I know Zermatt cause we went to the same gym last time. The amount of work he puts in when he's not shooting or doing any content is incredible and the discipline too... What he said here in this video is really a tip of the iceberg. He maintains his health on a daily basis and i know he can continue this is the next 10 years or so. Good job Zermatt. Keep it up!
Did he do resistance/weight training or only cardio. Not much muscle in him, whereas muscle is largest glucose displosal in the body
@@lile5341probably more on cardio
@@lile5341you didn’t watch the video did you? This is what we call foolishness
Why are so many people criticising Zermatt? So many people are just jumping quick into conclusions such as “he is wasting food” or “he is not being considerate”. Those who say that have clearly not watched his videos before. He clearly finishes his food and pays for what he eats full price. He does competitive eating as a hobby and it is not overeating as he is clearly well trained for it and can handle such large portions. He also promotes hawkers and restaurants which is also a positive. He watches is health very carefully and only shoots every 3-4 days and was also a dietician. He watches his health and exercises regularly. So I do not understand the hate at all. You haters are just jealous.
ikr. Frankly, I'd rather watch him eat and promote local hawker food over some other influencers who do post dumb content just for the sake of getting likes.
You checked with the wrong group. They are all complaining on Facebook, not here.
He made his living from eating competitively, he paid in full for the food, yes nothing wrong with that.
But I wound love to see him donates food to the homeless in Singapore. He's not liable to do the charity but it would be an extra point for me to respect him as a youtuber.
Overeating is a waste of food though. He himself is clever enough to understand that but its his career so he is not going to sabotage himself. Let us not go into denial just because we like his videos. I watch his videos sometimes and enjoy it sometimes too but I don't deny that I'm wrong to help promote overeating and wasting of food.
Boomers be booming. They need to meet their "how can dis b allow ?" quota for the month.
totally salute to this guy. Everyone knows it is not easy to be that discipline keeping 3 off days only eating healthy food and doing lots of cardios to reduce the calories. After all of that back to crazy amount of eating for the work. Just imagine you are doing this for years and still have to juggle your health. He is successful for a reason.
I have been watching Zermatt’s videos, he is a down to earth guy. 😊
OYK disapproves this message. This is not sponsored by MOH.
Ive worked with him before. He is very MCP
He was one of the content creators we work with. The reality is, he is a humble guy.
@@johnwig285 on cam not off
Previously I asked Zermatt on his channel how did he store that much food in his skinny and lean frame of his. He actually replied and said he was a mutant ! LOL after watching this video, explaining his routine and how he does it reveals he is indeed human ! Hahaha but wow Zermatt you are amazing ! Hats off to you man !
Maybe 10% alien lol 👽😆😅🙊
Funny how all those who criticise are the same ones either smoking, drinking or consuming unhealthy food with a lot of salt/sugar, just that yall think you are "healthier" under the illusion of 3 plates of unhealthy food per day. The difference between us and him is that he fasts, he workouts regularly & he closely monitors his health through blood tests.
Why do you assume the critics are doing what you say they are doing ? Such a strange assumption 🤔
This is a great interview with insightful information! Zermatt fan here! 😊
This guys a legend!
He is an MCP off cam
Thanks for the feature! 🫶🫶🫶
Glad they featured you!!! You're awesome!
Singapore Proud 🎉
I've always wondered how the health checkup results of these competitive eaters are like. They may be able to maintain their bodies physically but the organs can't be loving the huge peaks and drops of them massive amounts of food that they take
I kind of feel like this could be closer to how our ancestors ate, ie when there is food you fill up and there would be times you fast when you can’t find food, so maybe our bodies are ok with that.
Same. I'm curious about their sodium, sugar and cholesterol levels etc.
They will know it when aged
He does health screening every 6 mths
Fasting is pretty popular in the health community. They said eating constantly like what normal people do is the one that cause blood sugar level to always be elevated thus bad for the body.
That's what I call a content creator!! Respect but pls take care of your health too.
Thanks boss!
He does fasting, that's give your body a break. No wonder he can stay in shape and he mentioned he doesn't do this everyday, so he should be fine.
This video is precious to me cos, I really get to know and understand you better.
Thanks so much..👍👏👏💝🌻🌟
Power Bro ❤
Zermatt is a beast in this sport and would love to see him take on Nathan's famous hotdog and represent Singapore!!
Love your content Zermatt!❤
Zermatt is super nice!
love the use of the yakuza font
💜
power lah bro!
zermatt love ❤
Young man, I love watching you eat. But I also worry about your health. Where do you see yourself in 10 years time? Take care and good health.
Agreed. He is living for his fame now. 20years from now we will.all be attending his funeral
Always wondered how Zermatt stays so slender despite eating so much! So fasting is part of his secret!
he is lean, not slender HAHA
Lol fasting is not his secret to stay lean... He is in extreme calories deficit most of the time when he is not filming and he go to gym, walk and run alot.
The main reason why he fast is to allow him to maintain the volume of food his stomach can store while being in calories deficit during off day.
