Ok the title of the story is really "Man breaks world hot dog eating contest record" but come on im not one to sugar coat it. America have we really sunk so low that we award people for over eating? There is a national eating contest circuit for gods sake, anyway this dumbass ate 59 hotdogs in twelve minutes and for this he won a free trip to New York, a year's supply of hot dogs and a $250 gift card to the mall. So lets see screwing up his intestinal lining , stomach, etc is worth a little over a grand to him. But hey he does get to walk around with his head held high and say " i can take more wieners in my mouth then anyone else in the world in record time." Maybe that might get him out of a speeding ticket some day like it did for Barbie Cummings.

Here's the full story:

oh and just for giggles i did a google face recognition search for the face of "wiener eater" and this guy did come up third he was beat out by number 1 some chick and this guy number 2
but fifth place came up as Marsha Brady. Id heard rumors about what went on the set but i never would have believed it was true.
