[@blairphilip9439]

Joel, have you ever considered bringing a scale to these events? Seems like many of these places scam a bit

[@05reddragon05]

Where was the rotten food?

[@sarahlynch3]

This was great! Loving your content keep up the great work

[@KM-hk8tc]

Watching a year later - did he finish the sandwich

[@NorthPhoenixActivist]

Its DISFRICKSCUSTING when venues increase the size of a challenge just because you show up. It happens to many of your friends too!

[@JoelHansen]

Thanks for watching

[@amiahspencer829]

* I agree it's DISFRICKSCUSTING*

[@misskay8131]

Yes, it’s disfrickscusting!

[@FleXxTheFuture]

Just tragic 😢

[@chha6439]

I would’ve told him to stick it because it wasn’t the amount that you were supposed to eat

[@evanrose713]

I respect your honesty lmao. Cannot even imagine trying to finish an eating challenge while having to sh*t .

[@lamonmae]

😂

[@Eric-tb8mz]

So glad you called out that disgusting looking pizza more than you already did in the original video.

[@TheSpritz0]

ALL competitive eaters should start bringing SCALES to these challenges or else restaurant owners will just keep moving UP and UP in the weight of these challenges...

[@crazybeardedfoodie7033]

Absolutely agree with this comment!

[@amiahspencer829]

Yes!

[@Bshady37]

Yeah if they brought their own scales it would make it so much easier

[@MikeWalls7829]

A year later and yes, they totally started bringing scales and caught out a few dodgy establishments, one of them claimed 15 punds and it was like 26, they had to remake it to the right size, nice.

[@pashalove_as]

It's always amazing when you finish big challenges or go beast mode. Hard to see you struggle but amazing to see what you can do.

[@JoelHansen]

Thanks Amanda!

[@heatherfisher8782]

Do you ever ask the staff, if you feel like they upped the weight of the challenge??! Maybe you should bring a scale and hold them to their word. Lol Anyways, thanks for the top 5! Can't wait to see what 2022 has in store! Maybe you'll make a visit near Rochester NY! 😉😊

[@debrahighfill9061]

aw man a true champion i was feelin your struggle.. in 2019 diagnosed as diabetic at 64 and struggling to eat at all from the medication .. i was cheering you on and inspired by your tenacity..btw i can finally eat a whole sandwich..keep rockin it champ you are tops in my book

[@bluerosegirl7471]

I honestly hope you continue to improve. ❤

[@MaryJBakerAloha]

Love these end of the year replays! Had no idea about your “situation” during the giant hamburger challenge!!! Yikes!!!

[@JoelHansen]

Yes lol

[@May-fo1rs]

My gosh!!! Can someone actually die from extreme stuffing one's self? Be careful, Joel. Don't hurt yourself.

[@JoelHansen]

Yes thanks

[@eveluvzrain10]

Seriously Joel, you are just amazing. Never fail with having great content. Happy New Year! Waiting for more great videos 🤗💜

[@TheSpritz0]

JOEL- Maybe you should bring a digital scale (they are cheap and available everywhere) with you to every challenge JUST to keep the restaurant owners/chefs HONEST. Just remind them you will be WEIGHING the challenge, believe me they will stop over-stuffing everything very quickly!!!!

[@joshuam6587]

This, you call it a xx lb challenge it should be that or they be called out

[@JoelHansen]

Thanks

[@JuicySpizzy]

Why continue if it's rotten??? I would report them to the Health Department!! Food Poisioning could kill you!! That Donair challenge was all YOUR FAULT JOEL!! You kept saying if I get this I'll eat another. YOU said they was DELICIOUS 🤣

[@dddJacksonbbb]

One of my favorite videos ever. I love the 'behind the scenes' aspect. Super awesome

[@lorettasaunders7032]

Man. That was some hard challenges. I saw them all except the last one as did everyone else. But I had no idea how difficult they were. You are amazing at these food challenges.

