The 98th Nathan's Famous Fourth of July
International Hot Dog Eating Contest in Coney Island, New York, is won by a man
who swallowed 68 hotdogs in just ten minutes, which is a total of nearly 20,000
calories, 1,173 grams of fat, 210 mg of cholesterol and 48,990 mg of sodium, enough
calories for 10 days for a healthy adult man.

short period of time as well as supersized and inflatable stomach. Then how do
those contestants develop such demanding ability and capacity to compete?
Enjoy reading and learning about this
extreme contest and its contestants’ efforts.
