4
00:00:09,171 --> 00:00:13,838
It's an exciting day as Netflix is live
around the world.

5
00:00:14,871 --> 00:00:19,171
Today, the two greatest
competitive eaters of all time,

6
00:00:19,238 --> 00:00:22,671
Joey Chestnut and Takeru Kobayashi,

7
00:00:22,738 --> 00:00:25,371
rekindle one of the biggest rivalries

8
00:00:25,438 --> 00:00:27,105
-in sports history…
-[audience cheering]

9
00:00:27,171 --> 00:00:29,905
…and it will all go down here,

10
00:00:29,971 --> 00:00:35,538
at the Luxor Resort and Casino
inside the HyperX Arena Las Vegas.

11
00:00:35,605 --> 00:00:38,605
Two champions, both hungry for victory,

12
00:00:38,671 --> 00:00:41,971
will settle their beef once and for all.

13
00:00:43,638 --> 00:00:45,971
[dramatic music playing]

14
00:00:48,738 --> 00:00:53,338
To call Kobayashi my nemesis,
it doesn't do the rivalry justice.

15
00:00:54,838 --> 00:00:57,671
[Kobayashi in Japanese]
I would be happy and honored

16
00:00:57,738 --> 00:00:59,138
if the viewers think of this match

17
00:00:59,205 --> 00:01:03,205
like a showdown
between Larry Bird and Magic Johnson.

18
00:01:05,271 --> 00:01:07,938
[in English] He was an amazing champion,
until he started losing.

19
00:01:10,104 --> 00:01:14,605
[in Japanese] I thought he should show
some respect, like a gentleman.

20
00:01:15,605 --> 00:01:19,438
[in English] He couldn't tolerate being
next to me. That's not champion behavior.

21
00:01:19,505 --> 00:01:22,905
[reporter 1] After taking 2007 off
due to an arthritic jaw,

22
00:01:22,971 --> 00:01:25,005
Kobayashi plans to reclaim the title.

23
00:01:25,571 --> 00:01:29,971
He has a jaw injury.
He has arthritis of the jaw.

24
00:01:30,038 --> 00:01:31,905
He has "jaw-thritis."

25
00:01:33,138 --> 00:01:35,171
He's a liar. He was playing up his injury.

26
00:01:35,238 --> 00:01:37,071
Right after I qualified
and broke his record,

27
00:01:37,138 --> 00:01:38,505
he says he has the jaw injury.

28
00:01:38,571 --> 00:01:41,238
Then he ends up eating more hot dogs
than he ever did before.

29
00:01:41,305 --> 00:01:42,605
It didn't add up quite right.

30
00:01:42,671 --> 00:01:45,138
[in Japanese] When I heard Joey saying

31
00:01:45,205 --> 00:01:49,338
my jaw problem was fake,

32
00:01:49,405 --> 00:01:51,205
I got really upset.

33
00:01:51,271 --> 00:01:53,005
[in English]
Nobody likes being called a liar,

34
00:01:53,071 --> 00:01:55,638
but when you do it,
you're gonna get called it.

35
00:01:55,705 --> 00:01:57,171
[reporter 2] People seem to think that

36
00:01:57,238 --> 00:01:59,638
Joey actually may be cheating
a little bit.

37
00:01:59,705 --> 00:02:01,938
[translator] I've definitely witnessed
some cheating, yeah.

38
00:02:02,905 --> 00:02:05,471
I'm not the judge. It's the judge's call.

39
00:02:05,538 --> 00:02:08,405
-[reporter 3] Is he a good athlete?
-No. Not at all.

40
00:02:08,471 --> 00:02:11,205
He used to be my main rival,
but I kind of retired him.

41
00:02:11,271 --> 00:02:12,738
-Okay. [laughs]
-[anchor] There you go.

42
00:02:12,805 --> 00:02:16,005
If you ask him about every loss,
he'll give you an excuse.

43
00:02:17,071 --> 00:02:20,638
[in Japanese]
He's making stuff up in his own head.

44
00:02:21,338 --> 00:02:24,005
[in English] There's no more excuses.
I'm always gonna beat him.

45
00:02:25,038 --> 00:02:29,438
[in Japanese] This is the first time
that my personal feelings are involved.

46
00:02:29,505 --> 00:02:32,738
I want to kick his ass!

47
00:02:32,805 --> 00:02:34,571
[audience cheering]

48
00:02:40,071 --> 00:02:42,538
-Oh, yes! Can you believe it?
-Right?

49
00:02:44,338 --> 00:02:45,238
Yes!

50
00:02:49,605 --> 00:02:51,805
It is getting personal around here.

51
00:02:51,871 --> 00:02:55,638
Welcome to Chestnut vs. Kobayashi:
Unfinished Beef.

52
00:02:55,705 --> 00:02:56,638
Hello, everybody.

53
00:02:56,705 --> 00:02:57,871
I'm Rob Riggle,

54
00:02:57,938 --> 00:03:02,838
and I am so happy to be MCing
a show that combines my two great loves:

55
00:03:02,905 --> 00:03:04,705
Vegas and hot dogs.

56
00:03:04,771 --> 00:03:06,971
[audience cheers]

57
00:03:09,271 --> 00:03:11,305
[clears throat] Apologies to my kids.

58
00:03:11,905 --> 00:03:15,405
My fabulous cohost today
is an accomplished athlete herself.

59
00:03:15,471 --> 00:03:18,738
WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Garcia, everybody!

60
00:03:18,805 --> 00:03:21,738
Thank you, Rob. Thank you, everyone.

61
00:03:21,805 --> 00:03:23,738
I'm so happy to be here.

62
00:03:23,805 --> 00:03:26,471
And in just about 40 minutes…

63
00:03:26,538 --> 00:03:28,371
Oh, I love you too.

64
00:03:28,438 --> 00:03:32,138
…these two undisputed heavyweights
of competitive eating

65
00:03:32,205 --> 00:03:37,405
will be standing on this stage,
devouring hot dogs at unimaginable speeds.

66
00:03:37,471 --> 00:03:40,305
And you know what? You're all just gonna
have to see it to believe it.

67
00:03:40,371 --> 00:03:41,438
That's right. That's right.

68
00:03:41,505 --> 00:03:45,338
Two thousand four hundred hot dogs
have been cooked in the last month

69
00:03:45,405 --> 00:03:47,171
to get ready for this moment.

70
00:03:47,238 --> 00:03:52,338
Three hundred hot dogs will be prepared
for today's main event alone.

71
00:03:52,405 --> 00:03:55,005
That is a lot of encased meat.

72
00:03:55,071 --> 00:03:58,471
It is going to be glorious,
and perhaps a little gross.

73
00:03:58,538 --> 00:03:59,405
That's right.

74
00:03:59,471 --> 00:04:03,438
But, you know, Rob, that's not
the only competition happening here today.

75
00:04:03,505 --> 00:04:07,305
Nice! That's called a tease
in the show business game.

76
00:04:08,505 --> 00:04:11,205
That's right, we're taking
the action poolside

77
00:04:11,271 --> 00:04:13,438
with two other greats in the sport,

78
00:04:13,505 --> 00:04:16,005
competitive eater Matt Stonie…

79
00:04:16,071 --> 00:04:18,438
Mm-hmm. Yes.

80
00:04:18,971 --> 00:04:20,105
That's right.

81
00:04:20,905 --> 00:04:24,971
He will battle three Olympic medalists.

82
00:04:25,038 --> 00:04:29,905
[Riggle] And 23-time Guinness
World Record holder Leah Shutkever

83
00:04:29,971 --> 00:04:34,171
will try to set
yet another eating world record live.

84
00:04:34,238 --> 00:04:38,471
And these USC students rocked
Allegiant Stadium last night,

85
00:04:38,538 --> 00:04:40,705
and now they're here
to help hype up this crowd,

86
00:04:40,771 --> 00:04:43,005
-so hit it!
-[audience cheering]

87
00:04:45,505 --> 00:04:48,905
[playing "All I Do Is Win"]

88
00:04:58,971 --> 00:05:00,138
-[music pauses]
-Joey Chestnut!

89
00:05:00,205 --> 00:05:02,405
[music resumes]

90
00:05:14,805 --> 00:05:16,305
-[audience cheering]
-Yes!

91
00:05:16,371 --> 00:05:18,705
-All right!
-[laughing] Whoa.

92
00:05:18,771 --> 00:05:22,838
I mean, what a great way to get
the energy going for this live event.

93
00:05:22,905 --> 00:05:25,105
Let's hear it again for the USC Band.

94
00:05:25,171 --> 00:05:26,505
-Yeah.
-Whoo!

95
00:05:27,805 --> 00:05:32,605
All right, now let's meet the team calling
the action of today's main event,

96
00:05:32,671 --> 00:05:35,671
Chris Rose and Cari Champion!

97
00:05:35,738 --> 00:05:37,805
-Hey, guys!
-Hello!

98
00:05:37,871 --> 00:05:40,638
-Nikki, Rob, thank you, oh, so much.
-Thank you.

99
00:05:40,705 --> 00:05:42,805
-Ah, Cari, in our respective careers…
-Yes.

100
00:05:42,871 --> 00:05:46,005
…we've had the good fortune of covering
some of the world's biggest events, right?

101
00:05:46,071 --> 00:05:47,338
Super Bowl, NBA Finals.

102
00:05:47,405 --> 00:05:50,271
-You covered the fight game in Vegas.
-Right. Not too long ago.

103
00:05:50,338 --> 00:05:53,538
Actually, about ten years ago,
2015, not far from here.

104
00:05:53,605 --> 00:05:55,738
-Manny Pacquiao, Floyd Mayweather.
-Mm-hmm.

105
00:05:55,805 --> 00:05:58,005
And there's a lot of poetry with the two.

106
00:05:58,071 --> 00:06:00,638
Let me explain. This is my logic here.

107
00:06:00,705 --> 00:06:02,238
In that particular fight,

108
00:06:02,305 --> 00:06:06,771
there was the moment that we had
to determine the undisputed champion.

109
00:06:06,838 --> 00:06:08,738
Very much as the case here.

110
00:06:08,805 --> 00:06:10,338
Chestnut, Kobayashi.

111
00:06:10,405 --> 00:06:13,638
Who is the undisputed champion
when it comes to competitive eating?

112
00:06:13,705 --> 00:06:16,071
We will find out today
because there is unfinished beef.

113
00:06:16,138 --> 00:06:17,571
Yeah. When it comes to this world,

114
00:06:17,638 --> 00:06:20,338
you're talking about
the Mt. Rushmore of competitive eating.

115
00:06:20,405 --> 00:06:23,638
There aren't four faces out there.
It's two. It's Kobayashi. It's Chestnut.

116
00:06:23,705 --> 00:06:24,971
Most likely those faces

117
00:06:25,038 --> 00:06:27,471
-are full of food, is my guess.
-Filled with food. [laughs]

118
00:06:27,538 --> 00:06:31,538
And their relationship is frosty at times,
it has been hateful,

119
00:06:31,605 --> 00:06:33,705
and that has carried through
to this Labor Day weekend.

120
00:06:33,771 --> 00:06:34,671
-Don't you think?
-Yeah.

121
00:06:34,738 --> 00:06:36,705
I think that, as we just talked
about a moment ago,

122
00:06:36,771 --> 00:06:39,605
we had a chance to talk to these guys
this weekend. There is no love lost.

123
00:06:39,671 --> 00:06:42,771
We can clearly see who likes who
and who doesn't like who.

124
00:06:42,838 --> 00:06:46,205
I really believe that Joey
has some sort of respect,

125
00:06:46,271 --> 00:06:50,538
but the fact is he called
Kobayashi a liar, and he does not like it.

126
00:06:50,605 --> 00:06:53,971
So, I know when they were weighing in,
Joey extended his hand.

127
00:06:54,038 --> 00:06:56,971
He said, "Let me try to shake your hand."
Kobayashi was like, "Yeah. Okay."

128
00:06:57,038 --> 00:07:01,271
-"If we are doing this, I will do it."
-[Rose] Well, they did it. Uh-huh.

129
00:07:01,338 --> 00:07:05,538
[Champion] And you know what? Two seconds,
shoutout to the crowd in here right now.

130
00:07:05,605 --> 00:07:10,005
Because they are here to hype up
these people to do what they do best.

131
00:07:10,071 --> 00:07:11,305
-I love it!
-[Rose] That's right.

132
00:07:11,371 --> 00:07:14,071
It is all coming your way
in about 40 minutes or so.

133
00:07:14,138 --> 00:07:16,905
We are in Vegas so we're talking
about a "Tale of the Tape."

134
00:07:16,971 --> 00:07:20,371
Let's remember that there's 100 grand
on the line for the winner today.

135
00:07:20,438 --> 00:07:22,238
-That's a nice bag.
-That is something special.

136
00:07:22,305 --> 00:07:25,138
But we are in Vegas, so let's see it.
A pair of 40-somethings.

137
00:07:25,205 --> 00:07:29,138
One guy in Joey Chestnut, 40 years old,
from suburban Indianapolis.

138
00:07:29,205 --> 00:07:33,438
46-year-old Kobayashi from Japan.
You can see the weight difference.

139
00:07:33,505 --> 00:07:37,805
Joey Chestnut outweighs
his opponent by nearly 65 pounds.

140
00:07:37,871 --> 00:07:38,871
[Champion] A 3rd grader.

141
00:07:38,938 --> 00:07:41,771
[Rose laughs] That's about the size
of a third grader. You're right, Cari.

142
00:07:41,838 --> 00:07:43,505
All right. But look at the bottom line.

143
00:07:43,571 --> 00:07:45,238
Personal best in 10 minutes

144
00:07:45,305 --> 00:07:46,371
of hot-dog eating.

145
00:07:46,438 --> 00:07:49,171
For Joey Chestnut, 76 dogs consumed.

146
00:07:49,238 --> 00:07:51,238
-Wow.
-Kobayashi, just 64 and a half.

147
00:07:51,305 --> 00:07:54,738
That happened back in 2009,
his last Nathan's appearance,

148
00:07:54,805 --> 00:07:58,071
which coincidentally
he finished second to…

149
00:07:58,138 --> 00:08:00,205
-The guy. The main guy.
-…Joey Chestnut.

150
00:08:00,271 --> 00:08:01,305
Speaking of Joey Chestnut,

151
00:08:01,371 --> 00:08:04,205
he told me that he cares about the taste
of everything he's having.

152
00:08:04,271 --> 00:08:07,371
So in case you're curious at home,
it is Labor Day, you are eating.

153
00:08:07,438 --> 00:08:11,838
They're having Ball Park beef frankfurters
wrapped up in a Great Value bun.

154
00:08:11,905 --> 00:08:17,005
Combined, each hot dog and bun
is cooked about maybe 89.2 grams.

155
00:08:17,071 --> 00:08:19,271
That's the weight of it
if you will, 280 calories.

156
00:08:19,338 --> 00:08:21,771
Take a look at it right there.
Preparation is key.

157
00:08:21,838 --> 00:08:24,405
-That's roughly three ounces, right?
-[audience murmuring]

158
00:08:24,471 --> 00:08:26,305
[Champion] You can see it.
It's a serious thing.

159
00:08:26,371 --> 00:08:27,538
[Rose] Can you hear the crowd?

160
00:08:27,605 --> 00:08:29,071
-They're going, "Mm!"
-They're buzzing.

161
00:08:29,138 --> 00:08:31,205
-They love it.
-They love it. They want a hot dog.

162
00:08:31,271 --> 00:08:35,638
All right, listen,
it is time to at least get a small look

163
00:08:35,705 --> 00:08:38,571
at who we want to see,
and that is Joey Chestnut.

164
00:08:38,638 --> 00:08:40,304
There's been so much conversation about:

165
00:08:40,371 --> 00:08:42,771
Is he ready?
Will he be the definitive champion?

166
00:08:42,838 --> 00:08:45,438
-There he is sitting in his dressing room.
-[audience cheering]

167
00:08:46,271 --> 00:08:48,671
Locked in, listening to music.

168
00:08:48,738 --> 00:08:51,471
Not necessarily doing any jaw exercises

169
00:08:51,538 --> 00:08:54,405
as we thought he would be doing,
Jaws himself.

170
00:08:54,471 --> 00:08:56,205
But he's in a-- Yeah, he's locked in.

171
00:08:56,271 --> 00:08:57,805
-[audience chanting]
-He's in the zone.

172
00:08:57,871 --> 00:08:59,971
Definitely the main ingredient
that's helped him build

173
00:09:00,038 --> 00:09:03,971
one of the most impressive careers
in competitive eating history.

