[@therealsamreid]

Thanks so much for watching!! What food-related challenge should I take on next??

[@official.kh3m159]

10,000 calorie challenge😮

[@alexcarver6230]

Beer mile!

[@jigglypuffy]

I'd love to see more running/fitness content as well as food challenges! Finding ways to combine them like this video is super fun too

[@TheGrillSergeant]

Heart Attack Grill in Las Vegas?

[@finn_english]

Go vegan for a month!

[@jacabo136]

At, 4:14 the guy who stomped on his box was the same dude who won the event. He filled the box with water before stomping on it so that the soggy donuts would go down easier. I believe he ate his dounuts in about 4.5 minutes. His overall time was 33:13 according to the results page. Subtracting the donut split and dividing by 5 gives him around a 5:45/mile on average. He's a beast of a runner. Also, the video doesn't mention how brutal the hills on this race really are. The first half of the race is almost EXCLUSIVELY downhill, which means that you are ONLY running uphill after eating the dozen donuts. The best strategy for sure is to run fast and let the hills do the work on the first half and then bust it out the second half. Respect for doing the full dozen as well. I only got through six before calling it quits when the guy next to me threw up in his donut box. Running was the easy part, everyone I talked to said they didn't even feel the donuts on the run back after the first half mile. The entire event was a test of whether or not you could eat 12 hard, cold, tasteless donuts while your jaw was numb.

[@joebob5482]

You should 100% be over 1,000,000 subscribers! Your production value is so high and your ideas and concepts are so original!!!

[@joshuastoltzfus4910]

Agreed, but I'm sure it'll happen soon enough

[@WeatherWiz]

It'll happen. He's almost to 20k and I subbed when he was only at 5k. 100k will be sooner than you know it!

[@zachherbon2031]

True facts

[@Faceplay2]

His channel take a lot longer to grow because he’s doing a niche audience type of channel. People don’t care about fast food topics like they do for something like true crime so there’s a lot less people on KZbin that are going to watch his stuff.

[@LassetersLab]

Vance is a real one 🍩

[@Gweivyth]

The editing on these videos is so fantastic.

[@therealsamreid]

Thank you!! Appreciate you saying that

[@oneday7574]

What a fun looking race, I wish they had this with a whole pizza instead of donuts. I can’t eat a whole cupcake without feeling nauseous but I can down a whole pizza in one sitting easy

[@therealsamreid]

Now there’s an idea!!! 🤔✍🏼

[@mzple]

@@therealsamreid For real, it's the sweetness that would make me yak.

[@annhancock9223]

LETS START THE #FINDVANCE CAMPAIGN! We need a Sam/Vance reunion episode of the Studio Revue

[@digitalharmony26]

This channel is horrifically underrated! Everything about the videos are phenomenal and you are very enjoyable to watch. Keep it up, I hope to see your channel thriving soon enough. You absolutely deserve it!

[@therealsamreid]

Thanks so much for saying that!! I appreciate the kind words

[@digitalharmony26]

@@therealsamreid I greatly appreciate your content. I’ve been watching your channel the last three hours since I discovered it 😅 thank you for what you do.

You are definitely on the verge of all your hard work paying off. Keep up the amazing content! We are here for it.

I lived in Raleigh the past few years- it’s pretty exciting to see how popular the race has gotten

Why?

@@jordan19862000 why what

[@kathleenreid7154]

Vance is a real one 💯

[@spencer4329]

7:51 per mile for 5 miles is pretty killer, I can hardly keep that pace for 3. Especially not after eating a dozen donuts 😂

[@kmackblack]

My 16 year old son is convinced he could do this “no problem”

[@wantsomecorn]

Shoutout to Vance for being a true bro. Maybe you help him through this gauntlet next year?

[@AtlasnAlexa]

Vance is a real one!

[@PickleRickSanchez]

That classic burrito slap😂

[@sammc324]

I've been binging your channel today after finding you via your Taco Bell video. I've been having almost constant panic attacks all weekend and your content has been the exact kind of light hearted but still interesting and stimulating thing I need - and then every few minutes you remind me that even when it doesn't feel like it, its gonna be okay. You have seriously helped me out of a rough patch, thank you.

