Ng Chin Sheng, the overall champion of the Botak Jones Massive Burger eating contest, demolished his burger in 1 minute 21 seconds.
Singapore, July 24, 2009 - Underdog scrawny Ng Chin Sheng (above) beat the crowd's favourite to win the Botak Jones Massive Burger eating contest last week.
He also outdid himself.
He wolfed down the huge burger in 1 minute 21 seconds, nearly twice as fast as his preliminary record of 2 minutes 37 seconds.
With sheer determination and full concentration on his chomping, he became the unexpected winner.
Plugged to his music player, he paid no attention to his noisy surroundings, the cheers and jeers from the crowds.
The sesame bun enclosing 220g beef patty, cheese, bacon, two fried eggs was no obstacle.
He managed to dethrone Zack Zainal, (above) with a lead of 10 seconds. Before the finals, Zack held the fastest record during the preliminary stage of the contest with a timing of 1 minute 12 seconds.
However, his supportive fans didn't seem disappointed even though he was slower in the finals with 1 minute 31 seconds.
Coming in third was Meng Cer (above) with a timing of 1 minute 43 seconds.
Thirty-three finalists, picked from best performers in the prelims, took part in the contest at Botak Jones Toa Payoh North.