174
00:09:04,038 --> 00:09:07,638
So let's find out a little more
about his entire career.

175
00:09:08,105 --> 00:09:09,938
[dramatic music playing]

176
00:09:12,405 --> 00:09:18,605
[announcer] He is your hot-dog eating
champion, Joey "Jaws" Chestnut!

177
00:09:18,671 --> 00:09:20,771
If I could talk to my 9-year-old self

178
00:09:20,838 --> 00:09:23,938
and tell him that he was gonna be
the world champion competitive eater,

179
00:09:24,005 --> 00:09:26,471
he'd say, "Oh, my God,
my life is awesome."

180
00:09:26,538 --> 00:09:29,605
Joey Chestnut is a hot-dog eating genius.

181
00:09:29,671 --> 00:09:31,405
The hot-dog eating champion.

182
00:09:31,471 --> 00:09:33,838
Joey Chestnut? He's my hero.

183
00:09:33,905 --> 00:09:36,471
[upbeat music playing]

184
00:09:37,705 --> 00:09:40,038
The first contest I did, I was nervous.

185
00:09:40,105 --> 00:09:41,038
I was so scared.

186
00:09:41,105 --> 00:09:44,771
I remember once the contest started,
I was like, "I don't have to hold back."

187
00:09:44,838 --> 00:09:48,105
I felt a weird kind of…

188
00:09:48,171 --> 00:09:50,871
It sounds dorky-- freedom, to be myself.

189
00:09:50,938 --> 00:09:54,238
[Champion] As a young man, watching
the dominance of Kobayashi,

190
00:09:54,305 --> 00:09:57,138
Joey felt the calling
to compete against the best.

191
00:09:57,205 --> 00:09:59,405
[announcer] Kobayashi!

192
00:09:59,471 --> 00:10:03,938
Takeru Kobayashi, he's the reason
why I went all in on competitive eating.

193
00:10:04,005 --> 00:10:05,571
[announcer] He is a master!

194
00:10:05,638 --> 00:10:08,638
[Chestnut] He was the man with the target
on him. He was unbeatable.

195
00:10:08,705 --> 00:10:10,005
[announcer] He is a magician!

196
00:10:10,071 --> 00:10:12,571
I had to make a decision early on
that I was gonna do something

197
00:10:12,638 --> 00:10:15,371
-nobody else thought was possible.
-Kobayashi is an alchemist!

198
00:10:15,438 --> 00:10:19,338
[Chestnut] I did my first contest in 2005,
competing against Kobayashi

199
00:10:19,405 --> 00:10:21,771
in Nathan's 4th of July
Hot Dog Eating Contest.

200
00:10:21,838 --> 00:10:24,171
For the past month,
I've been eating hot dogs every Saturday.

201
00:10:24,238 --> 00:10:27,271
I was four months into competitive eating,
I placed third.

202
00:10:28,138 --> 00:10:29,638
Kobayashi won that contest.

203
00:10:29,705 --> 00:10:32,271
[announcer] Takeru Kobayashi!

204
00:10:32,338 --> 00:10:36,205
The next year, 2006, I placed second.

205
00:10:36,271 --> 00:10:38,938
Kobayashi was seemingly unbeatable.

206
00:10:39,005 --> 00:10:41,505
[commentator]
The top-ranked eater in the world.

207
00:10:41,571 --> 00:10:45,171
[Chestnut] But I used it as motivation
to push myself.

208
00:10:45,238 --> 00:10:46,871
And the third year…

209
00:10:48,505 --> 00:10:49,638
2007…

210
00:10:51,271 --> 00:10:52,271
I won.

211
00:10:52,938 --> 00:10:57,438
In first place, with 66 hot dogs and buns,

212
00:10:57,505 --> 00:11:01,271
Joey Chestnut!

213
00:11:01,338 --> 00:11:05,671
Kobayashi was an amazing champion.
But I beat him three years in a row.

214
00:11:05,738 --> 00:11:08,771
So it's safe to say that,
in the discipline of hot dogs,

215
00:11:08,838 --> 00:11:10,671
I had his number.

216
00:11:10,738 --> 00:11:12,638
[audience cheering]

217
00:11:12,705 --> 00:11:14,305
[Champion] Since defeating Kobayashi,

218
00:11:14,371 --> 00:11:17,471
Joey became the face
of the competitive eating world.

219
00:11:19,605 --> 00:11:22,771
Dominating for over 15 years.

220
00:11:22,838 --> 00:11:27,471
The once and future king, Joey Chestnut!

221
00:11:27,538 --> 00:11:28,805
[audience cheering]

222
00:11:32,605 --> 00:11:35,238
[Chestnut]
Kobayashi is my biggest competitor.

223
00:11:36,138 --> 00:11:37,738
I'm trying to prove I'm the best.

224
00:11:37,805 --> 00:11:40,671
He might want to win really,
really, really bad.

225
00:11:40,738 --> 00:11:41,905
I need to win.

226
00:11:41,971 --> 00:11:43,005
[announcer] Go!

227
00:11:47,938 --> 00:11:49,405
-They understand…
-Yeah.

228
00:11:49,471 --> 00:11:52,471
They understand what's on the line.
We can hear it.

229
00:11:52,538 --> 00:11:56,038
It's more about not winning,
but not losing to this guy.

230
00:11:56,105 --> 00:11:59,471
I mean, with Joey Chestnut, when
he burst onto the scene two decades ago,

231
00:11:59,538 --> 00:12:03,171
he said he has a sense of self,
a purpose, a road map in life.

232
00:12:03,238 --> 00:12:04,871
He takes it very seriously.

233
00:12:04,938 --> 00:12:08,271
He loves the celebrity and he just loves
everything that comes with it.

234
00:12:08,338 --> 00:12:12,171
I think we've made it clear these guys
are both true athletes who train,

235
00:12:12,238 --> 00:12:14,438
they prepare,
they understand what it all means.

236
00:12:14,505 --> 00:12:17,538
I'm really excited about
what we're gonna see here, because this--

237
00:12:17,605 --> 00:12:19,771
-[audience clapping]
-Yes, that's right, you are excited.

238
00:12:19,838 --> 00:12:21,571
I will take that, as well.

239
00:12:21,638 --> 00:12:24,638
We have a lot to get to to understand
what they've been through.

240
00:12:24,705 --> 00:12:27,938
Yeah. You know,
the only person other than Kobayashi

241
00:12:28,005 --> 00:12:30,938
to take down Joey Chestnut
at Nathan's was Matt Stonie,

242
00:12:31,005 --> 00:12:33,905
who is outside
with Rob and Nikki right now.

243
00:12:33,971 --> 00:12:35,905
Let's head poolside.

244
00:12:36,738 --> 00:12:41,205
Hey! We are here with
the world-renowned competitive eater,

245
00:12:41,271 --> 00:12:43,405
Matt Stonie, everybody!

246
00:12:43,471 --> 00:12:47,071
This man scoops. He slurps. He dominates.

247
00:12:47,138 --> 00:12:52,305
[Garcia] He sure does. He has more than
3.6 billion views on YouTube.

248
00:12:52,371 --> 00:12:55,071
That is a lot of people
watching him eat meat.

249
00:12:55,138 --> 00:12:58,805
That's right and he holds the world record

250
00:12:58,871 --> 00:13:03,238
for eating the most bacon
in five minutes, at 182 slices.

251
00:13:03,305 --> 00:13:06,638
Just beating my personal best
of 180 slices.

252
00:13:06,705 --> 00:13:09,238
-Matt, welcome to the show.
-Yes, welcome!

253
00:13:09,305 --> 00:13:12,571
-This is exciting. I'm excited.
-[Garcia] We're so excited to have you.

254
00:13:12,638 --> 00:13:13,605
Matt, we wanna know.

255
00:13:13,671 --> 00:13:17,405
So, we are all of course
waiting to see the main event today.

256
00:13:17,471 --> 00:13:19,105
-Yeah.
-But we all want to know,

257
00:13:19,171 --> 00:13:22,371
-how did you beat Joey in 2015?
-[Riggle] Yeah.

258
00:13:22,438 --> 00:13:25,238
-That-- You know, I--
-That's a major feat. That is not easy.

259
00:13:25,305 --> 00:13:28,005
Joey is a great eater
but he's not unbeatable.

260
00:13:28,071 --> 00:13:30,238
And I just showed up hungrier that day.

261
00:13:30,305 --> 00:13:32,505
-[Garcia] Oh.
-[man] Yeah!

262
00:13:32,571 --> 00:13:34,771
-I like it. I like a hungry man.
-Pun intended.

263
00:13:34,838 --> 00:13:36,271
Yeah. Pun intended.

264
00:13:36,338 --> 00:13:38,471
Okay. Well, you know, Matt,

265
00:13:38,538 --> 00:13:41,371
-today, you are taking on chicken wings.
-Yeah.

266
00:13:41,438 --> 00:13:43,971
But you're not gonna have
just one opponent.

267
00:13:44,038 --> 00:13:47,771
You are going to be facing
three Olympic athletes.

268
00:13:48,505 --> 00:13:55,038
By the way, two that
just medaled at Paris 2024.

269
00:13:55,105 --> 00:13:57,638
-How do you feel about that?
-I'm nervous.

270
00:13:57,705 --> 00:13:59,571
They're competition and everything.

271
00:13:59,638 --> 00:14:01,771
-Yeah.
-But this is my territory.

272
00:14:01,838 --> 00:14:04,338
-They're out of water. So, let's go.
-Ooh! Out of water!

273
00:14:04,405 --> 00:14:07,105
Well, speaking of that,
let's welcome them.

274
00:14:07,171 --> 00:14:12,705
Please, everyone, welcome Max Irving,
Ryan Lochte, and Ryan Murphy.

275
00:14:12,771 --> 00:14:16,371
[all chanting] USA! USA! USA!

276
00:14:16,438 --> 00:14:19,738
USA! USA! USA!

277
00:14:19,805 --> 00:14:21,971
-USA! USA!
-[Riggle] All right.

278
00:14:22,038 --> 00:14:24,105
-I wrote that song, by the way.
-Yeah. [laughs]

279
00:14:24,171 --> 00:14:27,105
Listen, we've got three Olympians here.

280
00:14:27,171 --> 00:14:29,305
You guys are truly amazing.

281
00:14:29,371 --> 00:14:32,005
All of you, medalists. You've all
represented America wonderfully.

282
00:14:32,071 --> 00:14:34,938
-Thank you for that. Hats off to you all.
-Yes. Thank you.

283
00:14:37,438 --> 00:14:39,838
Look, in the water, you guys are deadly.

284
00:14:39,905 --> 00:14:42,471
Out of the water,
I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

285
00:14:43,505 --> 00:14:47,238
How are you gonna win this thing today?
Who's gonna carry the team? Talk to me.

286
00:14:47,305 --> 00:14:50,571
I have been secretly training for this
since I was 10.

287
00:14:50,638 --> 00:14:53,738
-Every Friday, pizza and wings.
-[Riggle] Pizza and wings every Friday.

288
00:14:53,805 --> 00:14:56,305
-Secret training, I like that.
-Oh, yeah.

289
00:14:56,371 --> 00:14:58,738
Ryan Lochte with his secret training.
How about you, Ryan?

290
00:14:58,805 --> 00:15:00,471
I'm just looking at this plate,

291
00:15:00,538 --> 00:15:02,905
I'm visualizing how I can
take down as many wings as possible.

292
00:15:02,971 --> 00:15:05,671
See? That's a big Olympic thing,
visualization. Am I right, Max?

293
00:15:05,738 --> 00:15:08,538
Yep, absolutely. And we're working
on a little bit of the technique.

294
00:15:08,605 --> 00:15:10,371
Matt has been giving us some tips,

295
00:15:10,438 --> 00:15:13,038
but he's been keeping the ground-breaking
things close to his heart.

296
00:15:13,105 --> 00:15:15,738
But hopefully, we got some techniques
we're gonna implement

297
00:15:15,805 --> 00:15:17,105
that should help expedite things.

298
00:15:17,171 --> 00:15:21,971
Okay. I know you consume between 6000
and 8000 calories when you're training.

299
00:15:22,038 --> 00:15:23,338
Not in the pool today.

300
00:15:24,171 --> 00:15:27,538
When you get done eating, wait 15 minutes
before you can get back in the pool.

301
00:15:27,605 --> 00:15:29,805
Everybody knows that.
That's not me, that's just science.

302
00:15:29,871 --> 00:15:32,105
-You know. Right.
-Nikki, that's science. All right.

303
00:15:32,171 --> 00:15:35,071
-Let's get ready to do this thing.
-Are you guys ready?

304
00:15:35,138 --> 00:15:37,105
Guess what, the rules are simple.

305
00:15:37,171 --> 00:15:42,338
So whichever side eats the most wings
in three minutes wins.

306
00:15:42,405 --> 00:15:43,605
So are you guys ready for that?

307
00:15:43,671 --> 00:15:45,838
Matt Stonie, are you ready to take on

308
00:15:45,905 --> 00:15:48,938
three Olympic athletes
right here, live on Netflix?

309
00:15:49,005 --> 00:15:51,138
-Yeah!
-[audience cheering]

310
00:16:03,171 --> 00:16:05,205
-[Riggle] Gentlemen, are you ready?
-Ready.

311
00:16:05,271 --> 00:16:07,338
-Matt Stonie, are you ready?
-Good.

312
00:16:08,338 --> 00:16:11,805
Three, two, one…

313
00:16:12,271 --> 00:16:13,338
eat!

314
00:16:13,405 --> 00:16:15,838
-Let's go!
-Go, go, go!

315
00:16:15,905 --> 00:16:17,738
Come on, Matt. You've got this.

316
00:16:18,305 --> 00:16:21,671
All right, the Olympians are ahead--
No, they are tied.

317
00:16:21,738 --> 00:16:24,805
The Olympians are pulling ahead.
This is crazy.

318
00:16:25,471 --> 00:16:27,371
Good job, Matt. You've got this.

319
00:16:28,171 --> 00:16:29,871
Matt, you are tied with the Olympians.

320
00:16:29,938 --> 00:16:32,838
We are at two minutes, 40 seconds.

321
00:16:33,738 --> 00:16:36,438
Ryan Lochte looks a little slow there.

322
00:16:36,505 --> 00:16:39,838
[Riggle] Oh, it is decisively even, Nikki.

323
00:16:39,905 --> 00:16:42,138
-[Garcia] This is crazy.
-[Riggle] This is close.

324
00:16:43,571 --> 00:16:46,771
Come on, Matt. We've got you.
Come on, give us a chant.

325
00:16:46,838 --> 00:16:49,138
[band drumming rhythmic beat]

326
00:16:49,205 --> 00:16:54,738
[chanting] Go, eat the wings!
Go, eat the wings! Go, eat the wings!

327
00:16:55,471 --> 00:16:57,671
-[Garcia] That's right.
-[chanting continues]

328
00:16:57,738 --> 00:16:59,738
There you go. I like this, Rob.

329
00:16:59,805 --> 00:17:01,638
You're joining the competition.

330
00:17:02,138 --> 00:17:04,971
All right, we are at almost two minutes.

331
00:17:05,105 --> 00:17:06,638
Matt is ahead.

332
00:17:06,705 --> 00:17:09,805
Matt at 17, the Olympians at 12.

333
00:17:09,871 --> 00:17:12,871
Matt, they look like
they're slowing down. Keep going.

334
00:17:12,938 --> 00:17:15,438
Let's set a record
right now here on Netflix.

335
00:17:20,471 --> 00:17:23,205
-I'll ask these guys some questions.
-Yeah.

336
00:17:23,271 --> 00:17:25,771
I know you are in an eating competition,

337
00:17:25,838 --> 00:17:29,405
so it might be a bad time
to ask some questions.

338
00:17:30,171 --> 00:17:32,571
What's your favorite Rob Riggle movie?

339
00:17:32,638 --> 00:17:34,705
You know what? I'll answer for you.

340
00:17:35,471 --> 00:17:36,938
What's that? You said all of them?

341
00:17:37,005 --> 00:17:40,005
-[laughing] Okay. That's amazing.
-[Garcia] The Olympians are at 18.

342
00:17:40,071 --> 00:17:42,838
-We are gonna hit a minute 30.
-[Riggle] Ryan Lochte!

343
00:17:42,905 --> 00:17:45,238
Look at him go. That is cleaning the bone.

344
00:17:45,305 --> 00:17:47,971
-Ryan Lochte's setting a record.
-[Garcia] We're at the halfway point.

