How Harmful Is Competitive Eating? | Battle of the Super Eaters | Only Human 

American measurements 😂😂😂"feet"

@@melonie_peppers definitely not comparable

@@melonie_peppers y’all have to measure the weight of your food stop talking.. 8 oz of milk..2 ounces of sugar🤣

@xenon ♡ height of what

😂😂😂 new born babies brought me to the comments section

😆 19:30 caught me off guard

Omg yes 😂😂😂

Sooo trueee💀💀💀

Had to turn the volume down lol

I wasn’t sure what you were talking about until I heard it. Lmao! My mom was in the room with me! So embarrassing lol

There is a clip from a Japanese TV show still available on RU-vid having Gal Sone, one of the most popular competitive eaters in Japan, x-ray her stomach after eating a lot of food. It showed her full stomach expanded 15 times her empty stomach size.

chubbyemu has a great video on the health impacts.

@@AR-zz6dr Thanks!

Is that a good thing or a bad thing???

they purge afterwards, so i assume the damage is to the esophagus and nasal areas. (look at joel hansen as an example of someone who messed up their nasals from purging)

Try watching Randy Santel. He's known for being the cleanest eater, much cleaner than Adam

The Lea woman in this docu eats pretty cleanly, too. Actually, comparing their burger eating in the contest, Adam ate like a crazy pig 🐽 😂

Try watching Randy Santel, he's even cleaner.

Joel Hansen is probably the best. He always goes at a steady pace and keeps things clean and casual and talks throughout. Plus the guy literally never fails, he's on a different level.

@@mitchellknight Randy Santel is like that too, super clean, doesnt rush, talks a lot throughout.

agreed mate, many uncharismatic goofballs in the comp. eater area, adam is one of the few with a brain and humour and he's always nice to the peeps.

He seems nice but do you know him? Nope! Also I think he’s too messy

@@effkay3691 There is no way you just said "too messy" when referring to competitive eating... they literally go hand in hand with each other.. It's like saying to someone "Go take a shower, but don't get wet." 🤦‍♂

Not nessasarily Katina eats kilos is always super clean and super fast@@Calliegun

Nothing to be proud of, gluttony isn't a sport. If he was a nice guy, he would donate some of his money to starving people.

Same! Made me massively uncomfortable 😐

Right like so awkward.

it was sooo weird. i’m glad i wasn’t the only one

it genuinely disturbed me

Music ???? Or some kind of strange moaning...😉

almost clickbait

You don't need to test them to know that it's incredibly unhealthy. Every aspect of what they do have been studied endlessly individually and are well established to be disastrous for your health. How would putting all of those unhealthy habits into practice at the same time somehow magically make them not unhealthy anymore?

My question was not about how unhealthy this was.. stay on topic ... it was about HOW were they able to do this. That was what I was commenting on. @@Rowgue51

I’m wonder how they do this without throwing up

@@Uhhlaneuh The moment they start to gag is when their bodies are telling them to stop. The body is extremely intelligent.

And he pronounced it "aluminium."

@@maam-yj8ph We pronounce it aluminum in Czech Republic too.

that's how the retarded imperial system starts

I heard that and immediately came to the comments lol, what a random way of representing weight

Oh, now I get what 10 lbs is. WHYa stepladder ???

Okay, thanks for clearing that up. I was wondering....

They are both bodybuilders too

Erik the Electric is a mukbanger/ competitive eater who is also a fitness fanatic. He covers both sides of the phenomenon.

@@geoffswoman yeah He’s fun to watch. I just wonder how bad it is to do this all the time…it’s has to not be that good for you even if you watch what you eat and work out after all that stuff you ate..who knows I’m not a health expert lol

@Marc H. Beards wife is younger than he is mate. I think she just has one of those faces that can look 25 or 45 depending on the light.

Wish they had Dr ck blood test & scan Internal organs damage by the insane competitors bodies.

Also, what goes in must come out in some way - not to be crude, but what experiences do some of these people have after a competition?

@@UKImmigrationLawGeek I’ve read massive diarrhea & not a good pleasant experience 🤢😝

I think Beard tracks his, as he used to be a really jacked bodybuilder

@@UKImmigrationLawGeek they probably dont really 'eat' it all.

