competitive eating. I think the series is called "Tour De Gorge". I like the interviews where the competitors truly believe they are athletes competing in a sport. I am amazed how many different titles their are. For some reason not sure why, I got queezy during the Tiramisu competition.

There are many sports that are extremely questionable as to being a healthy activity. Many do not include anything about strengthening the body. Remember horse racing is considered a sport, as is billiards. For many many years the great american pastime featured heros who drank and smoked while playing the game. I think it is a sport, as much as anything else.

I'm sure it a sign of affection:o


There is no way I would do that.....but, that Kobayashi guy is the man; never seen anything like that $#^$%^!
 
who do you knock it? are you aware what kind of trainging it takes to be good? and not be a stunt double for jabba?? I weigh 180 (160 before starting trainnig bouts) and i can out eat everyone whos posted her at the same time.Can any of you eat any meal in less then a minute? I can drink a gallon a milk in about half that time with a break,can anyone hear eat 20 ounces of steak before the waitress takes everyones desert choice? I can with a sip of soup here and there.I am known as kobe in the kitchens of the resort,its short for koybashi,hot fog champ,are traing methods are simliar,every chance we get we stretch our stomachs,we also do some hard core binging but not every day.the spoorts got alot of fat ass;s who i compare to steriods users in opther sports and guess what,in they end they dont win.I use gallons o fmilk to work my stomach into elastic and for atleast a few months IT HURTS each and everytime,I use milk because its harder and it keeps its shape better then watter and you dont end up in the bathroom 247 taking 10 minute pee breaks.I didnt get to register this year but i will next year and ill knock the **** outta of the water hog( i think it should be illegal for him to do what he does,no one eats hot dogs like that so it shouldent be aloud in competition) and hold the title.You see him on tv and think hes somthing special,hes not,look at the american now? and sonya finally breaking her bonds with him,there getting there,the americans more competition then kobi,he woulda won if he didnt make the stupid mistake at the qaulifier and ate 40 hotdogs instead of the required 20.kobi was lazy and could have been toppled.


Its hard to do and keep heathy and trim,its also very tuff on you,my digestive track is that of a sarlac pit but i consider it fun and i love the bets people make on it(fixed of course) and the looks on there faces as the sandwhich is swalloed tiger style.Id gladly show you guys,lemme get a video camera,youll see what happens to my 34 in waist when 6 pounds of food enter it with a gallon of fluid.

the dangers of the sport are greater then swimmers and most winter olympians,chocking being one,theres been a few times were i had to weez over to the bar tender and ask for tongs to shove down my throat and grab and losen a hunk of steak so i could swallow it.I ve had docters looking at x rays angerly ask why i do what i do.I do it because i can and its fun.Dont knock it until you try sitting down and eating 30 eggs or rather,one day,eat your normal meal in 2 minutes.Its tuff anf the good guys in the sport,those who arent just glutens will look alot more skilled then sick to you.
 
the funniest thing is that the best person at it is probably in better shape than the majority of the world and may well outlive us all....

that kid's got a crazy six pack....

you must mean for all contestants because that's only like 50 hotdogs max each and those hotdogs don't look so much...
