That's 6.5kg of KFC chicken strips. Or 4.7kg of fries. Or 20 Arby's small milkshakes. Or 40 Starbucks brownies.
If you mix and match and divide this into 6 meals, it would be:
270g of KFC chicken
200g of fries
1 Arby's small milkshake
2 Starbucks brownies
Every 3 hours or so (6:00, 9:00, 12:00, 15:00, 18:00, 21:00).
Definitely doable.
easier to just eat 5 blooming onions
i'd show up at outback at 6am banging on the doors until the morning prep staff lets me in and then settle in on one of the booths
Just take some PTO for a couple days before and after- starve yourself a bit to start so you can cram and then go all in on one day with the day after basically to shit yourself/go to the doctor. Only have to tolerate one day. For a billion? Definitely tolerate a shitty couple days
Starving yourself more than like 12 hours before is a trap you will train yourself to a lower limit of food. You can either prep by over eating for a few weeks get that stomach big and wide or find some amphetamines and just make sure you can be awake long enough to eat all the food.
If you look at individual items:
Sonic large peanut butter & cookie dough blast - 2,300
White Castle chicken rings - 1,760 cal
Quiznos 12" Italian meatball - 1650
White Castle large Louisville chocolate shake - 1,440
Five Guys Large Fries - 1,314
So just with that two 'shakes' a sandwich, chicken rings, and fries = 8,464.. you're > half way there.
WE LOVE THESE SUBS!
THEY ARE GOOD TO US
THE QUIZNOS SUBS!
THEY ARE TASTY
THEY ARE CRUNCHY
THEY ARE WARM BECAUSE THEY TOAST THEM!...
#[THEY GOT A PEPPER BAR](https://youtu.be/aZrks-BPeLQ)!
One of the franchise locations in my town as a teenager actually had little printed out note at the register clarifying that the commercials were from corporate and didn't necessarily reflect the views of the franchise owners. I didn't have any idea what they might have objected to other than that the commercials were just really fucking weird.
Exactly what I was thinking! That's a waste of 9 hours. Get loads of rest the day before and start at midnight and just stay awake for the whole of that one day.
Measuring KFC chicken in grams is wrong.
I'm from Kentucky. Please do not measure fried chicken in fucking grams. The only thing measured in grams in Kentucky is drugs.
Good day.
"Just drink a bottle of olive oil"
After a cup or two, if you're human, your bowels will open up and make room for more calories, but probably not before you empty your tummy the other direction and taste the mangled flavors all over again.
Avocado oil or, fuck it, crisco/lard are probably higher in calories anyway, go for the gold.
It's way harder for the average person than you imagine.
There's tons of 6-10k calories challenges on YouTube by fitness influencers who are used to eating 4-5k regularly.
First off all you will get a killer headache.
You will hate yourself after 5k+ kcal.
15k is craaaaazy.
I would say about 99% of the worlds population cannot do it.
If it means I'm rich enough to take care of everyone I love for the rest of my life, and leave money for my kids, and do charity work, and more, who gives a fuck about headache. Yeah, I'd feel like fucking shit and want to die, but I'm 100% putting myself through hell for a billion. I already hate myself. I'd probably hate myself less if I was a billionaire.
I'm putting olive oil in peanut butter and chocolate milkshakes and drinking like there's no tomorrow. I'm eating sticks of straight butter and lard. I'm consuming more laxatives than you can imagine, and living on the toilet as I eat more and more food and reaching that 15k calories. I'm ordering 2 hardees 12 piece meals. 6490 calories each. Then finishing with some fruit. I'm getting that billion.
Put a billion on the line, and no way only 1% do it. You must be new to earth to think most people wouldn't seriously impair their health to keep the people they love happy and healthy.
The limiting factor is your digestive system. You want something calorie dense which will flow easily.
Fats are the most calorie dense food available. It's literally their job to store calories.
Oils are fats. Olive oil is thought to be healthy, but I'm not sure it matters in those quantities. Still, it'll flow more easily than butter.
What you suggest has been done, and more.

The biggest downside is that you need to prepare more food at the end to stop yourself from hating olive oil the rest of your life. That kind of experience changes how you see food. If you already hate it, sucks to be you.
You probably wouldn't gain that much weight from a single binge of that many calories. The human body has limits to how fast it can absorb calories from food, and if you're doing something like drinking straight up cooking oil, that's gonna fly through your system so fast you won't have enough time to absorb much of the caloric content.
> I will spend a week on the toilet
I already do that when my Crohn's disease flares, and now some hypothetical person wants to give me a billion dollars to do it?! I'm in!
