British Strongman Eddie Hall once consumed nearly 16,000 calories daily for his World’s Strongest Man championship in 2017. His diet had high-protein elements that panned out across seven meals throughout the day. However, Hall received massive backlash on social media for posting a video on what seemed to be a harmless challenge in the first place. What went wrong?

A few hours ago, Hall shared an entertaining video of him consuming 61 raw eggs after getting inspired by a similar video on the internet. While consuming 61 eggs would have made Eddie a viral celebrity once again, it backfired. Apparently, his followers were not impressed by how the events unfolded after Hall took up the challenge.

In the video, Hall watches a clip of a bodybuilder struggling to chug down 61 raw eggs. Although the bodybuilder managed to gulp in the eggs, he makes a puking face, owing to its aftertaste. Getting inspired by him, Hall took the challenge to drink that many raw eggs. Dismissing with a quick hand gesture what Eddie thought was an exaggeration on the bodybuilder’s part, he takes a blender and cracks open 61 eggs in it!

Here was the moment of reckoning. Eddie walked out of his home into an open space and attempted to chug the eggs in quick succession. The moment he tries to drink the pungent-smelling raw eggs, he throws out incessantly whatever little amount went in his mouth. Unable to tolerate the taste of the eggy drink, the strongman begins to cough and puke. He shared the video with the caption, “Drinking 61 RAW EGGS🤮🥚”
