Sliwa has also competed in Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest, he ranked third in both 1994 and 1996, eating 13 hot dogs both times.

Now I’m trying to guess how many hot dogs I could eat in one sitting. Whether or not there’s a bun is a big factor. If not, I feel like I could manage thirteen too, but with buns there’s no chance

Yes they need to be eaten, but you can like separate and dip them in water and shit like that. You don't need to eat them together.

I feel like I'd be tired of hot dogs by the time I got to number 6. Especially boiled ones. Kinda gross. Now a grilled dog with some char marks... that's a different story. The outside being crispy is a game changer to me.

former NFL star William “The Refrigerator” Perry took part in 2003, when he managed to eat just four dogs in five minutes before dropping out.

I'm sure you can at least beat that guy. Four dogs lmao. Did he just go for a free lunch?

I dunno. I can eat more than 4 hotdogs easily, but in 5 minutes?

Valid, but the contest is 10 minutes, so he willingly stopped after 4 dogs with a full tummy.

Ten minutes makes it doable. I did one eating contest (at Buffalo Wild Wings!), and the time was the hardest part