345
00:17:48,038 --> 00:17:49,238
Halfway point.

346
00:17:50,005 --> 00:17:52,038
[Riggle] What's going on over here
with Matt Stonie?

347
00:17:53,638 --> 00:17:55,738
All right, a minute 19.

348
00:17:56,238 --> 00:17:59,838
Matt Stonie at 31 wings,
the Olympians at 22.

349
00:18:01,338 --> 00:18:03,405
All right, band, let's hear you.

350
00:18:03,471 --> 00:18:04,571
Come on, band.

351
00:18:04,638 --> 00:18:06,705
[band playing upbeat rhythm]

352
00:18:08,771 --> 00:18:13,805
[chanting] Go, eat the wings!
Go, eat the wings! Go, eat the wings!

353
00:18:13,871 --> 00:18:16,738
The crowd out here's so loud, Nikki,
I can't even hear myself.

354
00:18:16,805 --> 00:18:18,505
[Garcia] I can't even hear any of it.

355
00:18:18,571 --> 00:18:21,871
-All I can hear is the chomping of wings…
-Right?

356
00:18:21,938 --> 00:18:23,771
…coming from the Olympians
and from Matt Stonie.

357
00:18:23,838 --> 00:18:26,038
But I've never seen anything like it.

358
00:18:26,105 --> 00:18:30,405
Never seen anything. Did you ever think,
at this point, 45 seconds left,

359
00:18:30,471 --> 00:18:32,938
-that Matt Stonie would be at 41?
-We're under a minute!

360
00:18:33,005 --> 00:18:34,605
-Under a minute!
-We're under a minute!

361
00:18:34,671 --> 00:18:35,971
Do you think they can catch up?

362
00:18:36,538 --> 00:18:38,338
-[Riggle] Not a chance!
-[Garcia] Not a chance.

363
00:18:38,405 --> 00:18:41,905
We have Matt Stonie at 43 wings,
Olympians at 29.

364
00:18:41,971 --> 00:18:44,738
-You're doing a great job.
-Thirty seconds left.

365
00:18:44,805 --> 00:18:45,971
Keep going, don't stop,

366
00:18:46,038 --> 00:18:48,371
-all the way to the finish line.
-Are you gonna set a record?

367
00:18:48,438 --> 00:18:51,171
-You got this, 45 wings.
-All the way to the finish line.

368
00:18:52,405 --> 00:18:55,538
-The pride of America, at this table.
-Twenty seconds left!

369
00:18:56,271 --> 00:18:57,838
Are they catching up?

370
00:18:57,905 --> 00:19:00,505
-They can pound those.
-[Garcia] Come on, guys. Got 15 seconds.

371
00:19:00,571 --> 00:19:02,138
[Riggle] I can sub in for you guys.

372
00:19:03,205 --> 00:19:07,871
[all] Ten, nine, eight, seven, six,

373
00:19:07,938 --> 00:19:12,571
five, four, three, two, one.

374
00:19:12,638 --> 00:19:14,805
It's over! It's over!

375
00:19:14,871 --> 00:19:17,238
Hands up, hands up!

376
00:19:17,305 --> 00:19:20,805
Wow! What a demonstration
of wing-eating prowess.

377
00:19:20,871 --> 00:19:23,338
-Oh, my gosh, Rob.
-I have never seen anything like it.

378
00:19:23,405 --> 00:19:24,238
Ever.

379
00:19:24,305 --> 00:19:27,871
Matt Stonie in a cold sweat on a hot day.

380
00:19:28,438 --> 00:19:31,205
-Oh, my God, you look terrible.
-He's still chewing.

381
00:19:31,271 --> 00:19:32,838
You look terrible.

382
00:19:32,905 --> 00:19:33,938
[muffled] I feel terrible.

383
00:19:34,005 --> 00:19:36,538
Oh, you feel terrible?
But you won, my man.

384
00:19:36,605 --> 00:19:37,905
[muffled] Yeah.
-[Garcia] You won.

385
00:19:37,971 --> 00:19:39,671
Let's hear it for Matt Stonie.

386
00:19:39,738 --> 00:19:42,171
Matt, I am so impressed.

387
00:19:43,571 --> 00:19:44,471
Okay.

388
00:19:45,105 --> 00:19:47,405
Nikki, do you want to tell them
what happened here?

389
00:19:47,471 --> 00:19:50,638
-I-- Okay.
-I'm still piecing it together myself.

390
00:19:50,705 --> 00:19:53,038
So officially, the winner,

391
00:19:53,105 --> 00:19:57,238
with 53 wings in three minutes,

392
00:19:57,305 --> 00:20:00,471
-is Matt Stonie!
-What?!

393
00:20:01,238 --> 00:20:03,171
Yes!

394
00:20:04,138 --> 00:20:05,971
[Garcia]
Just gotta stick to swimming, right?

395
00:20:06,038 --> 00:20:10,405
Guys, our Olympians, our challengers,

396
00:20:10,471 --> 00:20:12,738
our national pride and joy,

397
00:20:13,471 --> 00:20:15,771
medalists all, what did you come in at?

398
00:20:15,838 --> 00:20:17,838
-Thirty-two wings, something like that?
-Thirty-six.

399
00:20:17,905 --> 00:20:19,638
-Thirty-six wings!
-Thirty-six wings.

400
00:20:19,705 --> 00:20:21,171
That's 12 a-piece.

401
00:20:21,238 --> 00:20:24,305
I could even do the math on that.
That's 12 a-piece in three minutes.

402
00:20:24,371 --> 00:20:28,371
Still, where I come from, very respectable
but not against Matt Stonie, guys.

403
00:20:28,438 --> 00:20:30,738
-He is a legend in the biz.
-He's an absolute animal.

404
00:20:30,805 --> 00:20:31,805
He's an absolute animal.

405
00:20:31,871 --> 00:20:34,638
I didn't even look over there,
but looking at his bowl, it's ridiculous.

406
00:20:34,705 --> 00:20:37,605
It was literally insane to watch.
I've never seen anything like it.

407
00:20:37,671 --> 00:20:39,871
-I just brought my A-game.
-[Riggle] You represented well.

408
00:20:39,938 --> 00:20:41,871
-We appreciate that.
-Brought your A-game for sure.

409
00:20:43,605 --> 00:20:45,738
All right, guys. Nikki?

410
00:20:45,805 --> 00:20:48,105
You know what?
I think we're done out here for now.

411
00:20:48,171 --> 00:20:49,905
I say we go back to Chris and Cari.

412
00:20:49,971 --> 00:20:52,438
-There you go. There you go.
-What do you got?

413
00:20:52,505 --> 00:20:54,271
-[audience cheering]
-[Champion] My goodness!

414
00:20:54,338 --> 00:20:56,571
I wasn't prepared. I wasn't prepared.

415
00:20:56,638 --> 00:20:59,205
All I have to say,
Matt Stonie, you're amazing.

416
00:20:59,271 --> 00:21:02,705
Next time, we'll call Michael Phelps or
Katie Ledecky to run the last leg of that.

417
00:21:02,771 --> 00:21:04,971
[Champion] Clearly,
'cause the Olympians couldn't do it.

418
00:21:05,105 --> 00:21:07,571
We were thinking about competitive eating
being an Olympic sport,

419
00:21:07,638 --> 00:21:10,005
but I don't know if that's the case
anymore after seeing that.

420
00:21:10,071 --> 00:21:11,638
Maybe more so, actually.

421
00:21:11,705 --> 00:21:14,605
Hey, Kobayashi and Joey Chestnut
both mentioned it.

422
00:21:14,671 --> 00:21:16,471
They wanna do it, 2028.

423
00:21:16,538 --> 00:21:18,671
Joey was like,
"I'll be on the team if they'll have me."

424
00:21:18,738 --> 00:21:20,171
-"If"?
-I think you're good.

425
00:21:20,238 --> 00:21:21,205
I think they're good too.

426
00:21:21,271 --> 00:21:23,771
Meanwhile,
you bring up Kobayashi and Joey Chestnut

427
00:21:23,838 --> 00:21:26,671
thinking about being
an Olympic sport, competitive eating.

428
00:21:26,738 --> 00:21:28,105
I wanna talk about Kobayashi.

429
00:21:28,171 --> 00:21:30,371
He's considered
the godfather of competitive eating…

430
00:21:30,438 --> 00:21:32,071
-Mm-hmm.
-…because of his innovative style.

431
00:21:32,138 --> 00:21:33,305
He's done things before

432
00:21:33,371 --> 00:21:35,705
that so many people
have never been able to see.

433
00:21:35,771 --> 00:21:37,871
So I wanna take you back,
so you can understand

434
00:21:37,938 --> 00:21:39,938
the mental and physical preparedness

435
00:21:40,005 --> 00:21:43,671
that Kobayashi has put into this sport,
and the type of eater that he is.

436
00:21:43,738 --> 00:21:44,571
Take a listen.

437
00:21:45,071 --> 00:21:50,005
[announcer] The most decorated eater
in history. It's Kobayashi!

438
00:21:50,071 --> 00:21:52,638
[in Japanese]
Well, this is true of any sport,

439
00:21:52,705 --> 00:21:59,238
but the thing that people
most want to see is who's the best.

440
00:21:59,305 --> 00:22:03,705
And personally, I believe I became
number one in the world.

441
00:22:06,138 --> 00:22:09,338
[Champion in English] In 2001,
at just 23 years old, Takeru Kobayashi

442
00:22:09,405 --> 00:22:11,138
first emerged on the scene.

443
00:22:11,205 --> 00:22:13,638
[commentator 1]
A new world record, unbelievable.

444
00:22:13,705 --> 00:22:16,971
[Champion] And revolutionized
the world of competitive eating.

445
00:22:17,038 --> 00:22:20,271
[commentator 2] Never have we seen
that many hot dogs in 12 minutes.

446
00:22:20,338 --> 00:22:22,071
[Champion]
Turning it from a local competition

447
00:22:22,138 --> 00:22:24,171
into a world-renowned sport.

448
00:22:24,738 --> 00:22:28,305
[narrator] Meet Takeru Kobayashi,
the world's fastest eater.

449
00:22:28,371 --> 00:22:32,071
[Champion] Until an unknown rookie
named Joey Chestnut entered the scene,

450
00:22:32,138 --> 00:22:34,205
determined to take him down.

451
00:22:34,738 --> 00:22:37,705
[in Japanese] I thought Chestnut
would get stronger at some point

452
00:22:37,771 --> 00:22:40,105
and become a rival in the future.

453
00:22:40,171 --> 00:22:44,071
But at that point,
I didn't see a rival yet.

454
00:22:44,571 --> 00:22:47,171
[Champion in English]
Kobayashi and Chestnut battled for years,

455
00:22:47,238 --> 00:22:48,638
pushing one another to their limits,

456
00:22:48,705 --> 00:22:52,938
resulting in a devastating injury
to Kobayashi's jaw.

457
00:22:53,005 --> 00:22:56,705
[man] That is the width that he can open
his jaw right now.

458
00:22:56,771 --> 00:22:58,971
[in Japanese]
My performance level declined.

459
00:22:59,038 --> 00:23:03,805
[announcer in English]
In first place, with 66 hot dogs and buns,

460
00:23:03,871 --> 00:23:07,805
Joey Chestnut!

461
00:23:09,471 --> 00:23:11,305
[Champion]
They competed for two more years,

462
00:23:11,371 --> 00:23:13,405
with Chestnut
successfully defending his title.

463
00:23:13,471 --> 00:23:14,471
Chestnut!

464
00:23:15,038 --> 00:23:17,138
[Champion]
Just before the 2010 hot dog contest,

465
00:23:17,205 --> 00:23:18,905
Kobayashi refused to sign

466
00:23:18,971 --> 00:23:21,471
an exclusive deal
with Major League Eating,

467
00:23:21,538 --> 00:23:24,005
and in turn was banned from the stage.

468
00:23:24,071 --> 00:23:27,605
[in Japanese] But after that, even though
I wasn't allowed to enter the contest,

469
00:23:27,671 --> 00:23:29,305
I went to the venue.

470
00:23:29,371 --> 00:23:32,471
I got swept up in the moment,
and the next thing I know,

471
00:23:32,538 --> 00:23:34,205
I'd climbed onto the stage.

472
00:23:34,271 --> 00:23:36,538
[reporter in English]
Takeru "Tsunami" Kobayashi

473
00:23:36,605 --> 00:23:37,638
was detained by police

474
00:23:37,705 --> 00:23:40,338
after storming the stage
at the annual contest

475
00:23:40,405 --> 00:23:43,038
following a contractual dispute
with organizers.

476
00:23:43,971 --> 00:23:46,305
[Champion]
In the nearly 15 years since being banned

477
00:23:46,371 --> 00:23:48,238
from Nathan's Hot Dog Contest,

478
00:23:48,305 --> 00:23:52,138
Kobayashi has continued
to be dominant in other competitions.

479
00:23:53,238 --> 00:23:54,471
[announcer] Kobayashi!

480
00:23:54,538 --> 00:23:57,638
[Champion] But despite
his continued success, he remains focused

481
00:23:57,705 --> 00:24:01,238
-on regaining the title that matters most.
-[announcer] Joey Chestnut!

482
00:24:01,305 --> 00:24:04,638
[in Japanese] Chestnut is my bigger rival,

483
00:24:04,705 --> 00:24:11,471
therefore the purpose of this challenge
is to determine

484
00:24:11,538 --> 00:24:16,438
who holds the title of the world's
greatest competitive eater.

485
00:24:16,505 --> 00:24:18,871
I truly believe that I will win.

486
00:24:18,938 --> 00:24:21,805
-[audience cheering]
-[Champion in English] Here we are, folks.

487
00:24:21,871 --> 00:24:26,905
Back inside the HyperX Arena,
we are ready for The Innovator.

488
00:24:26,971 --> 00:24:31,905
It is time to take a look
at Kobayashi in his dressing room,

489
00:24:31,971 --> 00:24:34,171
prepared, locked in.

490
00:24:34,238 --> 00:24:35,738
He's got his sandals on.

491
00:24:35,805 --> 00:24:39,238
I don't know if he's using those
in the competition, Chris.

492
00:24:39,305 --> 00:24:41,771
-That's always a fun thing.
-Yeah, always a fun thing.

493
00:24:41,838 --> 00:24:44,771
He's always got a different look,
he is hip-hoppy,

494
00:24:44,838 --> 00:24:46,405
he is fun, he is energetic,

495
00:24:46,471 --> 00:24:48,371
-and he has missed the limelight.
-He has.

496
00:24:48,438 --> 00:24:52,938
He's been competing in other stuff,
but never right in front of center stage,

497
00:24:53,005 --> 00:24:55,205
-with Joey Chestnut next to him.
-Yeah.

498
00:24:55,271 --> 00:24:57,638
-There's a lot on the line for him.
-The story line is this.

499
00:24:57,705 --> 00:24:59,638
We talked about the jaw injury.
He talked about it.

500
00:24:59,705 --> 00:25:02,238
He said he didn't like the fact
that Joey thought he was lying,

501
00:25:02,305 --> 00:25:04,905
and he said he's been able to deal
with this jaw injury,

502
00:25:04,971 --> 00:25:06,505
but he's back to redeem himself.

503
00:25:06,571 --> 00:25:10,338
There is some narrative
around the way he left the sport.

504
00:25:10,405 --> 00:25:13,005
Oh, yeah. Joey thought for 10 or 15 years,

505
00:25:13,071 --> 00:25:15,838
"He didn't want to face me,
so he came up with this jaw thing."

506
00:25:15,905 --> 00:25:17,838
-He mentioned that to us this weekend.
-Yeah.

507
00:25:17,905 --> 00:25:21,705
It is still bubbling over as we are now
less than about 22 minutes away…

508
00:25:21,771 --> 00:25:23,338
-I cannot wait.
-…from the main event.

509
00:25:23,405 --> 00:25:26,138
-The people in here are ready for it.
-Are you all already?

510
00:25:26,205 --> 00:25:27,071
Whoo!

511
00:25:27,138 --> 00:25:30,905
-All right! It's getting loud out here.
-It's getting wild!

512
00:25:30,971 --> 00:25:34,205
Oh, yeah. Okay, listen.
Let's dive right in.

513
00:25:34,271 --> 00:25:38,805
Joining us now, one of UK's
most famous competitive eaters,

514
00:25:38,871 --> 00:25:42,638
who currently holds
23 Guinness World Record titles.

