- Three, two, one, dumplings!

(dramatically sobbing)

- [Zach] Get in my belly!

It's dumpling time!

(Try Guys theme music)

- We are here at the world-famous Din Tai Fung

for the first ever Try Guys eating challenge.

- We are going to eat 400 dumplings today.

- That's right, the actual record is 373 dumplings

in 10 minutes set by Matt Stonie.

There's more of us, we're not gonna do it in 10 minutes

but we're gonna do our best.

- Joining us today is Mike Chen from Strictly Dumpling

who is here to help us eradicate that record.

- 'Cause we're all that and dimsum!

(Try Guys cheers)

(Try Guys awes) - Oh, and then dimsum!

- Do it, yeah!

- Yes, we're like Dude Perfect but we eat a lot!

(light playful music)

Today, I'm just trying to pull my weight.

I'm just trying to take 400 divided by four

and then just do 100.

Ah!

I just burped and farted at the same time.

- I'm so excited to eat so many dumplings.

I think today I can clear 100

but my goal is to beat Eugene.

I gotta take you down.

Look, I know that you can handle this

but I can handle this too.

I am hungover.

Oh my God!

Guys, this is a lot of dumplings.

- I'm really excited about this video.

I'm Korean so mukbangs came from Korean culture.

I think my goal is 150 today.

- Oh no!

- [Ned] So that means your goal is 151.

(Keith and Eugene laughing)

- I feel like I'm about to have a heart attack.

- My channel's name is called Strictly Dumpling

so you guys know I love dumplings.

I had a dumpling challenge in Japan.

6.5 pounds of dumpling.

I finished like 3/4 of it.

So I'm here seeking sort of a dumpling revenge

on its brethren, on its much smaller brethren.

Has anybody died eating too much food?

- Today, I'm on doctor's orders to avoid inflammatory foods

so as a happy compromise, I'm just gonna take it easy.

I'm just gonna have some fun, savor the flavor.

I'm here for you.

- Seems like there's two things

in eating competitions, right?

Speed and endurance.

Since we're not really doing a true eating contest,

we're gonna try to separate those two parts.

Part one, we're gonna get 200 dumplings

delivered to the table and see how many we can eat

in the fastest time possible.

- Each tray will have 10 dumplings

so we'll track our progress

by stacking trays on top of each other.

- And then after that, for round two,

we'll be a little more leisurely with our eating

and see how many we can top off that initial 50.

- Does it hurt your stomach?

- Yeah. - Yes!

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a lot of food.

- It's like Thanksgiving times 20.

(gong bangs)

- Oh, boy! - Oh!

- Oh my gosh. - Oh!

- Oh! - Oh my goodness.

- Ooh! - Oh my goodness.

Oh my goodness. - Ooh!

- Oh my god!

- It's like a beauty pageant. - Oh my god!

- [Everyone] Whoa!

- [Zach] Oh my god!

Oh my god! (Try Guys oohing)

- Wow, thank you. - Wow!

- Each of us except for Zach have 50 dumplings.

Zach, you have--

- [Zach] I don't know, maybe 10 or 20.

- I could give 10.

The four of us are gonna see how long it takes each of us

to eat 50 dumplings.

- Gentlemen, are you ready to get your dump on?

- Yeah. - Let's do it!

- Commencing dumpling eating in three, two, one, go!

(Ned cheers)

- Oh my goodness! - Oh yeah!

- [Ned] Look at that!

- How'd you already eat one?

They're flaming hot!

- Wow! - Eugene, slow down!

- Oh, they're so hot!

- Oh, they're really hot. - Oh, they're too hot.

- They're too hot, they're too hot.

- I like to savor the first few.

- They're too hot!

- Why are they so hot? - They're too hot!

- They're too hot.

Ah, so hot! - This is very hot.

- [Keith] It's so hot, it's so hot.

- [Zach] I think they could see the steam.

These are fresh.

- Are you guys one of those people that

when the food is too hot,

you spit it out or you go ooh, (exhales deeply)

until you swallow it? - No, you do the reverse cool.

(breathes heavily)

- I do the Asian thing where I just swallow it

and my esophagus burns.

- There you go!

- I actually kind of love the feeling of burnt skin

on the roof of your mouth.

- What?

- You know what I'm talking about?

Like after you burn the roof of your mouth,

you have that little dangly skin

you get to play with with your tongue?

- Ah, I've got a runny nose!

- It's to a ho-lo-rous level

where I can just pop the whole thing.

- Yeah, my mouth is already burnt so badly.

- I guess I could try that. - That I'm just going for it.

Done. - Oh dang, Eugene!

- Damn!

All right, well my 10 are gone.

(bell rings) - Let's go, baby!

(bell rings)

- We should've added this as a temperature challenge too.

- I had no idea it was gonna be like this.

- This is so sad, I'm eating my favorite food so quickly.

- There's something so cool about a soup dumpling.

It's its own cooking device.

It's like a little hot tub--

- I'm done. - The tub is its own body.

- Oh my gosh, Eugene!

- True dumpling was created in Shanghai

in a place called Nanyang.

It's great because the soup, most people think,

how do you get the soup in there?

It's like magical soup dumpling elves!

Well, it's congealed whole.

When you steam it, it dissolves

and makes this wonderful soup.

- Boom! - Oh, thank you!

That's teamwork, baby!

- This is the very best day of my life.

This is so fun. - 20!

- You're already almost done, Eugene?

- Yeah, so I'm in my 40s.

- Tortoise and The Hare.

Maybe you should take a lap and hang out, take a nap,

let us catch up to you.

- Wow! - This is just a competition

against the heat.

- Eugene is crushing this.

He's got two more.

- Wow, Eugene, that's your last one?

(bell rings)

- Wow and time. - Wow!

- Oh, that was too long.

(bell rings) - Boom!

Corn buddy, team corn buddy, done!

- Oh my god!

- You guys have 21? - 20 left, yeah.

- Let's see who can win between you two.

- Oh god, Ned, just take your time, man.

I'ma slow it down.

You don't need to rush.

- I've never thought this was a competition.

It was kind of a surprise for me.

- So the original history of dumplings,
