That's a lot of bull!
Sounds great. Eat a 72 oz. steak (with all the trimmings) in one hour and it's free. Otherwise it'll cost you $72. Not too bad. I've polished off some pretty big meals in my time.
Now take a look (2nd picture) at what a 72 oz. steak looks like. That's 4-1/2 pounds! To make a long story short, I didn't try. Not only do you have to eat it in one hour, but you are on a special platform (think boxing ring) with just you, a big table, and a large digital timer behind you so everyone can keep track of how you are doing. No pressure!
In excess of 20,000 people have tried, and only about 4,000 have done it. The record is by a professional wrestler who finished in 9-1/2 minutes!
I can't imagine finishing this meal without becoming violently sick. Brian summed it up nicely. Even if you win, you lose.

I had a 10 oz. steak tonight and could barely finish it. I love meat, but the thought of a 4.5 pound steak sounds repulsive!