515
00:25:42,705 --> 00:25:46,905
She's basically wrote the book
on how to break eating records,

516
00:25:46,971 --> 00:25:50,771
and would eat that book
if it meant getting another record.

517
00:25:50,838 --> 00:25:53,971
Please welcome Leah Shutkever!

518
00:25:56,738 --> 00:25:59,338
-[Garcia] Hi!
-Hello! Hello!

519
00:25:59,405 --> 00:26:00,905
All right!

520
00:26:01,771 --> 00:26:05,238
Okay, Leah, we are so excited
to have you today.

521
00:26:05,305 --> 00:26:09,205
Obviously, we all know
that you have broken a ton of records.

522
00:26:09,271 --> 00:26:10,105
A few.

523
00:26:10,171 --> 00:26:13,271
So, which would you say
is the most difficult to achieve?

524
00:26:13,338 --> 00:26:16,271
I have attempted so many records,

525
00:26:16,338 --> 00:26:19,638
and I've broken
34 Guinness World Record titles.

526
00:26:19,705 --> 00:26:20,938
[Garcia & Riggle] Thirty-four?!

527
00:26:21,005 --> 00:26:23,905
Every single one has
its own complexities and difficulties,

528
00:26:23,971 --> 00:26:26,038
but I would say the most difficult one

529
00:26:26,105 --> 00:26:29,071
off the top of my head
would be the fastest time

530
00:26:29,138 --> 00:26:31,371
to drink a liter of gravy.

531
00:26:31,438 --> 00:26:36,105
-[audience groans]
-But you have to drink it through a straw.

532
00:26:36,171 --> 00:26:37,805
-[Garcia gasps]
-[audience exclaims]

533
00:26:37,871 --> 00:26:41,571
-Wait, the suction, that's insane!
-Yeah. The suction is insane. Correct.

534
00:26:41,638 --> 00:26:44,971
Guinness Records is all-encompassing.
They really cover every record possible.

535
00:26:45,038 --> 00:26:47,305
They do. No wonder the book
keeps getting bigger.

536
00:26:47,371 --> 00:26:50,071
-Gravy through a straw! A liter!
-I mean, wow!

537
00:26:50,138 --> 00:26:52,638
All right, well,
Leah, today you are going to attempt

538
00:26:52,705 --> 00:26:56,105
to set another
Guinness World Record title right here,

539
00:26:56,171 --> 00:26:59,738
-live on Netflix.
-Yes! Yes!

540
00:27:04,471 --> 00:27:10,005
As you can see, today, Leah faces
her greatest adversary to date.

541
00:27:10,071 --> 00:27:11,805
Big-ass watermelons.

542
00:27:11,871 --> 00:27:12,738
[laughs]

543
00:27:12,805 --> 00:27:15,771
And to make sure
everything is done officially,

544
00:27:15,838 --> 00:27:19,805
we have our Guinness World Records
adjudicator, Hannah Ortman.

545
00:27:19,871 --> 00:27:21,705
-Oh, yeah!
-Welcome, Hannah.

546
00:27:21,771 --> 00:27:23,805
-[audience cheering]
-[Garcia] Okay, Leah.

547
00:27:23,871 --> 00:27:29,171
So, Leah, you can take a seat,
and we'll get ready to set that record.

548
00:27:29,238 --> 00:27:30,871
-Let's do it.
-We know you can do it.

549
00:27:30,938 --> 00:27:32,938
-[audience cheering]
-[Garcia] You got this. Yes.

550
00:27:33,538 --> 00:27:36,938
[Ortman] Leah, you are attempting
the Guinness World Record title

551
00:27:37,005 --> 00:27:38,971
for the most watermelon eaten

552
00:27:39,038 --> 00:27:40,138
in three minutes.

553
00:27:40,205 --> 00:27:45,671
The minimum amount to consume
is 1750 grams.

554
00:27:45,738 --> 00:27:48,471
Do you understand the rules,
and are you ready?

555
00:27:50,338 --> 00:27:51,705
[exhales deeply]

556
00:27:51,771 --> 00:27:52,905
Yes, I'm ready.

557
00:27:52,971 --> 00:27:56,471
For the Americans in the audience,
1750 grams is 4 pounds.

558
00:27:56,538 --> 00:27:59,671
-Oh, good. I was gonna say.
-[Ortman] For the record…

559
00:28:00,671 --> 00:28:04,171
three, two, one, go.

560
00:28:04,238 --> 00:28:06,738
-[audience cheering]
-Yes, you got this, Leah! Come on!

561
00:28:06,805 --> 00:28:11,338
-[Riggle] Go! Go! She's going for it!
-[Garcia] Oh, my God! that is insane!

562
00:28:11,405 --> 00:28:12,605
[Riggle] She's going for it!

563
00:28:12,671 --> 00:28:14,605
[Garcia] You got it, Leah. You got it.

564
00:28:15,605 --> 00:28:17,738
-[Riggle] Wow! Wow!
-[Garcia] Come on, Leah.

565
00:28:18,505 --> 00:28:20,505
Oh, my gosh. I'm amazed.

566
00:28:20,571 --> 00:28:24,071
-That's one! That's one!
-That's one. It's already gone.

567
00:28:25,605 --> 00:28:28,571
-Four hundred grams down.
-That was amazing.

568
00:28:28,638 --> 00:28:32,971
I can't believe what I'm seeing!
The juice is dripping off her elbow!

569
00:28:33,038 --> 00:28:34,105
[Garcia] That is crazy.

570
00:28:34,171 --> 00:28:36,905
-Band, let's hear it, band! Come on, band!
-[band playing rhythmic beat]

571
00:28:36,971 --> 00:28:39,205
Look at that pace! Look at that pace!

572
00:28:39,271 --> 00:28:41,538
[Garcia] This is crazy.
I've never seen anything like this.

573
00:28:41,605 --> 00:28:43,538
-[Riggle] That's two. That's two.
-[Garcia] Two.

574
00:28:43,605 --> 00:28:48,238
She's had two down.
We are almost at 2 minutes, 15 seconds.

575
00:28:48,305 --> 00:28:50,405
-Eight hundred grams even.
-[Riggle] That's 800 grams.

576
00:28:50,471 --> 00:28:52,638
She just finished 800 grams, Nikki.

577
00:28:52,705 --> 00:28:55,805
-Could you do 800 grams? No.
-No. No.

578
00:28:57,071 --> 00:28:58,771
Come on, Leah. You got this.

579
00:28:58,838 --> 00:29:01,071
-[Riggle] She's slowing.
-[Garcia] Look how focused she is.

580
00:29:01,138 --> 00:29:03,605
[Riggle] She's taking pauses
to catch her breath, I assume.

581
00:29:03,671 --> 00:29:04,971
[band chanting] Eat those melons!

582
00:29:05,105 --> 00:29:07,838
-We're almost at two minutes--
-I don't know if it's fatigue or pacing.

583
00:29:07,905 --> 00:29:11,105
I don't know if it's a strategy.
I don't know…

584
00:29:12,005 --> 00:29:14,205
That's 1200 grams eaten.
She's just hit 1200.

585
00:29:14,271 --> 00:29:17,805
-[Garcia] 1200 grams even, everyone!
-[Riggle] She's at 1200 grams.

586
00:29:17,871 --> 00:29:22,438
-Go! Go, Leah, go!
-A minute, 45. You got it, Leah.

587
00:29:22,505 --> 00:29:25,671
These are the blackout moments
she talks about. She's in the zone.

588
00:29:25,738 --> 00:29:28,405
She does blackout
when she goes into these competitions,

589
00:29:28,471 --> 00:29:31,371
-She's in a total blackout phase now.
-Total blackout phase.

590
00:29:31,438 --> 00:29:33,271
She doesn't even know we're here.

591
00:29:34,571 --> 00:29:39,538
-She's at 1600 grams!
-Sixteen hundred grams!

592
00:29:39,605 --> 00:29:41,671
We are dangerously close to the record.

593
00:29:41,738 --> 00:29:45,005
[Garcia]
A minute, 20 left. A minute, 20 left.

594
00:29:45,071 --> 00:29:48,305
A minute, 20 left.
Plenty of time. Plenty of time.

595
00:29:49,238 --> 00:29:51,505
Plenty of time for records to be broken.

596
00:29:52,605 --> 00:29:55,505
-Almost at one minutes.
-Closing in on one minute.

597
00:29:55,571 --> 00:29:57,605
I think she'll finish before.

598
00:29:59,905 --> 00:30:02,038
Two thousand grams!

599
00:30:02,105 --> 00:30:06,238
Two thousand grams!
I think we're there. I think we're there.

600
00:30:06,305 --> 00:30:09,205
-One minute left!
-[Riggle] One minute left!

601
00:30:09,271 --> 00:30:10,371
One minute left!

602
00:30:12,305 --> 00:30:14,438
-You've got this!
-[Garcia] Oh, she's struggling.

603
00:30:14,505 --> 00:30:16,871
She's struggling. You got this, Leah.

604
00:30:16,938 --> 00:30:20,205
-She's doing it! She's cruising.
-You got it.

605
00:30:20,271 --> 00:30:22,971
It's like a tease.
It's like a true champion.

606
00:30:24,271 --> 00:30:26,138
[Riggle] Yes! Yes!

607
00:30:26,205 --> 00:30:29,171
[Garcia] Okay, do not let the clock
run out. You've gotta finish this.

608
00:30:29,238 --> 00:30:31,271
That's all. That's all there is!

609
00:30:31,338 --> 00:30:35,405
-Thirty seconds left! Thirty seconds!
-With 30 seconds to spare.

610
00:30:36,205 --> 00:30:38,971
-[Garcia] Twenty-four hundred grams eaten.
-Oh, my God!

611
00:30:39,038 --> 00:30:40,905
There's nothing left on her tray!

612
00:30:40,971 --> 00:30:44,671
Oh, but we gotta let the clock run.
We gotta let it run.

613
00:30:44,738 --> 00:30:47,205
-We gotta let it run.
-Is that right, Hannah? Okay.

614
00:30:47,271 --> 00:30:49,738
-Fifteen seconds left.
-You want to drink the juice…?

615
00:30:49,805 --> 00:30:52,605
-I'm not allowed to.
-Oh, that was amazing.

616
00:30:52,671 --> 00:30:54,538
-Amazing.
-[Garcia] That was incredible. Amazing.

617
00:30:54,605 --> 00:30:58,971
[all] Ten, nine, eight, seven, six,

618
00:30:59,038 --> 00:31:02,571
five, four, three, two, one!

619
00:31:02,638 --> 00:31:05,971
Yes! Yes!

620
00:31:07,305 --> 00:31:10,805
-Leah! Oh, my goodness!
-Leah Shutkever!

621
00:31:10,871 --> 00:31:14,138
You don't want to touch me.
We can like air…

622
00:31:14,205 --> 00:31:17,471
[Garcia] Okay, so Hannah right now
is going to take a moment

623
00:31:17,538 --> 00:31:19,538
to sort out things officially, of course.

624
00:31:19,605 --> 00:31:22,005
That's right. It's Guinness.
They do things very efficiently.

625
00:31:22,071 --> 00:31:23,105
[Garcia] Very efficiently.

626
00:31:23,171 --> 00:31:25,971
[Riggle] She's weighing it in,
she's got a calculator and a clipboard.

627
00:31:26,038 --> 00:31:27,338
That makes everything official.

628
00:31:27,405 --> 00:31:29,538
[Garcia] It does.
Leah, how are you feeling?

629
00:31:29,605 --> 00:31:31,238
I feel hydrated.

630
00:31:31,305 --> 00:31:34,238
I'm the most hydrated person
around this pool right now.

631
00:31:34,305 --> 00:31:36,471
They don't have
a lot of watermelons in the UK.

632
00:31:36,538 --> 00:31:38,338
They don't have any citrus
as far as I know.

633
00:31:38,905 --> 00:31:42,871
-That's why they call you Limeys.
-I don't know what to say! Yes, we do.

634
00:31:42,938 --> 00:31:45,471
-[Garcia] No…
-It's imported. Okay.

635
00:31:46,105 --> 00:31:47,638
This is fantastic.

636
00:31:47,705 --> 00:31:49,205
Do you have a nickname?

637
00:31:49,271 --> 00:31:51,305
I'm thinking,
"The British Boa Constrictor,"

638
00:31:51,371 --> 00:31:52,805
the way you took that down.

639
00:31:52,871 --> 00:31:54,405
-I…
-[audience whoops, cheers]

640
00:31:55,671 --> 00:31:58,771
-[Garcia] Right? I mean, it should be.
-I'm sticking with that.

641
00:31:58,838 --> 00:32:00,338
[Garcia] But how are you going to feel

642
00:32:00,405 --> 00:32:04,138
when we find out in a few moments
that you set this record?

643
00:32:04,205 --> 00:32:08,105
-How will you feel if you did it?
-[Shutkever] My adrenaline is going crazy.

644
00:32:08,171 --> 00:32:11,771
I anticipate tears.
I'm hoping no tears, but there could be.

645
00:32:11,838 --> 00:32:13,938
-[Garcia] Number 34.
-Thirty-five.

646
00:32:14,005 --> 00:32:17,971
-[Garcia] Thirty-five!
-[Riggle] Her 35th Guinness World Record.

647
00:32:18,038 --> 00:32:20,838
-If Hannah says.
-If.

648
00:32:20,905 --> 00:32:23,705
-We have to wait for the official judge.
-Ready to give us the news?

649
00:32:23,771 --> 00:32:24,971
-I am ready.
-[Garcia gasps]

650
00:32:25,038 --> 00:32:28,138
[Riggle] Oh, boy. Here we go.
The official announcement from Hannah.

651
00:32:28,205 --> 00:32:32,005
Leah, today you attempted
the Guinness World Records title

652
00:32:32,071 --> 00:32:35,171
for the most watermelon eaten
in three minutes.

653
00:32:35,238 --> 00:32:39,705
The number to beat is 1750 grams.

654
00:32:40,738 --> 00:32:47,405
Today, you achieved
a total of 2000.56 grams.

655
00:32:49,738 --> 00:32:51,205
Yeah!

656
00:32:52,005 --> 00:32:53,471
Yes!

657
00:32:53,538 --> 00:32:55,971
Oh, my God.

658
00:32:56,571 --> 00:33:01,071
-That's amazing!
-Congratulations. You set another record.

659
00:33:01,138 --> 00:33:04,171
-You are officially amazing.
-[Garcia] She's so badass.

660
00:33:04,238 --> 00:33:06,205
-Thank you.
-Congratulations.

661
00:33:06,271 --> 00:33:08,071
-Let's hear it for Leah!
-Amazing!

662
00:33:08,138 --> 00:33:10,471
-Absolutely amazing!
-Oh, my gosh.

663
00:33:10,538 --> 00:33:11,971
Hold on one second.

664
00:33:13,938 --> 00:33:17,738
-Yes!
-Leah, don't eat this.

665
00:33:17,805 --> 00:33:19,405
-Don't-- [laughs]
-[Riggle] Okay.

666
00:33:19,471 --> 00:33:22,371
Oh, my gosh. A special thanks
to Guinness World Records,

667
00:33:22,438 --> 00:33:24,705
who has a new book coming out this fall.

668
00:33:24,771 --> 00:33:28,638
That's right. I hope to break the record
for most free copies received!

669
00:33:28,705 --> 00:33:30,205
-Yes.
-Back to you, Chris and Cari.

670
00:33:30,271 --> 00:33:34,271
Wait. Oh, my goodness.
I'm crying. I'm crying laughing.

671
00:33:34,338 --> 00:33:38,305
Did you see how excited Nikki got?
Give Leah a napkin, please!

672
00:33:38,371 --> 00:33:40,938
It's the least you can do
after she breaks the world record.

673
00:33:41,005 --> 00:33:42,571
You know what's interesting about this?

674
00:33:42,638 --> 00:33:45,438
You're a competitive eater.
So you look at their physique.

675
00:33:45,505 --> 00:33:46,838
It's really counterintuitive

676
00:33:46,905 --> 00:33:49,705
thinking about someone
who eats large amounts of food.

677
00:33:49,771 --> 00:33:52,471
They are so physically in shape,
are they not?

678
00:33:52,538 --> 00:33:53,805
Leah was so stacked.

679
00:33:53,871 --> 00:33:57,838
It's incredible,
2000.56 grams of watermelon?

680
00:33:57,905 --> 00:34:01,238
-Let's give it up for her.
-That is a new world record.

681
00:34:01,305 --> 00:34:03,505
-I tell you…
-She looked good while doing so.

