Bloke in our office is undertaking a Christmas McChallenge, after some foolish drunken bragging in the pub a few weeks ago. 
He's aimimg to eat 100 McDonald's Chicken McNuggets in two hours. The donation to charity doubles if he does it within one hour. He's not allowed to barf at any point. He can have unlimited amounts of beverages and dips.
The current black market is 76-78 for two hours. What do you reckon? I'm saying it can't be done, personally.

I can polish off a 20-box in a few mins as long as it comes with a drink and plenty of BBQ sauce as otherwise they tend to be a tad dry.
Problem hes got is as they get colder the harder to eat they get.

Oh we have a list of the ingredients, don't worry! "Chicken", however McDonald's define it, is the least of his worries!! Amongst other things, there's some anti-foaming (?!) chemical in them which was considered toxic to humans until 1968...

I reckon he'll do it- but I'm no expert on McDonalds cusine. If he starves himself a bit beforehand and is a glutton I can't see 100 nuggets being a problem, he can binge then rest, then binge.
I take it he is not allowed to vomit them back up during the contest.

Yep, as mentioned, he's not allowed to barf at any point.
I've done 40 nuggets before, and that was beginning to become a struggle at the end, although i hadn't starved myself to any extent beforehand.

starving yourself wont do any good though, as your stomach will start to shrink (i think) .. what he wants to do is keep it stretched ...train his stomach. Saw this programme about people who do eating contests , one guy ate a couple of lbs of grapes the night before to stretch his stomach ... a handy hint

Is he allowed to barf say three minutes after completion? I think you need to fix a rule there.
And make sure he doesn't cheat by shoving the last seven in his mouth but not swallowing...

We have a board of budding referees on here! 
Yes Brendan, all considered. He can do *anything* after the two hours is up, but not before. And yes, he must have swallowed them, no "hamstering" allowed.
The market has moved, by the way. A flurry of sellers has left it 71-73.

tell him to keep the momentum going.... there is a delay in the release of hormones that act to make the body feel full. The more he can get down before that happens the better!

Yep, that's the tactic he's employing ajm.
Small ripple of applause here as he passes the 50 mark. He's definitely slowing, says it's getting difficult to swallow, which is a bit of a worry!!
"Hamstering", hmmm, not sure, at least he's not "cottaging"..!!

No Tel,
But I reckon he'll be spending a bit of time in the cottager's favourite location in the next few hours - for different reasons though
tiggers.
