[@kristynj9287]

the guy who screamed “it’s a spicy pickle” has me dead 😂

[@phillipmier2589]

He owns all the jethros

[@Lulu212x]

15 minutes only for this monster sandwich?! Are you kidding me?!!!

[@idoobbberz_tv6676]

Yeah half an hour would have been a lot more generous, maybe 20-25 minutes actually

[@thanoseid2883]

20 minutes sounds like enough.

[@alexwright5419]

That challenge is a little too insane for 15 minutes. I think Adam could’ve done it in 30 or even just 20 minutes

[@123akdr]

15 minutes to finish all of that is ridiculous

[@jshshh1041]

Pretty much a guarantee an average sized person won't finish it. One of the keys to eating challenges is really breaking down the food so it takes up less volume in your stomach. Imagine how quickly you need to swallow to eat a pound of food in 3 minutes

[@LzZy__Clipz]

Grand Pooba I know right!!!!!

[@DaScorpionSting]

Agree

[@THENAMEISQUICKMAN]

@@jshshh1041 You can absolutely eat a pound of food in three minutes. The difficulty is doing it five times in a row.

[@jayy240sx]

In my opinion you should get 25/30 minutes for this challenge

[@thewachannel4537]

Notice at 0:30 Adam Emmenecker's Basketball Jersey number is #15. That's why the time limit on this challenge is 15 minutes long.

[@nickbreau8130]

Why couldn't his number be like 24 or something lol

[@phatqhunt715]

That intro didn’t age well.

[@zscuffed_]

Creamsoda Gaming lmaooo sure didn’t

[@c.s.9427]

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@basiccodingwithadam8125]

Creamsoda Gaming your parents never told you this but you were a mistake and thus making comments on bat eating with no personal knowledge

[@phatqhunt715]

Basic Coding With Adam what’s that about mate?

[@Mateoski97]

@@basiccodingwithadam8125 He was making a joke. What's your problem? Wake up on the wrong side of your mother this morning?

[@Jejdjejbfjf]

I feel like in some episodes, maybe the later ones, Adam looked like he didnt enjoy the foods anymore. Even when he watched the owners prepare the food, he looked upon them with dread rather than excitement lol. He tried to act excited but I could tell dread was the stronger feeling. He was analyzing whether he could finish the food rather than enjoy the food.

[@ascarilotus7]

Mentioning eating a bat as a good thing shows how outdated this video has become

[@commentspae]

Digression: that was probably just a standard accepted action in America until the virus started considering how many Conservaties live in it.

[@professormuro]

Don't tell Ozzy

[@Cessna172SNavIII]

Comment Spaepanion *conservatives? What does politics have to do with that?

[@commentspae]

...Oh, fucking Hell. We should REALLY just stop undermining the effect governance has on general topics because politics has a relation to fucking everything. It's another translation of "rules" and it means the same damn thing as "rules."

[@Cessna172SNavIII]

Comment Spaepanion well sure, but I still do not understand how conservatives have anything to do with the op’s comment. Please do enlighten me

[@qceaz11]

I have always thought 15 minutes wasn't enough time for that but I must admit that would be one hell of a cheat day meal😋

[@Kokumaru_art]

Can they just make me this and me just eat it, dont care about the challenge lol

[@mrtjwitdabs6949]

back when the crowd wasn’t annoying and obnoxious

[@isiraratnayake9491]

Ikr in the newer episodes the crowd is too loud they really need to fix their volume. Also get a guy without a mustache, hair and food is gross.

[@BeardedDanishViking]

No they were still very annoying here. It's so fake, and staged as well. Ugh.

[@GoatPersonThing]

@@BeardedDanishViking no shit, it’s for tv what do you expect, of corse the audience is staged, it’s used in nearly every show that has an audience, just for the added drama

[@swampy7139]

0:05 so *that's* how it started...

[@TeamLegacyFTW]

Nah.. The polar ice caps hadn't melted at that time so the virus didn't melt into the ocean and affect the fish yet. That's why it emerged in Asian cities, their massive seafood consumption. The more you know🌈

[@Danny-wt5xf]

@@TeamLegacyFTW no Asians just can't resist their urge to eat everything that moves

[@TeamLegacyFTW]

@@Danny-wt5xf #metoo 👌😋

[@Danny-wt5xf]

@randomm User1237589 a majority of seasonings originated from Europe

[@hiddenbutdeadly]

Two strips of cheddar and two strips of smoked bacon (video shows three strips)

[@tntmutt8817]

He looks like his soul left his body when Adam touched his hand at 1:25

[@surfer1826]

It all looks so delicious .... don't care about finishing it all, just want to try it !!! 🤤🤤🤤

[@hiddenbutdeadly]

wait..WAIT..FIFTEEN MINUTES?...5 pounds..a good amount of starchy potatoes AND the food is piping hot? i mean GEEZ...the DC challenge was a load of bread and starch..but you had 25 minutes removing the pile of "fries" and making it just the sandwich..that wold be more reasonable

[@janetweyer9415]

hiddenbutdeadly I was thinking 30 at minimum.

