The Wine Gum Challenge: Am I Man Enough?

[Iun]

Okay, so here it is: The Wine Gum Challenge.

I'm always boasting about how much I love Wine Gums, now it's time to prove it.

Between now and the 4th of September, I'm taking bets on how many Wine Gums I can fit into my manly mouth: on the 5th of September, I will complete the challenge!

Basically, the person who guesses to the nearest Wine Gum how many I can manage, will win a signed bag of Wine Gums and the hospital bill for the stomach pump!

Bets are to be posted here, or to me direct: talliswolf@hotmail.com

A picture, proving irrefutably that I stuffed my mouth with Wine Gums will be provided as evidence!

And remember: this has never been attempted before, I do not know the answer to the question!

[The fish]

I'm saying a nice rounded 20. Not too low, but realisticly balanced.

[KKOB]

MMMMMMMMMM WINEGUMMY-NESS

[Iun]

I'm saying a nice rounded 20. Not too low, but realisticly balanced.

Sensible, very sensible.

One night about 6 months ago I managed to snaffle down an entire Kilo of those delicious gums...

...of course, I wasn't hungry for days after, but neither did I need any sleep for a while.

[The fish]

This thread (especially it's title) has cheered me up imensely after my 6th form entry woes. :)

[weeyellowbloke]

I just can't wait for the big event, it'll be colourful. Can we get a live feed up so we watch the action and drama unfold.

[The fish]

LOL

I second that notion.

[DanielTimothy]

How big is your mouth? Can we have a picture? :)

[Bren]

41. I want some if i get it right.

[Iun]

How big is your mouth? Can we have a picture? :)

Kinky!

As for a live feed.... it's possible... yes... possible. But someone will have to show me how!

[Jordan]

You could setup Webcam2000. It would only be stills every couple of seconds mind.

My bet is 26. :)

[mario114]

I'm going for 36.

[Supergrunch]

I think I'll go for 31.

[bob]

135.


Assuming you can unhinge your jaw, which i believe you can.

[DanielTimothy]

He need not unhinge his jaw! Just larger cheeks to become a human hamster. I'd say 14 wine gums and one willy . . .

I'm looking forward to pictures. ;)

[Letty]

hell no :D

[Sarka]

24! Mwahaha...

[Charlie]

Can I have 2 guesses please? 1 number higher than the highest and 1 number lower than the lowest :)

[link64uk]

id go for 14 as they are quite big prove me wrong i dare you

[Shino]

Exactly 18, and I don't even know what they are.

[Iun]

Can I have 2 guesses please? 1 number higher than the highest and 1 number lower than the lowest :)

That would be cheating!

Only one guess per person!

[Charlie]

That would be cheating!

Only one guess per person!

Ok, I'm going for 1 higher than the highest guess then :heh:

[weeyellowbloke]

Exactly 18, and I don't even know what they are.

They're about 1cm^3 but extremely squishable.

[Jordan]

24! Mwahaha...

Twenty Four! The Number Of The Bauer!

[DanielTimothy]

They're about 1cm^3 but extremely squishable.

Maynards Wine Gums are squishable. Knock-offs can be as hard as rocks sometimes. Could we have the name of the brand please? :)

[link64uk]

yes we need all info to be able to do this properly

[Shino]

Also, does the mouth needs to be able to shut? Or you'll just stuff them until they pours out?

[Iun]

Right:

1: The brand will be Maynards -after all, they created the Wine Gum.

2: No, the mouth does not need to be able to shut, HOWEVER no single Wine Gum is permitted to protrude more than 1/2cm from the mouth.

3: Mild movements are allowed within the mouth to allow for more access, but anything that can be construed as a full on "chew" is not permitted.

[conzer16]

IMO a live video feed would have to be available for this to be contrued as a valid and acceptable challenge.

I bid 34 :)

[DanielTimothy]

You have some sence then. Maynards all the way! :)

[Iun]

I'll take any volunteers for assistance in getting this thing done live!

