This Is How the Body Reacts to Competitive Eating
Eating 70 hot dogs in ten minutes should be impossible, but competitive eaters have found a way. But how exactly does it work in the body?

Here's What Competitive Eating Does to Your Body
time.com/295461...
"Many serious competitive eaters appear to be relatively thin and healthy. So how do they eat that many hot dogs and stay healthy? And is it safe? Not much research has been done about competitive eating. But several doctors from the University of Pennsylvania did an experiment for a National Geographic special, the results of which were published in the Journal of Roentgenology."
Take a Bite Out of the World's Top Eating Contests
www.seeker.com...
"Everyone likes to eat. But for some people, eating is more than simple sustenance; it's a competition. As HowStuffWorks.com's Ed Grabianowski notes, competitive eating is a pastime that goes back thousands of years. The Major League Eating (MLE) and International Federation of Competitive Eating (IFOCE) suggested that, 'If you have 30 hungry Neanderthals in a cave and a rabbit walks in, that is a competitive eating situation.'"
Fourth of July Food: Where Did It Come From?
www.seeker.com...
"For some Americans, July 4 doesn't start until a grill is fired up, followed by hot dogs, hamburgers -- or maybe kabobs -- served with sides of french fries and watermelon. So how did we land on these particular foods?"

Gastroparesis is delayed or halted stomach emptying, due to neuropathy, and has nothing to do with the size of ones stomach, but rather the nerve impulses that allow it to empty. It would make sense if the muscles became so stretched that the nerve impulses became weak and the muscles couldn’t contract properly, but gastroparesis is delayed stomach emptying, and it can be caused by many things. It is not an overstretched stomach that can’t digest food.
"researchers found the eater's stomach could accept an almost unlimited amount of food" - that's the stupidest thing I ever heard.
Im in recovery from anorexia right now. Im 2.5 months in. In the first month, i got something called extreme hunger and i was eating 12000 calories a day, but still felt hungry
It is definitely easy to choke doing this... the one and only time I attempted to speed-eat something (I had been watching a lot of KZread videos and was curious if I could do it) I tried to down a Big Mac. Huge mistake. Maybe five seconds and roughly halfway into the burger I took a wrong breath, got some food in my throat, and had the worst coughing fit as I tried to hack up the food and not die. In the five-ish seconds leading up to that point, I thought I had the technique down... nope. I've never wanted to be a competitive eater, this was solely out of curiosity, and my experiment proved that I am not cut out for that task and those that do it are definitely way better at it than I am.
Well done video. It's nice to see the science behind our shenanigans.

Gastroparesis isn’t a condition of the stomach becoming too stretched. It is when the vagus nerve is unable to open to pyloric valve to empty the stomach-the contractions are reduced. This can happen to people whether they eat large or small amounts, though the more food in the stomach, the worse the paresis tends to be. But it still isn’t about stomach stretching.

starvation in fragments is very healthy. Humans were meant to go days without food. A lot of modern health problems stem from having constant access to carbs.
So basically in general you didn't point anything wrong with big meals. Obesity is related with nutrition overall, doesn't matter if you have one big meal. Gastrectomy and gastreparasis aren't a concern for healthy people

I’ve won this pie contest at a local fair two years in a row and I felt like I was going to die. I can’t imagine eating THAT much.
Mozzarella, Brie, Stilton, Cheddar, Parmigiano-Reggiano yumm
I had a disgusting thought. What if when the stomach is full, the partialy digested food gets pushed into the intestins? If this happened , the stuff that comes out the back end might be recognizable as the stuff they ate. Which might also explain competors reluctance to explain there 'experience'.
"know what im sayin?" LOL xD
When i eat too much i get intense stomach cramps stabbing pain and can't eat for 3 days. I cant believe how they can do this!
What I really want to know is how they feel after eating 70 hot dogs and how they burn off all those calories.
But what if you are a sayan. Sayans eat even many times more than a competitive eater. How can they do that?!?

