You have to sign a waiver to eat this 8,000-calorie breakfast
For the person who can never decide what to order, the Hibernator might be your best bet, since it consists of every single item on the menu at England's Bear Grills restaurant.
Make sure you bring a pen, though, since you have to sign a waiver before digging into this 8,000-calorie behemoth of a breakfast. As Grub Street reports, the Hibernator consists of four fried eggs, eight "rashers" of bacon, eight sausages, four hash browns, four waffles, a cheese omelette made of four eggs, four pieces of fried bread, four pieces of toast, four pieces of black pudding, two huge scoops of beans, tomatoes, French fries, mushrooms, and to top it all off, a 32-ounce milkshake.
All that can be yours for just £19.95 ($32), plus your insurance co-pay for when you have to get admitted to the ER. So far, 20 brave souls have tried to tackle this monstrosity, but none has come close to finishing it — in fact, Bear Grills owner Mark Winder says customers "see it come out on the big platter all heaped high and start to cry."