682
00:34:03,571 --> 00:34:05,505
I would put those all around my house,

683
00:34:05,571 --> 00:34:07,138
so when you open up that door, I'm all,

684
00:34:07,205 --> 00:34:10,505
"Yeah, I'm the Guinness World Record
in all this stuff." It was incredible.

685
00:34:10,571 --> 00:34:13,305
Speaking of preparing for the event,
we gotta talk about this.

686
00:34:13,371 --> 00:34:14,838
Joey and Kobi, speaking of fit,

687
00:34:14,905 --> 00:34:17,371
they train like no other,
like other athletes as well.

688
00:34:17,438 --> 00:34:20,171
But their training is a little different
from what you would think.

689
00:34:20,238 --> 00:34:22,338
-Mm-hmm.
-So let's take a look at what they use.

690
00:34:22,405 --> 00:34:27,071
We're talking jaw, tongue, and stomach
to get them prepared for today's event.

691
00:34:27,805 --> 00:34:31,005
[upbeat music playing]

692
00:34:31,071 --> 00:34:32,738
My practices are intense.

693
00:34:33,838 --> 00:34:36,338
[in Japanese] I always prepare myself
for the competition.

694
00:34:37,838 --> 00:34:40,338
I am the most strict person I know.

695
00:34:42,038 --> 00:34:46,005
[in English] If you talk to a cyclist,
somebody who rides in the Tour de France,

696
00:34:46,071 --> 00:34:47,971
they do more than just ride a bike.

697
00:34:49,505 --> 00:34:51,405
[in Japanese]
I don't just practice eating.

698
00:34:51,471 --> 00:34:54,471
I believe it's also important
to prepare my entire body.

699
00:34:54,538 --> 00:34:57,838
[in English] Swallowing is one of the most
important things in competitive eating.

700
00:34:58,805 --> 00:35:02,405
Raising my head while I'm sitting back
on a weight bench and swallowing in air.

701
00:35:05,305 --> 00:35:07,405
[Kobayashi in Japanese]
Right before a competition,

702
00:35:07,471 --> 00:35:09,571
I drink three gallons of water.

703
00:35:09,638 --> 00:35:12,271
Because liquid goes to the stomach fast,

704
00:35:12,338 --> 00:35:15,405
to train your stomach, water is the best.

705
00:35:17,738 --> 00:35:20,538
[in English] It's been said
I can treat myself like a beanie baby.

706
00:35:20,605 --> 00:35:24,338
I push the food down with my hand to help
it settle and make room for more food.

707
00:35:25,371 --> 00:35:30,005
[Kobayashi in Japanese] I train inhaling
because it is a necessary movement

708
00:35:30,071 --> 00:35:31,805
when dropping food into your stomach.

709
00:35:32,871 --> 00:35:36,005
[in English] I can use my Adam's apple
to make sure I'm going all the way down.

710
00:35:39,471 --> 00:35:41,238
[in Japanese]
The tongue has to move quickly.

711
00:35:41,305 --> 00:35:43,205
In order to do that,

712
00:35:43,271 --> 00:35:46,971
I have to make my tongue strong
by doing a lot of tongue stretches.

713
00:35:50,438 --> 00:35:53,205
[in English] I use exercise ball
for your jaw, molded to my front teeth.

714
00:35:54,705 --> 00:35:56,971
I love everything about it.
I love getting ready

715
00:35:57,038 --> 00:35:59,871
to put an obscene amount of food
inside of me.

716
00:36:00,705 --> 00:36:01,905
It's what I love doing.

717
00:36:06,271 --> 00:36:09,838
[Rose] All right, to help us make some
sense of what these two are able to do,

718
00:36:09,905 --> 00:36:13,671
we are joined by former competitive eater,
Tim Janus.

719
00:36:13,738 --> 00:36:16,505
Eater X is with us.
Where is the face paint, man?

720
00:36:16,571 --> 00:36:17,838
I forgot, it got lost.

721
00:36:17,905 --> 00:36:18,871
-It got lost?
-Yeah.

722
00:36:18,938 --> 00:36:21,838
-We should ask our makeup people.
-I didn't think about that.

723
00:36:21,905 --> 00:36:22,938
So he is great.

724
00:36:23,005 --> 00:36:26,138
He has competed against both Kobayashi
and Joey Chestnut,

725
00:36:26,205 --> 00:36:28,971
six straight years,
top three finish at Nathan's.

726
00:36:29,038 --> 00:36:30,871
Okay, we just saw the training piece.

727
00:36:30,938 --> 00:36:34,038
Take us through what Kobayashi
has been doing the last few weeks

728
00:36:34,105 --> 00:36:35,638
to get prepared for this moment.

729
00:36:35,705 --> 00:36:37,905
[Janus] The purpose of all this
is to stretch his stomach

730
00:36:37,971 --> 00:36:42,105
and teach those muscles that help
the swallowing to get better and faster.

731
00:36:42,171 --> 00:36:44,705
So, Kobayashi,
for the last six months, he told me,

732
00:36:44,771 --> 00:36:47,405
he's been doing two full practices
each week.

733
00:36:47,471 --> 00:36:49,771
That means he's cooking up
70, 80, 90 hot dogs

734
00:36:49,838 --> 00:36:51,305
and eating them all in 10 minutes,

735
00:36:51,371 --> 00:36:52,805
and he's also doing speed runs,

736
00:36:52,871 --> 00:36:55,771
trying to work on that first minute
and get his top pace up.

737
00:36:55,838 --> 00:36:59,138
That sounds like a ton. Is that unusual
training for something like this?

738
00:36:59,205 --> 00:37:02,171
When you are training for an event
this big, that is not unusual.

739
00:37:02,238 --> 00:37:03,305
What is Joey doing?

740
00:37:03,371 --> 00:37:06,405
He's probably doing something similar,
at least one practice a week.

741
00:37:06,471 --> 00:37:10,271
You saw in the package all those exercises
that are targeting those tiny muscles.

742
00:37:10,338 --> 00:37:12,805
Okay, let's talk about
who has a competitive edge here.

743
00:37:12,871 --> 00:37:17,271
Earlier, he gave us the tale of the tape,
65 pounds, there's that difference.

744
00:37:17,338 --> 00:37:19,338
Who has the competitive edge
when it comes to eating?

745
00:37:19,405 --> 00:37:23,371
Boy, when it comes to stomach capacity,
the edge goes to Joey.

746
00:37:23,438 --> 00:37:26,105
That's going to be a big advantage
going down the stretch.

747
00:37:26,171 --> 00:37:28,971
When it comes to creativity,
Kobayashi has the advantage.

748
00:37:29,038 --> 00:37:32,405
He is known as a great innovator,
so we'll see what he brings to the table.

749
00:37:32,471 --> 00:37:35,405
So it is an art out here.
He has used the Solomon Method before.

750
00:37:35,471 --> 00:37:36,838
We are not going to see that.

751
00:37:36,905 --> 00:37:39,371
The Kobi Shake, who knows
if that's going to make an appearance?

752
00:37:39,438 --> 00:37:41,538
But you expect him to come up
with something today?

753
00:37:41,605 --> 00:37:44,271
Well, I'm interested to see if he does,

754
00:37:44,338 --> 00:37:47,171
and I know that's Joey's biggest concern,
is what will Kobayashi do?

755
00:37:47,238 --> 00:37:49,138
And we'll find that out right away.

756
00:37:49,205 --> 00:37:51,138
What about the legacy side of this thing?

757
00:37:51,205 --> 00:37:55,105
Everybody thinks right now
Joey is one, Kobayashi is two.

758
00:37:55,171 --> 00:37:56,638
Can that flip today?

759
00:37:56,705 --> 00:38:00,505
It can. Joey is one.
He won three hot dog contests in a row.

760
00:38:00,571 --> 00:38:03,071
-I think that's a pattern.
-[Rose] While Kobayashi was there.

761
00:38:03,138 --> 00:38:06,971
Yes. If he wins today, then there is
no question he remains number one.

762
00:38:07,038 --> 00:38:10,305
If Kobayashi wins,
I think he can change the narrative.

763
00:38:10,371 --> 00:38:12,105
But he has to win by more than a couple.

764
00:38:12,171 --> 00:38:15,238
Chris, I think with any battle of GOAT,

765
00:38:15,305 --> 00:38:18,871
there's always someone who says,
"Oh, but he didn't do it this way,

766
00:38:18,938 --> 00:38:21,738
and he didn't do that,
and he didn't eat in this era."

767
00:38:21,805 --> 00:38:25,205
Is there something that will say,
"This is it, they are done"?

768
00:38:25,271 --> 00:38:26,938
What does Joey need to do?

769
00:38:27,005 --> 00:38:29,871
-Oh, boy. To win this contest?
-Just to win.

770
00:38:29,938 --> 00:38:31,371
Joey has to outlast Kobayashi.

771
00:38:31,438 --> 00:38:34,138
He needs to get off to a good start.
He doesn't have to be leading.

772
00:38:34,205 --> 00:38:36,605
I think his capacity will allow him
to catch up.

773
00:38:36,671 --> 00:38:40,105
Kobayashi needs to get off
to a slightly faster start.

774
00:38:40,171 --> 00:38:42,138
He doesn't want to be trying to defend.

775
00:38:42,205 --> 00:38:44,771
He wants to have a big lead
going into his last minute.

776
00:38:44,838 --> 00:38:46,838
Finally, as a guy
who has done this, in ten seconds,

777
00:38:46,905 --> 00:38:50,271
how excited are you
and the competitive eating world overall?

778
00:38:50,338 --> 00:38:54,205
This is awesome. This is something
all of us have wanted to see for years.

779
00:38:54,271 --> 00:38:56,138
I know there's been talk of it for years,

780
00:38:56,205 --> 00:38:58,671
but to finally be here and to witness it
is incredible.

781
00:38:58,738 --> 00:39:01,471
I know you're excited.
Everybody else seems to be excited.

782
00:39:01,538 --> 00:39:02,805
-Are you guys excited?
-They are.

783
00:39:02,871 --> 00:39:05,171
-[audience cheering]
-You're excited. You guys are excited.

784
00:39:05,238 --> 00:39:08,238
Under eight minutes to go in this thing.

785
00:39:08,305 --> 00:39:11,705
You're going to stick around,
you're going to be here on the desk,

786
00:39:11,771 --> 00:39:15,405
breaking it down during the 10 minutes
of madness. We cannot wait.

787
00:39:15,471 --> 00:39:19,438
Of course, $100,000 is going to go
to the winner of this,

788
00:39:19,505 --> 00:39:21,738
but that's not all that's on the line.
Right, Rob Riggle?

789
00:39:21,805 --> 00:39:25,438
Oh, yeah. Oh, you got that right!
You got that right!

790
00:39:25,505 --> 00:39:29,471
The winner of today's battle will also
take home a one-of-a-kind trophy,

791
00:39:29,538 --> 00:39:35,538
and a championship title belt
designed by the WWE!

792
00:39:35,605 --> 00:39:38,605
[audience exclaiming, cheering]

793
00:39:38,671 --> 00:39:42,371
I know. Everybody just got a first look.
I don't blame you. It's impressive.

794
00:39:42,438 --> 00:39:48,371
By the way, before I forget,
starting live in January on Netflix, WWE.

795
00:39:48,438 --> 00:39:50,271
-Okay.
-[audience cheering]

796
00:39:53,238 --> 00:39:54,605
And also, by the way, here,

797
00:39:54,671 --> 00:39:58,738
accompanying tonight's title belt
is our crack security team.

798
00:39:58,805 --> 00:40:03,505
Please welcome WWE Hall of Famer,
Rey Mysterio,

799
00:40:03,571 --> 00:40:07,805
and superstar Omos!

800
00:40:07,871 --> 00:40:11,071
[upbeat music playing]

801
00:40:50,138 --> 00:40:52,505
Gentlemen, let me start over here, Rey.

802
00:40:53,538 --> 00:40:57,005
I'm looking at this belt.
This is a beautiful belt.

803
00:40:57,071 --> 00:40:58,838
Tell me about it if you would, please.

804
00:40:58,905 --> 00:41:01,638
-It's one-of-a-kind.
-It is one-of-a-kind. I can see that.

805
00:41:01,705 --> 00:41:04,171
To get this,
you need to do something special,

806
00:41:04,238 --> 00:41:06,405
like tonight, what's about to go down.

807
00:41:07,105 --> 00:41:09,138
I happened to notice, I couldn't help.

808
00:41:09,738 --> 00:41:13,338
I couldn't help but notice
you are wearing "Team Joey."

809
00:41:13,405 --> 00:41:14,838
-All the way.
-You're Team Joey?

810
00:41:14,905 --> 00:41:17,805
-But you know what-- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
-[audience cheering]

811
00:41:18,538 --> 00:41:19,538
Rob…

812
00:41:20,838 --> 00:41:26,205
[audience chanting] Joey! Joey! Joey!
Joey! Joey! Joey!

813
00:41:26,271 --> 00:41:30,405
Wow. You can't stop this crowd.
Fever pitch, fever pitch!

814
00:41:30,938 --> 00:41:35,005
With all due respect,
we've got to give Kobayashi his credit.

815
00:41:35,071 --> 00:41:37,205
He was the first to ever emerge
on the scene.

816
00:41:37,271 --> 00:41:38,105
[Riggle] Yep.

817
00:41:38,171 --> 00:41:42,238
But Chestnut has been dominating
this sport for the past decade.

818
00:41:42,305 --> 00:41:44,205
That's a good reason to back him.

819
00:41:44,771 --> 00:41:46,005
Who's winning tonight?

820
00:41:46,071 --> 00:41:48,038
[audience cheering]

821
00:41:49,838 --> 00:41:51,705
Rey Mysterio, thank you for that.

822
00:41:53,271 --> 00:41:56,138
-Now I turn to you, Omos.
-[audience laughs]

823
00:41:56,738 --> 00:41:58,338
You know, I really could have used you

824
00:41:58,405 --> 00:42:01,571
a couple minutes ago when I was out
by the pool. I needed some shade.

825
00:42:01,638 --> 00:42:03,505
[audience laughs]

826
00:42:03,571 --> 00:42:06,071
-Should've just asked.
-[laughing] Yeah.

827
00:42:06,138 --> 00:42:09,705
I see you're wearing "Team Kobi," Omos!
Tell me what's going on!

828
00:42:09,771 --> 00:42:12,271
-[audience cheering]
-Come on, come on! Come on!

829
00:42:13,638 --> 00:42:16,638
[audience chanting] Kobi! Kobi! Kobi!

830
00:42:16,705 --> 00:42:18,571
-You hear that? You hear that?
-I hear it.

831
00:42:18,638 --> 00:42:20,805
-Of course it's Team Kobi, right?
-[chanting continues]

832
00:42:20,871 --> 00:42:22,838
Come on, loud! Come on, come on, come on!

833
00:42:22,905 --> 00:42:27,071
[audience] Kobi! Kobi! Kobi! Kobi! Kobi!

834
00:42:27,138 --> 00:42:30,238
-Kobi! Kobi! Kobi! Kobi!
-[Riggle] Wow.

835
00:42:30,305 --> 00:42:31,705
-That's impressive.
-You hear that?

836
00:42:31,771 --> 00:42:35,238
I did hear that.
They heard it in the next state.

837
00:42:35,305 --> 00:42:37,838
That is a tsunami, what we just heard.

838
00:42:37,905 --> 00:42:39,538
-That is a tsunami.
-Right?

839
00:42:39,605 --> 00:42:43,871
Have you been a Kobayashi fan
from the get-go?

840
00:42:43,938 --> 00:42:46,705
-Absolutely, why not?
-No, okay, no, I love it.

841
00:42:46,771 --> 00:42:47,771
That's perfect to hear.

842
00:42:47,838 --> 00:42:49,638
-He is the tsunami of competitive eating.
-Yes.

843
00:42:49,705 --> 00:42:53,171
-I am the tsunami of the WWE.
-That's absolutely true.

844
00:42:53,238 --> 00:42:55,438
And I would agree with anything
you said at this moment.

845
00:42:55,505 --> 00:42:56,705
-[audience laughs]
-You better.

846
00:42:56,771 --> 00:42:58,138
-So, there you go.
-Good.

847
00:42:58,205 --> 00:43:01,238
There you have it!
The superstars have spoken!

848
00:43:01,905 --> 00:43:04,805
And yes, one is much taller
than the other one.

849
00:43:06,238 --> 00:43:10,038
We will find out which superstar
picked a winner very, very soon.