Your talent is being born without a sensor in your body to tell you that you are full
I think that applies to every overweight person 😂😂😂 Zermatt is disciplined enough la
zermatt!!!
Enjoying what he is doing and doing well, keep up your good content!
Eat all you can buffet probably have a ban on this guy!😆😆😆😆
Good for him that he also looks for his health seriously if he wants to compete more. Hoping this do not take a toll on his health!
Billion dollar global insight - Thesis on marketing, psychology, culinary, MBA cum competitive eating diplomas, monetise as movie, anime, TH-cam or real life: When filming video content for TH-cam where protagonist consume extra large servings of food in a single bowl, pre-calculate (double check three times) to determine the volume of the food, go to various e-commerce platforms and purchase a bowl that is slightly smaller than the volume of food, arrange the food so it looks like its going to overflow out of the bowl to enhance the visual wow and showcase more pixels of the food than the bowl. This will max sales for the sponsor, content creator and happiness for the viewers.
the comments are the true definition of sinkie pwn sinkie can sleep well tonight
have been watching his videos since he had only thousands of subscribers, I think he could eat more than the most popular mukbanger in Indonesia named tanboy kun
calorie deficit is everything, he could eat 10 grand calories in a video, if his BMR is 1800 and he burnt 1200 calories, consuming 500 calories each day, it means he has 2500 calorie deficit a day, he said it takes him 3 days to take another mukbang video so 4 days including the day video taken in total he burnt 10k calories
Zermatt Neo and Matt Stonie Collab please!!!!
Wait. What I'm most curious about is he's able to make the decision to quit his job to pursue being a full-time youtuber. That tells me he's raking in the big bucks to even afford a team + intern. Wah how to be like this.
no way he is 35😮
Wish they covered the toilet situation after a video…
He is very skinny and lanky in real life. Lol
It contrast with his job and appetite.
Anyway im cool with him. Though i do worry for his health at times when i watch his contents. Stay safe and healthy.
恭喜今天你上新明日报了
Some will never gets fat no matter how much they eat.
I'm wondering about the long term effects of doing this? Surely it can't be good?
Long term effect is your stomach stretch too frequent that they lose their elasticity which means at your old age, food just gonna pass thru the body without getting digested much and the body is unable to get much nutrients it need.
Or ruptured intestine. May need ostomy bag to pass out poop.
Hope he don't do this for too long.
he will slow down once he reach his 40s
crazy man2023
competitive eater 😃 you do you
When my PT ask me to keep at 1300 kcal (~3 bowls of it) a day to lose fat ..... Talking about calorie deficit. He have my whole week of kcal in a meal. 😅
You can do it if you also fast for 7 days like this guy
I have to keep it at 800cals a day for 3mths to loose 10kgs 😅lost 5kgs so far lol ..he eats 1 weeks of cal in one meal but still got 6 packs 😅
@@Sunburstbear 800kcal is too little! Are u starving? Sustainable for life???
@@starshine9836 lol no starving at all ..eat normal breakfast and lunch 🥗 🍱 only no dinner.. just lots of fruits 🥭 🍎 🍉 😆 as we age we don't eat so much lol
Zermatt is a dietician?!?
Sorry to say the body of a kamakaze eater will not stand for this kind of abuse for long.
even eating also kiasu ah this singaporean 🤣
In this house? 😮😮😮
HE DOESNT LOOK LIKE 35 WHAT THE!
I wonder where is Zermatt's income coming from? Advertisers?
Yes, social media platforms like TH-cam and Facebook pays the content creator based on the ads the viewers interact with when when watching videos. And when the content creator becomes popular enough, he could get sponsorships, or being paid by restaurants/ eateries to promote their brand. So basically, many sources of income.
it drop from the sky
The guys livers a 2 liter bottle. The only problem is. That's not liquid! hahahahaha
Think carefully la. We can all agree that F1 Ferrari engine is better than Toyota's engine right? But which one last longer before breaking down? You have your answer. The key is not to overwork your organs. In fact, it is also kinda arrogant for one to assume his/her digestive organs is substantially better than others, and that one can compensate damages/shocks to your organs through more exercises/occasional diet? CNA dare to feature such extreme things as "Lifestyle".
He's 35?? Dude looks 28 tops
Can all the so called health Einsteins in the comments section explain to me how he have a 6 pack eating like this. It seems to me you all know more about his health than the doctors he sees regularly and himself.
Lapsap
The training and competitions not only can cause gastric ruptures and drop sodium levels to dangerously low levels that might lead to seizures but also can trigger eating disorders. This guy is a walking time bomb just a matter when it happens only. Exchanging health to monetize oneself via youtube viewership really isn’t worth it.
He is a dietician so he definetely knows what he is doing. And he also mention that once he pass 40, he will explore other new stuff like travel vlog.
@@Mrshauny his profession doesn’t exempt him from doing something unnatural to the human body. It’s bound to have problems which will not be publicly known.