Yeah, it's just "look at these freaks" and they are all "yeah, we are freaks, but I like it, so I'll keep doing it" and that is about the summary haha

Exactly

Almost half way though, I thought "When are they going to talk about eating issues?"

thanks for the heads up

Oh great. Thanks for this comment now I don’t have to waste mt time

@notfiveo😂😂😂

@@notfiveo Being the quickest in the world able to fall asleep would be pretty impressive.

The D riding is so weird

Horrible to watch . Must do major damage over time.

The neatest eater is Notorious B.O.B. of Pennsylvania, USA!

Sloppy? its a eatting challenge what you expect.

It all depends, there are 2 types of eating challenges. Being the fastest or eating the most. Fast eaters are usually alot sloppier then big eaters. It also tends to get allt more sloppy when being in a competition with others.

Either him or Katina eats Kilos@@jbjacobs9514

He sounded rather bitter and jealous to me.

Lol, I’m surprised no one mentioned it, starts at 19:30 for the people scrolling through the comments/not watching the whole thing

😂😂😂

ikr lmao

1 qqq q q qqqqq a a E @@cloudtron337 1¹¹ 1

Hhahhahhaahhahahaha wtf

Lol, same here 😂

Good point!

Same.

U read and spoke what's on my mind.and the music they chose is also grotesque

Nope I want eat also.

LOL

Right like that's just immediately what his mind jumped to lol

I was thinking the same thing. It probably looks like a murder scene from NCIS. 🤣

Beard has joked about that in one other video I saw.

Big dooks

It's because you're a girl.

All females are happy when the same genitalia wins anything.

Cause girl power 🙌🏽❤️

Spoilers! Jk

I feel like she could benefit from therapy. Adam is happy and enjoys the food. The other two seem obsessed, don't enjoy the food a and Kyle is very messy.

🤣🤣🤣

what was the need to add the sounds in 🤣🤣

@stanley karenzoe what are you on about? Nothing you said relates to the original comment

ayoooo

Quitter

I was eating taco bell

When I was a teen I could easily eat a full pizza now I get full :( I guess that’s my body saying I don’t need as much energy :(((

I ordered a pizza on friday and still eating it today.

I had taco bell last night....again c:

It does happen.

I over the calories

That's all I could think about lol I remember the young lady who died during a pancake eating contest

I'm too clumsy for it, lol.

Someone with a stricture in their esophagus couldn't even dream of it

I seen that. He usually is more clean than that. I think it took him longer because of it.

The accompanying music is terrific!!!

Running a lot works too. Half the reason I run is so I can eat whatever I want in large quantities without turning into a blimp

Literally what I was thinking the whole time, and nobody else seems to be mentioning it.

They are not dangerous if you know what you're doing. Randy Santel has been doing it for 12 years and he's fit and healthy. Adam is fit and healthy and so is Leah. They don't eat like this every day.

More likely the algorithm found him..via you..

@olsim1730 Probably, different accounts and devices, but occasionally the same IP address. Either way, he still clicked on it. Guess the algo isn’t as bad as people think it is.

Ahahahahaha!

😅

😂😂😂😂😂😂

😂😂😂😂

Beard Eats Food 😂

He has a sexy super clean. Beard. 🎉

Lmfao so true these guys are nowhere near Matts level.

This is an old documentary at least 2 year's

I have absolutely no idea who Matt Stonie is. If I had to guess I'd say he probably eats a lot very rapidly.

molly schuyler would embarrass all of them

@@EsmeeAnnamarie Him n Joey chestnut are like rivals, both have been number 1 in the world

I agree. Sport: n. “An activity involving physical exertion and skill that is governed by a set of rules or customs and often undertaken competitively.” I think physical exertion means more than moving food from the table to your face.

Maybe that's because his youtube channel is edited by him so obviously he's not gonna post things that make him look like a douche. He seemed pretty cocky to me.

sure. Ive watched them and dont like him at all.

​@@thirtythreeeyes8624It's a documentary they like to spice things up for more engaging content.

She says when she eats the burrito that if she allows herself to see/smell or taste it can put her off her goal. So no, I don't think they let themselves taste it. It's not even food to them anymore.

i dont think the point is to taste the food tbf

It's just like a sprinter trying to finish his race as fast as possible , there's no other thoughts . At this point I feel that these guys may even eat stuff like cardboard and rocks

exactly, the only thing I can't understand the point. eating should be fun

They can taste victory if they win. Thats all the flavor they need probably

thing is, exercise is not the reason they are skinny...they do extreme diets, so they basically are doing exteme yoyo-diets.

