Since Trevor didn't get too many bites, I'll go ahead and take the bait!

Ben1996123 had one of my ideas, but I'm unsure if he read the full thread like I did to post it. Anyway, here goes:

Glad to see you are sticking to the regulation about having "At most, one logo"

Next event:
OH



Edit: Or BLD/Multi
Edit 2: I may try this when I get more bananas... but I'm not posting it on youtube... just sayin'

Followed up with Feet solving! Shortly followed by TeamBLD! Could make it real fun and TeamBLD Feet! Or...TeamBLD thighs...


This thread become very popular for such a silly thing. anyway, I tried this with my sister but she beat me. I didn't even time it but it was somewhere around 1:40 (yes, I know it's very slow)

My sister just beat me again, I give up trying to race, it's not even healthy.

You really can't say you are surprised by this, can you? Unless there's somethign you need to tell us? Come on, at least Trevor has the right idea!

As I said before, maybe there is a reason. ;)



I would really like to see Kirjava try this ;)

You guys have really made me want to do this. I just bought some the other day, too. I'll see what I can do about getting a video of this.

I know a few girls without a gag reflex...certainly they'd be able to sub10 this challenge...
 
I don't expect anybody to believe me, but I got a 17.99 second on my first try.

My method: I open the banana by breaking it in half, and peeling each partially broken half. I used a yellow banana with few brown spots. My eating style involves eating several small-medium bites, and swallowing. I don't chew. If you look at videos of Kobayashi eating hot dogs, you'll have a good idea of how I try to eat the bananas, except I only eat one half at a time.
 
I picked up a banana but it's not quite ripe :| So I'll wait a day for my attempt.

Incidentally, here's a guy who ate almost 30 bananas a day for a month with no ill consequences: http://www.nomeatathlete.com/fruitarian-experiment/. So the fatal limit is definitely way over that, for those who are wondering.

Fruitatarianism makes me laugh, but it's definitely true that you won't die from having lots of bananas. I wouldn't recommend a raw diet like this to anybody long term. Even with supplementation, you're pretty much asking for vitamin deficiency. The whole idea that more than 10% of your calories from fat is too much is definitely false. Humans used to eat high fat, moderate protein, low carbohydrate diets, and they were very healthy.

There's no reason to be afraid of healthy fats, and there's no reason to be afraid of protein from meats. The views on that website are very flawed. I can definitely see why somebody would avoid grains. I'm a big supporter of a no grain, no legume diet if you do it right, but I can't say I support vitamin d, vitamin b12, and omega-3 deficiency. Not to mention the fact that you're setting yourself up for hypoglycemia, osteoporosis, tooth decay and poor circulation. If anybody is seriously considering trying this as a long term diet, please don't.
 
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

New event: most bananas in 25 bites

Does swallowing whole without biting down count as a bite?

By the "I know a few girls..." I suppose I should have clarified. These were all girls I knew to steer clear from, since these claims were all self-proclaimed, and I had positive reviews about such girls. However, if they can swallow one whole, that clearly means they'd win this competition. I haven't tried this competition yet, however, I'm still trying to get in touch with a few old acquaintances.
 
I did a banana race with my friend and got it on video. My friend also ate one in 14 seconds and I also got that on camera so I got some stuff to upload!

NEW WR! Sadly, I won't be the WSBA record holder now, but oh well :p

Edit: AHHH, 13.87. Not on video. I'm so going to do another single on video later, and break the 15 second mark for sure.....This has gone a little to far, I think :p
