FLETCHER'S OLYMPIC CALZONE CHALLENGE | BeardMeatsFood

[@Beardmeatsfood]

I used to be a competitive Demeter… That’s a Greek mythology joke ;) Thanks for tuning in for another video folks! Today we’re in Liverpool taking on Fletcher’s ‘Olympic Calzone’ challenge. I hope you enjoy it and I’ll be back on Thursday at 7pm UK time with another... Yours hairily, BMF :)

[@stussyhuff]

Evening, did you receive, any surprises, for your birthday 🎂

[@jackw7341]

Love the videos

[@richardp1471]

That was a big challenge to take on. Excellent video thanks 👍 👍👍👍

[@GaryG1974]

I will not pretend to know anything about competitive eating, but I can appreciate the problem of "flavour boredom". Even when I eat "normal" sized meals, sometimes it just gets boring, even though I might still be hungry. Still, a great video Adam, as always, thank you.

[@tubecoatue]

Thank you for making the channel even more interesting with a loss. You didn't have to post this one but I'm really glad that you did. It makes the channel much more real.

[@chrisgorden879]

I agree, came to expect wins all the time which makes it a little less interesting to watch. Also proves Beard may just be human.

[@ryanbarker5217]

a million views isn't something to not post, though. you're just not going to leave that money on the table.

Thanks for the spoiler

[@jonahweinshenker]

Beard is a real one.

[@dandeveny4513]

The bar has a facebook page, there are 2 photos of other people doing this challenge, both got about half the size of what was served up to Beard.

[@KpK1Cioby]

I saw a guy failing it and it was almost just as big, to be fair he didn't have the good camerawork and the food looked a lot uglier, it's clear they put in the effort here. But also I think professionals should get bigger challenges as to not ruin them for normal folk. Like I doubt I can beat Beard's time even if I was starving for 7 days, he finishes some challenges in 12 minutes even tho you get an hour. Tho they should be out front with the rules.

[@GabeShowNetwork]

@@KpK1Cioby They are made for normal people, not pros, they should be the same size everytime

[@tg3162]

That much pepperoni AND that much fries is just insane. A noble effort.

[@mr.o523]

He should've started with the fries after opening up the calzone

[@joebarnes3459]

Agreed squire

[@MaZEEZaM]

Way too much pepperoni for my taste, it was basically just pepperoni, cheese and a tomato base, not enough variety of flavour, especially for eating such a quantity.

[@Strongman2474]

"You have to do this challenge again brother"

[@jailcatjones3250]

No such thing as too much pepperoni

[@theonlydjtopcat]

That challenge should have just been the calzone. The chips and sauce addition was shady in my opinion.

@@Beardmeatsfood on my 2nd viewing of this video - that is a TON of pepperoni

[@HellSpartanZ]

@@Beardmeatsfood i bet Joel Hansen could squash it in 20 mins

[@laurieislaurie]

It's hard to say without knowing the exact weight, but for sure 30mins is harsh as most challenges are an hour. THAT SAID, you have to question Beard's tactics here. There were better ways to come at this one. I think he can beat it if he eats the food in a different order and stats mentally strong- he was defeated at the 15min mark. Needs someone pumping him up, demanding he finish, like a coach, as opposed to his g/f just making jokes. Then again who cares, it's just YT content

[@Beardmeatsfood]

too kind ben

[@eckoness]

[@G-Tay]

To have the "Great Beard" fail with so much food left of the 30 minutes challenge, then you have to say that 30 minutes is NOT long enough to complete the challenge!!!

[@harrythecod7976]

Agreed. An hour would be more realistic for most people to make it a challenge worth trying. If Bear failed, who would be brave enough, or mad enough, to try? Kinda defeats the whole purpose and fun if it becomes unachievable.

[@JohnDoeEagle1]

I have seen Beard eat on many of these videos. I don't think anybody could finish that based upon what I have seen him easily do before.

[@click8708]

@@JohnDoeEagle1 I think its more down to how hot it was over capacity, if it was warm and not scolding he would have koed it.

[@porkbelly0713]

Yes, too many carbs for only 30 minutes

[@lgkfamily]

@@click8708 Yep. It's the water in the tomato sauce that is slow to cool. The bread acts like an insulating blanket to hold that heat in. I think he might fair better if he begins by cutting the edges off and peeling the top of the calzone off to help the tomato sauce cool faster.

[@Justme-lq3wv]

expected you to destroy the meal and then at around 18:30 minutes i shouted out "NO NEVER" As i slowly started to realise that it was getting very debatable if you had the time and the will to finish it all and slowly i came to the realisation that it was All over, you weren't going to do it, the challenge was winning and I then shed a tear for myself and for you knowing that any person with a Beard like that will not be seen crying, I can see why it was too much for you especially with those Dirty fries on the side, but you have to go back and beat this one, strategy will definitely help with the pepperoni and I will be googling Calzone after i finish my comment as I have never heard of it, it looks like a pizza that ate itself, much love for showing a loss as well as all of the wins, thanks for your entertainment love to you and mrs Beard and Catch you on the next one 👍