[@juanitadewey2516]

You had some of the insane challenges that year but like a champ that you are finishing the challenge in record time. Love your videos ❤❤

[@Natalie.Energy_789]

I remember those challenges (minus the last), the BBQ Texas challenge was hard to watch you go thorough, 2nd was the huge burger with the hardest bread challenge lol...it really sucks you ate the bad pizza, I respect the honesty in your challenges about the restaurants...its sad some aren't honest about their challenges & their weight...cheers to happy healthy eating in 2022 😊

[@JoelHansen]

Thanks for watching and for the support

[@Natalie.Energy_789]

@@JoelHansen you're welcome, thank you for sharing, we love watching you in beast mode 😊

[@kimnash6653]

I love you Joel!! Mad respect!! I waited all day for this video drop! I was listening live on NYE!! Love u so much!!❤

[@brentstraddle1462]

Clinching as hard as you can for 20 minutes? Dick Vitale should call you the diaper dandy babyyyyyy! I am laughing so hard no clinching available here.

[@kimhays7466]

I appreciate you sharing your thoughts with us these last two days! Thank you so much! I am a Fort Worth, Texas fan and I believe you have become my favorite professional eater!

[@sCarrieCemetery]

Hey, I'm a fellow DFWer as well! Actually Stephenville now, but originally the Mid-Cities (NRH) area. Glad to bump into a fellow local. 🤠👌

[@MichaelMohrshipofools]

I guess you hold the unofficial record for largest meal ever eaten while having to #2. I am counting on you Joel to beat that record in the near future.

[@scottharrison5971]

Hide the boxes and totes, shut the door and make your bed. Wall art? A nice landscape perhaps? C'mon man! HAHAHAHA!

[@groupchat7264]

I know that it looks like you were going to lose on that unreleased video but we all know how you go into beast mode and pull out the win especially on tough challenges. It’s the best revenge on these restaurants that aren’t as honest as they should be.

[@jaydee3265]

Most food challenges are standard until the restaurant hears Joel Hanson is on the way! Those restaurants are considered your haters.

[@deborahmoore7176]

I appreciate you doing this video because I just love 💕 you Joel! Hang in there!!!

[@traceybc73]

I found your channel while stuck at home and I've been hooked ever since. My family thinks I'm weird but now they watch. Your friggin amazing! Your videos are very entertaining. And you crush those challenges, even when they look unbeatable. Wish restaurants wouldn't increase the size. They should know their getting free advertisement and if they try and trick you it looks bad on them. But your always so nice and respectable no matter what.

[@MarySmith-lx5zx]

Joel, you are such an awesome person! I try to follow you on here wherever you go 🙂🙂. Try not to overeat!!! 😂

[@Rucking1]

Yeah that pizza one looked awful I remember the face and small talk as you were thinking this is awful 🤣 smashing it joel all the best for 2022

[@Chebowski]

You had some great challenges this year! I love your videos, especially when the challenge really pushes your limits. The prime rib challenge was beyond epic!

[@themollymachine]

Do that first story I'm laughing out loud literally!!!! hahahahaha omg that was great how you told the story lol. it's funny because I just watched that challenge and it seemed like you were having a really hard time for some reason because you usually just Breeze through a lot of the challenges

[@markmaryvale6802]

By the far the best! Can’t watch anyone else’s channel (except stonie) u set the bar too high!! 💪🏼

[@msvendetta9676]

So for the Joseppis pizza that is actually how that pizza comes as far as the toppings go . if you buy a regular large mega meat pizza it will look the same , it comes with every meat that joseppies has. I was a manager for the store a few years ago . Basically the Ham, hot ham, pepperoni and sausage all go under the cheese and the ground beef and bacon are on top , but it is a LOT of meat. you guys did great though !

[@horseplop9]

Hey relax dude . It was a Gross Pizza

[@msvendetta9676]

@@horseplop9 Fully relaxed dude not mad at all. he just said he wasn't sure how the pizza came i explained how it came lmfao. i don't work there anymore and could care less about the pizza . it did taste like shit :D

[@Femm5454]

i like hearing about the aftermath of some of these big challenges. ive always been curious

[@davidmulligan7250]

you should throw a kitchen scale in your bag when you go to challenges to see how heavy they actually are

[@Nbrito06]

Please be safe Joel dont push your body so intensely. I've worried for your heart health in many of these... the heart can only handle so much. We would rather see u eat more safer challenge amounts of food over risking yourself. Happy New year 💜.

[@JoelHansen]

Thanks!

[@KramerY2J]

Sometimes I forget you're human but you're always amazing.

[@christyinthecarolinas]

I don't want to be a Debbie downer, but never eat bad ground beef. Botulism is deadly!! Wow, no way I could do that.

