A man who choked to death at a Voodoo Doughnuts shop in Denver was reportedly trying to wolf down a giant doughnut during a food-eating challenge.
Travis Malouff, 42, died Sunday while attempting to down a half-pound glazed doughnut. The cause of death was "asphyxia, due to obstruction of the airway," the Denver Office of the Medical Examiner said Monday morning.
Malouff was taking the shop's "Tex-Ass Challenge," which requires participants to consume the colossal doughnut the equivalent of six regular doughnuts within an 80-second time limit. Winners get a free meal and a button.

RIP DoughBoy
PLease to be respectful,, Thanks!
I hope the donut shop has a signed waiver in case of unfortunate event like this. It could cost them a lot of dough otherwise.

This place should only allow the professionals to take this challenge.
From now on, only cops can attempt this.

I hate those food eating contests.
For one, they waste food which I have always disliked.

Very sad, I guess he didn’t win the free meal and button.

Bread is the worse thing to have stuck in your throat. It gets all gooey and sticky.
Even a tracheotomy may not work.

I thought that’s why donuts have holes - so you can breathe through them.

Obviously you should leave this kind of thing to the professionals.

Respect?!?! That dude couldn’t get an 8 ounce glazed donut down in 80 seconds without turning himself off. That’s weak. The first rule of doing stupid shit is you’d better succeed at it or you will be the brunt of the rest of the worlds ridicule. I think there is even a section in the Redneck handbook and Cletus operating manual specifically devoted to this.
