Record breakers

[Thorin]

We started talking about old Fox shows at the office, which got me talking about Man vs Beast and its pilot with Kobayashi trying to eat faster than a grizzly bear: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgqbCq_sxmo

This led to a couple of videos about record breakers:

World's Fastest Pizza Maker and World's Fastest Pizza Eater: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsI2i__H4CU

World's Fastest Cup Stacker: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75cLKic112Q

Mind-blowing how fast some of those people move.

I just wonder what happens there, you know, in the mind sometimes. Does a guy just wake up one morning and say "I'm gonna eat pizza faster than anyone else in the world" or is it something that they notice and decide later to go pro with?
