AMAZING!

it supposedly took him just under 5 hours to consume this monstrosity. But who cares, by any standard this is just amazing.

i know there are starving people everywhere who could have really used this beef. but instead, we paid a guy for consuming it by his damn self, fucking glutton.

America, no place like it on earth.

you know, i would really love to give this a shot. i might be small but i can consume like no other.

He gained 20 lbs in under 5 hours????

All I can think of is the enormous crap he took the next day....

ratbastid

Yes, but how DOES Giant Hamburger feel about having his kin consumed like this?

Baraka_Guru

15 pounds of that was ground beef...that will take far longer than a day.

GH is a confirmed cannibal, he's probably ok with it.

I wonder if you can get the burger made to your specifications.
I'd like some grilled mushrooms and onions added to that, maybe some Swiss cheese, then I'd give it a go.

The silence from GH makes me wonder if our evil friend hasn't been consumed... I would have thought it would take more time to consume him but, if someone was going to take him down it was very likely to be chef.

He did this after completing the "smoke 15 pounds of pot" marathon.

I'd like to say I could do the same for $400... but... I'm fairly sure I wouldn't be able to.

I can't imagine how absolutely terrible I would feel after forcing myself to consume as much of that as I could. I am more a "kids meal" kinda gal.

SSJTWIZTA

It's a gimmick thing some eateries do in the US. Often they'll have some gaint steak or burger that basically no human could eat on their menu. If someone does eat it (and it doesn't kill them) they get the meal free, maybe a few bucks and a t-shirt.

Rent the John Candy film "The Great Outdoors" for reference.

I ate a burger roughly half that size once. I had to buy the shirt, but I got my picture taken with a giant hamburger and put on a wall, so.... yeah, I'd do it.

You ate a 10lbs burger and they made you buy the t-shirt? That sounds almost un-American.

Now that I have been finally eaten
I can try out a few new corporal bodies I've had my eye on...

Right now it's between tiny bunny


and coconut crab

stevie667

Go for the crab, that bunny is a cold hearted vicious knight killer.

That would turn me off from anything resembling a hamburger for the rest of my life.
