I was just watching video's of Gal Sone, which got me wondering how much people can eat.

Gal Sone is a Japanese celebrity who is mostly famous for being a professional competitive eater (as well as recently becoming a pop-star). The video below (for those of you who's Japanese is a little rusty) is basically her being set a challenge to eat as much as Elvis was rumoured to eat in a day. That may not sound like much of a challenge, except it was 15'000kcal. Which Gal achieved in an impressive 1hour 55min.

Especially impressive considering she's only 160cm tall and weighs just 43kg. :eek:

So what do you think you could chonk your way though in a similar time frame - say 2 hours? :confused: :D

Haven't done anything like it for a few years but I did eat 10 scotch pies in less than an hour a few years ago. Probably could have done it quicker but they were bloody hot :p

I remember watching one of those eating competitions and the winner(a japanses guy i think) could do that in under one minute. not just the dogs, the bread buns aswell.

He had some wierd technique where he would dunk the bun in water first and fold it up and down it and have the hot dog after
 
How can such a little thing eat so much! :eek:

She is hot as well but I wouldn't want to take her out to dinner. :D
 
haha yeah, where does she put it all.

i reckon i can eat a fair bit, i do compared to most people i know at times but probably not as much she does :p
 
I had three packs of jaffa cakes in the duration of Ocean's Eleven at a friends house once. I felt shocking afterwards though!
 
I can only eat very small amounts at a time which makes me feel very inadequate. And I'm not even thin.
 
I can't believe Kobayashi finally got beat too. :p

However, on Fox's 2003 show Man vs. Beast, Kobayashi lost in an eating competition against a 1089-pound Kodiak bear, when he ate 31 bunless hot dogs in 2 minutes and 36 seconds to the bear's 50

That is amazing she can eat that much!!

She must have one stonker of a dump after though...lol

I can eat, say a whole portion of egg fried rice, whole portion of chicken chow mein, and a portion of chips with prawn crackers to meself - takes me ages to eat, but I can get through it! :D
 
I once ate 14 pickled onions (large home grown ones) in one go for a bet. I lost £20 and my urine stank of vinegar for 2-3 days. I don't recommend it.