850
00:43:10,105 --> 00:43:13,638
It's almost time for the main event.
Isn't that right, Nikki?

851
00:43:13,705 --> 00:43:16,505
[Garcia] That is right!
We are almost ready.

852
00:43:17,171 --> 00:43:21,571
And the hot dogs
have entered the building!

853
00:43:21,638 --> 00:43:24,405
-Look, here they are.
-[audience chanting] Kobi! Kobi! Kobi!

854
00:43:24,471 --> 00:43:28,271
-Kobi! Kobi! Kobi!
-[Garcia] Yes.

855
00:43:28,338 --> 00:43:33,638
He is here too. But you guys, look!
These guys are like a NASCAR pit crew.

856
00:43:33,705 --> 00:43:38,805
There has been-- 300 hot dogs
have been made for this main event.

857
00:43:38,871 --> 00:43:40,938
I would say that's a lot
of hot dogs, right?

858
00:43:41,005 --> 00:43:43,605
-[audience cheering]
-[laughs]

859
00:43:43,671 --> 00:43:45,871
All right, back to you, Chris and Cari.

860
00:43:45,938 --> 00:43:48,338
All right, thank you very much.
Tim Janus still with us

861
00:43:48,405 --> 00:43:50,971
on the desk to lend his insight as well.

862
00:43:51,038 --> 00:43:55,005
So we are closing in on about
three minutes, Kobayashi and Chestnut.

863
00:43:55,071 --> 00:43:58,338
Fifteen years in the making.
So why in the world did it take so long?

864
00:43:58,405 --> 00:44:01,471
-Why did it take so long?
-In part, they had to agree on the rules.

865
00:44:01,538 --> 00:44:04,638
It wasn't easy. I think they both made
a little bit of saying,

866
00:44:04,705 --> 00:44:06,605
-"Okay, I'll give here, I'll give there."
-Sure.

867
00:44:06,671 --> 00:44:07,705
Let's run this thing down.

868
00:44:07,771 --> 00:44:09,771
A few of them are basic.
You are used to it.

869
00:44:09,838 --> 00:44:11,471
It's a 10-minute bout.

870
00:44:11,538 --> 00:44:15,938
The competitor who eats the most hot dogs
will be indeed declared the winner.

871
00:44:16,005 --> 00:44:19,805
There will be no separating
of meat from the bun.

872
00:44:19,871 --> 00:44:21,505
Also, no dunking.

873
00:44:21,571 --> 00:44:24,138
That is a big one
and that is a new one here.

874
00:44:24,205 --> 00:44:29,938
There will be fouls for infractions,
and also regurgitation or reversal.

875
00:44:30,505 --> 00:44:32,305
-[Janus laughs]
-[Rose] At the end of the time,

876
00:44:32,371 --> 00:44:36,005
both competitors will each have 30 seconds
to finish what is in their mouths.

877
00:44:36,071 --> 00:44:38,705
Unlike in the past, spilled food
will be weighed and may be deducted

878
00:44:38,771 --> 00:44:40,071
from each eater's total.

879
00:44:40,138 --> 00:44:42,971
In the event of a tie,
we will also go to overtime.

880
00:44:43,038 --> 00:44:44,705
We will explain that as well.

881
00:44:44,771 --> 00:44:47,138
In addition, we also have a team
of professional sports judges

882
00:44:47,205 --> 00:44:49,371
that are closely watching for infractions.

883
00:44:49,438 --> 00:44:50,905
The first one is a warning.

884
00:44:50,971 --> 00:44:53,971
The second one is a one hot dog violation.

885
00:44:54,038 --> 00:44:57,105
The other one, two hot dog violation.

886
00:44:57,171 --> 00:45:00,405
And if you have what is called
a reversal in your sport,

887
00:45:00,471 --> 00:45:02,938
that is indeed
a two hot dog violation as well.

888
00:45:03,005 --> 00:45:05,471
Did you ever think in your storied career…

889
00:45:05,538 --> 00:45:07,205
-Yes.
-…you would be able to run down

890
00:45:07,271 --> 00:45:08,305
hot dog rules that way?

891
00:45:08,371 --> 00:45:11,905
Come on! It's all about flexibility
and the more you could do, you know that.

892
00:45:11,971 --> 00:45:15,238
All right, so real quickly,
about the rules, who do these favor?

893
00:45:15,305 --> 00:45:17,638
I think they favor Kobayashi a little bit.

894
00:45:17,705 --> 00:45:21,305
Although I think Joey has had so much time
to prepare that he has negated much of

895
00:45:21,371 --> 00:45:22,938
that advantage that they give Kobayashi.

896
00:45:23,005 --> 00:45:24,771
But Kobayashi, we have to remember,

897
00:45:24,838 --> 00:45:27,938
he did lose in a dunking contest
and now we're not dunking.

898
00:45:28,005 --> 00:45:30,438
For the folks at home and obviously
for the audience here,

899
00:45:30,505 --> 00:45:32,805
tell us what we should be looking
for the first few minutes.

900
00:45:32,871 --> 00:45:37,138
I think we want to see what Kobayashi's
pace is and what his technique is.

901
00:45:37,205 --> 00:45:39,271
And with Joey, we are hoping
he gets into a rhythm.

902
00:45:39,338 --> 00:45:41,705
Because when he's in rhythm,
he's almost unstoppable.

903
00:45:41,771 --> 00:45:44,871
All right, so the record,
at least for Joey Chestnut, is 76.

904
00:45:44,938 --> 00:45:47,038
-Is that going down today?
-I think it is.

905
00:45:47,105 --> 00:45:49,038
I've talked to both eaters.
I really believe it is.

906
00:45:49,105 --> 00:45:51,305
-I think we're going to see records today.
-[alarm chimes]

907
00:45:51,371 --> 00:45:53,738
We're going to see the most
hot dogs eaten in the first minute

908
00:45:53,805 --> 00:45:55,438
and the most hot dogs eaten in 10 minutes.

909
00:45:55,505 --> 00:45:58,638
Yeah, that's awesome. You're ready,
you're ready, the world is ready.

910
00:45:58,705 --> 00:46:01,038
-I'm ready.
-I think Rob Riggle is ready as well.

911
00:46:01,105 --> 00:46:02,305
-Rob's ready.
-Sounds like it.

912

[rock music playing]

914
00:46:17,671 --> 00:46:19,271
Ladies and gentlemen,

915
00:46:19,338 --> 00:46:21,538
it's time for the main event!

916
00:46:22,271 --> 00:46:26,671
Are you ready to witness history?

917
00:46:33,038 --> 00:46:36,038
This is a rivalry 15 years in the making.

918
00:46:36,105 --> 00:46:37,738
They are the titans of the sport,

919
00:46:37,805 --> 00:46:41,171
the two greatest adversaries
to ever put food to mouth.

920
00:46:41,238 --> 00:46:43,971
Their battles have been
the stuff of legend,

921
00:46:44,038 --> 00:46:48,838
and they meet once again to settle
the score in front of the entire world.

922
00:46:48,905 --> 00:46:54,171
But only one can be crowned the Netflix
Unfinished Beef Hot Dog Champion.

923
00:46:55,405 --> 00:46:56,471
You know…

924
00:46:57,571 --> 00:46:58,805
you know they say…

925
00:47:00,771 --> 00:47:02,505
they say I have a big mouth.

926
00:47:03,438 --> 00:47:06,905
But it's nothing compared to these two!
So let's make some noise!

This rematch has been
15 years in the making.

930
00:47:26,871 --> 00:47:29,505
Let's settle this beef once and for all.

931
00:47:34,571 --> 00:47:36,671
It's time to give the people
what they want.

standing at 6'1" and weighing in
at 222 pounds,

935
00:47:57,271 --> 00:47:58,271
give it up

936
00:47:58,338 --> 00:48:04,238
for Joey Chestnut!

937
00:48:29,605 --> 00:48:31,605
[dramatic music playing]

938
00:48:33,705 --> 00:48:35,605
I'm here to win it all.

939
00:48:41,005 --> 00:48:43,071
I am the ultimate champion.

940
00:48:47,971 --> 00:48:49,305
It's time to eat.

standing at 5'8"
and weighing in at 158 pounds,

945
00:49:09,338 --> 00:49:16,338
it's Takeru Kobayashi!

947
00:49:49,371 --> 00:49:53,271
[Rose] Both of these competitors picked
the tracks in which they walked into.

948
00:49:53,338 --> 00:49:56,705
And how about the new look
for Kobayashi? Styling!

949
00:49:56,771 --> 00:49:59,571
[Champion] He looks
as if he is ready for business.

950
00:49:59,638 --> 00:50:03,005
He had a head full of hair just yesterday,
and now it is cut short.

951
00:50:03,071 --> 00:50:04,538
What does that mean when you see that?

952
00:50:04,605 --> 00:50:08,471
[Janus] Means he's ready for--
He came to play. He's all business today.

953
00:50:08,538 --> 00:50:10,438
I got the chills being here right now.

954
00:50:10,505 --> 00:50:14,905
[Rose] Once again, Kobayashi has told us
this is his final competition.

955
00:50:14,971 --> 00:50:19,038
Win or lose, he's walking away,
but now he walks into this arena.

956
00:50:19,105 --> 00:50:22,438
You got the sights, the sounds.
It is sold out here.

957
00:50:22,505 --> 00:50:24,605
What do you think is going on
through his brain

958
00:50:24,671 --> 00:50:26,105
and his heart now, Tim?

959
00:50:26,171 --> 00:50:29,405
Right now, they are both trying
to calm themselves down and focus.

960
00:50:29,471 --> 00:50:32,038
I think they're both in a good place,
good state of mind.

961
00:50:32,105 --> 00:50:33,771
They are not thinking anything else.

962
00:50:33,838 --> 00:50:35,405
They are looking at their cups,

963
00:50:35,471 --> 00:50:37,538
making sure
the first one is in a good position.

964
00:50:37,605 --> 00:50:38,838
They're looking at the hot dogs,

965
00:50:38,905 --> 00:50:40,938
trying to figure out
if they are nice and hot.

966
00:50:41,005 --> 00:50:42,371
And they are just ready to go.

967
00:50:42,438 --> 00:50:44,738
[Rose] Since Rob Riggle
is joining us on the desk,

968
00:50:44,805 --> 00:50:47,405
we're gonna do your old schtick
and each make predictions.

969
00:50:47,471 --> 00:50:48,838
I'm going to go first.

970
00:50:48,905 --> 00:50:50,805
Joey Chestnut, it's that simple.

00:50:52,271 --> 00:50:54,871
now he's going to be
a one-time Netflix champion.

973
00:50:54,938 --> 00:50:57,838
[Champion] I'm going with Kobayashi.
He has my favorite athletes' names,

974
00:50:57,905 --> 00:50:58,971
Kobi, simply said.

975
00:50:59,038 --> 00:51:02,438
I think that it's always good to go
for the underdog. I want that story.

976
00:51:02,505 --> 00:51:06,471
-All right. Tim Janus.
-I think the edge slightly goes to Joey.

977
00:51:06,538 --> 00:51:09,438
I think it's going to be a close one,
but I think Joey wins this.

978
00:51:10,005 --> 00:51:13,038
My heart is going with Kobayashi,
my money is going with Chestnut.

979
00:51:13,105 --> 00:51:15,271
-Okay.
-Nikki Garcia, who do you have?

980
00:51:15,338 --> 00:51:19,005
I gotta say, I'm on the wrong side,
but I'm going for Kobayashi.

981
00:51:19,071 --> 00:51:22,038
He's here for revenge,
and he wants to take that GOAT spot back!

982
00:51:22,105 --> 00:51:26,905
Wow, okay. So three of us have Kobayashi,
two have Chestnut.

983
00:51:26,971 --> 00:51:29,405
We are just about ready.

984
00:51:30,305 --> 00:51:34,705
Athletes are stepping forward.
Andrew Freund is our referee.

985
00:51:36,338 --> 00:51:38,938
-[audience chanting]
-[speaking Japanese]

986
00:51:39,005 --> 00:51:41,205
[Champion] You two sided with the Machete.

987
00:51:41,271 --> 00:51:43,005
[Rose speaking indistinctly]

988
00:51:43,071 --> 00:51:44,805
-Yeah.
-[Janus] All right. Thank you for that.

989
00:51:45,638 --> 00:51:48,838
[Rose] So they have 30 seconds
to set themselves in place.

990
00:51:48,905 --> 00:51:50,171
Quickly, what are they doing?

991
00:51:50,238 --> 00:51:52,305
[Janus] They want that first cup
in a good position

992
00:51:52,371 --> 00:51:55,605
because they will have to pick that up
and don't want to knock anything.

993
00:51:56,538 --> 00:52:00,471
They're also trying to feel that those
hot dogs are nice and hot, nice and fast.

994
00:52:01,271 --> 00:52:03,071
[Rose] Joey Chestnut grabs one more sip.

995
00:52:03,138 --> 00:52:07,805
Once again, they can drink the liquid,
they cannot dunk the hot dogs.

996
00:52:07,871 --> 00:52:10,205
-So that is something--
-[Janus] He's keeping that water.

997
00:52:10,271 --> 00:52:13,405
[Rose] One hundred thousand dollars
on the line for the winner.

998
00:52:13,471 --> 00:52:14,571
[Riggle] This is happening.

999
00:52:14,638 --> 00:52:17,505
[Janus] He's keeping that water
in his mouth to moisten the first bun.

1000
00:52:18,038 --> 00:52:21,405
[Rose] All right. Andrew Freund,
our referee is going to take it away.

1001
00:52:21,471 --> 00:52:23,471
[audience cheering]

1002
00:52:25,338 --> 00:52:28,805
-We have 10 minutes on the clock.
-[woman] Kobi, we love you.

1003
00:52:28,871 --> 00:52:32,905
The person who eats the most hot dogs
will be the champion.

1004
00:52:33,405 --> 00:52:35,438
-Kobayashi, are you ready?
-Yes.

1005
00:52:35,505 --> 00:52:37,905
[audience cheering]

1006
00:52:37,971 --> 00:52:39,771
Chestnut, ready?

1007
00:52:39,838 --> 00:52:42,371
[audience cheering]

1008
00:52:46,771 --> 00:52:49,805
[audience chanting]
Kobi! Kobi! Kobi! Kobi!

1009
00:52:49,871 --> 00:52:53,271
Ready, set, go!

1010
00:52:53,871 --> 00:53:00,738
[Rose] We are live on Netflix and underway
as Chestnut and Kobayashi renew a rivalry.

1011
00:53:00,805 --> 00:53:02,738
First minute, Tim. What do we look for?

1012
00:53:02,805 --> 00:53:05,905
[Janus] We are looking at the pace,
we're looking at Kobayashi's technique.

1013
00:53:05,971 --> 00:53:08,671
Is it different than Joey's?
Right now, it looks the same.

1014
00:53:08,738 --> 00:53:13,338
It's a real race to see who is better.
It's not anything-- No creativity.

1015
00:53:13,405 --> 00:53:15,305
[Rose] Kobayashi already with four each.

1016
00:53:15,371 --> 00:53:20,971
[Riggle] This is amazing. It is going
to be tit for tat the whole way.

1017
00:53:21,538 --> 00:53:23,738
Neither one
is gonna lift the foot off the gas.

1018
00:53:23,805 --> 00:53:25,738
[Champion] Tim, you told us
water was the key here.

1019
00:53:25,805 --> 00:53:28,171
You were worried that Kobayashi
took up too much water

1020
00:53:28,238 --> 00:53:32,471
while Joey Chestnut said he was going
with extra water. That was his strategy.

1021
00:53:32,538 --> 00:53:33,705
What are you seeing now?

1022
00:53:33,771 --> 00:53:37,671
[Janus] I think they're both going to
drink more water than in a normal contest.

1023
00:53:37,738 --> 00:53:41,771
Kobayashi has to be more careful
because he doesn't have the same capacity.

1024
00:53:42,771 --> 00:53:44,871
[Rose] Look at this, 10 seconds to go.

1025
00:53:44,938 --> 00:53:46,271
In the first minute,

1026
00:53:46,338 --> 00:53:49,371
Joey Chestnut's record in the first minute
is 13 dogs

1027
00:53:49,438 --> 00:53:50,871
and he has reached it.

1028
00:53:50,938 --> 00:53:54,705
Kobayashi has reached his personal best
for the first minute as well.

1029
00:53:54,771 --> 00:53:55,638
But he is trailing.

1030
00:53:55,705 --> 00:53:58,005
[Janus] These are both
fantastic first minutes.

