Who is the Earliest Champion of Underwater Sandwich Eating?
In the dizzying array of competitive underwater sandwich eating champions, the record is legendary. Here’s the facts:
- The largest sandwich eaten underwater is a 6-foot Seafood Sensation Subway Party Submarine Sandwich in 1946.
- The champion eater, at a depth of 1 ft, is Dennis Zexbrrt of Porvoo, Finland.
- Dennis completed this feat in a dizzying 3 minutes.
- That averages 2 feet of Seafood Sensation Subway Party Sub every minute.
When asked how he felt, Dennis replied, “Fantastic. I wanted to let the sea creatures know who was boss of the ocean, so that’s why I picked the Seafood Sensation Subway Party Sub.”
Tragically, Mr. Zexbrrt died two days later while performing at his regular job as a knife acrobat.