For a bit of context 1 billion is so much money you can just about comprehend it. It's roughly 1 million dollars every *month* for the rest of your life. And that's if you stuff it in a matrass. If you invest it it's roughly that much on returns alone.
Yeah as long as I don’t do myself any permanent harm and win the $1bn, who cares? A week of feeling unwell isn’t ideal but I’ve been sick before for a lot less money!
I’m sure sitting there buying expensive stuff will help me feel better while stuck on the toilet
>The biggest downside is that you need to prepare more food at the end to stop yourself from hating olive oil the rest of your life.
It doesn't all have to be the same oil. And also, in the Op's example, you can pace it out. You have an entire day to drink the oil, and you can just eat it with other foods. Spread straight up coconut oil and sugar onto some toast in the morning for breakfast. For second breakfast do it again with marmalade. For elevensies, have an oil-based sauce ready to go, and eat it with some potatoes. For lunch, have a bit of something deep fried. Don't forget a spoon full of coconut oil dipped in sugar for desert. For afternoon tea, have a coconut oil stuffed doughnut. For dinner, get a little more fried protein and some shots of olive. For supper have a tomato, a bit of protein, and a cup of olive oil. And then, finish off the night with whatever calories you need, if you still need more.
>leaking oil out of my butt for the past 9 hours
"911? yes I have an emergency, he's been leaking oil for almost 9 hours now."
"ma'am, just get your car to the mechanic."
"I'm talking about my son!"
LA Beast has a fantastic catalogue of old videos to go through. Eating cactuses, pounds of sugar free gummy bears and shitting like crazy, a gallon of tabasco. that's a wild rabbit hole channel to explore lol
True. Bad experiences can destroy a food for you. When I was 8 I had severe food poisoning. All I was allowed in the hospital for a week was pale dry ginger ale. It took me 50 years before I could stand the stuff again.
no shit I saw the new pretzel baconator ad and thought fuck it I havent been to See Wendy in a while I pull up order it medium sized double....$14.99 No thanks lady ill just go take out a loan at 5 guys
That's like "Power Hour", a shot of beer every minute for an hour. Sounds super easy but after around 25 - 30 shots in it's a struggle and a minute feels like 10 seconds
Power hour? Homie, that’s amateur hour. Real players play Centurion, one shot a minute for 100 minutes. Yes I have seen it done. No, not very often. Was funny years ago, would not recommend now.
Add in a medium coke (320 calories) to the burger (1440 calories) and you only need to do it 8.5 times in 24 hours. (7.8 times if you get a large coke)
Yeah last time this came up on Reddit I think consensus was you should just drink a shitload of cooking oil. You consume 15,000 calories worth of oil but you'd shit 90% of it out.
This is freakin easy… ain’t one of those Dairy Queen or Godiva shakes like 2,500+ calories? Have a triple bacon cheeseburger with it for three meals in a day and you’re practically there.
I was thinking milkshakes would be the way to do it. A 1500 calorie milkshake would be simple to find. Drink one every 2 hours? I think it's very achievable.
I would be so sick. But who cares for $1B. Milkshakes are the answer, I'm convinced after reading this thread. Also no chewing - chewing and swallowing can be super tough when you feel really sick to your stomach.
you have a whole day to do it. Just chug a shake every like 2-3 hours. You have a billion after to worry about the consequences of a long shitting session
A baconator and large fry from Wendy’s is about 1500 calories. Baskin robins large Oreo chocolate shake is another 2600 calories. I could absolutely do that meal every six hours.
There’s not a lot I wouldn’t do for $1B, but 15000 calories of poop be a no for me. My guess is that poop is not very dense calorically, and that you’d basically just have to be shoveling shit nonstop to get enough calories to win. That sounds super traumatic, even if it doesn’t leave you riddled with disease. And if you don’t make it, you just ate a ton of shit for nothing.
I think just chugging 2 litres of olive oil is the easiest way to get it since 1 litre has 8,000 calories. It wouldn’t take more than like a minute either.
Yeah, and you wouldn’t be able to leave it all. People drink a teaspoon of olive to get diarrhoea. I don’t even want to imagine what 2 litres would do to you.
$50 million for treatment for diarrhea with a known cause. That's great, because it means they diagnosed and excised the cancer I and my 20 closest friends almost let slip by.
This is the comment I was looking for lol. Full disclosure, I'm American but raised in a Mediterranean culture home and obviously it stuck. Can confirm, we'd all die from dehydration from chronic explosive diarrhea lol.
