At what point was this not newsworthy?

Filed under: Culture — Tim @ 12:58 pm

Headline of the day: Man eats 23,000 Big Macs in 36 years

Out of curiosity why was this story not reported on an annual basis?

I mean, what beat journalist had to endure years of article rejections from their editor? What made the editor crack today versus last year or even yesterday?

And the fact that he’s maintained his weight (185 lbs) makes you wonder if he ever wanted to punch Jared from Subway.

Speaking of which no picture was shown of the guy — who apparently hasn’t cut his hair in 20 years either. I wonder if he wears a turban.

Also, didn’t someone make a movie off of this kind of diet? Was it a bluff?
