Peter Czerwinski (born Piotr Czerwinski; [3] November 30, 1985), better known by his stage name Furious Pete, [4] is a Canadian competitive eater and YouTuber. Czerwinski currently holds fourteen Guinness World Records in eating.
Peter Czerwinski was born November 30, 1985, in Toronto. [4] Both his parents had health issues. [5] As a teenager, he battled against anorexia nervosa, [4] and was hospitalized because of it at Toronto's The Hospital for Sick Children. Bodybuilding was a major factor in his recovery. [4]
Czerwinski has a slower digestion rate than the average person's. [4] His daily diet comprises nine balanced meals and he exercises daily. [4] Czerwinski became aware of his talent in eating after managing to beat an eating record. Thereafter, he decided to take on more eating-related challenges and post them on YouTube. [5] Having participated in more than 90 eating competitions, [4] Czerwinski holds fourteen Guinness World Records in competitive eating, including that for eating a whole raw onion in 43.53 seconds, [6] seventeen bananas in 2 minutes, fifteen hamburgers in 10 minutes, [4] 750 millilitres of olive oil in 60 seconds, [4] and 17 Jaffa Cakes in sixty seconds. [7] He also participated in season one of Canada's Got Talent. For his performance, he ate 5 hard boiled eggs, 3 pieces of Canadian bacon, 2 bananas, and a bag of milk in 51 seconds. [8] However, he did not make it past the Toronto Auditions.
A direct-to-DVD documentary film, The Story of Furious Pete, chronicling Czerwinski's life, screened at the Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival. [9]
The Furious "Pete" [10] – which consists of 20 pieces of bacon and 20 pieces of cheese, alongside a five-pound platter of fries – is named after him, after Czerwinski became the first person in 1,500 attempts to finish it. [5]
Czerwinski has successfully battled testicular cancer twice in the past, both times going into remission. On February 16 in 2017, he uploaded a video onto YouTube where he stated he was yet again battling cancer and it was testicular cancer, making this his third time fighting. [11] In January 2019, Czerwinski stated that the testicular cancer returned and had his second testicle surgically removed, requiring him to undergo testosterone replacement therapy for the rest of his life.