(I'm recovering from an eating disorder) My largest meal was: -1.5 quarts of ice cream -Two packs of Ramen -One personal sized pizza -Two bowls of Alfredo Pasta -Three bowls of cheerios And I'm still skinny
Competitive eaters eat healthy and eat little when they are not competing. It's not that they are constantly stretching and constantly overeating.
Whenever I see this "sport". . . it just gets me every time because here in my country, I sometimes hear the cries of hungry children just a stone's throw away from my place.
Agreed. No competitive eater has ever talks about after math. Can’t imagine 15 lbs going out.
If I were to do this, I would do it once in my lifetime just to get that crossed off the list of things I wanna do in life.
I found this trying to find out how Matt Stonie eats a lot 😂
I believe the key is drinking A LOT OF water before a competition. It stretches the stomach.
@3:50 “So,FYI,I love hot dogs too” 😮ur kidding! 😂
The biggest meal I ever ate was two number 9s, a number 9 large, a number 6 with extra dip, a number 7, two number 45s, one with cheese, and a large soda.
When I see all of these challenges I'm just like Matt Stonie could do better
Dude.. You admitted your love of a mouth full of hot dogs, and you got some cheese on yer shirt. * cough *
36.hh the world record is 96
When I was 16 (now I'm 21) i remember I participated in a pizza eating challenge and Yes as a newbie competitive eater i was (i don't do it anymore) I almost choked on the food And there was another time when I was eating a lot of spaghetti as a challenge Then I felt like dying In fact don't do that shit of eating too much food like that Because there are really bad consequences later
trace's ending comment was really cute and endearing
1 pound = 453.592 grams
Doctor: competitive eating is self destructive My bulimic ass: *hold my beer*
the biggest meal I've ever eaten was a Christmas lunch consisting of 18 dishes!!
All I want to know is do they actually absorb all the calories they eat? Or maybe when you it too much food some of it isn't digested or at least the nutrients don't infinitely go into your body? You didn't broach this subject and I'm really curious if they really have to do hours and hours of cardio afterwards.
There must be a limit. There stomachs are gonna burst if they take two much I don’t know why anyone would do this to themselves.
I’m 15, I eat a lot. For breakfast I can eat 12 eggs 6 pieces of toast and cereal. Then eat more throughout the day. I was wondering if my stomach being stretched might affect ability to digest milk, and give you more gas ?

The biggest meal that I have ever eaten is probably after fasting or exercising and going in the sauna. Sometimes I burn 3,500 calories or fast for weeks, so I can eat a lot at a time too. I like to eat organic whole grains, organic nuts, organic beans, etc. Competitive eating is fascinating, but I don't think it is for me.

ThunderGun2 best comment of the week!
"Almost unlimited" doesn't make any sense. Infinity is not quantifiable and therefore is more of a binary in that something either IS or IS NOT unlimited. There is no in-between.
There is more to it because there are heavy people who can eat a lot of food but not 10,000-50,000 plus calories. Also yes seeing some of these competitors like Matt Stonie, it kind of makes you wonder and worry about his kidney function, blood pressure, diabetes & cholesterol. I thought I read that he wanted to become a dietitian, however he then should know the dangers of completive eating, which begs the question, why keep eating like this?

If eating 36 beefsticks makes you a competitive eater then your mom is a world champ
People worries about how people eating a lot rarely than people eating a lot everyday. So sad
competitive eating has led to a brand-new niche challange which is going viral as I type..... "Competitive shitting" with it's extreme spin-off combo: "competative curry/chilli eating and shitting" whereby toilet paper is placed in the freezer for the morning after. the technique of 'dabbing' instead of 'wiping' your arse if recommended, apparently. call it the "ring-sting challange", if you wish. crimping a cable or dropping the babies off at the pond in the morning will never be the same again. known medical side effects: if has been reported that some regular competitors have had to have their arseholes amputated and replaced by ripcords, although generally, this is frowned apon within the community and seen as cheating.
I’ll just say it because everyone’s saying it... MATT STONIE
How in the world did you guys not research/mention the effects eating like this has on your intestines? That's the real scary thing about this all.
A couple of problems. You failed to mention that alot of eaters don't digest everything. Purging is common. Second, if you eat 10000 calories Monday, you might only eat 300 - 400 on each of the next 3 days! Less than 3000 a day on the weekly average. Alot of eaters are lean and VERY healthy because they only eat this way intermittently as part of a dieting plan known as intermittent fasting. So all in all if you are grossed out by it don't watch it.
Did,anyone think that after overeating the food stayed in the intestine instead of the stomach?
I actually cannot believe those kinds of videos are so popular. It's sickening.
I wonder how many hot dogs this guy has put in his body? And I'll bet he enjoyed it.
I've actually participated in an eating competition just cuz I was curious, and friends and family had always encouraged me to do so seeing how much I could eat... I completed the challenge, and I felt happy... but boy, did I feel uncomfortable after that. I had to on a 3 hr walk afterwards lol
I am a normal person,I was fat before but I lost 65 pounds and now I am 165 pounds.I'm quite used to eating a lot,but I never competed or something.Now the real question:what would happen if I try to eat 30 big macks in one sitting(without eating anything else and drinking water to swallow easier)
When I saw this I thought of Matt Stonie
The fact that it's morally corrupt to eat like this when people are starving?
I just know when I see competitive eaters, I feel full just watching them chug down 10,000 calories. Also when it comes to something sweet like ice cream or anything sweet... if that was me, I would feel so sick not even half of what they are eating, I am just mind blown 🤯 by them. I would have to vomit just to feel better. And yes I would feel it in my sides. Another thing is I feel my esophagus closing when I am eating a little too much food, so how do these eaters not have this reflex?
