Operation: Get Your Lem On Results
February 15th, 2010

There were some great submissions for Operation: Get Your Lem On, and we’ve found a winner!

But first, I’d like to give special recognition to forum member Tfaironpirate, who constructed this epic motion picture for his entry, in which he defeats James, LRR’s champion, but fails to win the overall challenge. Above and beyond, my friend, above and beyond.

Ultimately, though, it was CaptainLanky (Cokey on the forums) who prevailed, eating 16 lemon wedges in two minutes! Here’s proof:

Great work, everyone, and thanks for participating!

To see all of the entrants, check out the original Iron Stomach Challenge video on YouTube.

Operation: Get Your Lem On
January 27th, 2010

Posted by Tim

When life gives you lemons… Force your friends to eat a bunch of them really fast so that their teeth get all squidgy, like we did in this episode of the Iron Stomach Challenge:

Then, after that’s over and you’ve posted the video of it on the internet, encourage all of your fans to do the same thing!

In this Loading Ready Runners Operation, your task is to compete with Lemon Race winner James Turner, who was able to eat fourteen lemon wedges in two minutes.

If you think you’re up to it, we want you to film yourself eating as many lemon wedges as you can in two minutes. A lemon wedge is a quarter of a lemon. You must eat all of the flesh of the lemon wedge. The skin of the lemon must not be removed before you start.

Upload your video (which will preferably be a single shot so you don’t do any trickery with video cuts) to YouTube and post it as a video response to the original Lemon Race video on YouTube.

Whoever eats the most lemon wedges in two minutes will receive mad props and a medal on the forums!

This contest will remain open until midnight PST on Friday, February 12, 2010.

January 31: The first challenger has clocked in!

So this was entirely my brainchild. So if you hated it, go suck on an egg.

Basically the process went something like this:

1. While working a couple weeks ago I came across these very large (roughly 9′ long) cardboard tubes. I was instantly intriqued and my mind started to wander.

2. The first thing that came to my head was the wide shot of both Matt and Tim at a stand still, thats my favorite part of the video.

3. I then story boarded the rest of it and we went from there.

It took a lot longer to shoot than you would think. We are slow and lazy. Here are some behind the scene pictures mapping out how we actually got some of the shots.