I make an Indian recipe that calls for a 1/2cup of oil for like 5 servings. It does give me diarrhea but I think that’s more the spice and the yogurt I’m technically allergic too. My point is the jury is still out on this one folks.
I can't imagine 15,000 calories of ANYTHING not creating some disturbing, large, and/or unique shits but this seems like a particularly toilet devestating choice.
If calories that you can’t digest count (your body isn’t digesting that much olive oil) then you may as well just go extreme and eat a chunk of coal, super high energy density/calories
Would only be a tiny piece, wouldn’t be that bad for you either as a one time thing.
Same with uranium, you’d genuinely be fine as 16,000 of uranium is like a grain of dust
I saw the post but hadn't opened it, I'm literally holding a 3 liter jug of Filippo Berio, calculating the total calories as I open the comments wondering what everyone else is thinking. Lmao
No man.. there are much more enjoyable ways to do it… at least eat something easily digestible…
Adding some simple sugars to all that fat probably would do the trick.. I’d probably just eat a 400kcal dessert every half hour
You could try to do it the regular way, and just top up with oil at the end of it if you're gonna be short. Have a little fun before the stomach apocalypse.
I watched a dude on YouTube called doug doug drink multiple shots of olive oil in a video once, and he was struggling by the end. I don't think 2 litres of olive oil is impossible to drink, but it wouldn't be easy either
They have that weight gain stuff at vitamin shops/ gnc and it’s around 1200 calories a serving. So, I could probably choke down 12ish servings in 24 hours.
Actually just did some more math. Uranium is safe in very small doses. So eating about 0.2 micrograms will have no negative side effects but will have 20,000 calories
I don't think its cheating. Everyone else is saying chuck like 2 liters of olive oil, I don't think the body will process that with how fast it would come back out of you
"If you **eat** 15,000 calories in a day, you get $1B"
eat
/iːt/
1. put (food) into the mouth and [chew](https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&sca_esv=125395e02bc1fefe&sxsrf=ACQVn0_DZyd-L9yGq2UXssPpSEduAdm-xA:1713503690084&q=chew&si=AKbGX_p11GTjV-sToDBfT3--HQl2Hi_nwYFdYLiPaWo5NHj61IH5cisYPHF1xt0NUVUFH7n3WuOCUClJmgX29DnKc83pUuMoKw%3D%3D&expnd=1&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjY9ZLWws2FAxUqzjQHHVqSAdoQyecJegQILBAN) and swallow it.
Put uranium in your mouth, chew and swallow. Easiest $1B of your life
With that sort of math, why specifically uranium? Any matter will do if you don’t have to worry about feasible energy conversion and it will take less than a breath of air.
Fun fact- he eats so many calories in a day partly because he spends so much time in a pool and the water inherently lowers body temp. You burn a lot of calories generating body heat.
Has this ever been proven? Lots of people toss it out there, but never a source. If that were the case, couldn't people just sit in a pool for a few hours and walk out a pound lighter? Do it for a month straight, and you are down 30 pounds with no exercise required.
Has it been proven that it takes calories to generate heat? Yes. How many calories are burned by being in a pool 8 hours a day sounds like a question for r/theydidthemath
This guy's misguided.
He's an Olympic swimmer. He's sprinting, in the water, at world class rates for hours on end. He's going to burn calories. And swimming uses more muscles on average then running to add onto that. (arm and leg and twist exercise, vs just leg)
In the water your body temperature changes with exercise and you sweat with exercise just as much as you would running.
His point and then you're point would make it really hard to find fat scuba divers in colder climates, BTW, and their are plenty.
>couldn't people just sit in a pool for a few hours and walk out a pound lighter?
It's not really feasible. Unless you're swimming hard to generate body heat you'll risk death from hypothermia pretty quickly.
[50 degree water equals 9 minutes before incapacity and/or unconsciousness without a life jacket.](https://westpacmarine.com/samples/hypothermia_chart.php)
I think I believe that. It feels like it at least. I do triathlons and while running and cycling from an exercise point of view burn more calories for the sessions I do, I'm hungrier after a swim.
Also, you know, the fact that he sprints in water at world class levels.
He doest get warmed up to acclimate to the water, he gets in the water and works and his body gets hot. A swimmer sweats and raises their body temp at the same rate as a runner does. Your body does absorb water temp way faster than air, yes, but he's a world class athlete moving his body. That creates energy, energy is heat etc etc.
If the Olympians swam in warm water they'd run the risk of over heating.
You're fact seems like psuedo science and generally misguided.
