66 POUND SEAFOOD BOAT CHALLENGE (World Record Attempt!)

Today, you are about to witness history. Since the beginning of time, mankind has tried to conquer food, mostly through YouTube challenge videos. But today, I will attempt a challenge so huge, it has not been taken on by any woman or man in history. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the 30-kilogram seafood boat challenge. Myself and a small team of four will have 30 minutes to eat 66 pounds of seafood, ranging from lobster to king crab, and everything in between. If I am successful, I will win $1,000. And if I fail, I will be lambasted and ridiculed for eternity through YouTube comments on the internet. The challenge is about to begin. But first, I'd like to talk about how we got here. Even among all of Vietnam's delicious seafood, shrimpies, spiny lobsters, and snails, one intrepid restaurant is taking seafood to a whole new level. Welcome back to Sky Garden. Last time I was here, Andrew and I took down a mammoth seven-pound lobster cooked five ways. This is the best moment of my life. Oh, my God. This time, I'm coming back for more. For this challenge, I will assemble an army of eaters, starting with a ferocious, deep-stomached ally. Not you. Tao. Are you ready? Yeah, I'm ready. Tao, what is the most, for example, spring rolls you've ever eaten at one time? How many kilograms do you think that is? Yeah. Today, I need you to actually eat, like, five kilograms of meat. It's 30 kilograms total. I'll eat 10 kilograms, and each of the team members eats five. Between the five of us, if we can take down 30 kilograms, or 66 pounds, of seafood, we get $1,000. This is no joke. For me, I'm going to buy new eyebrows, because I don't know what happened to mine, but they're not there anymore. I don't know. Can you guys see them? I don't... Is this male-patterned eyebrow baldness? It doesn't make sense to me. Have you ever had king crab? No, not yet. How big is it? I don't know. Should we go find out? Okay. We are going to meet the rest of the team later, but for now, let's go meet our meal. We are headed to the aquarium now to pick out our food. Let's go. Let's do this. We have lobster. We have king crab. If we want to enjoy this meal today, we have to kind of earn it by catching our own food. Oh, wow. Have you ever caught a lobster? Yeah, I... Not really. Yeah, I can. But you think you can? Yeah. I like that confidence. I'm going to go first. The king of all... Oh. Do you see these claws? Hey, quick, quick talk. The lobster has rubber bands around its claws. The crab does not have rubber bands around its claws. I'm not... Okay, I'm going to grab it by the butt. I'm going to grab it by the butt. Oh, my God. Oh, no. He's trying to pinch me. Oh, Sunny, the aquarium pro, coming at you. Bam. Let's put it on the scale. Let's see. Just to put it in perspective, that's 2.5 kilograms. After we eat this, we still have 27.5 remaining. Could just you eat this? Because I need you to eat 5 kilograms of food. I will try my best. Oh, there you go. Bye, crab. We are making the world's biggest seafood boat. I need you to catch a lobster. Wait, why are you so good at this? Oh, wow. Is that one... Why that was... Why was that so easy for you? Let's check the final number. 1.8 kilograms. So together, this lobster and that crab, 4.3 kilograms. You would need to eat a whole king crab and a whole lobster. Are you feeling hungry? Just a little bit. Perfect. Cooking is underway for our Titanic Seafood Boat Challenge. Today's menu will include one Alaskan king crab, one large Canadian lobster, ten smaller lobsters, snow crab legs, Vietnamese sea crabs, oysters, mussels, scallops, octopus, squid, and shrimpies. But while that's underway, let's meet the rest of the team. I'm gonna be honest. You all looked a lot bigger in your application photos. Vy has joined me on many of my eating escapades throughout Vietnam. Vy, have you ever eaten lobster? Really? Yeah. That's really special because you're gonna have to eat as much lobster as you can in seven and a half minutes. That'll be really enjoyable, I think, yes? I guess so. What is your strategy for today? Maybe one kilogram in three minutes. I gotta be honest. That's not good enough. I will eat ten kilograms, and you all eat five kilograms each. Yeah, I can do that. Okay, perfect. What is the most food you've ever eaten? Rice. Well, maybe she had like 2,000 pieces of rice. You need to have a cool, dangerous name that's like the bottomless pit. Oh, that's my name. Sunny, the bottomless pit. Go. Bing bong. Good. I'm gonna be the grandmother lobster. Grandmother lobster. Seafood killer. All right. I just go with yum yum because I can eat anything. They are still underway preparing all this food, but we'll be starting very shortly. Stay tuned. Even if there's a commercial that plays right now, watch all of that and come back to watch this show too. Cooking continues in the kitchen where it'll take over two hours to prepare this mountain of seafood. Steaming is the primary method of preparation, and these mouth-watering creatures of the sea will be paired with salt, pepper, lime sauce, the Chang green pepper sauce, and