to the Day theme is eating records. Great, and I

(00:21):
thought we'd start with the what is believed to be
the world's largest meal ever consumed. Okay, wow, wise, wells
get this book of records. This is not one you
can apply to beat anymore because it's somehow because it's
bad for you, us, the person who holds the record diet. Wow. Okay.

(00:42):
So it was in nineteen eighty four that nineteen eighty three,
I do apologize. Eight am. It was a Sunday. A
twenty three year old woman arrived at A and e
at the Royal Liverpool Hospital complaining of abdominal pain. Her
bally button had popped out, like you'd expect to see
during pregnancy. The vales and stade out, and she was
finding it difficult to breathe. Nurses began questioning her and

(01:04):
she said, I did have a late dinner between midnight
and four am, And anyway, a little while later she
passed away. Oh goodness, the body was just it just
couldn't handle it, couldn't hack it, couldn't handle it. In
a post mortem, it was confirmed that the contents of

(01:24):
her stomach weighed eight point six kilograms. Oh my god,
this as much as your statue here white, This is
twice the size of a baby. Oh my god, eight
point six kilograms. It was published in a medical journal.
They said, what was it. I've got it. Oh, thank
you got her. Gigantic meal comprised of four hundred and
fifty grams of liver less though maybe she's on the games.

(01:51):
Nine hundred grams of kidneys why is she on the
office on the awful between midnight and four o'clock? As well?
Two hundred and twenty six grams of steak, which is
a small steak for someone who just polished off you know,
part of one and a half kgs of off l
two eggs, oh yeah, five hundred grams of cheese. Oh yeah, yeah,

(02:15):
that's half bloss. That's half a kg block. She's keto
as well, you know. Dah, Here we go, bring in
the carps. Two large slices of bread, okay, four hundred
and fifty grams of mushrooms, nine hundred grams of do
you know how light mushrooms are. Then wait, now, four
hundred and fifty grams a mountain of mushrooms, nine hundred

(02:37):
and seven grams of carrot, one cauliflower? Could do you think?
While she was doing this, she's like, I better have
some gees. Yeah, very hungry caterpillar, very hungry, very hungry caterpillar.
One collar fat, ten peaches, because she's like, oh, I
could do it some, but I'm trying to well, I
might eat some fruit. I want something sweet, but I
don't want anything candy. Ten peaches, four piers, two apples,

(03:01):
four bananas, nine hundred grams of plums, nine hundred grams
of grapes, and two glasses of milk. Geez, it's the
milk that did it. And this isn't one meal between
midnight and four or is this was in her late
meal between midnight and four? Who cooked it? How might

(03:23):
she do that? I don't know. It is considered and
they stopped, obviously because to beat this record you would
have to do something horrendously endangering to yourself. Yeah, because
she did die directly as a result of just moving
every whole everything was just like everything shout down there.
Just stop shout it. It becomes a point when you
eat it's too much where you just can't what was

(03:44):
she doing? And she must have had that thing that
golden retrievers have sciation. Yeah, did they say how much
you weant? Because you know a lot of those people
that do the eating competitions are like tiny people. There's
no word on I don't have a name or anything.
It's kind of a an official record, but they say

(04:04):
they don't do it anymore. Even competitive eaters though, distanced
themselves from them trying to eat a bigger meal than
that because eight point six I don't even know how
to describe. They describe it in this article as heavier
than the heaviest bowling ball. You'll find it a bowling alley.
Just shoving it in here, Yeah, just eating it in
that form of all again liver, kidneys, yahteak, eggs, cheese, bread, mushrooms, carrots, coliflower, peaches, pears, apples,

(04:30):
but his plums, grapes and two glasses of milk. That
sounds like she had a fruit salad at the end.
It's the largest for its clad on record. Yeah, that
the largest for its salad. So today's fact to today
is a Guinness Word record for the largest meal, the
heaviest meal ever eating may never be beaten, as they
do not want to hear about it because the person
that ate eight point six kilograms and four hours died