1031
00:53:58,071 --> 00:53:59,938
They are ahead of their dunking pace.

1032
00:54:00,005 --> 00:54:02,138
[Riggle] Wow, this is intense!

1033
00:54:02,205 --> 00:54:04,838
[Rose] This is like
a regular Riggle barbecue, isn't it?

1034
00:54:04,905 --> 00:54:06,305
[Riggle] Much more intense.

1035
00:54:06,371 --> 00:54:08,671
Now I understand why
they have glass separating them!

1036
00:54:08,738 --> 00:54:13,505
There's going to be splashing, and food,
and things are flying around,

1037
00:54:13,571 --> 00:54:17,405
liquids and buns and water, intensity.

1038
00:54:17,471 --> 00:54:19,105
[Champion] What does it feel like for you?

1039
00:54:19,171 --> 00:54:22,005
With this live audience,
what does it feel like?

1040
00:54:22,071 --> 00:54:24,305
[Riggle] You can't cut the tension.
You just can't.

1041
00:54:24,371 --> 00:54:27,071
A machete, a chainsaw,
nothing is getting through it.

1042
00:54:27,138 --> 00:54:30,338
It's palpable.
The room is electric right now.

1043
00:54:30,405 --> 00:54:32,838
It is-- It was--
I felt it when I was on stage.

1044
00:54:32,905 --> 00:54:36,205
When the competitors came by,
you could feel them vibrating.

1045
00:54:36,271 --> 00:54:37,305
-You could feel it?
-Yes.

1046
00:54:37,371 --> 00:54:39,571
What about the haircut Kobayashi got?

1047
00:54:39,638 --> 00:54:44,271
When I saw that-- We just saw him
a day ago with a full mullet,

1048
00:54:44,338 --> 00:54:46,871
long hair, looking good,
rock star-ish-level hair.

1049
00:54:47,405 --> 00:54:51,071
And then he shaved it down.
The warrior is here.

1050
00:54:51,138 --> 00:54:55,305
[Rose] All right, look at this.
Joey Chestnut just surpassed it.

1051
00:54:55,371 --> 00:54:59,338
His best two-minute mark ever.
He is at 25 through two minutes.

1052
00:54:59,905 --> 00:55:02,738
[Janus] I'm not surprised.
These guys don't limit themselves.

1053
00:55:02,805 --> 00:55:05,638
They dream big
and they are able to achieve great things.

1054
00:55:05,705 --> 00:55:08,605
Nobody would have thought
this was possible except for these two.

1055
00:55:08,671 --> 00:55:13,205
[Rose] Kobayashi is down about three dogs,
two-plus minutes into this.

1056
00:55:13,271 --> 00:55:15,105
Bad sign, or can he make it up?

1057
00:55:15,171 --> 00:55:17,771
[Janus] It's not a great sign,
but he's not losing more ground.

1058
00:55:17,838 --> 00:55:19,538
At least he is holding steady now.

1059
00:55:21,205 --> 00:55:25,771
[Rose] Two and a half minutes into this
bout, 15 years in the making.

1060
00:55:25,838 --> 00:55:31,971
A six-time champion in Kobayashi,
a 16-time titleholder in Joey Chestnut.

1061
00:55:32,538 --> 00:55:33,405
What?

1062
00:55:33,471 --> 00:55:34,738
[audience cheering]

1063
00:55:34,805 --> 00:55:38,905
[Rose] Nikki Garcia is hanging out
with Kobayashi's wife in his corner.

1064
00:55:38,971 --> 00:55:41,438
-Maggie.
-[Garcia] Yes, I am here with Maggie.

1065
00:55:41,505 --> 00:55:43,038
It feels super tense.

1066
00:55:43,105 --> 00:55:48,271
There's already tears, a lot of prayers,
but I feel the hope. I truly do.

1067
00:55:48,338 --> 00:55:50,271
I think they know he has this.

1068
00:55:50,338 --> 00:55:53,771
But the emotions are unreal.
Back to you, guys.

1069
00:55:53,838 --> 00:55:55,038
[Champion] You can tell, Nikki.

1070
00:55:55,105 --> 00:55:58,438
I know Maggie told us she'd be
standing there encouraging him,

1071
00:55:58,505 --> 00:56:01,405
telling her husband where he is at,
where he is in the race,

1072
00:56:01,471 --> 00:56:02,671
to keep going, don't stop.

1073
00:56:02,738 --> 00:56:05,705
But she also said she'd tell him
to slow down and not hurt himself.

1074
00:56:05,771 --> 00:56:09,538
[Riggle] I'm sure there's only one voice
that Kobayashi can hear at that moment.

1075
00:56:09,605 --> 00:56:11,571
-The voice of his wife.
-[Champion] That's right.

1076
00:56:11,638 --> 00:56:15,071
[Riggle] So I hope that she is sending him
good vibes, giving him good information,

1077
00:56:15,138 --> 00:56:16,371
which I'm sure she is.

1078
00:56:16,438 --> 00:56:18,605
I can see the intensity right from here.
I can see--

1079
00:56:18,671 --> 00:56:20,505
She is praying. She's literally praying.

1080
00:56:20,571 --> 00:56:22,405
-[Champion] Wow, wow.
-[Riggle] So, you know,

1081
00:56:22,471 --> 00:56:25,205
the emotions are pure here and deep.

1082
00:56:26,205 --> 00:56:28,138
[Rose] Three and a half minutes into this.

1083
00:56:28,205 --> 00:56:32,771
All right. Chestnut seems to be extending
his lead a little bit over Kobayashi.

1084
00:56:32,838 --> 00:56:34,738
-What are you seeing?
-[Janus] Just a little bit.

1085
00:56:34,805 --> 00:56:37,238
Kobayashi told me yesterday
that his biggest fear,

1086
00:56:37,305 --> 00:56:40,138
what he fears most about Joey,
is Joey's pace.

1087
00:56:40,205 --> 00:56:41,571
Joey doesn't let up.

1088
00:56:41,638 --> 00:56:44,838
He continues to go at a fast pace
the entire contest,

1089
00:56:44,905 --> 00:56:46,905
and you're seeing that right now.

1090
00:56:46,971 --> 00:56:51,071
[Rose] This is the fastest four-minute
pace ever for Joey Chestnut.

1091
00:56:51,138 --> 00:56:55,371
His record, and really the world record
of 76, hangs in the balance.

1092
00:56:55,438 --> 00:56:57,538
-He can blow past that.
-I think he's going to.

1093
00:56:57,605 --> 00:56:59,938
[audience cheering]

1094
00:57:00,005 --> 00:57:04,071
It's incredible. These two have ingested
more than 20,000 calories combined.

1095
00:57:04,138 --> 00:57:07,571
-[Champion] You do that on a weekend.
-[Riggle] That's a good weekend for me.

1096
00:57:07,638 --> 00:57:10,638
If I'm back in Kansas City,
I'm eating barbecue, I'm about there.

1097
00:57:10,705 --> 00:57:12,605
I'm around 20,000 calories.

1098
00:57:12,671 --> 00:57:14,405
But I got to tell you,
I look at the numbers

1099
00:57:14,471 --> 00:57:16,405
and I forget that those
are actual hot dogs.

1100
00:57:16,471 --> 00:57:17,371
Not just numbers.

1101
00:57:17,438 --> 00:57:20,138
They've consumed those and those
are inside their bellies right now.

1102
00:57:20,205 --> 00:57:22,938
[Champion] The difference between
chicken wings and hot dogs is vast.

1103
00:57:23,005 --> 00:57:25,771
[Riggle] It's got to be.
With the bread? Oh, yeah, it's vast.

1104
00:57:25,838 --> 00:57:26,771
[Champion] Oh, yeah.

1105
00:57:26,838 --> 00:57:29,338
[Riggle] They have
a different technique out there.

1106
00:57:29,405 --> 00:57:31,771
Here, I mean, look,
it is slam and jam up there.

1107
00:57:31,838 --> 00:57:35,171
[Champion] Yes, and it's slam and jam.
Oh, my goodness.

1108
00:57:35,238 --> 00:57:37,438
[Rose] All right.
We are nearing the halfway point.

1109
00:57:37,505 --> 00:57:39,138
Joey Chestnut continues

1110
00:57:39,205 --> 00:57:42,305
to kind of incrementally
extend his lead right now.

1111
00:57:42,371 --> 00:57:45,671
You've got to imagine Kobayashi
can feel that he is behind.

1112
00:57:45,738 --> 00:57:48,138
What sort of adjustments
can you make in the back half?

1113
00:57:48,205 --> 00:57:50,638
[Janus] Uh, he knows. He knows
he is behind. I'm sure of that.

1114
00:57:50,705 --> 00:57:53,371
He's got his wife helping him out.
He can also see the counter.

1115
00:57:53,438 --> 00:57:56,005
All he can do is just keep pressing
that pace,

1116
00:57:56,071 --> 00:57:58,771
just trying to go a little bit faster
and trying not to slow down.

1117
00:57:58,838 --> 00:58:01,905
He is a smaller guy than Joey.
He's got a smaller rib cage.

1118
00:58:01,971 --> 00:58:05,238
Typically that means his stomach
doesn't have as much room to expand.

1119
00:58:05,305 --> 00:58:08,271
However, Kobayashi has a condition
called gastroptosis.

1120
00:58:08,338 --> 00:58:10,738
That means his stomach
sits a little bit lower in his body

1121
00:58:10,805 --> 00:58:13,271
and is able to expand underneath
the rib cage,

1122
00:58:13,338 --> 00:58:15,938
so that actually negates
Joey's size advantage.

1123
00:58:16,005 --> 00:58:19,071
[Champion] You said earlier you thought
that Joey would break the world record.

1124
00:58:19,138 --> 00:58:22,271
He's five dogs ahead of that pace
right now. So, what do you feel like?

1125
00:58:22,338 --> 00:58:25,405
[Janus] He's gonna continue. I think
he is in the best shape of his life.

1126
00:58:25,471 --> 00:58:29,305
I think he wants to win
but he also doesn't want to lose.

1127
00:58:29,371 --> 00:58:30,805
So he came here ready.

1128
00:58:30,871 --> 00:58:33,071
[Riggle] Both of the competitors
have their eyes shut.

1129
00:58:33,138 --> 00:58:35,105
Are they going out of body right now?

1130
00:58:35,171 --> 00:58:39,238
[Janus] You know, I think they are trying
to tune out as much as possible.

1131
00:58:39,305 --> 00:58:41,405
So it's a distraction
if you look around too much.

1132
00:58:41,471 --> 00:58:42,871
It's easier to close your eyes.

1133
00:58:42,938 --> 00:58:48,071
[Rose] And look at this. Chestnut almost
has a 10 hotdog lead over Kobayashi

1134
00:58:48,138 --> 00:58:50,171
as we close in on the four-minute mark.

1135
00:58:50,238 --> 00:58:53,438
This is an incredible performance
by a 16-time champ.

1136
00:58:53,505 --> 00:58:56,271
[Janus] This is a bigger lead
than I expected, you know.

1137
00:58:56,338 --> 00:58:59,238
One thing Joey told me was that
he was going to push himself

1138
00:58:59,305 --> 00:59:01,971
even if he's got a big lead.
He's going to try to set a record.

1139
00:59:02,038 --> 00:59:03,238
Kobayashi told me the same.

1140
00:59:03,305 --> 00:59:05,505
Even if he's losing,
he's going to try to do his best

1141
00:59:05,571 --> 00:59:07,671
because he's got his pride wrapped up
in this event.

1142
00:59:07,738 --> 00:59:10,405
-They're gonna push hard to the end.
-[Rose] Let's take it to Nikki.

1143
00:59:10,471 --> 00:59:13,071
She is in Joey Chestnut's camp
right now. Nikki.

1144
00:59:13,138 --> 00:59:16,705
That is right. I'm here with Joey's dad,
Joey's friends,

1145
00:59:16,771 --> 00:59:18,671
these other competitive eaters.

1146
00:59:18,738 --> 00:59:22,805
And even though Joey has the lead,
they are cheering him on.

1147
00:59:22,871 --> 00:59:26,405
They are not giving up.
It is so crazy down here.

1148
00:59:26,471 --> 00:59:27,771
I mean, the hype is unreal.

1149
00:59:29,171 --> 00:59:31,005
[Rose] All right, Nikki,
thank you very much.

1150
00:59:31,071 --> 00:59:35,171
You can see the-- Is that pain
that Joey Chestnut is going through

1151
00:59:35,238 --> 00:59:37,605
as he's trying to jab more
and more hot dogs?

1152
00:59:37,671 --> 00:59:40,038
-Let's call it what it is.
-[Janus] It's not actually pain.

1153
00:59:40,105 --> 00:59:42,371
It is kind of disgust at this point.

1154
00:59:42,438 --> 00:59:44,871
But there's nothing that hurts.
They just feel full.

1155
00:59:44,938 --> 00:59:47,938
They know their stomach can stretch
further, so they're gonna keep on eating,

1156
00:59:48,005 --> 00:59:50,071
but it doesn't feel great.
It doesn't taste good.

1157
00:59:50,138 --> 00:59:51,505
Tim, how are these dogs going down?

1158
00:59:51,571 --> 00:59:53,638
You talked about the difference
between slow and fast.

1159
00:59:53,705 --> 00:59:54,905
What are we looking at?

1160
00:59:54,971 --> 00:59:58,671
[Janus] Typically, when you can't dunk,
it should be much slower to eat a hot dog,

1161
00:59:58,738 --> 01:00:03,138
but these guys have practiced so much,
and the meat is soft, it's hot, juicy,

1162
01:00:03,205 --> 01:00:05,671
there's no casing on it.
That makes it a fast meat.

1163
01:00:05,738 --> 01:00:07,938
The bun has been kept
at a nice temperature,

1164
01:00:08,005 --> 01:00:10,005
it's been steamed,
so it is fluffy and soft.

1165
01:00:10,071 --> 01:00:12,971
That makes it a fast bun.
They can eat these dogs quickly.

1166
01:00:13,038 --> 01:00:14,905
[Rose] Rob, when you shop
at the grocery store,

1167
01:00:14,971 --> 01:00:17,071
do you shop for fast dogs, slow dogs?

1168
01:00:17,138 --> 01:00:19,305
-Which ones?
-[Riggle] The fast ones.

1169
01:00:19,371 --> 01:00:22,105
Yeah. I'm all about speed.
That's how I live my life.

1170
01:00:22,171 --> 01:00:23,671
-But you knew that.
-[Rose] That's true.

1171
01:00:24,271 --> 01:00:27,605
Six dogs ahead of his world record pace
is Joey Chestnut

1172
01:00:27,671 --> 01:00:31,738
as he just climbed past 70
with under two and a half minutes to go.

1173
01:00:31,805 --> 01:00:33,805
[Riggle] I think the record's gonna fall.

1174
01:00:33,871 --> 01:00:36,238
[Rose] What would that mean
in the competitive eating world

1175
01:00:36,305 --> 01:00:37,605
if he blows past 80?

1176
01:00:37,671 --> 01:00:40,405
-What are we looking at?
-[Janus] Joey has always wanted to hit 80.

1177
01:00:40,471 --> 01:00:41,738
I think we are about to see it.

1178
01:00:41,805 --> 01:00:44,705
And that's the biggest number anybody
has ever eaten.

1179
01:00:44,771 --> 01:00:48,871
We are really approaching the limits
of what a human can do.

1180
01:00:48,938 --> 01:00:52,571
[Champion] What is interesting, we haven't
seen one penalty card, one warning card.

1181
01:00:52,638 --> 01:00:55,105
They stay focused and locked in.
What does that tell you?

1182
01:00:55,171 --> 01:00:58,538
[Janus] Well, the biggest concern was
they are so used to dunking hot dogs,

1183
01:00:58,605 --> 01:01:01,738
they've been doing it for decades,
that they might just accidentally do it.

1184
01:01:01,805 --> 01:01:03,338
But I expected a clean contest.

1185
01:01:03,405 --> 01:01:05,905
I think they practiced enough
and they both want to win this.

1186
01:01:05,971 --> 01:01:07,571
They both wanna compete fairly.

1187
01:01:07,638 --> 01:01:09,271
[Rose]
We are under the two-minute warning.

1188
01:01:09,338 --> 01:01:13,905
Unlike the NFL… You can see two games
right here on Netflix on Christmas Day.

1189
01:01:13,971 --> 01:01:18,105
…we don't stop the action. We keep going.
We keep pushing through.

