A US man has shattered the world record for eating hot dogs by scoffing down 68 of the little blighters in 10 minutes. Joey Chestnut, who already has the world record for eating 10.5lbs of macaroni cheese in 7 minutes, successfully defended his hot dog eating title against Takeru Kobayashi of Japan at the annual Coney Island contest.
Joey Chestnut, who hails from California, is currently ranked number 1 by the International Federation of Competitive Eating, with feats including, eating 9.8 lbs of pork ribs in 12 minutes, 182 chicken wings in half an hour and drinking 8 pints of milk in 60 seconds.
Joey says that he trains through a combination of fasting and bingeing; this stretches his stomach.