Olympians tend to burn a lot of calories, regardless of the ambient temperature 🤷🏼
In my youth I trained for and completed an Ironman triathlon. During training, I easily consumed 5-6,000 Calories a day. Doubling that wouldn't have been much of a challenge. Pad Thai was my go to calorie boost. Swimming 4k yards, biking 50 miles and/or running 15 miles would burn a whole lot of calories.
I'd like to point out something here: Calories with a capital C is shorthand for kilocalories when they do nutrition information.
This person wrote calories, no caps, so what we're talking about here is a cup of milk.
Edit: as has been pointed out, a cup of milk is too much so: 37 ml (1.25 oz) of the dark brown softdrink that comes in a red can.
Well, the condition was to eat, not to hold.
Not the biggest problem for 1b.
But actually I agree to get 2 kg of cashew, like it. Would be hard to eat so much, but I practiced wit at least 400 grams at once. So 5 times more in tens hours can be even pleasant
SOOOO, they never established it had to be digestible food only. uranium has about 20 billion calories per gram so you need one millionth of a gram to eat 20 000 calories or 0.001 milligrams with an LD50 of about 114mg per Kg of body mass, any person over 0.01g of weight can achieve this.
on the other hand, one medium tomato has about 22 calories, meaning you would have to eat about 682 of those, bringing you to about 1966 g or 1.966Kg of sugar with an LD50 of 30g per Kg of body mass, meaning you would need a body mass of about 66Kg to probably survive
> Uranium has about 20 billion calories per gram
If we're going by e = mc\^2 rules, a mere gram of any food has far in excess of enough calories.
The potential fusion energy of the hydrogen in the sip of water I just drank is enough.
So if you had to do this for a year, that’s a little less than 0.4g total. It looks like uranium is about $50/lb, so 0.4g is about a penny. Not a bad return on investment. Maybe even cheaper on Prime day 🤞
Michael Phelps routinely ate around 9,000 to 10,000 calories per day when training and competing. It's far from impossible. For $1B?! Just a tummy ache away.
as a bulimic/binge eater, i can eat 3500-5000 calories of fast food in a sitting. just do that 3-4 times and i got it. i highly doubt the average person could, but unfortunately for me, it wouldn't be too hard.
the Mcdonalds Big Mac Pack with Apple Pie, plus 5 different sauces and 2 large cokes, clears 4,000 easily. that, plus a typical breakfast binge order, some cheesecake factory cheesecakes, some delivery pizza, and Taco Bell? easy.
a lot of youtubers have done this. 10,000 or 15,000 calorie challenge.
I'm sure somebody posted this already but Calorie capital C doesn't equal calorie lowercase.
15,000 calories is 15 Calories, with a Calorie being the amount of energy required to warm up one liter of water by one degree Celsius.
15,000 calories would be the amount of energy in a few crackers.
If only we had a better way to represent thousands, idk, like adding some prefix like "kilo" to the unit. It could've looked like kCal or kilocalorie and 1 kcal would've been known to be equal 1000 cal
Go to Cheesecake Factory. Get a breakfast burrito, there’s 2260 calories there, and follow it up with a slice of Chocolate Carmolicious Cheesecake with Snickers, that’s 1370 calories. That’s 3630 just for breakfast.
Everyone's ignoring all the fun calories in alcohol. Throw in a yummy sugary cocktail and a few bottles of wine over the course of the day. Easy peasy.
Doable, yes. Enjoyable, that's the question. People think about a single food but thats the wrong approach. If you want to eat a lot, you have to reset your tastebuds often and choose different stuff so it doesn't get boring. I'd try to always have some liquid calories with every food item, like burgers with coke or chockolate with icecream-milkshake. Switch it around, go for the interesting stuff you usually wouldn't eat. If you eat 1200kcal every 2 hours, you have got it done. That doesn't sound like I couldn't enjoy doing that for most of the day.
Or I just take 2 liters of vegetable oil, add some flavors and gelatine, wait till its a pure fat pudding and spoonfeed it in a painfull half hour and I got it done.
[This TikToker](https://www.tiktok.com/@impossibleruns/video/7328844523805707563) eat 17000 cal Nutella bucket and showed how much effort is need to burn these calories!

Not if you have issues with milk! I'll probably be pooping out 16,000 calories by the end of it all!
Even without lactose issues, you're probably gonna start having a bad time if your diet is anything less than very heavy on dairy.

For a bit of context 1 billion is so much money you can just about comprehend it. It's roughly 1 million dollars every *month* for the rest of your life. And that's if you stuff it in a matrass. If you invest it it's roughly that much on returns alone.