1190
01:01:18,171 --> 01:01:21,205
We are closing in
on Joey Chestnut's record.

1191
01:01:21,771 --> 01:01:25,838
Remember, the number to tie is 76,
with 90 seconds to go.

1192
01:01:25,905 --> 01:01:27,671
He is one away.

1193
01:01:27,738 --> 01:01:28,805
[Janus] This is incredible.

1194
01:01:28,871 --> 01:01:31,205
-[audience cheering]
-[Riggle] Oh, my God!

1195
01:01:31,271 --> 01:01:34,571
[Rose] Joey Chestnut, he might have
a pained look on his face,

1196
01:01:34,638 --> 01:01:38,271
but he is all smiles and hot dogs
on the inside.

1197
01:01:38,338 --> 01:01:40,271
He has equaled his record.

1198
01:01:40,338 --> 01:01:44,271
One more, and he is once again
at the top of the dog mountain.

1199
01:01:44,338 --> 01:01:46,805
He's going to 78. He's got it in his hand.

1200
01:01:48,405 --> 01:01:51,005
[Riggle] We are in uncharted waters here!

1201
01:01:51,071 --> 01:01:53,171
[Rose] How far can he go?

1202
01:01:53,238 --> 01:01:56,038
What is he thinking about now, 82, 83?

1203
01:01:56,105 --> 01:01:57,771
[Janus] He's thinking about
the record first

1204
01:01:57,838 --> 01:02:00,505
and then he's just going to go
as much beyond that as he can.

1205
01:02:00,571 --> 01:02:02,305
And he can stuff a little bit more.

1206
01:02:02,371 --> 01:02:05,238
[Rose] Let's not lose sight of the fact
that Kobi is about to set

1207
01:02:05,305 --> 01:02:06,705
a personal record as well.

1208
01:02:06,771 --> 01:02:11,071
His old mark's at 64 and a half
back in 2009.

1209
01:02:12,171 --> 01:02:14,638
[Champion] We now have less
than a minute left. What do you see?

1210
01:02:14,705 --> 01:02:16,938
We got less than a minute left.
Give us a guess.

1211
01:02:17,005 --> 01:02:19,405
-[Janus] Joey is going to hit 84.
-[Champion] Eighty-four?

1212
01:02:19,471 --> 01:02:20,805
[Rose] Joey just hit 80!

1213
01:02:20,871 --> 01:02:23,471
[Champion] Oh, my goodness!

1214
01:02:23,538 --> 01:02:25,071
[audience cheering]

1215
01:02:25,138 --> 01:02:27,105
[Rose] Less than 30 to go!

1216
01:02:27,771 --> 01:02:31,905
-A rematch we have waited 15 years for.
-[Riggle] Kobi has set a personal record.

1217
01:02:33,305 --> 01:02:37,505
[Rose] Chestnut, Kobayashi,
both with personal records,

1218
01:02:37,571 --> 01:02:42,605
but the 16-time champion is going
to walk away an apparent winner.

1219
01:02:42,671 --> 01:02:44,205
[audience cheering]

1220
01:02:44,271 --> 01:02:47,638
There's 10 seconds to go
as the fans count it down.

1221
01:02:47,705 --> 01:02:52,671
-…six, five, four, three, two, one!
-Three, two, one!

1222
01:02:53,171 --> 01:02:55,238
[Riggle] Tim called this! He called this.

1223
01:02:56,338 --> 01:02:58,171
You have 30 seconds to finish…

1224
01:02:58,238 --> 01:03:01,371
[Rose] You have 30 seconds
to finish what is in your mouth,

1225
01:03:01,905 --> 01:03:04,705
and then both competitors
will get checked.

1226
01:03:04,771 --> 01:03:07,938
They'll sweep up for any mess
that's on the floor.

1227
01:03:08,005 --> 01:03:11,238
They'll weigh that.
But this is an apparent, as of right now,

1228
01:03:11,305 --> 01:03:15,705
unofficial win for Joey Chestnut
who went going away.

1229
01:03:15,771 --> 01:03:19,505
[Janus] And it's impossible that it won't
be official in just a few seconds.

1230
01:03:19,571 --> 01:03:23,538
[Champion] Tim, you were close.
You said 84. He got 83.

1231
01:03:23,605 --> 01:03:25,438
-You were close.
-[Janus] I was close, yeah.

1232
01:03:25,505 --> 01:03:27,305
-That was his personal best.
-[Rose] All right.

1233
01:03:27,938 --> 01:03:30,871
So both competitors are having
their mouths checked out.

1234
01:03:30,938 --> 01:03:33,505
It'll take a little longer
to check Joey's mouth.

1235
01:03:33,571 --> 01:03:37,105
That is a large grill.
That is a large grill. Look at him!

1236
01:03:37,171 --> 01:03:39,905
[audience cheering]

1237
01:03:39,971 --> 01:03:41,738
[Rose] Soaking in the moment.

1238
01:03:45,438 --> 01:03:46,538
[Janus] Incredible.

1239
01:03:46,605 --> 01:03:49,071
[Rose] Once again,
this is an unofficial victory.

1240
01:03:50,705 --> 01:03:55,671
The competitors standing next to one
another, but not even exchanging glances.

1241
01:03:55,738 --> 01:03:59,871
[Janus] You know,
these guys make each other better.

1242
01:03:59,938 --> 01:04:01,938
[Rose] Well, what are they doing here now?

1243
01:04:02,005 --> 01:04:04,905
[Janus] Well, we've had guys in the past
that might step on some crumbs.

1244
01:04:04,971 --> 01:04:08,371
These guys would never stoop that low,
but they're checking to make sure.

1245
01:04:08,438 --> 01:04:10,938
[Rose] Would they cheat to try
and put stuff under their shoes?

1246
01:04:11,005 --> 01:04:13,138
[Janus] There's been scandals in the past.

1247
01:04:13,205 --> 01:04:16,338
[audience chanting]
Joey! Joey! Joey! Joey!

1248
01:04:16,405 --> 01:04:19,871
[Rose] Wow. How exhausted are you
at the end of 10 minutes?

1249
01:04:19,938 --> 01:04:21,838
[Janus]
Uh, you've got a lot of adrenaline.

1250
01:04:21,905 --> 01:04:24,038
That keeps you going.
I think they feel pretty good.

1251
01:04:25,271 --> 01:04:30,005
[Rose] It was an incredible performance.
Joey Chestnut, the unofficial winner.

1252
01:04:30,071 --> 01:04:33,838
Kobayashi, we finally saw him
compete against Joey Chestnut

1253
01:04:33,905 --> 01:04:35,871
for the first time in 15 years.

1254
01:04:35,938 --> 01:04:39,238
[Champion] It was truly worth the wait.
Would you not say?

1255
01:04:39,305 --> 01:04:41,871
[Janus] I would wait again
to get this kind of excitement. Yeah.

1256
01:04:41,938 --> 01:04:44,671
-[Champion] It was very good.
-[Rose] It was something special.

1257
01:04:44,738 --> 01:04:47,438
They're just doing a few quick
check to the numbers.

1258
01:04:47,505 --> 01:04:49,138
Then we will have an official ruling.

1259
01:04:49,205 --> 01:04:51,938
But both gentlemen,
they look exhausted at this point.

1260
01:04:52,005 --> 01:04:53,871
[Janus] They do, and they look very wet.

1261
01:04:55,005 --> 01:04:55,871
A lot of water.

1262
01:04:57,438 --> 01:05:00,871
[Rose] Well, the crowd here in Las Vegas
treated to something special.

1263
01:05:00,938 --> 01:05:03,671
We had the chicken wing eating
a little bit earlier,

1264
01:05:03,738 --> 01:05:07,738
we had Leah set a new Guinness
world record for the watermelon eating,

1265
01:05:07,805 --> 01:05:10,305
and now we have another unofficial record

1266
01:05:10,371 --> 01:05:12,571
when it comes to hot dog eating
in 10 minutes.

1267
01:05:12,638 --> 01:05:13,905
[Champion] It was so intense.

1268
01:05:13,971 --> 01:05:15,971
[audience cheering]

1269
01:05:18,305 --> 01:05:21,838
[Champion] They're weighing what they were
able to find there, in terms of grams.

1270
01:05:21,905 --> 01:05:24,938
They take that away from the actual score
to see who had what?

1271
01:05:26,171 --> 01:05:29,738
[Janus] If it equals a hot dog in terms
of mass, then they will deduct it,

1272
01:05:29,805 --> 01:05:32,305
but if it doesn't equal a full hot dog,
it doesn't count.

1273
01:05:32,371 --> 01:05:37,905
[Rose] It's just to cross the Ts and dot
your Is and get everything official.

1274
01:05:37,971 --> 01:05:41,071
[Champion] It's all official.
We're making sure it's all said and done.

1275
01:05:41,805 --> 01:05:44,671
I'm beat after 10 minutes. What about you?

1276
01:05:44,738 --> 01:05:46,138
-I'm tired.
-[Janus] Oh, I'm excited.

1277
01:05:46,205 --> 01:05:47,238
[Champion chuckles]

1278
01:05:47,305 --> 01:05:50,671
[Rose] I wonder how far Joey Chestnut
can push himself.

1279
01:05:50,738 --> 01:05:56,971
I mean, where he got almost to 85,
that is an unreal number.

1280
01:05:57,038 --> 01:05:58,205
[Janus] He's a big dreamer.

1281
01:05:58,271 --> 01:06:00,738
I'm sure he's already starting
to think about the next one.

1282
01:06:00,805 --> 01:06:04,205
[Rose] Kobayashi apparently
deducted one dog total

1283
01:06:04,271 --> 01:06:06,171
after they weighed everything in.

1284
01:06:06,838 --> 01:06:10,505
Perhaps that will extend the win
for one Joey Chestnut.

1285
01:06:11,238 --> 01:06:13,305
All right, Rob Riggle, take it away.

1286
01:06:13,371 --> 01:06:15,371
[audience cheering]

1287
01:06:16,171 --> 01:06:19,038
Well, I believe it is official.
We have a winner.

1288
01:06:20,571 --> 01:06:25,705
The judges have determined,
by unanimous decision,

1289
01:06:25,771 --> 01:06:30,838
with a total score of 83 hot dogs eaten…

1290
01:06:30,905 --> 01:06:32,905
[audience cheering]

1291
01:06:34,338 --> 01:06:39,805
…the winner of the first ever Netflix
Unfinished Beef Hot Dog competition

1292
01:06:39,871 --> 01:06:43,305
and new world record holder,

1293
01:06:43,371 --> 01:06:47,938
it's Joey Chestnut!

1294
01:06:48,005 --> 01:06:50,638
[audience cheering]

1295
01:06:50,705 --> 01:06:54,238
-Congratulations.
-Congratulations.

1296
01:06:58,005 --> 01:07:02,471
I'm telling you, your mouth and stomach
have spoken here today.

1297
01:07:03,371 --> 01:07:07,438
You are the greatest hot dog eater
in the entire world.

1298
01:07:07,505 --> 01:07:13,505
Yes. And on top of that,
you have won $100,000.

1299
01:07:14,471 --> 01:07:17,805
And of course this incredible
one-of-a-kind trophy.

1300
01:07:19,905 --> 01:07:22,171
That's right, but that is not all.
That is not all.

1301
01:07:22,238 --> 01:07:25,505
Here to present our winner
with the championship belt

1302
01:07:25,571 --> 01:07:29,738
is WWE superstar, Rey Mysterio!

1303
01:07:29,805 --> 01:07:30,638
[audience cheering]

1304
01:07:30,705 --> 01:07:32,105
[Riggle] Mysterio!

1305
01:07:35,538 --> 01:07:36,838
[audience cheering]

1306
01:07:40,338 --> 01:07:43,805
[Riggle] That's right. That's right.
Joey Chestnut will be taking home

1307
01:07:43,871 --> 01:07:47,938
the Netflix Unfinished Beef
Hot Dog championship title belt.

1308
01:07:48,005 --> 01:07:52,005
And of course he will need
to loosen that belt almost immediately,

1309
01:07:52,071 --> 01:07:54,771
because he ate too many hot dogs,
my friends.

1310
01:07:54,838 --> 01:07:56,605
Too many hot dogs.

1311
01:07:56,671 --> 01:08:01,471
Let me just ask you, Joey.
What is going through your mind right now?

1312
01:08:01,538 --> 01:08:06,205
Besides-- There's a tremendous
waft of sweat and hot dog

1313
01:08:06,271 --> 01:08:09,405
that you can't smell it at home,
but it's tremendous.

1314
01:08:09,471 --> 01:08:14,138
The meat sweats are real, brother.
No, dude, it's amazing.

1315
01:08:14,205 --> 01:08:16,438
I've been trying to hit 80 hot dogs
for years,

1316
01:08:16,505 --> 01:08:19,305
and without Kobayashi,
I was never able to do it.

1317
01:08:19,371 --> 01:08:20,305
And, uh…

1318
01:08:20,371 --> 01:08:21,638
[audience cheering]

1319
01:08:21,705 --> 01:08:23,305
He drives me.

1320
01:08:23,371 --> 01:08:26,971
And we weren't always nice to each other,

1321
01:08:27,038 --> 01:08:30,404
but I love the way we push each other
to be our best.

1322
01:08:30,471 --> 01:08:33,638
That's great. That's awesome.
Iron sharpens iron.

1323
01:08:33,705 --> 01:08:35,871
How about you, Kobi,
how are you feeling right now?

1324
01:08:35,938 --> 01:08:38,838
[speaking Japanese]

1325
01:08:38,904 --> 01:08:42,338
-I feel like I did everything I could.
-And you most certainly did.

1326
01:08:42,404 --> 01:08:45,571
And you had an incredible group here
supporting you.

1327
01:08:46,138 --> 01:08:48,271
What you do is absolutely amazing,

1328
01:08:48,338 --> 01:08:51,971
and you made today so incredibly special,
so thank you so much.

1329
01:08:54,838 --> 01:08:55,705
Joey…

1330
01:08:57,571 --> 01:09:00,171
Uh, real quick, before we get out of here,

1331
01:09:00,238 --> 01:09:02,805
the world wants to know,
any last thoughts you've got?

1332
01:09:02,871 --> 01:09:06,471
Any thoughts on breaking the title,
breaking the record, your personal best?

1333
01:09:06,538 --> 01:09:09,271
-Any last thoughts before we part ways?
-Oh, my God. Dude.

1334
01:09:09,338 --> 01:09:12,371
When I first heard the rules about
no dunking, I was really worried.

1335
01:09:12,438 --> 01:09:14,571
But I learned how to eat them like this.

1336
01:09:14,638 --> 01:09:17,105
And any other hot dog contest I do,

1337
01:09:17,171 --> 01:09:20,171
I'm gonna be eating some of them
without dunking. This was amazing.

1338
01:09:20,238 --> 01:09:22,371
-That's great. That's great.
-[audience cheering]

1339
01:09:22,438 --> 01:09:26,305
-All right, did you all have a good time?
-Yeah!

1340
01:09:26,371 --> 01:09:27,404
Let's hear it!

1341
01:09:27,471 --> 01:09:29,371
[audience cheering]

1342
01:09:29,438 --> 01:09:32,038
They're loving it. All right.
Thank you, everyone.

1343
01:09:32,105 --> 01:09:35,205
Thank you so much to our athletes
for participating today.

1344
01:09:35,271 --> 01:09:37,038
That's right. Thanks for coming out today.

1345
01:09:37,105 --> 01:09:40,538
I don't know about you guys,
but after watching all of this,

1346
01:09:40,605 --> 01:09:43,305
I want to go out and eat a salad!

1347
01:09:43,371 --> 01:09:44,571
[Garcia] Yeah.

1348
01:09:44,638 --> 01:09:48,871
On behalf of Cari Champion,
Chris Rose, Tim, Nikki, myself,

1349
01:09:48,938 --> 01:09:52,371
all the wonderful people who came out here
to cheer on our eaters,

1350
01:09:52,438 --> 01:09:55,404
to the crew who made all this happen…

1351
01:09:56,138 --> 01:09:57,505
Good morning, good night.

1352
01:09:57,571 --> 01:10:00,205
I don't know where you are,
but I hope it's a great day.

1353
01:10:00,271 --> 01:10:03,071
Yes, and have a happy Labor Day. Be safe.

1354
01:10:03,138 --> 01:10:04,805
[audience cheering]

1355
01:10:04,871 --> 01:10:06,871

1356
01:10:23,071 --> 01:10:25,071

1357

Joey! Joey! Joey! Joey!

1358
