"two buns filled with rice and cheese as well as some of his teammate's food"

They would be elephant sized buns then or a duff bit of automatic translation (that would be the IT angle, then...).

Paris, because she can (video evidence) scoff more than that.

Almost as bad as the woman who held her Wee for a Wii. Do humans really care about suffering (starvation) thousands of miles away in countries they will never visit? At a time of global shocks and shortages, any kind of excess should be shunned by the media not promoted.

Have a heart !

Sad? possibly the sad bugger who thought that eating competitions were a good thing.

And sickening still those who promote the idea of stuffing yer gut.

What do you expect but dead people.

But, there are places on the planet where such events would be labelled as 'sport' and the Olympic Committee would be hassled in to including speed and quantity eating for the games.

in this case £38 - walks away shaking head!!!!

Stop - cos he did!!

Is that a franchise of Burger King?

...er, I meam buns

£38?!!?

DARWINIAN AWARD NOMINEE...

Shame, shame...

>Do humans really care about suffering (starvation) thousands of miles away in countries they will never visit?

NO!!!!!

my money's on the rice being undercooked.

Death catches up with "Big Stomach King" title winner

Nominated for Darwin Award instead

We used to have an Ambrosia Creamed Rice contest at Uni - 32 seconds was my best for downing 1/2 pint of the creamy nectar :o)

I guess the guy was just unlucky, since one of my mates used to be able to do 6 Big Macs at one go, so two rice/cheese buns sounds a bit soft.

Paris, just because of the buns.

Humans clucking well should care about the fate of the rest of the planet. In case you hadn't noticed, we're all here living together at the same time - separated by a few thousand miles of land and sea, and although you might not believe it, we're all the same species. I thought it was human nature to show a little compassion about others? Or is it out of sight, out of mind? Head in the sand, I'm all right jack, tough crap on the rest of the planet?

Thank your lucky stars folks that you were born into the relatively rich west (yes, credit crunch notwithstanding), which, for all its faults, is an infinitely better place to live in than a resource-poor nation controlled by a megalomaniac who doesn't give a fig about the welfare of the people he purports to serve. You can take your pick from dozens, if not hundreds of these.

Have a little perspective.