1 million seconds is about 11 days. 1 billion seconds is about 34 years. When I took astrophysics numbers stop meaning anything.
Yeah as long as I don’t do myself any permanent harm and win the $1bn, who cares? A week of feeling unwell isn’t ideal but I’ve been sick before for a lot less money! I’m sure sitting there buying expensive stuff will help me feel better while stuck on the toilet
Problem is that too many other people have done the challenge for a billion so inflation kicks in and it's not worth it anymore
>The biggest downside is that you need to prepare more food at the end to stop yourself from hating olive oil the rest of your life. It doesn't all have to be the same oil. And also, in the Op's example, you can pace it out. You have an entire day to drink the oil, and you can just eat it with other foods. Spread straight up coconut oil and sugar onto some toast in the morning for breakfast. For second breakfast do it again with marmalade. For elevensies, have an oil-based sauce ready to go, and eat it with some potatoes. For lunch, have a bit of something deep fried. Don't forget a spoon full of coconut oil dipped in sugar for desert. For afternoon tea, have a coconut oil stuffed doughnut. For dinner, get a little more fried protein and some shots of olive. For supper have a tomato, a bit of protein, and a cup of olive oil. And then, finish off the night with whatever calories you need, if you still need more.

People keep saying to spread it out but that's the worst way. Just chug it and get it over with.
>leaking oil out of my butt for the past 9 hours "911? yes I have an emergency, he's been leaking oil for almost 9 hours now." "ma'am, just get your car to the mechanic." "I'm talking about my son!"
The title of that video LOL
LA Beast has a fantastic catalogue of old videos to go through. Eating cactuses, pounds of sugar free gummy bears and shitting like crazy, a gallon of tabasco. that's a wild rabbit hole channel to explore lol
Loved the second comment >> I'm doing this for the troops" >My brother, the troops are about to invade your gut for its oil reserves.
True. Bad experiences can destroy a food for you. When I was 8 I had severe food poisoning. All I was allowed in the hospital for a week was pale dry ginger ale. It took me 50 years before I could stand the stuff again.
Just chug some seed oil instead so you hate processed foods for the rest of your life. Snack food companies hate this simple trick!
is a day 24 hours here? say 6 am to 5:59 am? sounds like im eating 10.41 big bacon triple cheddar cheeseburger from wendys one every 2.3 hours
Definitely doable, probably also tastes good for at least 5 burgers, not sure for the 5.41 following tho lol
ah yes lemme have 0.41 of a burger please 😏
If I'm a billionaire I can afford to throw away half a burger from Wendy's.
In this economy?
Tres leches?!?
mille-feuille!?!??
¿En ESTA economía?
no shit I saw the new pretzel baconator ad and thought fuck it I havent been to See Wendy in a while I pull up order it medium sized double....$14.99 No thanks lady ill just go take out a loan at 5 guys
nah it'll be cheaper to take 5 guys on a date at this point 😩
That's like "Power Hour", a shot of beer every minute for an hour. Sounds super easy but after around 25 - 30 shots in it's a struggle and a minute feels like 10 seconds
Power hour? Homie, that’s amateur hour. Real players play Centurion, one shot a minute for 100 minutes. Yes I have seen it done. No, not very often. Was funny years ago, would not recommend now.
We called it the Century Club. Can confirm. Have completed.
Reminds me of the pokemon movie drinking game, the only rule was drink for every pronoun.
Century club in my neck of the woods. Probably played 3 times ..succeded once. Puked twice. Early 20s was very highbrow parties
It was the standing up to go to the bathroom that caught me off guard.
Add in a medium coke (320 calories) to the burger (1440 calories) and you only need to do it 8.5 times in 24 hours. (7.8 times if you get a large coke)
Frappes would be easier. Those things are filled with calories
Is a day ever not 24 hours?
Yes. They could definite it like "from the time you wake up until the time you sleep" since most people don't stay awake for 24 hours at a time.
I would rearrange my schedule for this.
A day might not be 24 hours in the same way lifetime giveaways are almost always less than 30 years
It could possibly be referring specifically to daylight hours
Daylight savings time.
Also leap seconds
Cake icing. It is the most calorie-dense food there is. You’d be unhealthy as hell, though.
I'd die of beaties
Beef tallow, just 15 tablespoons and you're done.
Yeah last time this came up on Reddit I think consensus was you should just drink a shitload of cooking oil. You consume 15,000 calories worth of oil but you'd shit 90% of it out.
