Dr. John is simply bringing out a message to the world; Eating fast food is bad for you. If someone dies there, it's the customer's fault. The restaurant has warning labels everywhere and Dr. John has made it very clear that the restaurant is dangerous. If the heart attack grill didn't exist, those people would have died in some other place like McDonalds or something.

The restaurant should not be shut down. We all seem to forget that WE are the consumers. WE have the power choose where and how we spend our money. If you're dangerously overweight, and choose to eat at The Heart Attack Grill, you're doing it at your own risk. Any doctor or dietician will tell you eating there multiple times a week is going to end your life. It's not Heart attack Grills, or any other fast food restaurants responsibility to tell you what you should / shouldn't eat. That's YOUR responsibility. People seriously need to stop blaming everyone for their problems, and educate themselves. If you choose not to educate yourself on the dangers of eating excessive amounts of greasy foods, then don't blame others for the damage you cause to your body.

[@aryana5502]

Yeah but you do know that a lot of obese people have a very hard time eating less food and healthier food? It's all a mind thing..those people need help. This restaurant is way more fattening than burger king and mcdonalds combined. It's like he's purposely wanting people to die from this by making the foods as fattening as possible. At least the other unhealthy restaurants have healthier options unlike this one. ...and LOL at the part where you get spanked for not eating all of your big ass burger than can feed 4 people lol.

[@screaminggecko4280]

It's in the restaurant's name, "Heart Attack Grill". They give you a crap load of calories, of course you'll be having a higher chance of a heart attack, they are eating like 6000 calories.

[@123RADIOactive]

I have more respect for that guy than those who make trouble for him. Because at least he's truthful. He's purposely saying that this food is bad for you, so stay away. So anyone with common sense knows that everyone who eats there is aware of the risks and he is relieved of any liabilities that was caused by the food. Anyone who tries to hold fast food restaurants responsible for the cause of their heart attacks or sudden on going illness is, in my opinion, extremely incompetent for trying to find excuses to blame somebody. Because no one forced you to go, no one forced the food down your throat, and you could've ordered a salad and water but you chose not to. You can't just walk into a fast food joint and sue a fast food restaurant because you got a heart attack from from eating food that everyone knows was bad for you to begin with, you just can't. Doing so is kind of a waste of everyone's time The only way you might have a chance of winning a lawsuit case against the fast food joint is if there was an injury that happened there that had nothing to do with them serving you fatty food. Like say you slipped from a slippery floor and gotten injured because of it, or they accidentally served you food that was improperly handled (Undercooked, served you food that was slightly spoiled, etc.), or a legitimate reason such as that, THEN you might be able to have good enough reason to sue. Otherwise you're just going to waste everyone's time with a lawsuit about something that wasn't their fault to begin with.

[@mariocomparan5473]

This is a legitimate question: What makes these burgers more dangerous than any other fast food chain restaurant burger place?

[@Embracesuck]

They're extra greasy and extra big, and they don't care about what the public says, so they're not under the pressure to make their food healthier like other junk food resturants.

I typically take a nice walk around the block after I eat something with high calories and I can eat bad food and I only weigh like 170 lbs (That's good for my age my doctor says), I'm 18 so I have a long life to look forward to yet and I don't want to waste it!

As a retired MD, who looked after countless people during my career as a family doctor, many of whom had diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, and other ailments primarily brought about by their poor lifestyle and eating habits, I applaud what "Dr. John" is doing at the heart Attack Grill. He is sending us all a message, laced with a bit of humor. If you continue the argument that his restaurant should be closed because what it is serving is bad for people, then you have to also say all the casinos in Las Vegas should be closed, because what they are promoting (gambling) is bad for people. There is an obesity epidemic in the western world, which is affecting not just adults, but kids, and it is very serious. The unfortunate deaths of some of his overweight promoters were not directly caused by the food they ate at his restaurant, but by their incredibly unhealthy lifestyles, which the restaurant is attempting to demonstrate. Good on ya, Dr. John! I am looking forward to visiting the Heart Attack Grill on my next visit to Vegas in a few weeks. I won't be ordering a Quadruple Bypass Burger however. I will stick to a regular burger and fries. Problem is, I am likely to finish this meal which means I won't get spanked by one of the "nurses" there, something I think I would enjoy.

[@theantiveganchannel3596]

since you're a MD then you should know humans have an acidic stomach(animal flesh digestion ) and a gallbladder(for saturated animal fat digestion ) Meat is species specific diet for humans... Tell us how it's bad for us ? the obesity epidemic is caused directly by consuming plant sludge all day doctors are quite responsible for this... since they push this plant sludge food pyramid diet (most doctors push the fruits and vegetables as being healthy ) If Fruits are so healthy then why do they have so much sugar?? if Grains (grass seeds) are so healthy then why do they have so much sugar?? if vegetables are so healthy then why do they have so much sugar?? Leafy greens are also toxic including broccoli the 1,000 and 1,000s of junk food items on the shelf they claim is "unhealthy" is made from the same exact grains, vegetables and fruits they claim is "healthy " This is a true double think (the acceptance of or mentaI capacity to accept contrary opinions or beliefs at the same time)
