Recently crowned Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest champ Matt Stonie and the longtime king he dethroned, Joey Chestnut, plan to square off in a chicken wing-eating contest on Saturday. After that, it’s just a race against the clock.

When all was said and done, Stonie consumed 13,400 calories, 780 grams of fat, 1,400 grams of carbohydrates, 1,180 grams of sugar, and 212 grams of protein in a little over half an hour. We’re genuinely impressed that Stonie is still alive.
The two are at the top of competitive eating’s food chain, and plenty of interesting dynamics will be at play in this competition.
“I’m going all out”, Stonie says before starting the challenge. He bites his tongue in between spoonfuls of raspberry ice cream and admits feeling full about halfway through.
All of that ice cream wasn’t easy for Stonie to down. Per the video’s description, he wouldn’t recommend anyone else trying this insane ice cream challenge.
Despite getting an arctic wave of brain freeze less than a minute in, the 23-year-old went to work and downed the entire batch in 35 minutes, 40 seconds.

“What was I thinking?” he asks. “But it sounded like a good idea on paper”.
