The Scotch Egg Challenge

The idea of the challenge is to get a whole scotch egg in your mouth and eat it in one go. For anyone who doesn't know, a scotch egg is a hard boiled egg wrapped in sausage meat, coated in breadcrumbs and then deep fat fried. First up is Mozza entering from the fat bastard group in the pissed up catagory.


There goes the entry, get it in there big lad.


He's struggling, not what the bookmakers anticipated.


Someone grab the sick bucket. Failed miserably!

Next up it's Jez confident he can do it.


The entry.


The gag.


The rejection. Failed!

Next up the mighty Pete Miller.


The entry.


The blockage. Paramedics on standby.


Goooo on my son. Coming back against all odds it's a good solid win.

Next up it's Loz entering for the Hobbits.


The entry. The concentration is immense. There's real tension in the air.


It's in but it looks painful! Now is probably not the right time to ask him if he wants kebab and chips!


No problem, downing the scotch egg in record time smashing the two minute barrier.

Next contender is Neil.


It's not looking good. He's struggling to fit it into his mouth.


Oh no, this isn't looking good., pass over a paper bag.


Catastrophic failure!

It's Tom next claiming it would be easy.


The entry, he's looking cool.


Oops, there's a minor glitch, maybe a boiled egg blocking his windpipe.


And he's done it. An almost effortless performance. He went on to ask, next time could he have one laden with Tabasco sauce.


Matthew refusing to rise to the childish competition opted for a far more civilized approach to eating scotch eggs.

I'll leave you with some pictures taken a little later on in the evening.

Congratulations Mike ... if ever there had been a blogging award for the most vomit inducing post, this would have won it.

Matthew is obviously a well travelled gentleman, who sets store by social ettiquette, not like the rest of your mates who are savages! Yes that includes you too Loz!

Great pics Mike, what is the next challenge. From our conversation yesterday I thought there were more comments, perhaps its not eggsackly eggsciting enough.

Ellie, not a savage, I had both feet on the floor

OMG! As if I wasn't feeling sick enough already!!! You really should put health warnings on these posts Mike.. lol

Great effort by all though I see, except for Matthew (well done for being the only sensible photo on the entire entry!) and one other noticable missing candidate!!!!

So? Where was your attempt huh??

Mike said...

Ellie - Thanks, I knew you'd appreciate the pics. I take it you won't be having a go yourself then?

Peter - The next challenge is the same but with chilli laden scotch eggs.

Mrs Nesbitt - I hope I didn't spoil your lunch.

Dave - That's a fair old achievement.. I don't think I'll be trying to better your efforts.

Ali - Where was my attempt? Err, well someone had to take the photographs :)