my personal favorite, a huge bowl of straight-up melted butter. Since the owner of Sky Garden has allowed me a support team, he's also implemented an anti-support team, the Food Bro. When I see a poser like Sunny come out here and think he's got 66 pounds of seafood, he's wasting it. There are better people for this job. Discovery Channel, what's up? You might remember my food-reviewing arch-nemesis, the Food Bro, from our numerous run-ins on my channel. You're doing a food review for food that doesn't even belong to this restaurant. You're just in a random restaurant. That makes a lot of sense. And today, he's here to discourage me from completing this challenge. Also, he's a dick. Sunny cannot do this. Anyone who tries to coordinate their shirt and headband colors, their head's not in the game, though. He does not have the stomach for this. He's gonna have a lot of leftovers is what he's gonna have. Finally, with everything steamed and ready to eat, it's piled onto a boat and carried into the dining room for a weigh-in. The moment of truth is here. Our food is prepared, but we need to know officially if it is actually enough weight. We can't break world records just saying, ah, it looks like 30 kilograms. Do you know what I'm saying? Just the boat alone right now, it is coming in 8 kilograms. We have our full seafood boat now, and they're gonna swing around, and they're gonna put it on the scale. Careful. What if it's not 30 kilograms? It's only 22 kilograms. Put more seafood? Do you want to come over here? Yeah, what should we do? What seafood do you want to put in here? Lobster, we can do crab. We can do another couple crabs. Okay, no problem. Even more seafood, including another king crab, is piled on, ensuring we hit our world record-breaking number of 66 pounds. We have added even more seafood to our boat. We're gonna weigh it again right now. Let's see what it's clocking in at. It is, oh, 38, baby. 38 minus 8 pounds for a box of wood, and we've got 30 kilograms of seafood. That's a ridiculous amount of food. I'm gonna eat 10 kilograms myself, and here's the trick. You guys are probably thinking this is impossible. I don't have to eat the shells. I only need to eat like a pound of food. This is gonna be impossible, isn't it? The time has finally arrived. When the timer begins, we will have 30 minutes to take down this seafood feast. Bing bong, grandma lobster, seafood killer, and yum yum will have 7.5 minutes each, then switch off. I will be here the entire 30 minutes. It's time for this history-making event to begin. That guy. We have the remaining team members right here. We are all ready to kick some butt. We're gonna begin. 3, 2, 1, let's go. Uh, go, go, go, go. Scissors, thank you. I don't know, I think I got a squid. Oh, god. Come on, let's go, let's go, let's go. Oh, that squid was delicious in this, just, I have a giant bowl of melted butter here. See, he's getting buttery and salty, just like when he gets nervous. There's a lot of food left, I'm gonna be honest. We're not even close. Sonny hasn't seen this many crabs since spring break, am I right? You said you never had king crab before? Yeah. There's two of them here. I wanna try it. Oh, my god. I think you just open the head like a... Yeah, pull the head, oh, wow. Oh, there's a lot of stuff in there. Look at this crab meat. Oh, my god. I promise I'm trying to rush, but it actually tastes amazing. Yeah, no, you go for it. Eat it. Now, can you eat, like, way faster? Because we're trying to win $1,000 here, I need some new eyebrows. This is like watching an episode of The Laziest Catch. Come on, come on, try it. Honestly, I didn't even think about having to get all this food out of the shell. That's for you, that's for you. Your first king crab ever. Wow. Take a dip. And butter. Yeah, go for it. Whole thing, whole thing, whole thing. Oh, look at that. I think we've kind of made a dent so far, we're doing pretty good. It looks good up until he puts his hands and mouth on it. Sonny, be a gentleman. Oh, my god. Okay, we got to cut it open. Oh, look at that. Go, we got to hurry. Four minutes have gone by, you only have three minutes left. Really? Yes. That's got to be at least 100 grams right there. It's pretty boring, to be honest, but, I mean, there's free beer. Can we get a one-minute warning? Thank you. I don't even know what to do with this head, I'm putting it back. Oh, man, that's good. Keep oysters in the sun. It's a very important part of making sure your food is fresh. Are you full? Not yet, not yet. Come on, try it on. This is seafood heaven. I hate that guy. I hate him so bad. What a lot of people don't know is that food poisoning is a state of mind. One minute left. One minute? Okay, you have one minute left. I want to save this for later. Baby lobster. Baby lobster? How do you even eat this? Break it in half. Ten seconds, keep going. Four, three, two, one. Chew, chew, okay. You got to go. Okay, Vy, Vy, Vy, come on. Come on, come on. All right, we got to eat, we got to eat. Here. Okay. I can eat more, but I don't have enough time. Start with the big stuff and work our way down, we'll be fine. Even if you choose a better