I'm Joey Chestnut, a competitive eater ranked number one in the world.
0:01
Let's answer some questions from the internet.
0:04
This is competitive eating support.
0:10
At Tanner Dean McCoy, wants to know what is easier to eat in one sitting: 18 Crispy Cream Donuts or one large pizza?
0:17
18 Crispy Cream Donuts.
0:17
Oh my God, those donuts are like air.
0:17
They go down fast, especially if they're warm.
0:17
I love pizza, but crust always slows you down.
0:17
18 Donuts, so easy.
0:17
Those won't even make it home from the drive-thru.
0:17
At Virgil Virgil, woke way too early and then just wondered, how do competitive eaters not just die from the amount of salt and in their body?
0:17
If somebody tried to eat 70 hot dogs for the first time, they might die.
0:17
It's kind of like the person who ran the first marathon, they died.
0:17
But now millions of people can run a marathon because they know how to train.
0:17
Eating 70 hot dogs, I've trained and made my body adapt to it.
0:49
Our bodies are absolutely amazing.
0:51
At not Bubba Wallace, I can't understand why anyone would dunk a bun in water instead of just eating hot dogs like a sane person and washing down with some water.
1:03
Well, apparently, not Bubba Wallace isn't very competitive in anything.
1:03
Dunking the bun makes it faster.
1:05
We're skipping the step of having to drink the water by dunking.
1:07
I'm eating one hot dog, using the wet bun as a sip of water to helps swallow the hot dog.
1:13
That's the way it works with competition.
1:17
That's not always pretty.
1:17
For the upcoming contest, there's a no dunking rule.
1:17
I've been practicing eating hot dogs without dunking.
1:17
I have to take the right size bite, right amount of water.
1:17
See how fast I can get this bad boy down.
1:42
Pretty slow, but that's about it.
1:48
At James W Bell Music, how does one train to eat so many hot dogs?
1:48
My training isn't too much different from like a runner.
1:50
Runners have to run, eaters have to eat.
1:55
It's hard 'cause I can't practice every day.
1:53
Once a week I'm doing a practice contest and then there's a recovery period, a cleanse, a fast.
1:58
So I'm for my next practice day of a contest, I like black coffee.
2:00
The acid from the coffee gets things in your stomach all moving around and you're ready and a little amped up from the caffeine.
2:13
I wouldn't call it a drug, but I do think caffeine helps.
2:13
At NY Design Guy, what do competitive eaters do after the contest?
2:13
Do they purge or just digest?
2:13
Either way seems uncomfortable.
2:13
The best competitive eaters do digest the food.
2:13
I only get sick if there's something wrong, if I'm dehydrated or the food's bad.
2:13
When you say uncomfortable, that's where I'm really lucky.
2:13
I kind of like the feeling of being bloated.
2:13
That's one of the things that works in my face.
2:13
I'm trying to stay vertical and stay walking around.
2:13
It helps the food settle deep and starts digestion.
2:13
After that, then I'm thirsty and I just want to go to sleep and have some crazy dreams.
2:37
Some contests, I'm putting on a lot of weight.
2:39
The most I've gained is I think it's been more than 20 lbs and it takes about five days for me to get back to my normal weight.
2:47
But I love it.
2:47
At Carl I Winning, do professional eaters like lose from stopping because their jaw hurts, not because they're full?
2:47
Yeah, you're absolutely right.
2:47
Your jaws and your throat muscles slow down a lot of competitive eaters.
2:47
Like the food settles at the back of their throat 'cause their throat muscles are weak.
2:47
Really important for us to train those muscles and get them strong.
2:47
At I'm Nasty Nat, how do competitive eaters not choke just swallowing whole hot dogs like nothing?
2:47
I have seen people choke.
2:47
It's always the person, it's their first contest and they're just trying to keep up.
2:47
It's always turned out okay.
2:47
Run DMC 912 wants to know, anyone else wonder how people get into competitive eating?
2:47
Do they enter regional tournaments and work their way up?
2:47
I'm genuinely curious.
3:25
I did my first contest when I was 21.
3:26
It was at a casino in Maro.
3:32
They offer me a free hotel room.
3:32
I was like, heck yeah, I'll do it.
3:32
I tied for third.
3:32
Then I was like, oh my God, I'm going to do another local one.
3:32
Three contests later, I was at Coney Island on the 4th of July and I got third.
3:39
In order to be a good competitive eater, you have to love eating.
3:40
It's always easier to eat a lot of food if you like it.
3:47
At TW for Fat asks, how do competitive eaters not gain weight?
3:45
Dude, I do gain weight and it's a battle.
3:49
I have to be aware of it because if I lose track of my long-term calorie intake, I gain weight then I start losing contests.
3:54
I hate losing.
3:54
Without getting graphic, I'm taking in thousands and thousands of calories during a contest.
4:00
There's no way to absorb all those calories.
4:01
Things are running through me.
4:03
My normal routine after contests is to eat super high fiber, keep everything moving, low carb, no starches.
