Edit: My Favorite

A very green rookie wrestler named Hulk Hogan toured Japan several times with Andre and witnessed the Giant’s alcohol consumption first hand. According to Hogan, Andre drank, at a minimum, a case of tall boys during each bus ride. When he finished a can Andre would belch, crush the can in his dinner-platter-sized hand, and bounce the empty off the back of Hogan’s head. Hogan learned to count each thunk, so he could anticipate when Andre was running low. Whenever the bus stopped, it was Hogan’s job to scamper off to the nearest store, buy as many cases of beer as he could carry, and make it back before the bus departed, a sight that never failed to make Andre roar his bassoon-like laugh.

At the rate of three minutes a 12oz beer it woud take him 19.9 minutes to finish edward 40 hands. My record is 20 minutes and I could barely move to go to the bathroom from the pain. This guy did it for 6 hours straight!

I can polish off an Edward 40 Hands game in about 15 minutes and still function, but I cannot even fathom continuing that pace for more than an hour and expecting to walk!

Good man! Actually time it next time and get back to me. I really wasn't going for time it just happened. I really would like to know how people on here stack up.