@@TNM001 I never talked about anyone skinny

Exactly!!!!!

🤣🤣🤣 it’s so weird hahahaha

Lol l! How did i not notice that tje 1st time watching

What was that 😂😂

Llllol

Never meet your heroes.

he didnt slate him at all, he just said kyle isnt at the same level as him, which is absolutely fair since he accomplished more. Im sure that when kyle gets to his level he'll accept him

I agree. Made me dislike this guy. Not a class act.

@@Rambutan. not watched a vid since, put me off

Yeah, was a bit eye opening really didn't think beard would be like that

To enjoy anything in the hellscape of western culture, one must abandon all moral judgements. Everything we consume under capitalism depends on the suffering of others, usually far removed from sight. Currently, 1 in 7 children in the US are food insecure but you won't see those stats alongside coverage of an eating competition.

I had active non purging bulimia in my 30's. I looked extremely physically fit as i ran 1/2 marathons competitively, did team rowing and was a weight lifter. I hid my binging. My binges looked a LOT like their competitive eating. I could binge 10,000 calories easily in one sitting. Then fast and limit my intake until the binge took over again. At the time I weighed 130 pounds. I weigh 130 pounds now, but it is 30 years later and post a lot of therapy and treatment. I no longer binge. And at 62 years old, my physical activity and food intake is reasonable. All of these "competative" eaters seem to have past weight and body image issues.

He sounded bitter. No big deal. We see a lot of the older athletes talk the same way about current athletes. There’s definite jealousy there, nitpicking on a point of cleanliness. Some people are so petty.

100%

Exactly

Aliens are already here.

🙌

They're already 👀

@@pinkeye6803And yet, Adam and his sister fundraise for the UK Stroke Association, as it was a stroke that claimed the life of their dad. So even if the relationship between father and son might not have been the most ideal, the son still honours his father. It's a good thing to see.

Real men don't tell other men they love them. If I told my grandfather I loved him he would litterally kill me I am 100% certain.

@@bobbyvandyke143 I am so sorry for you. Regarding your grandfather. There might’ve been some physical abuse issues in his past then. You didn’t have the best upbringing I’m afraid and would be well served to work that out before having kids on your own. You’ll understand when you hold your newborn baby in your arms. No problem being loving and disciplined in decipling your child at the same time.

@@rekleif I have kids and thats just how men are supposed to be. My whole family is like that and most of the men we know also. Soft men raise soft men.

@@bobbyvandyke143 No it’s not. You treat your son differently than your buddy. What makes you believe that’s a good thing? Your son will become more secure as an adult if he knows he is good enough for his father. Be strict and raise him up to be a better father than you are let him learn from your mistakes and teach him how important respect is for us men but do it lovingly. Remember that all he wants is your approval. It’s so much easier to correct bad behavior if your son knows that whatever mistakes he makes you will never stop loving him. Try it and come back to me if you still disagree. Reading the Bible on what it says about how to raise sons could also be helpful. A lot of wisdom in that book my friend. Did not mean to offend you but there’s a difference between being what you call soft and actually you giving your kid a hug once in a while. God bless from Norway Edit If you raise him with the principle of love and respect he will surely see you as his hero and father. Fear of your grandfather like that is not normal friend. Treat him as your son, not your work buddy.

that's awesome! I just found his channel a few weeks ago and I'm still working through his vids. he seems so nice in them.

The young man has a name

Kyle Vs Food has a great RU-vid channel

feels like Kyle can eat more than Beard

@@Bella.45.2.47 he's not really a speed eater. He eats many times faster than the average eater, but far from the fastest eater

@@Bella.45.2.47 But beard eats way more volume, to me thats more impressive

@@mcpartridgeboy That's true, he's not fastest but he eats A LOT.

The programme clearly made beard act cocky, if you watch his RU-vid channel he’s pretty humble

Yeah Kyle most likely can eat the most out of the all of them…Leah..she is definitely the fastest out of the 3 and can put a lot down. Beard…idk lol he’s pretty good but I think he’s not as good as some.

Best eater in the World is Molly Shuyler. She is fast and can do loads of food as well. Plus she has a positive mindset. Never complains.

@@48pluto It's amazing what Molly can eat and she is tiny compared to Adam and Leah.