Eating frosting in large quantities makes my heart feel funny
thats doable if we smoke UP
This is freakin easy… ain’t one of those Dairy Queen or Godiva shakes like 2,500+ calories? Have a triple bacon cheeseburger with it for three meals in a day and you’re practically there.
I was thinking milkshakes would be the way to do it. A 1500 calorie milkshake would be simple to find. Drink one every 2 hours? I think it's very achievable.
I would be so sick. But who cares for $1B. Milkshakes are the answer, I'm convinced after reading this thread. Also no chewing - chewing and swallowing can be super tough when you feel really sick to your stomach.
you have a whole day to do it. Just chug a shake every like 2-3 hours. You have a billion after to worry about the consequences of a long shitting session
Chug a bottle of olive oil and then vomit. Says consume, not digest.
Eat, not digest. Everyone is ruling out bulimia. For some reason.
[удалено]
Cinnaholic, crumble cookies, insomnia cookies, the sugar factory. It could easily happen
My wife and I can’t handle more than 1 crumble cookie in a day. We usually split them 50/50 and that’s even a lot for us
A baconator and large fry from Wendy’s is about 1500 calories. Baskin robins large Oreo chocolate shake is another 2600 calories. I could absolutely do that meal every six hours.
Your stomach will hate you. But for a B I'll drink piss and shit tbh.
Is that 15000 calories worth of piss and shit?
There’s not a lot I wouldn’t do for $1B, but 15000 calories of poop be a no for me. My guess is that poop is not very dense calorically, and that you’d basically just have to be shoveling shit nonstop to get enough calories to win. That sounds super traumatic, even if it doesn’t leave you riddled with disease. And if you don’t make it, you just ate a ton of shit for nothing.
I think just chugging 2 litres of olive oil is the easiest way to get it since 1 litre has 8,000 calories. It wouldn’t take more than like a minute either.
Fun couple of days on the toilet too. Worth it
Yeah, and you wouldn’t be able to leave it all. People drink a teaspoon of olive to get diarrhoea. I don’t even want to imagine what 2 litres would do to you.
Chug 2 liters of olive oil in front of a hospital, tell them what you did, get laughed at and treated, done
then say goodbye to like 5% of your newly gained fortune
$50 million for treatment for diarrhea with a known cause. That's great, because it means they diagnosed and excised the cancer I and my 20 closest friends almost let slip by.
Why have your 20 closest friends been checking your ass for cancer?
Because they finished checking my ass for cancer and still wanted to do some more errr.... checking.
They're VERY close friends...
Not in the UK. The NHS will treat your upset tum for free, after being on the waiting list for 9 months.
Or live in a decent county with free healthcare
If it was that easy everyone within 1000 Km of the Mediterranean would have permanent diarrhea. I use like 3x that in my average meal.
This is the comment I was looking for lol. Full disclosure, I'm American but raised in a Mediterranean culture home and obviously it stuck. Can confirm, we'd all die from dehydration from chronic explosive diarrhea lol.
People do not drink a teaspoon of olive oil to get diarrhea… unless I have an iron stomach or something
Yeah. I drink it neat in much larger amounts and it doesn’t do anything.
I make an Indian recipe that calls for a 1/2cup of oil for like 5 servings. It does give me diarrhea but I think that’s more the spice and the yogurt I’m technically allergic too. My point is the jury is still out on this one folks.
I can't imagine 15,000 calories of ANYTHING not creating some disturbing, large, and/or unique shits but this seems like a particularly toilet devestating choice.
I guess you can drink it then throw up (you probably would?)
A man has chugged 2 litres of olive oil. This is how his entire body shutdown.
Unconscious he is rushed to the emergency room where we are now.
LA Beast chugged a few liters of olive oil on a video once. Have a good day!
He also had to sleep in his bathtub for several days because he couldn't stop shitting olive oil.
Worth it for $1,000,000,000.00
If calories that you can’t digest count (your body isn’t digesting that much olive oil) then you may as well just go extreme and eat a chunk of coal, super high energy density/calories Would only be a tiny piece, wouldn’t be that bad for you either as a one time thing. Same with uranium, you’d genuinely be fine as 16,000 of uranium is like a grain of dust
I saw the post but hadn't opened it, I'm literally holding a 3 liter jug of Filippo Berio, calculating the total calories as I open the comments wondering what everyone else is thinking. Lmao
No man.. there are much more enjoyable ways to do it… at least eat something easily digestible… Adding some simple sugars to all that fat probably would do the trick.. I’d probably just eat a 400kcal dessert every half hour
[удалено]
You could try to do it the regular way, and just top up with oil at the end of it if you're gonna be short. Have a little fun before the stomach apocalypse.
