Re:For the love of God!A lot of the record holders for eating are skinny.
Look at this guy - the first on the list. He weighs 132 pounds,
- 47 pickled peppers in 8 minutes
- 24" Pizza: 7 1/2 Extra Large Bacci Pizza Slices / 15 Minutes/ July 9, 2005
- Birthday Cake: Five Pounds/ TripRewards 1st Birthday / 11 Minutes, 26 Seconds/ May 10, 2005
- Chili: 1 1/2 gallon Stagg Chili / 10 minutes
- Corn Dogs: 12 Fletcher's Corny Dogs/ State Fair of Texas / 10 minutes/ Sept. 28, 2003
- Huevos Rancheros: 7.75 lbs Huevos Rancheros / 10 minutes/March 18, 2006
- Jalapenos, Pickled, 8-Minute Record: 247 pickled jalapeno peppers/State Fair of Texas / 8 minutes/Oct. 8, 2006
- SPAM: 6 pounds of SPAM from the can/ SPAMARAMA / 12 minutes/ Apr. 3, 2004
- Tex Mex Rolls: 30 Tex Mex Rolls/ GameWorks at Great Lakes Crossing / 12 minutes/ Mar. 12, 2005
Come on - a 132 pound guy ate 6 pounds of spam in 12 minutes.
She ate more than 8 pounds of sausage in 10 minutes, 8.4 pounds of baked beans in less than 3 minutes, 11 pounds of cheesecake in 9 minutes, and so many more records that I'm not even going to list them.
Or this guy drinking a 22-ounce slurpee in 9 seconds, 13 pounds of poutine, more than 15 pounds of strawberry shrotcake, and many other records.
None of them are obese 300-pound tubs of lard.

Re:Electric Cost Per Mile is Cheaper
Well of course that would mean the rich nations would have give up some of their booty. Do you tell me it's impossible?

Re:Unions are a good idea
You're joking, right?
Let's do the math. We'll say $50K is the "great" salary you reference. And minimum wage is $5.15 in most states (http://www.dol.gov/esa/minwage/america.htm). My calculator tells me that to work for twice minimum wage ($10.30), you'd work 4,854 hours per year. Dividing that into 52 weeks (neglecting holidays, vacation, etc...) gives me 93 hours per week, consistently. Heck, I suppose if I calculate overtime rates over 40 hours I could shave 10 hours or so off the weekly total.
Your point has some merit, in that many companies are pushing fewer employees to do more, but your example is flawed to the extreme. Unions were valid in changing life-threatening working conditions, but have become as bloated and inefficient as the massive corporations they fought. The day my industry unionizes, and I find that my contract negotiated job description doesn't allow me to plug in a network cable in a server, is the day I turn to my dream job of professional non-unionized athlete (http://www.ifoce.com/index.php). -
Re:BBC/OU "Hollywood Science"
nobody can eat 50 eggs.
The BBC reports that at a competition in Indiana, an astonished crowd of more than 22,000 people cheered Sonya Thomas on as she ate a whopping 65 hard-boiled eggs in only six minutes and 40 seconds.
The International Federation of Competitive Eating has many other records. -

Re:On a more serious note
What if they had a few of these guys stand in the same spot?
I, for one, am alarmed.