[@camerenisonfire]

Glad you got to participate and show off one of NC State's classic events. I'm an alumn and never even got the nerve to attempt it. Congrats on finishing.

[@bobulele]

Vance is a real one.

[@GloShoes]

The production value on this video is great. Your channel is very underrated

[@Hoshie7]

LETS GO VANCE! OH YEAH BABY

[@nathanpgraves]

Hey I make an appearance in this at 2:37 and 3:41! Was a fun event, but I took too long to eat the donuts. Excellent job with 45 minutes for the whole thing

[@therealsamreid]

No way! That’s awesome. Appreciate you watching!

[@nathanpgraves]

A friend sent it along since they knew I ran in the event. Very well produced, I'll definitely be watching more of your videos

[@eoic4721]

vance is a real one

[@BaronP91]

You just got yourself a subscriber, you mad bastard. I dont know how I stumbled onto your videos but I am really happy I did.

[@babyzillakilla7784]

So glad I found your channel! Keep doin great!

[@JagsFanCave]

Love your channel! So many original videos!

[@TheGrillSergeant]

Yesssssss!!! Epic video. Im so freakin excited for you. Your growth is destined 🙏

6:45 mile is hella good!

This was amazing!! 👏🏼

Such a great video this channel is gonna get big soon

[@tanookiitoad]

Your videos would always show up on my recommended and I was convinced this was a million subscriber channel. Crazy quality. Keep it up!

[@marcoguad]

Found you a few days ago and have loved your content. Subscribed ✅

[@bubzxii]

ur my fav youtuber you’re so entertaining

[@misfit2022]

Eating doughnuts definitely wouldn’t bring more joy to my life especially during a run and felt sickly just watching

[@cooper2904]

Remember me when you get big, because I can tell you’re channel is about to take off! I really enjoyed this video, and am looking forward to more! Just subbed!

[@anthonyizquierdo5467]

Completely agree with the other commenters on here. The videos are amazing. Found the channel through you tube recommended and binge watched all the videos. Definitely subbed and looking forward to more great content in the future.

[@therealsamreid]

Thanks Anthony!!! Appreciate that

[@chasebeaudin]

Great video Sam!

[@nitroexe]

awesome video! super awesome i might want to try this it seems pretty chaotic :)

[@brb4000]

Your videos are so good, I watch every ad all the way through 😂

[@swiftyrox2]

good work sam

[@NotPalliot]

I want to do something like this! Maybe without the donuts, though.

[@jamiegrech117]

Hey man just subbed to this channel because I just saw one of your vids that you uploaded 9 months ago about the cheapest fast food item just want to say keep it up man!

[@FriendlyStegosaurus]

Damn I missed this. Turning on notifications now!

[@TomBurgundy]

Hell yeah Sam 🏃‍♂️🍩

[@bruce4139]

Great job, I find water makes it worse and if you make a fist and hold your arm as tight as possible against your side it helps keep the food down in that situation

[@therealsamreid]

Good to know!!! I’ll keep that in mind for future endeavors haha

[@WhitlSam]

Can confirm, this race is harder than it looks. Doughnuts 9 and 10 were the worst for me when I did this years ago. That and the whole running part. Probably should have trained ahead of time for it. Congrats on the 45 minute time!

[@ekawrecker]

Gave me a good laugh thanks. Suggest though you don’t use watermarked photos. Buy them if you value them and avoid any licensing issues. Also helps the photographers who took them. 😊

[@EyeDeeTenTee]

Your channel deserves so much more attention, another great vid

[@brettbarbour3174]

I live in Raleigh this is a awesome race

[@0p41]

How does my man only have

[@Diff3RentBreed]

Aside from the fact that I can't run that fast, I wouldn't want to eat that fast! 😂 I'd do the challenge with no time limit. Way easier.

[@Axecon1]

Done it 4 times and completed it successfully 3 times during my high school and college years, best time of 55 minutes. It's a fun race but quite the herculean challenge and something I'm not going to return to anytime soon

[@worldtravelerjon]

You should have a million subs.