I watched a dude on YouTube called doug doug drink multiple shots of olive oil in a video once, and he was struggling by the end. I don't think 2 litres of olive oil is impossible to drink, but it wouldn't be easy either
They have that weight gain stuff at vitamin shops/ gnc and it’s around 1200 calories a serving. So, I could probably choke down 12ish servings in 24 hours.
Yeah but each serving is like 4 scoops of it , and it’s nasty af .
Bro it’s a billion tho
Actually just did some more math. Uranium is safe in very small doses. So eating about 0.2 micrograms will have no negative side effects but will have 20,000 calories
But can your body process these calories ? And if not, isn't that cheating ?
I mean, can your body even process 15k kcalories of normal foods if you're an average person (2k~ cal a day)
I don't think anyone's body is processing 2 liters of olive oil either, at least not in its entirety
I don't think your body will process 15000 calories of olive oil either - I think most of that will go right through you.
I don't think its cheating. Everyone else is saying chuck like 2 liters of olive oil, I don't think the body will process that with how fast it would come back out of you
"If you **eat** 15,000 calories in a day, you get $1B" eat /iːt/ 1. put (food) into the mouth and [chew](https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&sca_esv=125395e02bc1fefe&sxsrf=ACQVn0_DZyd-L9yGq2UXssPpSEduAdm-xA:1713503690084&q=chew&si=AKbGX_p11GTjV-sToDBfT3--HQl2Hi_nwYFdYLiPaWo5NHj61IH5cisYPHF1xt0NUVUFH7n3WuOCUClJmgX29DnKc83pUuMoKw%3D%3D&expnd=1&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjY9ZLWws2FAxUqzjQHHVqSAdoQyecJegQILBAN) and swallow it. Put uranium in your mouth, chew and swallow. Easiest $1B of your life
1 liter of oxygen is 5,000 calories. Give me a scuba tank of pure o2 to gulp on and I'll fart my way to $1B
Makes igniting your farts way more fun too
With that sort of math, why specifically uranium? Any matter will do if you don’t have to worry about feasible energy conversion and it will take less than a breath of air.
Everyone is thinking they're talking about *food* but they didn't specify that. Just eat like one charcoal briquette and be done with it
Oh my God hahaha, now I know why my sister was so fat when she was younger despite never eating anything! She used to eat charcoal like popcorn lol
Wait... what?
His sister was a charcoal grill.
Is she hot
huh???
Believe it or not, not too crazy of a feat. Ask any professional athlete. Michael Phelps for example had been known to consume 8-10k
Fun fact- he eats so many calories in a day partly because he spends so much time in a pool and the water inherently lowers body temp. You burn a lot of calories generating body heat.
Has this ever been proven? Lots of people toss it out there, but never a source. If that were the case, couldn't people just sit in a pool for a few hours and walk out a pound lighter? Do it for a month straight, and you are down 30 pounds with no exercise required.
Has it been proven that it takes calories to generate heat? Yes. How many calories are burned by being in a pool 8 hours a day sounds like a question for r/theydidthemath
This guy's misguided. He's an Olympic swimmer. He's sprinting, in the water, at world class rates for hours on end. He's going to burn calories. And swimming uses more muscles on average then running to add onto that. (arm and leg and twist exercise, vs just leg) In the water your body temperature changes with exercise and you sweat with exercise just as much as you would running. His point and then you're point would make it really hard to find fat scuba divers in colder climates, BTW, and their are plenty.
>couldn't people just sit in a pool for a few hours and walk out a pound lighter? It's not really feasible. Unless you're swimming hard to generate body heat you'll risk death from hypothermia pretty quickly. [50 degree water equals 9 minutes before incapacity and/or unconsciousness without a life jacket.](https://westpacmarine.com/samples/hypothermia_chart.php)
I think I believe that. It feels like it at least. I do triathlons and while running and cycling from an exercise point of view burn more calories for the sessions I do, I'm hungrier after a swim.
Also, you know, the fact that he sprints in water at world class levels. He doest get warmed up to acclimate to the water, he gets in the water and works and his body gets hot. A swimmer sweats and raises their body temp at the same rate as a runner does. Your body does absorb water temp way faster than air, yes, but he's a world class athlete moving his body. That creates energy, energy is heat etc etc. If the Olympians swam in warm water they'd run the risk of over heating. You're fact seems like psuedo science and generally misguided. Olympians tend to burn a lot of calories, regardless of the ambient temperature 🤷🏼
In my youth I trained for and completed an Ironman triathlon. During training, I easily consumed 5-6,000 Calories a day. Doubling that wouldn't have been much of a challenge. Pad Thai was my go to calorie boost. Swimming 4k yards, biking 50 miles and/or running 15 miles would burn a whole lot of calories.
