this is bigger than I thought it would be.

Since the beginning of time,  man has looked up at the stars and wondered

自古以來，人類就一直在仰望星空，並想知道

Is there a portion of ramen so large you could potentially die from a ramen overdose?

有沒有一部分拉麵的分量很大，你有可能因為拉麵過量而死？

Tucked away in Akihabara in Tokyo,  there's a ramen shop called Yarou ramen,

藏在東京秋葉原的一家拉麵店，名叫 "八郎拉麵"。

serving up a ridiculous portion known  only as Mega buta yarou ramen

Which literally translates as Mega pork ramen.

從字面上看，翻譯成Mega豬肉拉麵。

and it's the sort of portion that could  feed a family of four,

而它的分量可以養活一家四口。

with the bowl overflowing with over a kilogram of food.

Now, it's not something I'd ever normally attempt to eat,

現在，這不是我通常會嘗試吃的東西。

but this is my chance at getting  revenge against my friend Natsuki.

但這是我向我的朋友夏樹復仇的機會。

A few years ago we did the Wankosoba noodle challenge

幾年前，我們做了萬古蕎麥麵的挑戰。

- a challenge that involves eating  as many bowls of soba noodles as possible.

- 儘量多吃幾碗蕎麥麵的挑戰。

And he not only won, but walked away with the 10,000 yen bet we made.

而且他不僅贏了，還帶著我們下的1萬元賭注走了。

Before mocking me with his questionable rendition of we are the champions.

在用他的 "我們是冠軍 "的可疑演繹嘲笑我之前。

It was a bitter outcome and this is chance at redemption

這是一個苦澀的結果，這是救贖的機會

This is my chance at regaining my honor back.

This is a chance of getting my 10,00 yen back.

So let's go to Akihabara and let's get this shit done.

所以，我們去秋葉原，讓我們完成這個狗屎。

Oh my god, this is bigger than I thought it would be.

哦，我的上帝，這比我想象的要大。

我們有30分鐘的時間來吃這個。

And the first person to finish wins the bet.

This is one of the first time I've looked at dish  and not known where to even begin.

這是我第一次看菜，甚至不知道從何下手。

Almost straight away Natsuki and I embarked on two different strategies for tackling the mountain of ramen.

我和夏樹幾乎直接就開始了兩種不同的策略，來解決拉麵的山頭。

He's been eating beansprouts, I've been working my way through the pork.

他在吃豆芽，我在努力吃豬肉。

He tends to eat fast and get full quickly  so I reckon he'll get ahead

他吃得快，吃得也快，所以我估計他能吃得更快。

and in about 10 minutes, I just overtake him.

而在10分鐘內，我就超過了他。

I'm still at the beansprout stage after 15 minutes. This is getting worrying.

15分鐘後我還在豆芽階段。這讓人越來越擔心了。

'cause there is a pile of beansprouts the size of Spain on top.

因為上面有一堆西班牙那麼大的豆芽。

He's so gone ahead so he's taking 5 minutes rest.

他這麼走在前面，所以他要休息5分鐘。

and it barely looks like I've even touched my bowl.

I genuinely believed that, I thought I had a chance.

我真的相信，我以為我有機會。

I thought he gets full really quickly but he's still eating.

我以為他真的很快就能吃飽，但他還是在吃。

I don't know what I hate more, beansprout or you.

我不知道我更恨什麼，豆芽還是你。

It wasn't even staged for the purpose of having some kind of narrative structure.

它甚至不是為了有某種敘事結構而上演的。

I don't know what's going on - this has suddenly got quite weird.

我不知道發生了什麼事--這突然變得很奇怪。
