What is it about these skinny people that theyre beating out larger, fatter people in these eating contests? How is that possible?

The theory holds that a large (re: fat) person has a layer of fat around the abdominal cavity that doesn’t allow the stomach to expand as needed during an eating competition. Sure the big guy has a bigger stomach at rest, but it can’t expand dramatically the way it needs to compared to an in-shape thinner person.