"He's not the Messiah he's a very naughty boy now go away!"

@@crimesforkibble6912 And how do you know I am not the Messiah ? Can you prove I am not ?

@@AdamKyleAnderson you obviously didn't get the reference

It’s really interesting to read comments like this here, instead of boring judgmental ones. But then, that’s kind of the tone of the video, so I’m not that surprised.

@@tablescissors67 Thank you and apologies as English is my 2nd language. Adam will always be my favourite eating champ. I sometimes want what he's having, but not eating that much or fast. LOL

Molly is better Leah is knowm to cheat

Just like Adam you mean?

Beard all the way!

Beard is the Jesus of eating he has personality

@Drizzt can you tell why and how she's known to Cheat??? I've only seen maybe 2 or 3 of her videos and that includes the burger eating so I have no idea about the cheating thing...

Seriously, they're making my stomach hurt. I was hungry for breakfast until I watched this, now my stomach is somehow full?

I cannot stand to see all of that chewing and seeing all of that food in their mouths is gross. I had to take my eyes off the screen a few times. I concede that with the nature of the documentary, people should expect to see people chewing. I would not want to be filmed chewing like that. The amount of food they consume in such a short time span is probably not that great. They do not seem to be ignorant about the impact that their actions have upon their bodies.

I have to agree

Beard was pretty mean about Kyle saying his name wasn’t very good! Come on Kyle show him how it’s done!

Yeah he’s pathetic. You could tell he knew exactly who Kyle was, and asking for a photograph first was just his way of trying to say Kyle was a nobody. He should know better as a supposed grown man. And don’t even get me started on that revolting beard 🤮

@@pottsjulie Yeah you're a much better person /s

@@pottsjulie can see hes joking

But who actually does that, not many. Even if you deliberately chew, trying to chew every bite 32 times is not easy. But I agree that that is the proper and healthy way to eat. It breaks down the food properly with the chewing, saliva generation, and stomach acids. It also helps control your portions as it takes longer allowing you to feel fuller than you are as well as your jaw getting tired so you just don’t eat those massive meals.

So they can make you watch an ad every 3 minutes.

Well, 3 minutes with the doc and on your way....

It's not unnatural. Alot of animals especially mammals have to eat fast to survive. A cat or wolf will literally swallow food as fast as it can before its rivals can. Its very natural hence why all.humans can do it.

@@oman9492 we don’t have to eat fast to survive but ok

@@brianbrannanHVACTech lmao

What? We don't do it "as a species". This is not normal human behavior. That's what makes it so interesting to watch.

Id rather watch competitive eaters then listen to some lunatic talk about made up genders because they are some sort of victim

Dirty secrets of stonies types of videos is that he purges directly after the last bite or for heat challenges there are drops you can take to numb capsaicin taste buds

@@scottsetzke7967 you are saying that based on zero evidence

@@scottsetzke7967you clearly follow unfounded conspiracy theories. You need to vet your sources better

I KNOW RIGHT WTF WAS THAT

I thought I'm the only one who went "WTF" at this part. 😮

It’s called having taste in music 😜 jk, that was not a track for this documentary

@@It-b-Blair 😆😆 bruhhhh...... 🤣🤣🤣

These people def have eating disorders

Agree I also think of the waste of food

Finally! A reasonable, rational comment on this video.

Because they do exercises to stretch it, so when it comes to the challenge day, it's like a deflated balloon

There is a tidy petite Japanese woman who does this kind of eating. They did a study of her organs and found that when she eats extreme amounts her organs actually shift over

@@LindaC616 whoa! Just like that Olympics swimmers guy that has more lung capacity than average men. They're borne like this

@@achicha yes

Some people have actually died from their stomachs exploding. Apparently binge/purge people stretch their stomachs so frequently that they create scar tissue which causes the stomach to be less pliable, so eventually as they continue over-expanding it, it can't stretch as much anymore so just tears. So yeah, people have died from their stomachs exploding from too much food.

There are techniques to help prepare for such things, lol

Same, maybe the weight of a pack of 2B pencils, or a very small scotch egg

Same!

You're weak AF.... And i assume you don't heavily workout? 🤔 Trust me. Daily heavy/intense workout makes you eat like this. 😂😂😂🙋‍♂️

Same

Get over yourself no one cares about your feelings remember that