[@bikashgurung6054]

Joel was not there by intention guys but by pure coincidence. And he had a few hours free... Lucky guys.. Oder wise he is always busy eating

[@Beogoat]

Glad you didn't crap in your pants. What happened with that pizza was just wrong. Looking forward to the full release of the last episode. ^_^ 😀

[@DavidSmith-ph7iy]

Spoiled meat and you guys still murdered it! I remember all these challenges and I had no idea you had to shit on that burger one haha lmao and you were eating spoiled meat on thaf pizza one. Fkn A crazy, happy new year homie I’ll be watching again this year

[@robertholmes2306]

It just shows...That there's alot of mental focus being a competitive eater. Basically mind over food.

[@contractlandino5991]

I love prime rib but man that's too much amazing how u did that and that pizza they definitely through everything that had in the kitchen on it

[@alisonhughes6476]

Amazing honesty . That must of been painful Well done Joel seriously, well done 👏🏻

[@silvereaglestacker3109]

I must watch alot of your videos. Because I watched everyone of those videos in the past

[@QueenNemesis327]

🤣🤣 Joel omg you're the MVP holding in an explosion just for us

[@marcsullivan2468]

The Prime Rib challenge was the most amazing thing I have ever seen. Kudos to you Joel.

[@tamibell4325]

Joel, I'm only at 3:33 and I already feel so bad for you! I am however so glad that you didn't soil! I hope you have found some way to help or prevent that in the future. Lots of love and immodium to you!

[@johnlarson4254]

Lol. Nothing worse than having to poop but you can't leave the table or you lose the challenge. Omg. Dude you must have strong prayers

[@DragonQueen78]

I’m sorry but if you ever begin to suspect the food is bad do NOT do the challenge. No challenge is worth food poisoning!! These restaurants cheat for sure though. You are amazing Joel!

[@charlesa9392]

Killin’ it Joel - best of luck this upcoming year!! 💪🏻

[@roskill3]

There is no excuse for serving bad meat and to pile all of those ingredients on top of that pizza was not right either. You two were good to keep eating that.

[@kimberlycummings5042]

Lol,😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂Not that you was going boo boo on yourself. Lol

[@lisavyse3538]

OMG Joel thanks for this video mate admire your honesty I always wonder if you look at the challenge is it bigger does it taste weird do you feel ill etc very informative love your videos look forward to your next challenge Happy New Year and all good wishes Lisa n Laura xxxxxx🤗😁🌟🏆👌

[@marciesupersquid5057]

Hey its Marcie n Manda from Dartmouth, I think you should do a "Joel vs Fans " video 😊

[@JoelHansen]

Thanks!

[@erickort1987]

that huge burger looks delicious though,all those healthy veggies,the first one

[@eric81872]

Thank you for the video!😜👍♥ I hope you have a great happy new year!♥

[@JoelHansen]

Thanks for watching! And the support

[@apocgeneral]

Happy new year! Can't wait to see more challenges from you!

[@JoelHansen]

Thanks you too

[@ladygreer9323]

Except for the last one.. Lol❤🐞

[@elijahmodnar1]

dude, Bring scales with you, as in small digital scales that can take 20-25lb and table top weigh in on video there and then ;)

[@snowkracker]

You should start bringing your own scale and only pull it out to weigh the food once they bring it out.

[@crikker9447]

Did you guys get sick after that pizza challenge?

[@JoelHansen]

Yup

[@elijahmodnar1]

regarding the sitting/clenching, how about not sitting, and kneeling instead like Randy Santel does? as that should give a bit of "extension" regarding sitting while the BM is on its way ;)

[@joesperling1262]

Shart film award

[@bigballmagrawl0929]

You should do a best of I almost craped my pants

[@davidsmith687]

Dang! “Cliffhanger” literally took words right out of my mouth! Lol! Your a food beast man! Happy New Year as well.

[@JoelHansen]

Thanks for watching ! Happy new year

[@jxcobsolis]

“I was about to bust, and not in a good way” 😂😂

[@TroyStevens1]

I'm 100% undefeated in watching your challenges....do I get a T shirt??

[@dannyspears514]

Great behind the scenes Joel , you always make it seem doable no matter what . Happy and blessed new year.

[@catherinemacleod3354]

I'm pretty sure they cut the meat on the sandwich challenge with the grain to make it super hard to chew, on purpose.

