Thread: The burger that nearly killed a man

Monster burger stops heart

A man in the US suffered a heart attack last Saturday while eating the aforementioned burger at the Heart Attack Cafe located in downtown Las Vegas.



This comically tragic story was the first of its kind at the restaurant, whose slogan ‘Taste Worth Dying for’ might need to be rethought after the man was taken out of the eatery by paramedics. Thankfully, he survived.

The infamous American eatery unapologetically serves up calorie-rich and fat-laden food. The burger in question costs ($11.10) and contains a 1.5 pound beef burger served with several slices of processed cheese and the option of 15 slices of bacon for an extra ($2.77).

Shockingly, this isn’t even the unhealthiest item on the menu. The Quadruple Bypass Burger features two pounds of meat, processed cheese and 20 bacon slices for an extra ($3.69). Other items on the menu include the butterfat milkshakes, ‘flatliner’ chips fried in pure lard, non-filtered cigarettes and ‘Fat Bastard’ brand wine.