[@zipcc]

I have done this race twice before. if you start comming across the line around the hour mark or after the last 1/4 mile is all landmines of people not holding their donuts. If you like seeing people loose it you should go just to watch the excitement.

[@pb2959]

Salute to the FF running in full turnout gear!!!

[@FirstnameLastname-nz2dq]

The running would be the easy part. Not throwing up is the real challenge.

[@connerlovespickles]

This shit made my dad double over laughing

[@mrbasketball9868]

Why do you only have 19k subs?!? Great video!!

[@briankelly1240]

I like 5ks, and live in Raleigh, but never doing this race, thank you for doing it for me haha

[@fallenstairs2366]

how are you only ay 19.2k subs this video quality is insane

[@tycops]

i was researching ncu and heard of the krispy kreme challenge. i never realized that it had to do with running, just heard of the name. im a runner and it would be cool to try this

[@Ryan-wr8fx]

I'm nowhere near Raleigh, but I want to do this so much

[@VenomRedd1400]

I watched your Taco Bell doc and it made me want to watch all of your videos so I did and now I’m a big fan keep it up

[@desired4558]

Hilarious!!! New sub here.

[@pepperonipi]

criminally under rated

[@porourangi10]

This dude for sure gonna have 1m subs soon

[@rafaelbriceno5599]

I go to State and I ran it for the first time with my friends. Absolutely killed us but nobody threw up haha. Definitely will do it again next year

[@kevinlove_]

noti gang

[@TrueCrimeQueen]

❤❤❤

[@mrjoejon6882]

Do another marathon with that homie

[@CrazySOB_]

"SIx minutes that's embaressing" In all honesty 30 seconds per donut is still fantastic pacing. I mean sure it's not what you probably wanted but, still impressive regardless!

[@jessiereichert4744]

Been watching food (as in people taste testing food from different places, mukbangs, or trying restaurant/ store food items) videos and living vicariously through the people cuz I have an eating disorder/ unhealthy relationship with food and my body and been very jealous and wish my metabolism could handle food like his can😂

[@kylestraveljournal]

Oooof I could never try this with emetophobia, I was like squirming watching this video haha Literally my hell on earth! How many times did you use your own catchphrase in your head after those 12 donuts!?!

[@mwojciec79]

shotut to Vance

[@kevincruikshank9371]

Can u have coffee with the donuts!?

[@j.corbygaming]

Great video and all, but you never told us your favorite donut

[@MartinUnderwood]

Not me now considering this for next year....

[@odysseasv7734]

Looks very fun! except for the puking part...

[@LindsayDaly]

It's actually kind of dumb that they don't have AMPLE trashcans at the end for people to puke into lmao. Well done 🍩

[@therealsamreid]

I was surprised there wasn’t a line of them ready 😂

[@manbuckets]

Idk if I could do this 😂

[@chancedonaldson]

Feel like you’re underrated

[@teddyturner2006]

I think you should get involved in some more man v food type challenges

[@j.pearce3981]

went to state and every year the student paper did a full spread on best puke shots from the challenge LOL ....also a 6:45 for a normie is a pretty good mile time

[@montrealsports29]

I'm starting to wonder if you ever eat anything in a normal way. Just kidding! A very strange race and another interesting video.

[@jtgayner]

The real ones know the burrito slap

[@saucyboyjay9989]

Hey what camera do u use

[@therealsamreid]

Hi! All my gear is linked in the description. The camera during the race is the Canon Powershot.

[@julioalvarez9650]

Shoot, 2400 calories in donuts and burning around 600-800 calories for those five miles. 😬

[@TimNguyen825]

How much did this race cost to enter??

[@therealsamreid]

I think it’s $40 for the entry and another $5 if you want the medal at the end!

[@PixelatedSlag]

is that a weird lighting artifact at 2:44 on your neck or are you wearing a fake button up LOL

[@therealsamreid]

Haha I don’t know what that is, but the button up is 100% real
