The Ace of Jades 0 Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 We all have friends or know people who bet on damned near anything, well here is a bet that will undoubtedly get you there money. Just simply bet them that they can't eat 7 saltine crackers in one minute. Thats it. Sounds easy, right? Well give it a shot. The only stipulation, no drinking during it. You can have as many drinks as you want before hand, but not during.I've tried it, my friends have tried, I'm up 25 bucks because of it. The beauty is that it sounds like such an easy bet. But when you have those crackers in your mouth you realize it is impossible. I'd speculate maybe one out of five hundred people can do it, if that. So feel free to wager as much as they'd be willing to put on the line.Now go fourth and be prosporus. Link to post Share on other sites

Karkstark1 0 Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 That is a pretty well known thing, so you will have a hard time getting people to make the bet. A less know one is cinnamon. I think it is one tablespoon without water. Link to post Share on other sites

mrdannyg 274 Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Yes this would have been pertinent information back when I was in about the 3rd grade and first heard this.cinnamon isn't as hard as most people think. just collect a lot of saliva in your mouth, hold it near the back, and spoon the cinnamon into the back of your mouth, and try to swallow it quickly, in one shot, with the saliva.i'll invoke the ron_mexico disclaimer though:i don't take responsibility if you choke to death Link to post Share on other sites

Throughout my second year in college there were probably 30 people that tried this, of which succeeded. He felt sick for about 3 hours and wish he HAD thrown up, but he managed to keep it down.ZaraEdit: As for the original challenge, just tried it with 10 Ritz crackers (don't have any saltines) and had it swallowed in 58 seconds. As a caveat though I drank about a quart of water just before hand and I have the ability to regurgitate on demand with at least a moderate amount of stuff in my stomach so in a way I "cheated" Link to post Share on other sites
mrdannyg 274 Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 ok i'll share the one and only stupid ass thing like this i have done.i was probably 13-14 at the time, at an overnight summer camp. we were on a 3-night canoe trip, but there were only 3 4-person tents for about 25 of us, so finding a spot was next to impossible because all the whiny jewish girls spent 22 hours a day in the tent.so i hadn't slept in 40 hours or so. we ate dinner and this included pickles. huge, economy pickle jars of pickles. this of course left huge economy pickle jars full of economy pickle brine. the bet was to drink the remaining pickle brine, which filled up about half of a huge pickle jar (probably about 2 litres of liquid) in exchange for a terrible painting of a girl in a 1920 bikini. the painting had been stolen from a neighbouring campsite, where we'd heard the story of how they'd bought it for $1 at a garage sale in east gwillimbury.so i drank the juice (FMP!). i now know that it tastes kind of like malt liquor, except extremely vinegary. i ended up not sleeping another 30 hours or so, finally passing out on top of a picnic table in the middle of camp for 14 hours. everything tasted like vinegar for a week.i never got the friggin painting either. the counsellor was kicked out the day we arrived when his habits of climbing into the shower stalls with male campers was reported.daniel Link to post Share on other sites
case ace 0 Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 gallon of milk in one hour or 24 eggs in 1/2 hour can't be done.i beat the saltine challenge, but no on can keep down the milk or eggs, and also, the bet isn't throw it up, they will puke OR get the runs within the next half hour.

CaptainHooks 0 Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Another fun one is to swallow a shot of cinnamon...when you put it into your mouth it immediately turns your mouth into sand. It was very funny to watch and my friend had trouble washing his mouth outA great prop bet we had one time during a home game was when a friend had busted already and "needed" to gamble and wouldnt stop nagging the remaining players to bet on something. with a small container of tropical skittles on the side. An annoyed player goes, "I'll bet you cant close your eyes and pick out a blue skittle"..The railbird is excited for the challenge, closes his eyes and gets blindfolded, as a few of us pick a couple of blue ones out of the batch to reduce his odds, but sure enough the dude picks out a blue one and wins the bet Link to post Share on other sites
