he was japanese.... and i think he weighed like 130 lbs or something like that... or 150.. i dunno... he was pretty light.. although 150 is fairly heavy for the average japanese person...

Seems like the guy was asian like you said, but I thought the contest was on coney island or something like that.

He's japanese like you said, I seem to recall his name being something "Kazaki"
I could be wrong. Try a google for crazy kazaki or something hahaha. Just do a google for hot dog eating champ.

It is an annual contest at Coney Island

Definitely no gag reflex and a lead pipe stomach :Q