[@DesertRose808]

Ok...I would totally eat that. Lol can I just order it without having to do the challenge?

[@TH3L3G3ND]

I'm sure you just have to tell them that

[@tomfoolery5211]

15 minutes is such a scam

[@pcutta24]

I am a simple man I see Adam I click

[@davidbachelor4567]

Now this is the real man vs food Adam 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽

[@anthonymcmillan8273]

F the challenge all that goodness can't be rushed when eaten! It'll take me a half HR👍!

[@Winter-kp8sg]

He looks like adams brother at the brisket moment

[@eddiemartin8395]

Adam didn’t even look hungry at all this time

[@joeyburch6626]

When the hell was double dribbling a good thing??

[@scottbecker4367]

When you don't get caught 😉

[@ron9ist]

Has this man won any challenge? Have been binge watching him not a single victory so far

[@rubbenn91]

Man its good that you are still alive, lol

[@martink7945]

The actual challenge is to get no heartattack eating this sandwich 😂

[@thesausage351]

Green shirt hype man at 5:19 looked like Papa Het!

One of my favorite shows

The 1st time I see food win before this man

[@crissreznor]

4:58 Bite that spicy pickle !!!

[@Chuck91]

I’m only now starting to realize that man vs food is back. I thought they were playing old episodes lol

[@TeamLegacyFTW]

This is old lol . .

[@Chuck91]

Lou Sensei yeah the point is the show continues up to today.

[@OliviaBrookeee]

Mannn I wanna do this challenge 😭😭😭 looks soooo good

[@Joseph-wh5of]

1:48 The owner doesn't look amused.

[@stevewilliams4277]

3:18 take out the cheeder sauce I'll eat that

[@NickWuebker]

I think if the time limit was 20 minutes, it's a photo finish. Possibly a victory for Adam.

[@Robi2009]

I would eat that but the 15 min time limit is insane - that's the bottle neck of the challenge

[@lmatos369]

Now being recommended lol

[@chrisnorris2076]

Beard Meets Food would make short work of this challenge, 1000 percent

[@amiraelkhoury185]

Thanks, dear

half hour should have been the time.

[@BlackIjs]

That really is nuts.

[@jaredmk4897]

I feel full by looking at this burger

[@thesnipersmith3436]

I once tried this challenge, and I had half left what adam had in the plate when timer ran out. The only downside was that I almost puked after the challenge, well I guess that's what you get when you stuff your stomach too much food too fast. And I did this with my friends at home 😂

[@ellenbrouwerartist]

This show is perfect Jaboody Dubs material.

[@offworldatom8850]

Omg Ozzy is patient Zero!!! Bat to human. Hahahaha

[@Movielover123451]

15 minutes is not enough time 😂

[@ivanb1852]

That food could feed up 5 people, and I could eat that for a week

[@P3teR501]

Did I hear “she ate a bat?”

[@GoatPersonThing]

He* Osborne ate a bad on stage a long time ago, this was probably 30 years before the virus

[@LtJason20]

No toilet is safe from him. 🚽

[@mk3a]

If I was Adam, I would have eaten that spicy pickle in between the different sandwich components.

[@round105]

Looking back he lost more than he won, and casey has done more spicy challenges

[@thecorndoghero7329]

They need to add time to the challenge

It looks sooooo good

[@bathcurtains5766]

My stomach at 1am could do this

[@sambarrett859]

Looks so good

[@Jazzzzer456]

I think the owner put 2 photos on the wall just to make it seem like 2 folks finished it when they didnt...so he gets more sales...nice trick but he didnt fool me😍😎😅😄😃

[@fishman9240]

I inhale my food , I have big plates and it's all gone in a few minutes

[@GoatPersonThing]

Nobody needs to know that big boy, you’re just calling yourself fat in that comment lol, nice way to give yourself a heart attack too

[@lukez5117]

Defited again, however 👍🏻🥃 bro

[@cuellar4500]

I wanna eat that so bad 🤤🤤🤤

[@destroyerinazuma96]

A good strategy might have been to put it all in a blender and eat the mush. But that probably would not have been allowed. The only food challenge I ever attempted was an ice cream one, and I came with friends cause we had challenged ourselves. 3 L of ice cream vs seven guests is manageable.

[@Biosynthnut]

30min.. Maybe 20.

[@simplyamazing1993]

I don’t believe that basketballer ate that in 15 minutes He might have eaten all of it but it wasn't as much as Adam had to eat

Maybe the crown distracted him too much.
