CLEARFIELD, Pa. (AP) -- It took Brad Sciullo 4 hours and 39 minutes to finish a marathon. A meat marathon, that is. The 5-foot-11, 180-pound western Pennsylvania chef is the first person to eat a monstrosity called the Beer Barrel Belly Bruiser: a 15-pound burger with toppings and a bun that brought the total weight to 20.2 pounds.
The mountain of beef is the product of Denny's Beer Barrel Pub, about 100 miles northeast of Pittsburgh in Clearfield.
Sciullo, 21, of Uniontown, said he was surprised he finished the sandwich Monday. "About three hours into it, things got tough," he said.
When asked what possessed him to eat a burger that big, Sciullo said: "I wanted to see if I could."
The burger included a bun, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, onions, mild banana peppers and a cup each of mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard and relish, pub owner Dennis Liegey said.
For completing the challenge in the under-five-hour time limit, Sciullo won $400, three T-shirts, a certificate "and a burger hangover, as I call it," Liegey said.

I can feel my arteries hardening just thinking about this.. A cup of mayonnaise and ketchup?
I'm scared to ask how many calories are in this thing..
Four and half hours to eat a burger? There was no time limit?
 
"About three hours into it, things got tough," he said.

****, ya think?

The only thing I'm doing for three hours begins with an "F" and ends with "ING." That's right: fishing.

Some years back -- 2002 I believe -- me a few college buddies tried this and failed miserably. We didn't come close to finishing the ******* and STILL threw up on the way back to campus.

And just because:

And Trey, that picture will make me laugh all day.
 
I MIGHT be able to do a 10-pounder. 20 pounds? No way, no how, (no McCain).
 
They're going to do a sequel to "Cloverfield" based solely on the turd this guy puts down.

Now that, that is America folks.

That same attitude has been behind virtually every major accomplishment in American history. It's what makes this country great.

God bless you and the massive dump currently clogging your intestines. God bless.

Holy crap.

Ain't gonna be nothing holy about it. They should've included a case of air freshener with his prizes.
