The 4th of July is not only a celebration of the independence of our country, but it's also the day to see who can shove the most hot dogs down their throats!

We've all heard of Joey "Jaws" Chestnut...you know the guy that seems like he has a bottomless pit for a stomach?! Well, he took back his title and set a new record at the 2016 Nathan’s July Fourth hot dog eating contest in Coney Island on Monday.

Eating 70 hot dogs and buns in 10 minutes, Chestnut reclaimed his title that had been taken from him the year before by Matt Stonie...his first upset in 8 straight years. He also set a new record of the most ever eaten at this contest and won $10,000.

Wow...Just wonder what he felt like when he woke up today!?!