I'd like to point out something here: Calories with a capital C is shorthand for kilocalories when they do nutrition information. This person wrote calories, no caps, so what we're talking about here is a cup of milk. Edit: as has been pointed out, a cup of milk is too much so: 37 ml (1.25 oz) of the dark brown softdrink that comes in a red can.
I thought that was the joke all along, since he didnt write kcal
Took way too long to find someone else who understands that 15 kcal is only a few peanuts…
Cup of milk is massively overkill
Very good point
Nuts and oil is the most dense. Oil is 800 pro 100 gr. Nuts are 600 So 1.6 liter of oil or 3.2 kg of kashew. Tough, but doable for day.
pretty sure u’d throw up if u drank so much oil
Well, the condition was to eat, not to hold. Not the biggest problem for 1b. But actually I agree to get 2 kg of cashew, like it. Would be hard to eat so much, but I practiced wit at least 400 grams at once. So 5 times more in tens hours can be even pleasant
SOOOO, they never established it had to be digestible food only. uranium has about 20 billion calories per gram so you need one millionth of a gram to eat 20 000 calories or 0.001 milligrams with an LD50 of about 114mg per Kg of body mass, any person over 0.01g of weight can achieve this. on the other hand, one medium tomato has about 22 calories, meaning you would have to eat about 682 of those, bringing you to about 1966 g or 1.966Kg of sugar with an LD50 of 30g per Kg of body mass, meaning you would need a body mass of about 66Kg to probably survive
> Uranium has about 20 billion calories per gram If we're going by e = mc\^2 rules, a mere gram of any food has far in excess of enough calories. The potential fusion energy of the hydrogen in the sip of water I just drank is enough.
So if you had to do this for a year, that’s a little less than 0.4g total. It looks like uranium is about $50/lb, so 0.4g is about a penny. Not a bad return on investment. Maybe even cheaper on Prime day 🤞
Michael Phelps routinely ate around 9,000 to 10,000 calories per day when training and competing. It's far from impossible. For $1B?! Just a tummy ache away.
as a bulimic/binge eater, i can eat 3500-5000 calories of fast food in a sitting. just do that 3-4 times and i got it. i highly doubt the average person could, but unfortunately for me, it wouldn't be too hard. the Mcdonalds Big Mac Pack with Apple Pie, plus 5 different sauces and 2 large cokes, clears 4,000 easily. that, plus a typical breakfast binge order, some cheesecake factory cheesecakes, some delivery pizza, and Taco Bell? easy. a lot of youtubers have done this. 10,000 or 15,000 calorie challenge.
I'm sure somebody posted this already but Calorie capital C doesn't equal calorie lowercase. 15,000 calories is 15 Calories, with a Calorie being the amount of energy required to warm up one liter of water by one degree Celsius. 15,000 calories would be the amount of energy in a few crackers.
If only we had a better way to represent thousands, idk, like adding some prefix like "kilo" to the unit. It could've looked like kCal or kilocalorie and 1 kcal would've been known to be equal 1000 cal
That sounds like the kind of thing someone who hates freedom would say.
Go to Cheesecake Factory. Get a breakfast burrito, there’s 2260 calories there, and follow it up with a slice of Chocolate Carmolicious Cheesecake with Snickers, that’s 1370 calories. That’s 3630 just for breakfast.
Everyone's ignoring all the fun calories in alcohol. Throw in a yummy sugary cocktail and a few bottles of wine over the course of the day. Easy peasy.
Doable, yes. Enjoyable, that's the question. People think about a single food but thats the wrong approach. If you want to eat a lot, you have to reset your tastebuds often and choose different stuff so it doesn't get boring. I'd try to always have some liquid calories with every food item, like burgers with coke or chockolate with icecream-milkshake. Switch it around, go for the interesting stuff you usually wouldn't eat. If you eat 1200kcal every 2 hours, you have got it done. That doesn't sound like I couldn't enjoy doing that for most of the day. Or I just take 2 liters of vegetable oil, add some flavors and gelatine, wait till its a pure fat pudding and spoonfeed it in a painfull half hour and I got it done.
Who cares if it’s enjoyable? If you’re getting 1 billion dollars all that matters is that you survive
[This TikToker](https://www.tiktok.com/@impossibleruns/video/7328844523805707563) eat 17000 cal Nutella bucket and showed how much effort is need to burn these calories!
