Gal Sone

While watching some Japanese programs on YouTube, I came across a very unusual J-Pop singer and competitive eater named Natsuko "Gal" Sone. Wired magazine probably has the best article on her currently. The Gal Sone vs Presley video is a good example of what she's capable of.

This video helps explain why she's able to eat such enormous amounts of food in one sitting. Basically, she has an enlarged and expandable stomach/small intestine combined with an abnormally high metabolism. This means that most people who try to challenge her- guy or girl- don't have much of a chance. My favorite comment from the YouTube community has nothing to do with her eating but rather her looks:
Anyone else disturbed by the lack of the whites of her eyes?

She wears Korean "circle lens", which are special cosmetic contact lens with a extra black ring on the outside, so it makes the eyes look larger. They usually give a nice "cute" look, but not in her case it seems.

But it makes her unique : ]