partner and you're still a loser, it doesn't matter. Oh, my God. My claw just gave birth. What the fudge? Come on, now, sit on it. It's okay. Break it all. Cross-fit it. Use your cross-fit strength. Cross-fit it. There you go. Cross-fit. Ah! Lobster claw. Oh, no. There's five minutes. You got five minutes. No, eat the soft stuff. Eat some shrimp. I didn't realize there was shrimp. Okay, here. I got you some lobster. Thank you. Our hands are clean, everyone. Did I? Yeah, I didn't touch my piece of my hand. I'm going to breathe for 30 seconds. Hey, eat something. Stop talking to me. Come on. All right, I'm back. We got a crab here. I mean, look, there's so many bones and stuff. It smells nice. I don't know how to eat this. What do you eat in the crab? We got some kind of shellfish right here. Oh, it's scallops. I can knock out, like, 50 scallops. I think we can do it. We still have over half the time left. Look, we've already eaten at least a quarter of the food here. Look at this. Leave it for me. You eat it. You have a lot here. Oh, my God. Look, I want you to enjoy it, but, like, can you enjoy it faster? I could watch him eat seafood. I am sorry. I could not watch him eat seafood all day. It's disgusting. Okay. Come on, come on, come on. Sunny, come on. One minute. You got one minute. I need you to eat five kilograms of food. I'm eating ten. It's not pretty back here, man. Three, two, one. Come on, come on. One, two, three. You can have the body. Let me get this gross claw off here for you. Go. What is this? I don't know. What is that? Can you even eat that? That looks like the alien from Independence Day when they open up its head. Salty. Hey, do you want to try some of this king crab? Sure. There's more bottom sack if you want that. Do you want more? No, no. Tear it apart. Tear what apart? This one apart. Oh, my God. You are the seafood killer. Well, whatever. Sorry, let me open this for you. Let's look faster. Yeah. To be honest, it's hard to even tell that we've eaten anything. I'm never going to eat seafood again after this. I don't know if it matters if I go faster because I'm full. I shouldn't have eaten two lunches today. But she's doing great. Check this out. Just to watch him. He's just not well kept. What even is that? If you want to be a winner, you've got to have the mindset. No, no. I don't think so. Okay, let's leave that part. I really want to come back, Benny. Hey, if anybody's watching, they're saying, oh, my God, I'm so jealous. Don't. No, don't. Don't be. It's my turn. Seven minutes. Oh, God. We've got one minute remaining. What's important to remember is that Sunny's wearing skinny jeans, and they're really not doing their job. But, hey, go, Sunny. Ewan, you're coming up next. I hope you're hungry. Stopping, stopping. Okay. Three, two, one. All right, you're out of here. You're out of here. Go, go, go, go, go. Okay. You win. Let's go. All right. This one? You're the last bet here. I got you a lobster tail. No. Oh, no. It's always a good sign when your food leaks. I got you a lobster tail. It's a full lobster tail. I'll suck this meat out. I've got to eat it all. Okay? I'm taking one for the team. I'm eating whatever's in this hole. I got it all. Don't throw up. Do not throw up. Cheers. Oh, that's nice. I'll cheers to him feeling sick. I'm back in the game. I'm feeling better. We've got less than five minutes remaining in our 30-minute time limit. I think you're the strongest eater so far. Keep chewing. We're going to do this. I will not be ridiculed and made fun of on the internet for not being able to finish a measly 66-pound meal. Two minutes? Really? Oh, God. Keep it down. One minute remaining. Keep going. Those are squid. Those are squishy. You're our only hope. Come on. Here. I got no room. If I put one more bite in, I'm going to throw up. No. We've got five seconds. No. Oh, my God, we did it. We did it. She just lost. What a shame. It's hard to say if we won or lost. When I look at the results, it looks like we almost ate all of it. Yeah, we ate a lot. I think he came in weak, and he ended weak. I think he relied too much on his help, and that really alters your mindset in this kind of game. But I don't think the skinny jeans helped either. I think Sonny tried his best. Yeah, he tried his best. You know, when I did my box, Sonny already full, so he didn't eat much. Yeah, I think Hayden is good. What would I have done differently? I would have won to begin with. But with me, you're going to need a bigger boat, to be honest. We maybe came up a little bit short today, but I want you to remember to always go for your dreams, and maybe if your dream is to eat 66 pounds of seafood, pick bigger friends. I'm not blaming it on you guys. I was terrible. Thank you to the team. You guys killed it. None of this is going to be wasted. We're about to chow down again now. Not me. I'm going to go to the bathroom and throw up. But everyone else is going to chow down, including the crew. Thank you so much for watching. Hey, don't forget to share this video with four of your friends that you would include if you did this kind of epic seafood challenge, and we'll see you next week. Peace.
