The moment that a man devours 300 Brussels sprouts in just 28 minutes is one of the most stomach-churning moments.
Max Stanford, 34, from London, set out to wolf down 400 sprouts to break the world record held by competitive eater Emma Dalton.
However, the 300-strong Christmas meal staple could not be managed by the volunteer from charity.
In just 28 minutes, a man can eat 300 Brussels sprouts.
Max is seen eating sprouts while using a toothpick to help him eat the second plate.
He uses mayonnaise, tomato ketchup, and curry sauce because of the bitter flavor.
In order to beat the record, he also consumes water, squash, and coke.
He takes on many challenges through Max Vs Food, and recently broke a new world record when he ate 23 McPlant hamburgers in under an hour.
Emma Dalton, from Bromsgrove, Worcestershire, currently holds the record eating a gut-busting 325 sprouts in 36 minutes in 2016.
Wayne Sherlock from Drumconrath in Ireland beat the record for most sprouts consumed within 60 seconds, managing 33.

The charity worker was unable to manage 300 Christmas meals from the 4.2kg platter.
Max stated that it was difficult because they weren’t cooked properly.
“Instead of roasting with some flavor, they were mostly microwaved. This made them taste bland and also gave them a mushy texture.
“But, also because flavour fatigue is when you eat the same thing over and over without changing up any flavour.
“They were also very cold and had a much blander texture due to the way they were cooked.

To make it more enjoyable, he uses tomato ketchup and mayonnaise to mask the bitter taste.
Max declared that he’d never again eat sprouts after spending nearly 28 minutes and 33 second consuming them.
However, now he’s happy to have some on Christmas Day.
He explained that he didn’t wish to see another plant ever again at the time.
“But I do eat healthy and clean food, which also includes lots of veggies including sprouts!”
“I participate in weekly food challenges to improve my ability to eat a lot of different foods at once without feeling sick.”
