Default I'm surprised this wasn't invented in America
I guess if it was invented in America, there'd be 100 lawsuits by now.

It's made up of four beefburgers, eight rashers of bacon, eight slices of cheese, 12 onion rings and three types of relish. Containing an artery-busting 2,645 calories.

Its creator, cafe owner Nick Lomvardos, is convinced it is impossible to consume the meal in one sitting. In fact he's so sure he's offering a free can of diet cola to anyone who can 'beat the beast'.
Good thing he's offering a diet coke if you finish it. A regular coke might make you fat.

looks like all you have to do is split it in half. and eat the two burgers seperately.

Trust me, calorie-busting burgers are nothing new. I can think of 4 or 5 places that have them right off the top of my head, all in Milwaukee.

Everyone should try to conquer one at least once.
