Are you a competitive eater? Can you eat 6 pounds of baked beans in 1

6. Saw this guy on some Discovery show
from the IFOCE website. I get woozy just thinking about this...

Takeru Kobayashi
Nagano, Japan
Age: 27
Weight: 132

Cow Brains: 57 (17.7 pounds) / 15 minutes

Hamburgers: Krystals: 69 Krystal Square Burgers / 8 minutes/ Nov. 13, 2004

Hot Dogs: 53 1/2 Nathan's Famous Hot Dogs and Buns / 12 minutes/ July 4, 2004

Rice Balls: 20 pounds rice balls / 30 minutes

Kobayashi continued to dominate the sport of competitive eating in 2003, once again obiliterating the competition in Coney Island by eating 44.5 hot dogs in 12 minutes. He has scheduled several additional visits to the United States in upcoming months, sending shock waves through the eating community.