[@joseluispalacios5753]

If it’s rotten and you know the items on their are spoiled just stop eating

[@SueZQ]

I thought there couldn’t possibly be anything worse than almost shitting yourself 🤣🤣🤣🤣 but the one with bad meat.. ugh… I think that’s worse 🤢🤮

[@sharonbunting3168]

happy New year Joel watch you all the time killing those food challenges loved the end of year video be safe man don't hurt yourself for a win

[@movinwithmo5557]

This is the best.. I'm watching you eat on my tv. And watching you watch you eat on my phone😁 I love some Joel!!!

[@plotagonroy7997]

Got to say love your top 5 food challenge, I would never be able to do that, but will say you did great with sticking with the challenges. Even at hard moments.

[@shaunruben119]

Thanks Joel for all the awesome videos in 2021!

[@trippinwithcj]

Happy new year man! Always watch you!

[@bmck5002]

Joel talking about poop makes me laugh hard. 😆 🤣 😂

[@justinmeredith8505]

Haha i love you Joel 😂😂😂

[@HOLLYBEAR32]

Lmao from the jump "had to poo"

[@IceCubeInMyIceTea]

The question is, would you have let it go in your pants to finish the challenge. You're a pro, I feel like you would've done what you had to 😂

[@kylekozina2039]

When you said “not in a good way” I chuckled

[@jamesradcliffe3985]

I wouldn't put it past the last place to fill the reuben with the nastiest parts of their left over brisket. I just watched the one with the 2 huge burgers yesterday and I could tell something was going wrong but I thought it was just those giant rolls were too chewy.

[@RainTreesWaves]

His Honesty makes him EPIC 🎉💕🎉💕

[@fireboltdomination]

I remember your first few videos I watched back when your channel was small, it's insane how much bigger the challenges you've been doing have gone from the smaller ones to literally over 15 pounds of food and 1+ hour of eating at once and your channel has grown a lot too! Hope 2022 treats you just as well!

[@JoelHansen]

Thanks for watching and the support!

[@ashokrayvenn]

Not trying to poop myself pretty much sums up 2021.

[@JoelHansen]

LOLOL

[@froggneptune9240]

The last one is rough. Have you considered bringing a small scale with you to weigh the food roughly for that type of situation?

[@twotalljones4790]

Happy 2022 Joel. Looking forward to you destroying the competition. Your defiantly the GOAT of food challenges. Them throwing in all those pork rinds is BS. Eating something that dry and then swelling up in your gut is bad news.

[@robertweber1571]

What can I say Joel, awesome content as usual. Thank you my friend! Please keep it coming!

[@naimzarif6502]

How many times did you have to flush the toilet in the first restroom visit after Billy Bob's???

Love all your videos. Will always watch no matter what. HAPPY NEW YEAR.

Hope to see you in Denmark one day …. Been sick with cancer and spent many hours watching you’re videos in the hospital…. It’s amazing what you can do

Hey Joel. I have seen every video.. These challenges Joel will have u slumped.. Be careful.. Definately a pleasure always.. Happy 2022. I know it's bigger challenges.. One love.. 🐞❤🌹🎉

Much respect to you Joel! I couldn’t have finished ANY of those challenges! 💗😎🤩

[@stevepereira8898]

You should of had the bad food before the poo video, you had us crying with laughter, as always keep the cool videos coming 👍🏻👊🏻

[@shereeannekerr2154]

lol and I said that u probably needed the toilet bad after. poor u . can't realate lol but we'll done for holding on haha

[@juliebianchi2163]

Kuddos for being respectful now and at all those challenges Joel. Honestly though, I wish you would have have called the ones out (at the time of the challenge) with the rotten/spoiled food plus the ones that upped the amount of food to an amount no one could eat. If they're not willing to pay winners cash then they should stick to t-shirts. They know professional eaters are going to enter these and instead of playing fair, they either shorten the time or think they're sneaky by adding a couple more pounds of fries. I hope they realize how easily they got off by you being a gentleman and not bad mouthing them when you could. Also, I'm shocked you guys even finished that pizza with the rotten smelling beef. I hope you didn't get sick afterwards. Happy New Year!

[@Angela7548.]

Love your videos & look forward to every one of them! Nice job! You are amazing!!

[@musicalperformances5790]

I bet you beat it Joel & it was your mental fortitude that got you through it.

Why would you risk food poisoning for $100? Tell them their pizza is fucking rotten and that's it
