IMPOSSIBLE 13LB CHEESESTEAK CHALLENGE | With Spicy Chicken & Gyro's | NYC Street Food

[@bigchungus1141]

If Joel says it’s daunting the avg man shouldn’t even try. It’s incredible what this man does and this video really puts it into perspective on how much it takes to put down food like this. God bless you for the endless content my household loves it and we look forward to every upload.

I had the pleasure of meeting Joel and seeing him do a challenge in person and let me tell you, watching it on KZbin doesn’t do it Justice. When you see the portion size up close and personal it’s insane he can put it down.

Hi j.c..what challenge?? Did you witness in person??? Just curious..thanks..seen Joel's videos 📹..amazing..its not like he rushes through them..unless!!! Hes in a compettion..think .molly schuller. N geoff esper..Joey chestnut..are the only other earers..I. Joel's league..

[@nicthemickatx]

I bet this dude could legit pull your arms out of socket and beat you to death with them, with ease. And because he can he's the nicest dude, and he wouldn't generally. Eating protein like that builds pure hard muscle and all those animal fats turn into test. I bet this dude is nice as hell.

[@froggneptune9240]

Absolutely insane challenge, well done. I watch a lot of eating vids, and I cannot guess if either you or Molly are the #1 in the world eater right now, perhaps tied. She seems to be very fast, where as you might have an edge in capacity.

[@Malachor01]

I love Joel and his vids but Molly is on another level my friend. She has about 30-40% more capacity (can eat 23lbs of meat alone.... so probably more if the food types are mixed) and at least double the speed.

[@LetArtsLive]

So him and Molly should have a eat off and boy would they get a lot of views. Is she the one that was in Texas and ate that giant chunk of meat. I don't think somebody should keep doing this extreme eating for an extended time because time will run out

[@strangemarkings]

@@LetArtsLive Joel has eaten against Molly a few times, check out their pumpkin pie videos. Molly can eat simply enormous amounts of food, often into the 20 lb range

[@MrBaronCabron]

Don't rule Geoff Esper out. People sleep on him because he doesn't push himself in co-op videos that much but when he goes he can do 20lbs+ also.

[@froggneptune9240]

@@MrBaronCabron I actually considered coming back to revise my message to add Geoff in to be honest. He's definitely a dark horse in competition space. The one thing that holds him back I think is that he is older than these younger eaters. I agree with you though.

If you eat once a day you can eat more calories without gaining weight

[@pureforce469]

What are the effects of this on your cholesterol and digestive system?

[@nicthemickatx]

Pick up enough heavy shit every day and eating stupid amounts of food(buckets), stops seeking so crazy. Per my doctor for the last decade I need 4k-6k calories a day to maintain my weight in the summer time here. I almost died because I wasn't eating enough for the amount of physical activity I do. If I eat between 4k & 5k a day I'll lose about a pound a week. Guys that eat professionally can pump iron for fun and become test factories. I salute them.

Welcome to the "We don't want anyone to win this challenge" challenge. That many sandwiches would have be a challenge regardless, but it certainly looked like they overstuffed them to up the challenge level. Great that you were able to push through it.

[@daveyjones7391]

The individual sandwiches seemed like normal Philly cheesesteak sized sandwiches, at least in my area. They may not have wanted anyone to complete it so they added six or seven items total though 😆 I’ve seen other videos where they say the challenge is 5 lbs, but they make it 8, or add way too much salt. Now those places are bad-faith. This spot seems good.

[@Alltimefox]

As much as I love watching Matt Stonie, I don’t think he would be able to finish the whole meal. Joel’s stomach to consume a shit ton of food is insane.