[MoogleViper]

Heack I can't be bothered to read all the posts so this may have already been taken but...

37

[Iun]

Hey, repeat numbers are allowed!

[Charlie]

Right:

1: The brand will be Maynards -after all, they created the Wine Gum.

2: No, the mouth does not need to be able to shut, HOWEVER no single Wine Gum is permitted to protrude more than 1/2cm from the mouth.

3: Mild movements are allowed within the mouth to allow for more access, but anything that can be construed as a full on "chew" is not permitted.

I want proof that no Wine Gum will be more tan 1/2 cm out of your mouth. I hope you're planning on selotaping a ruler onto your cheek for the... experiment. :heh:

[Katie]

I say 32 wine gums.

[DCK]

I say exactly 25. You'll have to actually eat them when you're stuffed up though, that's the only way this one counts.

[MoogleViper]

I say exactly 25. You'll have to actually eat them when you're stuffed up though, that's the only way this one counts.

He said how many could he fit in not how many could he fit in and still be able to eat.

[Strider]

22......my lucky number

[DanielTimothy]

Will the individual sweets be chosen randomly or will you be choosing the Wine Gums with the most compact shape?

[Iun]

All wine gums are equal in my opinion.

[somme]

I can fit a fist and a half in my mouth.

[DanielTimothy]

I can fit a fist and a half in my mouth.

What good is that? Your a boy!

[Letty]

I say 32 wine gums.

32 is my lucky number bitch :D

[Goron_3]

21, before choking on the floor :D

[Iun]

The biggest challenge is not getting a lot into my mouth, but instead stopping myself from eating them straight away :hmm:

[Bren]

lol, i can see this being in the daily star next week.

Boy chokes in internet challenge!

[Supergrunch]

The biggest challenge is not getting a lot into my mouth, but instead stopping myself from eating them straight away :hmm:
That'll get harder as your mouth fills up. :heh:

[Iun]

Well, yes, they are rather delicious....

I wish I had some Wine Gums right now....:sad:

[Charlie]

lol, i can see this being in the daily star next week.

Boy chokes in internet challenge!

Knowing the Daily Star, it'll be front page too.

[somme]

Then I can release my "own" story about how I was the love child of this internet boy.

[Iun]

I have a love child?

Wait a minute, I've had sex?!?!?!?

[Gaijin von Snikbah]

Apparently not. I think you will be able to put at least 55 of those suckers in there.

[DanielTimothy]

I have a love child?

Wait a minute, I've had sex?!?!?!?

Wine Gum sex?

[Iun]

....Best Idea Ever.

[DanielTimothy]

....Best Idea Ever.

Well try to have sex with Wine Gums instead of shoving them in your mouth! ;)

Live feed anyone?

[demonmike04]

....Best Idea Ever.

No. Sex with marshmallows is the best idea ever.

[MoogleViper]

Wait a minute, I've had sex?!?!?!?

You mean you don't remember?

I feel insulted.

I'm sorry, I'll be quiet now.

[Iun]

You mean you don't remember?

I'm sorry, I'll be quiet now.


MoogleViper! Come back Moogle... I didn't mean what I said...:cry:

[MoogleViper]

[Iun]

Right, so far there have been over 100 bets on my Wine Gum Challenge on this and other forums!

I am going to do a live video feed for this, but I need help on how to set it up!

Do you have any sort of camera?

[The fish]

Do you have any sort of camera?

That usually helps...

Also have skype on so we can all shout encouraging remarks at you!

[Iun]

I have a DSLR (I'm a pro photographer see) and I can borrow a camera with video. Don't have Skype yet but will probably be sorting that out fairly soon.

[Charlie]

If you're planning on stuffing 100 Wine Gum's into your mouth make sure you have someone with you incase you start choking. Preferably trained with choking casualties and in CPR.

[Iun]

Yeah the person filming is going to be there, just in case.

[somme]

I prefer skittles myself.

[Cubechris]

17 gums! yes

[DanielTimothy]

Yeah, Skittles are the better sweet.

[Iun]
