Joey Chestnut Eats Entire Cast Of ‘Stranger Things’ In Under 10 Minutes
LAS VEGAS—In a triumphant victory over longtime rival Takeru Kobayashi during a live-streamed Netflix special, competitive eater Joey Chestnut reportedly ate the entire cast of Stranger Things in under 10 minutes Thursday. “There were times in there when I didn’t know if I’d be able to choke down another one of those kids, but I just kept drenching them in water and sucking down as many of them as I could,” Chestnut said in a post-competition interview for the special, entitled Chestnut vs. Stranger Things: The Final Chow-Down, in which he credited years of training for his ability to eat 83 cast members and extras from the science-fiction series, including Maya Hawke, Finn Wolfhard, and Millie Bobby Brown. “The rules make it so their clothes have to stay on, which takes up a ton of space in your stomach. There’s also all the gristle you have to spit out. But when I saw Kobayashi sliding David Harbour down his throat without even chewing, I knew I needed to keep pushing. Obviously, we’ve had our differences, but Takeru really inspires me to get better, y’know?” The special ended with confetti showering down on Chestnut as officials certified that he had broken his own 2020 record for eating the entire cast of Outer Banks.