4:07
Doing cardio helps me with my breathing during a contest, but I don't depend on cardio to burn calories necessarily.
4:14
I try to get into a calorie deficit in order to get back to normal weight.
4:18
Some people chipmunk while they're eating.
4:19
They kind of over stuff their mouth and they keep food in their cheeks, kind of an amateur way to eat.
4:25
You're not moving the food efficiently.
4:25
You want to keep everything moving at the same pace and not letting it build up.
4:25
At Jiggy Paa, serious question for competitive eaters, do y'all actually taste what you're eating or of course we taste it?
4:25
It's like a race car driver, can they tell if they're driving on a crappy road?
4:25
I really like when it's good food.
4:25
I really hate when it's a food that I love and they did a bad job with it.
4:25
Oh, there's nothing worse than that.
4:25
If it's taste I like it, it definitely is easier.
4:25
First couple minutes of a contest, I'm a fat guy having fun.
4:50
If there's a flavor I don't like, it hits me again and again and again.
4:54
Everything's more work when it's not a good taste.
4:55
At J66 DKC, do eating competitions have weight classes like fighting?
5:06
'Cause I'm positive that for my weight class, I could absolutely smoke most people.
5:06
There's no weight classes for the most part.
5:07
Men and women compete next to each other.
5:09
Big and small compete against each other.
5:11
The healthier you are, the harder you can push your body.
5:12
There are big guys who can eat a lot of food, great guys, but they can't do it in 10 minutes.
5:18
All the top eaters are pretty healthy.
5:20
I wish I was a little bit more fit, but I love to eat.
5:21
At Odal wants to know, anyone ever examined the health of competitive eaters?
5:25
I wonder, is it any worse than normal?
5:28
It's one of my biggest, is my doctor.
5:30
He does my blood work and there have been times where I go to him and I'm heavy, but he's really happy with the way everything's working right now.
5:36
Most competitions aren't necessarily healthy.
5:38
Any kind of athlete, I don't think we're much worse than normal.
5:40
Contests and practice take a toll.
5:43
Some contests are really hard on the body.
5:45
It takes days to recover.
5:45
Some contests are hard on the mouth.
5:47
If it's a fried food, my mouth is raw for a couple days.
5:50
There's always a recovery period after a contest.
5:52
You got to be willing to put up with it.
5:54
At 3T Productions wants to know, who ranks the competitive eaters?
5:58
Does it matter if you eat kale or pancakes or hot dogs?
6:01
America needs answers.
6:03
There is a league, Major League Eating.
6:06
Right now I'm ranked number one.
6:08
They ranked based off performance in contests.
6:10
There is a kale contest, there's pancakes and hot dogs, and hot dogs are the most important contest of the year.
6:16
Every food is a little bit different.
6:17
Every eater has their own strengths, weaknesses.
6:19
Some people are capacity eaters, some people are good swallowers.
6:23
My general training method is building tolerance.
6:24
If I'm in a kale contest, I have to practice with kale.
6:26
If it's hot dogs, I'm building my tolerance with hot dogs, getting my body comfortable with it.
6:35
At Smitty 883 wants to know, how do competitive eaters afford to train?
6:35
I assume they find all the all you can eat buffets that they haven't been kicked out of and plop a chair down and just go to town.
6:35
I very rarely go to buffets.
6:43
If I'm training for the kale contest or hot dog contest or baloney, I have to train with that food.
6:48
Most of the time sponsors will send me the food, which is awesome.
6:51
But also the food we're eating the contest is not that much when you think about it.
6:59
It cost about $4 to do a practice.
6:59
I'm not eating anything for two days leading up to that practice and then afterwards I'm not eating very much.
6:57
I'm eating vegetables.
7:02
At Mentor Competitive Eating Crowd, what's your favorite or go-to doughnut consumption technique for contests or for pleasure?
7:12
Because I love bitterness of black coffee with sweetness of doughnut, but for contests, most doughnut contests, we're not allowed to dunk doughnuts.
7:20
Alternate between eating, sip of water, alternate.
7:20
You find that rhythm and don't overstep your mouth.
7:20
At Sammy DDB wants to know, what do competitive hot dog eaters do the rest of the year that isn't July 4?
7:20
Do they have regular jobs or is there a professional Hot Dog Eating International circuit?
7:20
Yeah, there's tons of contests.
7:20
I have records in like 50 different foods and I love it.
7:20
Hot dogs is probably the biggest contest of the year, but I do everything from wings, ribs, pizza.
7:20
I stay busy.
7:20
At DG Jaden wants to know, how do competitive eaters not get hiccups?
7:20
I always be hiccuping whenever I eat quickly.
7:20
I never get hiccups.
7:50
I stopped getting hiccups after I was like 12 years old.
7:52
You might want to go to the doctor, Jaden.
7:53
I burp a lot of times during a contest.
7:55
We call it catching a burp.
7:57
You have to stop eating for a second so you can burp and you have to be careful not that nothing comes out.
8:01
Those are all the questions for today.
8:02
Thank you for watching competitive eating support.