@@VioletCandyzdefine natural. Because most have been eating "naturally" i.e. 3 plates w/o fasting yet face the issue of diabetes or high blood pressure etc
@@johnwig285 Natural is having one serving of chicken rice and not eating 30 servings of chicken rice in one meal sitting. Btw what you eat also matters even if you have 3 plates of whatever.
Everyone is already sick without being a competitive eater so it's not like he's alone in being sick. It's rare for people to eat healthily and excercise. I don't think I eat that different from others and I'm a normal weight person but I still have acid reflux problem (most probably because I like spicy food and sleep after lunch). Im pretty sure most people have some kind of sickness due to their lifestyle so I won't judge others when I'm not perfect myself.
I only curious to the amount of Sh*t he releases into the toilet bowl after a mukbang video. Does he overflow the toilet
from his videos he already said, it doesnt come out as a whole
Lol definitely not 10kgs of food = 10kgs of 💩💩💩💩😂😂😂😂😂
People need to know he isnt a food blogger. He knows nothing about food. He just eats alot of quantity. Dont confuse him as a food blogger
Hairstylist needs to be fired😂
It's unwise to push human body to what it is not designed for.
comment weaker than stage 4 patients
Really dude? You gave yourself this name?
The way he stays fit is by overloading and clogging up his toilet at home after a hefty meal.
Obviously with his body type he doesn`t keep the food in to digest after every meal. The fact is he pukes everything out after his video is made. Very unhealthy bulimic condition.
Or he could you just use simple math. If you burst your limit by 5,000 calories on Monday. You can undereat from Tuesday to Saturday by 1,000 calories each day to make up for it and meet your weekly maintenance weight calorie requirement.
Hyperthyroidism
The things people do to get eyeballs and likes. Sure you get paid and basically do nothing but eat but honestly, I bet he is always asking himself if it is really worth the madness to abuse oneself just to make a living like that.
Zermatt is such a ridiculous name 😂
FYI it's the name of a famous town in Switzerland 🇨🇭
@@Sunburstbear yes I know, I’ve been there. Still a ridiculous name, even Swiss people don’t name themselves Zermatt
"competitive eating"? WHY?
Nothing to proud about, for health issues this guys sending wrong messages to peoples.
Conman
Unhealthy to stuff yourself.
His fake slag is truly cringe
What he is doing is something I don't want my children to do. It's not natural gorging food in front of the camera and feeling clever and smart about it. There are other occupations in life than this one.
☝️🤓
I worry for Zermatt's health. It doesn't look enjoyable at all even though the food can be good. Can be food wastage too :-(
I think you forgot to watch the video
food wastage? when he finishes all of it?
yes totally. because we can be choose to be 70% full or 200% full. Did u hear him say he needs 1-2 hours sometimes to sit there to recover before moving off? Do you think it sounds healthy?@@christopherlow9238I mean, if he is a dear friend or family member I would worry for him even though I understand this is what he does as work.
God create your body n organ to use slowly n last longer.Food is created to enjoy little by little.This era of human likes or love to challenge nature of god creation..Utimately only times will tell us the truth...🤔🤫🫣we reap what we sow..
Competitive eating literally dates back to the 1800s and possibly, even earlier. People eating a massive amount of food in a single seating as a form of talent/attraction has existed for a very long time....
Gluttony is a sin… dumb waste of time
This is just sad. When we start to find stuff like these interesting it's pretty pathetic.
from all your comments ive seen, clearly just a hater 😂
@@ThatMevely😂 dude what's there to hate? It's all comedy to most of us regular folks.
Competitive eater, what a fancy title for overeating
So, obvious, he threw it all up after eating!
ZN should be denied all access to subsidized public healthcare. His insurer should raise his premiums or terminate the contract. He is a health hazard and cost due to his risky occupation.
What about people who smoke/vape? Or choose not to exercise? Or choose to drive a vehicle recklessly? How?
@@kkcc553 Same circumstance, same outcome. That is literally how the world works.
@@leexianlong6855 As in these people are not denied access to subs public healthcare, right?
@@leexianlong6855diam lah i can guarantee u adopt a less healthier lifestyle than him. U just dont realise because u convince yourself that your 3 plates of unhealthy food is better than his. Show me ur hair first confirm got patch of baldiness from the MSG u consume in chicken rice
Shududp la
why interview him? he is not that great at pls!
Report to Health Promotion Board about this guy! He thinks it's cool to over-eat? Just to be popular at the expense of one's health? He is a negative demonstrator for young people!
Are you...for real ? You cannot report someone to the health promotion board for eating what and how much they wanna eat. Your health is ultimately your responsibility. He clearly knows what he is doing. What's next ? You wanna report a random fat kid to HPB for being overweight too ?
He is a hoax only challenge weaker mediocre opponents dont dare to take on strong opponents in the world.
He takes on Randy Sentinnel and Xiaohui, do your research
@@cheapotraveller7793 im sure there are more competent food challengers than these 2. Do more win more decent competitive eaters then come and talk.
@@jasonlow2266 do beat him first then you talk.
