Yesterday was the 97th annual Nathan's Famous Fourth of July International Hot Dog Eating Contest, held on the Fourth of July in Coney Island. Joey Chestnut managed to not only win the championship title for the seventh straight year, he also set a new world record by eating 69 hot dogs in just ten minutes.
In this cute video, made by comedian Kevin Maher, little kids attempt to undertake a Nathan's-style hot dog eating contest in Coney Island. Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately), things don't go so well.
In an age where dynasties are few and far between, Joey Chestnut has dominated his sport like few others.
Best of all, he let's the success go straight to his belly.
